To use Jane, begin by downloading the .zip file available from the main page. Once you have unzipped it, there will be a jar file in the Jane folder. To run Jane, use the command java -jar Jane.jar. On some machines, you can simply click or double-click on the Jane.jar icon. (If Jane crashes when you run on a large problem, it is almost certainly because Java ran out of memory. Use the command line option -Xmx512m in this case.)
There is also a command-line version of jane included in the jar which can be invoked with java -cp Jane.jar Jane treefile. This version of Jane is particularly useful for conducting large-scale experiments controlled by scripts. More details on this option are given at the end of this tutorial.
Next, open a tree file by going to File > Open Tree. Jane supports two formats: .nex files, formatted in the style used by TreeMap, and .tree files, formatted in the style used by Tarzan. A more exact specification of file formats used by Jane, as well as some example files can be found here.
Once you open a tree file, its filename and a count of host and parasite tips will appear at the top of the window.
Jane has several configuration options that determine how well it reconciles the trees, and what criteria to use.
 Jane will then run through the genetic algorithm. Those solutions will appear in the list at the bottom of the screen
Each of these solutions is a relative timing of the vertices in the
host tree. It is likely that many of them will contain similar optimal
solutions.
Double-click on one of the solutions to bring up a solution viewer.
Within the solution viewer, there are four types of events
| Cospeciation | |
| Duplication | |
| Host Switch | |
| Loss |
Note: On Windows and Linux machines, the small "hole" in the circle for a copseciation node is very small and may be hard to see on some displays. However, note that a cospeciation always has two vertical segments emanating from it, which clearly distinguishes it from a duplication which always has one vertical and one horizontal emanating segment.
Notice that each type of event corresponding to a vertex in the
parasite tree is marked with a colored circle. These circles
indicate the existence of other possible locations for the
association. A green circle means there is a location of lower cost
where the parasite vertex could be mapped. A yellow circle means that
there is a location of equal cost, and red circle means that any other locations that may exist are of higher cost. When dragging an association, segments of the host tree will light up colors corresponding to the cost of moving the association to that edge or vertex.
If a timing is of interest, you can save it (but not any changes made to the parasite tree within that timing) by going to File > Save Timing inside the solution viewer window. Then, any time that tree is loaded in the main window, you can go to File > Load Timing, open the timing, and it will be added back into the list of solutions at the bottom of the window. Command-line users can save the best timing found by using the -o switch with the name of a file to store the timing in.
It's worth noting that the timing files are written in a human-readable format, so they can be modified if you want to explore a specific timing.
Jane can be invoked from the command-line rather than by launching the
graphical user interface as follows:
java -cp Jane.jar Jane treefile
where treefile is the file name to be used. A full listing
of the command-line options can be found as follows:
jave -cp Jane.jar Jane -help
Finally, for very large tree files and timing files,
Jane's interactive viewer may be
too slow or may exceed the memory of the computer. Therefore, a
version of Jane with a more efficient
non-interactive viewer is available by invoking:
java -cp Jane.jar SimpleViewer
This version has all of the command-line options of Jane. In
addition, there is also a -o switch that outputs an image (in png
format) of the solution.

You will never look at crisps in the same way again – no longer just the crunch to accompany your sandwich, they can also be the crunch that accompanies your dessert!
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Grease a 23cm/9in, loose-bottomed, fairly deep tart tin.
For the base, crush the crisps to crumbs in a sealed plastic bag with a rolling pin or use a food processor. Melt the butter with the golden syrup in a pan. Stir in the crisp crumbs to bring together.
Press the crisp mixture evenly into the base and sides of the tart tin. Line the tin with non-stick baking parchment and fill with baking beans. Put onto an oven tray and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the baking beans and parchment and set aside to cool.
Meanwhile, for the topping, melt the butter and chocolate in a heat-proof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water), stirring now and again until completely melted and glossy. Remove from the heat and leave to cool a little.
Whisk together the eggs, yolks and sugar in a large bowl using an electric whisk for 3-4 minutes, until pale and thickened. Whisk the melted chocolate into the egg mixture, until completely incorporated. Stir in a little more than half the peanuts.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the crisp base and sprinkle the remaining peanuts over the top. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until almost set, but still with a very slight wobble. If the tart is still very wobbly, bake for a further 5 minutes. Leave to cool completely in the tin on a rack, then chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
Carefully remove from the tin, slice and serve. Delicious with some vanilla ice cream on the side.

