If your garbage disposal is unable to properly drain water, you may have blocked your drain. You can use this article to diagnose the problem, clean out the clog and reset the disposal. If none of these methods works, try a drain cleaner to clear the clog. If none of these methods work, you may need a plumber's help. If you can't afford the cost of a plumber, try a drain cleaning solution.
Identifying the cause of a clogged garbage disposal
Identifying the cause of a plugged garbage disposal is easy. You can see if there is food or a piece of plastic stuck to the drain. If so, you need to clean the obstruction. If you can't reach the clog, you can remove the discharge drain line or disposal trap. Run water through the disposal. Remove the clog. If that doesn't work, you can use a sink auger to remove the clog.
If the clog is preventing the drain from draining, try to flush the sink with hot water. The hot water will flush loose debris from the pipes. In the event that this doesn't work, try to perform a bigger flush. To do this, place a stopper over the disposal opening. Fill the sink with hot water and remove it quickly. This flush will clear the pipes and remove any remaining clog material.
The clog can also be the result of debris getting stuck in the waste line. The waste line can become coated with food and debris over time, resulting in a slow-draining disposal. If you notice a low humming sound from the disposal, you might be experiencing a clog in one area. Using a plunger can remove the stuck food. If a plunger is not enough, you may need to call a plumber to come to your home and remove the clog.
If the problem is the drainage pipe, then the garbage disposal is leaking into the base cabinet. In most cases, the garbage disposal unit is the culprit. If the garbage disposal is leaking water into the base cabinet, it means that there is a leak in the disposal body. To find the cause of this leak, check the pipes or flanges. These can also cause the disposal to back up into the sink and become unusable.
If the problem persists, a garbage disposal switch may be the problem. Make sure to check the switch before you do anything else to protect your appliance. If the switch itself is defective, you might need to buy a new one. However, if the clogged drain pipe is an easy fix, a new garbage disposal is likely the best solution. If you don't have a spare GFCI, consider investing in a new one.
Cleaning out a clog
If your garbage disposal is not draining properly, there are several solutions that you can try to clear the clog. One method involves running a second pot of boiling water through the drain and then pouring hot tap water into the sink. Be careful not to flush food waste down the sink or the drain trap, because this could create a new clog. You should also read your garbage disposal manual carefully to prevent clogs in the future.
If you cannot open your garbage disposal and find the obstructions, you can pour baking soda and vinegar into the sink. The baking soda will act as a natural cleaner and will fizz in the drain. Run hot water for a few minutes afterward and check for any foreign objects. If you are unable to see the foreign objects, you can use tongs or needle-nose pliers to remove them.
Using a plunger to unclog the drain may also help. If you are unable to remove the clog by hand, you may try running the disposal again and using a plunger to loosen the stuck debris. Once you've loosened the debris, turn the disposal on again and wait for the water to cool down. You should hear a low humming sound, which means the blades are clogged.
A few tips to keep in mind while cleaning out a garbage disposal clog are: first of all, never put your hands in the disposal. You may be tempted to use your hands, but this is a hazardous practice. Use tongs to retrieve objects and make sure that you are wearing thick gloves. You should also avoid using any chemicals because they may destroy the plastic parts of the disposal system.
Secondly, check your disposal's drain pipe to see if there's debris inside. When clogs are present, they can damage a garbage disposal. Proper maintenance is essential to prevent problems with the disposal. Using the garbage disposal regularly will prevent these problems and keep it working properly. If you don't use it on a regular basis, you might have to replace the drain pipe.
Resetting a clogged garbage disposal
To resolve the clogged garbage disposal, you must know the causes of the clog. To locate the obstruction, you can shine a flashlight into the drain. If you can see any obstruction, carefully remove it. Once the obstruction is removed, turn on the disposal and wait for a few minutes before running it again. If you are not able to resolve the clog after a few minutes, call a plumber for assistance. They can clear the pipe and unclog the drain. Additionally, they will answer any questions that you may have about the disposal or pipes.
The first step in resetting a clogged garbage disposal is to remove all of the food that is plugged in. The disposal will no longer drain if it is full. You can try using a plunger or a wooden broom handle to force the water out. Next, plug the disposal into an outlet underneath the sink and turn on the cold water faucet. Wait for about 15 minutes before you turn on the power again.
Before you begin resetting a clogged garbage disposal that does not drain, make sure that the power source has been shut off. If the disposal has a power cord, it may have come unplugged, or the breaker has tripped. If the power is off, you might need to call a plumber to fix it. They can determine if you can repair the unit or if the motor is fried and needs to be replaced.
If the problem persists, you may have an overheated disposal. If it is, give it time to cool down. If it still isn't draining, try pressing the reset button located on the bottom of the disposal. This button acts as a second circuit breaker. If the blades don't spin after the pause, there is a blockage. If you can hear a humming noise when the motor starts working again, you have a problem with your disposal.
In some cases, a broom stick may be sufficient to free the jammed impeller. It might be easier to use a broom stick than an Allen wrench. For more severe clogged disposals, an Allen wrench is necessary to free the impeller. You should also make sure to turn off the disposal while the water is off. Once the garbage disposal is off, insert the Allen wrench into the bottom of the disposal and turn it in both directions. If the broom stick is not enough, you should use a different tool.
