Spatter matters: pipe weld inspection
Weld inspection internal coating
OMS have modified our internal weld inspection system to cover a wider field of view, to enable complete inspection before the internal coating of pipes
Offshore in the Persian Gulf, OMS have provided equipment and operators to report both visual and laser inspection for CRA (Corrosive Resistant Alloy) and CS (Carbon Steel) pipes for a range of diameter pipes girth welds.
Following modification of our ground breaking weld inspection tool, Auga™, for this specific project we were able to successfully record the following Laser and Visual results;
Root penetration
Root concavity (Negative root indications)
Undercut and other surface breaking defects (if any)
Purge quality/weld discoloration (oxidation)
The laser inspection will provide profile measurements across the root weld, including the pipe wall on either side of the root, as shown here in Figure 1.
The 8LV Auga has a high definition coloured recordable camera and laser profiling tool which will view the internal root bead profile, root pass defects and assess weld discoloration level. It can be connected to a range of lineup clamps and sits ready to perform an inspection. The measurement head is positioned over the root weld by means of a joystick controller. This extended field of view feature is important when collating sets of results for the internal field joint coating substrate area and the weld. This will identify any adverse indications like weld spatter that could affect the integrity of the coating in service. The tool performs a complete 360-degree rotation of the weld in less than 20 seconds, scanning and capturing weld profile images and data on the root pass.
The reporting of these results is completed by a trained operator onsite using the OMS WeldAnalysis software after each weld.
For the CRA pipe, stainless steel wheels will be supplied to avoid contamination of the liner. The wheels are expected and designed to last the entirety of the project without the need for replacement. They will however be inspected whenever the tool is removed from the pipe. These wheels allow the Auga™ to travel to the location where inspection must be carried out, some 300mm.
Crucially, Auga™ is designed to blend in seamlessly with the welding contractor's own pipe welding processes, thus enhancing the quality of the welds with no disruption to the welding process.
For more information on the Auga™ internal weld inspection tool from OMS, please contact Paul Eagle, Head of Global Business on 01279 656 038 or via email at email@example.com

Breakups & Divorce Support Group
Just broke up with someone or in the midst of a difficult divorce? Breaking up is difficult no matter what the circumstances are. They say that time heals all wounds, but sometimes a listening ear or a hug can work wonders for the heart. Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.

Ok, time for a good question?
How do you know when you are ready to date, or just go out with a man to have dinner, and a movie?
I read in one of the posts, that when you are ready, that love will find you. Thought that was so very neat.
How do you know when you are ready to date, or just go out with a man to have dinner, and a movie?
I read in one of the posts, that when you are ready, that love will find you. Thought that was so very neat.
I'm *not* ready yet, but I think I will be when I can go out on a date and not feel compelled to talk about my ex.
My kids, yes, not my ex.
My kids, yes, not my ex.
I'm not ready yet either but sometimes feel the pressure to do so when my ex is racking up tons of dates for himself. I will not get into a competition with him to make myself feel better. I think there is some truth to love will find you. At least I hope it's true;-)
when you realize that your happiness matters too. i thought that i would never be able to date again but have realized that my life is not over- its just beginning!!!
Way too early for me. I think about it but my self esteem is so floored even if someone would go out with me, I wouldn't be worth a damn to be with having my mind screwed up with thoughts of the X
About 6 months after my ex and I separated, I met a guy when I went out with a friend. He asked for my phone number, and actually called me. We lived about 3 hours apart, so we started seeing each other on the weekends that I did not have my kids. This lasted for about 4 months; and we are not seeing each other any longer. Although I miss him, and I may not have been quite ready to date, I am glad that I did. It made me feel attractive and alive again! I can now see me dating again and having fun!
I am not ready yet either.. but I agree... when I can go out with someone and not want to talk about my ex, then I will know I am ready to move on.
Because I've spent the last few years walking on eggshells around my wife, and NOW she wants a divorce, I am very excited about getting out there and meeting new people. I've been with my STBX for 20 years, so, I really need to cure my curiosity about other women.
I think it is very healthy to take some quality time to yourself, just so people don't end up back in an unhealthy relationship. However... everyone has their own timeline, as for me I predict two years or more. I am not interested right now, plus I don't think my son could handle it. It is true, when you are not looking for it... well it seems to find you... however I feel too vulnerable to make a clear judgment about a good relationship right now. It not only has to be right for me, but my son as well. I really don't need drama in my life... the guy would have to be old fashioned, protective, kind, loving, sheltering, dependable, have a relationship with God, well the list is long and meaningful to me.
All I can say is You WILL know when your ready. I have been seperated for 9 months now and decided I am ready to explore again. I'm not ready for a relationship, just casual dating... Dinner, movie,go to a sporting event.....things like that. Just some one to do stuff with so I dont have to do things alone. That's it. Then from there I find out what the next step would be. I have my first date tomorrow (Saturday). It's with a gentleman I have know for 4 years. So we'll see if dating is right for me. You'll know when your ready!
Definitely when you aren't thinking about your ex. I think definitely when I'm divorced and not just separated. I tried match.com. It cleared my thoughts that nobody would want to date someone with 3 kids, but it made me realize I am not the type to jump into a new relationship just to cure being alone. I actually don't mind not having a husband. It's not having another parent around that is hard. I am willing to go out with friends and some guy friend they have as long as they make sure it is prefaced with, "this is NOT a hook up." Okay, not to be weird or anything but . . . the whole idea of another man seeing me naked is not high on my priority list right now. I'm not disgusting or anything . . . it's just that I liked that I had a husband who I THOUGHT would love me and find me attractive even after having 3 kids. I really still look good in clothes, but is there a woman/mother out there who loves themselves naked? Really now. Okay, I just took this to a weird level, sorry.

