The plugin worked well for awhile, but with the advent of Turbolinks, the solution felt less and less appropriate. I’ve since settled on some techniques to not only handle page-specific Javascript, but overall organization and structure of Javascript within a Rails application. I’ve used it in a hand full of large applications over the past few months and it’s held up incredibly well.
Using “sprinkles” of Javascript throughout a Rails application can get unwieldly fast if we’re not consistent. What we ideally want is some techniques and guidelines that can keep the Javascript organized in our projects. We also don’t want to have to disable Turbolinks to make our application work as we expect.
Generally, javascript behavior can be boiled down to the following categories:
Behavior that’s “always on”
Behavior that’s triggered from a user action
But first, a few things to will help us stay organized…
I still like to scope the body element of the layout(s) with the controller and action name:
This not only let’s us control access to the DOM through jQuery if we need to, but also provides some top-level styling classes to allow us to easily add page-specific CSS.
In the case we’re working on the proverbial blog posts application, the body tag ends up looking like:
<body class="posts index">
This gives us the opportunity to scope CSS and Javascripts to all posts-related pages in the controller with the .posts class, or down to the specific page using a combination of both the controller and action: .posts.index.
Default Application Manifest
Here’s the default app/assets/javascripts/application.js:
I start by removing the line //= require_tree .. I do this because if you don’t, the javascript files in the folder will be loaded in alphabetical order. As you’ll see below, there’s an initialization file that needs to be loaded before other Javascript. We’ll also remove the comments from the top of the file to preserve space.
Let’s start by adding the file app/assets/javascripts/init.coffee with the following:
window.App ||= {}
$("a, span, i, div").tooltip
Let’s dig in to each pagef of this:
We’re creating the App object on window so the functionality added to the object is available throughout the application.
Next, we define an init() function on App to initialize common jQuery plugins and other Javascript libraries:
The call to $("a, span, i, div").tooltip() initializes Bootstrap Tooltips. This is an example of the type of libraries that can/should be setup here. Obviously, if you’re not using Bootstrap tooltips, you would haven’t this here, but coupled with the next line, we’ll see why this works.
As many have found out the hard way, when Turbolinks is enabled in a project, jQuery $(document).ready functions don’t get fired from page to page. In order to call the init() function on each page transition, we’ll hook in to the turbolinks:load event:
Note: the turbolinks:load transition is also triggered on the well known document ready event, so there’s no need to add any special handling for first page load.
Lastly, we need to add init.coffee to the asset pipeline:
“Always On” Javascript Functionality
Now with the defaults out of the way, let’s take a look at adding some behavior.
Let’s assume one of our pages will show a Javascript graph of data. We’ll start by adding a file with a name related to that responsibility.
# app/assets/javascripts/app.chart.coffee
class App.Chart
constructor: (@el) ->
# intialize some stuff
chart = new App.Chart $
A few things to note here…
You might notice the file takes the form:
While this may seem obvious, it’s an important point to keep in mind. I’ve found it offers a predictable structure that allows me to open any coffeescript file that we’ve written in the project and generally know where to look for what.
Turbolinks-Proof
We called this “Always On” functionality because, as you probably noticed, using the following event listener $(document).on "turbolinks:load", ->, we know with Turbolinks, this gets triggered on every page transition.
Add to Manifest
Because we removed the //= require_tree . line in the default application.js manifest file, we’ll have to add our chart file to be included in the asset pipeline (last line):
//= require app.chart
Page-Specific Javascript
Uh oh, so maybe we don’t want the graph to show up on every page! In this case, we’re looking for “Always On” functionality for specific pages ONLY.
We can limit the page pages certain functionality is loaded on by using the classes we added to the body of the layout. In this case, a small conditional to the invocation can prevent this being triggered on pages it shouldn’t be.
return unless $(".posts.index").length > 0
f = new App.Chart $
f.render
We added return unless $(".posts.index").length > 0 to make sure App.Chart never gets instantiated if we’re on the .posts.index page. While this may seem verbose, I’ve found that it’s not very common to need page-specific functionality. There are probably plenty of libraries that do something similar, like the one I previously suggested. However, to me, limiting javascript to a single page and very explicit when I read the code, it’s almost never worth dragging in a separate plugin for this. YMMV.
User-Triggered Javascript
“data-behavior” Attribute
Let’s assume there’s a link in the user’s account that allows them to update their credit card. In this case, we have the following:
<%= link_to "Update Credit Card", "#", data: { behavior: "update-credit-card" } %>
You’ll probably notice the data-behavior tag being added to the link. This is the key we’ll use to attach the Javascript behavior.
We could have added a unique class to the link:
<%= link_to "Update Credit Card", "#", class: "update-credit-card" %>
or, perhaps, even assign an ID:
<%= link_to "Update Credit Card", "#", id: "update-credit-card" %>
Both of these techniques don’t really indicate whether we added the update-card-card for the use of CSS styling, or to attach Javascript behavior. So in my applications, I leave classes for styling ONLY.
So now to the Javascript:
App.Billing =
$(document).on "click", "[data-behavior~=update-credit-card]", =>
App.Billing.update
We can use the selector [data-behavior~=update-credit-card] to latch on to the data-behavior tag we defined in the view. We use the on jQuery method to ensure that we’re listening to this event whether the element’s on the page or not. This is what allows us to load this Javascript when on other pages and have it still work when a user clicks through to the page with the actual link on it.
We could latch on to the change event, or whatever is appropriate to the element we’re adding behavior.
Again, because Javascripts assets we add to app/assets/javascripts won’t automatically be inserted in to the asset pipeline, we’ll add //= require app.billing to the manifest file:
//= require app.billing
Using the techniques above, we can keep the Javascript in our Rails applications organized and predictable. We can rest easy knowing the files will all generally look the same. There’s not been any uses cases where this structure hasn’t worked for me personally.
One thing that makes me feel good about this approach is there’s no real magic or extra plugins. It’s using all the tools we already have in a basic Rails application, which is one less thing to maintain and keep up to date. Less depedencies == less pain down the road.


of testing before?
What Wikipedia have though, through their very existence and reason for being is the ability to run one of the biggest and best tests ever done. They have 400 million monthly readers, people are already on their site to see these banner ads so they can get instant feedback and monitoring – did people click it, did they donate, how much - this is not something that most charities have the luxury of.

Back to VW, I didn't get the same kind of response when I asked some American friends of mine. They point to the Beetle, and use words like 'alternative, fun'.

