Choice of Law
Choice of law refers to issue of what jurisdiction's law is to be applied in a particular case. This situation often arises in contract disputes where the breach occurs in a state other than the state of contracting. As such, contracts often include a choice of law clause to indicate the law that will apply in the event of a dispute.
Courts faced with a choice of law issue generally choose between the laws of the state where the lawsuit was brought and laws of the state where the cause of action arose. Usually, the law of state where the lawsuit was brought is chosen for procedural matters. The law of the state where the cause of action arose is usually chosen to decide substantive matters.
The 14th amendment lays down constitutional limitations to choice of law. When a dispute has no connection to a given state, it is unconstitutional to apply the law of that state.
There are three basic types of approaches to choice of law:
 - The traditional "vested rights" doctrine: This doctrine is based on the notion that a state has the power to prescribe the rules of conduct for transactions or occurrences that take place in its own territory. Once the "last event" of the transaction or occurrence takes place on the territory of that state, the parties to it acquire "vested right" under the law of that jurisdiction.
 - The various "interest" and "policy" analysis approach: The interest of the forum state is the key factor to be considered under this approach. Thus, this theory seeks to increase the number of occasions when a forum court will apply its own law. This is done by applying the "comparative impairment" test, under which a court will compare the extent of damage that application of one or the other legal rule to the case would inflict on the competing states interest. The court should in such cases choose the rule that causes the lesser degree of impairment.
 - The "most significant relationship" theory of the Second Restatement: This theory attempts to determine which state has the "most significant relationship" to the case. To determine whether a more significant relationship exists, various factors are considered such as place of injury, place of the conduct causing injury, residence or place of business of the parties, and the place where any relationship between the parties is centered is taken into consideration.

Will we get more air passenger rights?
By | Category: Travel news
arriving planeYesterday, the European Parliament voted today on proposals from the European Commission to strengthen passenger rights. Will these happen given there is an election in May and that the new parliament will probably re-visit them in June?
If they do this is what is proposed by parliament.
 1. A strengthening of overseeing air carriers by national and European authorities (with tougher requirements on national authorities to monitor closely the performance of airlines and more effective sanctions.
 2. A right to care for passengers after a delay of 2 hours, for all flights irrespective of distance. (The Commission says 3)
 3. A passenger has a right to a response to their complaint within 2 months and an acknowledgement of a complaint within a week. The Parliament proposes in addition that the Commission define a common complaint form.
 4. Passengers to have a right to information about their situation, 30 minutes after a scheduled departure. In addition, the Parliament proposes to have contact points in the airports to inform passengers on the circumstances of their travel disruption and on what are the rights they are entitled to.
 5. Passengers have a right to be re-routed by another air carrier or transport mode in case of cancellation when the carrier cannot re-route on its own services. The Commission proposes that this right applies after 12 hours, the Parliament suggests a much lower limit of 8 hours.
 6. A right for a passenger to correct a spelling mistake in a name "free of charge."
 7. Assistance and compensation apply if you miss your connecting flight because the previous flight was late – however, the Parliament specifies that the compensation applies only where there is a delay of at least 90 minutes for the first flight.
It also said that there beeds to be a definition of "extraordinary circumstances" – e.g. strikes, storms, operational problems – which are outside the airline's control, so the carrier is not required to pay compensation. Parliament proposes that technical faults can almost never be exempt as is suggested by the Commission.
The EU Commission wants to limit liability to 3 nights, to give passengers the certainty of the care they need, in circumstances such as snow, storms, strikes (based practical experience over almost a decade shows that 3 nights covers passengers' needs). This would also give airlines some predictability when they budget for passenger rights. The Parliament proposes to raise the limit to 5 nights.
Finally, the Parliament proposes to impose on airlines an obligation to take insurance in case of bankruptcy (insolvency). The aim is to ensure that passengers would be reimbursed the cost of their tickets and stranded passengers would be repatriated.
More on this in June after the elections.

Subject: Programs for Examination
Last Revised: 01/11/2018
To ensure timely and ongoing attention to programmatic vitality, all academic programs within the UMS will be examined annually for the (a) number of graduates being produced, (b) the number of undergraduate majors, and (c) the number of faculty available to the program. The Programs for Examination process is intended as a proactive mechanism by which to foster broader collaborative discussions among faculty and academic administrators regarding program size in the context of mission, quality, and sustainability.
- Programs for Examination Thresholds – Programs not meeting the thresholds listed below must be examined by the Chief Academic Officer (CAO) and other appropriate academic administrators, in collaboration with the faculty, the Chief Academic Officers Council (CAOC), and the UMS Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs (VCAA):
– number of graduates per year:
– Undergraduate: average five graduates per year over three years
– Master's: average of three graduates per year over three years
– Doctorate: average of two graduates per year over three years
– number of undergraduate majors: 15 (as determined by the number of active majors at the end of each academic year)
– number of tenure-track or just-cause eligible faculty: 3 (as determined by the headcount of faculty at the end of each academic year)
- Programs for Examination Academic Year Timeline –
a. By August 1 of each year – UMS IR office will provide a dashboard summary of graduates, majors and faculty by campus for each program in the UMS program inventory, and will have identified for the CAOs those programs not meeting the above thresholds;
b. In November of each year – each CAO will notify the VCAA of the following items for discussion with the CAOC:
i. reason(s) of why any program need not be examined further because of meeting critical university needs, regardless of the Programs for Examination criteria;
ii. programs not meeting the Programs for Examination criteria for which more examination is needed; for those programs for which questions remain, the CAO will communicate to the appropriate academic unit(s) the need for further information, analysis, discussion, etc.;
iii. progress on actions to address concerns for programs identified in the previous year of the Programs for Examination process;
c. In March of each year –
i.For discussion with the CAOC, the VCAA will have provided a written summary of those programs identified by the Programs for Examination process, but determined to meeting critical university needs.
ii.the CAOC will engage in a discussion of action plan outlines developed by each CAO to address low numbers of graduates, majors and/or faculty for any remaining program(s) identified by the Programs for Examination process.
- Other Considerations: Simple measures of numbers of graduates, majors and faculty are clearly only a subset of variables that provide insight into a program's role and function. Thus, for programs not meeting the thresholds, other considerations for subsequent discussions include: SCH production, provision of service courses, centrality to institutional mission or strategic plan, societal or workforce need, relevance and access to underrepresented groups, program uniqueness, K-12 or community college pathways, research impact, accreditation, ratio of part-time to full-time instructors, certification pass rates or other assessment outcomes, instructional cost, etc.


