In most of the repair jobs that we do, you need to have some spare pieces of carpets available so that the assignment is expedited, in the event that you do not have an extra piece then we will be able to work on your task using material hived off from beneath the furnishings.
In the event that any joins of the carpet appear to be split, and in some cases if your carpet is unstrapped from the metal holder under the door then we can work on the seams that are split through having them mended by way of un-seaming the affected part open before re-seaming them up again to have the problem fixed.
All those carpets that have drifted from door bars shall be repaired by way of stretching and then fitting them with wide door bars.

Posted by: denisbuchwald | March 20, 2006

My hot water tank burst this weekend. Just inside the tank on the hot side of things there was a lot of corrosion, which led to a failure causing a pool of water to form in my basement bathroom/laundry room. When I returned home from my hockey game I heard the sound of the water alarm. I rushed into the basement, saw the water and took off my shoes and socks before entering to find the source.
It was nice and warm on the feet actually. Ams sped over to pick up her dads Wet/dry vac. After the water was shut off, it took me about 2 hours to suck up all the water and dirt. That was Saturday night. Fortunatly the water was contained in the low rooms and only a little bit of carpet became wet.
It was still very damp and smelled a bit musty but was fairly dry by Sunday night.

The old tank was installed in 94, a 12-year-old tank. The new 2006 tank was finally installed Monday morning. Lets hope it’s good for 12 years and that I am at home when it fails. 12 years from now I’ll rent a whole bunch of movies to keep me occupied while I wait for this tank to go.
Lately I have been flooded with water problems and feeling a bit defeated against the water. You can’t accuse me of having Dry humour right.

Now can you figure out what the title means!

  1. Frack You Hot Water Tank – Now, Deny, what TV series has innovated the replacement of f$%k with frack?

  2. frackin Battlestar Galatica thats who…

  3. Have you seen the last episode for season 2 yet?!?

  4. This happend to Rose, and I in our first apartment that we lived in remember, that sound sucks. I was sleeping at the time, and I figured it was just someone in an other apartment fluching the toilet alot.

    My next hot water taking is going to be tankless, cost a little more, but saves tons in heating cost over the years. You only heat water as you need it. Makes sense to me.

    You also would think that someone would figure out a way to test to see if you water tank rusted out and have it shut off automatically.

    And in the theme of Scott Mac question. Only 12 more yars til you need to worry about this every again.

  5. No doubt tankless would be cool. I would go with a gas tankless as I don’t like using hydro for heating anything. Acually, my post on the hot water situation is generating some google ads related to tankless Water heaters. There are lots of companies and models to choose from.

Domestic Violence Course

For Students, Counselors and Agencies:

Domestic Violence Course
by Dennis Fitzpatrick

This monumental work of 920 slides, 60 edited videos (2+ per class) in 26 classes was developed by Dennis Fitzpatrick over the last 12 years to help court mandated Domestic Violence offenders learn new skills.

Individuals:  Some courts will permit a person to take a course online.  We will supply you with the necessary documents to submit to the court for approval. (Some states do not approve of Domestic Violence online courses.)  Our questions are not only True/False but are thought questions that require email correspondence between the student and one of our certified male and female counselors.  The cost of our online course is $35 an hour for each hour required by the court.  For example, an 8 hour course would cost $280 while a 2 hour course would cost only $70.

Agencies: A good PowerPoint projector (3,000 lumens) costs less than $300.  A large screen TV costs $500 or more.  Also, the projector is not limited in screen size like a TV.  Try the first few classes at no charge.

Students only retain 10% of material from lectures but 65% from visuals (Dept. of Labor Study).  Finally an effective visual package is available.  It contains the keys to change with 40 Self-Evaluation Quizzes and Drill  Fitzpatrick also holds workshops and trains counselors.

