Real Madrid winger Lucas Vazquez suffers broken big toe
by FSA EditorReal Madrid will be without Lucas Vazquez when LaLiga resumes after the international break.
Lucas Vazquez has suffered a fractured big toe in his left foot, Real Madrid have confirmed.
Vazquez sustained the injury when he dropped a weight during a gym session, according to reports in Spain.
Madrid, who host Real Sociedad on Saturday, have not specified a timeframe for his recovery.
The 28-year-old missed matches against Mallorca and Galatasaray in October due to a calf problem.
“Following the tests carried out today on our player Lucas Vazquez by the Real Madrid medical department, he has been diagnosed with a fracture to the distal phalanx in his left hallux,” read a club statement.
“His recovery will continue to be assessed.”
Vazquez has made seven LaLiga appearances this season, starting four times and scoring once.
Madrid are level on points with Barcelona but trail the leaders on goal difference.

I seem to have hit a dead end trying to send some BMP085 pressure data to emonCMS
The Adafruit unified driver outputs temp and pressure data with 2 decimal points so I am likely to get at least 6 digits of info for pressure unless I clip these.
Using the emonTH sketch as a start I can:
1. Send the factory test sequence of info for both variables. Even if I use int32_t or long for pressure though I seem to run out of range and the numbers wrap around (yes, not a coder by training!)
2. Get the readings updating every 30 secs
3. Confirm the correct payload variables make it into the transmit function with a simple serial.print
But then nothing - I can see quite a few examples using the Jeelib BMP library but did not want to jump ship from Adafruit as I suspect the ongoing support is going to be better simply because of the extra number of bodies they have. I am also struggling a bit on the Jeelib BMP code as a lots of examples seem to remap the SDL/SCL pins.
I have also tried a couple of versions of the RF12 transmit code - no difference on either version.
Any thoughts on where I am going wrong would be gratefully accepted - some code extracts below and full version attached.
Many thanks

EDIT - the Adafruit unified driver is up and running. I have attached my updated sketch if anyone is interested. In case you are wondering what some of debris is I am slowly working at converting a sketch which grabs WH1080 Fine Offset / Maplin N96GY data and send it to the serial port to retransmit this into emonCMS. Many thanks to Mark and Andrew at HAH for doing the hard work. http://www.homeautomationhub.com/content/wh1080-weather-station-integration?page=1
Next steps: testing swapping the RFM12B from OOK to normal to transmit and then shoehorning in the WH1080 code.
Many thanks

Re: Sending BMP085 data to emonCMS using Adafruit library - solved
Second rule of house sensors....
If you are thinking about doing it Nathan Chantrell has probably already done it and posted the code :-)
http://nathan.chantrell.net/tinytx-wireless-sensor/
It does use the jeelib library but as it works it might be easier to see where the differences in approach are.
Re: Sending BMP085 data to emonCMS using Adafruit library - solved
Thanks for the quick reply, I had a look there last night and grabbed Nathan's transmit code as a check
Unfortunately Nathan is using the Jeelib BMP library and its Ports trickery - the Jeelib wiki is a little vague on the Ports I2C calls. If the Jeelib PortsBMP code defaults to A4 SDA and A5 SCL or has this as an option I should be OK but I just could not see any documenting of this at Jeelabs
https://github.com/nathanchantrell/TinyTX/blob/master/TinyTX_BMP085/Tiny...
Re: Sending BMP085 data to emonCMS using Adafruit library - solved
I might be making some progress thanks to a speedy reply to a query from JCW at Jeelabs.
It looks like there is an undocumented "0" option for the Jeelibs PortsBMP library, so using JCW's example
https://github.com/jcw/jeelib/tree/master/examples/Ports/bmp085demo
this would be:
#include <PortsBMP085.h>
PortI2C two (0); // Uses standard Uno A4 and A5
BMP085 psensor (two, 3); // ultra high resolution
There is though some different syntax floating around which I have asked JCW for some help on (this is from one of Nathan Chantrell's sketches)
#include <PortsBMP085.h> // Part of JeeLib
PortI2C i2c (2); // BMP085 SDA to D8 and SCL to D7
BMP085 psensor (i2c, 3); // ultra high resolution

Re: Sending BMP085 data to emonCMS using Adafruit library - solved
I now seem to be able to get the Adafruit library working but I am experiencing some very odd behaviour. Doing a serial print of the "struct " fields I get exactly what I expect to be see - each value in the correct order. When it gets to emonCMS though it is going haywire:
* I seem to get 6 inputs
* Struct fields 1 and 2 are ok but: 3 is zero this seesm to be sent to input 4; struct number 4 is sent to input 6; and input 5 is zero.
I am currently running emonCMS v6 off a SD card and had been planning to try and move over to v7, however, it looks like the image might need some tweaking. I had a go at updating from v6 to v7 but that was a fail.
These are the key bits of my code - any ideas if it is an Arduino or emonCMS issue?
typedef struct {
int vcc;
int32_t temp_internal;
int32_t pressure;
int test_3;
} Payload;
Payload rfdata;
from loop
#if defined BMPFITTED
if (bmpTest == 1)
{
sensors_event_t event;
bmp.getEvent(&event);
Serial.println();
Serial.println("----BMP readings---");
float temperature;
bmp.getTemperature(&temperature);
rfdata.pressure=(event.pressure*10); // Remember to divide by 10 later
rfdata.temp_internal=(temperature*100); // Remember to divide by 100 later
}
#endif
rfdata.vcc=readVccRef();
rfdata.test_3=(readVccRef()*2);
#if defined DEBUGMAX
delay(10);
Serial.println("Sending the data ...");
#endif
rf12_sleep(RF12_WAKEUP);
delay(10);
rf12_sendNow(0, &rfdata, sizeof rfdata);
rf12_sendWait(2);
rf12_sleep(RF12_SLEEP);
Many thanks