MacArtney's MBES Hydrographic System for Island of Corsica
MacArtney France has delivered a portable multi-beam echosounder hydrographic system, designed for small vessels, to the French government organisation, Collectivité de Corse, in Corsica.
The Collectivité de Corse, a government organisation, represents the interests of the community of Corsica – a Mediterranean island off the south coast of France.
With 1000 km of coastline, the island attracts many tourists and cruise ships creating the need for an MBES hydrographic system.
The purpose of the MBES hydrographic system is to ensure visiting vessels can securely navigate the harbours of the island, monitor the seabed to control the quality of dredging, identify obstructions on the sea floor and verify underwater installations.
MacArtney France worked with Kongsberg, Valeport and SBG Systems on this project to fulfill the project specific needs and supply an adaptable MBES hydrographic system that meets the standards set down by the International Hydrographic Organisation (IHO).
This new bathymetric system from MacArtney France will reduce survey time, increase accuracy, expand survey area reach and ensure a comprehensive hydrographic survey system.

Head-turning Approach to Eye-tracking in Immersive Virtual Environments
Reliable and unobtrusive eye tracking remains a technical challenge for immersive virtual environment, especially when Head Mounted Displays (HMD) are used for visualization and users are allowed to move freely in the environment. In this work, we provide experimental evidence that gaze direction can be safely approximated by user head rotation, in HMD-based Virtual Reality (VR) applications, where users actively interact with the environment. We discuss the application range of our approach and consider possible extensions.

Give the main theme or central idea of the poem 'Small Pain in My Chest' written by Michael Mack. / What is the poem Small Pain in My Chest all about? / What is the poet's message here?
The poem A Small Pain in My Chest begins with a soldier boy calling the narrator and asking his help. The narrator approaches the injured soldier boy and extends his help by offering him some water. After that that two have a conversation about how the boy got injured in war last night. The soldier boy expresses his feelings and thoughts in the course of the chat. But he could not survive his injuries that he calls "a small pain" in his chest, and finally died. The narrator was shocked at his death.
So, the poem is all about a soldier's confessions, thoughts and feelings before death, and the narrator's feelings at his death. Through this poem, the poet actually wants to evoke the pity of war in our minds and raise a war against war. The poem is an anti-war poem.

Serving youth and families of Maryland's First Judicial Circuit
First Judicial Circuit
Regional Program Manager
Nicole Higgins, Case Manager
Alison Bergeron, Case Manager
Myles Burgess, Case Manager
Alison Bergeron, Case Manager
The purpose of the Truancy Reduction Court Program (TRCP) is to improve school attendance and positively affect the youth and their family's attitudes about education through a nurturing approach. Every effort is made to ultimately build a relationship between the family, the school, and the court. Participation in the court's program brings families the added benefit and services of a court‐appointed case manager to determine the reasons for poor attendance, navigate school requirements, facilitate communication, and make referrals for community‐based services when appropriate.
Serving more than 259 youths and their families in the 2022 fiscal year, the TRCP is providing full-service truancy case management and utilizing a proactive approach designed to address the causes of truancy and improve the student's attendance, attachment, and achievement in the school environment. TRP serves as a proactive intervention rather than a punitive reaction.
Maryland's Truancy Reduction Program was first implemented during the 2001 school year. This problem-solving court was created to battle the oppressive volume of youth who were truant during that particular year. It has been widely noted that truant behavior is commonly linked to other forms of delinquency, thus leading to negative contact with law enforcement and subsequent incarceration.
In 2004, the General Assembly created the Truancy Reduction Pilot Program (HB1443) to serve the needs of students and families within Maryland's First Judicial Circuit. Codified at §3‐8C‐01 through §3‐8C‐10, the program, now simply known as the Truancy Reduction Court Program (TRCP), began in Wicomico County in December 2004. It continued to develop throughout the lower eastern shore with the additions of Somerset County (November 2005), Worcester County (January 2007), and Dorchester County (March 2007).
for Success in School and Life
- Set a regular bedtime and morning routine for your child.
- Lay out clothes, make lunches and pack backpacks the night before.
- Discuss the importance of school and attendance with your child.
- Follow the school's attendance policy for absence, late arrival, and early departure.
- Use email to submit absence notes directly to your child's school.
- Avoid appointments and extended trips when school is in session.
- Choose a school club or activity for your child to participate in for fun.
- Meet with your child's teacher or school counselor regularly.
- Download the school communication app to view attendance records regularly.
TRCP is a four-phase, six to nine-month program to engage with and help rehabilitate youth and families that have tolerated, fostered, or recently developed truant behavior by the youth.
Referrals to the Program are initiated upon the receipt of a truancy petition, filed by the local public school system in the county circuit court. The Program is not designed to supplant the initial administrative interventions taken by the local school system. The expectation of the court is that the local school system will continually make all available efforts to address unlawful absenteeism and barriers to attendance prior to the first appearance in court.
Families who have received a truancy petition from the court are encouraged to contact the truancy court case manager assigned to their county of residence.
The first appearance in court shall be for an adjudicatory hearing to determine if the youth is truant. The presiding magistrate shall inform the youth and their family of the purpose of the Program, the expectations of the Court, and deliver an age‐appropriate litany.
Most often immediately after a finding of truancy, the disposition hearing begins to uncover the reasons for truant behavior and determine the appropriateness of the youth and family for Program participation. Additionally, the Public School Liaison will share academic, conduct, and attendance history/challenges to allow the presiding magistrate a more holistic perspective of needs and relevant services.
Upon recommendation of the parties and Program staff, the presiding magistrate may order assessments and services as deemed necessary and the youth/family will formally enter the Program. All entries into the Program (even cases involving previous participants/graduates of the Program) begin at Phase One.
School Attendance in Maryland
Maryland law requires regular school attendance unless a student is excused with a lawful absence. This applies to youth who reside in the state and are five years and older up to the age of 18. Once a child has reached the age of 18, he or she is no longer required by law to be enrolled in school. Md. Code Ann., Educ., §7-301
Under Maryland law, a truant youth is one who is unlawfully absent from school for more than 8 days in any quarter, 15 days in any semester, or 20 days in a school year.
Md. Code Ann., Educ., §7-302.2
An absence, including absence for any portion of the day, for any reason other than those cited as lawful (below) is presumed to be unlawful and may constitute truancy.
Md. Code Regs. 13A.08.01.04
Students presently enrolled in public schools are considered lawfully absent from school, including absence for any portion of the day, only under the following conditions:
- Death in the immediate family. The local school system shall determine what relationships constitute the immediate family.
- Illness of the student. The principal or a pupil personnel worker shall require a physician's certificate from the parent or guardians of a student reported continuously absent for illness.
- Pregnancy and parenting-related conditions as determined by the local school system, including absences due to:
- Labor, delivery, recovery, and prenatal and postnatal medical appointments;
- Illness or a medical appointment of the student's child; and
- A legal appointment involving the pregnant or parenting student related to family law proceedings, including adoption, custody, and visitation.
- Court summons.
- Hazardous weather conditions. Hazardous weather conditions shall be interpreted to mean weather conditions which would endanger the health or safety of the student when in transit to and from school.
- Work approved or sponsored by the school, the local school system, or the State Department of Education, accepted by the local superintendent of schools or the school principal, or their designees as reason for excusing the students.
- Observance of a religious holiday.
- State emergency.
- Lack of authorized transportation. This does not include students denied authorized transportation for disciplinary reasons.
- Other emergency or set of circumstances which, in the judgment of the superintendent or designee, constitutes a good and sufficient cause for absence from school.