Watch the following video on the Domestic Violence Course (5:38)

There are 20 Advantages of the PPT class.  Here are the main ones:
  • 65% retention rate by visual and oral means over 10% oral only presentations.  (OSHA US Dept. of Labor Outreach Training Study, 1996)
  • 81% (visuals and kinesthetics) are not being effectively taught, only orals.
  • Images are processed 60,000 times faster than text (Stohlman, 2009, 2010)
  • Students like visuals better: 74% approval went to 98% (Coohill, Penn State, 2010).  Watching videos is considered fun, sadly, reading is not today.  Approximately 20% of Domestic Violence clients are reading impaired.
  • Counselors are teaching uniform approaches in all classes
  • It can take 11 repetitions to learn a new idea.  Review of skills is organized.
  • No drills=No skills.  40 Drills and Self Evaluation Quizzes featured.
  • Printed books not used.  Attention should be on the screen and the counselors.  Clients who want copies can download them for free or counselors can print out requested drills, quizzes or main slides from the free 232 page online PDF.
  • No hunting for Videos or DVDs, then cueing them. Just push a button.  The PowerPoint presentation features 26 classes with 60 Videos (2+ per class) and 920 slides.
  • No hunting for follow up video questions.
  • No hunting for Drills or a Quiz on Jealousy, for example.
  • Can you remember more than 5 provocative beliefs about Domestic Violence?  There are at least 18.
  • Can you remember which skills you reviewed lately and which you did not review?  How long has it been since you reviewed Fair Fight Negotiation?
  • Incorporate your favorite materials in the slides. Ask for a quote.
  • Introverts participate equally with extroverts due to drill rotation.
  • 5 Discussion Topics included for each class.
  • There are comments below each of the 920 slides on how the author, Dennis Fitzpatrick, teaches that slide.
  • There is a 3 page short description of the content of each of the 26 classes.
  • There is also a free Log available which lists the 26 classes with their videos, special features, self evaluation Quizzes and other material.
  • PowerPoint teaches more skills and material effortlessly in half the time.
  • Not boring like a lecture.
  • Visuals keep the class interesting.
  • No matter which class I go to, there is consistency in material.
  • I learn something each time.
  • I can go to the website and download material I like for free.
  • I do not have to buy an expensive book.
  • The drills help me to see where I am at in relation to the topic.
  • The class is organized. I am not wasting my time.
  • The organized reviews help me to learn new skills.
  • I like the jokes I can take home to my children.
  • I like the discussion topics.

Privacy notices

How we may use your information - the personal information we hold about you, how we use it, and your rights, including those about accessing your records.

The new Data Protection Act 2018 and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into force on 25 May 2018 gives you the right to be informed about any personal information we may hold about you.

Details of the information our services may hold about you can be found in our privacy notices.

We also have a website privacy policy and a cookie policy.

Privacy notice information

We may use your personal information to carry out our duties and deliver services.

We decide why, what and how personal information is used and ensure it is held securely. This means we are a ‘data controller’ under the new data protection legislation.

Why we collect and use personal information

We deliver a range of services that we are either legally required to, or able to do, and undertake a number of public tasks.

We’ll use your information to:

  • provide, plan and manage our services
  • carry out our regulatory, licensing and enforcement roles
  • carry out any other tasks which we have to do by law
  • make and take payments and grants and spot fraud
  • listen to your ideas about our services
  • tell you about our services

We can only use your personal information if we have a legal basis for doing so. The legal basis will be recorded on the relevant service area privacy notice.

Sometimes we use personal information that is considered sensitive under the legislation, such as your ethnicity or health condition, which will require extra conditions to be in place before it can be used. We can only use this type of personal data if we can meet one of the conditions and this information will be recorded on the relevant privacy notice.

Please visit the Information Commissioner's Office legal basis for processing personal data and conditions for processing special categories (sensitive) of personal data for more information.

If we're using your ‘consent’ as our legal basis to use your information you'll always be given the opportunity to make a positive statement of your consent to use it for a specific purpose, informed that you can withdraw that consent at any time, and given a contact name who can action your request to withdraw consent.

Please visit the Information Commissioner's Office consent information.

Who we share your information with

In certain circumstances, there will be lawful reasons to share your personal information with external agencies. The service area privacy notices have details of these organisations.

We use a range of organisations to either store personal information or help deliver our services to you. Where we have these arrangements there is always an agreement in place to make sure that the organisation complies with data protection law.

