Learn About Instagram Proxies And How To Unblock Instagram
Instagram proxy has become popular in recent times. Proxies are a great way to hide the IP address. The users using proxies can hide their location and it becomes unknown to their respective internet service provider.
How to Unblock Instagram With a Proxy?
One can use proxies to unblock an Instagram account. These proxies can be used to change the IP address so Instagram is unable to flag the account. Through Instagram unblock proxy, one can also create multiple accounts from the same device. This makes unblock on Instagram simple. You must learn what is Instagram proxy and how to use it if you want your Instagram unblocked. This article will further help you understand more about the ways of Instagram's how to unblock.
What is Instagram Proxies?
Instagram proxies are similar to all the regular Private proxies. One will be able to manage several Instagram accounts through an Instagram proxy. This would definitely help businesses who want to create several accounts for marketing purposes. People who have brands and businesses create more than one account to reach a wider audience. This will improve communication with the target audience and have more effective business deals and marketing strategies.
Instagram proxies will act as a catalyst between the users and the internet. The data that will be passed, sent, and received will pass through the Instagram proxy. This will conceal the IP address from the internet service provider. The only difference is that Instagram proxies are optimized and are for Instagram use only.
Work Of Instagram Proxies?
People use Instagram bots and Instagram automation to increase their visibility on the platform. They create multiple accounts on Instagram. These Instagram proxies will prevent the multiple accounts created by the users to get discovered. This will further prevent the Instagram account ban. You can buy Instagram proxy from a trusted service provider to get started. You must get a proxy if you are utilizing bots on Instagram. Instagram proxies will help in smooth Instagram login unblocked online usage.

Unblock instagram
Do you need the proxy to unblock Instagram?
For Instagram login unblocked online, you might need or not need proxies. Instagram has a set of terms and conditions that all Instagram users should follow. If you perform certain actions, you can get blocked from doing the activity. This can include the follow and unfollow block, user account blocks, and upload blocks. If you get action blocks on Instagram, you may not need a proxy. The solution for such a problem is that the user must leave their account for a while and avoid the blocks' actions. However, if you have several accounts on Instagram, you might need an Instagram proxy online.
Instagram issues various types of blocks
There are multiple types of blocks that a user can face on Instagram. Below are some of the most common issues on Instagram-
Blocked Personal Instagram Account
A user can face that their personal account has been blocked for many reasons. If the IP address is considered suspicious or malicious, access to Instagram could be denied to the user as it would go against the platform's terms and conditions. A proxy will help in hiding the IP address from Instagram and the user will be able to access their blocked account.
Blocked Locations for Instagram
Many locations do not give access to Instagram. In such a case, a user can use proxies to hide their location from the service provider and get access to Instagram.
Instagram Business Account
Sometimes for product promotions, many business owners create several Instagram accounts to reach out to a wider audience. Creating multiple accounts on Instagram is an offense and the accounts could get blocked. However, there is no denying that creating multiple accounts is great for business. There through proxies, Instagram login unblocked online is easy and simple.
Types of Proxies for Instagram Automation
There are several types of proxies for Instagram automation. To choose the best Instagram proxy online, check out the types of proxies.
Residential proxies
The residential proxies are those proxies that will give IP addresses that are provided by internet service providers to the homeowners. These proxies will provide extremely legitimate addresses that are attached to a physical address. The benefit of these Instagram residential proxies is that they offer a more high anonymity level. Also, people who use residential proxies witness a low block rate.
Mobile Proxies
Mobile proxies will be offered on all the portable devices that will have access to the internet through mobile internet. One will be able to connect to these proxies and hide the IP address.
Private Proxies
Private proxies will act as an intermediary between the internet connection and the client. When a user will apply with a private proxy, the client will exclusively use an IP address.
How to Unblock Instagram Using Proxies?
Below are the ways to Instagram login unblocked online-
Blocked Personal Instagram Account
Proxies can be used to unblock Instagram account by hiding the IP address so that the account does not get flagged.
Blocked Locations for Instagram

For many, carrying with a round in the chamber is a step that hasn't been taken yet. The reasons vary, but it's definitely an issue for a lot of people. In this article, I am going to discuss a simple thing that you can do to ease your mind.
If you came here to say something along the lines of "Carrying with an empty chamber is stupid" or "Why even carry if your pipe is empty?", save it. This article isn't for you.
If you're still reading, I hope that you're here for the tip in this article.
First, keep this in mind: For a modern handgun to fire, the trigger needs to be depressed. For the following example, I am going to be referring to Glock pistols as the example, since they have no external safety (aside from the trigger safety).
If you don't already, start to carry your firearm with the trigger in the forward position, shown below:
At the end of the day when you take your firearm out of your holster to put it away, chances are the trigger is still in that position. If it is, congrats, you did not 'experience' a negligent discharge. The word 'experience' is in quotes because we are under the assumption that a round was not in the chamber, rendering a negligent discharge impossible unless you racked the slide before the trigger was accidentally depressed.
Now, if you ever unholster your firearm and see the trigger pulled back, we have a real problem. Again, if your trigger is in the position shown below when you unholster, you need to take a serious look at your carry setup. Something or someone is pulling your trigger back:
If you are using a proper holster (by our standards, one that is molded to your particular firearm) and follow all of the safety protocols, a depress of the trigger should never occur if the firearm remains in the holster.
Another area of concern is holstering the firearm. This is rather obsolete given the scenerio above, but I'll touch on it anyway. Holstering is something that everyone should practice on a regular basis. If you are still concerned with holstering with a round in the chamber, try the same thing as we just discussed. If you holster and unholster, and your trigger is still forward, you're good to go. The main concern with holstering would be getting a piece of clothing inside the trigger guard, or a part of the holster itself. With the right setup and continued practice, this will become a non-issue.
I hope that this article helps at least one person who has been hesitant to carry with a round in the chamber. We're all on different levels of carrying, and it's nothing to be ashamed of.

Moment distribution method
The moment distribution method (not to be confused with moment redistribution) is a structural analysis method for statically indeterminate beams and frames developed by Hardy Cross. It was published in 1930 in an ASCE journal. The method only accounts for flexural effects and ignores axial and shear effects. From the 1930s until computers began to be widely used in the design and analysis of structures, the moment distribution method was the most widely practiced method.