Using a drain cleaner to clear a clog
A commercial drain cleaner is often necessary to clear a clog, but sometimes the blockage is too deep to remove by hand. In these cases, you can try a homemade solution. A mixture of baking soda and vinegar can be used to dissolve clogs. The mixture dissolves soap scum, gunk, and mildew. If you cannot find a ready-made chemical solution, you can buy one in a home improvement store.
A plunger is an effective home remedy for clearing clogs in kitchen sinks and toilets. Make sure to put it over the drainage points before using it. Next, you need to plunge it for at least 20 seconds. After the plunger reaches the blockage point, pull it straight up to create additional suction. If this solution doesn't work, you can try using a cable auger. This tool is long, flexible steel cable wound on a spool. Most cable augers have a 25-foot length and can clear clogs in household sinks and bathtubs.
A mixture of baking soda, vinegar, and hot water can be used to unclog stubborn sludge. Since these two substances contain acid and base, they react chemically with each other to dissolve a clog. To use the solution, pour half a cup of baking soda and a half-cup of white vinegar down the drain. Follow up with a glass of hot water to ensure the solution is working.
When using a drain cleaner to clear a sluggish or slow-flowing sink or toilet, be sure to read the label carefully. Some drain cleaners contain chemical agents which are caustic and oxidizing, and you may have to use a drain acid if your blockage is particularly severe or stubborn. It's important to remember that caustic drain cleaners contain lye to make grease thinner and dissolve organic matter.
Another option is to use a pipe snake. This instrument has the ability to push through and pull out stubborn food particles. It's important to remember to use the right technique – don't use force! Ultimately, you should always use hot water to clear the clog and avoid the dreaded chemical drain cleaners. And remember to use caution! It doesn't hurt to try these methods, but make sure to follow the instructions carefully.

I have some form List controls. They have items with "values" (database _id's) as well as "text". It's clear how to get the text but how do I get the _id's stored in the item values?
There is nothing can stop you from using int() function.
a = 0 //numeric var
s = '5552368' //string var
a = int(s); // a = 5552368
a = 100
s = 'text'
a = int(s) // a = 0
And now I read your question more attentively.. I understand, you want an Index of selected item in List plugin? It is [i]List.SelectedIndex[/i] expression.
No, I want to get the "value" in the "Select" control on the form. In the Html the select control looks like...
<option value="someDbaseId">Marks name text</option>
I can see in C2 List control how to get the text of the option (item), but not the value. Follow?
Sorry, man.. I don't even know how to do what you knows..
Sorry, man.. I don't even know how to do what you knows..
No problem
I've hacked around the issue with a couple functions wrapping an array. However I'd greatly prefer using a built in solution
So other than my hack mentioned above, this isn't possible in C2?
You can get form control List "Text" values easily but there is no C2 built-in way to get a List "Value"?!?
So... this is a feature or omission?
Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.
I think C2 just uses the index and not a value for the list items.
Looks like best you can do is get the index number of a selected text.
The work around would be to have the values associated with the list items stored and referenced to from somewhere else. (local vars, globals, instance vars)
You could even use the instance vars from the list itself.
Right now I have some functions that I use to set the Text attribs in the Lists objects and at the same time set an associated Value in an array. It's pretty amazing that there isn't a built in way to get the List.SelectedItemValue too. I'd love to know why not
Its likely an easy addition to the existing code, you could request for it perhaps.
Perhaps it has to do with that a lot of web developers use the text as value.

- 15 What is the initial drug of choice for SVT treatment?
When should I synchronize Cardiovert?
Synchronized cardioversion is used to treat other arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial flutter, and stable ventricular tachycardia when medications have failed to convert the rhythm, or when the patient is becoming unstable and the rhythm must be immediately terminated.
What rhythms do you Cardiovert?
The most common of these are atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter. Cardioversion is also used to correct ventricular tachycardia, which is a very fast, life-threatening heart rhythm that starts in the lower chambers of the heart (ventricles).
What are the indications for cardioversion?
Indications for electrical cardioversion include the following:
- Supraventricular tachycardia (atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia [AVNRT] and atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia [AVRT])
- Atrial fibrillation.
- Atrial flutter (types I and II)
- Ventricular tachycardia with pulse.
When should you Cardiovert SVT?
Stable but serious symptoms are indicated with the letter (S). Unstable patients with SVT and a pulse are always treated with synchronized cardioversion. The appropriate voltage for cardioverting SVT is 50-100 J. This is what AHA recommends and also SVT converts quite readily with 50-100 J.
What are the 3 shockable rhythms?
Shockable Rhythms: Ventricular Tachycardia, Ventricular Fibrillation, Supraventricular Tachycardia.
Why is asystole not shockable?
Pulseless electrical activity and asystole or flatlining (3 and 4), in contrast, are non–shockable, so they don't respond to defibrillation. These rhythms indicate that the heart muscle itself is dysfunctional; it has stopped listening to the orders to contract.
Why do you Cardiovert an R wave?
External cardioversion
Synchronization to an R or S wave prevents the delivery of a shock during the vulnerable period of cardiac repolarization when ventricular fibrillaiton (VF, vfib) can be induced.
Do you Cardiovert or defibrillate v tach?