Re: Sending BMP085 data to emonCMS using Adafruit library - solved
EmonCMS expects 16-bit signed integers. Those 32 bit integers are your problem, they span two 16-bit integers. You could try combining inputs 2&3 to recover temp_internal, and 4&5 to recover pressure, but by far the best way would be to scale them at source and send a 16-bit signed value.
Re: Sending BMP085 data to emonCMS using Adafruit library - solved
Thank you - it is now up and running - the 32 bit integers were leftovers from trying to use the Jeelabs BMP library which goes to 2 decimal places for pressure

Ghana is a country in West-Africa previously known as the gold coast. The Akan people inhabit present day Ghana and parts of Ivory Coast. Akan culture can also be found in the Americas because of the slave trade in the colonial period.
Akan names are derived from Ghanian culture, where children are given their first name as ‘day name’ corresponding to the day of the week they were born. This app will calculate the day you were born and allow you to know your Akan name, irregardless of whether you are Akan or not. Enjoy and be sure to try as many dates as possible.

MyUniPal is a companion app for students that provides 'tools' that are useful for students. The application was developed in xcode and written in Apples new Swift. Utilising the newly developed HotDeals REST API developed by ukhotdeals.com to provide users with the latest and best deals from the whole of the uk. The finance manager was designed to be smart and informative but to be non intrusive, allowing you full control to go over budget and if so then recalculating your daily, weekly, and mothly allowance.
The application was developed for the purpose of assessment for a university module and as such the requirements of the project were different to a usual client. The project development time was also quite short, 6 weeks to be exact. As a result the application was not released to the app store and is current stored away in my project stash.
This project was for my final project during my degree at Coventry University and concerns developing a natural language processing application based on a sentiment analysis model, using the NL tool kit (NLTK). The purpose of this project was to investigate the modeling of a sentiment analysis system that can accurately predict the polarity of text written reviews, learning from existing consumer reviews paired with a star rating. Then use this system to predict the polarity of new unseen reviews and determine the accuracy and error rate. This was performed by investigating aspects of the model and then determine how the particular aspect affected the accuracy of the overall model, using this information to build the 'perfect' model with highest possible accuracy.
The application was written in python and uses the machine learning classifier Naive bayes to train and then classify the data. This project was successful and I achieved a 90% accuracy when predicting a yelp reviews positivity. The report is available here

Demonstrator dies in protests against Guinea president
by Saliou SambCONAKRY (Reuters) - A young demonstrator was killed in Guinea on Thursday during protests against President Alpha Conde’s perceived attempt to extend his mandate, the security minister told Reuters.
At least fourteen people have now died since demonstrations erupted in the West African country last month against changes to the constitution that many fear could allow Conde to seek a third term.
Rights groups and political opponents have denounced a heavy-handed crackdown by the police including opening fire on protesters, claims that Reuters has been unable to independently verify and that security forces deny.
Thousands took to the streets of the capital Conakry on Thursday. Images caught on camera showed a bus in flames and protesters clashing with police, who broke up the demonstrations with tear gas.
The circumstances of the death was not immediately clear. Security minister Damantang Albert Camara said an investigation was underway.
The 81-year-old Conde, whose second and final five-year term expires next year, has refused to rule out running again and asked his government last month to look into drafting a new constitution.
His opponents fear that could be used as a reset button on his presidency, allowing him to run again like other African leaders who have amended or changed constitutions in recent years to stay in power.

Django Categories v1.0.1 documentation
The Category model automatically gets reverse relationships with all other models related to it.
This allows you access to the related objects from the template without altering any views. For example, if you only had Entry models related to Category, your categories/category_detail.html template could look like
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 | {% extends 'categories/base.html' %}
{% block content %}

{{ category }}

{% if category.parent %}

Go up to

{{ category.parent }}

{% endif %}
{% if category.description %}
{{ category.description }}
{% endif %}
{% if category.children.count %}

Subcategories

{% for child in category.children.all %}

{{ child }}

{% endfor %}

{% endif %}

Entries

{% if category.entries_set.all %}
{% for entry in category.entries_set.all %}

{{ entry.headline }}

{% endfor %}
{% else %}

No entries for {{ category }}

{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
|
If you have related_name parameters to the configuration (see Registering Models), then you would use category.related_name.all instead of category.relatedmodel_set.all.
To use the template tags:
{% import category_tags %}
Given a list of categories, iterates over the list, generating two-tuples of the current tree item and a dict containing information about the tree structure around the item, with the following keys:
- 'new_level'
- True if the current item is the start of a new level in the tree, False otherwise.
- 'closed_levels'
- A list of levels which end after the current item. This will be an empty list if the next item’s level is the same as or greater than the level of the current item.
An optional argument can be provided to specify extra details about the structure which should appear in the dict. This should be a comma-separated list of feature names. The valid feature names are:
- ancestors
Adds a list of unicode representations of the ancestors of the current node, in descending order (root node first, immediate parent last), under the key 'ancestors'.
For example: given the sample tree below, the contents of the list which would be available under the 'ancestors' key are given on the right:
Books -> [] Sci-fi -> [u'Books'] Dystopian Futures -> [u'Books', u'Sci-fi']