We’ll often have completed a privacy impact assessment (PIA) before we share personal information to make sure we protect your privacy and comply with the law.

Sometimes we have a legal duty to provide personal information to other organisations. This is often because we need to give that information to courts, including:

  • if we take a child into care
  • if the court orders that we provide the information
  • if someone is taken into care under mental health law

We may also share your personal information when we decide there’s a lawful reason that’s more important than protecting your privacy. This does not happen often, but we may share your information:

  • in order to find and stop crime and fraud, or if there are serious risks to the public, our staff or to other professionals
  • to protect a child
  • to protect adults who are thought to be at risk, for example if they are frail, confused or cannot understand what is happening to them

For all of these reasons, the risk must be serious before we can override your right to privacy.

If we’re worried about your physical safety or feel we need to take action to protect you from being harmed in other ways, we’ll discuss this with you and, if possible, get your permission to tell others about your situation before doing so.

We may still share your information if we believe the risk to yourself or others is serious enough.

There may also be rare occasions when the risk to yourself or others is so great that we need to share your information straight away without consulting you.

If this is the case, we’ll make sure that we record what information we share and our reasons for doing so. We’ll let you know what we’ve done and why if we think it is safe to do so.

We'll only use your personal information if we need to. Where possible we'll remove details that identify you from data before using it. Or if that is not possible, only use the minimum amount of your personal data necessary to a complete a task.

If we use your personal information for research and analysis, we’ll always remove details that identify you from the information or use a different name against your information unless you’ve agreed that your personal information can be used for that research.

We do not sell your personal information to anyone else.

What your rights are over your information

You have the following rights in regard to your personal information, you can request to:

  • access copies any records we hold about you
  • have any information we hold about you corrected
  • have any information we hold about you deleted or destroyed
  • restrict how information we hold about you can be used or shared
  • object to information about your you being held
  • have any information we hold about you transferred to a third party
  • challenge decisions relating to you made using automated decision making and profiling (currently we have no services that use automated decision making or profiling for decision making)

There are forms to help you if you want to make a request to exercise individual rights under GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 .

There are reasons why we may not be able to comply with your request or we may only be able to do so partially. For example, when we are required to hold your personal information by law to perform a public task we may not be able to delete or destroy it.

For more detailed advice on your rights visit the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

How we keep your information secure

All personal information we record is stored securely and in accordance with the new Data Protection Act 2018 and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into force on 25 May 2018.

Most of the information we hold about you is held on secure internal systems. The rest is held on secure third party systems or with secure information storage companies where we have carried out checks to ensure they are secure and have contracts in place which detail their data protection obligations.

Although the majority of personal information we hold is stored on systems in the EU, as previously mentioned most of it is held on our secure internal systems, there may be some occasions when your information may leave the EU, either in order to transfer it to another organisation or be stored on a system outside of the EU.

We will have additional protections on your information if it leaves the EU, ranging from secure ways of transferring information to ensuring we have a robust contract in place with the third party involved and we will always follow the guidance from the ICO.

In order to provide you with assurance that we will hold your personal information securely we achieved the ISO 27001 Information Security Management accreditation. This is an internationally recognised information security standard, which is externally audited on a regular basis to ensure we comply. We also meet NHS information management standards through its NHS Information Governance Toolkit accreditation.

Find out more about our information security policies, and ISO accreditation and related guidance.

How long we keep your information

We do not, ordinarily, keep your personal information indefinitely. The length of time we keep personal information varies depending upon why we collected the information and any rules relating to keeping it. If there are no specific rules we may keep personal information for shorter periods.

For more information on the length of time we keep your personal information, please see our records retention schedules.

Who to contact about the information we hold about you

If you have any queries, concerns or complaints, relating to you, about how we obtain, use, store or share your personal information, or if you wish to make a request relating to your individual rights under the new legislation, please contact us:

Draw a Rally Car Using Simple Brush Techniques in Photoshop

In this tutorial, we will explain how to draw a rally car in Photoshop using basic tools. Let's get started!