hello, I am just getting started using lean and was wondering if anyone could help me out
I am trying to prove the IVT using the basic functions in lean. Right now, I have the following:
theorem intermediate_value {f : ℝ → ℝ} (Hf : continuous f)
{a b : ℝ} (Hab : a < b)
(Hav : f a < 0) (Hbv : f b > 0) :
∃ c, a < c ∧ c < b ∧ f c = 0 :=
begin
let K := {x | a<b ∧ x>a ∧ x<b ∧ f x <= 0},
let c := is_lub K,
--here I would like to use the definition of least upper bound, image of c, and continuity to say that f(c) is within epsilon of 0 but I'm not sure how to use the syntax of lean
end
is_lub
is a predicate; you probably want let c := Sup K
.
BTW, no need to include a < b
in the definition of K
. You already have it in Hab
.
If you use non-strict inequalities everywhere, then you'll be able to say that K
is closed, hence it contains its Sup (see cSup_mem_of_is_closed
).
And you'll need to show that f x < 0
is impossible.
Or you can do something like (not tested)
rcases lt_trichotomy 0 (f c) with Hc | Hc | Hc,
In two cases you'll get to a contradiction, and in the middle case you'll need to show a < c
and c < b
.
It makes sense to prove a ≤ c
and c ≤ b
before doing rcases
.
Use cSup_le
and le_cSup
lemmas.
which import statement do I need in order to use Sup?
What is your mathlib version? It older versions it is in lattice
namespace (was changed a few weeks ago).
It is defined in order/complete_lattice
; lemmas that work for reals are in order/conditionally_complete_lattice
, and the latter file is import
ed by data/real/basic
.
So, if you have real numbers, then you probably have Sup
and most of its properties.
thanks, I had the old version!

Left should 'join forces' before next election says Labour party chairman Jack O'Connor
by By Juno McEnroeLabour party chairman Jack O'Connor has called for parties on the left to join forces as a general election looms in the New Year.
Speaking at the party's national conference in Mullingar, Westmeath, Mr O'Connor appealed to Labour members to work with the Social Democrats and the Greens in a bid to alter the political landscape.
He made the call as TDs, senators and delegates gathered in the Midlands where party later Brendan Howlin today will officially launch its by-election campaign.
But speaking at the opening of the conference, Jack O'Connor accused Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael of being “wedded to the market”.
The former SIPTU boss argued that there was a need for parties and society to shift or change in order to “tackle inequality”.
He said that the left needed to be “cohesive” as he called for parties on the left, including Labour, the Social Democrats and the Greens, to work together.
Labour leader Brendan Howlin later today will launch the party's bid to elect new TDs in the four by-elections taking place on November 29.
It is expected that Labour's strongest hopes lie in candidates Cllr George Lawlor in Wexford and Cllr Duncan Smith in Dublin Fingal.
Labour senator Ivana Bacik this morning also told the conference that the party wanted to “end the scourge of homelessness”.
She said Labour had a strong track record in delivering equality for women, workers rights and children's rights.

WebRTC Session
The WebRtcSession class is intended to be the equivalent of the RTCPeerConnection available in WebRTC supporting Browsers.
NOTE the goal for WebRtcSession class' public interface is to make it as close as possible to the RTCPeerConnection interface. This is currently a work in progress.
Usage
The steps involved in getting a WebRTC session to a state where RTP media packets can be exchanged are:
- Instantiate the WebRtcSession instance,
- Add the audio and/or video tracks as required,
- Call the
createOffer
method to acquire an SDP offer that can be sent to the remote peer, - Send the SDP offer and get the SDP answer from the remote peer (this exchange is not part of the WebRTC specification and can be done using any signalling layer, examples are SIP, web sockets etc),
- Once the SDP exchange has occurred the ICE checks occur to establish the optimal network path between the two peers (this happens under the hood, no explicit methods need to be called),
- Once ICE has established a the DTLS handshake is initiated by calling
DtlsHandshake.DoHandshakeAsServer
, - If the DTLS handshake is successful the keying material it produces is used to initialise the SRTP contexts,
- After the SRTP contexts are initialised the media and RTCP packets can be exchanged in the normal manner.

