Adding an Asset Prefix
Gatsby produces static content that can be hosted anywhere at scale in a cost-effective manner. This static content is comprised of HTML files, JavaScript, CSS, images, and more that power your great Gatsby application.
In some circumstances you may want to deploy assets (non-HTML resources such as JavaScript, CSS, etc.) to a separate domain. Typically this is when you're required to use a dedicated CDN for assets or need to follow company-specific hosting policies.
This assetPrefix functionality is available starting in gatsby@2.4.0, so that you can seamlessly use Gatsby with assets hosted from a separate domain. To use this functionality, ensure that your version of gatsby specified in package.json is at least 2.4.0.
Adding to gatsby-config.js
One more step - when you build out this application, you need to add a flag so that Gatsby picks up this option.
The --prefix-paths flag
When building with an assetPrefix, you require a --prefix-paths flag. If this flag is not specified, the build will ignore this option, and build out content as if it was hosted on the same domain. To ensure you build out successfully, use the following command:
That's it! You have an application that is ready to have its assets deployed from a CDN and its core files (e.g. HTML files) can be hosted on a separate domain.
Building / Deploying
Once your application is built out, all assets will be automatically prefixed by this asset prefix. For example, if you have a JavaScript file app-common-1234.js, the script tag will look something like:
However - if you were to deploy your application as-is, those assets would not be available! You can do this in a few ways, but the general approach will be to deploy the contents of the public folder to both your core domain, and the CDN/asset prefix location.
Using onPostBuild
You expose an onPostBuild API hook. This can be used to deploy your content to the CDN, like so:
Using package.json scripts
Additionally, you can use an npm script, which will let you use some command line interfaces/executables to perform some action, in this case, deploying your assets directory!
In this example, the aws-cli and s3 is used to sync the public folder (containing all the assets) to the s3 bucket.
Now whenever the build script is invoked, e.g. npm run build, the postbuild script will be invoked after the build completes, therefore making your assets available on a separate domain after you have finished building out your application with prefixed assets.
Additional Considerations
Usage with pathPrefix
The pathPrefix feature can be thought of as semi-related to this feature. That feature allows all your website content to be prefixed with some constant prefix, for example you may want your blog to be hosted from /blog rather than the project root.
This feature works seamlessly with pathPrefix. Build out your application with the --prefix-paths flag and you'll be well on your way to hosting an application with its assets hosted on a CDN, and its core functionality available behind a path prefix.
Usage with gatsby-plugin-offline
When using a custom asset prefix with gatsby-plugin-offline, your assets can still be cached offline. However, to ensure the plugin works correctly, there are a few things you need to do.
 1. Your asset server needs to have the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header set either to * or your site's origin.
 2. Certain essential resources need to be available on your content server (i.e. the one used to serve pages). This includes sw.js, as well as resources to precache: the webpack bundle, the app bundle, the manifest (and any icons referenced), and the resources for the offline plugin app shell.
 You can find most of these by looking for the self.__precacheManifest variable in your generated sw.js. Remember to also include sw.js itself, and any icons referenced in your manifest.webmanifest if you have one. To check your service worker is functioning as expected, look in Application → Service Workers in your browser dev tools, and check for any failed resources in the Console/Network tabs.

The purpose of this paper is to identify and analyze resources and capabilities that distinguish between traditional, slow born‐global and rapid born‐global micro‐firms.
The study uses multiple case study methodology. Three case studies are presented to compare the internationalization pathways of three French micro‐firms.
The paper emphasizes the importance of leveraging between internal and external resources for rapid internationalization of micro‐firms. The rapid internationalization is driving and facilitated by managerial abilities, innovation and network. The study shows that analysis of micro‐firms in terms of resources and capabilities enhances the understanding of internationalization.
Because it is limited to three case studies, the generalization of findings to a broad sample of French micro‐firms will be needed.
The research suggests that two‐level analysis (i.e. individual level and micro‐firm level) should be considered when examining rapid internationalization. Micro‐firm top managers need to be aware of the importance of developing internal resources to facilitate incorporation of new external resources. Their experience and expertise in addition to the micro‐firm's innovation capacity or reputation can be used to expand rapidly abroad.
The distinction between traditional, slow born‐global and rapid born‐global French micro‐firms in terms of resources and capabilities makes this study original.

HURRICANE, W.Va. - Sporting black tape below each eye - one piece reading "Go!" and the other "49ers!" - 8-year-old Caleb Allawat left no doubt that he's a football fan.
His level of engagement during math class Monday might have been a little misleading as to his fondness for the subject.
Thanks to the Super Bowl statistics used during the lesson, the third-grader was finding math more fun.
"Because it's about football," Caleb said.
This is the sixth year Sue Pate has incorporated statistics from the NFL championship game into her math lessons.
An avid football fan herself - one of her sons plays for Fairmont State University and the other for Hurricane High School - Pate said she already was following the statistics in the newspaper.
In a "light bulb moment," she realized the statistics could be a new way to engage her students.
"It's just using math outside their textbooks in a fun and exciting way." She usually presents the themed lesson the Friday before the big game. Because last week ended with a snow day, she had to settle for a little post-game analysis.
Handing out the Super Bowl informational graphic published in the Daily Mail, she asked students to look at the yearly statistics from the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers, the two teams that played in the Super Bowl.
Students added up passing yards, determined the dimensions of the playing field and figured out how many touchdowns players scored per game.
Gianna Muto, 9, was one of two students in the class not wearing the purple of the Ravens or red of the 49ers. Sporting her Pittsburgh Steelers gear, Gianna said she's also a big math fan. Lessons usually focus on one basic concept, but the football exercise required students to use several different techniques.