Burning hearts and A brand new feeling
It has been a couple of days. The pain got really bad for a while. I saw Dr.L today and its not a bladder infection, it's it and the HRT. Progesterone is now causing cramping. Cramping + Tumour = Fun times. We started out on Ponstan. The cramping stopped but it still kills. I'm weak or fatigued. She said its alright to start taking my supplements. Iron could be it. Last blood test I was at .6. I'd rather not guess. My urine had lots of white cells in it, which is not surprising to me...it always does.
James took us out on Saturday afternoon. Iain and I are pedestrians. We ended up getting a frilly collar for Rose, groceries and I spent reward points on fast food. I could barely take 2 hours of errands with a car. 1 month to go. Lord grant me strength and energy so I may work.


text: He realises he has a lot to do for that to happen, but is feeling far happier than a few weeks ago, when his attempts to master the new-look Ducatti were doomed to failure. I couldnt get on with it for some reason, said Railton, right. I dont know what it was, but after things went badly at Brands Hatch and Donington, I switched back to the 848cc, 140hp twin-cylinder bike which brought me second place in the Ducatti Trioptions Cup last year. An improved performance was immediate, at Knockhill, in Scotland, a couple of weeks ago. He picked up two 848 Cup victories and wound up fifth overall. In theory, the new model bikes (899cc with a new-style chassis) should continue to dominate, but I reckon they can be beaten, he said. I aim to get the better of the new models and improve my overall position. That will take some inspired riding in the final five rounds 10 races starting at Brands this weekend. The Ducatti Cup races are supporting the Superbike Championships, so there will be a crowd of about 50,000 cheering on Railton & Co. Its a wonderful occasion at the best of times, but with such a big crowd and with the race taking place on the longest grand prix circuit, its a venue I will enjoy, Railton said. I know its a tough call to win the remaining 848 series races, but I reckon I can do it, and if I can fill third place overall I can look on the season as a success. To start the campaign on a new bike, then revert to the old style and still be in with a shout, suggests I know what I am doing. Ive just got to go out and prove it.

In 2009 I was invited by Jo Noble to Kampala, Uganda to participate in the design of a new performing arts center for Kika Troupe, an African dance and drumming company who recruits (and schools) orphans and trains them as performers in what now is a wildly popular regional entertainment - on land already purchased for the purpose.
Working with local architects, we discussed the parameters of the project: a stage perhaps in the round as an echo of African story circles; open to the equatorial climate, but covered against the rain, seating about 800, with the option to house other events including weddings; and constructed of local sustainable materials.
The company continues to perform in locations and venues in Uganda and throughout the region. Kaddu Yusef, the company's founder and leader, provides housing and schooling for all of their members
on Lake Victoria
I created a design for a three-sided arena anchored at the corners by small buildings which create entrances and house dressing rooms, control booths, work, office, and storage areas. The buildings are connected by risers with passages underneath to allow crossover between. One set of risers are wider to provide table seating.
The facility is covered with petal-like inverted roofs to channel water away. They are covered with locally made and inexpensive corrugated steel. The gaps between are covered with smaller overlapping roofs covered with clear corrugated fiberglass and raised above the main roofs to allow air flow.
All solid buildings are to be constructed using blocks pressed from soil and a small amount of concrete in a technique invented by a professor at the local university. Ugandan buildings are commonly constructed of "burnt brick", a process which both pollutes and denudes the forests. Wood, as I learned, is not used as a construction material because it is devoured by the ubiquitous termites who's mounds dot the landscape.
Seating is common, cheap, and ubiquitous resin chairs. In this case I arranged them in patterns reminiscent of African woven baskets.
Cameras and projectors in the corner buildings can provide images above the opposite audience risers., ensuring that no one is looking at backs.
At this point, the facility is yet to be realized.