- 3 Example

In the moment distribution method, every joint of the structure to be analysed is fixed so as to develop the fixed-end moments. Then each fixed joint is sequentially released and the fixed-end moments (which by the time of release are not in equilibrium) are distributed to adjacent members until equilibrium is achieved. The moment distribution method in mathematical terms can be demonstrated as the process of solving a set of simultaneous equations by means of iteration.
The moment distribution method falls into the category of displacement method of structural analysis.
In order to apply the moment distribution method to analyse a structure, the following things must be considered.
Fixed end moments
Fixed end moments are the moments produced at member ends by external loads when the joints are fixed.
The flexural stiffness (EI/L) of a member is represented as the product of the modulus of elasticity (E) and the second moment of area (I) divided by the length (L) of the member. What is needed in the moment distribution method is not the exact value but the ratio of flexural stiffness of all members.
When a joint is released and begins to rotate under the unbalanced moment, resisting forces develop at each member framed together at the joint. Although the total resistance is equal to the unbalanced moment, the magnitudes of resisting forces developed at each member differ by the members' flexural stiffness. Distribution factors can be defined as the proportions of the unbalanced moments carried by each of the members. In mathematical terms, distribution factor of member framed at joint is given as:
where n is the number of members framed at the joint.
When a joint is released, balancing moment occurs to counterbalance the unbalanced moment which is initially the same as the fixed-end moment. This balancing moment is then carried over to the member's other end. The ratio of the carried-over moment at the other end to the fixed-end moment of the initial end is the carryover factor.
Determination of carryover factors
Let one end (end A) of a fixed beam be released and applied a moment while the other end (end B) remains fixed. This will cause end A to rotate through an angle. Once the magnitude of developed at end B is found, the carryover factor of this member is given as the ratio of over :
In case of a beam of length L with constant cross-section whose flexural rigidity is,
therefore the carryover factor
Once a sign convention has been chosen, it has to be maintained for the whole structure. The traditional engineer's sign convention is not used in the calculations of the moment distribution method although the results can be expressed in the conventional way. In the BMD case, the left side moment is clockwise direction and other is anticlockwise direction so the bending is positive and is called sagging.
Framed structures with or without sidesway can be analysed using the moment distribution method.
The statically indeterminate beam shown in the figure is to be analysed.
- Members AB, BC, CD have the same span.
- Flexural rigidities are EI, 2EI, EI respectively.
- Concentrated load of magnitude acts at a distance from the support A.
- Uniform load of intensity acts on BC.
- Member CD is loaded at its midspan with a concentrated load of magnitude.
In the following calculations, counterclockwise moments are positive.
Fixed end moments
Flexural stiffness and distribution factors
The flexural stiffness of members AB, BC and CD are, and, respectively. Therefore, expressing the results in repeating decimal notation:
The distribution factors of joints A and D are and.
The carryover factors are, except for the carryover factor from D (fixed support) to C which is zero.
Numbersare balanced moments; arrows ( ) represent the carry-over of moment from one end to the other end of a member.* Step 1: As joint A is released, balancing moment of magnitude equal to the fixed end moment develops and is carried-over from joint A to joint B.* Step 2: The unbalanced moment at joint B now is the summation of the fixed end moments, and the carry-over moment from joint A. This unbalanced moment is distributed to members BA and BC in accordance with the distribution factors and. Step 2 ends with carry-over of balanced moment to joint C. Joint A is a roller support which has no rotational restraint, so moment carryover from joint B to joint A is zero.* Step 3: The unbalanced moment at joint C now is the summation of the fixed end moments, and the carryover moment from joint B. As in the previous step, this unbalanced moment is distributed to each member and then carried over to joint D and back to joint B. Joint D is a fixed support and carried-over moments to this joint will not be distributed nor be carried over to joint C.* Step 4: Joint B still has balanced moment which was carried over from joint C in step 3. Joint B is released once again to induce moment distribution and to achieve equilibrium.* Steps 5 - 10: Joints are released and fixed again until every joint has unbalanced moments of size zero or neglectably small in required precision. Arithmetically summing all moments in each respective columns gives the final moment values.
- Moments at joints determined by the moment distribution method
- The conventional engineer's sign convention is used here, i.e. positive moments cause elongation at the bottom part of a beam member.
For comparison purposes, the following are the results generated using a matrix method. Note that in the analysis above, the iterative process was carried to >0.01 precision. The fact that the matrix analysis results and the moment distribution analysis results match to 0.001 precision is mere coincidence.
- Moments at joints determined by the matrix method
The complete shear and bending moment diagrams are as shown. Note that the moment distribution method only determines the moments at the joints. Developing complete bending moment diagrams require additional calculations using the determined joint moments and internal section equilibrium.
- SFD and BMD
Result via displacements method
As the Hardy Cross method provides only approximate results, with a margin of error inversely proportionate to the number of iterations, it is important to have an idea of how accurate this method might be. With this in mind, here is the result obtained by using an exact method: the displacement method
For this, the displacements method equation assumes the following form:
For the structure described in this example, the stiffness matrix is as follows:
The equivalent nodal force vector:
Replacing the values presented above in the equation and solving it for leads to the following result:
Hence, the moments evaluated in node B are as follows:
The moments evaluated in node C are as follows:

Carbon/silicon carbide composites are tested at surface temperature above 2000 K in a high-enthalpy nitrogen flow at 2000 Pa, generated by an inductively coupled Plasmatron. Their altered surface is analyzed using scanning electron microscopy. Comparisons with experiments in air plasma at similar heat flux and pressure conditions suggest that the sole presence of nitrogen prevents the occurrence of temperature jump effect observed for this class of materials in flows containing oxygen reactants. Optical emission spectroscopy measurements near the surface confirm a lower volatility for the material tested in nitrogen compared to air.

Observaciones sobre la historia natural, geografia, agricultura, poblacion y frutos del Reyno de Valencia
Antonio José Cavanilles
Editor: Madrid, Imprenta Real
Year of edition: 1795
The Observations on the natural history, geography, agriculture, population, and fruits of the Kingdom of Valencia, written during the last decade of the 18th century, is the less botanic work of Cavanilles. Inspired by the enlightenment, the book is a methodical presentation of the plants and crops of the territory of the Valencia kingdom. It is one of the geographical works, results of the typical study trips around Europe that contributed to the formation of scientific positivism of the 19th century.
The naturalist traveller did not talk about the cities and the citizens. Even if he did not talk only about the natural environment – he also admired human art – the most important issue of the work is the description of the flora, agriculture and soils of the kingdom divided into four parts. The final index, with places and plants, shows the impressive completeness of the Cavanilles' book. It is still considered a classic to understand the economic history and the geography of the Valencia region.

