A process upset occurred that caused the gas temperature of
a centrifugal compressor to increase from the design condition
of Tstart = 300°F to
Tinf = 600°F in t = 0.25
hours. Some engineers said that the time was too short for the
rotor to be affected. However, the rotor had previously been
rubbed, which caused a costly downtime, and now
management was concerned. The engineer was asked, What
should be done?

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

warning sign red or other color, comfusing...
Usually when I miss a semicolon I get a red sign with a !.
Now it´s sometimes another color.
I think it´s better to just have red,
and if the other color is just recomendation,
it´s something wrong,
two example:
console.log('hello); - not give any red sign. in the 1 it got alot of red signs when missing '.
localStorage.setItem('bana', record.get('bana'); not any red sign,
but another color and info: expected '(' and instaed saw ';', mising semicolon.
if(a < 5)
b = 6;
gives nothing for the '*/'
please check this out.

One is a warning, one is an error.
You are correct about the code snippet:
if(a < 5) { b = 6; }*/Aaron Conran

Thanks for your reply.
I have some more if statment error,
and it´s a red sign.
And when I reopen the document,
it´s no error.
I have one for example a request,
but now it should not happen every time.
So if I add an if before,
I get the error, but nothing is wrong.
I have 10 screenshot as example.
Now I started to see this on the first Architect.
I think it´s just comfusing with different colors,
no need for information.
It should have an 'i' instead of '!'.

No need to get information during writeing a line that it´s missing some signs.
I know that the end ')' is missing when writing console.log('Hello_world
Please remove that til next time.

I have a Google Apps account with 1 primary domain and a secondary alias domain (let's say example.co.uk and example.com). When I send emails from the alias domain, the receiving person sees the sender as "email@example.com On Behalf Of email@example.com", which is a bit messy. How do I get rid of this?
To do this, you need to set up Gmail to send emails via an "external" mail server. However, since the alias domain is already registered with Google, you can in fact set this "external" server to their servers and have it work just fine!
If you don't have this other domain added as an alias and are just sending from an additional email address you'll have to send via the email servers of this other domain.
(Yes, I know I answered my own question, but it took me an age to figure this out, so I wanted to share it!)
You can use gmail's send-through feature. Under settings -> accounts and import, edit the email address in question, and when prompted, choose to "send email through example.com SMTP servers". After configuring the SMTP server settings, you should be good to go.
Here's my writeup on why the accepted answer both works and doesn't:
Basically, you need to set both the SPF and DKIM fields for "via" to go away. There's a bug that removes "via" if you have neither set, but that's just a bug, and you really should set both for deliverability anyway. That should allow you to properly remove the "on behalf of" display in Gmail.

Roughly 30,000 people lose a finger to amputation every year, and in 2010 Colin Macduff became part of that statistic during an explosives accident.
Instead of getting depressed about the accident, the former Navy man who did two tours of duty in Desert Shield started an entirely new career path.
After the accident, Macduff drew on his education, training and love of bikes to make a creative new prosthetic that gives him the dexterity to do whatever he wants, including working in the bike shop in his garage.
Macduff's wife, Becky, will never forget the day of the accident.
"It was really scary to look at the finger. It was really scary," she said.
Macduff's doctor told him he'd get used to the amputation, but he knew that wasn't going to happen.
"I'm sorry, you'll never get used to this," Macduff said.
He was still in the recovery room after surgery when he was hit with a bolt of inspiration.
"At three in the morning he woke me up and said, 'I'm going to make me a finger out of bicycle parts.' And I just smiled and said, 'You've had too much medication ,you should go back to sleep,'" Becky said.
Back home, Macduff emerged from his shop one day with an odd looking contraption made using pieces of a bike's handlebars. It took him eight hours of cutting, grinding and welding to get the first bio-mechanical finger.
"It's not designed to make a tight fist, it's designed to grab a tool," he said.
With just three moving parts, the design was awarded a U.S. patent and Macduff is now fitting other amputees.
"To give hope back to patient to have function again, to do their job, to do the simplest things like help grab a coffee cup," he said.
It takes about 10 to 12 weeks for a patient to get a new finger, and insurance usually covers 100 percent of the cost.

Are you able to test whether a user is a fan of a page using the Facebook Javascript SDK without the user granting permissions? All I need is to see whether the user is a fan, if so redirect them to another page. I can do this server side using the C# Facebook SDK, without the user granting permissions.
The reason I am asking is, sometimes it is tedious creating a simple MVC app just so I can test whether the user is a fan of the page. If I can do this with the JS SDK, this will save me an enormous amount of time.