IELTS Essay Sample Latest Question # Course Fee
You should spend 40 minutes on this task.Some people think that governments should pay the course fees for everyone who wants to study at university.To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
Write at least 250 words.
- Paying the fee for everyone will be over budget for the government.
- No competition left resulting in degrading quality of education.
- People with high quality of life will also use government resources which can be put on other resources.
- There are millions who need money for the junior education as well.
- Issues like food, job and many others need attention as well.
Millions all around the world live with the unfulfilled wishes of studying in a university although there are very few who do get the opportunity. With this, there are many who believe that it is the responsibility of the government to ensure that everyone does get admission in the university. In my opinion, the government should definitely give attention to the number of students demanding university education but paying for everyone is surely not a pragmatic step.
Firstly, there are a lot of issues a country face; education being just one of them. There are homeless people, ones who need food and then millions seeking for job. Spending the entire budget on providing university education to everyone will leave government with few resources. Even more, free things often don't receive respect and importance. So, if the students are given free education without any competition, they are likely to take things very lightly. Also, there are students who lack even basic education. It is the responsibility of the government to ensure that the entire nation is on the same page.
In addition, if the government spends fortune on providing education to all, there is less money left for endeavors like space and sports which require equal importance. Nevertheless, it is the competition that ensures that people work hard and improve. Taking away the competition will surely degrade the quality of education.
Overall, surely there are many in need of university education but providing it to all free of cost will bring down the education quality. On the other hand, competition can surely be loosened up and government can provide better scholarships than making it completely free.

Evaluation of noise compression properties of RSOA devices for WDMPON applications
DEI PhD Student
DEI - Policom - aula Blu
17 novembre 2011
The growing demand for high bandwidth access services is driving the development of low-cost passive optical network technology, such as spectrum-sliced wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) using incoherent sources. However, the relative intensity noise (RIN) present in incoherent light imposes an upper limit on the achievable system performance. This impacts directly on high channel density spectrum-sliced systems, as the intensity noise increases with decreasing channel bandwidth. A gain-saturated Reflective Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (RSOA) can be used to overcome this limitation and suppress the intensity noise, allowing for increased spectral efficiency. Moreover, this technique has the additional benefit that the RSOA can be used simultaneously for both signal modulation and amplification.
We present an experimental and simulative study on the impact of the RSOA on the RIN of a sliced ASE source, focusing on the noise compression factor of the device. The analysis has been carried out on two RSOA devices with different characteristics using different filters placed before and after the RSOA. In particular, the noise source is generated by a slice of Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) selected with two filters with different bandwidth (50 GHz and 6 GHz) and transfer function. The introduction of a further optical filter after the RSOA has been studied. Finally, a complete simulative investigation has been carried out in order to confirm the experimental results.

Electrical Engineering XYZ MCQs
Relaxation Voltage controlled oscillators are used to generate:
- Triangular wave
- Sawtooth wave
- Both 1 and 2
- Sinusoidal wave
Correct answer: 3. Both 1 and 2
- Triangular wave: A relaxation oscillator is capable of generating a triangular wave. In a relaxation oscillator, the capacitor charges up to a certain voltage level and then discharges rapidly through a resistor, causing the voltage to drop. This cycle repeats, resulting in a triangular waveform.
- Sawtooth wave: Similarly, a relaxation oscillator can also generate a sawtooth wave. This is achieved by charging the capacitor linearly (instead of exponentially, as in the case of generating a triangular wave) and then discharging it rapidly. The linear charging results in a linear increase in voltage, leading to a sawtooth waveform when the capacitor discharges.
- Sinusoidal wave: While relaxation oscillators primarily produce triangular and sawtooth waves, they can be used as part of a circuit to generate a sinusoidal wave. However, it typically requires additional circuitry such as filters and nonlinear elements to shape the waveform into a sinusoidal shape.
So, the correct answer is "Both 1 and 2". While relaxation oscillators directly generate triangular and sawtooth waves, with additional circuitry and adjustments, they can also contribute to generating sinusoidal waves indirectly.

Cadabra
a field-theory motivated approach to computer algebra
simplify
Simplify the scalar part of an expression.
When expressions (or sub-expressions) involve scalars, simplification of such expressions can be 'outsourced' to an external scalar computer algebra system, at present either Sympy or Mathematica. The simplify algorithm finds all scalar sub-expressions and runs the simplification algorithm of one of these systems on them.
ex:= (\sin{x}**2 + \cos{x}**2) A_{m};
\(\displaystyle{}\left({\left(\sin{x}\right)}^{2}+{\left(\cos{x}\right)}^{2}\right) A_{m}\)
((\sin(x))**2 + (\cos(x))**2) A_{m}
simplify(_);
\(\displaystyle{}A_{m}\)
A_{m}
By default it will use the Sympy backend, but if you have compiled Cadabra on a system which has Mathematica installed, you can also switch it to use Mathematica instead, by using
kernel(scalar_backend="mathematica")

Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX - parse XLSX files
version 0.14
 use Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX;
 my $parser = Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX->new;
 my $workbook = $parser->parse("file.xlsx");
 # see Spreadsheet::ParseExcel for further documentation
This module is an adaptor for Spreadsheet::ParseExcel that reads XLSX files.
Returns a new parser instance. Takes no parameters.
Parses an XLSX file. Parsing errors throw an exception. $file can be either a filename or an open filehandle. Returns a Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Workbook instance containing the parsed data.
This module returns data using classes from Spreadsheet::ParseExcel, so for the most part, it should just be a drop-in replacement. That said, there are a couple areas where the data returned is intentionally different:
In Spreadsheet::ParseExcel, colors are represented by integers which index into the color table, and you have to use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel->ColorIdxToRGB in order to get the actual value out. In Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX, while the color table still exists, cells are also allowed to specify their color directly rather than going through the color table. In order to avoid confusion, I normalize all color values in Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX to their string RGB format ("#0088ff"). This affects the Fill, BdrColor, and BdrDiag properties of formats, and the Color property of fonts. Note that the default color is represented by undef (the same thing that ColorIdxToRGB would return).
Spreadsheet::ParseExcel doesn't support formulas. Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX provides basic formula support by returning the text of the formula as part of the cell data. You can access it via $cell->{Formula}. Note that the restriction still holds that formula cell values aren't available unless they were explicitly provided when the spreadsheet was written.
Large spreadsheets may cause segfaults on perl 5.14 and earlier
This module internally uses XML::Twig, which makes it potentially subject to Bug #71636 for XML-Twig: Segfault with medium-sized document on perl versions 5.14 and below (the underlying bug with perl weak references was fixed in perl 5.15.5). The larger and more complex the spreadsheet, the more likely to be affected, but the actual size at which it segfaults is platform dependent. On a 64-bit perl with 7.6gb memory, it was seen on spreadsheets about 300mb and above. You can work around this adding XML::Twig::_set_weakrefs(0) to your code before parsing the spreadsheet, although this may have other consequences such as memory leaks.
Worksheets without the dimension tag are not supported
Intra-cell formatting is discarded
Diagonal border styles are ignored
In addition, there are still a few areas which are not yet implemented (the XLSX spec is quite large). If you run into any of those, bug reports are quite welcome.
Please report any bugs to GitHub Issues at _URL_