Now, though, they might have nailed it. Maybe the fun theory was just setting the grounds for this. The fast lane, (driven by fun)

After the long cold winter, any day of warm sunshine has quickly brought out the sprinklers, slip-n-slides, water balloons, and kiddie pools. Willamette Valley weather is all about the seasons, and just about everyone is ready for the summer season, even if it isn’t here yet. Nothing is quite as shocking as running through a sprinkler or jumping into water that feels like recent glacier-melt. Shocking screams of delight of all-too-eager children tells us that summer is just around the corner.
As the school year comes to its end, it can also be a shocking transition into summer. The days are longer and new schedules await. Even though the school commitment has ended, the summer season can be just as busy and certainly less routine. Deuteronomy 11:19 provides wise instructions regarding how families should spend their time.  While part of this lifestyle is fulfilled daily through discipleship training at Crosshill, the most vital instruction occurs in the home. Just as daily Bible classes and weekly chapels are coming to an end, structured family devotions can easily vanish in the summer as new schedules begin.
Structured learning such as schooling and devotions have tremendous value, but of greater value is a lifestyle of learning. While the chaos of summer will be unpredictable at times, many families will have a few predictable changes. There will be more hours traveling together as a family. There will be more hours staying up late enjoying the nicer weather. There will be more adventures outside and less living room entertainment. All of these “spontaneous” activities will provide life-on-life modeling and mentoring as time is spent with our children.
Just as an unprepared Bible teacher or an unprepared Pastor would not be surprised if their teaching was ineffective, unprepared parents should be equally aware. Am I only prepared to talk with my children this summer about my interests? Or am I prepared to engage my children with their interests, getting down on my hands and knees (so to speak), investing my life into theirs? And am I spending quality time alone with God so that I can engage my children and their interests daily through a Christian worldview?
I am grateful for those at Crosshill who daily disciple my children. But as the school year comes to an end, and I consider this upcoming season, I realize that without intentionality in my parenting, my children may return in the fall fairly unchanged. If I’m not prepared, my parenting may be as shocking as getting sprayed unexpectedly by a cold garden hose, or randomly attacked by a wild water balloon. Just as the swimming pools will warm up and our bodies will acclimate, may we as parents warm up and acclimate our priorities to maximize all the opportunities this summer provides.


Grammatical gender systems are prevalent across many languages, and when comparing French and English the existence of this system becomes a strong distinction. There have been studies that attribute assigned grammatical gender with the ability to influence conceptualization (attributing gender attributes) of all nouns, thus affecting people's thoughts on a grand scale. We hypothesized that due to the influence of a grammatical gender system, French political discourse would have a large difference between the number of masculine and feminine nouns used. Specifically, we predicted there would be a larger ratio of feminine to masculine nouns in French political discourse than in non-political discourse when compared to English discourse. Through linguistic analysis of gendered nouns in French political writing, wfeminine versus masculine nouns, signaling a preference for a more “effeminate” language.


Chinese tech firm Xiaomi, known mainly for making smartphones, is getting into the "smart" electric-vehicle (EV) business.
Xiaomi said it will initially invest RMB10 billion (US$1.5 billion) in a wholly-owned EV subsidiary. Over the next ten years, the company pledged to plow a total of U$10 billion into the business.
Lei Jun, Xiaomi CEO – and CEO of the newly-formed EV division – said iompany, and that he was willing to "put all my personal reputation on the line" to make the "Xiaomi electric vehicle" a success.
The CEO was at pains to stress that the EV commitment was not impulsive but taken "after numerous rounds of debates" among the executive team.
Lei Jun made the case that Xiaomi was well placed to get into the smart EV business, bringing to the table its "deep understanding" of the "hardware-based Internet service business model," along with know-how in software, AI and the Internet of Things.
Although Xiaomi makes most of its money from smartphones, it also hass.
While the skillset of the traditional automaker will need to expand into different areas that more readily overlap with tech firms' expertise, Lei Jun acknowledged that Xiaomi's own EV journey was likely to be a bumpy one.
Lei Jun ruefully pointed out that other key players have "," and that it has its work cut out to be an industry success.
Great Wall on board?
Although Great Wall has denied any talks with Xiaomi, one source cited by the news agency speculated that an EV partnership week.
If all goes to plan, according to the Reuters report, Xiaomi will launch its first EV around 2023, although that seems overly optimistic for a company in self-confessed EV catch-up mode.
Xiaomi is the latest in a series of tech firms reportedly looking to branch out into manufacturing its own branded EVs. .

My firstwas attending the conference in Brighton in 2013. I'd been invited to give a plenary address about brain development in adolescence which was very exciting for me; the event itself was unlike all other conferences I had been to, with the involvement of young people and charities front and centre. There was a great range of presentations and speakers, and I  in Dublin, which is only a matter of weeks away.
Although I was already involved in youth mental health research back in 2013, that conference certainly galvanised my efforts. There is massive unmet need in youth mental health, poor understanding of the causes, and real problem with stigma and discrimination. The IAYMH conference is a way to continue to address these issues – it brings together research experts with young people affected by mental ill health, and links clinicians to charities looking to support early intervention. I'm looking forward to making new connections, renewing old ones, and learning heaps.


Some quick background beforehand, however: Fort Henry, a military fort in Kingston, Ontario, was actually constructed in 1832, right around the time of our story, in an effort to protect the waterway supply route in case of American invasion. (It would also go on to be used as an internment camp for political prisoners during World War I.)
I’m again reminded of a Monty Python quote from The Meaning Of Life:

“I do find it interesting that, like many social institutions, public schooling began as a for-government-employees-only initiative that later expanded to include the full public.”
Agreed. What I find more interesting is that it was offered to rank and file soldiers in 1867 when the common soldier was usually cannon fodder or a general dogsbody, whereas officers were still from the more educated upper classes and there was not yet much upward mobility from the trenches to the war room. An educated army is much mnore modern necessity, but in 1867 an education was not a trait you wanted in your ranks of soldiers. The British class system was and is far more structured than ours, yet this seems advanced for the era.
JRD Skinner November 4, 2010 at 10:42 #
Hmm – that’s a very good point. I’d be interested to poke around a little and find out what brought about the inclusion of education as a benefit for the common soldier – I wonder if it was considered a perk to increase enlistment. (Much as college/university is used as a carrot today.)


Following the derailment of a train carrying chemicals in Wetteren on 4 May 2013, a massive amount of information and data were collected to protect the population by reducing potential exposure risks. The setting of priorities at the decision and action-levels is essential in such an environmental crisis situation. Good collaboration and fast communication are key elements. In this context, the project aims to explore the added values of an integrated approach to environmental health tools as part of health impact assessments.
Studying potential associations between the measured airborne values of the pollutant under investigation and the public health data from questionnaires and human biomonitoring.
a study describing the links between exposure and health effects.
This study will lead to the development of a working methodology incorporating different tools to assist in the decision-making process in assessments of health impacts and during crisis situations.
The project results will be disseminated mainly through scientific articles and communications at one or more conferences.