Tutorial Assets

The following asset was used during the production of this tutorial.

Step 1

Start by making a new file (Command/Ctrl + N).

Step 2: Sketch

Grab a pencil and draw your favorite car. There's no need be very detailed. Just make sure the drawing has perfect perspective. Other small details can be added directly in Photoshop.

Step 2: Tracing in Photoshop

Import the sketch to Photoshop by scanning it and then open it in Photoshop. Activate Pen tool. Set its mode to Path. Trace the car's basic shape.

Step 3

Next, trace its inner shape. Set its mode to Subtract to turn it into a hole inside the car.

Here's our final path.

Step 4: Draw Basic Shape

Hit Command/Ctrl + Enter to convert the path into a selection. Make new layer and fill the selection with almost white color (#fcfafb).

Step 5

Make new layer again and paint a big red stripe using Brush tool. Set its hardness to 100% to get hard edges shape.

Step 6

Continue this process to add another stripe.

You will also need to match the stripe shape with the car perspective.

Here's our result. To help seeing the result, I change the background color temporarily to gray. What we have at this stage is going to be the basic color on our car. If you want to add more color or stripes, you might want to do it now. In the next step, we will mostly work on adding shadows and highlights to turn this flat drawing into a three dimensional car.

Step 8

Draw inner part of the car. Use Brush tool with foreground color black.

Step 9: Front Bumper

Select front bumper.

Step 10

First we need to consistent with the light source. In this image, our light source comes from top right.

Make new layer and activate Brush tool. Select front bumper and paint some shadows. Remember to paint more shadow on area that has less light. Reduce layer Opacity to lower the shadow.

Step 11: Body Lines

Make new layer. Draw car body lines that separate each part of the car. Use black for its color. Hit Command/Ctrl + J to duplicate its layer. Hit Command/Ctrl + I to invert the duplicated line color to white. Activate Move tool and hit Down Arrow once or twice to move it 1 px or 2 px down. Reduce its Opacity until we have a nice inset effect separating each body part.

Step 12

Make new layer and draw more shadow on the bumper surface to add more depth.

Step 13: Doors

Select the door by drawing a path and then convert it to selection. Draw a linear gradient from opaque black to a more transparent black. Reduce layer Opacity.

Step 14

Repeat same step to draw back door.

Step 15: Sideskirt

Select lower part of the sideskirt using Polygonal Lasso tool. Make new layer and then paint some shadows.

Step 16

Draw another shadow on its trunk.

Step 17: Car Hood

Make new layer and paint subtle shadow on the car hood. Use big soft brush with very low Opacity.

Step 18: Fender

Paint another shadow on its fender. To get a perfect circle shape, you will need to use Marquee Ellipse tool to draw the selection first.

Step 19: Car Surface Reflection

Make new selection on its roof. You can use Pen tool to draw a path to make sure the selection is accurate.

Step 20

Make new layer and place on top. Paint white inside the selection until we have a nice reflection on the car surface. Remove selection (Command/Ctrl + D).

Step 21

Draw another reflection on other part of the car. Use previous technique.

Step 22

Use Brush tool to manually draw random highlight and shadow on lower part of the bumper.

Step 23

To make it realistic, let's add some imperfect light reflections. Draw simple white random lines using a Brush tool.

Place the line on the car surface.

Step 24: Car Glass

Draw subtle highlight between door and its glass window.

Step 25

Make new layer paint glass reflection using soft Brush tool with low Opacity. You may need to lower the layer Opacity if the result is still too harsh.

Step 26

Make new layer and draw light reflection on the glass door. Draw 1 px white line on the glass side to give it thicker appearance.

Step 27: Hood Airscoop

On top of the hood, draw a selection and fill it with white. Paint some shadow and highlight until we have an airscoop with air vent in front of it.

Here's the result before and after adding the airscoop.

Step 28

Draw U shape selection on top of the hood. Make sure to match it with the car perspective. Paint some shadows on its side.

Step 29

Draw another selection inside the U shape and fill it with white. Repeat this step until we have few shapes inside it.