You may have realized that I am a big sock monkey fan. 2 years ago I bought a sock monkey fat quarter pack. It sat in my fabric stash until the fall when I made this quilt using some of the fat quarters.
I have another baby shower this week and figured I should use up more of the fabric. The hardest part on these quilts is finding something to use as the borders since this line is long gone from the fabric stores.
I wasn't too sure of this quilt at first but I'm liking how it has turned out. I'm still not sold on the border so I made it smaller(4inches instead of 6.5)
Now fingers crossed I have enough flannel for the backing and off to work this week to get this one quilted and ready for baby. And my first finish of 2010!
sock monkeys!

text: Oliver Blatt 9 Posted December 14, 2016 So this is an interesting issue... Occassionaly, while the show is merrily running (schedule is enabled, tray light bulb is blue, shows are playing) I'll get the dreaded "this program has encountered an error and has to close" box. But, the show and schedule continue to play and work fine. Choosing the close program box changes the lightbulb red for a second, then it immediately changes to blue again, and one everything resets, everything keeps chugging along as expected. Rebooting the computer had not solved the problem, which just started this season. I'm running XP, and the computer has not been modified with new programs, or even connected to the internet in a few years. Watching the show log also gives me no clues or errors Other than the annoyance of seeing the error window, everything seems to be working fine, but I'd like to resolve the issue at some point. Has anyone had this issue? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

text: Please change back the report system, this 6 minimum reports it's getting old and it's pretty stupid. I play like 2-3 ranked games with people who don't see their own fault in gameplay and just get everyone to report who they feel is the reason they lost. And before you say have a positive mental attitude, i do. I was actually muted this last batch of reports cause my Meepo wants to practice meepo in a ranked game, meanwhile i can't defend myself cause i'm muted due to people just being hella upset. I also see a lot of my high mmr friends being in LP almost daily. It's like a curse if you're 5k+ cause you're expected to carry but at the same time the players below your mmr constantly feed so you can't carry. I'd like to be able to play ranked more than 3 games and not get LP just cause i only need 6 now instead of 12 , i'm not learning shit and it's actually making me a more upset player instead of a good one.

Conceived by Vanessa Carlos, co-founder of Carlos/Ishikawa in Stepney Green, which represents the likes of Oscar Murillo and Ed Fornieles, this annual event allows galleries from around the world to transcend geographical boundaries and collaborate. What's more, the whole scheme is based on generosity and mutual respect: participant galleries only have to pay their host a fee of £600 to cover expenses.Read More
Rochat's cutting-edge work has completely overtaken the gallery. Transparencies hang from the ceiling and the windows have been pasted over with digital prints on transparent vinyl, which gives a slightly psychedelic, stained-glass effect. Although Rochat trained in photography her textured work could easily be mis-interpreted as a completely different medium such as painting. She explains that, "there are no rules in my process," and her work could definitely be described as experimental.Read More
Shaun is a multifaceted painter and curator who first found his feet exhibiting in a squat in Peckham, South London. An expert colourist and mark maker, he works by his own sense of spontaneity and intuition. Shaun doesn't work with stories or ideas, but instead enters his studio and lets the painting direct itself. I was first exposed to his work in the Critic's Choice pages of the Financial Times a few years back, so was thrilled when his gallerist and collaborator Hannah Barry introduced us.Read More