It was organized around a central timeline, which Maury himself "marched along to" as he communicated with the Board. Board engagement was crucial in this whole arc as well.

Sometimes it's important to recede into the background and let others step up and lead planning, set agendas, etc. Be a steward instead of driving everything else. Be inclusive of your team and other executives, as opposed to getting heads-down in the day-to-day work. Approaching work as a steward is going to help you, your team, and your organization much more in the long run. Maury says it best: "I like the word stewardship more than ownership."
Increase simplicity: So many companies layer everything in process, and that can get too complex. What do you do?How does that impact the overall company?

AI (Artificial Intelligence) is at the heart of robotics: for a robot to be autonomous, it needs AI to make decisions when faced with a situation not foreseen by the programmer. The AI analyzes the information provided by the robot’s various sensors to analyze the situation and act according to what is happening. It is the AI that allows an autonomous vehicle or an AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) to choose its path, to accelerate or slow down, or even to brake according to the situation. It is also the AI that allows a robot to converse with a person in a natural language facilitating the interaction. AI is everywhere in robotics and our members are all concerned by AI, either as users of AI algorithms or as producers of these algorithms.

Yet instead of first realizing we belong to God, we seek others to satisfy all our inner desires. We desire immediate gratification to have our emotional cup filled by various social means. Instead of first accepting our identity in Christ, we search for who we are through other social organizations. Whether the workplace, gym, school, bar, church, or non-profit mission, we may know God is out there someplace, but admittedly He is not the central core of our relationship. What this means is we are simply missing out in life’s greatest dance.


Over the past five years Dundee City has been one of the council areas with the highest suicide rate in the whole of Scotland. The game takes place on a walk over the Tay Road Bridge, which is an infamous local landmark for those seeking to take their life.
The Longest Walk is a deeply personal biographical documentary walking simulator game about my father's experience of living with depression and suicidal thoughts. The game was created using audio recorded from a 54-minute-long interview that I conducted with my dad, which was then edited into this approximately 9-and-a-half minute long playable experience.
The aim for this game is to help reduce feelings of isolation and encourage those who are struggling with depression or experiencing suicidal thoughts to reach out for help. Through my father's sharing of his personal experience in an open and frank manner, this documentary game aims to raise awareness of and provide an insight into what it is like living with depression in order to provoke discussion and help tackle the stigma about opening-up about mental health issues.
Whilst my father's experience and the locations depicted in the game are specific to him, the thoughts, feelings, and message conveyed through his recollection of lived experience are universal.
This free documentary game is part of a series of biographical game prototypes that I am developing for my PhD at Abertay University - Funded by The Northwood Charitable Trust - and was inspired by games such as Dear Esther (The Chinese Room), Actual Sunlight (WZOGI), and That Dragon, Cancer (Numinous Games). This game is published under the Abertay Game Lab practice-based research group.

Now its 'new' commercial space because NASA and the US Military have contracted with commercial companies to launch satellites into orbit since the beginning of the space race. Those were cost plus contacts. Boeing, Lockheed, and McDonnell Douglas were among these companies, and they made up the establishment. In 1996 the X Prize put set up a competition for the first company to send 3 humans to suborbital heights twice in two weeks with the same craft. I have to say that back then the X-Prize foundation set up shop at the St Louis Science Center. Such a feat was not done by anyone including NASA and Roscosmos. That may sound strange, but orbital flight and flights to the moon were more important than suborbital flight in the 1960's space race. We're talking manned missions here. This would be a coup for reusable spacecraft. In 2004 Scaled Composites won. Its SpaceShipOne did 3 space flights that year. Mike Melvill was one of the pilots and was the first commercial astronaut pilot. The first was a test flight while the other two were for the prize. Instead of sending up 3 people, they had the pilot and the equivalent weight of two other bodies. SpaceShipOne and its mother ship WhiteKnight became the first totally reusable launch system since the X-15 and its B52 mother ship. After the win, Richard Branson contracted with Scaled Composites to make SpaceShipTwo and WhiteKnightTwo thus forming Virgin Galactic.
Masten Space Systems competed with Armadillo Aerospace in the Lunar Lander Challenge. They managed to win the level 2 prize. Now they are pursuing reusable suborbital launch rockets demonstrating VTVL technology. NASA has long used sounding rockets for research since the V-2 rocket. Those were single use rockets. NASA has been experimenting with these reusable rockets from both Armadillo and Masten in the last couple of years to present. The benefits of such vehicles are obvious. They supply multiple missions. I think of Masten and Armadillo as a type of rocket company that is contracted by other rocket and/or space companies rather than catering to the public. These guys seem small, but they are not to be underestimated. Once they mature the technology, space will never be the same.y design of their Dragon capsule and a family of rockets known as Falcon. They were going after the cost plus launch companies and a cheaper way to launch to orbit. At this time they received no government moneys. It wasn't until the X-Prize was won that NASA seriously looked at the new companies. XCOR came up with a space plane called Xerus around 2002. Now, they are touting a smaller suborbital space plane called Lynx. If and when the Lynx flies, it will be the first fully reusable commercial suborbital space plane in a single stage. Now XCOR has plans to use the old Space Shuttle landing strip in Cape Canaveral for the Lynx.
What's next for space competition? There a current competition, the Google Lunar X-Prize. This started in 2007. Watch these competitors. The idea is to put a rover or probe on the surface of the moon. Yes, commercial space is looking at the moon even if NASA is not. If all goes according to pattern, one or two teams will spearhead through and land taking the prize. Then contracts will emerge from NASA and other space companies.
When NASA got interested in this New Commercial Space, they started with a program that was designed to check out then new companies capabilities. This program was called Commercial Orbiting Transportation Services (COTS). It started in 2006 with SpaceX and Rocketplane Kistler. SpaceX proved their worthiness but Rocketplane Kistler was another story. It failed and put a black mark on commercial space. In its place, NASA elected Orbital Sciences. This company started in 1982 with the advent of the Pegasus air launched rocket. It seemed to be a bold attempt at making access to space cheaper at the time. Orbital still operates and sells launches with Pegasus and with other more traditional rockets. Orbital has had some setbacks. Now its fixing to launch its new Cygnus spacecraft and Antares rocket to satisfy COTS. Now NASA has SpaceX and Orbital. They also are hosting a competition for development of hardware for commercial companies to transport Astronauts to orbit in their Commercial Crew Development (CCDev) program. COTS, CRS, and CCDev are the programs that give money to the competing companies so far.
Well, that's the start of the New Commercial Space. It started with just dreams and private money and now NASA is helping out here and there. New companies are still being made and the market is likely to grow. Deep Space Industries wants to mine asteroids; Golden Spike wants to sell you a ticket to the moon; and Stratolaunch wants to air launch medium sized rockets. These were formed in 2011 and 2012. This is history in the making. This is rocket science and rocket business. I don't know which is more daunting.