Estimated Arrival: Between Apr 18 and Apr 22. *ETA to USA Only
Exorcist: The Beginning is a 2004 horror film directed by Renny Harlin and starring Stellan Skarsgård. The film is a prequel to the original 1973 classic horror film, "The Exorcist", and explores the backstory of the demonic possession that takes place in the original film.
The film is set in 1949 and follows Father Lankester Merrin, played by Skarsgård, as he is sent to Africa to investigate an archaeological dig site that may have unearthed a significant religious artifact. However, as he begins to uncover the dark secrets of the site, he finds himself in the middle of a battle between good and evil, ultimately leading to a harrowing exorcism.
The movie explores themes of faith, evil, and the power of belief. The character of Father Merrin is portrayed as a deeply flawed but determined priest struggling to come to terms with his faith and the horrors he witnesses. The film also incorporates elements of African mythology and colonialism, which add to the film's overall sense of unease and horror.
While the film received mixed reviews from critics, it still garnered a following among horror movie fans for its intense and unsettling atmosphere, as well as for its connection to the iconic original film. "Exorcist: The Beginning" is a must-watch for fans of the horror genre and for those interested in exploring the deeper themes and questions raised by the concept of demonic possession.

Teaching Reading In Clarksburg, W.Va.
So far this year 21 tutors — under the aegis of Literacy Volunteers of Harrison County — have helped 80 students in and around Clarksburg and Harrison County.
"Many of the adults we tutor have lost their jobs, and now find themselves ill-equipped to find employment in today's job market," says Director Kim Payne. "Most of them are working toward a GED, but many of them have high school diplomas. However, the workplace has changed over the years, and now most jobs require not only higher reading and math levels, but computer skills as well."
So LVHC teaches computer skills, too.

What are the main factors that affect my CIBIL score?
Many factors affect your credit score, the following being the five main ones:
 - Default or Settled status: Status of your loans is listed in the report. Nothing brings your score down more severely than a loan that has not been paid (defaulted) or has been paid only partially (settled).
 - Late payments: Paying your payments late can also hurt your score big time. The more payments you miss, the worse will be your score.
 - High credit utilization ratio: How much percentage of your total credit you use each month also affects your score. Your score drops when you have a high credit utilization ratio.
 - Unhealthy secured to unsecured loan ration: Secured loans include collateral while unsecured ones don't. If you only have unsecured loans, like personal loans, or most of your loans are unsecured loans, your score will be adversely impacted.
 - Exhibiting "Credit Hungry" behavior: Seeking out too many loans in a short period is described as "Credit Hungry". Such a behavior is unfavorably looked at by lenders.

Target Another Frame
One of the "drawbacks" in using @URLOpen as a hotspot formula is that you can't target another frame or a blank window. Or so you thought... There is a way to do this.
You have to know a little bit about what Domino generates. When you do an @URLOpen("_URL_") as an action hotspot around the word Home then Domino generates the following HTML:
Home
And if you know your HTML, then to have that link targeted to the frame called "Right", here's the HTML you will need:
Home
So, take a look at what Domino generates. Everything between the quotes in your @URLOpen statement is between quotes in the href HTML tag. Basically, here's how it works:
@URLOpen("blah") =
@URLOpen("blah\"") =
@URLOpen("blah\"blah") =
See where this is going? If you want to get to the line where we coded the target parameter, all you have to do is force the href url closed, then add your own target and let Domino close the quote on the target part when it thinks it's closing the quote on the url. For example:
This code:
@URLOpen("_URL_\" target=\"Right")
... will be translated by domino to ...

which is just what we want!!
If you're using the simple action URL link instead of @URLOpen, you can still use this technique. Instead of using a slash quote, just include a quote in the URL name. For example,
_URL_" target="Right

Open-source, Python-based, hardware and software for controlling behavioural neuroscience experiments.
Akam T., Lustig A., Rowland JM., Kapanaiah SK., Esteve-Agraz J., Panniello M., Márquez C., Kohl MM., Kätzel D., Costa RM., Walton ME.
Laboratory behavioural tasks are an essential research tool. As questions asked of behaviour and brain activity become more sophisticated, the ability to specify and run richly structured tasks becomes more important. An increasing focus on reproducibility also necessitates accurate communication of task logic to other researchers. To these ends, we developed pyControl, a system of open-source hardware and software for controlling behavioural experiments comprising a simple yet flexible Python-based syntax for specifying tasks as extended state machines, hardware modules for building behavioural setups, and a graphical user interface designed for efficiently running high-throughput experiments on many setups in parallel, all with extensive online documentation. These tools make it quicker, easier, and cheaper to implement rich behavioural tasks at scale. As important, pyControl facilitates communication and reproducibility of behavioural experiments through a highly readable task definition syntax and self-documenting features. Here, we outline the system's design and rationale, present validation experiments characterising system performance, and demonstrate example applications in freely moving and head-fixed mouse behaviour.

We recommend chemical well development in areas where the ground contains organic material. For thermal storage wells especially – where water is also injected into the ground – organic material in the soil can cause many unnecessary problems.
This method ensures the maximum capacity from a well, and significantly increases the maintenance interval.
During chemical development of a well, we insert regeneration agents on a section-by-section basis. This method loosens and dissolves any organic materials that are present. Organic blockages are efficiently dealt with using this method. The regeneration agent that is applied neutralizes upon reaction in the well and is therefore environmentally friendly.

From Institution to Inclusion: The History of disAbilities in Oklahoma exhibit opens
March 8, 2022
To celebrate People with Disabilities Awareness Day on March 8, the Oklahoma Historical Society's (OHS) John and Eleanor Kirkpatrick Research Center opened the interactive exhibit From Institution to Inclusion: The History of disAbilities in Oklahoma on the first floor of the Oklahoma History Center.
Through digital photographs, From Institution to Inclusion will highlight Oklahoma's disability pioneers. Guests will view images of the institutions, legislators, and citizens who fought to break down barriers; the organizations making a difference today; and self-advocates who continue to lead the charge for change. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore historical items from OHS collections, including ledgers from the Cherokee Insane Asylum dating to 1879, an iron lung used for treating polio, and examples of the evolution of prosthetics and assistive devices. The exhibit will offer a unique, hands-on experience in which visitors can move their fingertips across the lines of a braille textbook, use a weighted blanket, and become acquainted with modern daily living assistive devices.