Purpose
The FHIR USLab Order Implementation focuses on identifying the requirements, specifications and
standards, and on providing the implementation guidance for electronic ordering of laboratory tests in
the US Realm using the FHIR in the RESTful framework. The scope of the Laboratory Orders Interface Use Case includes requirements to enable a
particular implementation of Electronic Health Record System (EHR-S) to use standardized structured
data in a defined inter-organizational laboratory transaction. The Use Case requirements are directed at
laboratory test orders between an Ambulatory Provider's EHR-S and a Laboratory's Laboratory
Information System (LIS). Future versions of this implementation may harmonize with existing guides to extend
interoperability of laboratory results across care settings, e.g., acute care.
Audience
This guide is designed for use by analysts and developers who require guidance on FHIR resources, elements and specific extensions
relative to the Laboratory Results Interface (LRI) initiative and HL7 Lab Order Conceptual Specification. Users of this guide must be familiar with the details of the FHIR Specification and resource
processing. This guide is not intended to be a tutorial on that subject.
Conventions
This guide adheres to the following conventions:
- The guide is constructed assuming the implementer has access to the FHIR Specification. Although some information from the standard is included in this implementation guide, much information from the standard has not been repeated here.
- The guide is constructed assuming the implementer SHALL conform to the FHIR RESTful API
- The rules defined in the FHIR Conformance Profile were used to document the use case for, and constraints applied to, the resources described in this guide.
Use Case - Ambulatory Care Setting
This use case was developed as a collaborative effort between the HHS/ONC Standards and
Interoperability Framework Laboratory Orders Initiative, the California Health Care Foundation, and the
HL7 Orders and Observations Work Group.
This guide defines the following terms from the historic paper-based workflows in relation to the
supported use cases for electronic exchange of laboratory order information to the OML message
structure as:
Definitions
- Measurement - a single observation value or calculation recorded using a single Observation Resource. Note that multiple representations of the same measurement may require multiple observations, e.g., quantitative and qualitative statement of the same measurement.
- Orderable Test or Laboratory Order - a DiagnosticOrder Resource item requesting
one or more measurements (Observation Resources).
- Requisition - One or more Orderable Test(s) transmitted as a new or appended DiagnosticOrder Resource.
Scope
EHR-S and a LIS in an ambulatory care setting. This includes new, scheduled, add-on laboratory orders
and the cancellation of laboratory orders that were previously placed.
This Use Case has four scenarios:
- Scenario 1: Electronic Ordering of New or Scheduled Laboratory Test(s)
- Scenario 2: Electronic Ordering of Add-On Laboratory Test(s)
- Scenario 3: Requesting the Cancellation of a Previously Placed Laboratory Order by the Order
Placer
- Scenario 4: Laboratory Cancellation of a Previously Placed Laboratory Order
In Scope
- Electronic ordering of laboratory tests and/or panels in the ambulatory setting for the US Realm.
- Defining the core data elements required for ordering ambulatory laboratory tests and/or panels.
- Laboratory Order Placer (i.e., Ordering Provider) may designate other non-order placers to receive results.
- Harmonization of data elements that are used in both laboratory orders and results.
Out of Scope
- Requesting Status on a Previously Placed Laboratory Order Electronic ordering of laboratory tests and/or panels in an acute care setting, internally within a laboratory, referral orders placed between laboratories, and laboratory orders outside the US Realm.
- Note that the authors of this guide did not validate whether constraints on components should be loosened to support these use cases. This will be addressed in a future version, including definition of minimal incremental profiles to support these use cases. Until such time, implementers are not discouraged from attempting to use this guide for those use cases but should recognize that they may not be able to remain fully conformant. The authors invite comments from implementers on their experience to inform the next version.
- Concepts related to: order queues, clearing houses, or other transport-level mechanisms and protocols that may be used to transfer or hold laboratory orders for later retrieval by a laboratory selected to perform the laboratory service.
- Multi-order status requests (for one patient or multiple patients).
- Specification of the required/supported error condition codes as part of acknowledgments in REST or with a FHIR Resource.
- Laboratory orders not transmitted electronically.
- Secondary uses of laboratory order data.
- The human mechanisms required to resolve differences between the order identifier and the specimen label.
- Specimen labeling and transport.
- Physical transport level confirmations.
- Interactions between the LIS and EHR System for add-on orders beyond the transmission of the order (to address scenarios such as insufficient specimen or late arrivals of add-on orders).
Actors
There are two actors that have responsibilities related to the conformance profiles defined in this
document:
- Laboratory Order Sender - The originator of the DiagnosticOrder Resource Instance that declares conformance to "RESTful FHIR" and
FHIR profiles defined in this guide. This actor is the Organization Resource referenced through the .orderer (Practitioner) Resource within FHIR.
- Laboratory Order Receiver - The receiver of the DiagnosticOrder Resource Instance that declares conformance
to "RESTful FHIR" and FHIR profiles defined in this guide. This actor is implied within FHIR. ( i.e. not explicitly referenced in the DiagnosticOrder Resource Instance or the linked resources).
Orders for Ambulatory Care Use Case and Context Diagrams