In viewing a question about nose-picking, I was considering other habits and how the solutions applied to those habits. What does one do if the habit is hair chewing? Lip chewing? Nail biting? . . . Are there any universal remedies?
Habits exist because they make it easier for us to cope with some situations. If you focus on eliminating the habit, coping will become more difficult. Try to focus on meeting the need that the habit is soothing. For example if a child is hair biting when she is worried, teach her to recognize her body's signs and her mind's signs that she is worried-- including hair biting. You can do this by asking her how she feels, or how her tummy feels and how her head feels etc-- when she is biting her hair. Then, once she can identify these signs, she can use them to trigger a safe, acceptable way of coping, such as deep breathing, talking to a trusted friend, singing, meditating, or exercise. Any time you want to break a habit, think of what you want to replace it with.
Hair chewing, lip chewing, and nail biting typically begin as self-soothing behaviors. So much of How to go about weaning a child from its "Lovey" is relevant here.
In addition, identifying sources of stress is very important. Ask the child what they worry about, and then listen. If the child doesn't articulate what bothers her or him, then try to be observant. If you can identify situations when the child is likely to start the habit, you may be able to help prevent it.
Teaching the child other self comfort measures is very important. Though rare, hair chewing can lead to bezoar production. Aside from cosmetic concerns lip biting and nail biting are generally safe.
Calling attention to the habit will not help.
Occasionally a habit that begins because of anxiety can continue because it is just physically soothing. For this situation, some may be acceptable, and others may be worth trying to desensitize. Exercise, dancing, or other physical play are great ways to cope with physical habits because they shifts the focus of the mind and body away from the habit's specific body part into something more fun and productive.

ASSOCIATED PRESS -- A Food and Drug Administration report says the number of prescriptions for kids is down seven percent from 2002. American kids are taking fewer antibiotics but more drugs for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD.
The FDA report published in the journal Pediatrics, looked at drugs prescribed in the last decade for kids aged 17 and under.
Antibiotic prescriptions dropped by 14-percent over the course of the study, though they're still the most prescribed medication for children and teens. Experts say the decline is due to physician concerns that overuse will lead to antibiotic resistance.
ADHD prescriptions jumped by almost 50-percent. Experts point to increased diagnosis and better medicines for the increase but local internist at Texas Health WNJ Dr. Muhammed Choudry says, we should still be mindful about who prescribes this type of medication to our kids.
"We should also remain cautious about over diagnosing ADHD," said Choudry. "The diagnosis should certainly be confirmed by a professional who has extensive experience in diagnosing this medical condition."
Dr. Choudhry also says parents should watch out for unnecessary hormones and chemicals in foods which may also be responsible for the rise in ADHD medication.

Suppose a point particle is constrained to move on the curve $y=x^2$. This would then be a non-holonomic geometric constraint since the particle has one degree of freedom and requires two coordinates ($x$ and $y$) to describe its position fully (clarification about aforementioned statement is needed). My question is (if) this constraint is non-holonomic, how come $y$ can be expressed in terms of $x$ as a finite relation (i.e. $y=x^2$)?
Using a Cartesian coordinate system, the particle has two degrees of freedom because you need two variables to define its position. You use the holonomic contraint to eliminate a coordinate and so reduce the coordinates and degree of freedom by one, but transforming the coordinates in such a way to make this obvious. I.e along the path it's constrained to move along! Clever eh? $$\begin{align*}dt &= \sqrt{\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2 + 1}= \sqrt{\left(2x\right)^2 + 1}\\ t &= \frac 1 4\left(2\sqrt{4x^2 + 1}x+ \text{sinh}^{-1}(2x)\right) \end{align*}$$
Holonomic was introduced by Hertz in his book on mechanics, and comes from Greek to mean whole law. A holonomic constraint is therefore expressed in terms of the coordinates and not differentials that usually can't be integrated. This is equivalent to $f(q_1,q_2...,q_n,t) = 0$ making your constraint $y - x^2 = 0$ also holonomic.

What are some reasons for mathscinet listing a article, but then stating that there will be ``no review of this item''? In particular does it at all imply that the paper has little or no merit from a mathematical viewpoint?
You can see the "official line" here: http://www.ams.org/publications/math-reviews/mr-edit In particular,
In my experience, (and in addition to Thierry's and Andreas's list) this includes:
You ask "In particular does it at all imply that the paper has little or no merit from a mathematical viewpoint?". Well, certainly not, in some sense. A book review, or an elementary survey article, might well contain interesting mathematics, and might well be useful to read (which also one can clearly understand why they wouldn't get a review-- a "review of a review" would be quite silly).
As to my case (2.) above-- yes, perhaps this is Math Reviews (or an editor, or someone who was sent the paper to review) making that judgement. This does seem to be a grey area, as it's not covered by the "Editorial Statement" I linked to (except maybe in the word "elementary"). It would be interesting to get more information about this...
Sometimes publications (especially in proceedings volumes) are preliminary versions of papers whose final version will appear elsewhere. In such cases (or cases suspected to be such), Mathematical Reviews will wait for the final version. This is why papers in proceedings volumes that are final versions will often have a footnote saying something like "This paper is in final form and no version of it will appear elsewhere." This amounts to "Hey, Math Reviews! Review this."
There are many things that the Mathematical Reviews does not review. Off the top of my head,
As to why MathSciNet would maintain a list of these items without reviewing them, I'm assuming that it's for the sake of completeness.