Animalcule
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Animalcule ('little animal', from Latin animal + the diminutive suffix -culum) is an old term for a microscopic organisms that included bacteria, protozoans, and very small animals. The word was invented by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek to refer to the microorganisms he observed in rainwater.
Some better-known types of animalcule include:
The concept seems to have been proposed at least as early as about 30 BC, as evidenced by this translation from Marcus Varro's Rerum Rusticarum Libri Tres:
Note also if there be any swampy ground, both for the reasons given above, and because certain minute animals, invisible to the eye, breed there, and, borne by the air, reach the inside of the body by way of the mouth and nose, and cause diseases which are difficult to be rid of.[1]
The term was also used during the 17th century by Henry Oldenburg, the first Secretary of the Royal Society and founding editor of Philosophical Transactions, to translate the Dutch words used by Anton van Leeuwenhoek to describe microorganisms that he discovered.[2]
In Gilbert and Sullivan's The Pirates of Penzance, the word appears in adjectival form in the 'Major-General's Song', in which Major-General Stanley sings, 'I know the scientific names of beings animalculous...' [3]

A comprehensive multirotor noise assessment framework is developed to predict the noise of rotational-speed-controlled rotor configurations in real-time. The key objectives are to synthesize the frequency-modulated multirotor noise and analyze the frequency modulation (FM) characteristics. The framework includes modules associated with the flight control, aerodynamics, time reconstruction, noise prediction, and time-frequency analysis (TFA). In addition to the hybrid blade element momentum model, the aerodynamics module contains a linear inflow model, a Beddoes wake model, and an unsteady aerodynamic correction model. The convective form and source-time dominant algorithms are used in the acoustic analogy for tonal noise prediction. The FM characteristics are identified using the synchrosqueezing-based high-resolution TFA for strongly non-stationary signals. The framework is verified through validation and verification studies for diverse rotor configurations and flight conditions. During the cruise flight of the multirotor, the tonal noise exhibits simultaneous frequency and amplitude modulations. In wind gust conditions, these modulations result from rotational speed variations, acoustic wave interference, and Doppler shifting. By clarifying the non-stationary noise signal in diverse flight environments, the proposed framework can facilitate noise assessment in the perception-influenced design stage of multirotor configurations.

Jerome Jay Wolken, a biophysicist at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who delved into the mysteries of sight and light and invented a lens system that gave sight to some legally blind people, died on May 10 at his home in Pittsburgh. He was 82.
Dr. Wolken's Light Concentrating Lens System, developed in the 1980's and used in eyeglasses, opened new vistas on medical science, photography, astronomy and the collection of sunlight. One of the patents for the system involves a pear-shaped lens 10 times more sensitive to light than a standard camera lens.
The system reproduced the lenses that deep-sea creatures adapted over millions of years to see objects at depths of up to 1,500 feet in almost total darkness. The key was a special geometric relationship between the curvature of the top and the curvature of the bottom of the lens.
Made of glass or plastic for an eyeglass frame, the system increased the light-gathering ability of eyes that could not send enough light to their retinas. It was used primarily by people with cataracts.
In researching deep-sea optics, Dr. Wolken worked with the Marine Biological Laboratory and the Oceanographic Research Institute at Woods Hole on Cape Cod, Mass., and with similar institutions in Miami, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Europe and Japan. He applied his findings to lenses of enhanced photosensitivity.
Jerome Jay Wolken was born in Pittsburgh and received a bachelor's degree in chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh in 1946. He received a master's degree in biological sciences in 1948 and a Ph.D. in biophysics in 1949, both from Pittsburgh, where he taught in the 1950's and was named a professor of biophysics physiology in 1962.
Two years later, Carnegie Mellon appointed Dr. Wolken a professor and head of the biological sciences department at Morrison Carnegie College. He wrote nine books in his field, edited two more and contributed some 120 papers to scientific journals. He retired in 1982, but he continued his work until recently.
Dr. Wolken is survived by his wife of 43 years, Tobey Holstein Wolken; their daughter and son, Johanna Zorn of Chicago and Erik A., of Chapel Hill, N.C.; a daughter and son by an earlier marriage, Ann Wolken of Los Angeles, and Jonathan, of Washington Depot, Conn., and five grandchildren. His first wife, Dorothy Mallinger Wolken, died in 1954.


Objective
Play audio with VLC in Python.
Distributions
This will work on any Linux distribution
Requirements
A working Linux install with Python and VLC.
Difficulty
Easy
Conventions
 - # - requires given command to be executed with root privileges either directly as a root user or by use of sudo command
 - $ - given command to be executed as a regular non-privileged user
Introduction
There are plenty of ways to play audio files with Python. It really depends on your application, but the easiest way, by far, is to use the bindings for VLC to control VLC with Python, and play your files.
With VLC, you don't need to worry about codecs and file support. It also doesn't require too many complicated methods, and/or objects. So, for simple audio playback, VLC is best.
Get The VLC Bindings
The VLC bindings are actually developed and maintained by VLC. That said, the easiest way is still to use pip
# pip install python-vlc
Of course, if this is for a single project, use virtualenv instead.
Set Up Your File
Creating your file is very simple. You only need to import the VLC module.
import VLC
That's really all. You can use the module to create MediaPlayer instances, and that's what's necessary to play audio.
Create A Media Player Object
Again, the VLC module is super easy to use. You only need to instantiate a MediaPlayer object and pass it the audio file that you want to play. VLC can handle virtually any file type, so you don't need to worry about compatibility.
player = vlc.MediaPlayer("/path/to/file.flac")
Play A Song
Playing a file from an existing object is even easier. You only need to call the play method on the object, and Python will begin playing it. When the playback finishes, it will stop. There's no looping or any nonsense like that.
player.play()
Stopping And Pause
The VLC bindings make it easy to stop or pause a file once you've started playing it too. There is a pause method that will pause playback if the file is playing.
player.pause()
If the player is already paused, calling the method again will resume playback. To stop a file altogether, call the stop method.
player.stop
Looping And "Playlists"
You can actually create pseudo-playlists with this, and loop through the songs that you've added. It would only take a basic for loop.
playlist = ['/path/to/song1.flac', '/path/to/song2.flac', 'path/to/song3.flac']
for song in playlist:
 player = vlc.MediaPlayer(song)
 player.play()
That's obviously very rudimentary, but you can see how Python can script VLC.
Closing Thoughts
VLC isn't the only solution for playing audio with Python, and it certainly isn't the best in every situation, but it is very good for a lot of basic use cases. The greatest bonus of using VLC is the unbeatable simplicity.
Exercises
 1. Install the Python VLC bindings with pip in a virtual environment.
 2. Create a Python file and import the VLC bindings.
 3. Instantiate a player object to play a file.
 4. Play that file.
 5. Play the file again. Pause and resume playback.
 6. Create a loop to play multiple files in order.
 7. Challenge: Generate a list of files using Python modules to interact with directories on your system. Play them as a playlist.