Figure 2-2. Context Diagram
User Story
Use Case Assumptions
- Providers (.orderer) securely access clinical information through an EHR system.
- Users have a need to exchange laboratory order data between ambulatory care EHRs and
laboratories.
- An EHR system has the ability to manage a laboratory order, including generating the laboratory
requisition and sending it to a laboratory.
- Requisitions are defined by laboratory practice and their exact instantiation is determined
by trading partner agreement.
- An EHR system is capable of generating an order electronically and is capable of receiving and
processing acknowledgments, results and cancellations.
- A LIS is capable of receiving orders and cancellation requests, and generating
acknowledgments and cancellation notifications.
- The Laboratory is capable of receiving laboratory orders electronically and in standardized
structured format.
- The EHR System and LIS both use data models that include discrete representations of patients,
clinician end-users, laboratory requisitions, laboratory orders (which include tests and panels),
and laboratory test results (minimally at the level of individual analytes).
- The USLabResult Profile
and the USLabOrder Profile will be
synchronized with the goal that a laboratory that receives an order conforming to the USLabOrder Profile should
be capable of responding with a message conforming to the USLabResult Profile.
- Appropriate security and transport protocols, patient identification methodology, order
identification methodology, patient consent, privacy and security procedures, coding,
vocabulary, error handling, and normalization standards have been agreed to by all relevant
participants.
- Legal and governance issues regarding data access authorizations, data ownership, and data use
are in effect.
- Established network and policy infrastructure exists to enable consistent, appropriate, and
accurate information exchange across provider systems, data repositories and locator services.
This includes, but is not limited to:
- Methods to identify and authenticate users;
- Methods to identify and determine Providers of care;
- Methods to enforce data access authorization policies;
- Methods to ensure the veracity of data;
- Detailed audit trails are kept as necessary by all participating systems.
- Security and privacy policies, procedures and practices are commonly implemented to support
acceptable levels of patient privacy and security; i.e. HIPAA, HITECH and EHR certification
criteria.
Pre-Conditions
Note: The pre- and post-conditions may not apply to all scenarios.
- The Provider (.orderer) has performed all of the necessary checks for medical necessity,
insurance eligibility and any needed pre-authorizations.
- After a Provider (.orderer) enters a laboratory order, the EHR system generates an
electronic laboratory requisition containing pertinent information as well as appropriate
identifiers, such as patient, order, and specimen.
- The Laboratory's test compendium has been entered (manually or via automation) into the EHR
system.
- Information for the cancellation requests for laboratory orders has been accurately captured
within the EHR System.
- All appropriate billing information is available within the EHR system.
- Specimens are labeled in accordance with established policies and procedures for specimen
submission and can be linked to the order

