ExpEYES-Blocks
==============

``eyeblocks`` is a module to make easier for end users to develop
small apllication with ExpEYES measurement boxes.

	:members:

Working space for blocks
------------------------
The blocks, also named components, can be dragged and dropped in
this working space. Dragging blocks from the working space to the list
allows one to erase a block.

Some blocks can be connected to other ones, in order to build
chains to manage signals and display them properly.

.. automodule:: eyeBlocks.blockwidget
	:members:

The left-side list for components
---------------------------------
This list can be considered as a store for components. Drag them to
the working area to create them, drag them back to the list to erase
them.

.. automodule:: eyeBlocks.componentslist
	:members:

Base class for components of blocks
-----------------------------------
This class cannot be used directly, it is an absctract class,
providing features by the means of inheritance.

.. automodule:: eyeBlocks.component

	:members:

Time base of the oscilloscope
-----------------------------
This component permits to specify a time base for the oscilloscope,
one can choose a dealy and a number of samples, hence the duration of
measurements.

.. automodule:: eyeBlocks.timecomponent
	:members:

Editing properties of an Input Block
------------------------------------
Input blocks can be any input of ExpEYES, like A1, A2, and so on.
They can be also a time base, which is a particular case. For voltage
inputs, features like the voltage range may be modified; for the time
base, more parameters can be tuned.

.. automodule:: eyeBlocks.inputdialog
	:members:

A block to modify signals
-------------------------
This block is meant to modify signals by some formula, or
to extract some particular feature of the signal to provide
side-effects, like synchronizing the time base.

.. automodule:: eyeBlocks.modifcomponent
	:members:

Components featuring a channel of the scope
--------------------------------------------
There are several channels for the scope:
* channel 1
* channel 2
* channel 3
* channel 4
* abscissa

Usually the channel "abscissa" is used for the time base, but other
signals connected to it can build Lissajous figures.

.. automodule:: eyeBlocks.channelcomponent
	:members:

Compiling the blocks construction into something useful
-------------------------------------------------------
When blocks are assembled in the working area, it may be time
to build an application's prototype. When blocks are not assembled
in a meaningful way, warnings should be emitted.

There once was a time that if a friendly-looking furry would friend me I'd automatically friend them back. These days I'm a lot more particular. Even so, it's not uncommon that I think to myself there's altogether too many people on my friends list. This sounds like I'm leading up to a purge and I admit it's on my mind. I've always been dissuaded in the past by my fear of stirring up drama among those who take defriending personally and I'm not saying that that won't be the case this time.
If I do defriend anyone, I want them to understand that it's not because I hate them. Far from it. More likely I'm not getting anything from their LiveJournals and, judging from the lack of response to my own posts, they're not getting much from mine. It will just make it easier for me to keep up with those who are left. Of course, anyone's welcome to follow my LJ. Most of my posts are unlocked anyway so likely you won't miss out on much.


anybody else had the flu for the last three weeks?
year, so decided to have the jab this time round.
Did you have the vaccine?
I've only had real flu once, when I was a child.
Last 2 winters, I got vaccinated.
bed to go to the loo?
with it a day earlier!
Anyone had flu this year after having the flue jab?
I did just before xmas, a sore throat for a few hours, then a bad cold for 4-5 days, then a cough and a bit of sneezing for the following 3 weeks annoying but I was still able to do most things without a probem.
Quite a few friends had it too but effected them differnty but all said they had something for about 1 month or so.
I boldley flew where I had flu'd before is how I saw it.
that's just recovery time not flu.
quite get a handle on.
sporadically for over 2 weeks. A cold as far as I am concerned.
I have had a slight sniffle for the past three weeks, does that count?
Just a little 'bunged up', a lot of sneezing, nothing else.
Benefit of flu jabs I guess.
quite a few people who had the same symptoms.
I'll vouch for the severity of real flu. I was in bed with it when my young stepdaughter told me that a pikey was stealing a large radiator that I removed for a re-plastering job and left propped against the side wall of our house (not in full view). All I could do was tell her: get his reg number.
I'd normally be well up for some argy-bargy with a scoundrel like that. I just could not rise from bed.