Defibrillation – is the treatment for immediately life-threatening arrhythmias with which the patient does not have a pulse, ie ventricular fibrillation (VF) or pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT). Cardioversion – is any process that aims to convert an arrhythmia back to sinus rhythm.
What percentage of Cardioversions are successful?
The success rate of cardioversion with atrial fibrillation is generally better than 90 percent. Chances of success are lower when the atrial fibrillation has been present for more than several months or when the left atrium is very enlarged. In general, there are two ways that a cardioversion procedure for AF can fail.
Can AFIB turn into VFIB?
It shows an irregular wide-complex tachycardia with different degrees of QRS widening, consistent with preexcited atrial fibrillation with very fast conduction to the ventricles. At the end of the strip, QRS complexes become smaller and erratic as atrial fibrillation turns into ventricular fibrillation.
How many Cardioversions can I have?
To sum up, there is no real limit to the number of cardioversions that can be done.
When should you avoid synchronized shock?
Synchronization avoids the delivery of a LOW ENERGY shock during cardiac repolarization (t-wave). If the patient is pulseless, or if the patient is unstable and the defibrillator will not synchronize, use (HIGH ENERGY) unsynchronized cardioversion (defibrillation).
How do you know if you have supraventricular tachycardia?
Signs and symptoms of supraventricular tachycardia may include: A fluttering in your chest. Rapid heartbeat (palpitations) Shortness of breath.
Is SVT a shockable rhythm?
The two shockable rhythms are ventricular fibrillation (VF) and pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT) while the non–shockable rhythms include sinus rhythm (SR), supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), premature ventricualr contraction (PVC), atrial fibrilation (AF) and so on.
What is the initial drug of choice for SVT treatment?
Adenosine (Adenocard)
Adenosine is the first-line medical treatment for the termination of paroxysmal SVT. It is a short-acting agent that alters potassium conductance into cells and results in hyperpolarization of nodal cells.

Why UFC Jumped on the CBD Bandwagon
In 2018, two significant announcements changed the world's outlook on CBD.
First, the passing of the Farm Bill, allowing farmers to legally grow and distribute hemp, caused a substantial increase in CBD products in almost every wellness industry, including pet wellness.
That same year, the World Anti-Doping Agency removed CBD from its list of banned substances, and a major buzz spread through the athletic world. Until then, there had been a long-standing debate on how CBD might affect the performance of athletes. It seemed we were now going to learn once and for all what CBD had the power to do.
The first athlete group to jump in was the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), when they signed a deal with Aurora Cannabis. The fighters would serve as research subjects to help prove that CBD could treat pain management and muscle recovery.
Although the partnership was terminated in September 2020, the UFC still feels that CBD poses no safety or health consequences to competing athletes.
UFC bouts are grueling, with fighters often suffering severe injuries. To recover from the pain and muscle strain, they need effective, non-addictive pain management alternatives. And the UFC believes in the promise of CBD as such an alternative.
But why did the UFC decide on CBD?
CBD is hailed for its many health benefits, including its anti-inflammatory effects. Unlike THC, CBD is not intoxicating and does not give athletes a "high"; CBD does not alter an athlete's emotions or perceptions.
For UFC fighters, both the training sessions and the fights are harsh on the body. The results range from intense fatigue to, ironically, insomnia, and everything in between that might keep an athlete from achieving peak performance.
The Benefits of CBD to Athletes
Pain Management
For UFC fighters, pain is inevitable. Opioid-based pain killers have always been the go-to treatment. But now we know that, with prolonged use, these drugs cause addiction and dependence, and lead to many more problems than they correct.
CBD is not addictive. Its effects are minimal, at worst causing issues like oversleeping and dry mouth, but they also wear off fast.
How It Works
- Research shows that CBD activates receptors in the spine to numb the pain before it can reach the brain.
- The reduction of inflammation in the injury area causes sensory receptors to send fewer signals to the brain; it's the same way pain medication works.
Muscle Recovery
The body needs time to recover after the muscle strain that comes from vigorous training and fights. But with their hectic schedules, UFC fighters usually don't have time in between to let the muscles recover. For an athlete to be actively training for long hours, they will use pain medication. CBD replaces that medication.
How It Works
- CBD speeds up the recovery process by slowing down hyperactivity in the muscle ligaments that cause twitching after a workout or training.
For athletes, sleep is vital for regaining strength. Not only are fighters' bodies in a near-constant state of hyperactivity, but the pressure to perform can wreak mental havoc.
CBD is a great sleep inducer. It's been known to reduce anxiety and replace it with calm and relaxation. According to the Swiss Academic Journal, CBD causes improved sleep quality.
CBD can enhance or inhibit how body receptors transmit signals. When it comes to sleep, it works with the GABA receptor by changing its shape, causing it to amplify the receptor's natural calming effect. When you're calm and relaxed, you more often than not sleep better..
Brain Damage
Brain damage is not uncommon in professional fighters. The continuous and constant injuries to the head can eventually cause severe and chronic neurological damage. Most athletes are aware of the effects the fights have on their health, and they expect their post-career lives to be affected. In fact, 61% specifically worry about brain damage.
How It Works
- CBD is an option for treating and managing traumatic brain injuries through its noteworthy anti-inflammatory properties.
Recently, CBD has been receiving much fanfare in the athletic world. Across the world of mixed martial arts, more and more fighters are advocating for the use of CBD in their training and recovery regimens.