Psalm 90 is written by Moses and is actually the oldest of the Psalms. The Psalm gives contrast to God’s eternal and all-powerful nature with man’s frailty. While our time on earth is limited, God is everlasting. He was here before us and will be here past our time. We need to think about our time here on earth and how we can impact it beyond our existence. Below is an illustration by Francis Chan that really impacted me me when I saw it.

Home » HPC Hardware » Coprocessors » Prefetching Data for Intel Xeon Phi
February 25, 2016 by MichaelS
Prefetching of data is known to improve performance for many applications. Through a combination of hardware and software, most modern systems include some level of prefetching of the data. By issuing data access before the data is actually required leads to reduced latency of memory access.
Prefetching on a coprocessor such as the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor can be more important than on a main CPU such as the Intel Xeon CPUs. Since the cores on the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor are in-order, they cannot hide memory latency as compared to an out-of-order CPU. In addition, since a coprocessor does not have an L3 cache, L2 misses must then access the slower memory subsystem.
There are two types of prefetch instructions on the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor:
VPREFETCH1 – prefetches data from memory to L2
VPREFETCH0 – prefetches data from L2 to L1
Ideally, data should be prefetched from memory to L2 and from L2 to L1 before being used by the core. Thus, when the core needs the data, it is in the closest cache to the processor.
There’s more to come about prefetching in a future article, so stay tuned.ache, cache misses, Intel, Intel TEC, intel xeon, Intel Xeon Phi, memory, STREAM, vtune

The product of three volcanic events, the lava-strewn landscape of the El Malpais National Monument (505/783-4774, free) is not exactly the barren terrain el malpaís (el-mal-pie-EES, literally, the badlands) suggests. A surprising amount of greenery has taken root in the millennia since the last eruption, between 2,000 and 3,000 years ago, and in the spring, wildflowers stand out against the jagged black rock. The lava fields are riven with deep, cave-like tubes that formed as the hot rock cooled. Some of the most scenic areas are along the monument’s eastern border, where the lava meets red sandstone cliffs, as well as New Mexico’s largest natural arch.
For those who just want a quick look, the easiest access point is Sandstone Bluffs Overlook, where, on a short walk along the edge of the eastern cliffs, you can admire the lava fields, and see north to Mount Taylor. It’s about 11 miles south from I-40 on Highway 117. Drive another 7 miles to reach La Ventana Arch, a great sandstone arc; a short trail leads to a scenic viewing spot.
If you’d like a longer hike or drive into the park, stop first at the Northwest New Mexico Visitors Center (1900 E. Santa Fe Ave., 505/876-2783, 9am-6pm daily in summer, 8am-5pm daily in winter), near I-40 at exit 85, midway between the two highways that access different parts of the badlands. National Park Service employees can give you detailed maps and current conditions, and from there you can decide whether to take Highway 53 or Highway 117 south into the monument area. The monument information center (505/783-4774, 8am-4:30pm daily) is less conveniently located on Highway 53, 23 miles south of I-40.
In addition to the hikes detailed below, there are more demanding but worthwhile places to explore outside the borders of the national park, in the BLM land designated Cebolla Wilderness (off the southeast border of the park) and West Malpais Wilderness (to the south and west)—ask at the visitors center for details on these areas as well.
By far the most strenuous hike, the shadeless 7.5-mile Zuni-Acoma Trail cuts across the lava beds roughly along the path used for centuries by the Puebloans in this region. It’s rough going because the ground is so uneven, but if you’re interested in the plants and animals that thrive in El Malpais, this can be a rewarding trek. The eastern trailhead is on Highway 117, before you reach La Ventana Arch; the western one is on Highway 53.
Lava Falls Area
For the best up-close look at the lava, head farther south on Highway 117 to the Lava Falls Area. Here you can still make out the swirls and eddies of the molten stuff as if it had cooled yesterday; the variety of shapes and textures is fascinating, as are the odd pockets of stunted trees that manage to flourish here. The three-mile route (a mile-long loop with a one-mile spur) is marked only by rock cairns, so bring a compass, as it’s easy to get disoriented.
At the El Calderon Area on Highway 53, a three-mile loop trail heads to El Calderon Cinder Cone, the area around the lava vent, and then back to the parking lot via a dirt road. Calderon Crater, the oldest of the three lava flows that make up the area, dates back some 115,000 years—as a result, the rock is more weathered, and not the stark black found around younger McCartys Crater. This is also the area where lava tubes are closest to the road—a short walk from the car reveals the entrance to Junction Cave, a tube that partially collapsed—you see a sliver of daylight on the other end. The famous Bat Cave, less than a mile from the parking area, still has a circling cloud of the nocturnal critters at sunset, though not as many as in the past.
The Big Tubes Area, a network of 17 miles of lava caves on the west side of the monument, has by far the weirdest terrain, but it was closed at the time of research, again due to the bat fungus. Even if it does reopen, you’ll need a high-clearance truck to get here, as well as headlamps (with extra batteries), sturdy boots, andjagged rocks.
Bandera Crater Ice Caves
A family-run tourist attraction that was grandfathered in when El Malpais was made a national monument, the Bandera Crater Ice Caves (Hwy. 53, 888/ICE-CAVE, 9am-5pm daily Mar.-Oct., 9am-4pm daily Nov.-Feb., $11) are an impressive natural sight, especially during the heat of summer, when you can descend from 90°F outside to 31°F underground, the chill emanating from a permanent layer of greenish ice at least 20 feet thick. Although the same phenomenon is visible elsewhere in El Malpais (for much less money), this is the most accessible spot, and generally more impressive. The other half of the attraction, Bandera Crater, 750 feet deep, is actually not much to look at—literally, just a big hole in the ground.

What is the ionosphere? (And who is Steve?)
Extreme ultraviolet radiation and X-rays from the sun bombard these upper regions of the atmosphere, striking the atoms and molecules held within those layers. That powerful radiation dislodges negatively charged electrons from the particles, altering those particles' electrical charge. The resulting cloud of free electrons and charged particles, called ions, led to the name "ionosphere." The ionized gas, or plasma, mixes with the denser, neutral atmosphere.