There is really no need to use any quadratics or roots.
Hint: Consider the same problem on the plain number line first.
How do you find the number between $2$ and $5$ which is twice as far from $2$ as from $5$?
You take their difference, which is $3$. Now splitting this distance by ratio $2:1$ means the first distance is two thirds, the second is one third, so we get
$$ 4 = 2 + \frac{2}{3}(5-2)$$
It works completely the same with geometric points (using vector operations), just linear interpolation: Call the result $R$, then
$$ R = P + \frac{2}{3}(Q-P)$$ so in your case we get $$ R= (0,-1) + \frac 2 3 (3,3) = (2,1)$$
Why does this work for 2D-distances as well, even if there seem to be roots involved? Because vector length behaves linearly after all! (meaning $|t \cdot \vec a|=t|\vec a|$ for any positive scalar $t$)
Edit: We'll try to divide a distance $s$ into parts $a$ and $b$ such that $a$ is twice as long as $b$. So it's $a = 2b$ and we get $$s = a + b = 2b + b = 3b$$ $$\Leftrightarrow b = \frac 1 3 s \Rightarrow a = \frac 2 3 s$$ That's where the fractions come from.
share|improve this answer
The last equality should read with $|t|$. – user21436 Aug 28 '12 at 9:03
Your method does seem interesting and simple – MistyD Aug 28 '12 at 9:28
You said.. "means the first distance is two thirds, the second is one third" could you please explain that, – MistyD Aug 28 '12 at 9:35
If the required point is $(x,y)$, then because we're looking at a straight line, $x$ must be twice as far from the x-coordinate of $P$ as it is from the x-coordinate of $Q$. That is, it's twice as far from 0 as it is from 3. Since it's in $[0,3]$, we must have $x=2$. A similar argument for $y$ gives $y=1$.
No distance formula, square roots or quadratic equations are required.
share|improve this answer
1) Find the equation of the line.
The equation of the line is $y=x-1$.
2) Write your condition by making use of distance formula. Use $1$.
You need: $(x,x-1)$ such that $$2\sqrt{(3-x)^2+(2-(x-1))^2}=\sqrt{(x-0)^2+(x-1-(-1))^2}$$
You get a quadratic. Solving which you have $x=2,6$. But, $x \in [0,3] \Rightarrow x=2$.
share|improve this answer
So I get $y=\frac{2x}{3} -1$ How would I add a condition using this equation in the distance formula? – MistyD Aug 28 '12 at 8:29
Dear Downvoter, can you please explain? – user21436 Aug 28 '12 at 8:30
_USER_ Since a point we are searching for lies on the line, it should be of the form $(x, \frac{2x}{3}-1)$. Now you have distance constraint. Write it out. – user21436 Aug 28 '12 at 8:33
_USER_ I have updated my answer. The equation of your line was wrong. – user21436 Aug 28 '12 at 8:48
_USER_ I am NOT the downvoter; but I gave serious consideration to downvoting both your solution and PooyaM's. You are both nuking mosquitoes. Distance formula and quadratics? To divide a baby little line segment into equal thirds? You can do better! – user22805 Aug 28 '12 at 22:01
Consider that point has coordinates $H(x_H,y_H)$
Distance "$d$" between $(x_A,y_A)$ and $(x_B,y_B)$ is:
I:From the questions constraints we have:
$\sqrt{(x_H-0)^2+(y_H-(-1))^2} = 2\times \sqrt{(x_H-3)^2+(y_H-2)^2} $
$x_H^2+(y_H+1)^2=4\times (x_H-3)^2 +4\times(y_H-2)^2$
II:$(x_H,y_H)$ is on the same line connecting P to Q:
So $Slope_{HP}=Slope_{QH}$
$Slope_{AB}=(y_B - y_A)/(x_B-x_A)$
So: $(y_H-(-1)) /(x_H-0) =(2-y_H)/(3-x_H) $
Then we should solve for x and y from the 2 variable 2 equations we derived:
From II : $x_H=y_H+1$
plugging this into I yields: $x_H^2=4(x_H-3)^2$ two answers:
$x_H=2x_H-6 \Rightarrow x_H=6,y_H=5 \chi$ Because It is not between P and Q
$x_H=-2x_H+6 \Rightarrow x_H=2, y_H=1 \checkmark$
share|improve this answer
Awesome solution clear and concise. Thanks _USER_ – MistyD Aug 28 '12 at 8:46
The parametric equation of the line joinining $P$ and $Q$ is $$ \vec{OR}=\vec{OP}+t(\vec{OQ}-\vec{OP})=(0,-1)+t(3,3)=(3t,3t-1) $$ where $R$ is its generic point. The parameter $t$ is not the euclidean distance, yet it is a linear reparametrization of the euclidean distance on the line. Thus, since $R=P$ when $t=0$ and $R=Q$ when $t=1$, the point in question is that for which $$ |t|=|2(t-1)| \quad\text{and}\quad 0

In descriptions of grinding and the Harlem Shake, twerk occurs with great regularity. The verb means "to move one's buttocks in a suggestive way." It has not yet made its way into OED and perhaps never will (let us hope so), but its origin hardly poses a problem: twerk must be a blend of twist (or twitch) and work (or jerk), a close relative of such verbs as squirm (possibly a blend of dialectal squir "to throw with a jerk" and worm) and twirl (? twist + whirl). When blends are coined "in plain sight" — as happened to brunch, motel, and Eurasia — no one has questions about their descent. Nowadays, blending has become a tiresome custom, and the stodgy products of grafting one word on another are usually as transparent as Texaco or Amtrak and equally inspiring. But no one can prove that twirl is indeed a sum of twist and whirl. Its origin will forever remain "unknown." Be that as it may, twerk does look like a blend, even though we don't know who, where, and when launched it into the linguistic space of North America.

The new IFHE Digest 2019 has been published by The International Federation
of Hospital Engineering (IFHE). Our Development Manager Petri Pelkonen and Managing Director Timo Ohtonen have wrote an article: Important information about operating rooms and their electrical safety.
With this article, Mr. Ohtonen and Mr. Pelkonen wanted to point out the importance of insulation monitoring in saving lives and protecting valuable equipment in medical G2 premises. Actually Mr. Ohtonen wrote his first article about electrical safety in IFHE Digest in 2017. The article aroused much international interest towards electrical safety and insulation monitoring technology. He was surprised how little people knew about insulation monitoring in operating rooms.
Why the insulation monitoring is so important?
The leakage of electrical current can cause a fatal electric shock without any visible signs. It is difficult to prove it as a cause of death. Finnish authorities and hospital engineers are well aware of this risk. Finland has been a pioneer in the electrical safety of operating rooms. No operation will be performed in Finnish operating rooms if insulation monitoring is not in use. An insulation monitoring system has been mandatory in all operating rooms in Finland since 1980s.
The insulation level monitoring system functions like this:
1. The electric power network of the operating room is separated from electrical grid with a medical isolation transformer.
2. The insulation level monitoring system monitors all the electrical devices connected behind this transformer.
3. The equipment indicates the faults and problems before dangerous situations arise.
A residual-current device that switches the electricity off does not give a warning – insulation level monitoring is therefore needed
Electrical safety requirements set for operating rooms are observed in Finland. The insulation level monitoring system controls each socket and device. As soon as a problem occurs, the system gives an alarm before a dangerous situation arises.
In many countries, the situation is different. Operating rooms may only have a residual-current device that switches the electricity off when a device breaks down. That is not enough.
Electrical damages in operating rooms are an invisible danger that is not generally known. The purchase of equipment monitoring electrical safety would only constitute a small part of the overall costs of an operating room. Insulation level monitoring equipment may be operable for as long as 30 years. It may also be possible to install new generation equipment on top of an old system. It is noteworthy that the proactive monitoring system decreases technical work and ensures that operations are not interrupted. This brings significant cost savings.
Standards regulate electrical installations in medical facilities
The European and national standards regulate electrical installations and the operation of devices in medical facilities. Operating rooms are classified as G2 medical facilities. In Europe, these facilities require a specific IT system as well as monitoring equipment for the insulation space related to the IT system.
Safety brings savings
Besides safety, it all comes down to costs to a large extent. When problems are detected at an early stage, hazardous situations during operations can be prevented. This ensures that the operating room and equipment are efficiently deployed all the time and unnecessary downtime can be avoided. The personnel work more productively and the service life of surgical equipment is extended. This creates major cost savings.

text: The main purpose of controlling the distillation process is to maintain the composition of the products in an intended specification in order to optimize operating costs and meet market requirements. Line analyzers and laboratory analysis are generally used for composition information. However, such alternatives are expensive, do not provide information in real time and are not always feasible or available. In this context, soft sensors emerge as a cheaper alternative. The aim of this work is to develop a soft sensor to infer online the ethanol content in the products of a batch distillation process of watermelon wine, based on temperature measurements. The developed model consists in a multilayer perceptron artificial neural network with one hidden layer. The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm was used to optimize the weights. In order to train and validating the ANN, real distillation data of water-alcohol binary mixtures with initial compositions similar to the watermelon wine used. The simulation was also validated with real data of wine distillations. The RMSE was applied in the performance evaluation of the model and its result was 0.029 in mass fraction, showing the feasibility of its use as a soft sensor.