4CLSI. Specimen Labels: Content and Location, Fonts, and Label Orientation; Approved Standard. CLSI document AUTO12-A. Wayne, PA: Clinical and
Laboratory Standards Institute; 2011; ISBN 1-56238-748-0; ISSN 0273-3099, Volume 31 Number 7.
Post-Conditions
- Laboratory orders are successfully transmitted electronically from the Provider's (.orderer) EHR System to the Laboratory's LIS. The Receiving Laboratory electronically
transmits acknowledgment of receipt of the laboratory order. The received order may be placed
into an electronic queue for further processing depending on laboratory workflow (although
order queues are out of scope for this Use Case).
- Specimen(s) associated with the laboratory order are collected and, if necessary, transported to
the laboratory.
- The laboratory processes the laboratory order and associated specimen(s). This step may include
retrieval and processing of laboratory orders from a queue or list of received orders. Order
queues may be used in the LIS to hold electronic laboratory orders until associated specimens are
received and the appropriate patient matching and registration occur (although order queues are
out of scope for this Use Case). After patient matching and registration, the electronic order may
be electronically processed in the LIS.
- If the laboratory order and specimen(s) are satisfactory for testing the laboratory will perform, or
attempt to perform, the test(s).
- The laboratory test result is obtained, entered/released in the LIS, and sent to the Provider's
(.orderer) EHR System. This is covered within the Laboratory Results Interface Use
Case.
- Successfully transmit laboratory order cancellation request from the Provider's (.orderer)
EHR system to the Laboratory's LIS.
- The Laboratory's LIS has electronically received the laboratory order cancellation request.
- The Laboratory's cancellation of a requisition (one or more orders) or an individual order has
been electronically received by the Provider's (.orderer) EHR System. Note that
cancellation of part of an order must be done through a DiagnosticResult Resource as defined in the USLabResult Profile.
Scenario 1 - Electronic Ordering Of New Or Scheduled
Laboratory Test(S)
Using an EHR System, a Provider (Order Placer) orders one or more new laboratory tests or scheduled
laboratory tests (including future tests) to be performed by a laboratory.
Functional Requirements
todo
Sequence Diagram
Figure N-N: Scenario 1 Sequence Diagram
Scenario 2 - Electronic Ordering Of Add-On Laboratory Test(S)
Using an EHR System, a Provider (Order Placer) adds one or more additional tests to a previously
transmitted test requisition.
Note that if there is no need to relate the additional order to the specimen associated with a prior order,
the regular new order must be followed.
At the time the provider requests an order to be added, this may occur when the specimen is already
drawn or still needs to be drawn. The provider may not know which situation is in place.
Therefore, this guide suggests that until there is more clarity on how the provider's ordering system is
updated with specimen collection information, the provider's add-on order request is communicated as a
regular order and may use, if known:
- The .identifier, when using non-unique order numbers, of the original order; and/or
- The .identifier that was used when the original order was placed; and/or
- The Specimen.identifier or other specimen data of the specimen the order is intended to be added to.
Using the first two methods make it appear, other than the transaction date/time, as if the order was
placed together and consistent with the original order.
The third method clearly associates the new order with the same specimen that was already collected for
a prior order. Note that depending on the state of the order fulfillment, the Laboratory may not be able to
perform the requested test against the intended specimen as it may be too late for a number of reasons
(e.g., insufficient specimen, specimen too old).
Scenario 3 - Requesting The Cancellation Of A Previously Placed
Laboratory Order
The Provider (.orderer) determines that one or more orders from a previously transmitted
electronic laboratory requisition needs to be canceled and requests via the EHR that the Laboratory
cancel the performance of the laboratory order(s).
Since the Provider does not know how far the Laboratory has progressed with the performance of the
test, or may not even have received the specimen, the Provider must use the USLabOrder DiagnosticOrder Cancel
Profile.
The Laboratory determines whether the test can be canceled, or whether the order has progressed too
far to cancel. Laboratories must use the USLabReport DiagnosticResult Cancel Profile.
Once the Provider receives any preliminary or final results, the test cannot be canceled anymore and the
Provider shall not use the USLabOrder DiagnosticOrder Cancel
Profile. anymore.
Functional Requirements
todo
Sequence Diagram
Figure N-N: Scenario 3 Sequence Diagram
Scenario 4 - Laboratory Cancellation Of A Previously Placed
Laboratory Order
The Laboratory may cancel laboratory orders and send a cancellation notification
message to the Provider (Order Placer) because it is unable to perform the laboratory order, independent
of the Provider requesting cancellation. This applies to an original/initial order or an add-on order.
Laboratories can cancel a test request received by the LIS (or queue for this purpose) any time before the
test report (preliminary or final) is transmitted to the provider(s). Laboratories must use the USLabReport DiagnosticResult Cancel Profile. See that Implementation Guide for details.
Key Technical Decisions
Profile And Component Architecture
This guide uses FHIR profiles on the following resource to define a minimum set of requirements to enable the
successful exchange of laboratory orders:
- DiagnosticOrder
- DiagnosticReport
- Organization
- Media
- Organization
- Patient
- Practitioner
- Specimen
The main objective is to ensure that EHR systems and
Laboratory systems can exchange laboratory orders with minimum if any modifications from one
combination to another combination of software, while maintaining flexibility to enable software
developers to provide more capabilities using the same core Resource definitions.
Use Of Vocabulary Standards
This guide calls for specific vocabulary standards for the exchange of laboratory information such as
LOINC and SNOMED. Standard vocabularies, particularly coded laboratory tests and their results,
enable automated decision support for patient healthcare, as well as for public health surveillance of
populations. Value Sets resource are provided as part of this implementation.
Scope Of Implementation
Due to receiving system variations and need, this guide does not specifically indicate for each field
whether to store it or not. This is left to the individual system's scope and purpose.
Ask At Order Entry (AOE) Observations
Ask at Order Entry (AOE) responses are recorded as observations that provide critical information for
the calculation or interpretation of some lab results or to satisfy state and federal health agency
mandated information gathering requirements, e.g., for blood lead testing. Not every order will have the
need for AOE questions and associated observations. The lab will indicate if and which AOEs to include
with the order in their test compendium.
Examples of the type of information gathered from a patient include employment information,
pregnancy status, the date of the last menstrual period, mother's age, and questions about family and
personal history. In some cases there may be AOEs that request the outcome of previous results phrased
as a question, e.g., "Was your previous pap abnormal?"
AOE responses can take several formats, including but not limited to
- Yes/No (and coded) to answer questions like "Is this your first pregnancy?"
- A code drawn from a value set to provide a coded response to, e.g., "What ethnicity do you
consider yourself to be?"
- A number with units for the mother's age
- A date format for the patient's last menstrual period.
.supporting information element with type Reference(Observation) must be used in the DiagnosticOrder Resource to convey these Ask at Order Entry questions.
Although not strictly asked at order entry, other supporting clinical information about the patient
collected during specimen collection, e.g., fasting status of the patient, are considered AOE observations
for purposes of this guide and must be communicated using the .supporting information element with type Reference(Observation) as well.
LOINC shall be used as the standard coding system for AOE questions if an appropriate and valid
LOINC code exists. The LOINC and local code describing the question will be placed in Observation.name element. Appropriate and valid status is defined in the LOINC Manual Section 11.2 Classification of LOINC Term Status. If a local coding system is in use, both the LOINC and the local
code should also be sent to help with identification of coding issues. When no valid LOINC exists, the local code may be the only code sent.
Special Considerations
Note that various Ask at Order Entry questions may appear to have specific elements in FHIR Resources.
When a clinically relevant value is asked through an Ask at Order Entry question it
must be conveyed through the OBX segments as described above as these values are used for
clinical interpretations rather than through a seemingly similar FHIR element.
The following provide specific examples and guidance whether to use a FHIR element or the supporting information element with type Reference(Observation).
This is list is not meant to be exhaustive:
- Date of Birth - Always use Patient.birthDate and should never be asked as an AOE as
there is only one at any point in time.
- The extension us-core-race(http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/us-core-race) is provided for demographic (administrative/billing), not clinical use and is bound to define five race categories as prescribed by federal standards. The
lab must provide an AOE for those tests where Race drives the interpretation of results. The
value must be determined by the Ordering Provider and must be sent as the .supporting information element with type Reference(Observation). Note that state and/or national regulations may dictate other behaviors.
- The extension us-core-ethnicity(http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/us-core-ethnicity) is provided for demographic (administrative/billing), not clinical use and is bound to specify two ethnicity categories as prescribed by federal standards. The lab must provide an AOE where Ethnicity drives the interpretation of results. The value must be determined by the Ordering Provider and must be sent as the .supporting information element with type Reference(Observation. Note that state and/or national regulations may dictate other behaviors.
More specific race and ethnicity values are available, but not limited to,
those found v3 Code System Race and v3 Code System Ethnicity.
Communication Of Other Clinical Information Or Prior Results
Should the need arise to send results not obtained at the time of order entry or specimen collection
and/or those requiring full results report structure such as culture/sensitivity reports. Use the USlabOrder DiagnosticReport priorResults extension.
Error Handling
Refer to the FHIR Specification on REST status codes and the use of the OperationOutcome Resource when further information about the transaction error is needed. Note: The error handling specifications are currently not fully defined for this implementation.
Additional Implementation Guidance - Other
Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments Considerations
In the United States, clinical laboratory testing of human specimens is regulated by the Clinical
Laboratory Improvements Amendments of 1988 (CLIA). Several sections of the regulations
implementing CLIA impact how electronic laboratory data is formatted for the US Realm and these are
outlined in this section. Impacted areas include mandatory test request requirements.
CLIA Regulation Specifics.
Mandatory Ordering Requirements
Section 493.1241 of the CLIA Regulations requires the laboratory to have a written or electronic request
for patient testing from an authorized person, and defines items that must appear as part of a clinical
laboratory test request . The laboratory may
accept oral requests for laboratory tests if it solicits a written or electronic authorization within 30 days
of the oral request and maintains the authorization or documentation of its efforts to obtain the
authorization.
Interpretative guidelines on the elements required in a test requisition . Specific fields impacted include the following:
| FHIR element |
CLIA Requirement. |
| Patient.name |
The patient's name or unique patient identifier. |
| Patient.gender |
The sex and age or date of birth of the patient. |
| DiagnosticOrder.orderer |
The name and address or other suitable identifiers of the authorized person requesting the test. |
| DiagnosticOrder.orderer |
The individual responsible for using the test results. |
| Practitioner.organization |
The name and address of the laboratory submitting the specimen. |
| Practitioner.telecom|Organization.telecom |
Contact person to enable the reporting of imminently life threatening laboratory results or panic or alert values. |
| DiagnosticOrder.name |
The test(s) to be performed. |
| DiagnosticOrder.supportingInformation |
For Pap smears, the patient's last menstrual period, and indication of whether the patient had a previous abnormal report, treatment or biopsy. |
| Specimen.type |
The source (type) of the specimen, when appropriate. |
| Specimen.collection.collected[x] |
The date and, if appropriate, time of specimen collection. |
| DiagnosticOrder.supportingInformation |
Any additional information relevant and necessary for a specific test to ensure accurate and timely testing and reporting of results, including interpretation, if applicable. |
Glossary
- Analyte: Component represented in the name of a measurable quantity. It is the most granular level at which
measurements are made and always represented using a single Observation segment group
- Cancellation: Act of cancelling the order.
- Electronic Health Record: Clinical information for a specific patient that is stored electronically within an EHR-S.
Electronic Health Record
System (EHR-S)
This IG uses this term in the same context as stated in the "HL7 EHR System Functional Model White
Paper" Section 4 Definitions (HL7 2004 www.hl7.org):
"It is important to note that the DSTU does not attempt to establish another definition for EHR Systems,
but chooses to utilize existing definitions that include the concept of EHR Systems as a system (at least
one) or a system-of- systems that cooperatively meet the needs of the end user."
- Future Order: A future order is an order with a start date/time where that start date/time indicates the earliest time the
specimen can be collected.
- Laboratory: A facility or organization that performs laboratory testing on specimens for the purpose of providing
information for the diagnosis, prevention, treatment of disease or impairment, or assessment of health for
humans.
Laboratory Information
System (LIS)
An information system that receives, processes, and stores information related to laboratory processes.
LIS may interface with HIS and EHR applications.
This definition is very minimal and omits many features and capabilities that are typically associated with
laboratory information systems. This minimal characterization is intentional, as to include the broadest
possible set of LIS systems in the use case. The minimal nature of the definition by no means excludes
LIS with significantly greater capabilities.
- Laboratory Order: a DiagnosticOrder Resource item requesting one or more measurements (Observation Resources). Synonymous with a Requisition when referring to a single DiagnosticOrder Resource item.
- Laboratory Order System: Software, either stand-alone or as part of an EHR system, used by a Provider (Order Placer) to manage a laboratory order, including generating the laboratory requisition and sending it to a laboratory.
Typically a laboratory order system is an integral part of an order management system that enables users
to manage orders for many different types of services, procedures, supplies, etc. Since this guide only
focuses on data exchange relative to laboratory orders it is purposely using a very limited definition.
- Laboratory Requisition: A set of information that constitutes an official request for one or more laboratory tests to be performed on
an individual patient. A laboratory requisition is specified in a clinical setting and communicated to a
laboratory as a discrete paper or electronic artifact. Laboratory requisitions always include at least one
test order. In terms of a FHIR order transaction it represents one or more DiagnosticOrders Resource item(s).
- Newborn: The precise cutoff when a patient is considered a newborn or an infant is subject to interpretation and this
guide does not intend to provide a definitive answer to that. For further background the reader is directed
to the following resources:
- Orderable Test: A request to perform an individual test or panel. It always refers to a single DiagnosticOrder Resource item. and may have one or more associated analytes (bservations).observations
- Panel: While there are differences in the meanings of the terms "panel" among various laboratories, for the
purposes of this guide, it is defined as a grouping of procedures that measure multiple analytes from a
single specimen (or multiple specimens in some cases) and can be requested through one laboratory
order. This is also referred to as a battery. For example, a CBC or a urinalysis may be referred to as a
panel.
- Order Set: A set of laboratory orders that involve multiple tests and panels and that may require multiple specimens,
but can be requested as a single unit for convenience. For example, a "diabetic order set profile" might
include a CBC, a glycosylated hemoglobin test, and a urinalysis. The term "panel" is frequently used
interchangeably with "order set", thus an order set profile that contains a variety of laboratory test orders
that may be on its own or be combined with other test orders (e.g., radiology image, consult, etc.) can be
considered an order set. Order sets shall not be communicated to the laboratory.
Request for Cancellation
(RFC)
Request by the Provider (Order Placer) not to perform the order.
- Test: A medical procedure or named set of related procedures that involves analyzing one analyte using a
single sample of blood, urine, or other specimen from a patient for the purpose of diagnosing a disease or
medical condition, planning or evaluating treatment, or monitoring the course of a disease.