European Journal of Molecular & Clinical Medicine,
2020, Volume 7, Issue 11, Pages 2562-2575
Abstractonline Learning is enacted as an effort to prevent the spread of covid-19. Various limitations and obstacles encountered during the process of online learning in the pandemic demanded adaptation better than educators and learners. Students need to do self-adjustment in learning and are expected to have the self efficacy to master and complete a task in online learning. Educators need to do the management of cognitive load in learning. The purpose of the study to determine the effect of self efficacy against the cognitive load in online learning in the pandemic covid-19. Quantitative research methods are correlational, involving 316 respondents. The process of data collection is done online. The results of the univariate analysis showed the majority of respondents have the level of self efficacy is high enough (27,2%), cognitive load category (73,1%). Most of the respondents have ICL the moderate category (66,8%), the ECL moderate category (71,8%) and all respondents have a GCL category (100%). Bivariate analysis using the correlation provided by kendall's tau-b shows there is significant influence the level of self efficacy of respondents to rate the cognitive load of the respondents where the value of Sig. (2-tailed) is 0.048% ownership of < 0.05, with the degree of influence of level of self efficacy of the respondents on the level of cognitive load that is very strong (of 0.96). Based on the results of the study, it is expected that lecturers can optimize the ability of students and develop values/character that support to increase self efficacy of students and make improvements learning strategies to reduce cognitive load of students.

Mathematical Analysis: Still-Water Gage.
LOUISIANA STATE UNIV BATON ROUGE COASTAL STUDIES INST
Pagination or Media Count:
A mathematical analysis of the response of a still-water gage to wave action was performed. The mean water level in the gage was shown to coincide with the mean level of the impinging waves for symmetric wave shapes. For asymmetric wave shapes the mean level in the gage may not coincide with the mean level of the impinging waves. Deviations between the mean levels are shown to be a function of height, shape, period of the wave, and the dimensions of the gage. Figures are given which allow prediction of the order of magnitude of the error for asymmetric waves. These figures may also be used to choose gage dimensions which minimize the inherent error.

Crate inflate
source ·
Expand description
A DEFLATE decoder written in rust.
This library provides functionality to decompress data compressed with the DEFLATE algorithm, both with and without a zlib header/trailer.
§Examples
The easiest way to get std::Vec<u8> containing the decompressed bytes is to use either inflate::inflate_bytes or inflate::inflate_bytes_zlib (depending on whether the encoded data has zlib headers and trailers or not). The following example decodes the DEFLATE encoded string "Hello, world" and prints it:
use inflate::inflate_bytes;
use std::str::from_utf8;
let encoded = [243, 72, 205, 201, 201, 215, 81, 40, 207, 47, 202, 73, 1, 0];
let decoded = inflate_bytes(&encoded).unwrap();
println!("{}", from_utf8(&decoded).unwrap()); // prints "Hello, world"
If you need more flexibility, then the library also provides an implementation of std::io::Writer in inflate::writer. Below is an example using an inflate::writer::InflateWriter to decode the DEFLATE encoded string "Hello, world":
use inflate::InflateWriter;
use std::io::Write;
use std::str::from_utf8;
let encoded = [243, 72, 205, 201, 201, 215, 81, 40, 207, 47, 202, 73, 1, 0];
let mut decoder = InflateWriter::new(Vec::new());
decoder.write(&encoded).unwrap();
let decoded = decoder.finish().unwrap();
println!("{}", from_utf8(&decoded).unwrap()); // prints "Hello, world"
Finally, if you need even more flexibility, or if you only want to depend on core, you can use the inflate::InflateStream API. The below example decodes an array of DEFLATE encoded bytes:
use inflate::InflateStream;
let data = [0x73, 0x49, 0x4d, 0xcb, 0x49, 0x2c, 0x49, 0x55, 0x00, 0x11, 0x00];
let mut inflater = InflateStream::new();
let mut out = Vec::<u8>::new();
let mut n = 0;
while n < data.len() {
 let res = inflater.update(&data[n..]);
 if let Ok((num_bytes_read, result)) = res {
 n += num_bytes_read;
 out.extend(result.iter().cloned());
 } else {
 res.unwrap();
 }
}
Structs§
Functions§
 - Decompress the given slice of DEFLATE compressed data.
 - Decompress the given slice of DEFLATE compressed (with zlib headers and trailers) data.
 - Decompress the given slice of DEFLATE compressed (with zlib headers and trailers) data, without calculating and validating the checksum.


Who Invented the Ferris Wheel?
Who Invented the Ferris Wheel?
Called by other names such as the big wheel or observation wheel, Ferris wheels are usually found in theme parks and amusement centers. Within this type of non-building structure, people can sit comfortably in passenger gondolas, which are attached to the rim and are set in a huge upright wheel. Today, you can find some of the biggest structures in countries like Japan, the United States as well as Taiwan. Aside from these wonderful details, there are so many other important things to learn about it including who invented the Ferris wheel.
The Invention of the Ferris Wheel
Who invented the Ferris wheel? The American inventor named George Washington Gale Ferris Jr. designed and invented the Ferris wheel in 1893. It was made for the World's Columbian Exposition that was held in the City of Chicago in Illinois. It was then called the Chicago Wheel, which he did as part of an effort to build something quite impressive just like the Eiffel Tower in France. After this huge event, every ride of similar nature was referred to as Ferris wheel.
Additional Facts and Other Interesting Details
The Ferris wheel was the centerpiece at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. It used two steam engines, which stood at the height of 260 feet or 80 meters. After that, it became part of the Saint Louis 1904 World's Fair. Throughout history, the world has seen different kinds of massive Ferris wheels.
After the Chicago Wheel, the Great Wheel was created in 1895 as part of the Empire of India Exhibition that was held Earls Court in London, England. In 1900, the Exposition Universelle was showcased at the Grande Roue de Paris in France, which lasted only until 1937. In 1997, the Tempozan Harbor Village Ferris Wheel opened in Osaka, Japan, which had a height of 369 feet or 112.5 meters. In 1999, a much taller structure was built in the form of the Daikanransha in Odaiba, Japan. This Ferris wheel is bigger at the height of 380 feet or 115 meters.
In 2000, then-British Prime Minister Tony Blair opened the London Eye in England. The structure was very impressive, which remains as the highest in the entire Western Hemisphere. Years after that, the Star of Nanchang opened in 2006 in Jiangxi Province, China. It stands 520 feet or 160 meters tall. In 2008, the tallest Ferris wheel was established in Singapore. It was called the Singapore Flyer, with a height of 541 feet or 165 meters. Aside from these, there are other massive structures of the same nature available such as the Eurowheel in Italy, the Sky Dream Fukuoka in Japan and the Riesenrad Vienna in Austria.