Family Matching Experience
Role: Lead UX Designer and Manager | Company: Hanna Andersson
The Brief
Hanna Andersson's signature product is their amazing pajamas for kids & adults. Recognizing the trend of family matching, the company began offering family matching collections. Over a 3 year period, the number of collections grew from 6 to 50+.
To identify points of friction and opportunities for improvement, the UX team conducted user interviews; reviewed anonymous user recordings & heat maps; & validated the findings with google analytics.
The research showed that users were overwhelmed by the number of collections; had a hard time navigating between them; and when users were looking at products, they wanted a way to view what was relevant to the needs of their family.
The Solution
The main landing page focused the 50+ collections into groups that could easily be expanded to show relevant collections. We also simplified the product grid and brought a left hand navigation to the experience. This allowed the user to move between collections no matter where they were. We also leveraged emotive photography & video to excite the user about family moments.
Collection Modules
We combined the vast number of collections into overarching groups. To visually organize this for the user, we developed a new type of asset that would expose the collections once the user clicked on the button.
Simplified Product Grid
Testing showed that the user was distracted by to much information on the product page. At this point of the experience, they only needed to know who the product was for and the price.
We removed the clutter of repeating elements and simplified the information to the category (kids, adult, etc.) and price.
Expanded Product Tile
At this stage of the journey, the user wanted to add different product for their family members. We noticed an issue where users had to navigate to the product detail page, add the product, and then navigate back to the grid. To alleviate the extra page loads, we developed an expanded product tile function that would allow the user to quickly add items from the product grid.
Family Checklist
Within the product grid, we added a family checklist function so the customer could filter down to most relevant product. The user clicks on the button and the tray slides out to show the options for different family members. They select who they want to shop for and the return removes the extra offerings.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients (pts) due to unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease represent a rare, high risk group. Emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may be the preferred strategy but there are limited data. We investigated early and 1-year clinical outcomes following primary PCI in AMI pts with ULMCA disease.
The study population consisted of a total 47 consecutive AMI ULMCA disease underwent primary PCI between November 2004 and August 2012. GP IIb/IIIa blocker and intraarterial balloon pump support were depending on physician's discretion. We evaluated major cumulative clinical outcomes up to 1 year.
Male were in 78.7% and mean age was 66.39 ± 9.504. Half of pts were presented with STEMI (48.9%). Hypertension 66.0%, diabetes 46.8%, smoking 54.2% and mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 43.23± 12.26%. At 1 year, total mortality was 23.4% and target lesion revascularization (TLR) was 14.9% (table). In the multivariate logistic analysis, LVEF was an independent predictor for 1year mortality.
In AMI pts with ULMCA as a culprit lesion, emergency PCI is a valuable therapeutic strategy. However, the rate of major clinical events was relatively high and overall long-term survival depends on LV systolic function on arrival. Special care should be warranted.

Eyepatchentertainmen teaches you how to choose the best prime lens for Canon cameras, for video shooting. The faster the lens, the lower the light we need. The dark sequence was shot using a Nikon 15 mm 1.8 lens. Canon 50 mm 1.8 or the Nikon 50 mm 1.8 are good starting prime lenses. These run about 100 dollars. Sigma 30 mm 1.4 is a way up from that. After that there is the Canon L series primes, those are very good as well. Adaptation is also needed when you start using lenses. The most expensive is not the best for your usage. EBay lens buying experimentation is also needed, for low-cost projects.

Parametric study of flutter for an airfoil in inviscid transonic flow
Journal Article
A parametric study of flutter was conducted for an airfoil in inviscid transonic flow. An inviscid computational flow dynamic harmonic balance aerodynamic-Euler-based code was used for the investigation. The computational efficiency of the time-linearized option of the harmonic balance aerodynamic model allows a much more thorough exploration of the parameter range than was previously achieved.