--- layout: post tag: Algorithm excerpt: We can use greedy algorithms (e.g. Kruskal's algorithm) to find the Minimum Spanning Tree in O(mlog(n)) time. Actually, the same idea extends to a family of problems ̶ matroids optimization problem. ---
A matroid \(M = (E, I)\) is defined on a ground set \(E\) and an independent set \(I\), where \(I\) is a collection of subsets of \(E\) and \(I\) must satisfy two axioms:
Given a matroid \(M = (E, I)\) and a cost function \(c : E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}\), find \(S \in I\) which maximizes \(c(S) = \sum_{e \in S} c(e)\). If the cost is nonnegative, then it's equivalent to find the maximum cost base of \(I\). If there is a negative \(e\), then it cannot appear in the optimal set, thus we can simply remove it.
def findMaximumSpanningSets(elements, edgeList):
"""
elements = {elem: cost}
"""
n = len(edgeList)
elements = sorted(elements, key = lambda x: elements[x], \
reverse = True)
res = set()
for i in range(n):
if isIndependent(res.union(elements[i])):
res.update(elements[i])
return res
Given a Minimum Spanning Tree \(T = \{e_1, ..., e_{n - 1}\}\) of a graph \(G = (V, E)\), how to find the second-minimum spanning tree of \(G\)?
The straight forward approach is to delete each edge in \(T\) and run the MST algorithm. Repeat \(n - 1\) times, then pick the minimum. The greedy MST algo takes \(O(n^2 \log n)\) time, so the total is \(O(n^3 \log n)\)
What about just deleting one edge in \(T\) and try the rest of the edges and see if it's the second-MST. This should cost \(O(n^3)\). As when we delete an edge, we are left with two spanning trees, which should be the corresponding MST in each subgraph. We just need to find another bridge to connect the two trees. Here is the solution to this problem which comes in a slightly different way.