Zero percent personal time, A writing project for English, two major assignments for Critical Thinking, three Computer Science projects, four Midterms, five mathematical computing labs, and six feet tall me surviving on less than seven hours of sleep. There are still eight more exams, nine more essays, and in less than ten weeks to complete the second semester, this is the story of my life. When I wanted to write about this blog, I wanted to write something opposite to the previous blog on calendar planning because things were not going as smoothly as I wanted for the second semester.
Maybe because I was over planning the second semester or even the workload was a little too much, but there has been a time in this semester, where I slept for three hours and lived on coffee the entire day. Somehow I saw a lot of change in me, so I decided to throw away my old calendar plan and make the new one for the next ten weeks, sorry the next ten crucial weeks.
Tip 1: Take some personal time and spend it with your family, I believe this is one of the hardest phases of my life. I used to talk for hours with my parents in a day during high school, but now I don’t even get thirty minutes to talk. I don’t complain about my schedule, but I need to give myself some time. So, I can relax and give myself some time to sleep.
Tip 2: Work on my fitness, from next week I want to work out for at least thirty minutes a day to keep my body and mind sharp. I believe that this time might actually help me in my daily life too.
Tip 3: Productive sleep, if you sleep for five hours only, then make that sleep the most peaceful. Don’t think about anything else during that time. Personally I hate naps because I can’t break my concentration on work and sleep, so I suggest avoiding naps and sleep well and constant at whatever the time you sleep.
Tip 4: To all my friends who commute, try making your commute as much fun and interesting as possible. If you don’t like reading on the way home, try to watch series, or to listen to podcasts, or even explore music. I used this time and started exploring different web series and anthologies.
Let us see, how does this affect my life and the interesting second semester. I don’t know if I am actually going to work, or actually give myself personal time, but I will try to learn something new from every move I make. I recently told my father a quote I wrote and I want to share it here, “Every time I feel lost, I will reinvent myself.” Now, it’s time for me to go give some personal time, see you all next week.


Library: Algorithms
Function
Algorithm that performs a binary search for a value
#include <algorithm> namespace std { template <class ForwardIterator, class T> bool binary_search(ForwardIterator start, ForwardIterator finish, const T& value); template <class ForwardIterator, class T, class Compare> bool binary_search(ForwardIterator start, ForwardIterator finish, const T& value, Compare comp); }
The binary_search() algorithm, like the related algorithms equal_range(), lower_bound(), and upper_bound(), performs a binary search on a range of ordered values. All binary search algorithms have two variations. The first variation uses the operator< to perform the comparison, and assumes that the sequence has been sorted using that operator. The second variation allows you to specify a function object of type Compare, which it assumes was the function used to sort the sequence. The function object must be a binary predicate.
The binary_search() algorithm returns true if a sequence contains an element equivalent to the argument value. The first variation of binary_search() returns true if the sequence contains at least one element that is equal to the search value. The second variation of the binary_search() algorithm returns true if the sequence contains at least one element that satisfies the conditions of the comparison function. Formally, binary_search() returns true if there is an iterator i in the range [start, finish) that satisfies the corresponding conditions:
!(*i < value) && !(value < *i)
or
comp(*i, value) == false && comp(value, *i) == false
binary_search() performs at most log(finish - start) + 2 comparisons.
// // b_search.cpp // #include <algorithm> // for copy, sort #include <deque> // for deque #include <functional> // for less #include <iostream> // for cout, endl, ostream_iterator int main () { // Typedefs for convenience. typedef std::deque<short, std::allocator<short> > deque; typedef std::ostream_iterator<deque::value_type, char, std::char_traits<char> > os_iter; const deque::value_type arr[] = { 0, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 2, 2, 6, 7 }; // Populate and sort the container. deque d (arr + 0, arr + sizeof arr / sizeof *arr); std::sort (d.begin (), d.end ()); // Try binary_search variants. bool b1 = std::binary_search (d.begin (), d.end (), 3); bool b2 = std::binary_search (d.begin (), d.end (), 11, std::less<int>()); // Output results. std::cout << "Container contents: "; std::copy (d.begin (), d.end (), os_iter (std::cout, " ")); std::cout << "\nThe number 3 was " << ("NOT found" + b1 * 4); std::cout << "\nThe number 11 was " << ("NOT found" + b2 * 4) << std::endl; return 0; } Program Output: Container contents: 0 1 2 2 2 2 3 4 6 7 The number 3 was found The number 11 was NOT found

Sending personally identifiable information (PII) to Google Analytics is strictly prohibited, but sending a unique user ID is permitted. This is a tutorial to aide users of the PII for Google Analytics Chrome extension. The extension allows you to map the user ID stored in Google Analytics to PII such as name and email address stored locally.
The test scenario we're using gives a pseudo-randomly generated User ID to each web page visitor. The "User ID" feature in Google Analytics is currently (April 2014) being rolled out, so in the meantime, we're using a Custom Dimension to store our own "Custom User ID".
On my local filesystem, I have created a set of sample personas in sample.csv which contains "User ID" values along with some personal information. This CSV file contains a header row to describe the columns.