The Sierra School at Main Street is an in-district model working in partnership with St. Vrain Valley School District. The program services students in grades k–12 with autism spectrum exceptionalities and specific learning disabilities.
At Sierra, we take an individualized approach to educating students with specific eligibilities, which starts with building strong foundational skills in the areas of language, visual performance, and fine and gross motor skills. Our approach is informed by the belief that it is common to find defined splinter skills in children and adolescents with autism and SLD, as well as a large "gap" between receptive and expressive language skills—a gap that hinders social abilities and can lead to maladaptive behaviors. Consequently, the Sierra School consistently works to bridge this gap by expediting acquisition of skills and increasing our students' awareness of their surroundings. To accomplish this, we employ a rotational model of instruction whereby students move about their educational space, alternating among specific learning modalities and diversifying their settings, all of which supports faster generalization of skills.
Our rotational system consists of DTT (Discrete Trial Training) sessions, life skills training, social skills lab and motor lab work, NET (Natural Environment Teaching), instruction in designated academic blocks, activity schedules, and independent play and leisure time. Each rotation is designed to progressively build on the last level of skills and inform the next level. For example, what is taught in DTT serves as a building block for the social skills lab, which in turn is generalized into the NET room, which itself is generalized into routine components of the day (e.g., recess, lunch, transitional times) and eventually to real-world encounters. Ultimately, this progression of skills leads to two long-term goals: (1) the ability to participate, function, and demonstrate independence in the general public; and (2) the ability to transition students to a more general academic setting.

Graffiti Vandalism in Riverside
Winners were recognized at a City Council meeting on May 21, 2013. View the winning Poster Contest entries HERE. View the winning Video Contest entries HERE.
Take Back the Wall
The City of Riverside spends more than $1.3 million each year for Graffiti abatement. In addition, money is spent by other public agencies, utility companies, and private property owners to remove graffiti from their properties.
Nationwide, the American public spends nearly $12 billion each year to fight graffiti.
What is Graffiti?
Graffiti consists of inscriptions, slogans and drawings scratched, scribbled or painted on a wall or other public or private surface.
Today, graffiti is a sign of urban decay. James Q. Wilson, Shattuck Professor of Government at Harvard University and author of "Thinking About Crime," together with George L. Kelling, a research fellow at the John F. Kennedy School of Government Harvard, first introduced the world to the Broken Window Theory.
The theory contends that if a broken window is left unfixed it can quickly encourage more crime and vandalism to the neighborhood because it sends a message of indifference to observers. Graffiti is one element of the broken window theory. Once graffiti shows up somewhere, if left untreated, generally more graffiti follows.
Graffiti has become everyone's eyesore and everyone's problem. It generates fear of neighborhood crime and instability. It is costly, destructive, lowers property values and sends a message that people of the community are not concerned about the appearance of their neighborhood. It is against the law, and in cases where the cost of clean-up equates to $400 or more, is punishable as a felony. Graffiti is not art; it is vandalism and criminal.
Parents may be liable for up to $25,000 for each graffiti incident pursuant to Civil Code 1714.1.

Some Properties of Plain Carbon Steels Containing Uranium
Medium and low carbon steels, modified with uranium, were studied in order to evaluate the influence of uranium on forgeability, mechanical properties, response to heat treatment and microstructure. Uranium contents ranged up to 0.70 per cent. The medium carbon steels are hot short if the uranium content exceeds about 0.35 per cent. More uranium can be tolerated in low carbon steels. The hot shortness is caused by the formation of intergranular phase UFe1.

Who We Are
What We Do
In 2018, Australia will include, for the first time, an engagement and impact (EI) assessment exercise as a companion to the Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) national framework. The research underpinning this paper sought to identify the core competencies that are crucial to supporting roles within emerging impact and engagement expectations. A content analysis of research support position descriptions and job advertisements from the UK and Australia was conducted and these were mapped to current industry skill audits for library and information science (LIS) professionals. Also discussed are the current knowledge and skills of LIS professionals and what additional competencies they may need to acquire or develop if they are to contribute to institutions and researchers meeting the requirements of an EI assessment exercise. The hard skills required by both UK and Australian EI support roles are aligned to those endorsed and promoted by the LIS industry and are reflected in the Australian Library and Information skills templates. The study points to the viability of using current academic library networks and LIS professionals to meet the demands of future EI assessment in Australia.

Results from a randomized control trial show that floors participating in a treatment with inter-floor competitions and tips reduced energy consumption by 9%, while those that also included floor-wise 'energy advocates" reduced energy consumption by 14% over a period of 5 months.
Behavioral Economics: Underlying Principles
This paper analyses the impact of income inequality on public good provision in an experimental setting. A sample of secondary school students were recruited to participate in a simple linear public goods game where income heterogeneity was introduced by providing participants with unequal token endowments. The results show that endowment heterogeneity does not have any significant impact on contributions to the public good, and that consistent with models of reciprocity, low and high endowment players contribute the same fraction of their endowment to the public pool.

