Inuktun Sighting #97: Versatrax 100™ on display at RoboBusiness 2017/
When asked to visualize the future, picturing robots in some capacity is probably a common response (especially if you're reading this). With a global trend for artificial intelligence and automation, the all-encompassing robotics industry is carving the way for how business is done. RoboBusiness, an event bringing together executives, engineers, investors and robotics experts from around the world, recently took place in Santa Clara, California, and featured Inuktun's Versatrax 100™ pipe inspection crawler vehicle.
The Versatrax 100™ was among varied technology being analyzed for robotic strategies that can be immediately put to use to grow businesses and stay ahead of the competition. With Inuktun's mandate to transform the future — giving operators the power to affect and transform outcomes by assessing and mitigating future risk and allowing clients to increasingly manage transformation of their own systems, without an intermediary, thanks to our Multi-Mission Modular (IM3™) technology, the power to transform IS the future.
Unsurprisingly, the companion robots and robo-dogs that get included in the expansive robot market gather more of the public's attention than the inspection robot division, but that's exactly where you'll find our proven workhorses getting the critical jobs done. Like the well-recognized Versatrax 100™ on display at RoboBusiness, all IM3™ technology is used across the world for the remote visual inspection and nondestructive testing in a myriad of industries including the oil and gas, petrochemical, nuclear, and mining sectors. Unmanned inspections continue to reduce risks to human and environmental safety. Structural integrity assessments assist operators and capital asset owners on preventative maintenance and remediation efforts. And while the Versatrax 100™ can access spaces as small as 100 millimetres (4 inches), it's not Inuktun's smallest inspection crawler robot that can provide confined space entry evaluations in the most inhospitable environments.
If you missed us in Advanced Motion Controls' booth at RoboBusiness, you can see our IM3™ technology at SPRINT Robotics Demonstration Days at BASF Freeport Plant and the ASNT Annual Conference next week! If you're looking for a reliable inspection crawler to get some real work done, contact our Inuktun team and TRANSFORM THE FUTURE.
We want to see your own #InuktunInTheWild sightings! Submit your entries to be featured on our blog today.

We believe that the fashion market has a way to go and there will need to be many changes in the years to come. With full respect for where we've been, we wish to take all that we've learned and look forward, blending traditional techniques with modern thought processes and design. We'd like to re-connect an emotional aspect to the industry, showing that garments have worth greater then dollar signs.
We also believe that 'fit' is a relative concept. Something that is personal to the wearer. With this in mind we believe all our garments to be gender-fluid. Wear our pieces how you will, fitted, loose, however you deem to be your choice of perfect 'fit'. By purchasing a Scott Benedictine piece, we enter into a kind of collaboration. We spent the time on every stitch, but its true form shows when you put it on.
All of the Scott Benedictine Shirting is individually hand cut and machined in our Melbourne Studio 'Maison de Benedictine'. We carefully select the fabrics and take the time to pre-wash and hand treat everything in order to obtain the perfect fit and feel. We believe in 'slow fashion' careful & concise.

House for Investor to Flip
Here is a complete home renovation we completed for our sister company FlipSide3 Investments, with all new kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, paint, and windows. We removed all of the outdated finishes from this house, and replaced them. The kitchen got brand new sparkling white cabinets, beautiful granite countertops, ceramic tile floors, modern lighting fixures, and stainless steel appliances. We added a peninsula, which increases the usable workspace in this kitchen, makes it more efficient for cooking, and also adds seating space. With new energy efficient windows and a soft gray paint job, this is now a neutral and pleasing room. The two bathrooms got new bathtubs, floor tiles, and tile sub surrounds. New vanities and fixtures complete the transformation. See the accent tiles around the tub surround and the niche for personal items in the shower. We take pride in our precise tile work. With all new energy efficient windows, new paint on all the walls and trim, and refinished wood floors throughout, this house is now beautifully remodeled with all of the finishes buyers are looking for!
Progress Images
By placing the new stainless refrigerator on this wall, we were able to maximize the cabinetry and countertop space in the work area. All of the new finishes, from the stainless appliances, to the white cabinets, gleaming granite, and ceramic tile floor, make this kitchen feel welcoming and inviting.