Nate Diaz is one such fighter. According to LowKickMMA.com, "Following his defeat to Conor McGregor at UFC 202, Diaz hit the headlines by appearing at a press conference hitting a CBD-infused vape pen."
CBD is helping fighters manage their pain and recover more quickly after workouts and bouts. Its calming effects help reduce stress and anxiety related to injuries and the subconscious need to perform.
With organizations like WADA removing CBD from their lists of banned substances, and high-profile athletes endorsing its use, it appears that CBD's future is bright in the athletic world.

Are you looking for details regarding Brass Triple Moon Pentacle Offering Bowl Manufacturers?
As a basic concept jewelry is any fashion thing worn to show off personal style. The items that are considered jewelry include necklaces brooches, earrings and bracelets, and Cufflinks. They're typically put on the body or clothes. The traditional definition of jewelry does not include plants and flowers. Jewellery is typically wearing it so that they look more appealing or attractive. Someone can appear stylish and unique through the use of different types of jewelry.
While the word "jewelry", as it is used, has numerous meanings. However, its primary reason for being a symbol of ornamentation. While the majority of jewelry is made of precious metals and gemstones it could also carry a more profound meaning. An example of such a accessory is this bracelet made of shells discovered in South Africa that dates back at least 75,000 years. There are a variety of other types of jewelrythat can be worn on many parts of the body.
While most jewelry is created out of precious metals and stones it is vital to know the source of the word. Jewelery comes of the Old French "jouel" and the Latin word jocale, which translates to "plaything."

In memory of four Michigan teenagers who won't be spending time with their families this Christmas and in sympathy with six other teenagers and a high school teacher traumatized for life, we offer a modest proposal:
Any parent or guardian who refuses to secure guns in the home, arguing that a locked and unloaded gun denies them quick access to thwart a home invasion or other mortal threat, should be required to implement an alternative strategy. We propose designating an adult in the household to keep vigil just inside the front door every night, a loaded pistol, rifle or shotgun lying across their lap, ready in an instant to blow away those dangerous would-be intruders they fear so much. Parents, of course, could trade off, each taking four-hour shifts sitting guard or alternating night shifts.

Some councils in England have been warned they risk running out of cash reserves if recent spending continues.
Analysis by the BBC has identified 11 authorities the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (Cipfa) said would have "fully exhausted" reserves within four years unless they topped them up.
The Local Government Association said councils faced "systemic underfunding".
The government said councils were responsible for managing their funds.
In guidance to councils Cipfa said: "Balancing the annual budget by drawing on general reserves may be viewed as a legitimate short-term option. However, it is not normally prudent for reserves to be deployed to finance recurrent expenditure."
Economist Neil Amin Smith said: "Either councils will have to stop providing some of the services that they currently provide, central government grant funding will have to be re-introduced, or councils will have to be given access to additional sources of revenue."
Councils have faced cuts to their government funding and rising demand for services such as social care, while MPs have warned children's services are at "breaking point".
Cash reserves – money held back for specific projects or emergencies, such as flooding – are seen as a measure of financial security.
The warning was based on the latest data available, comparing reserves as of March 2018 with March 2015.
Councillor Richard Watts from the Local Government Association said: "Some councils are facing a choice between using reserves to try and plug funding gaps or further cutting back local services in order to balance the books.
"This is unsustainable and does nothing to address the systemic underfunding that they face. Ongoing funding gaps are simply too big to be plugged by reserves."
A government spokesman said this year's local government finance settlement included extra funding for local services.
He said: "Councils are democratically elected bodies responsible for making their own financial decisions and managing their resources.
"All local authorities are required to hold sufficient unallocated reserves to meet unexpected financial risks."
He said local government had access to £46.4bn in 2019-20.

In the round-up: Carlos Sainz Jnr says he avoids thinking about the danger of Formula 1 because it might compromise his performance.
What they say
I honestly don't think about it. I might be right or wrong but I've never thought about danger in a Formula 1 car.
Yes you've thought, probably in a rainy race where you actually see nothing on the main straight of Hockenheim and you go 300 kilometres an hour seeing absolutely nothing, yes it's risky, and you probably back out a bit of the throttle.
But you don't think about it and about the consequences of a big accident because when you think about that, in my opinion, you will become slower. So I never thought about it.

Comment of the day
Is reviving the use of the 'unsportsmanlike driving' flag a change for the better?
I think it's a good idea, this can effectively warn a driver who's being over aggressive without disrupting the race order, it will also reduce these overused time penalties that for me detract from the sport.
For sure, if a driver do something blatantly aggressive, he can be punished straight with time penalty, but at least this flag can reduce the amount of silly penalties being handed for small infractions.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday to Stephen and F1Sauber!

These destinations can be made a day trip from Golem!
Golem is a small beautiful touristic destination. In summer, its population multiplies, because many tourists, especially nationals, spend the summer there. However, its popular aspects are the boulevard, the beach, and the restaurants. There aren't any old monuments or historic landmarks in Golem. For those who love history and you don't want to spend 3 hours time for visiting the aforementioned places, you can visit other landmarks in just a short drive away. Drive 20 minutes North and you can visit the beautiful Venetian Castle in Durrës. Drive 30 minutes South and explore the stunning Fortress of Bashtovë. Golem makes the perfect centre point to visit all the touristic locations.