Empowering University Students Through Online Multiple Choice Questions
Editors: Chova, L.G., Martinez, A.L. and Torres, I.C.
Start date: 14 November 2016
Publisher: IATED-INT ASSOC TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION A& DEVELOPMENT, LAURI VOLPI 6, VALENICA, BURJASSOT 46100, SPAIN
The benefit of using online multiple choice questions (MCQs) to test knowledge acquisition, provide reassurance to learners that required knowledge has be understood and as a tool to detect knowledge deficits or misunderstanding have long been understood. Moving the MCQ online provides an opportunity to widen access, measure participation and interaction and to test the use of theories such as gamification in raising engagement by students. Aim of this paper is to describe how Bournemouth University developed, integrated and operated the MCQ application, Peerwise, to enhance the engagement and learning of undergraduate and postgraduate students in the context of flipped class environment. Using Peerwise, students create MCQs that are answered, rated and commented on by other students. Trophies awarded for contribution, feedback and usage ensure there is interest in the ranking tables and encourage higher levels of participation. Fielding's student as researcher concept is applicable here as students can use this tool to bring about radical change in their learning. The traditional tutor – student relationship is often seen as a demotivator for students whereas Peerwise replaces this with self-regulated learning and a more flexible model that can be accessed at any time, from anywhere and which, crucially, gives immediate feedback and explanations. Issues surrounding the length of time taken to provide feedback and the utility of that feedback are instantly overcome. This personalised and empowering approach enables students to develop their knowledge appropriately as they undertake individual transformations.
Bournemouth University embedded Peerwise in UG units. In line with previous studies Peerwise is found to be beneficial. After the successful trial, Bournemouth University has widened the use of MCQ through a staff-student co-creation project to generate university-wide question repositories that can be quickly and easily embedded in most taught units and which can also be used to give tutors experience and confidence in using a new technology-based learning tool and in this way to develop their own digital literacy. Peerwise allows improving student engagement by empowering students to regulate own learning processes.

A CT scanner is an instrument for detecting conditions. A CT scan can see the tissue and different levels of density inside a solid organ. It provides detailed information about the body in high-resolution images. PCBs play a key role in the medical and health field, more and more research areas tend to be automated technology, so there is a need for a lot of work involved in PCB assembly to improve medical devices in the field.
When the CT scanner is assembled, the electronic components are soldered to the PCB, so that the PCB can maximize its value. Before the PCB assembly process, it is necessary to consider the type of the CT scanner PCB, the characteristics of the PCB parts, and the function of the circuit board. A feasibility analysis for manufacturability is required prior to CT scanner PCB assembly, i.e. DFMA services, design for manufacturability testing is performed to identify and correct any challenges in the design, the main goal of DFM is that the final CT scanner can be Function as required.
The assembly tools that need to be used in the PCB assembly of CT scanners include PCB cleaners, solder paste printers, SPI inspection, ten-temperature zone nitrogen reflow ovens, online AOI and other equipment to help complete the CT scanner PCB assembly and other work.

WALNUT INDUSTRY IN THE WORLD: PROSPECTS FOR RESEARCH AND PRODUCTION
Economically sustainable walnut production in the future will depend on the development of more efficient and more environmentally-acceptable orchard management practices. Development of copper-resistant strains of walnut blight or bacteriosis (Xanthomonas campestris pv. juglandis) necessitates accelerated research on epidemiology and control of this most destructive disease. Alternative sustainable pest management practices will be required for the control of Codling moth (Cydia/Carpocapsa/Laspeyresia pomonella), the key walnut pest.
Increasing costs and more limited water availability and quality will continue to encourage the use of more efficient irrigation systems. However, increased irrigation will increase the likelihood of root and crown rot diseases (e.g. Phytophthora and Armillaria).
Emerging technological innovations will provide greater opportunity for more rapid communication and the benefits of increased exchange of ideas as we address the walnut problems of the future.

Labradorite and Blue Topaz Sterling Silver Necklace 103cm
✦✦ 3-3.5mm labradorite and 4x6mm blue topaz are wire wrapped in sterling silver. The length of the necklace is 103 cm
- When multiple necklaces are being worn, separate each chain a few times throughout the day, this will keep them from tangling.
- Remove your jewellery when exercising, cleaning, gardening, or any other physical work.
- Try to keep your jewellery away from any harsh cosmetics. This will cause for gold plating to erode, silver to tarnish and damage gemstones such as pearls at a much faster rate. These include; perfumes, soaps, lotions, and creams.
- Take rings off when washing your hands and showering, and applying perfume and lotions before you put on your jewellery.
- Every person's skin type is different, and so this can also effect your jewellery life. The acid in our skin can speed up the tarnishing process and damage gemstones such as pearls, but this will differ from person to person.
- Jewellery should always be taken off before entering a pool, shower or sea.

RCS reduction of integrated antenna arrays with resistive sheets
Publikation/Tidskrift/Serie: Journal Electromagnetic Waves and Applications
Dokumenttyp: Artikel i tidskrift
Förlag: VSP BV
Edge diffraction call be a major source of high radar visibility for integrated array antennas. In this paper, it is shown that tapered resistive sheets at the edges of the array can be used to transform the scattering properties of the antenna to that of a metallic plate and hence reduce the radar cross section. Numerical examples of kill array of self-complementary patches and a, bandpass frequency selective radome are presented to illustrate the. results. The RCS reduction is very good for TE polarization but, not IS efficient for the TM polarization.