Earth's ionosphere, a region of charged particles, stretches up to the border between Earth and space. (Image credit: ICON/NASA)
When solar winds whip across Earth, the planet stays shielded behind its magnetic field, also known as the magnetosphere. Generated by churning molten iron in the Earth's core, the magnetosphere sends solar radiation racing toward either pole. There, the charged particles collide with chemicals swirling in the ionosphere, generating the spellbinding auroras.

Near the Arctic and Antarctic circles, auroras streak across the sky every night, according to National Geographic. The colorful curtains of light, known as the aurora borealis and aurora australis, respectively, hang about 620 miles (1,000 km) above the Earth's surface. The auroras glow green-yellow when ions strike oxygen particles in the lower ionosphere. Reddish light often blooms along the auroras' edges, and purples and blues also appear in the nighttime sky, though this happens rarely.
In 2016, citizen scientists spotted a particularly eye-catching phenomena which scientists struggled to explain, Space.com previously reported. Bright rivers of white and pinkish light flowed over Canada, which is farther south than most auroras appear. Occasionally, dashes of green joined the mix. The mysterious lights were named Steve in homage to the animated movie "Over the Hedge" and were later rebranded as the "Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement" — still STEVE for short.
According to a 2019 study in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, the green streaks within STEVE may develop similarly to how traditional auroras form, as charged particles rain down upon the atmosphere. In STEVE, however, the river of light seems to glow when particles within the ionosphere collide and generate heat among themselves.