Certainly, Golem has a wonderful sandy beach. The water remains shallow, far out from the beach, almost like a giant swimming pool. Perfect for families and small children. In the summer, there are lots of aquatic sports available on the beach such as jet skiing, speedboating, para-gliding, snorkelling, etc.
The Boulevard in Golem is an incredible place to walk up and down in the summer. Along the 650 meter walkway you'll find lots of beach bars, cafes, restaurants, games, fairground rides, ice cream, etc. It really comes alive at night time!

AI on the prize: competitions encourage artificial intelligence applications for naval use
Recent Department of Defense initiatives to foster rapid innovation and modernization have involved holding competitions between existing and potential defense contractors to develop technology for military use. Competitions allow small businesses to present and demonstrate their ideas in realistic scenarios and can eventually lead to production contracts.
Artificial intelligence and machine learning is an area that is receiving intensive attention from the Department of Defense due to the growing challenges of managing overwhelming amounts of data and making timely decisions. The challenge is made even more acute by the current sophisticated peer-to-peer competition with China and Russia. The current politico-military situations in Ukraine, the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea are scenarios in which AI/ML can potentially help decision makers. AI can have applications at the national level down to the tactical level. Technology can help not only with situational awareness, but also with forecasting – indications and warnings.
In a recent competition sponsored by the Department of Defense, a small company named BigBear.ai, headquartered in Columbia, Maryland, won the prize. The 12-team competition was an exercise in advanced naval technology from Project Overmatch AI, or ANTX.
Brian Frutchey, Chief Technology Officer of BigBear.ai, said the company adapted a program developed for the US military to the Navy, which "dealt with hybrid warfare, gray area conflict in Eastern Europe Is and wanted to find tools that could automate the understanding of all the different data they need to look at for the Hybrid Warfare environment.
It was no longer just a matter of "counting planes, tanks and soldiers", Frutchey said. "They need to look at economies, political relationships, people migration, cyber activity, all these new areas that the strategic analyst needs to be aware of and model in their anticipatory intelligence."
BigBear.ai built the Virtual Anticipation Network (VANE) – the weather vane – to indicate where the winds of war were blowing. Now Big Bear.ai's dominant product, VANE, funded by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations in Low-Intensity Conflict, was used by the company to win the $75,000 prize from the 'ANTX. BigBear.ai was one of 12 companies selected to enter the competition, which took place in the last half of 2021.
Frutchey said in ANTX that VANE is researching telemetry for ships and maritime aircraft, as well as weather, information environment, among other areas "that we've put together so we can inform when these things happen. occur with aircraft flying through the Taiwanese air defense zone [ADIZ]", including the events preceding and during the events of interest, such as the entry of Chinese aircraft into the ADIZ; air traffic rerouting; even press releases. Because indicator watching is automated, human analysts are able to handle more data "and with great agility, pivot to new situations faster than before."
He says what sets BigBear.ai apart "is that we've built machine learning that expects that data isn't the whole story. I think that's critical because, especially for our partners in defense and intelligence, you don't always have control over the data you're trying to analyze. There's always this uncertainty in the data where you have gaps and holes and inaccuracies and because of that, we have to use machine learning that assumes you're going to have these errors, these issues, and even more, you don't always measure what you want to measure.
VANE presents its analysis on a dashboard on a monitor for analysts to observe. A "heat map or density graph" shows areas with a lot of activity over a given time period.
"We also look at baseline behaviors," Frutchey said. "Analysts are concerned when this level crosses a certain threshold. In the first week of October, it rose to 56 [Chinese] one-day sorties at one time and they used strategic bombers in some of those sorties. This stuff is normal low level buzz, but I want to be alerted when the models predict that in a week, in a month, there will be above a certain threshold, or the rate of change is going to be significant. … We give them these alerts, and the user can, of course, then drill down into the alert and drill down into the forecast data. … So we were looking at aggressive activities in the South China Sea for the AI ANTX exercise.
"We also have scenario forecasts [that] allow us to assess courses of action," he said. "What if Russia invades Ukraine? What will this do to the price of Bitcoin? Or what would happen if, in the example of the AI ANTX, we asked the question, and if we organized a naval exercise in the Luzon Strait? What would that do to Chinese behavior in the South China Sea? If we were to go with an aircraft carrier into the Luzon Strait and have a little naval exercise, what would that do to behaviors? And so we can run these simulations and then we can show the user, this is how the world would change in a month if we were to run this exercise next week.
VANE is scalable, Frutchey said. "Vane is designed to elastically scale into the cloud as large as needed. That's actually one of the great things about our platform is that it's completely serverless, which means that it's not like it's a monolithic application which is a bunch of servers consuming resources all day long it's a set of functions and since the clients need these functions the system is designed to retrieve resources from the cloud, spin them up to do the necessary work, and then turn them off when the work is done. Our systems process terabytes of data to create these models on a global scale."
Frutchey said Overmatch ANTX's win shows the company's prescriptive analytics are appropriate for operational and strategic purposes.
"We are starting to talk to program offices for major command and control systems, [such as] the Global Maritime Command and Control System," he said.