PROJECT TITLE :
TCAD-Based Simulation Method for the Electrolyte–Insulator–Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor
A simulation method for the electrolyte–insulator–semiconductor field-effect transistor (EISFET)-type sensor is proposed based on a well-established commercialized semiconductor 3-D technology computer-aided design simulator. The proposed method relies on the fact that an electrolyte can be described using a modified intrinsic semiconductor material because of the similarity between the electrolyte and the intrinsic semiconductor. The electrical double layer of the electrolyte is characterized in the simulation using the Gouy–Chapman–Stern model. Using the proposed simulation method, we extract the Debye lengths depending on phosphate buffered saline solutions with various concentrations and demonstrate that it is possible to simulate the screening effect. Furthermore, we investigate the responses of the EISFET-type silicon nanowire pH sensor based on our simulation method, which shows good agreement with the reported Nernst limit value.

Chinese e-commerce platforms are redoubling efforts to help farmers hit hard by the Covid-19 outbreak to sell their overstock agricultural products online.
Why it matters: Connecting farmers with e-commerce as a method of poverty alleviation has part of the government's agenda in recent years. During the Covid-19 outbreak and subsequent locality lockdowns, e-commerce has became a crucial sales and distribution channel for farmers.
- Shuttered brick-and-mortar produce markets, logistical interruptions, and labor shortages caused by the Covid-19 outbreak quashed the seasonal sales spike normally seen during the Spring Festival holiday week.
- Farmers are facing huge losses resulting from China's paralyzed economy as wholesalers aren't purchasing as normal during the outbreak. The Covid-19 effect on China's agricultural sector may be felt over the longer term due to the time needed for crop growing cycles.
Details: Major e-commerce sites like Alibaba, JD, and Pinduoduo have launched special campaigns and subsidy funds to facilitate online sales of fresh produce.
- Pinduoduo unveiled on Feb. 10 a special campaign for direct-from-farm produce, listing fruits and vegetables from nearly 400 agricultural areas countrywide. Of the total, 230 are officially recognized poverty-stricken counties.
- The Shanghai-based firm also allocated RMB 500 million ($71 million) in subsidies in the form of coupons or discounts for buyers to apply to purchases of applicable produce.
- The company said that in addition to the subsidy fund, it also allocates RMB 2 per order to farmers to assist with logistical costs.
- The company has not responded to requests for specifics about the subsidies. Pinduoduo does not hold inventory and users purchase the produce directly from farmers listed on the platform.
- Alibaba's Taobao is setting up a RMB 1 billion fund for the initiative. The company is maximizing advertising reach for the produce by linking customers with a dedicated landing page on Taobao's home page.
- JD launched on Feb. 11 a dedicated sales channel for farmers affected by the crisis to sell their produce.
Context: E-commerce has become an important sales channel for farmers, especially those in remote areas.
- Thanks to the rise of content-driven e-commerce, tech companies from e-commerce giant Alibaba to short video apps like Douyin and Kuaishou are leveraging livestreams and videos to boost online sales.
- Pinduoduo earned sales revenue of more than RMB 65 billion in 2018 from a special program that sells farm produce from poverty-stricken regions.


abs
Welcome to our newly overhauled Zephyr pages! See our new Overview, Examples, and Index.
Feedback is welcome at bottom of each page.
Return the absolute value of a number.
float abs( float number )
Examples
{abs(3.2)} = 3.2
{abs(-3.2)} = 3.2
Show a Prompt for a User to Login Based on a "last_login_date" Custom Field
Use Case: You're storing as a user variable "last_login_date" and want to find the number of days since a user last logged in. Using abs(), time(), and int(), you can output a reader-friendly to encourage people to log back in.
Zephyr:
{daysSinceLastLogin = (time(last_login_date) - time("now"))/86400}
{friendlyDays = int(abs(daysSinceLastLogin))}
You haven't logged in in the past {friendlyDays} days!
Output:
On the user profile:
zephyr example last_login_date
"You haven't logged in in the past 5 days!"
Explanation: This script uses the time() function to create a UNIX timestamp of each user's last_login_date, which then subtracts the value of the current UNIX timestamp, and finally divided by 86400, the number of seconds in a day. This provides the number of days since the user's last login, which is display as a negative float number, for example, -82.4795. Using the abs() function, the absolute value of that number is taken, converting -82.4795 to 82.4795. Within the same script, the int() function is used to round that value to the nearest whole number, converting 82.4795 to simply 82. This value is assigned to the local variable "friendlyDate". Finally, the "friendlyDate" variable is called within the template, and the number of days since last login will display for each user.

CHP cuts emissions at Jaguar Halewood
BP Energy has gained consent from Energy Minister Peter Hain to build a 70MW gas-fired combined heat and power station at the Jaguar's Halewood site. The proposed stations will supply the heat and electricity needs of the Halewood works where Jaguar will build a range of models including its new X-type.
In a written answer to a Parliamentary Question from Maria Eagle (Liverpool, Garston), Hain said: 'Combined heat and power plants are designed to produce both electricity and usable heat. They have environmental benefits due to their high levels of energy efficiency.
'The decision shows the commitment of Ford to Merseyside as the power station will supply the current and future needs of the Jaguar works which will shortly be producing a new range.
The Energy Minister has also given the green light to Great Yarmouth Power to extend the South Denes combined cycle gas turbine power station by an increase in capacity from 350 to 400 MW.
In another written answer Hain commented: 'It is important that developers considering new proposals explore the opportunities to use combined heat and power.'
Combined heat and power stations release 50% less emission of such gases to the atmosphere than conventional fossil fuelled stations.