In this tutorial, we will walk you through the setup of your deep learning environment using Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Please follow the steps carefully, and do not hesitate to ask for help once you run into problems.
Important note: this setup is part of Assignment 0.
Go to Google Cloud Console (https://cloud.google.com/) and sign in with your LionMail account (firstname.lastname@example.com).. If you sign up with some other account, you will not be able to use google coupons provided by instructors.
If you are a new user of Google cloud, you can get $300 credits for free by clicking 'Get started for free'. You can explore the GCP for a while with the free credits as you like. After the add/drop period, students will get educational coupons from instructors to cover course-related google cloud expenses.
Redeem your educational google cloud coupons (Google cloud coupon distribution method TBD). Using GPU charges are approximately $1/hour - so please manage your computational resources wisely. A good way to do this is to create a deep learning environment on your local computer and debug your code there, and only finally run it in the Google Cloud when more powerful computational resources are needed. Note that some assignments can be executed even on non-GPU personal computers.
If you have received the coupon code, go to https://console.cloud.google.com/education, select your LionMail account on the top right , and redeem the coupon.
Now, you can visit your Google Cloud dashboard.
Create your project, click 'Select a project' -> 'NEW PROJECT'. For administrative reasons, we request that you use 'ecbm4040-yourUNI' as your project name. Choose the correct billing account, the one from the coupon. After a few seconds, you should be able to see your newly created project's homepage.
Edit your GPU quota.
Make sure to select the project you just created, 'ecbm4040-yourUNI'. If you are using the project/Google cloud for the first time, you may not immediately be able to change the quota - you may have to first go through the step "Create a new GCE virtual machine(VM) instance".
Create a new GCE virtual machine(VM) instance. We provide you with 2 options:
Now you can create your instance
Note: check GPU availability on this site, you may need to set different zone.
In boot disk section, select from custom image 'ecbm4040-imageforstudents-tf113cuda100cudnn75' under project 'ecbm4040-ta'.
In this image, we will use tensorflow 1.13.1, CUDA 10.0 and cuDNN v7.5.
50GB of disk size should be enough for course use.
Note: you can always create another instance of more computation power for your project, it follows the same procedure.
There are two methods to establish a connection to an instance:Note: the image which we provide to you has all the tools installed under the user 'ecbm4040'. If you ssh into another user name, some of the components (such as Miniconda) will not work.
Method 1 - Connect online: (from your googleCloud/ComputeEngine/VMinstances window) Click the 'SSH' button next to your running instance. This is very useful for uploading/downloading files from a local/personal computer to the instance which is running in the cloud.
After the connection is established (a cmd window will appear), change your Linux user name into 'ecbm4040'.
Method 2 - Connect using the Google Cloud SDK: Recommended, and will be used later for Jupyter Notebook.
For this method, you need to install the Google Cloud SDK first.
After the installation, the instructions can be called via command lines from the local computer. Open a
console (cmd window), and initialize your Gcloud account using
gcloud init command.
If this is the first
activity after you installed the SDK, you will be directed to a website. The
information such as zone or project id should conform with your previous online settings.
After the initialization, type
gcloud init again, and you should see something like the following:
Now you can use ssh tools provided by Google Cloud SDK to connect to your instance (running in the cloud) with the following command:
gcloud compute ssh ecbm4040@your_instance_name
Later you should type
exit to close the connection.
This step will check whether the tools have been properly installed, and if they are available.
CUDA examination: First, check whether a GPU device is available:
ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ nvidia-smi
If GPU is available, then it will show some basic info of your GPU device.
Second, verify CUDA installation.
ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ nvcc -V
If it is correctly installed, then this command will return the information about CUDA version.
Miniconda is a light version of Anaconda, which helps you manage python and other software versions and environments (note that for the local computer setup, we described the installation of Anaconda 3). In our source image in the cloud, a virtual python (conda) environment 'envTF113' has been set up. You need to use the following command to activate it. Moreover, for your future assignments, it is also recommended to use the same environment.
ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ source activate envTF113
After the activation, you can review all installed packages by
(envTF113)ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ conda list
TensorFlow is an open-source library for deep learning provided by Google. The version of TensorFlow in the cloud instance which we provide is 1.13.1 - this is the version that needs to be used to complete the assignments for E4040 in 2019. If you want to use TensorFlow version 2.0 for some other project, you can either follow the tf 2.0 installation part on this page: gcp-from-scratch, or follow that instructions to create the instance by yourself.
To check the installation of TensorFlow 1.13, type
python, and try to run the
following code:
(Note: don't confuse Python prompt
>> for the Linux command prompt
>> import tensorflow as tf
>> # Creates a graph.
>> a = tf.constant([1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0], shape=[2, 3], name='a')
>> b = tf.constant([1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0], shape=[3, 2], name='b')
>> c = tf.matmul(a, b)
>> # Creates a session with log_device_placement set to True.
>> sess = tf.Session(config=tf.ConfigProto(log_device_placement=True))
>> # Runs the instructions (for TensorFlow 1.13 sessions are required)
>> print(sess.run(c))
If TensorFlow is correctly installed and if it is using the GPU in the backend, you will then see something like this
MatMul: (MatMul): /job:localhost/replica:0/task:0/device:GPU:0
2019-09-05 01:58:10.257637: I tensorflow/core/common_runtime/placer.cc:1059] MatMul: (MatMul)/job:localhost/replica:0/task:0/device:GPU:0