The Whispers of Nemesis – The Fifth Greek Detective Mystery
The Whispers of Nemesis takes enigmatic investigator Hermes Diaktoros to the wintry mountains of northern Greece.
As snow falls in the tiny village of Vrisi a coffin is unearthed and broken open. But to the astonishment of the mourners at the graveside, the remains inside the coffin have been transformed, and as news of the bizarre discovery spreads through the village like forest fire it sets tongues wagging and heads shaking.
Then, in the shadow of the shrine of St Fanourios (patron saint of lost things), a body is found, buried under the fallen snow – a body whose identity only deepens the mystery around the exhumed remains. There's talk of witchcraft, and the devil's work – but it seems the truth, behind both the body and the coffin, may be far stranger than the villagers' wildest imaginings.
Drawn to the mountains by a wish to see an old and dear friend, Hermes finds himself embroiled in the mysteries of Vrisi, as well as the enigmatic last will and testament of Greece's most admired modern poet. The Whispers of Nemesis is a story of desperate measures and long-kept secrets, of murder and immortality and of pride coming before the steepest of falls.

 1. Jessie says:
 Hi!
 I'm using your tutorial to create a tree in my database. I entered the loadTreeview code using my data, but when I tried to open the form, I get the following error:
 Run-time error '2465': Application-defined or object-defined error
 When I click "Debug", it highlights the following in your code:
 set tv=forms(frm_TreeView_Example").treeReqs.Object
 It seems the ".treeReqs.Object" isn't being recognized by my system. How do I change this?
 Thanks!

 Hi Jessie and welcome to my blog.
 I recently found out that not all combinations of Windows/Access will automatically add the reference to the treeview, when the treeview object is first inserted in a form (like it is done in my video).
 So start by checking your references, and make sure a reference is set to
 "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6)"
 If it does not occur in your list, try browsing for it, its usually installed in:
 "C:\Windows\System32\mscomctl.ocx"
 Hope that helps, and best of luck with your project.

 Hi
 I have the same problem as Jessie did but am still slightly lost.
 Unfortunately my programming knowledge is pretty basic and only goes as far as I have learnt for other adhoc stuff I have done, now that I am doing a treeview for the first time I am unsure how to make sure a referent is set to 'Microsoft Windows Common Controls'. Is this something I would do in the code or in the menu options somewhere.
 Apologies for the stupid question, I have tried googling to find out but to no avail!
 Many thanks

 😀 Hi!
 I have a MS Access database with a Treeview control in a form. The application runs fine in my client machines but I'm using a 64bits Office 2010 to mantain it. As the control is not supported in the 64bit version of Office, I do not even open that form. Is there some workaround to this problem should I have to really modify something in the Treeview control with my MS Office 2010 64bit edition?
 Thanks!

 Hi
 I tried to modify the example to present arabic data in the children nodes but it comes as ?????
 Need your help and support please
 Many thanks
 - TheSmileyCoder says:
 Hi Samer
 In design view, try right clicking the treeview, select "TreeCtrl Object" and then "Properties". In here there is a font tab, where you can see the fonts available. To be honest I don't know if that allows or does not allow you to use arabic letters. I have never tried using arabic letters, and don't even know how you guys manage to type them in a normal textbox.
 Best of luck with your project.
 - hello Samer,
 have you ever find a solution to your problem? coz i have the same problem but not "????", it shows garbage instead.

 Hi I appreciate you providing this tutorial. I have a table with data of my own in which I am trying to get this to work but for whatever reason it won't run with the addChildren call within the first Do While Not loop
 addChildren tv, nodX, empData, empData!Name
 my first node works and creates the root name where mine is equal to 0 which i have here:
 Set nodX = tv.Nodes.Add(, , , empData!Name)
 I will copy and paste my code which is very similar to yours but when i run it I receive:
 Run-time error '13':
 Type mismatch
 when i click debug it highlights the addChildren call which I have provided above. Here is my code below that I have completed. Thanks again for your help.

 Hi Perseus.
 Looking at your code, I am guessing that empDate!Name is NOT a numeric field. The AddChildren routine as it is currently is expecting a Long as the last argument. The definition for the AddChildren reads:
 Private Sub addChildren(tv As TreeView, nodParent As Node, empData As DAO.Recordset, lngParentID As Long)
 As the lngParentID argument you are passing empDate!Name in this line:
 addChildren tv, nodX, empData, empData!Name
 I am a bit confused. Are you trying to load more than 1 organisation as well as their employees?

 Hi. Thank you so much for responding to my question. I am trying to create a demo tree view with employees and their directs. For example: John Doe is the root and then Jim Beam is his direct, then he has 2 directs, and then those 2 have directs of their own.

You now have a second column chart that shows the relative abundance of alewife eggs, larvae, and juveniles in each salinity zone for each month. Adjust the column fills if necessary.
- When are spawning adults most abundant?
- When are eggs most abundant?
- When are larvae most abundant?
- When are juveniles most abundant?
- When are adults most abundant?
- Are any of these life stages more abundant in certain salinity zones?
For the Winyah Bay alewife example, adults and spawning adults are most abundant in March, April and May; eggs are most abundant in March, April and May; larvae are most abundant in March, April, May and June; juveniles are abundant from April through November. Notice that all life stages of alewife are absent from December through February. Different life stages of alewife appear to have different salinity preferences. Alewife eggs and larvae are found only in salinities of 0 - 0.5 ppt. Juveniles are also confined to this salinity zone during April, May, June, and July; but are found in the 0.5 - 25 ppt salinity zone between August and November, and in the > 25 ppt zone between September and November. Alewife adults are found in all three salinity zones, but spawning adults are only found in the 0 - 0.5 ppt zone.

SkyTrac Systems Introduces High Resolution Data for 1-Second Position Reporting
SkyTrac Systems has introduced High Resolution Data (HRD), a feature that provides highly accurate 1- second position reporting. The feature helps validate compliance with a variety of regulations and laws, including noise abatement procedures, restricted airspace, altitude restriction, prohibited airspace, military operations areas or international boundaries. HRD also helps with highly accurate and automated billing data that is easily integrated with current invoicing systems.
This feature utilizes unique data compression algorithms to supply high-fidelity positional data for extreme accuracy. The algorithms also ensure cost effectiveness in data transmission. The results of an aircraft's flight path and total distance flown can be viewed in SkyWeb, SkyTrac's web-based mapping and reporting system, and the feature has no effect on existing flight following systems.
"We are very excited about the possibilities this presents for the aviation community, as our tests have demonstrated just how accurate and valuable this feature really is," comments SkyTrac president and CEO Malachi Nordine. "More and more operators are expressing a need for high fidelity flight data and now SkyTrac can provide them with just that."

A fried egg is a food made from an egg fried whole with minimal accompaniment. They are traditionally eaten for breakfast, lunch or tea in English-speaking countries, but may be eaten at other times of the day in other cultures. Fried eggs are distinguished from other forms of eggs cooked in a frying pan, such as scrambled eggs and omelettes, in that the white and yolk are kept distinct rather than beaten or mixed together.
In 1991, Harry Potter was in charge of frying the eggs for Dudley Dursleys birthday. In 1992, Vernon Dursley had remains of fried eggs in his moustache while he was yelling at Harry. Later that year, Ron commented "You could have fried an egg on your face. You'd better hope Creevey doesn't meet Ginny, or they'll be starting a Harry Potter Fan Club," after seeing Harry's reaction to his singing Valentine from Ginny.

Sumitomo started its business in 17th century Kyoto, where Masatomo Sumitomo opened a shop selling books and medicines. Masatomo wrote a book titled Monjuin Shiigaki, in which he clarified the basics of business. Masatomo's words in that book constitute the basis of the Sumitomo philosophy.
At about the same time, Masatomo's brother-in-law, Riemon Soga, was running a copper refining business and a copper workshop (under the name Izumiya) in Kyoto. After repeated trial and error, he finally developed technology for separating silver from unrefined copper, by applying technology he had learned from Europeans.