Please note that this data is sample data and not real customer data.
In PII Viewer for Google Analytics, we upload the CSV file into the extension.
Now, the extension is installed locally and it saves the data to the local machine in Chrome's chrome.storage.local API. The point I'm making here is that the PII data is not uploaded anywhere outside of your local machine. This means that your PII data is safe. It also means that legally, you are complying with section 7 of the Google Analytics terms of service.
Next we select a "Select Google Analytics User Identifier column" from the list of columns. In the sample dataset, select user_id.
When setting up the tracking code, this user_id was used in the JavaScript. Something like this:
<script>
...
...
ga('create', 'UA-XXXXXX-Y', {'userId': customUserId}); // If "User ID" feature is available
ga('set', 'dimension1', customUserId); // Set a `customUserId` dimension at page level
ga('send', 'pageview');
</script>
Having configured the extension with the data and the mapping, you can jump straight into Google Analytics and see the extension in action.
The extension adds a small toolbar to the bottom of the Google Analytics interface. You can hide it so that it's out of the way. The extension looks at dimension data displayed in Google Analytics and if a mapping between the user_id in the locally stored CSV file and the dimension displayed in Google Analytics is found, the PII from the local CSV file is injected into the Google Analytics interface.
In our example, we have a Custom User ID dimension added, so we can add this as a secondary dimension to one of the reports.
Our CSV had columns:
user_id,display_name,email,company,country
We used user_id for the mapping, so the other columns are available for selection in a dropdown in the toolbar. Selecting any of these will display the mapping within the dimension columns in Google Analytics like so:
As the extension maps against any dimensions in the reports, it could lead to some false positives, so I've also added a toggle in the toolbar to switch the mapping off.
In upcoming releases, I'll consider injecting the mapping into different places in the Google Analytics interface.

The Civil Supplies Department discharges the important responsibilities of public
distribution, enforcement of market discipline and promotion of consumer awareness
and protection of their interest. In the 60s and 70s it won many accolades for
the pioneering achievements in the implementation of Universal Rationing System.
The Department of Civil Supplies functions under the Department of Food, Civil
Supplies and Consumer Affairs of the Government of Kerala.
Kerala has the privilege of having the best system of Public Distribution System
in the whole country. The system is evenly spread over the whole State without any
distinction between urban or rural. To ensure equitable distribution of the food
grains at a fairly low cost to all people especially to the weaker sections of the
population. There is a very good network of wholesale and retail outlets for the
distribution of rationed articles under the Public Distribution System.

This project was designed to display all the web development skills I had learned throughout the program, with no prescribed way as to what project or how I could satisfy the requirements.
I was required to write a Dev Diary to track progress and obstacles over a ten week quarter that later proved valuable, since I am writing this reflection more than 2 months after finishing the program. I encountered a few major problems while working on this project, primarily the API restricted data calls to a maximum of 5 per hour, and this made troubleshooting while adding JavaScript code tedious and difficult. I also was attempting various methods for how to add a specific image for a corresponding Vue file whenever a user visited it.
As mentioned above, the overall goal for this project was to create something that encompassed all of the material I had learned throughout the program. Those requirements are listed below:
I looked over a list of free to use third-party APIs that were made available to all classmates as well as Googling various other APIs to find one that interested me. I selected the Fun Translations API as it incorporated elements that I felt were make the project intesting and fun to a diverse audience. My research consisted mostly of using the API documentation in addition to referencing the Vue CLI documentation since there was an upgrade between quarters.
In summary, what I built was an online webapp that a user can use to select one of five available API text translators to translate any user submitted text.


Colors are specified using predefined color names, or RGB, HEX, HSL, RGBA, HSLA values.
Lorem ipsum... RGB, HEX, HSL, RGBA, HSLA
Color Values
In HTML, colors can also be specified using RGB values, HEX values, HSL values, RGBA values, and HSLA values:
Same as color name "Tomato":
Same as color name "Tomato", but 50% transparent:
rgb
Shades of gray are often defined using equal values for all the 3 light sources:
By using equal values for red, green, and blue, you will get different shades of gray.
HSL Value
hsl(hue, saturation, lightness) renk tonu, doymuşluk, parlaklık Hue is a degree on the color wheel from 0 to 360. 0 is red, 120 is green, and 240 is blue. Saturation is a percentage value, 0% means a shade of gray, and 100% is the full color. Lightness is also a percentage, 0% is black, 50% is neither light or dark, 100% is white
Saturation - doygunluk Saturation can be describe as the intensity of a color. 100% is pure color, no shades of gray 50% is 50% gray, but you can still see the color. 0% is completely gray, you can no longer see the color.
Lightness
With HSL colors, 0% lightness means black, and 100 lightness means white.
With HSL colors, shades of gray are made by setting the saturation to 0%, and adjusting the lightness according to how dark/light the gray color should be.
RGBA Value RGBA color values are an extension of RGB color values with an alpha channel - which specifies the opacity for a color. An RGBA color value is specified with: rgba(red, green, blue, alpha) The alpha parameter is a number between 0.0 (fully transparent) and 1.0 (not transparent at all):
You can make transparent colors by using the RGBA color value.
HSLA Value HSLA color values are an extension of HSL color values with an alpha channel - which specifies the opacity for a color. An HSLA color value is specified with: hsla(hue, saturation, lightness, alpha) The alpha parameter is a number between 0.0 (fully transparent) and 1.0 (not transparent at all):
You can make transparent colors by using the HSLA color value.