Blackjack Table Class¶
The bets in Blackjack are associated with a hand. A player may have more than one hand in play. This will lead us to create a subclass of table to handle this complexity. In order to manage the relationships between hand and bet, we’ll rework hand, also.
We’ll look at the table in Blackjack Table Analysis.
Based on the classes defined so far, we can look at the design for the table in BlackjackTable Class.
We’ll look at some minor rework to Hand
in Hand Rework.
In Blackjack Table Deliverables we’ll enumerate the deliverables for this chapter.
Blackjack Table Analysis¶
When we look at the game of Blackjack, we note that a player’s Hand
object
can be split into multiple Hand
instances.
In some casinos, resplits are allowed, leading to the
possibility of three or more Hand
instances. Each individual Hand
object
has a separate ante Bet
and seperate resolution. This is
different from the way bets are currently managed for Roulette and Craps,
where the bets are associated with the player.
We have several alternatives for modeling this:
Assign responsibility to the
Table
class to keep track of bets tied to the variousHand
instances. This would make theHand
a potential key into a mapping to associate aHand
object with one or moreBet
instances. BecauseHand
instances change state, this is a poor choice for keys to a dictionary.We could put a reference to a
Hand
object into eachBet
object. In this way, as eachBet
object is resolved, the relevantHand
object can be evaluated to determine theOutcome
instance that applies and what they payout odds are.We could put a reference to the Ante
Bet
object into theHand
instance. In this way, as eachHand
instance is resolved, the relevantBet
instances can be paid or lost.
It’s helpful to look at the alternatives carefullly and try to identify the various forces and consequences.
We suggest designing the Hand
class to contain the associated ante Bet
object.
This is least disruptive to the Bet
class definition, which is a simple thing
used widely in other games.
Additional Bets.
While most Bet
instances are associated with a specific Hand
object,
the insurance Bet
instance is always resolved before an additional hand
can be created. There doesn’t seem to be an essential association between
the initial Hand
object and the insurance Bet
object. We
can treat insurance as a Bet
instance that follows the model
established for Craps and Roulette – it belongs to the player, rather than a particular hand.
Currently, the Bet
instances are collected by the Table
instance. If
we create a BlackjackTable
subclass to use a Hand
object
when creating a Bet
instance, we can have this method do both
tasks: it can attach the Bet
object to the Hand
instance, and
it can save the Bet
object on the Table
instance, also.
BlackjackTable Class¶
-
class
BlackjackTable
¶ The
BlackjackTable
class is an extension toTable
that handles the additional association betweenBet
instances and specificHand
instances in Blackjack.
Constructors¶
Methods¶
-
BlackjackTable.
placeBet
(self, bet: Bet, hand: Hand) → None¶ - Parameters
Updates the given
hand
to reference the givenbet
. Then uses the superclassplaceBet()
to add this bet to the list of working bets.
-
BlackjackTable.
__str__
(self) → str¶ Provides a nice string display of the state of the table.
Hand Rework¶
The Hand
class contains a collection of individual Card
instances,
and determines an appropriate total point value for the hand.
We need to add a field and some appropriate methods for associating a Bet with a Hand.
Fields¶
Methods¶
We have two implementation choices here. We’ll show these as setters and getters. However, it’s common to make these both properties of a hand.
-
setBet
(self, ante: Bet) → None¶ - Parameters
ante (
Bet
) – The initial bet required to play
Sets the ante
Bet
that will be resolved when this hand is finished.
Here’s the alternative implementation. We can use properties for this feature.
Properties for getter and setter
class Hand:
@property
def bet(self):
return self.ante
@bet.setter
def bet(self, bet):
self.ante = bet
In this example, we’ve created a property, bet
, so that can write code
like this: h.bet
to fetch the bet associated with the hand.
By itself, this isn’t too useful. The setter property, however, allows us
to write code like this h.bet = Bet("Ante",1)
. We can then implement
any additional processing in the hand that needs to be done when the bet is changed.
Blackjack Table Deliverables¶
There are four deliverables for this exercise.
The revised
Hand
class.A class which performs a unit tests of the
Hand
class. The unit test should create several instances ofCard
,FaceCard
andAceCard
, and add these to instances ofHand
, to create various point totals. Additionally, the unit test should create aBet
and associate it with theHand
.The
BlackjackTable
class.A class which performs a unit tests of the
BlackjackTable
class. The unit test should create several instances ofHand
andBet
to create multipleHand
instances, each with uniqueBet
instances.
Looking Forward¶
Now that we have the core objects – card, deck, hand, and table – we can
look at the details of how the game proceeds. This involves creating multiple
hands, oferring specialized betting and playing choices, and tracking the evolving
state of a number of hands. The next chapter will look at the Game
subclass
for Blackjack.