A chrome extension written in Elm to add some statistics and sorting to tracks that are played in plug.dj. Admittedly, it was also an excuse for me to try out Elm.
Something about Elm's tagline really caught my eye and I just had to try it out.
Model, which contains the state of your application. It consists of all of your variables for each component. They can also be used in a similar fashion to 2-way binding, which is really just a change in state.
Update, which defines how your state will be updated. You can use these as event handlers or other methods that will change the state of your component.
View, which is reminiscent of Reactjs and others in that Elm acts as a DSL for generating HTML elements and binding attributes, events, and values to them.
The only problem with Elm, is that it's super terse and haskell-like. It makes starting with Elm unusually difficult.

New American Standard Bible: 1995 Update
Be Imitators of God
1	aTherefore be imitators of God, as beloved children;
2	and awalk in love, just as Christ also bloved 1you and cgave Himself up for us, an doffering and a sacrifice to God 2as a efragrant aroma.
3	But aimmorality 1or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among 2saints;
4	and there must be no afilthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which bare not fitting, but rather cgiving of thanks.
5	For this you know with certainty, that ano 1immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom bof Christ and God.
6	aLet no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things bthe wrath of God comes upon cthe sons of disobedience.
7	Therefore do not be apartakers with them;
8	for ayou were formerly bdarkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as cchildren of Light
9	(for athe fruit of the Light consists in all bgoodness and righteousness and truth),
10	1atrying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.
11	aDo not participate in the unfruitful bdeeds of cdarkness, but instead even 1dexpose them;
12	for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
13	But all things become visible awhen they are 1exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.
14	For this reason 1it says,
"aAwake, sleeper,
And arise from bthe dead,
And Christ cwill shine on you."
15	Therefore 1be careful how you awalk, not bas unwise men but as wise,
16	1amaking the most of your time, because bthe days are evil.
17	So then do not be foolish, but aunderstand what the will of the Lord is.
18	And ado not get drunk with wine, 1for that is bdissipation, but be cfilled with the Spirit,
19	aspeaking to 1one another in bpsalms and chymns and spiritual dsongs, esinging and making melody with your heart to the Lord;
20	aalways giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to 1bGod, even the Father;
21	1aand be subject to one another in the 2bfear of Christ.
Marriage Like Christ and the Church
22	aWives, bbe subject to your own husbands, cas to the Lord.
23	For athe husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the bhead of the church, He Himself cbeing the Savior of the body.
24	But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.
25	aHusbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and bgave Himself up for her,
26	aso that He might sanctify her, having bcleansed her by the cwashing of water with dthe word,
27	that He might apresent to Himself the church 1in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be bholy and blameless.
28	So husbands ought also to alove their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself;
29	for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church,
30	because we are amembers of His bbody.
31	aFor this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.
32	This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church.
33	Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to alove his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she 1brespects her husband.

Members of Staind, Extreme, Shinedown Perform Separate Acoustic Tributes to Scott Weiland
Joe DiVita
Joe DiVita Published: December 10, 2015
It's been one week since the passing of former Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver singer Scott Weiland. The adage of "the music will live on forever" continues to ring true as more and more musicians perform covers of some of Weiland's best-known songs.
The performances posted here include Aaron Lewis of Staind and Extreme's Nuno Bettencourt each performing the Stone Temple Pilots classic "Creep," plus Brent Smith and Zach Myers of Shinedown covering "Big Empty." All three renditions are performed acoustically and are an emotional tribute to the late singer. Lewis performed the song one day after Weiland's death in Indianapolis, Ind., while on his acoustic tour. Opting for an a capella beginning, Bettencourt gets to the second verse before slinging his acoustic back around and finishing the song mirroring the original a little more closely.
The Shinedown frontman and guitarist are currently on an acoustic tour together, promoting their 2014 EP Acoustic Sessions, which came out under the name Smith & Myers. The stripped down version works well as the song is rather moody and Smith's low croon lends itself well to a cross between the original and acoustic cover.
Weiland was found dead on his tour bus late Dec. 3 while on tour with his solo act, Scott Weiland and the Wildabouts. Since his death, police have searched his tour bus and found a mix of substances and pills including cocaine, Xanax, synthetic opiates, sleeping pills, Viagra and medication used to treat Weiland's bipolar and schizophrenic diseases in the singer's bedroom. Cocaine was also found in bassist Tommy Black's room. He was brought into custody under possession charges and has since been released as police continue their investigation.