The program doconce
must be run to interpret the quiz format, translate
it to LaTeX, HTML, or other formats, and produce the Python representation
of the collection of quizzes in a document. Let the name of the
document with quiz specifications and optional text be myquiz.do.txt
.
Documents to play around with are pure_quiz.do.txt or
the present document.
A simple HTML rendering of quizzes is done by
Terminal> doconce format html myquiz
The result myquiz.html
can be loaded into a browser.
A more sophisticated rendering is offered if a Bootstrap HTML style is adopted,
Terminal> doconce format html myquiz --html_style=bootstrap
Other variations of this class of styles are bootswatch
, and
bootswatch_X
, where X
is the name of a Bootswatch style, e.g.,
journal
.
The Bootstrap-based styles have a striking red color for inline computer
code, which can be avoided by giving the option --html_code_style=inherit
(see the documentation of DocOnce and Bootstrap for details and examples).
By default, there is a horizontal rule enclosing each quiz in the HTML format.
This can be turned off by the option --quiz_horizontal_rule=off
.
By inserting !split
before headings in a DocOnce document, one can run
Terminal> doconce split_html myquiz.html
to create a multi-page document with navigation arrows. Bootstrap styles
will also have a Contents pull-down menu to the right in the top bar.
Without the split_html
command (and !split
instructions in the document),
all quizzes will be in one HTML page.
The prefix before a question is Question:
and before a choice is Choice X
,
where X
is a number. To set a different prefix, see the
--quiz_question_prefix
and --quiz_choice_prefix
commands
when running doconce format --help
.
The standard command to produce a LaTeX document is
Terminal> doconce format pdflatex myquiz \
--without_answers --without_solutions \
--latex_code_style=pyg
If desired, the correct answer to each quiz can be included by omitting
--without_answers
. Omitting --without_solutions
will print
the right answers and the available explanations below the quiz.
The next step is to compile the document:
Terminal> pdflatex -shell-escape myquiz
to produce a PDF myquiz.pdf
.
Here, we use the pyg
(Pygments, LaTeX package minted
) style
for code blocks, which requires the -shell-escape
option when running
pdflatex
.
A typical session for creating a Sphinx document is
Terminal> doconce format sphinx myquiz
Terminal> doconce split_rst myquiz
Terminal> doconce sphinx_dir dirname=sphinx theme=default myquiz
Terminal> python automake_sphinx.py
A disadvantage of Sphinx in a quiz context is that admonitions cannot contain quizzes. However, an advantage of Sphinx is that one can create RunestoneInteractive Sphinx books, which have nice browser support of quizzes. A RunestoneInteractive version is created by
Terminal> doconce format sphinx myquiz --runestone
Terminal> doconce split_rst myquiz
Terminal> doconce sphinx_dir dirname=sphinx theme=default myquiz
Terminal> python automake_sphinx.py --runestone