The Richboro Elementary Meadow Project
Students in the Richboro Elementary Ecology Club have been planting a meadow each year since 2008. We were the first school in Council Rock School District to do so, and our project has inspired the District to plant four acres of meadows at several other Council Rock school locations.
Why plant meadows? Meadows provide habitats for more insects and other animals than green lawns. The first year we planted the meadow, we found two praying mantids had moved in! Additionally, meadows do not need to be mowed more than once a year, so they save fossil fuel. Below are photos and descriptions of our current meadow as well as meadows from previous years.
The Fourth Planting of
Richboro Elementary School's Meadow
Students in the Richboro Elementary School Ecology Club planted its fourth meadow this spring. Students sowed the flower seeds harvested last fall in the newly prepared plot. Additional native seeds, including sunflower and asters, were planted. Students and teachers look forward to seeing what surprises await when returning to school in the fall.
The Third Planting of
Richboro Elementary School's Meadow
The Ecology Club at Richboro Elementary School planted its meadow for a third growing season this April. Using seeds harvested from the meadow last fall, the club members, ranging from grades two through five, took turns planting seeds in a grid-like pattern across the meadow plot. Sunflower seeds were pushed into the ground with planting sticks, and the soil was raked to cover the seeds. As the club ended, the clouds gathered and watered the meadow, as if on cue. We look forward to watching our garden bloom as the seasons turn.
Richboro Elementary School's Meadow
The Ecology Club at Richboro Elementary School planted its meadow for a second growing season this April. The club, with over 40 students and 5 teachers, worked together to sow seeds on a drizzly, windy day. The seeds had been harvested by the students last fall from the meadow's first dried flowers. The charming sign, including drawings by 13 children, will be posted at the front of the meadow.
Richboro Elementary School's Meadow Blooms
and Seeds are Harvested
Last spring the Ecology Club at Richboro Elementary School planted seeds to create a meadow in the front of the building. Not certain how successful the meadow would be, the club members were greeted at the beginning of this school year by a surprisingly full field of colorful blooms. This fall the flowers matured to produce seeds. To complete the cycle, the Ecology Club plans to plant the seeds next spring.
The Earth Laughs in Flowers
Richboro Elementary School's Meadow Project
The Ecology Club at Richboro Elementary School planted a meadow for their final big project of the school year. Ecology Club students pulled out clumps of grass, and then teachers gave students seeds to plant in the plot. The students zig-zagged their way across the plot to ensure even coverage of the seeds. At the end of the day, each child received a small bag of seeds to plant at home with the saying, "The Earth Laughs in Flowers." The seeds had been sorted and packaged by students in the Autistic Support classes at Richboro Elementary.
The flowers hopefully will grow throughout the summer. In addition to adding beauty to the school, the meadow will reduce the fossil fuel needed to mow the grass all summer and will help insects gain a new home. The students and teachers look forward to seeing a wildflower meadow in full bloom at the beginning of the new school year in September.

Under the Office of Naval Research's Organic Mine Countermeasures Future Naval Capabilities (OMCM FNC) program, Lite Cycles, Inc. is developing an innovative and highly compact airborne active sensor system for mine and obstacle detection in very shallow water (VSW), through the surf-zone (SZ) and onto the beach. The system uses an
innovative LCI proprietary integrated scanner, detector, and telescope (ISDT) receiver architecture. The ISD tightly couples all receiver components and LIDAR electronics to achieve the system compaction required for tactical UAVintegration while providing a large aperture. It also includes an advanced compact multifunction laser transmitter; an industry-first high-resolution, compact 3-D camera, a scanning function for wide area search, and temporally
displaced multiple looks on the fly over the ocean surface for clutter reduction. Additionally, the laser will provide time-multiplexed multi-color output to perform day/night multispectral imaging for beach surveillance. New processing algorithms for mine detection in the very challenging surf-zone clutter environment are under development, which offer the potential for significant processing gains in comparison to the legacy approaches. This paper reviews the legacy system approaches, describes the mission challenges, and provides an overview of the ROAR system architecture.

Supporting PnP and Power Management in Your Driver
By default, the framework handles all PnP and power management requests that the system sends to framework-based drivers. Additionally, by default, the framework delivers I/O requests to a function driver only if the driver's hardware is available and in its working (D0) state.
When writing a framework-based driver, you can use much of the framework's default behavior to easily support the PnP and power management capabilities of your device. However, if all of the drivers in your driver stack used only the framework's default PnP and power management behavior, your device probably would not work properly. For example, the device's function driver might have to enable the device when the device enters its working (D0) state.
Therefore, the framework device object provides a set of event callback functions and a set of object methods that enable framework-based drivers to participate in PnP and power management operations. These callback functions and object methods allow each driver in the stack to provide only the PnP and power management support that is necessary.
Typically, each of the various drivers in a driver stack is responsible for supporting a few PnP and power management operations. The operations that a driver must support depend on the type of driver that you are writing and the capabilities that the device provides. For more information about which operations your driver should support, see:

The forming cyclic loads on the offshore structures during ice field edge fracture
The non-stationary process of ice breaking at the contact of the edge of a drifting ice field (IF) and the sea ice-resistant platform (IRP) can lead to dangerous vibrations and potentially dangerous dynamic loads on this offshore structure. Extreme resonant oscillations of the platform base can cause not only violations of the regular functioning of the object, but also significantly reduce the reliability of the structure and its durability, causing fatigue fracture in the structure of the IRP or its equipment, also such process can change the bearing capacity of the soil under the platform foundation. Dynamic ice destruction is a complex process, and the development of models of this phenomenon requires a well defined methodology and research procedure. The dynamic reaction of the structure on impact of the ice field depends on a combination of many factors: the size and flexibility of the impacted leg of the platform; the ice loading velocity, temperature and physical-mechanical parameters of ice, and others. The object of this research is the physical processes involved in the real system "IF-IRP" - the energy transfer from the moving ice fields to the control volume of ice in the contact area, accumulates the elastic energy received to its critical level in this volume and causes its destruction with a certain frequency. The most important property of the object of study, i.e. the subject of the research, is the mechanism of ice fracture in the zone of interaction of two basic elements of the system: the ice field and IRP. The aim of the study is to identify and describe the regularities of formation of cyclic ice loads on the structureand describe the process, taking into account the phenomenological features of sea ice fracture as a mechanism for converting the kinetic energy of the ice field into the elastic energy spent on to deviations leg of the platform and the energy spent on destructing the ice.

RESUMO
Objective: To construct of a terahertz metamaterial sensing method for detection of microRNA-21 (miRNA-21) based on duplex-specific nuclease triggered rolling circle amplification. Methods: First, a THz metamaterial sensing method was constructed, and verified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and zeta potential; after optimizing the detection conditions of the sensor, different concentrations of miRNA-21 and other different miRNAs were detected. And this biosensor was compared with other miRNA detection methods; finally, the recovery rate of the biosensor was evaluated. Results: Under the optimal experimental conditions, through the dual signal amplification strategy of duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) cycle recognition and rolling circle amplification (RCA), the THz metamaterial sensor has a response range of 10 fmol/L to 10 nmol/L to the target miRNA-21, with a detection limit of 8.49 fmol/L. And the biosensor has good specificity with the ability to recognize the target miRNA-21 from a variety of microRNAs. And the experiment with recovery rate from 94.33% to 115.33% has been further verified in commercial human serum samples. Conclusion: The terahertz biosensor can achieve highly sensitive and specific detection of the target miRNA-21, which proves the potential for label-free diagnosis and early warning of miRNA-related diseases.