Q: Error code: 16722 - Nested lock error in MongoDB MapReduce I am using MongoDB-2.6.1.
I tried db.coll.mapreduce() storing in system.js and accessing via db.eval().
I faced the problem of nested lock (only for 100 documents) when running using db.eval(). But direct running of mapreduce() worked fine.

Snapshot of error message (nested lock).
Is it not possible for storing db.coll.mapreduce() in system.js and accessing via db.eval() ??
If not, what is the alternative way to this.
Could any one please help me out....

Being able to chew and speak comfortably and effectively is important, so, if your dentures or partial dentures aren't working, you have a problem.
They don't last forever. Dentures need to be relined every two years, and after five to seven years, you'll need a new set.
When you have dentures, your biting and chewing force is reduced by 80%.
The fact that dentures are removable can cause problems as well. Dentures are held in place by suction. If they slip or move in your mouth they will often be less comfortable and work less effectively.
Ill-fitting dentures can also contribute to an aged look and cause you to alter your food choices.
While dentures can be an effective treatment when you are missing teeth, they are often only an alternative, not a replacement.
If this is the case for you, you may want to consider a denture or partial denture that is rooted in place with dental implants.
A dental implant consists of a titanium fixture that's surgically implanted into your jawbone. This effectively mimics the function of a tooth root and helps to keep your dentures more firmly in place. Once healed, the implant is capped with a dental crown or similar dental restoration to help it look and function like a natural tooth.
A dental exam will allow Chestermere dentist Dr Lowry to investigate the issues that could be causing your dentures to not work as well as they could or should.
After the exam, Dr Lowry will be able to discuss treatment options to improve the situation and help you regain a more comfortable fit.

Oppressor gets encouraged only when the oppressed accepts cruelty: Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri
PAT leader Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri has said that when the oppressed accepts oppression, and falls prey to expediency, greed and fear, it allows oppressors to become even more audacious and fearless. He said that the families of the martyrs of Model Town have chronicled a new chapter of perseverance, and courage by standing their ground against the might of the powerful people. He said that these sacrifices that were rendered against the oppressive system will not go in vain. He said that the publication of Justice Najafi Commission represents a significant development towards the goal of justice in the Model Town case, adding that the report is the outcome of the family members of the martyrs being steadfast and determined. He said that together with the courageous families, we will make sure that the perpetrators of the massacre of innocent people are taken to their logical end.
Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri stated these views in his meeting with the family members of martyrs, those injured and arrested in the police operations at the central secretariat yesterday.
Speaking on the occasion, the family members of the martyrs said that every tactic in the playbook was used to browbeat them into silence and submission. Lucrative offers of money and settling them abroad were made. The police officers and other local influential were sent to their residences to win them over but they said no to all offers. They said that the movement and the leader they are associated with is matchless. They said that they are proud of their leader Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri and his struggle. He said that it was due to blessings of the association that they were able to reject all offers and stand up to the oppressive system. They said that complete justice is yet to be done.
Senior PAT leaders Khurram Nawaz Gandapur, Rafique Najam, Syed Amjad Ali Shah, Hafiz Ghulam Farid, Ishtiaq Hanif Mughal, Naeem-ud-Din Chaudhry Advocate, and Tayyab Zia were also present on the occasion.
The family members of the martyrs said that Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri looked after them like a father. He said that they are ready to offer their own lives for the noble cause of peaceful change and revolution.
Dr Tahir-ul-Qadri gave away medals to the captives who suffered the rigours of imprisonment over their steadfastness and showed love and affection to the children of the martyrs. After the meeting, the PAT leader went to the Martyrs' Memorial along with the family members of the martyrs and laid the floral wreath there. He also made Dua for the departed souls.