Missing, murdered women inquiry urged to earn trust of family members
WHITEHORSE — Families of missing and murdered indigenous women told a national inquiry on its final day of hearings in Whitehorse that they have little faith in the process and their trust must be earned.
The emotional hearings ran for three days and heard from dozens of family members representing 13 girls or women who have disappeared or been killed. Each story was unique, but the '60s Scoop, residential schools and police indifference were constant themes.
On Thursday, testimony took a more critical turn at times, with some speakers expressing wariness of the inquiry and urging the commissioners not to let them down.
"I really don't trust people like you guys," said Terry Ladue, the microphone shaking in his hand.
Ladue said his mother Jane Dick was beaten to death after he and his siblings were seized in the '60s Scoop, when indigenous children were taken and placed in non-indigenous homes. He said the effect was that he never learned how to love and spent 13 years "with a needle stuck up his arm."
Ladue said he doesn't trust the inquiry because all government has ever done is hurt him, take him away from his parents and throw his people in jail. He urged the commissioners to do more than just talk — they must take action to elevate indigenous people in Canadian society, he said.
"Dealing with this today, for me, is letting go of something that I haven't let go of for 52 years, and that's the anger I have towards the government officials and the anger I have towards the RCMP.
"I don't trust. You want my trust, you've got to earn my trust. If I see this fall apart, I'll never trust again."
Several listeners, including commissioner Qajaq Robinson, were crying by the end of Ladue's testimony.
Chief Commissioner Marion Buller has said it's crucial to the future of the inquiry that the Whitehorse hearings are successful. Other community meetings won't be held until the fall, and families from across the country have been critical of delays and poor communications.
Shaun LaDue, who uses a capital "D" in his last name unlike his brother, said he felt respected and heard after testifying about their mother. He also spoke about his experience as a transgender man.
"The hearings so far to me seem to be going very good. The commissioners are listening to us with their heart and their soul and they're very responsive to what the Yukon First Nations families have to say," he said in an interview.
"I have good hope — a big, strong hope — that when they go across Canada, people will see that they're working their hardest."
Joan Jack, a lawyer and sister-in-law of murder victim Barbara Jack, has criticized the quasi-judicial format of the inquiry. She told reporters earlier Thursday that the formal processes, including the swearing-in of witnesses, were making many participants uncomfortable.
But as her family rose to speak Thursday afternoon, they were not asked to swear to tell the truth. Instead, they were dressed in red Tlingit regalia, which means they were "standing in their truth," she said.
A lawyer approached her family in the morning to say that the commissioners understood her concerns, Jack said in an interview.
"I think the commission responded to my public criticisms that using the Canadian legal system and filling it with brown people isn't sufficient. We have to do it different," she said.
Inquiry spokeswoman Bernee Bolton said that under Yukon law, there is flexibility in how people are sworn in that reflects cultural diversity.
Jack said she still has concerns about the inquiry, including that the lead legal counsel is not aboriginal and that indigenous laws are not being integrated.
She expressed her doubts directly to the commissioners during her passionate testimony.
"I don't have a lot of faith that this process is going to produce anything," she said.
"That's why I said to my family, 'Why should we come?' I said, 'Because we'll heal ourselves. If anything, we can find reconciliation within our family.' "