RESUMO
Due to its insidious nature, chronic liver disease usually only appears after a decompensating event, and delays in diagnosis lead to a high mortality. Non-invasive examination can help diagnose and intervene early stage liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease. In a hospital population, this test has been widely used and appropriate; however, its value is unclear in the general community population. In recent years, there have been many studies on non-invasive examinations for foreign community populations. These non-invasive examination tools can screen patients with chronic liver disease and liver cirrhosis among the general community population. Further studies have found that screening community populations with liver disease risk factors (heavy alcohol consumption, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and obesity) can more efficiently screen out patients with chronic liver disease in the community population. In brief, these noninvasive examination can find a large number of previously undiscovered liver disease patients in the community population, compared to traditional community screening that rely on abnormal liver function testing. This paper discusses the non-invasive examination in the screening of chronic liver disease among the community population, so as to find a pioneering community non-invasive liver disease screening path for our country.

RESUMO
Objective: To analyze the clinical value and predictive difference of serum Golgi protein 73 (GP73) and serum autophagy-related protein p62 levels in the short-term prognosis of patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). Methods: Clinical data of admitted cases to our hospital from October 2018 to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Simultaneously, there were 32 cases with HBV-related ACLF in group A, 65 cases with hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis in group B and C (Child-Pugh Class A, 34 cases as B group, and Child-Pugh B/C class, 31 cases as group C), and another 30 healthy subjects served as the control group (group D). The serum GP73 and p62 levels of the four selected groups were measured. ACLF group patients were followed up for 3 months to analyze the prognosis of the patients. The serum GP73 and p62 levels of patients who died and survived during hospitalization were compared. The data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, independent sample t-test, and Pearson's correlation analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the predictive value of GP73 and p62 levels in surviving patients. Results: GP73 levels in the four groups A, B, C and D were (284.30 ± 70.55) ng/ml, (125.33 ± 20.57) ng/ml, (159.82 ± 31.20) ng/ml, and (45.46 ± 10.22) ng/ml, respectively. The p62 levels were (1.30 ± 0.35) ng/ml, (2.88 ± 0.58) ng/ml, (2.02 ± 0.545) ng/ml, and (4.68 ± 1.03) ng/ml, respectively. GP73 detection value was significantly higher in group A than the other three groups (P < 0.05). Group D had significantly lower value than the other three groups (P < 0.05), and group C had significantly higher value than group B (P < 0.05). The detection value of p62 in group A was significantly lower than the other three groups (P < 0.05). Group D had significantly higher value than the other three groups (P < 0.05), and group B had slightly higher value than group C, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was a negative correlation between GP73 and p62 (r = -0.695, P < 0.001). Survived patients GP73 level in the ACLF group was significantly lower than dead patients [(212.17 ± 22.47) ng/ml and (340.08 ± 32.91) ng/ml, t = 12.493, P < 0.05], and p62 level was significantly higher than dead patients [(1.46 ± 0.28) ng/ml and (1.18 ± 0.35) ng/ml, t = 2.445, P < 0.05]. According to the ROC curve analysis results, the area under the curve (AUC) of GP73 was 0.865, the AUC of p62 was 0.750, and the combined AUC of the both was 0.968. Conclusion: Both GP73 and p62 have a certain predictive value for the short-term prognosis of HBV-related ACLF patients, but the combination of the two indicators has a higher predictive value.

A Walk in the Park
Professor Fabian Wagmister unveils an experimental mobile website for the Los Angeles State Historic Park
On Thursday, Oct. 16, Associate Professor Fabian Wagmister, director of UCLA Center for Research in Engineering, Media and Performance (REMAP) celebrated the public release of LASHP Trails, an experimental mobile website he developed with his team at UCLA REMAP's Interpretive Media Laboratory (IMLab). The result of 10 years of research and featuring urban paths that explore the past, present and future of the neighborhoods surrounding the Los Angeles State Historic Park (LASHP), the website is the first site-specific historic storytelling environment in Los Angeles. Wellspring, an original, digitally interactive sculpture that serves as the mobile website's trailhead, was also revealed during an afternoon ceremony that took place under Los Angeles' North Broadway Bridge and was attended by Peter Marx, chief innovation technology officer for the City of Los Angeles; Craig Sap, Angeles District superintendent for California State Parks, and David Szymanski, superintendent of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. Designed in collaboration with artists Michael Parker and Troy Rounseville, Wellspring features interactive light and sound created by IMLab.
LASHP Trails, a partnership between UCLA REMAP, California State Parks, the National Park Service, the California Endowment and the City of Los Angeles, is the evolution of an idea that began with 60 students from Los Angeles' Franklin High School. In conjunction with staff from the National Parks Service and the Department of City Planning, the students designed urban trails connecting their neighborhoods to LASHP. The students envisioned the park as a "community trailhead" linking downtown, Chinatown, Northeast L.A., and the L.A. River with a healthy system of pedestrian and non-motorized transportation opportunities within a 650-acre area surrounding the park.
"Because of my extensive research in the history of the neighborhoods they were exploring I was invited to speak to them about the area," Wagmister says. "I was so inspired by their work I immediately started imagining a flexible digital media tool to allow many community groups to do their own interactive trails."
Wagmister and UCLA REMAP executive director Jeff Burke developed the concept of a mobile website that intensifies users' "connection to place" by exposing them to the often-hidden history and potential futures of the spaces in which they are physically standing. In doing so, Wagmister says, "we hope to make people more aware of the process of urban transformation, promote their civic engagement and empower them to participate." (Through the years, Wagmister adds, more than 30 student researchers contributed to the creation of the content. An "innumerable amount of community partners and members" were also instrumental in its creation, by sharing images and stories about their neighborhoods.) LASHP Trails marks one of IMLab's initial efforts to connect place-based content with the promotion of physical activity through urban trails near the park.
LASHP Trails is just the beginning. Wagmister and his team are already working on a much larger project that would enable community groups throughout the city to "create interconnected trails based on their identity, their needs and their aspirations," he says. "We hope such a system will connect with the city and with our fellow Angelinos."