By the end of Safe House, I was led to think that Tobin Frost (Denzel Washington) was the good guy. That belief was challenged when he asked the other (good) guy to be better than him. Now, I am not a very careful viewer, so something along those lines may have been mentioned.
We are not really told exactly why Frost went rogue. But we can infer that this was because he was made a scapegoat:
From IMDb:
When Weston asks Frost why he went rogue, he replies that it was because of all the lies. He mentions a specific case where (I don't remember exactly) someone in his charge is killed as he was about to reveal information about corruption in the CIA. Rather than doing something about it, Frost chose to keep quiet and thereby compromises his own integrity. He now wants Weston to do better.
In the epilogue, Weston tells his CIA boss (Sam Shepard) that he doesn't have any list. When he leaves, he tells Shepard that he'll take it from there and subsequently, releases the list to the press. Shepard is one of those on it.
If you really squint your eyes, you might be able to see a glimmer of an argument for Frost also referring to Weston's private life with his French girlfriend. He wanted Weston to not compromise his personal life for the sake of the CIA. In the final scene, the couple are reunited.
Tobin Frost was a good guy.
When he asked "the other good guy" to be better than him, he was, in effect, saying:

Redirected from Starship base
this wiki
A starbase was a permanent support facility operated by Starfleet, consisting of space stations, drydocks, and/or ground installations. Starbases were hubs of activity and could serve multiple military and civilian functions, including:
- Starship maintenance, repair, and refitting (TOS: "Court Martial", TNG: "11001001", "Redemption II")
- Fleet coordination (DS9: "A Time to Stand", "You Are Cordially Invited")
- Research and development (TNG: "Parallels")
- Diplomatic, administrative, legal, and medical services (TNG: "The Measure Of A Man", "Samaritan Snare", DS9: "It's Only a Paper Moon", "Waltz")
- Personnel training (TNG: "Coming of Age")
- Commerce and recreation (TOS: "The Immunity Syndrome", DS9: "Emissary", "The Way of the Warrior")
- Defense of strategic locations (DS9: "Emissary", "Call to Arms")
Most Federation starbases were commanded by Starfleet officers, often a flag officer (TOS: "Court Martial"). Some, such as Deep Space Station K-7, were under civilian authority. (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles")
The first starbases were constructed in the mid-22nd century by Earth Starfleet. In 2154, the Enterprise was assigned to scout suitable planets on which starbases could be built. Among the potential candidates was the seventh planet of the Berengaria system. (ENT: "Bound") The United Federation of Planets inherited and expanded the starbase network.

I'm checking out what could be the best way to get to Turkey from North America (JFK, LAX, MEX, ATL are all possible departing airports depending on airfare). Crossing the Atlantic is actually no biggie, my primary question is if I should look for a direct flight to Istanbul, which could prove to be more expensive (and I doubt it would be a non-stop flight), or if I should aim for London/Frankfurt then RyanAir somewhere "close" like Budapest then move on via train to Turkey, or aim for Rome -> Brindisi -> Greece -> Istanbul.
Overland travel in Europe will not likely make your journey cheaper, even though you can occasionally get a cheap long distance bus trip through one of the Eurolines partners.
On the other hand, overland travel in Europe can significantly enrich your experience, so the additional cost might be worth it anyway. Then again, Istanbul being on the edge of Europe, it will be difficult to get there, overland, from nearly anywhere in Europe, at reasonable cost.
So, that probably means you're left with flying.
You should try the usual suspects, Hipmunk, Momondo and the new kid on the block with interesting results for Europe, Adioso. And, as Mark points out, you can try Flightfox, particularly if your departure and arrival airports are so flexible.
Then again, a quick search shows that Turkish Airlines flies from New York to Istanbul and back for the low, low price of 656 USD. In January. That's ridiculously cheap.
A colleague I work with recently spent a few weeks in Europe (from Vancouver). We hunted for flights beforehand, and one of the key 'tricks' to saving money was to simply look for any flight into anywhere in Europe. We looked at the major hubs - LON, FCO, AMS and more. From there, you can look at RyanAir and Easyjet, as well as bus/train options from there to Istanbul.
One more option to try is Flightfox. They crowdsource 'experts' who search for flights for you. So you can specify your criteria, no matter how bizarre, and have experts search for the best flights for you. It's not free, but if you look at my profile on here, there's a referral link for 25% off. (Disclosure, I'm one of their 'experts' who hunts for flights). Say that you're prepared to fly into anywhere in Europe before flying to Istanbul, for example, and you may be able to save quite a lot!
(with my colleague, in the end they flew into AMS, and then had a one-way ticket to FCO. They then travelled around by train, returning to Amsterdam and flying out once more)