shapeGen.js allows a person to easily create CSS shapes. These shapes are generated by a jQuery plugin that work based on inputs from attributes of the HTML element.
There are several kinds of shapes that can be made using shapeGen.js using a single line of HTML code. To create a shape, follow these steps:
Step 1: Include the scripts inside the  tags:

Step 2: Add this where you want the shape to appear:

The available shapes are:
The following color formats are accepted:
The br in the
tag is optional. By default, these shapes are inline-blocks. if the br is added, it makes the shape a block and puts it on a seperate line.
Example

Circle and Oval:
For an oval, the size is specified in x-axis and y-axis, seperated by a comma. If there is no comma, the shape is a circle. For example:

and

Square and Rectangle:
Just like an oval, the size is specified in x-axis and y-axis, seperated by a comma. If there is no comma, the shape is a circle. For example:

and

Triangle:
For a triangle, the size specified is used as the height of the triangle. Triangles have an extra attribute to specify direction (n, s, e, w, ne, nw...). If no direction is specified, the triangle defaults to n.

Examples of the directions:
Trapezium:
For a trapezium, the sizes specified are used as the top side, bottom side and the height, in that order.

and

Note: It is possible to create isosceles triangles by setting either the too or bottom to 0.

More shapes coming soon...

Module ringo/concurrent
Utilities for working with multiple concurrently running threads.
Semaphore (permits)
A counting semaphore that can be used to coordinate and synchronize cooperation between synchronous threads. A semaphore keeps a number of permits.
Note that Worker
events are usually run in the single thread of the local
event loop and thus don't require synchronization provided by semaphores.
The only case when you may want to use a semaphore with workers is when
setting the syncCallbacks
flag as second argument to Worker.postMessage()
since this will cause callbacks from the worker to be run in their own
thread instead of the event loop.
To synchronize threads using a semaphore, a threads may ask for one or more permits using the wait and tryWait methods. If the requested number of permits is available, they are subtracted from the number of permits in the semaphore and the method returns immediately.
If the number of requested permits is not available, the wait
and tryWait
methods block until another thread adds the required permits using the
signal method or, in the case of tryWait
,
the specified timeout expires.
Parameters
| permits | the number of initial permits, defaults to 0 |
Semaphore.prototype.signal (permits)
Add one or more permits to the semaphore.
Parameters
| permits | the number of permits to give, defaults to 1 |
Semaphore.prototype.tryWait (timeout, permits)
Wait for one or more permits for the given span of time. Returns true if the requested permits could be acquired before the timeout elapsed.
Parameters
| timeout | The span of time to wait, in milliseconds | |
| permits | the number of permits to wait for, defaults to 1 |
Returns
| true if the requested permits could be acquired, false if the timeout elapsed |
Semaphore.prototype.wait (permits)
Wait for one or more permits.
Parameters
| permits | the number of permits to wait for, defaults to 1 |

Royal Mail Goes to Court to Block Pre-Christmas Strike
by AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSELONDON (AFP) — Royal Mail on Friday made a High Court bid to block a postal strike by workers due next month ahead of Christmas and around the time of Britain’s general election.
Members of the Communication Workers Union recently voted to strike amid a dispute with management over pay and other employment conditions.
In a statement, Royal Mail pointed to “potential irregularities in the ballot.”
It added: “The company is making this High Court application because the integrity and legal soundness of any electoral process is vital,” Royal Mail said in relation to the strike ballot.
“This is particularly the case in relation to potential industrial action around the general election on 12 December 2019.
“Royal Mail is also making this application because of the damage industrial action would do to the company and its customers in the run-up to Christmas,” the group added.
It expects the hearing to take place next week.