The Codex Alimentarius Commission is the international body responsible for the execution of the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. Created in 1962 by FAO and WHO the Programme is aimed at protecting the health of consumers and facilitating international trade in foods.
The Codex Alimentarius (Latin, meaning Food Law or Code) is a collection of international food standards adopted by the Commission and presented in a uniform manner. It includes standards for all the principal foods, whether processed or semi-processed or raw. Materials for further processing into foods are included to the extent necessary to achieve the purposes of the Codex Alimentarius as defined. The Codex Alimentarius includes provisions in respect of the hygienic and nutritional quality of food, including microbiological norms, provisions for food additives, pesticide residues, contaminants, labelling and presentations, and methods of analysis and sampling. It also includes provisions of an advisory nature in the form of codes of practice, guidelines and other recommended measures.
This is the second publication of the Codex Alimentarius. The first publication was in 1981. Prior to 1981 standards adopted by the Codex Alimentarius were published individually as Recommended Standards (CAC/RS series).
The Second Edition of the Codex Alimentarius is now being revised and updated to take into account decisions made by the 23rd and 24th Sessions of the Codex Alimentarius Commission.


Preventing injury in sporting dogs
Preventing injury in sporting dogs
Practice makes perfect—and possibly for fewer injuries. By discussing with owners the right conditioning tailored to dogs based on the activity they participate in, you can prolong your patients' healthy participation in canine sports.
Apr 01, 2012
Recently, sporting events for dogs and their owners have increased in number and popularity, with more than 940,000 entries in 2,461 American Kennel Club-sponsored agility trials recorded in 2010 alone.1 The North American Flyball Association registers more than 16,000 dogs a year in their events, and no breed or age restrictions are placed on the canine participants.2
Many pet owners enroll their dogs in sporting activities without prior knowledge of the sport and what injuries can occur, as outlined in the previous article, "Sporting dog injuries." Unfortunately, there is scant research on the risks to dogs engaging in these sports and on what is required to prevent injuries. But much research involving people and horses has been performed and can be extrapolated to dogs to help us educate owners and trainers and prevent injury in sporting dogs. By preventing injury, our goal is also to sustain performance and allow dogs to participate in sports for many years.
In people, maintenance of fitness is often defined as at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity activity a day.3 Fitness in dogs has not been fully defined, and no physiologic studies have adequately determined canine fitness. But the required fitness level of a sporting dog depends on the sport it engages in and should be adapted to the amount of exertion, agility, and endurance required for the sport.4 A dog's training should reflect that effort and try to mimic the conditions as much as possible—this concept is termed specificity.4 The intensity and duration of exercises will vary depending on the sport the dog is training for.
Sled dogs must have high endurance and strength to pull a sled many hours over long distances and rough terrain. They must be exercised for extended periods every day and be required to strengthen muscles as well, so swimming would not be an appropriate exercise since it would not place the stress and strain on the musculoskeletal system that a sled would.
Herding dogs, similar to sled dogs, must have endurance for the long arduous task ahead.
Search and rescue
Search and rescue dogs must have endurance similar to that of sled dogs, while being able to navigate in never-before-experienced conditions. They must also have excellent balance to remain uninjured in conditions in which their safety may be in jeopardy.
Racing and coursing
Racing and coursing dogs can be subject to stress fractures since they often race on hard surfaces without shock absorption and always in the same direction on a circular or oval track.5 People participating in sprinting or military training can also experience stress fractures and muscle or tendon injuries by running on hard surfaces for extended training periods without proper orthotics.6,7
The skills racing greyhounds require are speed and strength. The large muscles needed for high speed have limited insertion to bones and tendons and, as such, can have the strength of force to rupture the relatively small tendons and origins to bones that attach to them, resulting in serious injury. Examples of common injuries in racing greyhounds include gracilis muscle and tensor fascia lata rupture.4,8
Field trials and hunting
Field trial dogs also require speed and strength, but agility is important as well to navigate the unpredictable terrain. They must also be acclimated to the environment or they risk suffering from severe dehydration and heat stroke. Hunting dogs often travel long distances but need only short bouts of strength, so their training should be geared toward sprinting, keeping in mind the difficult terrain they often face.
1. Flyball is a relay sport in which dogs on a team sequentially run down a series of jumps, hit a box to release a ball, catch the ball, and finally run back over the jumps to the starting line.
Flyball dogs require strength for the speedy navigation of the jumps, but they also must practice regularly to prevent injury. These dogs must be taught how to hit the platform and catch the ball in a manner that will not predispose them to chronic overuse injuries.4 Teaching them a "swimmer's turn," in which they hit the platform with their forelimbs to release the ball but push off the platform with their hindlimbs to reverse direction, may prevent forelimb injury that can result from twisting and pushing off the platform with the forelimbs (Figure 1).4
Agility dogs must be able to sprint and make sharp turns (balance) and, of course, be agile to run the course without injury. These skills require not only strength but also excellent balance and proprioception to prevent injury.