Step 30

Make new layer and convert it to Clipping Mask. Draw shadow on previous shape.

Step 31

Paint soft highlight on indicated area below.

Step 32: Wire Grill

We are now moving on to work on its carburetor. First, draw some gray shapes inside the carburetor. No need to add too many details here. Make new layer and draw a diagonal line.

Step 33

Duplicate and transform the line by pressing Command/Ctrl + Alt + T. Hit right arrow a few times to move the new line. Hit Enter to confirm the transformation and duplication process. Hit Command/Ctrl + Shift + Alt + T to repeat this process.

Step 34

Use same steps to add another lines with different angle.

Step 35

Add shadow on upper part of the carburetor area.

Step 36: Rear View Mirror

Draw a polygonal selection. Make new layer and then fill it with black. Make new layer and paint its upper part with white and lower part with black to add highlight and shadow.

Step 37

Activate Lasso tool and make selection for rear view mirror handle. Fill it with white and then add Bevel and Emboss.

Step 38

Draw another rear view mirror on its opposite side. By judging from its position, only small part of this rear view mirror is visible.

Step 39: Seats

Draw seat basic shape. Here, I'm using red for its color. Make new layer and hit Command/Ctrl + Alt + G to convert it to Clipping Mask. Everyting we paint here will goes inside the seat. Paint black on its edge to add shadow. Paste logo on top of the seat.

Step 40: Rollbar

Next, we will draw its rolllbar. Start by drawing some simple rectangles. Use the roll bar basic color.

Step 41

Activate Brush tool and reduce its Opacity from the Option Bar. Paint white on center of the rollbar and black on its edge to give it three dimentional appearance. Keed doing this to each rollbar.

Step 42: Tires and Rims

Draw a black elliptical shape for its tire.

Step 43

Make new layer and then paint some highlight and shadow using Brush tool with low Opacity.

Keep repeating this process. See the progress in pictures below.

Step 44

Activate Brush tool with 100% Hardness and 100% Opacity. Draw rim basic shape. I want it to be white, so I use white in the foreground color. Make new layer and place it behind the rim shape. Use lower Opacity Brush to paint highlight inside the rim.

Step 45

Paint soft shadow using big and soft Brush around the rim. Paint highlight on center of ring.

Keep repeating this step.

Add more details on the rim. Still using same technique, draw black for shadow and white for highlight using low Opacity Brush.

Step 46

Make crescent shape selection on the rim center and paint with white and black to get a reflection.

Step 47

Add colors inside the rim hole to draw bolts.

Step 48

Add details behind the tire such as brake and disk brake.

Step 49

Draw another black elliptical shape for its rear tire. Paint some highlights using Brush tool.

Step 50

Draw its rim. Paint shadow to give it three dimentional appearance.

Step 51

Keep painting more details using brush tool. Upper side should be darker than the rest.

Step 52: Wing

Activate Brush tool and paint wing behind the car. Make new layer and paint its highlight.

Step 53

Draw extra part to attach the wings handle onto the trunk. Manually, draw its handle.

Step 54

Paint another highlight on upper part of the wing.

Step 55

Draw another wing handle on the opposite side.

Step 56: Shadow

Make new layer and place underneath other layer. Draw car shadow by applying black under the car. Don't forget to draw specific parts that are significant, such as wing and rear view mirror.

Step 57

Wing is much further than the rest. So we want its shadow to be lighter. We can do this by erasing it using low Opacity Eraser.

Step 58: Intercooler

Draw a grey rectangle inside front bumper. Make new layer and then paint highlight and shadow on indicated areas below.

Step 59

Draw some lines. Use technique explained earlier in Step 33. Draw thinner lines with different direction and place it behind the first lines.

Step 60

Make new layer and paint highlights using low Opacity Brush tool.

Step 61

Paint shadow on upper part of the intercooler. Draw wire reflection on lower part of the bumper.

Step 62

Draw a gray pipe on left side of the bumper. Make new layer and paint highlight on center of the pipe. Draw pipe reflection on the bumper surface.

Step 63

Draw another pipe on its opposite side.