[[22. 28.]
[49. 64.]]
exit() to quit Python.
Now, we get started on how to open your Jupyter notebook on your Google Cloud VM instance.
Jupyter has been installed in the 'envTF113' virtual environment.
Configure your Jupyter notebook
First, generate a new configuration file.
(envTF113)ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ jupyter notebook --generate-config
Open this config file.
(envTF113)ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ vi ~/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py
Add the following lines into the file. If you are new to Linux and don't know how to use vi editor, see this quick tutorial: https://www.cs.colostate.edu/helpdocs/vi.html
c = get_config()
c.NotebookApp.open_browser = False
c.NotebookApp.port =9999 # or other port number
Generate your jupyter login password, press Enter for no password.
(envTF113)ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ jupyter notebook password
Enter password:
Verify password:
[NotebookPasswordApp] Wrote hashed password to /Users/you/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.json
Open Jupyter notebook.
(envTF113)ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ jupyter notebook
Now, your Jupyter notebook server is running remotely. You need to connect your local computer to the server in order to view your Jupyter notebooks with your browser.
Open a console and use SSH to connect to jupyter notebook. Type in following code to set up a connection with your remote instance. Note that in "-L 9999:localhost:9999", the first "9999" is your local port and you can set another port number if you want. The second "9999" is the remote port number and it should be the same as the port that jupyter notebook server is running.
gcloud compute ssh --ssh-flag="-L 9999:localhost:9999" --zone "us-east1-d" "ecbm4040@your-instance-name"
Open your browser(Chrome, IE etc.)
Go to
http://localhost:9999 or
and you will be directed to your remote Jupyter server. Type in your jupyter password that you created
before, and now you can enter your home directory.
An optional way to connect to Jupyter Notebook using SSH in GCP console without Google Cloud SDK:
You should be directed to jupyter notebook homepage.
Now, you have finished prerequisite of Assignment 0. Please proceed to the rest of it.
Tmux, a screen multiplexer. It allows you to run multiple programs in multiple window panes within one terminal. That capability makes Tmux a popular tool on a remote server (such as GCP). If you want to explore more applications of Tmux, you can click here, or visit this well-written note: http://deeplearning.lipingyang.org/2017/06/28/tmux-resources/
Then we would introduce how to use it, and how helpful it is on GCP.
ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ source activate envTF113
Next, create a Tmux session.
(envTF113)ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ tmux new -s session1
Then you will be in the session named 'session1'.
ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ jupyter notebook
For more commands of Tmux, you can refer to this link: https://www.hamvocke.com/blog/a-quick-and-easy-guide-to-tmux/
The biggest advantage of Tmux here is that it allows you run the process even though you have disconnected to your instance from local. If your network has accidentially broken, or you need to close your laptop, the process would still be running in the session, unless you kill the whole session. We highly recommend you to train any time-consuming network in a Tmux session.
(envTF113)ecbm4040@your-instance-name: $ pip install runipy
Suppose you've opened Jupyter notebook, and used SSH to connect to it. Attach to your created Tmux session ('session1' here). Split the window panes. Switch to the new window pane, then you can use runipy to run your .ipynb file.
For more details, see http://deeplearning.lipingyang.org/2018/03/29/run-jupyter-notebook-from-terminal-with-tmux/

Serum high-sensitivity CRP was measured by latex-enhanced immunonephelometry (Mission Diagnostics; assay CV 8%). RBC were collected following separation from plasma by centrifugation and freezing at ?80 C prior to analysis. As previously described, RBC FA composition was analyzed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection [24]. Quickly, lipids had been extracted, methylated to create fatty acidity methyl esters (FAMEs), and examined by gas chromatography on the GC2010 (Shimadzu Company, Columbia, MD, USA) built with a 100-m SP-2560 column (Supelco, Bellefonte, PA, USA). Essential fatty acids had been identified in comparison with a typical combination of FAs quality of RBCs (GLC 727; Nu-Check Prep, Waterville, MN, USA) that differentiated WIN 55,212-2 mesylate enzyme inhibitor between suit plots had been examined to make sure homoscedasticity. In order to avoid severe outliers because of acute an infection in Research 1, baseline CRP beliefs exceeding 10 mg/L (= 3) had been excluded from evaluation. For Research 1, evaluation of variance (ANOVA) was WIN 55,212-2 mesylate enzyme inhibitor utilized to assess between group distinctions in RBC evaluations between treatment groupings. 3. Outcomes 3.1. Pre-Supplementation RBC n-3 DPA: Organizations with Fasting Triglycerides and Markers of Irritation, and Sex Distinctions Baseline RBC = ?0.30, = 0.001) and Research 2 (Amount 2B, = ?0.33, = 0.04). For each 1% upsurge in baseline RBC crimson bloodstream cell (RBC) % docosapentaenoic acidity (DPA = 139.3 ? 2022= 384 ? 5922 0.001) (Amount 3A). A threshold is normally recommended by This model suit for results, in a way that RBC crimson bloodstream cell (RBC) % docosapentaenoic acidity (DPA = 32.43 ? 3236+ 109213baseline. Different lowercase WIN 55,212-2 mesylate enzyme inhibitor words indicate significant distinctions between treatment groupings, 0.05 (Tukey-adjusted pairwise comparisons). 4. Debate To boost our knowledge of the function of DPA in medical benefits produced from [32]. Additionally, no relationship between RBC [35]. Based on the structural variations of ethyl ester forms), variations in participant characteristics, and/or the period of supplementation. Earlier work has not demonstrated a significant difference in bioavailability between these preparations, and we did not observe the same discordance in RBC EPA reactions between Study 1 and Study 2. Given that the average RBC lifespan is definitely ~120 days, it is likely the longer supplementation period of Study 1 (real DPA supplementation would help to clarify this relationship. Furthermore, variations in the rate of metabolism of the individual em n /em -3 fatty acids and the inter-convertibility of em n /em -3 DPA and EPA suggest that endogenous em n /em -3 DPA reserves could serve as stores of EPA. In both cell-based [45] and medical studies [47], DPA supplementation offers been shown to increase EPA. There also appears to be cell/cells specificity for em n /em -3 storage as DHA is definitely enriched in myocardial and neuronal membranes [49] and the EPA content material of RBCs is lower than that of em n /em -3 DPA and DHA [18,25,42,47]. It has been suggested that plasma EPA serves as a more dynamic and readily available pool of long-chain em n /em -3 fatty acids that raises and decreases IL18R antibody more quickly than DHA [10,41,42]. Therefore, 22-carbon fatty acids may be preferentially stored in specific cells compartments, and in the case of WIN 55,212-2 mesylate enzyme inhibitor em n /em -3 DPA, may serve to replenish plasma EPA that has been utilized. This may have important implications for the prevention or treatment of disease claims known to be related to em n /em -3 fatty acid intake and warrants further study. Complete explanations from the particular restrictions and talents of Research 1 and Research 2 possess WIN 55,212-2 mesylate enzyme inhibitor previously been talked about [4,22,23]. For the framework of the existing analysis, both research utilized well-characterized em /em -3 products n, and compliance prices had been very high. Individuals for both scholarly research were also recruited according to strict addition/exclusion requirements and were necessary to end up being low.