Match the best of breed
AI is also applied at a tactical level. Draper, a company known for building ballistic missile guidance systems, entered a competition last summer held by the Crane division of the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Crane, Indiana. The price challenge was to determine the feasibility of taking autonomy software and implementing it on another organization's hardware.
"I think what the government was trying to learn is how difficult it is to separate these two [software and hardware]said Drew Mitchell, associate director of defense systems at Draper and general manager of Draper's office in Tampa, Florida. "That way I can match the best software with the best hardware. Usually it's not the same when the company delivers that end product to the government. And it's also very expensive. So they're trying to find a way to cut costs on some of these standalone platforms. »
The prize challenge has been divided into three phases. During Phase 1, Draper, which had a lot of experience developing platform-independent software, submitted a white paper that was accepted along with those of 20 other companies. Phase 2 was a simulated exercise that involved loading autonomy algorithms into a small quadcopter unmanned aerial system and navigating it inside a building, mapping the interior and identifying objects in the building, all without the aid of GPS.
Five competitors made it to Phase 3, which involved a live demonstration of the Phase 2 scenario using a Hydronalix quadrotor drone into which their respective software was loaded.
"It was completely self-contained, so you give the drone some sort of basic instruction, basically fly forward and then it takes over from there," Mitchell said. "It senses the environment, and it does that through cameras, and it uses the same camera to perform the navigation algorithm using a vision-based navigation system. It uses the same camera to collect an environment map or generate an environment map. Much of this is very CPU intensive. In a small package, like a small quadcopter drone not much bigger than a book, it doesn't there aren't many processors available out there to do all that.
Draper used vision-assisted navigation algorithms that he used in his other programs.
"We used what's called visual inertial odometry," Mitchell said. "It's very similar to how the human eye and brain works in terms of referencing objects as you see them and then as you move around your brain is always calculating, oh I saw that dot and now the point is three feet away from me as I move closer to him, from that point he is now two feet away from me, and from there you can infer a lot of direction. very accurate but it's accurate enough to help the IMU [inertial measuring unit] on board. This helps the IMU, so the IMU does not drift widely.
"The predominant systems today use GPS to assist this inertial unit," Mitchell explained. "The GPS gives it a position, so it knows, okay, I see this point, then I move again, I see this point, I know where I am. But if you're inside, the GPS doesn't work and the big push within the MoD is to do things without GPS because they know that in a future conflict that's probably going to be one of the first things our adversaries pull off. vision, you can get clearly decent navigational accuracy in a very small package and do it completely on its own.
"We were able to show that with very little time and resources and a very rudimentary hardware platform that the government provided us, we were able to navigate inside a building without GPS," he said. he declares. "We were able to identify objects. We were able to map certain parts of an environment. Of course, this was not optimal. The places we created on our own were much better than what we had developed through this process, but we helped the government understand that it was possible to do it.
Draper came second in the contest, with EPISCI coming in first.

State Director Ronda Wiggers reports from Helena on the legislative and political week ending January 30
- SB 65 Revise Civil Liability Laws – the bill to protect businesses from Covid liability claims – passed out of House Business and Labor on a party-line vote and will be debated on the House floor on Monday, February 1. It does have amendments, so it will need to go back to the Senate for approval prior to heading to Gov. Greg Gianforte's desk. This is the bill the governor has requested be passed to protect Montana businesses from frivolous lawsuits concerning COVID claims. NFIB is supporting this legislation.
- HB 158 Create Study Commission to review COVID-19 statute and rule suspensions – was TABLED in House State Administration Committee.
- SB 118 Revise laws relating to false statements to employers and Workers' Compensation – This bill says that if a new employee lies about existing health conditions that are relevant for the work they are being hired for, you and your workers' compensation policy will not be liable for benefits. As you likely know, once you have made a conditional offer for employment, you are allowed to screen for existing health issues that would prohibit them from doing the work for which they are being hired. If they provide false information and then attempt to collect for an injury, the claim will be denied. After a good hearing on Tuesday, this bill passed out of Senate Business and Labor on a party-line vote. NFIB supports this legislation.
- SB 132 Require accommodations to employer-mandated vaccinations to be uniformly offered – the bill states that if an employer requires vaccinations but offers religious or health exemptions, they must allow those exemptions for all employees regardless of religion or health. NFIB will monitor this legislation. This bill passed out of the Judiciary Committee and will be debated on the Senate floor on Monday, February 1.
- HB 198 Revise Workers' Compensation death-benefit law – Currently, if an employee dies on the job, workers' compensation pays for the funeral costs, up to $4,000. As this does not cover the average cost, this bill would increase that to "up to $10,000" and adjust it for inflation in the future. The Montana State Fund has indicated that this will be such a minor increase that it will not affect the rates. The only opponents didn't like the inflationary factor. An amendment has been offered to remove that, but the committee has not yet taken any action. NFIB supported this bill.
- HB 187 Provide for local option sales tax – was TABLED in House Tax after a very short hearing.
Coming Up This Week
Although we have a few bills to work on getting through the process and visiting with legislators about bills coming soon, there are no hearings for NFIB bills scheduled this week.
Bills of Interest to Watch
- HB 228 Establish family medical leave insurance – this is identical to the bill that was brought forward last session. It would require employers to pay a 1% payroll tax into a new fund that would then pay benefits for family and medical leave. However, those payments are not guaranteed to the employee and would only be paid out until the fund ran out of money. The bill was assigned to Health and Human Services and was then reassigned to Business and Labor. No hearing has been set. NFIB will oppose this added cost of doing business.