showing the bruises and bumps, saying that they were incurred when a taxicab door had blown against her as she alighted in a brisk breeze, that her husband had to leave for Los Angeles on business. One report had stated that Mr. Waterfield had stalked Mr. Bto the floor, but Ms. Russell and Mr. Blue denied this version of events, Ms. Russell saying that the matter had been greatly exaggerated, that she and her husband had simply gotten up and left after the show, that she was hardened to such remarks.
You had better stay clear of those cab doors. They can be vicious in a strong breeze.
On the editorial page, "The Community Is in Good Shape…" regards the nearly complete countywide tax revaluation of real and personal property, showing large increases in valuation having been registered in every tax division, demonstrating the healthy and vigorous state of the community's economic life. It provides the figures.
Most importantly, the assessors had wiped out gross inequities in valuation which had penalized some property owners and benefited others, substituting an equalized system of values.
It promises a subsequent editorial to give taxpayers in the county a definite scale to guide them through the confusion of the revaluation period.
"…But There Are Big Hurdles Ahead" tells of Dr. N. L. Englehardt, nationally known educational consultant, having said as much to the City and County officials at a joint meeting during the week. The community was expected to continue its growth and could no longer afford to be conservative in planning for the future, especially as that growth would only accelerate. Dr. Englehardt had maintained his finger on the pulse of the community for many years in an effort to prescribe for the school planning problem, on which the community had spent eight million dollars since the end of World War II, much of which, however, having been consumed by inflation, such that a minimum of 15 million dollars more would be needed to meet the needs already evident, probably required before the end of the decade.
Along with the need for new schools would come streets, water lines, sewers, transportation, police and fire protection, health services, sanitation and many other municipal and county government services.
The heart of Dr. Engelhardt's message had been that the City and the County could no longer afford to go in separate directions, would require careful planning at all levels and cooperation between the City and County governing bodies, the school boards, planning boards, and other groups.
It hopes that the joint session of City and County officials marked the beginning of new cooperation to provide for the future of the community.
"Armed Service Extravagance" tells of a Congressional subcommittee studying military purchases having uncovered examples of waste and inefficiency, such that the military services had, regarding some items, a 240-year supply and about 10 billion dollars worth of "unserviceable and uncataloged" items. The Congress had been trying without success for 23 years to urge the military to adopt a single buying catalog.
Drew Pearson, the previous week, had provided some examples, such as the Marines paying $16.80 for the same combat boots which the Army bought for $24.65, the Navy having enough anchors to last 50 years, and the Army, Navy and Marines insisting on separate and rival coffee-roasting plants. It took 5 1/2 pages of specifications just to buy ping-pong balls.
It suggests that there had to be a better way to provide for the military, that while some extravagance might be excused on the grounds of urgency, the bulk of military purchases could be done efficiently if there were a will to do so. With military spending reaching 52 billion dollars per year, producing a huge deficit, Congress had a mandate to force a thorough revision of the Pentagon's purchasing policies.
"A Harvest of Death" provides a plethora of statistics regarding traffic accidents in North Carolina for December, 1951, versus December, 1950, showing an increase in total accidents during the year of 33 percent, from 28,251 to 37,605, and in traffic accidents by 29 percent. Deaths in traffic accidents had increased from 110 to 116 during the year, while total deaths increased by 8 percent. Persons injured in traffic accidents increased by 7 percent, while total injured persons increased by 22 percent.
Of the 6,875 drivers involved in the December, 1951 accidents, 244 had been driving while drunk, 1,062 had not possessed the right-of-way, 976 had been speeders, 637 had been traveling on the wrong side of the road, not in passing, 529 had been following too closely and 262 had failed to signal or given an improper signal. In all, 77 percent of the drivers involved in accidents had been guilty of at least one traffic violation.
It concludes that North Carolina motorists either did not know how to drive or were careless, that the only way to make them learn to drive carefully was to adopt stricter laws and enforce them more rigorously. The 1951 General Assembly had ignored the pleas of Governor Scott's special commission on highway safety to make the traffic laws more strict and, it posits, the results in death and injury were "the harvest of that disinterest".
Drew Pearson tells of the nomination of Harry McDonald, to become the new head of RFC, having been stalled in committee by Congressman Robert Crosser of Ohio, who had sought to bring pressure on the Securities & Exchange Commission, operating under Mr. McDonald, on behalf of financier Cyrus Eaton, who had been in trouble with the SEC, investigated for promoting a lawsuit against auto manufacturer Henry Kaiser as a trumped-up excuse to back out of a multi-million dollar contract. Mr. Crosser had telephoned the SEC commissioners repeatedly to influence them in favor of Mr. Eaton and when the SEC continued to rule against him, Mr. Crosser had hinted that the SEC's treatment of Mr. Eaton s, shortly after which a probe began by Mr. Crosser's Interstate Commerce Committee, of which he was chairman, though assigning the investigation to a subcommittee headed by Congressman Louis Heller of New York.
Mr. Heller had refused to provide to the Senate Banking Committee, considering the McDonald appointment, the House subcommittee's files on Mr. McDonald's record at SEC. Mr. Pearson indicates that the reason for the refusal was that the files contained nothing derogatory to Mr. McDonald. Meanwhile, Mr. Crosser asked Banking Committee chairman Senator Burnet Maybank to delay the hearings on Mr. McDonald until the Heller subcommittee finished its investigation, to which Senator Maybank acquiesced.
Dr. Walter Schreiber, wartime chief of medical science for the Wehrmacht, who had sanctioned some of the medical experiments which the Nazis performed on victims in the concentration camps, had escaped the Nuremberg war crimes trials and was presently working for the Air Force at Randolph Field in Texas. He had mysteriously disappeared until the deadline for indictment on war crimes had passed and when he emerged from hiding, was given the Air Force job. He was presently working on a secret project at the Air Force School of Aviation Medicine. Had he been tried, he would have been charged, according to war crimes investigators, with aiding in executing troublemakers without trial by injecting lethal phenol into their arms, the reported method by which Field Marshal Erwin Rommel had met his end. Dr. Schreiber had ordered experimental injections on human guinea pigs, and subsequently, at Buchenwald concentration camp, four or five prisoners were dragged in and injected with raw phenol, causing them to double up in cramps and die.
Kicking, screaming young Polish girls had been held down by SS troops and forcibly operated on at Ravensbrueck concentration camp in August, 1943, and at least three were killed by experiments in gas gangrene. Dr. Carl Gebhart, who was hanged for these experiments, testified that he had discussed his work with Dr. Schreiber and that the latter had received reports on the experiments through official channels. A Nuremberg document also showed that Dr. Schreiber was second on the list of prominent German medical officers who had been detached to the SS for two days in May 1944 to attend a meeting at the SS Hospital in Hohenlychen, at which the experiments on the unwilling Polish girls were presented.
Human victims had also beenps in an attempt with human guinea pigs to develop a vaccine. Prisoners were inoculated with typhus just to keep the virus alive, a practice from which many had died. A professor at Natzweiler who was performing the experiments had written Dr. Schreiber on June 12, 1944, requesting more mice, though he had plenty of men, and Dr. Schreiber had responded with an affirmative reply on June 20, showing that he completely understood what was occurring at the camp.
Marquis Childs, writing from Wisconsin Rapids, Wisc., tells of Senator Taft racking up more miles in pursuit of a presidential nomination than perhaps any other candidate in history, exacting a grueling physical toll on him, but seeming to enjoy it. He was presently visiting Wisconsin for the second time, en route to the Pacific Northwest, and would return twice, one time for two intensive weeks prior to the April 1 primary.
When he had successfully run for re-election in 1950 to the Senate, he had stumped all over Ohio, visiting all of its 88 counties at least twice, and he was seeking to duplicate the same feat again in Wisconsin. Mr. Childs provides details of his daily schedule. The Senator stated that he did not get as tired as he once had in the 1950 campaign, but in the interim had his tonsils removed and felt much better for it.
Mr. Childs concludes that if it was the way to win the presidency, the Senator would win it.
Senator Taft would die in mid-1953.
James Marlow tells of those who ran the political parties, ranging from precinct workers to bosses, their reasons ranging from earnest beliefs in social responsibility to desire for power or loot.
Until the end of President Washington's second term in office, there had been no large political parties, and when his successor, Vice-President John Adams, was chosen, it was arranged between national and state leaders. For years afterward, presidential candidates were chosen by party caucuses in Congress, a procedure which declined in 1824 when the House chose John Quincy Adams over General Andrew Jackson for the presidency after neither achieved a majority in the electoral college, despite General Jackson having won both the popular vote and a plurality of the electors. But in 1828, General Jackson won the White House and remained for two terms. During each year of his term, he had urged Congress to establish direct primaries to let the people select the parties' presidential candidates, something which had, of course, never been done on a fully national basis until 1976.
Since about 1840, the candidates had been chosen by delegates from all the states at the parties' national conventions. The delegates primarily did the bidding of the party bosses, while theoretically representing the people back home.
In 1903, Robert LaFollette was able to convince his home state Legislature in Wisconsin to adopt a primary law, and by World War I, 18 states had such laws. Sixteen states still had primaries, each a little different from the other, some pledging delegates to vote as the people had voted, some giving the delegates a free hand at the convention, and others merely urging them to be conscientious. The preferences stated in the primaries, however, had no binding effect on the conventions, but as popularity contests, could provide an indicator of how people back home were thinking.
In their Growth of the American Republic, Samuel Eliot Morison and Henry Steele Commager had commented that the direct primaries favored by Mr. LaFollette, Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, had proved a disappointment for the professional politicians, who had quickly found ways to control the primary process.
Mr. Marlow suggests that just because these 16 states had failed in their primaries, did not mean that a national law providing for primaries in all of the states would not be successful in allowing the voters to pick the candidates. He suggests that Congress would be instrumental in providing for such a national law, which had been urged many times. In the previous few weeks, measures had been offered to establish such a national primary in one way or another. It was unlikely, however, that anything would be done about it in 1952.
A letter writer from Huntersville responds to a letter of February 8 in which the writer had stated categorically that high tariffs had never caused worldwide depression, a position which this writer goes to some length to dispute in great detail.


PlotStory: Gnaw starts when Jennifer Conrad (Mitchell) escapes from her abusive husband, to start a new life in a small apartment complex, where the handyman Terry (Gass) takes her under his wing, trying to make her feel welcome. When one of the neighbours spends hours crying at night before killing herself.
Jennifer must deal with her ex-husband Boyd (Johnson) finding her, just as she gets a pet turtle and more painfully an uncomfortable bite, which just seems to keep getting worse.
Story – The story here follows an abuse victim that is trying to escape her own life’s pain only to find herself dealing with the latest problem which has come her way in the form of a bite. This story does manage to show us how difficult getting out of an abusive relationship can be for the victim, where starting a new life can take more time than people believe, this side of the story is the strongest part because it shows the real horrors of Jennifer’s life. When we get into the mystery about the bites, it does go on the routine way, until we learn the truth, which makes both sides of the story get connected nicely.
Settings – Most of the film remains in the hotel complex which is a place where people go to start life again.
Scene of the Movie – The showdown in the room.
Overall: Horror that tests the reality of life.