The ultimate goal of the Community Epidemic and Pandemic Preparedness Program (CP3), a program led by the International Federation of the Red Cross (IFRC), is to strengthen the ability of communities and civil society groups to prevent, detect, and respond to disease threats and play a central and significant role in assessing future risks.
Data Readiness is one priority and workstream within CP3. Through this workstream, we want national societies to be equipped to use quality and timely information to influence operations and planning; this is all with the goal of being able to respond effectively to disasters. CP3 relies on the methods and community engagement from the Missing Maps program to create base mapping data for many of the communities where CP3 is active.
Over the past several months, the CP3 team and the Guinean Red Cross Society (GRCS) mobilized around an intensive community mapping activity. This has been an multi-step process facilitated by key stakeholders including:
The three phases of community mapping are outlined below followed by the takeaway points of the project:
Staff and volunteers from the various organizations (most notably from the GRCS and GeoSynapse Guinée) came together and took part in mapathons and worked remotely to populate buildings and roads in Faranah, Guinea.
| # | Sub Prefectures Remote Mapped | Buildings | Roads (Kms) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Banian | 14,133 | 1,661.16 |
| 2 | Beindou | 6,071 | 486.24 |
| 3 | Faranah centre | 17,868 | 1,222.31 |
| 4 | Ghaleah et Tindo | 8,558 | 478.02 |
| 5 | Heremakono | 9,730 | 826.54 |
| 6 | Kobokoro | 3,912 | 452.29 |
| 7 | Marella | 1,009 | 123.22 |
| 8 | Passayah | 4,809 | 872.76 |
| 9 | Sandeniah | 3,102 | 843.52 |
| 10 | Songoyah | 4,127 | 453.75 |
| 11 | Tiro | 6,445 | 391.15 |
| Total | 79,764.00 | 7,810.96 |
After the remote mapping activity was complete, the American Red Cross, IFRC, and CP3 teams led a four-day training for the field data collection participants. The goal of this training was to equip CP3 and GRCS team members with technical skills necessary for a comprehensive data collection through data management workshops and data collection demo sessions.
During the training, participants were introduced to the Data Model that was structured for the collected points of interest to be brought into OSM.
At the end of this field data collection activity, the following features were mapped across all of Faranah prefecture.
| Feature Mapped | Total feature count in Faranah | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Number of sub-prefectures mapped | 11 |
| 2 | Communities mapped | 399 |
| 3 | Health Facilities | 55 |
| 4 | Administrative and community infrastructure | 106 |
| 5 | Security services | 33 |
| 6 | Market Places | 56 |
| 7 | Points of Entry (Border Crossing) | 24 |
| 8 | Sub branches of Guinea Red Cross across the prefecture of Faranah | 6 |
| 9 | Education Facilities | 220 |
| 10 | Water Facilities | 491 |
| 11 | Places of Worship | 373 |
| 12 | Guest Houses | 7 |
| 13 | Cemeteries | 160 |
| 14 | Communication Towers | 28 |
| 15 | Community Radios | 4 |
| 16 | Social Facilities | 87 |
In the next phase of this work, there was a scheduled community validation session where GRCS and the CP3 team will sit down with the community to discuss the data collected and any gaps that may exist within them. Unfortunately, this last step has been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. After this validation process takes place, the data will be uploaded into OSM for public consumption and usage. While we wait to meet with the community for this group validation session, data from the project can be found here.
This is not the first time a Missing Maps activity has taken place in Guinea. Missing Maps was involved with the West Africa Mapping Project that took place in 2016, after the Ebola crisis in the country. Here in this post are some valuable lessons learned from that previous community mapping work.
With this productive collaboration between the major stakeholders, the Guinean Red Cross Society and the Guinea/CP3 staff and volunteers learned how to create their own data in OSM both remotely and via training/data collection. The processes that teams learned in remote mapping, training and field data collection, allowed them to have insight into how mapping data was produced, uploaded, and downloaded from OSM (and other open-data platforms like HDX).
We hope this post demonstrates our community mapping workflow with other technical teams interested in adding a data collection or map component to their program.
Very recently, the GRCS offices have been creating contingency plans to address the COVID-19 response in Guinea. The dataset compiled and uploaded during this community mapping work allowed the headquarters teams to have a more up-to-date list of border crossing points (including international travel areas) and health facilities for Faranah, information which are vital to the current emergency planning and response efforts.
Guinea Red Cross, with all her 38 branches, continues to serve humanity in the territorial boundaries of the Republic of Guinea, and we are all very glad to support these efforts.


The Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver provides support for Java Platform, Enterprise Edition/JDBC 2.0 optional distributed transactions. JDBC connections obtained from the SQLServerXADataSource class can participate in standard distributed transaction processing environments such as Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) application servers.
The classes for the distributed transaction implementation are as follows:
| Class | Implements | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerXADataSource |
javax.sql.XADataSource |
The class factory for distributed connections. |
|
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerXAResource |
javax.transaction.xa.XAResource |
The resource adaptor for the transaction manager. |
Guidelines and Limitations when Using XA Transactions
The following list provides information about specific limitations and guidance when using XA transactions:
-
On Windows XP:
When you use XA transactions with SQL Server through the Microsoft SQL Server JDBC driver, you may notice that XA transactions might not work. This issue only applies when the SQL Server that is participating in the XA transaction is running on Windows XP. On the other hand, the client applications running on Windows XP connecting to a remote SQL Server that is not running on Windows XP can participate in XA transactions. For more information about how to resolve this issue, see a hotfix provided atWindows XP and XA Transactions .
-
On Windows Server 2003:
When you use XA transactions together with Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) on Windows Server 2003, you may notice that the XAResource.setTransactionTimeout method does not work. To resolve this issue, you must apply a hotfix provided atMSDTC and XA Transactions to each SQL Server machine that is participating in XA transactions. Without this fix the only valid timeout value is the default value of 0, meaning infinite timeout.
The following additional guidelines apply to tightly coupled transactions:
-
When you use XA transactions together with Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC), you may notice that the current version of MS DTC does not support tightly coupled XA branch behavior. For example, MS DTC has a one-to-one mapping between an XA branch transaction ID (XID) and an MS DTC transaction ID and the work that is performed by loosely coupled XA branches is isolated from one another.
The hotfix provided atMSDTC and Tightly Coupled Transactions enables the support for tightly coupled XA branches where multiple XA branches with same global transaction ID (GTRID) are mapped to a single MS DTC transaction ID. This support enables multiple tightly coupled XA branches to see one another's changes in the resource manager, such as SQL Server.
-
A SSTRANSTIGHTLYCPLD flag allows the applications to use the tightly coupled XA transactions, which have different XA branch transaction IDs (XIDs) but have the same global transaction ID (GTRID). In order to use that feature, you must set the SSTRANSTIGHTLYCPLD on the flags parameter of the XAResource.start method:
xaRes.start(xid, SQLServerXAResource.SSTRANSTIGHTLYCPLD);
Configuration Instructions
The following steps are required if you want to use XA data sources together with Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) for handling distributed transactions.
Running the MS DTC Service
The MS DTC service should be marked Automatic in Service Manager to make sure that it is running when the SQL Server service is started. To enable MS DTC for XA transactions, you must follow these steps:
On Windows XP and Windows Server 2003:
-
From Control Panel, open Administrative Tools, and then open Component Services. You can also click the Start button, click Run, type dcomcnfg in the Open box, and then press OK to open Component Services.
-
Expand Component Services, Computers and right-click My Computer, and then select Properties.
-
Click the MSDTC tab, and then click Security Configuration.
-
Select the Enable XA Transactions check box, and then click OK. This will cause a MS DTC service restart.
-
Click OK again to close the Properties dialog box, and then close Component Services.
-
Stop and then restart SQL Server to ensure that it syncs up with the MS DTC changes.
On Windows Vista:
-
Click the Start button, type dcomcnfg in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER to open Component Services. You can also type %windir%\system32\comexp.msc in the Start Search box to open Component Services.
-
Expand Component Services, Computers, My Computer, and then Distributed Transaction Coordinator.
-
Right-click Local DTC and then select Properties.
-
Click the Security tab on the Local DTC Properties dialog box.
-
Select the Enable XA Transactions check box, and then click OK. This will cause a MS DTC service restart.
-
Click OK again to close the Properties dialog box, and then close Component Services.
-
Stop and then restart SQL Server to make sure that it syncs up with the MS DTC changes.
Configuring the JDBC Distributed Transaction Components
You can configure the JDBC driver distributed transaction components by following these steps:
-
Copy the sqljdbc_xa.dll from the JDBC installation directory to the Binn directory of every SQL Server computer that will participate in distributed transactions.
Note: If you are using XA transactions with a 32-bit SQL Server, use the sqljdbc_xa.dll file in the x86 folder, even if the SQL Server is installed on a x64 processor. If you are using XA transactions with a 64-bit SQL Server on the x64 processor, use the sqljdbc_xa.dll file in the x64 folder. If you are using XA transactions with a 64-bit SQL Server on an Itanium processor, use the sqljdbc_xa.dll file in the IA64 folder. -
Execute the database script xa_install.sql on every SQL Server instance that will participate in distributed transactions. This script installs the extended stored procedures that are called by sqljdbc_xa.dll. These extended stored procedures implement distributed transaction and XA support for the Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver. You will need to run this script as an administrator of the SQL Server instance.