- HB 251 Right to Work – has been introduced and scheduled for hearing in House Business and Labor on February 11.
- HB 254 Revise Wrongful Discharge act – the state chamber of commerce put together a group to address problems with this act without creating a situation where we are back to having the Supreme Court of Montana decide every fired-employee case. The bill:
- increases the probationary period from six months to 12 months
- adds "the employee's material or repeated violation of an express provision of the employer's written personnel policies" as a reason to dismiss for good cause
- adds being absent from work for more than five days without explanation as cause
- and further limits the amount of damages a dismissed employee can receive.
The bill is not yet scheduled for a hearing.
- Governor Gianforte has also released his "Montana Comeback Plan" that includes:
- lowering the personal income tax rate
- doubling the amount of the exemption to business equipment tax
- changing the way we tax corporations in Montana
- removing the sale of employee-owned stock from capital gains tax.
- SB 159 lowers the Montana personal income tax rate from 6.9% to 6.75% There will be an accompanying "trigger" bill that will continue to lower the rate based on our ending fund balance. It appears that we may be able to lower it to 6.5% once the Legislature passes the budget this session and then continue to lower the rate until we get below 5% (LC 662)
- LC 1158 increases the exemption on business equipment taxes from the current $100,000 to $200,000 – this will be introduced in the House. It is estimated that this will remove another 4,000 Montana small businesses from the business equipment tax rolls. Montana adjusts property tax law and calculations at the state level, but the tax primarily funds local government. Often when the Legislature "gives" a tax break, the local government is forced to increase taxes to cover the loss. This bill backfills local government to keep that from happening.
- HB 252 creates a non-refundable employer tax credit for employer-paid trades education. The program does not need to be through a College of Technology nor approved by any state agency. Simply, the employer pays for an employee to get trade/technical training and can receive a tax credit for 50% of the cost, up to $2,000 per employee with a cap of $25,000 per business. It can even cover a week of continuing education or product-specific training. There is a list of 26 trades that can use this credit.
The other two bills are more aimed at bringing in large employers – or taking small business to big business! One will exempt from capital gains tax the sale of employee-owned stock; the other deals with moving from the apportionment method of taxing multi-state corporations to the sales-only method. Montana is one of only a few states that still attempts to apportion within our borders.
As always, you can track all the bills that the NFIB is following at this link.

I initially used the suggestion from Kyle about manually updating the ToolsVersion value to "4.0" in the isproj file to fix a build issue (TFS 2012). However, as Kyle pointed out "but you may have to [change the ToolsVersion constantly] ... until a patch" is available. After fixing this 3 days in a row for our release builds, I needed to find a more permanent solution. The following work-around worked for me; hopefully it will work for others too: - Notes: A.) Tested using TFS2012 on 64-bit Win2008R2 machine; I think that this will work for TFS2010 too, but don't have one to test it on. B.) All of my projects can use the ToolsVersion 4.0 so this is safe for me; that might not be the case for your solution - your mileage might vary (YMMV) - Make sure that your project file has ToolsVersion="3.5" at the top - Make sure that your latest build failed for the ToolsVersion 3.5 issue - Open your TFS Build Definition - Go to Process tab - Expand #3 Advanced - Go to the MSBuild Arguments - Put in the following (can also be abbreviated /tv, but I like using the full word to avoid any confusion): /toolsversion:4.0 - Queue up a new build - This time it should succeed (or at least get beyond the ToolsVersion 3.5 error message) ...

Morrisons' brand renaissance gathers speed after three consecutive quarters of sales growth
It still has a long way to go but the renaissance of Morrisons' brand is well and truly underway after the supermarket reported its third consecutive quarter of like-for-like growth.
Morrisons brand renaissance gathers speed after three consecutive quarters of sales growth.
Price cuts, better customer insights, strategic partnerships with the likes of Amazon and Ocado helped push like-for-like sales up 2 per cent in its second quarter, up from 0.7 per cent in the prior period. It may still be losing market share – as seen by it being usurped by the combined total share of Aldi and Lidl – but this is due in part to the decision to shutter around 30 stores and sell a loss-making convenience chain.
Indeed, its quarterly performance shows how much pace has gathered behind the business in the first half of the year, a shift made clearer by the fact that it posted a rise in that period for the first time in four years.
The supermarket's return to its roots of low prices, good value and fresh food is finally helping it fight back against the discounters following the struggles of previous years. Sales are up, but against the backdrop of intense competition, tighter margins and lower returns on capital, many observers are yet to be convinced that there is enough of a reason for shoppers to keep coming back to Morrisons stores. Analysts remain wary of the long-term potential of Morrisons' quiet revolution, according to a Reuters report, with many believing there is still room for improvement.
Naysaysers point to a looming price war, observing that chief executive David Potts will need to commit even further to his back to retail basics approach, particularly when it comes to lowering prices.
"The key for Morrisons going forward is to clearly differentiate from the immediate competition," said Danielle Pinnington, managing director at shopper research agency Shoppercentric. "Price alone won't work, so a looking at the benefits of shopping at Morrisons from the shopper perspective, and highlighting those virtues could better support differentiation."