Home Resources Stairlift, home elevator or platform lift?
How do you know which is the best option for you?
If stairs have started to become a problem for you or a loved one, you may be looking for a solution. However, you've realized there are lots of different options to consider – so, which one do you choose?
We're here to help. Although any of the three options would help you or your loved one get your freedom of movement back, they have different uses, and can be used in different situations. The mobility of the user, space constraints and price are all key factors to consider, so in this article, we'll talk about the main features of each one, as well as anything you might have to bear in mind if you decide to opt for one over the other.
A stairlift is a lift that takes a person up and down the stairs while sitting on a chair. It's pretty straightforward really – it does what it says on the tin – carries you up the stairs comfortably and safely. One of the main perks of a stairlift is that it is the most cost-effective way of giving you freedom of movement in your home. As no building work has to be done to install one, and they can be installed on practically any staircase, they're a good solution for anyone who simply wants to get up their stairs, without having to make any significant alterations to their home.
The look of a stairlift – is the stairlift designed to match your home décor?
How it is controlled – is the hand control ergonomic?
Safety features – how easy is the seatbelt to do up? What happens if there's something in the way of your stairlift?
there are lots of things to consider before you choose the right stairlift for you. Do some research online and read customer reviews – see what other people are saying about each company to make sure you choose one you can trust.
Who can use a stairlift?
Like we said above, pretty much anyone. If you can hold yourself upright in a chair, you can use a stairlift (you need to be sure you're securely in the chair all the way to the other end).
ou can even use a stairlift if you find it difficult to bend your knees and hips, as we have several different chairs in our range, each one built to meet different needs. The Sadler is the perfect blend between a perch seat and a chair, and if you find it difficult or painful to sit back into a chair, and get back up again, it's exactly what you need to carry you up the stairs. The seat of the Sadler tilts back, supporting your weight as you sit back into it, taking the pressure off your knees, as you glide up the stairs in near-standing position. Then, when you reach the other end of your stairs, it tilts back up, gently helping you out of the chair.
You can even use a stairlift if you use a wheelchair, but if you want to use your stairlift independently, you need to be able to get in and out of your wheelchair, and in and out of your stairlift, by yourself. A stairlift also can't carry a wheelchair, so you may need to have another one waiting for you at the other end of the stairs. As long as you can hold yourself upright in the chair, the standard safety features of each one of our stairlifts – from our ergonomic seatbelt to a footrest fold button – make sure our stairlifts are safe and easy to use.
Where can I have a stairlift installed?
A stairlift is installed on your stairs. They can be installed on the vast majority of staircases, whether they're long or short, wide or narrow, indoors or outdoors, straight or curved. Stairlifts are fitted onto your stairs (whatever they're made of), not your walls. That means that installing a stairlift doesn't require any building work, and installations are quick (take less than a day) and clean.
As long as you have a power outlet near your stairs, a stairlift can be installed easily – and can even be fitted to carry you up multiple staircases, and multiple floors.
A home elevator could be the solution you immediately jump to when you think of making your home more accessible. After all, home elevators tend to increase property value, and are often seen as a smart investment – especially if you have reduced mobility and are finding it difficult to get around in your home.
Where you'll install it – do you have room to build an elevator shaft and pit? Could you get a home elevator that doesn't need a shaft or pit? Do you have the space even a small elevator would require?
How much it'll cost. Home elevators tend to be more expansive than stairlifts, and as well as the elevator itself, you need to consider the building work that must be done to accommodate the elevator.
How long it will take to draw up the plans and actually install your home lift. Can you wait that long?
Who can use a home elevator?
Go up more than two floors?
Carry more than one person?
All of these variables could alter the price and type of elevator you're looking for.
Where you'll place your home elevator to get the best use from it.
Where the drive unit will be placed – will you be able to hear it when the elevator is being used?
Home elevators often need yearly maintenance to make sure they're working as well as they can be.
Where can I have a home elevator installed?
Unlike when you buy a stairlift, when you buy a home lift you're not limited by where you can put it. Depending on what your home is like, you can maximize the use of your home lift by putting it exactly where you want it. You will probably need to get help from professionals in order to work out what's best / doable in your home, but buying a home lift gives you a lot of possibilities and choice in the matter.
A platform lift is a platform that moves along a rail that's attached to your stairs, giving you access to your whole home. The platform can transport a person in a wheelchair, a person who is standing up or a person seated on a flip-down seat. It's the ideal solution for transporting people and / or cargo up and down stairs.
A platform can be fitted for access up one or several flights of stairs, so could be the ideal solution for you to reach your whole house.
Who can use a platform lift?
Anyone can use a platform lift thanks to its convenient flip-down seat. Whether you use a wheelchair or not, a platform lift can carry you smoothly up your stairs. An added benefit of a platform lift is its capacity to carry heavy cargo, meaning you have an easy solution to carry heavy goods up and down your stairs, without putting yourself in danger.
Where can I have a platform lift installed?
Like a stairlift, a platform lift must be installed on steps. The good news is that whatever your steps are like – whether they're long or short, indoors or outdoors, straight or curved, and whatever they're made of, a platform lift can be installed on them. However, due to the size of a platform lift when it is unfolded for use, it can't be installed on very narrow staircases, as it needs space to be able to travel all the way up. However, when it's not in use, a platform lift folds up neatly, leaving plenty of room on the steps for anyone who wants to use them.
All you need, is to have a power outlet by your staircase for a platform lift to be fitted, to get you moving on your stairs.
Can you choose where it's installed? You can choose the side of the stairs you want to install it on, but that's about it. Yes (depending on the constraints of your house) You can choose the side of the stairs you want to install it on, but that's about it.
How economical is it to run? Very. In fact, it's even cheaper than your coffee machine. Pretty economical, although it really depends on the lift you opt for. Very. In fact, it's even cheaper than your coffee machine.