Gating Mechanism¶
A GatingMechanism is a subclass of ModulatoryMechanism that is restricted to using only GatingSignals and not ControlSignals. Accordingly, its constructor has a gating_signals argument in place of a modulatory_signals argument. It also lacks any attributes related to control. In all other respects it is identical to its parent class, ModulatoryMechanism.
Creating A GatingMechanism¶
GatingMechanism can be created using the standard Python method of calling the constructor for the desired type. A GatingMechanism is also created automatically if gating is specified for an InputState, OutputState or Mechanism, in which case a GatingProjection is automatically created that projects from the GatingMechanism to the specified target
Specifying gating¶
GatingMechanism are used to modulate the value of an InputState or OutputState. An InputState or OutputState can be specified for gating by assigning it a GatingProjection or GatingSignal anywhere that the Projections to a State or its ModulatorySignals can be specified. A Mechanism can also be specified for gating, in which case the primary InputState of the specified Mechanism is used. States (and/or Mechanisms) can also be specified in the gating_signals argument of the constructor for a GatingMechanism. The gating_signals argument must be a list, each item of which must refer to one or more States (or the Mechanism(s) to which they belong) to be gated by that GatingSignal. The specification for each item in the list can use any of the forms used to specify a GatingSignal.
A GatingSignal is created for each item listed in the gating_signals argument of the constructor, and all of the
GatingSignals for a GatingMechanism are listed in its
gating_signals attribute.
Each GatingSignal is assigned one or more GatingProjections to the InputState(s) and/or
OutputState(s) it gates. By default, the
function of GatingMechanism generates a
value – its
gating_allocation – with a single item, that is
used by all of the GatingMechanism's GatingSignals. However, if a custom
function is
specified that generates a
gating_allocation with more than one item, different
GatingSignals can be assigned to the different items (see Function below).
Each GatingMechanism has a
modulation attribute, that provides a default for the way
in which its GatingSignals modulate the value of the States they gate
(see modulation for an explanation of how this attribute is specified and used to
modulate the value of a State). Each GatingSignal uses this value, unless its value is
individually specified.
By default, a GatingMechanism has a single InputState, the
value of which is used
as the input to the GatingMechanism's
A GatingMechanism's
function uses
value of its OUTCOME InputState) to generate a
gating_allocation. By default,
function is assigned
DefaultAllocationFunction, which takes a single value as its input, and assigns this as the value of
each item of
modulatory_allocation. Each of these items is assigned as
the allocation for the corresponding GatingSignal in
gating_signals. Thus,
by default, the GatingMechanism distributes its input as the allocation to each of its
gating_signals, and/or by specifying that individual GatingSignals reference different
items in
gating_allocation as their allocation (i.e., the value of their
A GatingMechanism has a GatingSignal for each InputState and/or OutputState specified in its
gating_signals attribute, to which it sends a GatingProjection. If the GatingMechanism's
function generates a
gating_allocation with a single value
(the default), then this is used as the
value of all of the GatingMechanism's
gating_signals. If the
gating_allocation has multiple items, and this
is the same as the number of GatingSignals, then each GatingSignal is assigned the value of the corresponding item in
gating_allocation. If there is a different number of
gating_signals than the number of items in the
then the
index attribute of each GatingSignal must be specified (e.g., in a specification
dictionary in the gating_signal argument of the GatingMechanism's constructor),
or an error is generated. The GatingSignals of a GatingMechanism are listed in its
gating_signals attribute. Since GatingSignals are a type of OutputState, they are also listed
in the GatingMechanism's
output_states attribute. The InputStates and/or OutputStates
modulated by a GatingMechanism's GatingSignals can be displayed using its
show method.
A GatingMechanism executes in the same way as a ProcessingMechanism, based on its place in the
graph. Because GatingProjections are likely to introduce cycles
(recurrent connection loops) in the graph, the effects of a GatingMechanism and its projections will generally not be
applied in the first
TRIAL (see initialization for a description of
how to configure the initialization of feedback loops in a System; also see Scheduler for a description of detailed
ways in which a GatingMechanism and its dependents can be scheduled to execute).
When executed, a GatingMechanism uses its input to determine the value of its
gating_allocation, each item of which is used by a corresponding GatingSignal to determine its
gating_signal and assign to its GatingProjections. In the
TRIAL, each GatingProjection's value is used by the State to which it projects to modulate the
value of that State (see modulation fon an explanation of how the value
of a State is modulated).
A State that receives a GatingProjection does not update its
value (and therefore does not
reflect the influence of its GatingSignal) until that State's owner Mechanism executes
Lazy Evaluation for an explanation of "lazy" updating).
Class Reference¶
GatingMechanism(default_gating_allocation=None, size=None, function=Linear(slope=1, intercept=0), gating_signals:tc.optional(list) = None, modulation=ModulationParam.MULTIPLICATIVE, params=None, name=None, prefs=None)¶
Subclass of AdaptiveMechanism that gates (modulates) the value(s) of one or more States.
- default_gating_allocation (value, list or ndarray : default
defaultGatingAllocation) – the default value for each of the GatingMechanism's GatingSignals; its length must equal the number of items specified in the gating_signals argument.
- size (int, list or 1d np.array of ints) –
specifies default_gating_allocation as an array of zeros if default_gating_allocation is not passed as an argument; if default_gating_allocation is specified, it takes precedence over the specification of size. As an example, the following mechanisms are equivalent:
T1 = TransferMechanism(size = [3, 2]) T2 = TransferMechanism(default_variable = [[0, 0, 0], [0, 0]])
- function (TransferFunction : default Linear(slope=1, intercept=0)) – specifies the function used to transform the GatingMechanism's
variableto a
- gating_signals (List[GatingSignal, InputState, OutputState, Mechanism, tuple[str, Mechanism], or dict]) – specifies the InputStates and/or
OutputStatesto be gated by the GatingMechanism; the number of items must equal the length of the default_gating_allocation argument; if a Mechanism is specified, its primary InputState is used (see `GatingMechanism_GatingSignals for details).
- modulation (ModulationParam : ModulationParam.MULTIPLICATIVE) – specifies the default form of modulation used by the GatingMechanism's GatingSignals, unless they are individually specified.
- params (Dict[param keyword: param value] : default None) – a parameter dictionary that can be used to specify the parameters for the Mechanism, parameters for its function, and/or a custom function and its parameters. Values specified for parameters in the dictionary override any assigned to those parameters in arguments of the constructor.
- name (str : default see
name) – specifies the name of the GatingMechanism.
- prefs (PreferenceSet or specification dict : default Mechanism.classPreferences) – specifies the
PreferenceSetfor the GatingMechanism; see
prefsfor details.
value, list or ndarray – used as the input to the GatingMechanism's
function. Its format is determined by the default_gating_allocation or size argument of the GatingMechanism's constructor (see above), and is the same format as its
gating_allocation(unless a custom
functionhas been assigned).
TransferFunction – determines the function used to transform the GatingMechanism's
variableto a
gating_allocation; the default is an identity function that simply assigns
variableas the
ContentAddressableList[GatingSignal] – list of
GatingSignalsfor the GatingMechanism, each of which sends GatingProjection(s) to the InputState(s) and/or OutputStates that it gates; same as GatingMechanism
List[GatingProjection] – list of all of the GatingProjections assigned to the GatingMechanism's GatingSignals (i.e., listed in its
scalar or 1d np.array of ints – the result of the GatingMechanism's
function; each item is the value assigned to the corresponding GatingSignal listed in
gating_signals, and used by each GatingSignal to generate the
gating_signalassigned to its GatingProjections; same as the GatingMechanism's
gating_allocationattribute. Default is a single item used by all of the
scalar or 1d np.array of ints – the result of the GatingMechanism's
function; each item is the value assigned to the corresponding GatingSignal listed in
gating_signals, and used by each GatingSignal to generate the
gating_signalassigned to its GatingProjections; same as the GatingMechanism's
valueattribute. Default is a single item used by all of the
- modulation : ModulationParam
- the default form of modulation used by the GatingMechanism's GatingSignals, unless they are individually specified.
- name : str
- the name of the GatingMechanism; if it is not specified in the name argument of the constructor, a default is assigned by MechanismRegistry (see Naming for conventions used for default and duplicate names).
- prefs : PreferenceSet or specification dict
- the
PreferenceSetfor the GatingMechanism; if it is not specified in the prefs argument of the constructor, a default is assigned using
classPreferencesdefined in __init__.py (see PreferenceSet for details).