Concept:-
IRC Recommendations for grade compensation:
IRC gave the following guidelines for grade compensations:-
 1. Grade compensation is not required for grades flatter than 4% because the loss of tractive force is negligible.
 2. Grade compensation is \(\frac{{30 + {\rm{R}}}}{{\rm{R}}}{\rm{\% }}\), where R – radius of horizontal curve in m.
 3. The maximum grade compensation is limited to \(\frac{{75}}{{\rm{R}}}{\rm{\% }}\)
Calculation:
Given:
The gradient of the Curve \(= \frac{1}{{25}} \times 100 = 4{\rm{\% }}\)
\(\Rightarrow {\rm{GC}} = \frac{{30 + 100}}{{100}} \le \frac{{75}}{{100}}\)
⇒ GC = 0.75%
\(∴ {\rm{Compensated\;Gradient}} = \left( {\frac{1}{{25}} \times 100} \right) - 0.75 = {\rm{\;}}4 - 0.75 = 3.25{\rm{\% }}\)
But, Compensated Gradient (C.G) should be ≥ 4 %
Since the gradient of the curve is 4 %, no grade compensation is required.
∴ C.G = 4%

Diagonalization matrix and its application in distribution theory
MetadataShow full item record
Some matrix representations of diverse diagonal arrays are studied in this work; the results allow new definitions of classes of elliptical distributions indexed by kernels mixing Hadamard and usual products. A number of applications are derived in the setting of prior densities from the Bayesian multivariate regression model and families of non-elliptical distributions, such as the matrix multivariate generalized Birnbaum–Saunders density. The philosophy of the research about matrix representations of quadratic and inverse quadratic forms can be extended as a methodology for exploring possible new applications in non-standard distributions, matrix transformations and inference.

a warm mist, cool mist, or evaporative humidifier for parrots?
There are three types of humidifiers:
 - Warm Mist
 - Ultrasonic/Cool Mist
 - Evaporative
There are pros and cons to each humidifier type.
For example, in cases where your living space is already properly heated and you aren't bothered by cleaning the unit, a cool mist humidifier will do.
In other cases where you want to distribute some heat along with moisture, a warm mist humidifier will be better.
For our lovely pet birds, a warm mist humidifier is likely to be more helpful!
Warm mist humidifiers excel at dispersing heat, which can help parrots sensitive to bacteria, because they produce a sterile mist.
best humidifier for parrots
Cool mist humidifiers also tend to be noisier than warm mist humidifiers or evaporators because they use a fan to disperse the moisture.
TTLIFE's Warm And Cool mist Humidifier delivers sterilized air!
Some parrot owners prefer warm over cold mist humidifiers, because cool mist units run a higher risk of aspergillosis developing (a fungal disease caused by the spores of the common mold).
As cool mist humidifiers lack a way to sterilize the water, there will eventually be a mold overgrowth inside the water tank if not properly maintained.
Therefore, look for a warm mist humidifier for your parrot first, then a cool mist one, and only then for an evaporative humidifier.
c) Importance of cleaning
A higher humidity makes the spores and other microorganisms stick to any nearby surface, neutralizing them.
However, without cleaning, mold can start growing and be dispersed through the air.
All bacteria and fungi thrive in moist conditions. As soon as you run your humidifier for parrots, you should plan on how to get it cleaned.

BeCalmingHaven / Amazon
This can lead to aspergillosis or some other infections for parrots causing them to be lethargic, lose their appetite, and have trouble breathing.
Hence, be sure to regularly clean your humidifier.
It also helps if you're already using an AC unit that filters air, and if you can use filtered water too, you'll minimize the amount of cleaning needed!
d) Where to position the unit
Humidifiers for parrots should be positioned in such a way to counteract the effects of dry air, which is most commonly caused by the heating unit.
For example, if you use a furnace for heating, consider getting a whole-house humidifier that attaches to the furnace.:"They're actually not that much more expensive than a nice free-standing unit, and it definitely does a much better job of maintaining a constant and even level of humidity."
Always keeps in mind, when installing your humidifier, to keep an eye out for your feathered friend's behavior and adjust to it.
We've seen parrots attacking humidifiers; which ranged from temperature issues to the parrot being bored and just wanting attention.
e) Using essential oils/ chemicals/fragrances
Essential oils/chemicals/fragrances in the humidifier can irritate the parrot's sensitive airways but can also help it feel right at home.
In the wild, parrots are exposed to essential oils, chemicals and fragrances all the time.
Drug store brands are typically harmful for parrots but vets use medical-grade ones for parrots to good effect.
Hence, the best way to use essential oils with parrots is through an ultrasonic humidifier.
best humidifier for parrots
What harms our birds are actually the toxins found in low-quality products we commonly use.
Start with a few drops and gradually increase the amount if the parrot doesn't react negatively.
Bottom Line - What is the Best Humidifier for Parrots?
We adopt parrots and consider them family members. They bring us immense joy and companionship unlike anything else!
Based on what we've learned so far about parrots and humidity, they can have trouble in an environment that feels perfectly fine to humans, and have no way of expressing it.
Best Humidifier for Parrots
Thankfully, they are helped greatly by warm mist humidifiers.
The main difficulty in finding a solid warm mist humidifier is that they often don't have enough capacity and lack features, meaning you have to constantly oversee them.
Well, the TTLIFE Ultrasonic Humidifier is one that does the job best for your parrot.
Don't ignore the early warning signs of low humidity but also don't overreact.
Even if you decide that TTLIFE Ultrasonic isn't the best humidifier for your parrot, now you know the fundamentals of what helps and what harms parrots regarding humidity.
Find a simple, affordable and convenient solution that can help your feathered buddy in a pinch! Trust me, you'll both be happier in no time.

What is a wet snow?
Hi, everyone! I noticed there is a precipitation type called wet snow, as shown in the figure below. This is a new term for me. I'd like to ask what is a wet snow? What's the difference between normal snow and wet snow? How to predict wet snow in Windy?
Gkikas LGPZ Moderator last edited by
I copy from _URL_
"Wet snow is great for making snow balls and it is a sticky snow.
Dry snow is powdery, easily blown around by the wind and is not sticky."
I noticed there is no such wet snow in GFS model, so this is only contained in the ECMWF data?
As I searched the posts, I found your proposal which ask the windy developers do improve ECMWF meteogram by involving PTYPE Precipitation type (ID: 260015 GRIB2) and SF Snow fall (ID:144).
The description is here:
Describes the type of precipitation at the surface at the validity time. A precipitation type is assigned wherever there is a non-zero value of precipitation in the model output field (however small). The precipitation type should be used together with the precipitation rate to provide for example indication of potential freezing rain events. Precipitation type (0-8) uses WMO Code Table 4.201
Values of ptype defined in the IFS:
0 = No precipitation
1 = Rain
3 = Freezing rain (i.e. supercooled)
5 = Snow
6 = Wet snow (i.e. starting to melt)
7 = Mixture of rain and snow
8 = Ice pellets

Abstract: Timing errors are a growing concern for system resilience as technology continues to scale. It is problematic to use low-fidelity errors such as single-bit flips to model realistic timing errors. We address the lack of holistic methodology and tools for evaluating resilience of applications against timing errors. The proposed technique is able to rapidly inject high-fidelity and configurable timing errors to applications at the instruction level. Our implementation has no runtime dependencies on proprietary tools, enabling full parallelism of error injection campaign. Furthermore, because an injection point may not generate an actual error for a particular application run, we propose an acceleration technique to maximize the likelihood of generating errors that contribute to the overall campaign with speedup up to 7x. With our tool, we show that realistic timing errors lead to distinct error profiles from those of radiation-induced errors at both the instruction level and the application level.