Stratford Harbour subdivision's engineers of the 1960's may have overlooked the hazards associated with the waterfront subdivision's sheer cliffs that rise as high as 150-feet above the waters of the Potomac River and the Nomini. Storms have toppled pre-Bay Act homes over the edge of the tall cliffs and some homeowners have actually moved their houses to the landward side of streets where erosion has been most extreme.
During a work session on April 23, the Westmoreland Planning Commission reviewed applications for remedial action brought by a group of Stratford Harbour waterfront home owners. The Monument Drive properties are but a short distance upstream of the yard from which a woman in September 2010 sustained severe injuries when the land at the
top of that Potomac River cliff gave way.
Pre-Bay Act homes were routinely built dangerously close to the edges of those eroding cliffs. During this Monday's Planning Commission discussion, county officials and engineers acknowledged the original subdivision architects' failure to take erosion into appropriate account when laying out the lots.
County Planner Charlie Wrightson explained the Chesapeake Bay Act exception applicants need to improve the grading of those cliff top homes. The six dwellings are described as being 60, 65, 80 feet from cliff tops that are in immediate danger of giving way.
"The bank is deteriorated from upland erosion and sliding," Wrightson told the Commissioners.
Commission Chair John Felt is himself a Stratford Harbour resident. He explained that free-flowing springs in those Stratford cliffs contribute greatly to the ongoing erosion hazards. Grading remediation would begin near the rear of existing structures and would extend to a short distance above the base of the eroding cliff. Vegetation would be installed to stabilize the grade.
Public hearings on those requests are scheduled for 1:30 p.m. on Monday, May 7 in A.T. Johnson auditorium.
The agenda will include a request from New Jerusalem Baptist Church and Jerome Johnson for a zoning code special exception that would allow the cemetery to expand onto an adjacent agriculturally zoned property, where a pavilion would also be installed.
Coles Point Enterprises and engineer Jeff Howeth will seek approval of a Bay Act exception that would allow a timber retaining wall to be constructed on the Coles Point waterfront. The 1,122 foot bulkhead would be 32.5 inches high and would be installed immediately behind previously existing rip-rap revetment. Bio-retention filter utilizing vegetative materials would also be installed to stabilize the shoreline area that is situated upstream of the old Salisbury Park subdivision near the mouth of Lower Machodoc Creek.

How did the Rennaissance encourage the spirit of individuality and the capability of humans to think?

The Renaissance did this through things like art, literature, and later through science.
Looking at art, we can see that during the Renaissance artists came to cultivate their own styles. During the Middle Ages, art had tended to be fairly uniform, with the emphasis on the religious subject of the art. In the Renaissance, art continued to be religious in many cases, but it started to look very carefully at the human individual (think of how individual and well-portrayed the people in Michelangelo's paintings are) and it started to be done in individualistic styles. This sort of thing would have encouraged people to think of themselves in more individualistic terms. So would the writings of people like Petrarch and Dante. These ideas were then taught in the new schools that focused on humanism in education. Eventually, they led to the scientific revolution that really brought individuals' abilities to think and reason to the fore.

The section after the action is called the postlude. The rule's postlude statement is evaluated after the action has been generated.
The postlude allows for effects. Effects are an important addition to the ECA pattern. Effects differ from actions in that they do not result in directive documents being sent to the endpoint. Instead, they cause side effects on the KRE system. Examples of effects include the following:
 - Persistent variables. An effect might cause a permanent change to a persistent variable. Persistent variables allow context to be automatically maintained for an entity or an application across separate invocations of a rule set. See the documentation on persistent variables for more information.
 - Control statements. Sometimes, you need affect the normal execution order. For example, the last statement causes the execution of the ruleset to terminate after the current rule.
 - Explicit events. Explicit events allow a rule set to raise an event in response to incoming events.
 - Scheduled events. Scheduled events are raised and evaluated at a specific time.
 - Exception Handling Rules can raise error events that other rules respond to for handling exceptions.
 - Explicit Logging An effect might direct the system to log something.
The rule postlude allows action to be taken based on whether or not the rule fired. The most common use is to manage persistent variables. You can also place explicit logging statements in the prelude.
Postludes are evaluated based on the status of the rule: fired, notfired, or always. The fired and notfired constructs take an optional else clause that is executed in the opposite state. Consequently, a postlude takes on of the following forms:
Since the else is optional, you will often see postludes without it:
The following section describe the various statements that a postlude can contain:

The paper describes how to improve the reusability of iconic program modules. In iconic programming systems, the most important features for reuse are the customization of a module and combination of multiple modules without changing their definitions. In order to realize these features, we propose an object sharing technique, which allows components of multiple modules to represent the same object instance. Since a component in a module can be related to an object in another module, by adding a new function to an object in the latter module, the former module can be customized without changing its own definition. In addition, by relating a component to multiple objects in different modules, different functions defined in each module, can be combined easily. Finally, we show that the proposed technique realizes a useful software development style using templates, which will contribute to the improvement of the productivity

Superkilen, designed by BIG, TOPOTEK 1 and SUPERFLEX, is a kilometer-long urban space wedged within one of the most ethnically diverse and socially challenged neighbourhoods in Denmark. The wedge (in Danish: kilen) is structured along three spatial zones (red, black and green) and is populated by 108 objects and 11 trees from around the world.
Since its inception, Superkilen has been widely and controversially debated. The book invites readers behind the scenes of its making through the reflections of its main protagonists. It discusses the implications of the project in relation to changes in the conception of public space and to the increasing expectations connected to public investments nowadays. It places emphasis on urban planning, modes of participation, collaboration and conflicts, and discusses the possibilities of a shared, yet heterogeneous space.
By providing firsthand and background information about Superkilen, the book aims to further stimulate public discourses on the project, encouraging reflection and action in equal measure.

To improve the coulombic efficiency of GeO2 electrode, a Cu-containing ternary metal oxide (CuGeO3) was prepared and the electrochemical behavior of Cu component was studied. The GeO2 electrode shows a low coulombic efficiency in the first cycle (43%), which is mainly caused by a poor Ge oxidation kinetics (Ge + 2Li2O → GeO2 + 2Li+ + 2e-). The X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) data illustrate that the Cu component in CuGeO3 is converted to nano-sized metallic Cu in the earlier stage of lithiation but idles thereafter. In contrast, the Ge component in CuGeO3 behaves like the GeO2 electrode. It is converted to nano-sized Ge by a conversion reaction and further lithiated by alloying reaction. The de-lithiation proceeds in the reverse order. The CuGeO3 electrode shows a much improved coulombic efficiency (74%) in the first cycle, which is indebted to a facilitated Ge oxidation with a much reduced electrode polarization. This feature has been explained by the favorable roles provided by the in situ generated nano-sized metallic Cu particles that make such an intimate contact with the nano-sized Ge and Li2O that they can catalyze Li2O decomposition and provide an electronic conductive network for Ge oxidation. A similar favorable effect was observed with the other ternary oxides (FeGeO3 and CoGeO3), wherein the formation of nano-sized metallic Fe and Co can be assumed.