Introduction: Transport development prospects against a backdrop of economic uncertainty
The downturn in the global economy due to the global financial crisis of 2009 has had a significant impact on the transport sector across the Asia and Pacific region. Whereas prior to the global financial crisis, the world enjoyed a period of exceptionally strong economic growth (Figure I-1), by 2008 the slowdown that had begun in the USA had extended to all of the major economies. Developed countries were particularly hard hit, with growth turning negative in Japan and the USA, and falling to below 1 per cent in the European Union. In line with the downturn in the global economy, growth rates in the ESCAP region also began to decline in 2008 and slumped sharply in 2009, although most groups of countries rebounded in 2010.

I think specific experiences of Consciousness are affected by a feedback process with surrounding expressions of Substance and Information. However, I doubt any Substance or Information could abide in any meaningful sense in the entire absence of Consciousness. To me, each of the three, CSI, seems like a fundament in that general sense. Or, if you prefer emergent, they are co-equal correlative emergents, each being necessary to the expression of the other two.

Pre-workouts, Tried them – and yes while they initially give you a bit of a face tingle, and sometimes do improve your focus; when these effect wear off, well personally, the crash in energy was not worth it.
In my opinion, one of the most effective pre-workout drinks might surprise you, and you won't find it on the shelves of your local supplement store. You don't have to scoop it out of a bottle with a flashy label and mix it with water. All you have to do is swing by a coffee shop and order an Americano. Or just make your coffee at home and drink it before you go.
Perhaps understandably if unfairly, coffee has got a bad rap over the years from a health viewpoint. In fact many studies in the past pointed particularly to the adverse health effects of coffee from heartburn and high blood pressure to stomach ulcers and sleep disturbance. Not to mind the addictive potential of all that caffeine. But downing a cup of Coffee before your workout provides more than just an added energy boost—there are a whole slew of health benefits that come along with it.
– Rich in antioxidants which can help fight against cancer and various inflammatory processes in the body.
– May support more flexible blood vessels and lower your risk of stroke and heart disease.
– May protect against ageing processes in the body & Alzheimer's.
– Lowers risk of developing diabetes by more that 10%.
Of course, caffeine in coffee can become addictive; consequent withdrawal effects including fatigue, headache and irritability being commonly seen. It's all about moderation. Here are my top reasons why I choose to power up with black coffee before I work out.
1. Accelerates fat loss
Perhaps the greatest benefit of having coffee before your workout are its fat-burning properties. Coffee—when consumed before exercise—can cause fat cells to be used as an energy source, as opposed to glycogen. Also, the high amounts of caffeine in black coffee will increase your metabolism, which makes you burn more calories throughout the day. Having coffee before exercise enhances that effect.
AND, caffeine and other compounds found in coffee act as an appetite suppressant, making you consume less overall.
2. Increases performance
Several studies have demonstrated a link between caffeine intake before exercise and increased athletic performance. Studies have been conducted to show that athletes can "train at a greater power output and/or train longer" after caffeine consumption. So to gain an extra edge in your training sessions, coffee might be just what you need.
3. Improves focus
Along with increased energy to push through tough workouts, black coffee provides an increase in mental focus as well. Improved focus will help keep workouts productive and effective.
4. Decreases muscle pain
Studies have found that some people who consume coffee prior to exercise experienced less muscle pain during their workout than their non-caffeinated counterparts. Handy knowing you can complete more reps at a higher resistance during your weight training sessions, and run faster and longer during your cardio workouts.
But truth is everyone is different and I believe the key is to become an expert in your own wellbeing. Know yourself what your body can handle and go from there.
Just bear in mind that some people can be quite sensitive to the effects of caffeine. If you are not getting good quality sleep or if you're feeling irritable on edge and especially if you're getting palpitations then coffee may be the culprit. And if that's the case, try going without.