Santa Rosa Junior College People Empowering others to Realize Success Coalition (PEERS) will conduct a stress and sleep workshop from 4–6 p.m. on Oct. 16 at the Bertolini Student Center to help students cope with the stress and sleep deprivation of being a college student.
"Stress and sleep are in the top five health issues that impact student education," said PEERS Coalition student Maria Arreguin. "These are the top two issues that students want more information on."
PEERS is a student-run program within Student Health Services run by students that aims to raise awareness and reduce the stigma about mental health and foster a safe, inclusive environment that promotes student well being.
According to PEERS, 43% of students reported sleep was the cause of difficulties in the last 12 months. Over 50% of students reported dealing with above-average stress, with 15% enduring major stress in that same time period. Approximately 44.6% of students reported feeling overwhelmed in the last month.
The workshop will be handing out guides regarding mental health as well as hosting presentations by therapists and conducting interactive mindfulness and guided breathing exercises. There will be free food for participants.
For more information on the workshop, students can email Maria Arreguin at [email protected] or call the PEERS office at _PHONE_

A living museum is a type of museum which recreates historical settings to simulate past time periods, providing visitors with an experiential interpretation of history. It is a type of museum that recreates to the fullest extent conditions of a culture, natural environment or historical period. Sometimes, a drama performing group of historical reenactment of historical scenes in historical buildings is considered as a living museum.
Comparison with open-air museum
An open-air museum is a special kind of a living museum. In a living museum, a visitor is using their senses. The objective is total immersion, designing exhibits so that visitors can experience the specific culture, environment or historical period using all the physical senses: sight, smell, sound, taste and touch. In an open-air museum, the exhibits are shown outside buildings, especially collections of houses, buildings, machines, rails etc. An open-air museum can be also a living museum, but this is not necessarily the case.
Authenticity and living history museums
A major concern at living history museums is the idea of authenticity. Living historians define authenticity as perfect simulation between a living history activity and the piece of the past it is meant to re-create. A major difference between living history museums and other historical interpretation is that at living history sites, the interpretation is usually given in the first-person present, versus the third-person past narratives given at other sites. Living history museums seek to convey to visitors the experience of what it felt like to live in the past. Critics of living history museums argue that replication of past states of mind is impossible, and therefore living history is inherently inaccurate.

It consists merely in an application of those "rules of the road" which are practically on the road so little attended to.
The Denison Bridge, a three-span wrought iron bridge, is an early metal truss bridge built in 1870. Its advanced design was a major engineering achievement at the time and represents the maximum achievable by truss spans. The bridge is associated with three important colonial engineers: William Christopher Bennett (Commissioner and Engineer for Roads), Gustavus Alphonse Morrell (Assistant Engineer and designer) and Peter Nicol Russell (P N Russell & Co). The bridge is a prominent local landmark which has played an important role in the history of Bathurst and the Central West. It was the fifth oldest metal truss bridge in Australia until recently but is still the second oldest in NSW (after Gundagai 1867).
Denison Bridge was listed on the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 1 August 2003 having satisfied the following criteria.
The place is important in demonstrating the course, or pattern, of cultural or natural history in New South Wales.
Denison Bridge is of state significance as the fifth oldest metal truss bridge in Australia until recently and the second oldest in NSW (after Gundagai 1867). Further, the bridge is a significant technical accomplishment in the management of compressive and tension forces in metal truss members. Its design and innovative solution to the pressures of compression and tension is of historical significance in demonstrating the development of engineering and truss bridge technology.
Completed in 1870, it replaces an earlier bridge that was opened in 1856 and destroyed in 1867. The present bridge is a metal truss bridge and is currently the fourth oldest existing Australian metal trusses, following Hawthorn (1861), Gundagai Road Bridge (1867) and Redesdale (1868).
It is the oldest Pratt type truss bridge in NSW and the oldest of four colonial bridges in Bathurst. Its fabrication and erection are important as it used substantial amounts of materials and skills already available in the colony with subsequent economic benefits to the government. It is significant for being in almost continual use throughout its 120-year history as a road bridge which contributed significantly to the social stability and growth of Bathurst, making possible the continuous flow of people and goods between Sydney and the western districts of New South Wales.
The place has a strong or special association with a person, or group of persons, of importance of cultural or natural history of New South Wales's history.
The Denison Bridge is of state significance for its associations with three important colonial engineers: the government engineers W. C. Bennett and G. A Morell; and P N Russell, who formed P. N. Russell and Co and was a major benefactor of the University of Sydney.
The Denison Bridge is also significant for its association, through its name, with Sir William Denison, Governor of New South Wales _PHONE_.
The place is important in demonstrating aesthetic characteristics and/or a high degree of creative or technical achievement in New South Wales.
The Denison Bridge is of state significance for its technical sophistication and innovation. The structure incorporates an innovative and practical solution to the problem of lateral buckling of the compression top chords of each truss, which was years ahead of the theoretical solution and is of historical significance in demonstrating the development of engineering and truss bridge technology. This solution allowed the length of the bridge to approach the structural limit of truss bridge technology. The clean, open arrangement of members and joints made for easy maintenance which contributed greatly to its long service life.
Spanning the Macquarie River and Morse and Berry Parks, the Denison Bridge is locally significant as a prominent engineering landmark and enjoys a picturesque setting.
The place has a strong or special association with a particular community or cultural group in New South Wales for social, cultural or spiritual reasons.
The Denison Bridge has local significance as an engineering landmark. This significance is demonstrated by its inclusion in the Bathurst Heritage Study, the Register of the National Trust, an Historic Engineering Marker plaque from Engineers Australia (formerly IE Aust) in 1994 and the Register of the National Estate.
The place has potential to yield information that will contribute to an understanding of the cultural or natural history of New South Wales.
The Denison Bridge is of state significance as an engineering achievement. Through the distribution of its ironwork the fabric displays the types of forces, compression and tension generated in the members of trusses.
It is unlikely to display any archaeological significance in relation to previous occupation due to the riverine environment and unlikely to display any archaeological potential in relation to the earlier bridge.
The place possesses uncommon, rare or endangered aspects of the cultural or natural history of New South Wales.
The Denison Bridge is rare. It is of state significance as the fifth oldest early metal truss bridge in colonial Australia, and second oldest in NSW after Gundagai (built 1867).
The place is important in demonstrating the principal characteristics of a class of cultural or natural places/environments in New South Wales.
The Denison Bridge is one of a number of early metal truss bridges in colonial Australia and is representative of its type. It is, however, the second oldest in New South Wales (after Gundagai) and is technologically innovative. This bridge was the first American type Pratt truss in NSW.