UCL has today issued a public apology for its links to the eugenics movement.
The apology acknowledges the university's "fundamental role in the development, propagation and legitimisation of eugenics" – which it describes as a "dangerous ideology" – and is part of a range of actions addressing the university's links to eugenics.
These actions follow an independent inquiry into eugenics at UCL, which was commissioned in 2018 after an honorary senior lecturer was found to have been hosting secret, invite-only conferences on eugenics and intelligence with controversial speakers.
UCL's president and provost Professor Michael Arthur (pictured) said: "UCL considers its history of involvement in eugenics to be in direct contradiction to its founding values of equality, openness and humanity.
"As a community, we reject eugenics entirely and are taking a range of actions to acknowledge and address our historical links with the eugenics movement.
"These actions – including our public apology today – are important steps towards understanding and acknowledging inequality within our institution and acting to ensure that UCL becomes fully inclusive for all our staff and students."
We apologise for being slow to interrogate properly the history and legacy of eugenics at UCL, and for failing to act with sufficient speed to remedy the ongoing effects on those in our community who are the targets of the eugenic mentality – UCL
The inquiry published its report and recommendations in February 2020. Recommendations also came from a sub-group of the inquiry team. UCL is responding to both sets with initiatives it says will "acknowledge and address its historical links with the eugenics movement". In June 2020, the provider 'denamed' spaces on its campus that had been named after prominent eugenicists Francis Galton, who coined the term 'eugenics', and Karl Pearson.
Actions that UCL will now take forward include:
- Investment in a comprehensive review and action plan to improve access and experience of disabled students and staff, including addressing physical and digital accessibility issues, collecting more robust data on disability at UCL, improving institutional understanding of the spectrum of disability, and tackling discrimination and unconscious bias
- Improving access for students from disadvantaged socioeconomic backgrounds through work to expand UCL's contextual offer scheme
- Greater prominence for the history and legacy of eugenics in UCL's teaching and learning activities
- Expanded opportunities for students to engage with the subject of eugenics, through activities including a specific module in the induction programme for new students, improved access to archives and special collections, and an ongoing programme of exhibitions and engagement, supported by a digital hub
UCL's eugenics apology in full
The apology, made by Professor Michael Arthur on behalf of UCL, reads:
"UCL acknowledges with deep regret that it played a fundamental role in the development, propagation and legitimisation of eugenics. This dangerous ideology cemented the spurious idea that varieties of human life could be assigned different value. It provided justification for some of the most appalling crimes in human history: genocide, forced euthanasia, colonialism and other forms of mass murder and oppression based on racial and ableist hierarchy.
"The legacies and consequences of eugenics still cause direct harm through the racism, antisemitism, ableism and other harmful stereotyping that they feed. These continue to impact on people's lives directly, driving discrimination and denying opportunity, access and representation.
"UCL considers its history of involvement in eugenics to be in direct contradiction to its founding values of equality, openness and humanity. As a community, we reject eugenics entirely.
"We apologise fully, and with humility, to all those who have suffered and to those who are still suffering because of our role in creating the conditions that enabled eugenics to become established and acted upon.
"We apologise for being slow to interrogate properly the history and legacy of eugenics at UCL, and for failing to act with sufficient speed to remedy the ongoing effects on those in our community who are the targets of the eugenic mentality.
"We apologise for honouring individuals who were leading eugenicists through the naming of spaces on campus.
"We recognise that the legacy of eugenics is ongoing and we commit to closing down any opportunity for this legacy to continue unacknowledged and unchallenged. We operate in a climate of academic freedom, but we recognise that the right to freedom of expression is not unfettered.
"UCL pledges to continue to confront its history of eugenics and ongoing legacies openly and critically, and to ensure that UCL staff and students are enabled to do the same."

Mount Fear by Abigail Reynolds takes the crime incident statistics for London and represents them as a 3D physical map built up from layer upon layer of cardboard.
Abigail Reynolds describes the project as follows:
The terrain of Mount Fear is generated by data sets relating to the frequency and position of urban crimes.
Each individual incident adds to the height of the model, forming a mountainous terrain. The imaginative fantasy space seemingly proposed by the sculpture is subverted by the hard facts and logic of the criteria that shape it.
The tensions present within Bradford offer a similar theme of inquiry – extracting data via desktop research could prove useful but overlaying this with 'on the ground' collected data would provide added richness.

Final touches on linear independence
Final touches on linear independence
Correctness of the dimension definition
The main definition of linear dependence is of type
(1) \sum_{j=1}^ma_jx^{(j)}=0 for some nonzero a\in R^m (a non-trivial annihilating set of coefficients exists).
Exercise 1. Prove that the main definition is equivalent to the following: vectors x^{(1)},...,x^{(m)}\in R^n are called linearly dependent if one of them can be expressed as a linear combination of the others.
Proof. This exercise is about passing from (1) to
(2) x^{(j)}=\sum_{i\neq j}b_ix^{(i)} (one is a function of the others).
If there is dependence of the first type, it can be solved for a vector whose coefficient is different from zero. Dependence of the second type can be converted to the first type by sending everything to one side.
Application. In multiple regression, we try to explain the behavior of a random vector y with the help of the vectors x^{(1)},...,x^{(m)} (called regressors) and a random vector u
(3) y=a_1x^{(1)}+...+a_mx^{(m)}+u.
Suppose that these regressors are linearly dependent. By Exercise 1, we can plug x^{(j)} in (3) and the behavior of y can be explained with the help of a smaller number of regressors. After eliminating all regressors that depend on the others, we obtain a more economical model. See a related discussion.
Exercise 2 (going from a small system to large and back) a) If some subsystem of x^{(1)},...,x^{(m)} is linearly dependent, then the whole system is linearly dependent. b) If the system x^{(1)},...,x^{(m)} is linearly independent, then any its subsystem is linearly independent.
Proof. a) If we have a non-trivial annihilating set of coefficients for a subsystem, it can be completed with zeros to obtain a non-trivial annihilating set of coefficients for the whole system. b) Proof by contradiction. Assume that some subsystem is linearly dependent. Then by part a) the whole system is too.
Theorem (correctness of the dimension definition) Any basis in R^n consists of n vectors.
The proof in Halmos (Finite-dimensional vector spaces, Springer, 1987) is the shortest I could find. To understand it, you will need Exercise 2. I don't give the proof here because I don't find it to be of general interest. Note that the theorem itself is important for any statement involving the dimension notion.
Using square matrices to study non-square ones
We'll need the upper bound on the rank:
(1) \text{rank}(A)\leq \min \{n,k\} if A is of size n\times k.
Exercise 3. \text{rank}(A^T)=\text{rank}(A^TA).
Proof. We know that R^n=N(A^T)\oplus\text{Img}(A). Applying A^T to both sides we get \text{Img}(A^T)=\text{Img}(A^TA). [In detail: any x\in R^n can be represented as x=y+z, where y\in N(A^T), z\in\text{Img}(A), z=Au for some u. Hence, applying A^T, we get A^Tx=A^Ty+A^Tz=A^Tz=A^TAu. When x runs over R^n, the left side runs over \text{Img}(A^T), while the right side runs over \text{Img}(A^TA).] If two subspaces coincide, their dimensions are the same.
Exercise 4. In R^n any set of vectors x^{(1)},...,x^{(m)} with m>n is linearly dependent.
Proof. Put X=(x^{(1)},...,x^{(m)}). X is of size n\times m. By Exercise 3 and (1)
(2) \text{rank}(X^TX)=\text{rank}(X^T)\leq n