J-Steppers Dance Team Coach J-Steppers Dance Team Assistant Coach
February 2019
Dear Parent/Guardian:
Your daughter/son has expressed an interest in attending tryouts for the Junction City High School J-Stepper Dance Team. There are a few things that I need to bring to your attention concerning our team. Dance Team is a year-long commitment. We begin meeting/practicing in April for camp and will continue to practice through late February of the following year. This is a HUGE responsibility on the student's part to commit to an activity that covers such a long period of time. Regular practices are held every Tuesday and Thursday with the time to be determined. We also will have a summer practice schedule to prepare for camp and the upcoming football season. It is also encouraged that all dance team members enroll in a strength and conditioning class during the school year. If you are a senior, you only need to take the class for 1st semester.
There are also costs associated with the team. For first time dance team members, the costs may be slightly higher due to purchasing first time items. I've listed below an approximate amount for the items that each team member will be required to purchase. As required by our school district, all items must be paid in full before they are delivered.
Dance Camp (optional – but highly recommended) $275.00
Camp wear (to be worn all year) $150.00 + tax
*Regular Jazz pants, ankle pants, crop pants & shorts for the year $130.00 + tax
Tennis Shoes $ 75.00 + tax
Hip Hop Shoes $ 60.00 + tax
*Jazz Shoes x2 (tan & black pair) $ 80.00 + tax
*First year expenses.
-All items are approximate costs.

Please read carefully!
Part 1 of tryouts: All tryout candidates should come prepared with a one minutes (or less) tryout routine. You may have your music on a CD, IPod or your phone. This routine can be hip-hop, jazz, lyrical, pom, kick or a routine that covers multiple styles of dance. We will be judging your appearance, strength of movement, and your ability to dance. We will not be judging your choreography. Make sure that this routine is an example of what you are capable of dancing. Find music that moves you; be comfortable with your movement. Candidates will also have a technique check off sheet that they will complete. Technical elements to complete will be Single & Double pirouette, split leap, calypso & splits. There will also be a time that candidates may show advanced technical skills. Start working NOW on your flexibility; turns; jumps and overall technique.
Part 2 of tryouts: Candidates will learn a jazz/kick combination that they will perform in small groups for the coaches/judges. This combination will incorporate basic jazz and kick technique and movement across the floor. This would include basic jazz arm placement; leg placement, pointed toes; chin/head placement etc. Allow your movements to go from your fingertips to your toes! Kick; you should have the basics and we will teach the rest. Basic body alignment (at attention) for kick would include; feet together, shoulders back, chins up, stomachs in, arms locked, hands in blades. The WHOLE PACKAGE!
Break for lunch: 30 minutes
Part 3 of tryouts: Candidates will learn a hip-hop/pom combination that they will perform in small groups for the coaches/judges. We will be looking for body movement & rhythm in the hip-hop combo. If Hip Hop is difficult for you "to get into", begin now by dancing in front of a mirror and get comfortable with how you move! Pom, we will be looking for sharp, strong movements. Straight arms, shoulders back, proper body alignment.
Team Announced: Shortly following the last routine of the day, the 2019-20 team will be announced! Those that did not make the team will have the opportunity to talk with the coach about their tryout and get feedback on improvement.
Please be sure that being a J-Stepper is HARD WORK! YOU should be willing and committed to making this the best experience of YOUR high school years.
I have listed a few things the coaches/judges will be looking for during tryouts:
Attire: Should be presentable at all times. No bellies showing, no jewelry, hair back & out of your face, no fingernail polishes and fingernails should be trimmed short. Proper attire would be shorts or dance pants/capris; tight fitting shirt; sports bra; jazz shoes or tennis shoes. First impressions are important!
Attitude: We want a team that will "Make us want to dance with them". You should come with a lot of energy and enthusiasm. Just because you are a great dancer does not mean you will be selected. You must show us that you "need" to dance!!
"Movement without emotion is just exercise!"

Great Miles Per Gallon!
The miles per gallon in the city is amazing. If I don't take out of town trips, I fill up only once a month. Smooth driving vehicle very stylish. The two things I would change would be the back seats to come down in order to transport long item, and a larger trunk.
Great car at an amazing value!