Potts, who replaced Dalton Philips last February, appears to be of the same mind, claiming that the "turnaround opportunity is in our hands".
"We are pleased with the positive like-for-like sales and 11 per cent underlying profit growth in the first half. Our priorities remain unchanged. We have made improvements to the shopping trip for customers and we plan to do more."
Part of the progression will undoubtedly come from the marketing for the retailer, which underwent an overhaul at the turn of the year when Publicis was brought in. Morrisons' marketing had arguably been more functional in the past whereas now there's a willingness to trumpet the emotional connection of food and the connection that forges with the retailer. Not much of the new approach has been seen to date, save for a new campaign and logo, but Morrisons will be hoping it has enough pull to win shoppers over during the crucial festive period, which is a matter of weeks away.
Future investments will likely include digital, an area that Morrisons has traditionally been the slowest of the big four supermarkets to embrace. A deal it struck with Amazon in February should help boost volume sales and consequently profitability given the online retail giant's own charge on London's grocery sector, an area where Morrisons has a limited presence and is dominated by Tesco and Sainsbury's.
Morrisons is also apparently benefiting from its own belated move online through a partnership with Ocado, which was renegotiated earlier this year and will expand the supermarket's home delivery service. Potts singled it out as one of the "strategic and operational highlights" of the year to date.
One cloud on the horizon for Morrisons and its peers is the threat of Brexit on the economy. Analysts are split on how this is playing out and Potts admitted it was still too early about the referendum result. Since the vote he confirmed that it has had "no negative impact on customer sentiment or customer behaviour".
"The beleaguered retailer is finally heading in the right direction, but there is still a long way to go," said John Ibbotson, director of the retail consultancy Retail Vision. As the smallest of the Big Four, Morrisons will be sorely tested by the looming price war with the sector's deep-pocketed behemoths…. "The brand's current campaign is entitled 'Morrisons Makes It', and on this evidence it might just make it after all."

NCS3203: Law and Ethics in Health
Internal Code:
1IICC Assessment 2 – case study analysis & Assignment brief supplementary examination The case study: Jo is a 46year old female who attended the rural accident and emergency department complaining of upper abdominal pain with her partner. Jo was initially triaged by the registered nurse (RN), she had her vital signs and a pain score completed.
Jo's vital signs were recorded her temperature was 37.2, pulse 96, respirations 16, BP 136/86 and her pain score was six. Jo also complained of nausea and abdominal bloating. Jo told the nurse that she had been taking Mylanta for the past year for indigestion
. Additionally she had a urine sample tested by the RN and this had no abnormalities. Hence, it was considered by the RN that Jo should be seen immediately for assessment by the doctor. It was a busy night in the rural emergency centre as, there had been a motor cycle road traffic accident.
The driver of the motor cycle had obtained significant leg and chest injuries. Hence, Jo was kept waiting. Jo was also aware of this accident and did not want to bother anyone as, they appeared to be very busy as, well as being short of staff. Despite the department being busy the RN did manage to intermittently assess Jo.
However, Jo was getting increasing nausea due to her pain levels. Jo vomited dark coffee ground fluid two hours after her admission to the Ed department. The RN checked Jo's observations and her pulse was rising and her BP falling and notified the doctor of Jo's condition. The doctor then got a more senior doctor to assess Jo.
Jo also had an intravenous line inserted by the Dr, a full blood count and group and hold. Jo was prescribed Pethidine 100mg and Maxolon 10mg by the Dr for her pain and nausea. This pain relief made Jo drowsy and she vomited coffee ground fluid again.
Jo's vital signs were continued by the nurse via the monitor. Jo was prepared for theatre following consent for an emergency endoscopy. Within theatre the anaesthetist encountered difficulty maintaining Jo's saturations in theatre during the endoscopy procedure. Jo was transferred post endoscopy to the high dependency unit within a regional facility.
The anaesthetist perceived that Jo had aspirated whilst vomiting in the ward prior to the procedure. Assignment brief:
The assignment brief is structured under the same headings as the marking rubric, please consider both documents carefully as you construct your essay.
You need to consider:
- The legal and ethical concerns that the situation in the case study raises.
- Apply all the
unit content throughout the essay.
- The possible actions (or inactions/omissions) that could be taken and the implications of those actions (or omissions).
- You
do not
need to provide the 'right' answers, what you will be assessed on is your ability to determine the implications of different actions or inactions from a legal and ethical perspective.
- Think of the possible courses of action, and inaction that could be taken, and then consider, do any ethical theories support (or not) the actions that you discuss?
- Which ethical principles, doctrines or concepts apply to the actions/inactions put forward and if so, how?
- Do any of the ethical principles conflict with each other or with the law?
- Which torts or other legal concerns apply to your suggested actions/inactions?
- Here you will be assessed on your ability form a logical piece of work that contains an introduction, the main body of the work and a conclusion.
- There is no need for headings, the paper should flow in one long sequence.
- You need to address the possible actions / inactions in a logical piece of writing that shows the possible implications of these two different pathways of care / omission of care.
- The main part of the assessment is that each of those areas (ethics and law) contains appropriate material.
- Your
should inform the reader of the main content of the essay.
- The
main body
should contain a logical and cohesive development of ideas and your ability to sustain logical arguments will be assessed.
- Your
should provide a summation of the key points of the work.