To grant permissions to a specific user to participate in distributed transactions with the JDBC driver, add the user to the SqlJDBCXAUser role.
You can configure only one version of the sqljdbc_xa.dll assembly on each SQL Server instance at a time. Applications may need to use different versions of the JDBC driver to connect to the same SQL Server instance by using the XA connection. In that case, sqljdbc_xa.dll, which comes with the newest JDBC driver, must be installed on the SQL Server instance.
There are three ways to verify the version of sqljdbc_xa.dll is currently installed on the SQL Server instance:
-
Open the LOG directory of SQL Server computer that will participate in distributed transactions. Select and open the SQL Server "ERRORLOG" file. Search for "Using 'SQLJDBC_XA.dll' version ..." phrase in the "ERRORLOG" file.
-
Open the Binn directory of SQL Server computer that will participate in distributed transactions.Select sqljdbc_xa.dll assembly.
-
On Windows Vista: Right-click sqljdbc_xa.dll and then select Properties. Then click the Details tab. The File Version field shows the version of sqljdbc_xa.dll that is currently installed on the SQL Server instance.
-
On Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server: Right-click sqljdbc_xa.dll and then select Properties. Next, click the Version tab. The File Version field shows the version of sqljdbc_xa.dll that is currently installed on the SQL Server instance.
-
On Windows Vista: Right-click sqljdbc_xa.dll and then select Properties. Then click the Details tab. The File Version field shows the version of sqljdbc_xa.dll that is currently installed on the SQL Server instance.
-
Set the logging functionality as shown in the code example in the next section. Search for "Server XA DLL version:..." phrase in the output log file.
Configuring the User-Defined Roles
To grant permissions to a specific user to participate in distributed transactions with the JDBC driver, add the user to the SqlJDBCXAUser role. For example, use the following Transact-SQL code to add a user named 'shelby' (SQL standard login user named 'shelby') to the SqlJDBCXAUser role:
USE master GO EXEC sp_grantdbaccess 'shelby', 'shelby' GO EXEC sp_addrolemember [SqlJDBCXAUser], 'shelby'
SQL user-defined roles are defined per database. To create your own role for security purposes, you will have to define the role in each database, and add users in a per database manner. The SqlJDBCXAUser role is strictly defined in the master database because it is used to grant access to the SQL JDBC extended stored procedures that reside in master. You will have to first grant individual users access to master, and then grant them access to the SqlJDBCXAUser role while you are logged into the master database.

Test example: Investigate influence of losses on DCPM motor
performance
Both motors are started with a voltage ramp applied to the
armature, causing the DC machines to start, and accelerating
inertias. Both machines are loading with a quadratic speed
dependent load torque.
The first machine dcpm1
uses default machine
parameters of model DC_PermanentMagnet, the second machine
dcpm2
is parametrized with additional losses:

The Five Share Questions
1. Do you have any kind of spiritual beliefs?
2. To you, who is Jesus?
3. Do you think there is a heaven or a hell?
4. If you died tonight, where would you go?
5. By the way, if what you were believing is not true, would you want to know?

Four deaths linked to sub-zero UK weather
by LBCFour people have died as a result of the freezing temperatures that hit the UK last night.
A homeless man and pensioner are understood to have succumbed to the cold, and two pedestrians died on freezing foggy roads in the early hours of this morning.
The homeless man, a rough sleeper known to friends as ‘elephant’ was found dead in a tent in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.
A body was found in the search for Helen Maider, 89, who went missing in the cold weather in East Dunbartonshire. She was last see alive at 6am.
Sergeant Adam Hookway previously said officers and her family were concerned due to the cold weather while Ms Maider has also "started to have issues with her memory".
A statement on Tuesday afternoon confirmed a body had been found during searches of Bishopbriggs but it had not been formally identified.
The statement said: "Police in East Dunbartonshire can confirm a body has been found in the search for missing woman Helen Maider in the Bishopbriggs area.
"Formal identification has yet to be carried out however her family has been informed and the death is not being treated as suspicious."
Temperatures fell across the country on Monday night with the mercury falling to minus 9.9C (14.2F) in Braemar in the north-east.
The Met Office said temperatures are expected to fall again overnight on Tuesday.
Earlier, a pedestrian was hit and thrown across the M4. One hour later, another walker was knocked down and killed on the A34 near Winchester.
Temperatures dropped to nearly minus 10C on Monday night - the coldest of the autumn so far.
According to the Met Office, the mercury fell to minus 9.9C (14.2F) in Braemar, north-east Scotland, on Monday night.
Nine of the 10 coldest locations overnight were north of the border, but the coldest location in England was Redesdale Camp in Northumberland, where the temperature was recorded at minus 7.1c (19.2F).
A yellow weather warning for dense and freezing fog was in place across large parts of England and eastern Wales on Tuesday morning.
During rush-hour, drivers from Brighton to Manchester had to contend with lower visibility and iced-up cars.
Meteorologist Grahame Madge said: "It's going to clear, but it might be stubborn to clear in some places, and then eager to re-form.
"We have weather warnings out until 11am (on Tuesday) but in some places it could persist more than that."
The cold spell has followed a period of persistent and heavy rain for parts of the UK, and the country has already seen more than two-thirds of its average November rainfall.
According to the Met Office, we have already had 68% of the UK's expected monthly rain, and Nottinghamshire has been the wettest county, having had 189% of its average November rainfall by the 17th.
Parts of the Midlands and Yorkshire suffered days of flooding after torrential rain earlier this month, and Sheffield has already had its wettest ever autumn, with 17.4in (440.8mm) of rainfall so far this season.
The previous record of 16.7in (425.2mm) was set in 2000.
On the other hand, western and northern Scotland have had a much drier month, and Shetland had only had 17% of its monthly rainfall by the same point.