Home / Water Education Resources / Can You Have a Septic Tank Without a Leach Field?
Whether you’re building a new home or repairing an existing septic system, you may be wondering how necessary a leach field really is. While your septic tank holds the wastewater flowing from your home, it can only hold so much. A leach field is needed to filter out that wastewater. However, when space or environmental sensitivity are concerns, alternative septic systems and leach fields may be an option.
In homes without connection to municipal sewers, septic systems are installed to remove wastewater. As you flush your toilets, take a shower, and even do your laundry, wastewater from your home flows into a septic tank. There, naturally occurring bacteria begin to break down the waste, which is divided into three layers. Solid waste sinks to the bottom, while oil and grease will float to the top. The middle layer is liquid waste, or effluent.
The leach field is an essential part of the system that removes the effluent from the tank and filters it throughout the ground beneath your yard. How does this happen? The liquid waste flows into the drain outlet pipe which leads to a series of perforated pipes. Wastewater then slowly seeps into the soil surrounding the pipes.
Why do you need a Leach Field with a Septic Tank?
Regular septic pumpings are an important part of system maintenance. Without a functioning leach field, however, you’d need to have your tank pumped by a professional much more frequently. If not, wastewater would begin to back up into your drains and toilets. You’d also likely notice an increase in utility costs without a way to filter wastewater efficiently.
Proper wastewater disposal is vital to the environment and communities for septic system usage. Most also require a leach field to be used in conjunction with a septic tank.
Because a leach field disperses wastewater into the surrounding soil, the soil needs to have the capacity to absorb and retain the water. A percolation test is used to test just that. If the soil surrounding your leach field cannot properly absorb wastewater, it could lead to flooding and other issues. When soil doesn’t pass the perc test, a standard septic system cannot be installed.
A hundred years ago, homes may have been built with septic systems, but not leach fields. Instead of filtering water throughout the yard, the wastewater would often spill into nearby waterways. Clearly, this is not an environmentally friendly or healthy solution today. Because of this, if you purchase an older home that does not have a leach field, you may be required to bring your septic system up to code.
Most building codes require a specific setback from lot lines and waterways. On rare occasions, the size of the lot may not be large enough to install a leach field that meets those setback regulations. In these situations, an alternative septic system will be needed.
Leach fields must be deep enough below ground to avoid damage from foot traffic or root systems. In areas where the water table is shallow, however, it’s possible for wastewater to flow into groundwater before it’s been properly treated with the microbes in the soil. To avoid groundwater contamination, an alternative septic system will be needed.
Contaminated waterways can wreak havoc on delicate ecosystems. If your planned leach field is too close in proximity to a body of water, it will likely violate building codes and cannot be installed.
These systems are a possible solution for areas with shallow water tables or dense soil. They are above ground, covered in topsoil, and include a pump chamber to separate scum and sludge, allowing effluent to flow freely into the septic tank.
For smaller spaces, an aerobic treatment system may be the right choice. With these systems, air is pulled into the septic tank, allowing the natural bacteria to actively clean it.
For environmentally sensitive areas, a sand filtration system could be the right choice. Wastewater passes directly through a recirculating sand filter to remove contaminants. It then safely disperses into the soil below.
While this system has a traditional drain field, wastewater does not merge with groundwater. That’s because the base of the drain field is lined with a thick waterproof material that creates a barrier between the wastewater and the soil. When the effluent makes its way through the field, it evaporates instead.
If you have a septic system, you need a way to remove the wastewater from it. In fact, it’s often required by law. In traditional septic systems, this process is effectively performed with a leach field. However, there are some instances when a leach field cannot be installed, including space restrictions, environmental concerns, and soil quality. When using a leach field isn’t possible, you’ll need to consider alternative septic systems. While typically more expensive, these systems are often more environmentally friendly and space conscious.

Pokemon GO has become a worldwide phenomenon as everyone is out on the streets trying to catch their favorite Pokemon and battling in gyms. However, there are still a lot of issues with the game and one of them is the tracking which is not reliable when it comes to actually finding the Pokemon that’s supposed to be around you. So, at times like this, you can download and install PokeMesh 4.2.0 APK on your Android device to locate exactly where the Pokemon are.

A VICIOUS CYCLE: SWEATING IT OUT FOR A GOOD CAUSE
Running in conjunction with the Tour Down Under is the Beat Cancer Tour, a charity bike ride which offers itide every stage of the Tour Down Under just hours before the pros. The only difference is that team members of the Beat Cancer Team are everyday people, they don't get paid and they aren't conditioned like the professionals. They are participating on their own accord, pushing their bodies to the limit for one common cause; to raise money for vital cancer research. These guys may not be professionals by nature, but in terms of dedication, respect and passion they share similar attributes.; it takes place throughout South Australia smack bang in the middle of January which is possibly the hottest time of year. It attracts some of the world's biggest names in cycling – these professionals are accustomed to cycling over 140km, a day, it's their job. The weather is something that you can't rely on, to cycle 140 km in 40 °C heat is a challenge even for the most hardened professionals on the tour.
On completion of the Tour, we asked Kim Scott to give us a brief rundown of each stage. When researching the various stages of the Tour the one thing that jumped out at me was the distances covered each day – that mixed with the extreme heat that they were riding in really does give you a greater appreciation of what these everyday people went through all for such a worthy cause – not all hero's wear capes some wear lycra too.
(17 /1) Stage 1: Unley to Lyndoch (145km) (40 °C)
The first stage was one for the sprinters, a gruelling 145km ride in 40-degree weather. Riders departed from Unley, heading through the heart of the city and out to the scenic Barossa Valley where riders took in picturesque views of vineyards and pastures. This leg concludes with a frantic but well-deserved downhill run to the finish line in Lyndoch. The Pro's only completed two laps of Lyndoch due to the extreme heat, missing out 27km of riding; however, the Beat Cancer team did all three loops in the same heat.
(18/1) Stage 2: Stirling to Paracombe (149km) (27 °C)
(19/1) Stage 3: Glenelg to Victor Harbor (144km) (39 °C)
(20/1) Stage 4: Norwood to Campbelltown (150km) (27 °C)
Stage Four saw cyclists depart Norwood and head towards the hills again for what would be another stage dominated by hills climbs. The peloton looped around Birdwood, Springton and Mt Torrens before a nice downhill ride to the finish line in Campbelltown. This was also the stage for the public BUPA ride, which meant Beat Cancer Tour had over 6000 additional riders along for the day.
(21/1) Stage 5: McLaren Vale to Willunga Hill (152km) (30 °C)
The famous Willunga stage is often heralded as the highlight of the tour; it's the longest stage coming in at 152km and often the deciding stage of the Tour. The day started in McLaren Vale which put on a show for the riders as usual. It featured three laps of loops along the coast, then twice up Willunga Hill for a frantic hill finish. The Beat Cancer Team made the first ascent of Willunga Hill at their own individual pace and finished the stage on the second ascent riding across the line as a team.
(22/1) Stage 6: Adelaide to Adelaide (90k) (36 °C)