Everyone likes to save money. And many of us want to do what we can to help the planet as well. Click2Mail gives you the tools to do both with MailJack™, which lets you use the "print" feature in any software program (like Microsoft Word or Adobe Reader, even your email program or web browser) to send a document – like an invoice, letter, or announcement – directly through the U.S. Mail.
Using MailJack saves you time and money, and is more environmentally friendly. Here's how it works:
1. The first step is installing the MailJack print driver on your Windows computer (you'll need a Click2Mail account to do this). Once the print driver is installed, open the document you want to print. Select "print" from the appropriate menu and choose "Click2Mail MailJack™" as your printer. You can preview the document just like you would if you were printing it on your printer at home or in the office.
2. Once you're satisfied that everything looks good, you click "print" and your document is transmitted to Click2Mail.com. We receive the document, print it, and deliver it to your recipient via the U.S. Postal Service. That's it!
The advantages of using MailJack™ include:
- It's easy: All you have to do is install the print driver on your computer. There's no special software to learn or tricks to know. If you can print a document from your computer, you can use MailJack™.
- It's fast: We know it's important to you to get your mail out the door as quickly as possible. That's why we guarantee that any First-Class orders submitted by 8 p.m. EST through MailJack™will be mailed the next business day.
- It's flexible: MailJack works whether you want to mail one document or 100. You can print-to-mail addressed documents (like a letter) or unaddressed documents (like a presentation – you just tell us where you want to send it and we'll add the address on the fly). We can even combine multiple documents to mail to a single address, or send multiple addressed documents using mail merge. Have a large document you need to send? No problem. You can send up to 94 pages in each envelope.
- It's affordable: All you need to get started with MailJack™ is a free Click2Mail account. Then, just purchase user credits through your Click2Mail account, and your order will be processed automatically. Plus, you save valuable time by eliminating all the tedious steps that go into preparing a mailing yourself. Just one click, and you're done.

Plus, we use recycled materials to print your mailing, and we automatically standardize addresses, so that your mail ends up in the hands of its intended recipient, rather than in the trash. Finally, because we route your mail to the printing center closest to the delivery address, we're able to reduce carbon emissions.


Diagnostic Updater API
diagnostic_updater provides a variety of C++ utilities to assist in integrating diagnostics with your software. Common updater tasks include:
 - publishing the status of a sensor data topic on a device driver
 - reporting that a hardware device is closed
 - reporting an error when a value is out of bounds, e.g. temperature
It also provides a Python API very similar to the C++ API
Examples and Tutorials
A working example of a diagnostic_updater can be found in diagnostic_updater/src/example.cpp. This example goes through some of the most common uses of an updater.
API Stability
The documented C++ API is widely used and should be considered stable.
diagnostic_updater::DiagnosticStatusWrapper
The diagnostic_updater::DiagnosticStatusWrapper class eases the pain of filling out a diagnostic_msgs/DiagnosticStatus message. It handles setting the summary, possibly with printf-type formatting of the message field, and setting of key-value pairs with type-conversion and formatting of the values. It also has facilities for merging multiple diagnostic_msgs/DiagnosticStatus messages without losing information in the status message.
diagnostic_updater::Updater
The diagnostic_updater::Updater class manages a set of diagnostic update functions, and their periodic publication.
diagnostic_updater::DiagnosedPublisher
Monitoring a topic's frequency, a common diagnostics feature, and the validity of its timestamps can be done using pre-packaged diagnostic update functions. A diagnostic_updater::DiagnosedPublisher wraps a Publisher and standard diagnostics that relate to it in a single class.
Topics with expected frequency lower than 1 Hz are supported. However, DiagnosedPublisher will report the diagnostic_updater::TimeStampStatus task in WARNING state for the periods when no message came. If you want to work around this limitation and report the timestamp status as OK in the empty periods, you have to manually create a task of type diagnostic_updater::SlowTimeStampStatus and use it together with a diagnostic_updater::FrequencyStatus task instead of the DiagnosedPublisher.

How Far is Sydney?
- You will need a world map, rulers, and string for this activity.
- Instruct your students to find the distance between the city where you live and Sydney, Australia, the site of the 2000 summer Olympiad. They can measure the distance with the string and then measure the string, or they can just use the rulers - whichever they prefer.
- Post a list of cities/nations form around the world, and have them find the distance from each of these cities to Sydney.
- They should then list the cities in order from the closest to Sydney to the furthest away. They can estimate the time it took for competitors from each location to get to the Olympic games.


HandlerPoint QML Type
An event point. More...
Import Statement: import QtQuick 2.15
Properties
Detailed Description
A QML representation of a QQuickEventPoint.
It's possible to make bindings to properties of a handler's current point or centroid. For example:
import QtQuick 2.12
Item {
 width: 640
 height: 480
 DragHandler {
 id: handler
 target: null
 }
 Text {
 color: handler.active ? "darkgreen" : "black"
 text: handler.centroid.position.x.toFixed(1) + "," + handler.centroid.position.y.toFixed(1)
 x: handler.centroid.position.x - width / 2
 y: handler.centroid.position.y - height
 }
}
The point is kept up-to-date when the DragHandler is actively responding to an EventPoint; but after the point is released, or when the current point is being handled by a different handler, position.x and position.y are 0.
Note: This is practically identical to QtQuick::EventPoint; however an EventPoint is a long-lived QObject which is invalidated between gestures and reused for subsequent event deliveries. Continuous bindings to its properties are not possible, and an individual handler cannot rely on it outside the period when that point is part of an active gesture which that handler is handling. HandlerPoint is a Q_GADGET that the handler owns. This allows you to make lifetime bindings to its properties.
See also SinglePointHandler::point and MultiPointHandler::centroid.
Property Documentation
[read-only] ellipseDiameters : size
This property holds the diameters of the contact patch, if the event comes from a touchpoint and the device provides this information.
A touchpoint is modeled as an elliptical area where the finger is pressed against the touchscreen. (In fact, it could also be modeled as a bitmap; but in that case we expect an elliptical bounding estimate to be fitted to the contact patch before the event is sent.) The harder the user presses, the larger the contact patch; so, these diameters provide an alternate way of detecting pressure, in case the device does not include a separate pressure sensor. The ellipse is centered on scenePosition (position in the PointerHandler's Item's local coordinates). The rotation property provides the rotation of the ellipse, if known. It is expected that if the rotation is zero, the height is the larger dimension (the major axis), because of the usual hand position, reaching upward or outward across the surface.
If the contact patch is unknown, or the device is not a touchscreen, these values will be zero.
See also QtQuick::EventTouchPoint::ellipseDiameters, QtQuick::TouchPoint::ellipseDiameters, and QTouchEvent::TouchPoint::ellipseDiameters.
[read-only] id : int
The ID number of the point
During a touch gesture, from the time that the first finger is pressed until the last finger is released, each touchpoint will have a unique ID number. Likewise, if input from multiple devices occurs (for example simultaneous mouse and touch presses), all the current event points from all the devices will have unique IDs.
Note: Do not assume that id numbers start at zero or that they are sequential. Such an assumption is often false due to the way the underlying drivers work.
See also QTouchEvent::TouchPoint::id.
[read-only] modifiers : enumeration
Which modifier keys are currently pressed
This property holds the keyboard modifiers that were pressed at the time the event occurred.
[read-only] position : QPointF
The position within the parent Item
This is the position of the event point relative to the bounds of the parent.
[read-only] pressPosition : QPointF
The pressed position within the parent Item
This is the position at which this point was pressed, relative to the bounds of the parent.
[read-only] pressedButtons : enumeration
Which mouse or stylus buttons are currently pressed
See also MouseArea::pressedButtons.
[read-only] pressure : qreal
This property tells how hard the user is pressing the stylus on a graphics tablet or the finger against a touchscreen, in the range from 0 (no measurable pressure) to 1.0 (maximum pressure which the device can measure).
It is valid only with certain tablets and touchscreens that can measure pressure. Otherwise, it will be zero.
[read-only] rotation : qreal
This property holds the rotation angle of the stylus on a graphics tablet or the contact patch of a touchpoint on a touchscreen.
It is valid only with certain tablet stylus devices and touchscreens that can measure the rotation angle. Otherwise, it will be zero.
[read-only] sceneGrabPosition : QPointF
The grabbed position within the scene
If this point has been grabbed by a Pointer Handler or an Item, it means that object has taken sole responsibility for handling the movement and the release if this point. In that case, this is the position at which the grab occurred, in the coordinate system of the scene graph.
[read-only] scenePosition : QPointF
The position within the scene
This is the position of the event point relative to the bounds of the Qt Quick scene (typically the whole window).
[read-only] scenePressPosition : QPointF
The pressed position within the scene
This is the position at which this point was pressed, in the coordinate system of the scene graph.
[read-only] uniqueId : PointingDeviceUniqueId
The unique ID of the point, if any
This is normally empty, because touchscreens cannot uniquely identify fingers.
On some types of touchscreens, especially those using TUIO drivers, it's possible to use recognizable physical tokens (fiducial objects) in addition to fingers. So if this point is a touch point, and uniqueId is set, it is the identifier for such an object.
On a graphics tablet, each type of stylus or other tool often has a unique ID or serial number, which can be useful to respond in different ways to different tools.
Interpreting the contents of this ID requires knowledge of the hardware and drivers in use.
See also QTabletEvent::uniqueId, QtQuick::TouchPoint::uniqueId, and QtQuick::EventTouchPoint::uniqueId.
[read-only] velocity : QVector2D
A vector representing the average speed and direction of movement
This is a velocity vector pointing in the direction of movement, in logical pixels per second. It has x and y components, at least one of which will be nonzero when this point is in motion. It holds the average recent velocity: how fast and in which direction the event point has been moving recently.
See also QtQuick::EventPoint::velocity, QtQuick::TouchPoint::velocity, and QTouchEvent::TouchPoint::velocity.