Hello !
My name is Alexandre,
I come from France and moved to the Netherlands in August 2015. I studied photography two years in Paris but decided that studying it in Amsterdam would be better. I am actually half Dutch but my skills in the language are very low, however you can help me out by practicing with me
I only came to Prik once before but liked the friendliness of everyone immediately. Later on, I decided to ask if they were hiring, a few days passed and I started working! I'm very new at bartending, therefore I might be a little slow. But this is mostly because I want to make your drink the best one you've ever had !
I love fast food and like anything Art related! I also like to discover and learn about facts and new things. I love a great conversation, don't hesitate to speak with me

Does simulation add value to clinical practice? Undergraduate student nurses' perspectives
Permanent Linkhttp://hdl.handle.net/10092/15339
Aim: To evaluate if simulation adds value in preparing student nurses for clinical practice. Background: Over a period of four years, simulation has been increasingly integrated into the bachelor of nursing (BN) curriculum in a New Zealand school of nursing. The nursing lecturers teaching in the programme decided to conduct a small research project to establish if the use of simulation in nursing education adds value to the clinical experience for students. Method: A qualitative, descriptive approach was chosen as the methodology. A voluntary purposeful sample of nursing students enrolled across the BN programme were invited to participate in a focus group interview. The participant group comprised 10 nursing students from semester two, first year, through to final semester, year three. Findings: Analysis of the data indicates simulation does add value in preparing students for clinical practice and the findings are categorised under the following themes: Experience and feelings of participating in simulation; preparation for simulation; learning objectives/outcomes; value for clinical practice; and how simulation could be improved to better prepare students for clinical practice. Conclusion: Participating in simulation builds confidence, knowledge and skills and appears to add value in preparing students for clinical practice.

We didn't complain, as Jay mentions in this video. I emailed Jay and asked if Lemons would be doing anything about the fact that a once competitive class B car can now hardly finish mid-pack of class B. I also asked if minimum pit-stop amount requirement could be a good idea. Speedcreep, as someone called it, is obviously real.
Jay said to get a better car. Fine. Whatever.