I stumbled across Fitocracy during a Google search for online fitness trackers and my inner geek was instantly hooked by the "Level Up, Be More Awesome" gaming approach. Over the past two and a half years Fito and its' community of knowledgeable and experienced athletes has given me the insight to completely revamp my entire approach to fitness. After countless years of torturing myself with hour upon hour of cardio classes and 1200 calorie meal plans in a relentless battle to reclaim my size 0 jeans, I discovered Powerlifting and the beauty of strength. I now take classes when I want to, just for the fun of it, eat twice as many calories and rejoice that my glutes refuse to fit into a size 10.
In September, I will begin my next strength cycle to prepare for my next competition (January 2017) which will hopefully qualify me to compete at the APA-WPA National competition late in 2017. After Nationals, I will switch focus and train my daughter to compete in her first competition in 2018. I will still train but it will be her time to shine.
Nutrition is key to everything in life. It dictates your health, how you feel, how well you can train. It's taken quite a bit of trial and error to learn what macro splits and food combinations work best for me during all cycles of training (especially in a bulk. WHY can't I live on gelato???). I'd like to invest some time in the future in obtaining a Nutritional Certification to help women raise their metabolic floor with reverse dieting.
Funny enough, my biggest weakness currently is my cardiovascular endurance (after all those years of cardio. :/) I'm not sure I excel anywhere just yet, I'm only 2 years into serious training and still have much to learn.
Being able to add more weight to the bar of course. ;) Seriously though, I've noticed the past year or so that the stronger I grow physically in the gym, the stronger I become emotionally and mentally. There isn't a damn thing that I can't accomplish for myself. This newfound inner strength is just as, if not more so, important as the physical strength. Too many generations of women have been raised to be weak; physically, mentally, emotionally, never being taught to stand independent and strong. Strength training motivates me to pass this gift to other women. There is nothing I love more than the look on their face when they realize just how strong they are. Whether it's flipping a monster tire that they never considered even touching or pulling a heavy deadlift off the floor, when their eyes light up and they realize what they can do, it just makes me want to get stronger. So I can help them get stronger.
Love yourself. You will stumble, don't let it stop you. Find a fitness journey that you will love. Love is what will get you going, it will keep you motivated until you have developed your dedication. If you Hate the treadmill, hours of running on it is not going to be a sustainable solution. Likewise, if you Hate the weight room, powerlifting is most likely not where you want to start. Fuel your body. If someone tries to put you on a 1200 calorie diet, punch them in the face and walk away. Seriously. Punch them in the face.
As the Hulk says "That's my secret Cap, I'm always angry". There is a deep turbulent river of anger that runs in the deepest recesses of my veins; powerlifting has finally given it the outlet that it needs.
Fitocracy has changed my life. It's helped me discover the athlete I've always wanted to be and is helping me help others find their path on their journeys. The community here is unlike any other social media community that I've seen. I've met some of the most incredible people here all trying to be their best and inspire others to be their best.