Add Attribute Rule (Data Management)
Summary
Adds an attribute rule to a dataset.
Attribute rules are user-defined rules that can be added to a dataset to enhance the editing experience and help enforce data integrity. These rules can be used to populate attribute values or constrain permissible feature configurations and are enforced during feature editing. If a rule is violated when editing a feature, an error message will be returned.
Learn more about attribute rules
Learn about the Arcade scripting language
Usage
 - Batch calculation and validation rules are evaluated using the validation server for datasets that are branch versioned. To add these rule types, the database connection must be set to Branch for the Versioning Type.
 - The dataset must have a GlobalID field.
 - Adding an attribute rule requires an exclusive lock on the dataset. You must close any active connections to the dataset, which may include stopping any services.
 - The expression used to define an attribute rule is limited to the functionality available using the Arcade language.
 - You can reference a database sequence created by the Create Database Sequence tool in the Script Expression parameter using the NextSequenceValue Arcade data function.
 - To transfer existing attribute rules to another dataset, you can use the Export Attribute Rules and Import Attribute Rules tools instead of running this tool multiple times.
 - Note:
 Once you add attribute rules to a dataset, the minimum client version for the dataset is ArcGIS Pro 2.1. This means that the dataset will no longer be available for use in ArcMap.
Syntax
AddAttributeRule(in_table, name, type, script_expression, {is_editable}, {triggering_events}, {error_number}, {error_message}, {description}, {subtype}, {field}, {exclude_from_client_evaluation}, {batch}, {severity}, {tags})
ParameterExplanationData Type
in_table
The table or feature class that will have the new rule applied.
Table View
name
A unique name for the new rule.
String
type
Specifies the type of attribute rule to add.
 - CALCULATIONAutomatically populate attribute values for features when another attribute is set on a feature. These rules are applied based on the triggering events specified. Long running calculations can be set to run in batch mode and will be evaluated at a user defined time.When adding multiple calculation rules, the order in which the rules are added is important if there are circular dependencies. For example, Rule A calculates Field1 is equal to the value of $feature.Field2 + $feature.Field3, and Rule B calculates Field4 is equal to $feature.Field1 + $feature.Field5; the results of the calculation may be very different depending on the order the rules are added.
 - CONSTRAINTSpecify permissible attribute configurations on a feature. When the constraint rule is violated, an error is generated and the feature is not stored. For example, if the value of Field A must be less than the sum of Field B and Field C, an error will be generated when that constraint is violated.
 - VALIDATIONCheck for existing features with a batch validation process. Rules are evaluated at a user defined time. When a rule is violated, an error feature is created. The type of rule can only be used for data that has been set up for branch versioning.
String
script_expression
An Arcade expression that defines the rule.
Calculator Expression
is_editable
(Optional)
Specifies whether the attribute value can be edited. Attribute rules can be configured to either block or allow editors to edit the attribute values of the field being calculated. This parameter is only applicable for the calculation attribute rule type.
 - EDITABLEEditors will be able to edit the attribute value. This is the default.
 - NONEDITABLEEditors will not be able to edit the attribute value.
Boolean
triggering_events
[triggering_events,...]
(Optional)
Specifies the editing events that will trigger the attribute rule to take effect. This parameter is valid for calculation and constraint rule types only. At least one triggering event must be provided for calculation rules in which the Batch parameter is unchecked (batch=NOT_BATCH in Python). Triggering events are not applicable for calculation rules that have the Batch parameter checked (batch=BATCH in Python).
 - INSERTThe rule will be applied when a new feature is added.
 - UPDATEThe rule will be applied when a feature has been updated.
 - DELETEThe rule will be applied when a feature has been deleted.
String
error_number
(Optional)
An error number that will be returned when this rule is violated. This value is not required to be unique, so you may have the same custom error number returned for multiple rules.
This parameter is required for the constraint and validation rules; it is optional for calculation rules.
String
error_message
(Optional)
An error message that will be returned when this rule is violated. It is recommended that you use a descriptive message to help the editor understand the violation when it occurs. The message is limited to 2000 characters.
This parameter is required for the constraint and validation rules; it is optional for calculation rules.
String
description
(Optional)
The description of the new attribute rule. The description is limited to 256 characters.
String
subtype
(Optional)
The subtype to which the rule will be applied if the dataset has subtypes.
String
field
(Optional)
The name of an existing field to which the rule will be applied. This parameter is required for the calculation attribute rule type; it is not applicable for the constraint rule type.
String
exclude_from_client_evaluation
(Optional)
Specifies whether the rule will be evaluated before edits are applied. Because not all clients may have the capability to run all of the available rules, you can choose to flag a rule for simple clients only. For example, some rules may refer to data that has not been made available to all clients (reasons can include the data is offline, size, or security), or some rules may depend on the user or context (that is, a lightweight field update in ArcGIS Collector may not execute some rule that requires additional user input or knowledge; however, a client such as ArcGIS Pro may support it). This parameter is not applicable for validation rules or calculation rules if the batch parameter is BATCH.
 - EXCLUDEThe rule will be excluded from client evaluation.
 - INCLUDEThe rule will be executed for all clients. This is the default.
Boolean
batch
(Optional)
Specifies whether the rule will be executed in batch mode.
 - BATCHThe rule evaluation will be executed at a later time by executing validate.
 - NOT_BATCHTriggering events will be used to determine when the rule is evaluated for insert, update, or delete operations. This is the default.
Calculation rules can be either BATCH or NOT_BATCH. Validation rules are always BATCH for this property, and constraint rules are always NOT_BATCH.
Batch rules are only supported for data with branch versioning enabled.
Boolean
severity
(Optional)
The severity of the error.
A value within the range of 1 through 5 can be chosen to define the severity of the rule. A value of 1 is high, being the most severe, and value of 5 is low, being the least severe. For example, you could provide a low severity for a specific attribute rule and ignore the error during data production workflows, or set a high severity in which the error would need to be fixed for accuracy of data collected.
This property is only applicable to validation rules.
Long
tags
[tags,...]
(Optional)
A set of tags to identify the rule (searchable and indexable) as a way to map to a functional requirement in a data model. To enter multiple tags, use a semicolon delimiter, for example, Tag1;Tag2;Tag3.
String
Derived Output
NameExplanationData Type
out_table
The updated input table with an attribute rule added.