Gain Valuable Metrics from Security Entrances
Security entrances are designed to mitigate unauthorized intrusion from tailgating, and when they are integrated with an access control system, can offer much more in terms of metrics on the events that occur at the entry. Many integrators do not know how to integrate security entrances to achieve these results. The webinar provides all the possible events that can be tracked for each type of security entrance and Brad and Zac share a few case studies about improper integration and the impact it had on the end user. When done right, metrics can help to identify patterns for investigation and action. For instance, if some entrances are experiencing high levels of tailgating attempt alarms or invalid credential alarms, security teams can train staff on the proper use of a turnstile. Cameras can also be turned on when the access control system receives a tailgating event alarm.
Discover Integration Techniques & Avoid Common Mistakes
Brad and Zac conclude the webinar by discussing common integration techniques. They share the many ways that credential and biometric readers can be mounted. They also talk about some mistakes they have seen in the field in terms of integration, including incorrect device placement, and also devices that authenticate a person too quickly or from too far away.
This webinar was presented on November 11, 2020. In order to view a recorded version of the webinar, please visit our website at https://content.boonedam.us/webinar-best-practices-integrating-acs-with-security-entrances and fill out a short form.

Trinidad and Tobago seeing contraction in airlift

There has been a marked contraction in airlift coming into Trinidad and Tobago to the extent that it is now more difficult to get to the twin island Caribbean republic by plane than it was pre-pandemic.
Figures from airport authorities reveal that for the month of February, leading up to this year’s Carnival, the number of flights coming to Trinidad and Tobago from all destinations decreased by 46 per cent. There were 408 flights thus far this year compared to 760 in 2020.
The shortage of flights is believed to have negatively impacted the number of visitors to what was billed ‘The Mother of All Carnivals’. Regional air carrier LIAT no longer has service in 2023 as compared to 2020 when all its flights were functional and provided much connectivity to the rest of the region.
Carnival visitors contracted
Tourism Minister Randall Mitchell has indicated that the number of visitors for Carnival fell from 37,000 in 2020 to 30,000 in 2023. American Airlines operates one turnaround flight per day compared to 2020 when it operated one turnaround and one overnight flight.

JetBlue has pulled its Fort Lauderdale route and now operates only one flight compared to 2020 when there were two flights per day. WestJet and Air Canada no longer fly to Trinidad compared to 2020 when they operated in the pre-COVID era. The statistics also show that Caribbean Airlines simply can’t pick up the slack with its limited number of aircraft and routes.
In a telephone interview with ET&T’s Express Business, Hayden Newton, general manager, said: “All of the major airlines have had challenges in terms of pilots and staffing. There were challenges with South West and American Airlines with their pilots. There was the zeal to come to Trinidad, but there weren’t enough flights coming in. For example, from Canada, the only carrier was Caribbean Airlines. Then there is the challenge of the labour laws in Canada with regard to flying to a particular jurisdiction. Flights coming out of Toronto (major hub) and other parts of Canada were down.”
He added: “If you look at American [Airlines], they would have had about three flights per day in 2020. The T&T-based Caribbean Airlines Limited (CAL) has flights from JFK, Miami and Fort Lauderdale. JFK and Miami are operating every day but Fort Lauderdale did not operate daily.

The airline operates either three times per week at Fort Lauderdale and Orlando operated twice per week. CAL has other flights that go twice weekly to the United States. American Airlines had much fewer flights into Trinidad.
JetBlue operated only the normal JFK flight. They did not have the Ft Lauderdale that they had in 2020. Before, JetBlue had two flights daily – one from JFK International Airport and one from Ft Lauderdale.
“United might have been the only one that operated in the same manner like 2020,” added Newton, admitting that the aviation industry was severely impacted and the number of pilots and airline personnel had decreased. He stated that there were fewer flights between Trinidad and Tobago.

One answered question is how different, or similar, I want the two sites to be. For the moment I've copied the http://www.traduction-edition-scientifique.fr/ site design. I've already had to adjust the structure, and of course translate the content back to English(!
The book I ordered at the beginning of the month finally arrived. It only took three weeks!
Remember the agency who asked for a copy of my CV?Well, the CV is done, but I've so far failed to send it off. I'm basically scared it won't be good enough. I HAVE TO GET OVER THIS!
Yesterday I was contacted by a translation agency. I met a girl in Barcelona when I went to the translators' meeting in October and gave her my card. It was her agency who contacted me yesterday. They're asking for a CV. What does a translator's CV look like?Next challenge!
I've followed up on the snail-mail marketing idea. There's a little local organisation that maintains a list of businesses at the gigantesque technology park just down the road. I popped in to ask for a copy of their business directory. Turns out they don't keep a paper copy; it's too big. But now I have the email address of the lady who can send me an electronic copy. Baby steps!
I'ou'll never guess who from?Google!
P.S. Google claim you can get your first campaign up and running in ten minutes. Oh no you can't!
First question – who with?now I'm no longer a 7112B?It didn'!?
Google tells me that it's the centre de formalités des entreprises that needs to know, and that turns out to be…good old URSSAF. So the form is in the envelope, stamped and ready to send. Wish me luck!e!
I know the idea is that you put the work in now and get the pay-off at some later date. But it's only an idea eh?

This project drives a number of LEDs via a very clever circuit.
This is where the LED is connected directly to the output via a resistor and when the output is HIGH, the LED illuminates. But if the micro has 5 outputs, only 5 LEDs can be illuminated.
When voltage is applied, one LED will illuminate and when the voltage is reversed, the other LED will illuminate. This will allow us to illuminate more than 5 LEDs.
This is the same as SCANNING.
To turn on LEDs 11,2,3,4, the drive lines are made LOW and the fifth line is taken to a transistor. When the fifth line is taken HIGH, the transistor supplies rail voltage to the 4 LEDs and they illuminate. They are then turned off and 4 outputs drive LEDs 5,6,7,8. The fifth output (GP4) drives the transistor.
Although each LED can be turned on and off individually, we cannot turn on some combinations of LEDs will turning on other LEDs that have the same lines that feed them. For example, we cannot turn on LEDs 1,4,5,8 at the same time, because to turn on LED4 GP5 has to be LOW and to turn on LED5 GP4 has to be HIGH. Rather than deal with all these conflicts, we scan the columns.