Effects of non-local exchange on core level shifts for gas-phase and adsorbed molecules
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2014
Density functional theory calculations are often used to interpret experimental shifts in core level binding energies. Calculations based on gradient-corrected (GC) exchange-correlation functionals are known to reproduce measured core level shifts (CLS) of isolated molecules and metal surfaces with reasonable accuracy. In the present study, we discuss a series of examples where the shifts calculated within a GC-functional significantly deviate from the experimental values, namely the CLS of C 1s in ethyl trifluoroacetate, Pd 3d in PdO and the O 1s shift for CO adsorbed on PdO(101). The deviations are traced to effects of the electronic self-interaction error with GC-functionals and substantially better agreements between calculated and measured CLS are obtained when a fraction of exact exchange is used in the exchange-correlation functional.


Using Kibana in a production environmentedit
How you deploy Kibana largely depends on your use case. If you are the only user, you can run Kibana on your local machine and configure it to point to whatever Elasticsearch instance you want to interact with. Conversely, if you have a large number of heavy Kibana users, you might need to load balance across multiple Kibana instances that are all connected to the same Elasticsearch instance.
While Kibana isn't terribly resource intensive, we still recommend running Kibana separate from your Elasticsearch data or master nodes. To distribute Kibana traffic across the nodes in your Elasticsearch cluster, you can run Kibana and an Elasticsearch client node on the same machine. For more information, see Load Balancing Across Multiple Elasticsearch Nodes.
Using Elastic Stack security featuresedit
You can use Elastic Stack security features to control what Elasticsearch data users can access through Kibana.
When security features are enabled, Kibana users have to log in. They need to have the kibana_user role as well as access to the indices they will be working with in Kibana.
If a user loads a Kibana dashboard that accesses data in an index that they are not authorized to view, they get an error that indicates the index does not exist. The security features do not currently provide a way to control which users can load which dashboards.
For information about setting up Kibana users, see Configuring security in Kibana.
Enabling SSLedit
See Encrypting communications.
Load Balancing Across Multiple Elasticsearch Nodesedit
If you have multiple nodes in your Elasticsearch cluster, the easiest way to distribute Kibana requests across the nodes is to run an Elasticsearch Coordinating only node on the same machine as Kibana. Elasticsearch Coordinating only nodes are essentially smart load balancers that are part of the cluster. They process incoming HTTP requests, redirect operations to the other nodes in the cluster as needed, and gather and return the results. For more information, see Node in the Elasticsearch reference.
To use a local client node to load balance Kibana requests:
 1. Install Elasticsearch on the same machine as Kibana.
 2. Configure the node as a Coordinating only node. In elasticsearch.yml, set node.data, node.master and node.ingest to false:
 # 3. You want this node to be neither master nor data node nor ingest node, but
 # to act as a "search load balancer" (fetching data from nodes,
 # aggregating results, etc.)
 #
 node.master: false
 node.data: false
 node.ingest: false
 3. Configure the client node to join your Elasticsearch cluster. In elasticsearch.yml, set the cluster.name to the name of your cluster.
 cluster.name: "my_cluster"
 4. Check your transport and HTTP host configs in elasticsearch.yml under network.host and transport.host. The transport.host needs to be on the network reachable to the cluster members, the network.host is the network for the HTTP connection for Kibana (localhost:9200 by default).
 network.host: localhost
 http.port: 9200

 # by default transport.host refers to network.host
 transport.host: <external ip>
 transport.tcp.port: 9300 - 9400
 5. Make sure Kibana is configured to point to your local client node. In kibana.yml, the elasticsearch.url should be set to localhost:9200.
 # The Elasticsearch instance to use for all your queries.
 elasticsearch.url: "http://localhost:9200"

Research overview:
The hidden labour of Brazilian women on AI platforms
The aim of this research is to analyse the labour of Brazilian women on AI platforms, considering intersections between gender, Global South and class composition perspectives. There are inequalities involving local workers and so-called global platforms. There is no 'digital labour universalism' or a homogeneous and unique notion of global workforce. There are, in fact, diverse work and AI scenarios around the world, including Brazilian AI platforms. The hidden labour in these AI platforms accelerate the platformisation of labour from the process of 'taskification of labour' and the data production for automation. Furthermore, platformisation, or, heteromation of labour has gender perspectives, from the materialities and infrastructures of the platforms to the working conditions. In a Global South perspective, informal work is not an exception, but historically the way of life of most workers, an ordinary state. The change is that informal work – also with gender issues involved – are now platformised. There are connections among human labour, data and planetary resources, considering data as a form of capital for AI companies, expropriating and colonising workers' resources. Is it possible to say that there is an AI colonialism involving hidden labour for AI platforms? Most research on labour and AI focuses on the Global North, highlighting countries such as the United States and France, with a centrality of Amazon Mechanical Turk. The Latin American scenario is less well known in academic research on labour and AI in the Global South in relation to countries like the Philippines and India. In Brazil, existing research to date focuses only on Amazon Mechanical Turk and has no gender perspectives. These researchers argue that the majority of workers are men. Nevertheless, what about women? What is it like to be a Brazilian woman – and thus, from the Global South – working for AI platforms? How are their working conditions? What are the AI imaginaries involved in their relationship with work? How gender and territory issues affect their working experiences?