Step 64: Tow

Draw a black rectangle and then draw the tow base. Next, draw an omega shape.

Step 65

Make new layer and then paint shadow on inner side of the tow. For decoration, draw an arrow on its surface.

Step 66

Make new layer and then draw highlight on the tow using small brush. Don't forget to add tow shadow on the bumper behind it.

Step 67: Car License Number

Draw a dark polygonal shape and then draw its rear to give a three dimentional appearance. See pictures below for reference. Add car number and then transform it until it matches the plate perspective.

Step 68: Add Reflection

Grab this image from deviantart.

Step 69

Place the image on top of the car. Add layer mask. Hide some of the image by painting it with black using soft Brush.

Change its blend mode to Screen and reduce its Opacity.

Step 70: Door Handle

Use Ellipse Marquee tool to draw an elliptical selection on the door. Make new layer and fill it with gray.

Step 71

Behind the door handle draw a dark rounded rounded rectangle with lower Opacity. Paint highlight on its lower side.

Step 72

Repeat previous step to add rear door handle.

Step 73

Make new layer and paint subtle highlight on top of the handle. Make sure to use small Brush tool with very low Opacity.

Step 74: Decal

Draw a white polygon and place it on the door. Make new layer, paint highlight and shadow.

Step 75

Add a number. On Layers panel, right click the number layer and select Convert to Shape. We need to do this to freely transform the number. Hit Command/Ctrl + T, right click and Alt-drag its corner to skew the shape until its perspective matches the door. Right click and choose Warp to distort its shape a bit.

Step 76

Reduce text layer Opacity to make it blend with the door surface. Draw tapes on its corners. You can also add logo.

Step 77

Add more decal on the car surface. We use same techniques explained earlier. Make sure to transform it until they match the surface perspective.

Step 78

Activate Brush tool with low Opacity and white as its foreground color. Draw some highlight on its side. Remember that our light source is at top roght corner. So, we want its top to be lighter. Paint more details inside the light.

Keep adding more details inside the main light. See pictures below for reference.

Step 79

Use same technique to draw the other light.

Step 80: Floor

Make new layer and place it under all layers. Select the floor using Rectangular Marquee tool and fill it with black.

Step 81

Click Filter > Noise > Add Noise. Use big Amount to get much noise inside the floor.

Step 82

Click Filter > Pixelate > Mosaic.

Step 83

Click Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and reduce its Lightness until the noise gets darker.

Step 84

Here's the car appearance after we darkened its floor.

This is the end of the tutorial. As you can see, we are drawing this little by little using only brush tool. The process is fairly simple. Start by drawing the basic shape and then paint highlight and shadow on top of it.

Accessibility tree (AOM)

The accessibility tree, or accessibility object model (AOM), contains accessibility-related information for most HTML elements.

Browsers convert markup into an internal representation called the DOM tree. The DOM tree contains objects for all the markup’s elements, attributes, and text nodes. Browsers then create an accessibility tree based on the DOM tree, which is used by platform-specific Accessibility APIs for assistive technologies, such as screen readers.

There are four things in an accessibility tree object:

How can we refer to this thing? For instance, a link with the text ‘Read more’ will have ‘Read more’ as its name (more on how names are computed in the Accessible Name and Description Computation spec).
How do we describe this element, if we want to add anything to the name? The description of a table could explain what kind of info that table offers.
What kind of thing is it? For example, is it a button, a nav bar, or a list of items?
Does it have a state? Think checked/unchecked for checkboxes, or collapsed/expanded for the <summary> element.

Additionally, the accessibility tree often contains information on what can be done with an element: a link can be followed, a text input can be typed into, etc.


text:
Plaintext refers to information that is being used as an input to an encryption algorithm, or to ciphertext that has been decrypted.

It is frequently used interchangeably with the term cleartext, which more loosely refers to any information, such as a text document, image, etc., that has not been encrypted and can be read by a human or computer without additional processing.

It's been a rather quiet week, probably due to a lot of our team getting ready for US Thanksgiving. But there has been some activity and in the spirit of getting something out (release early, release often) ...

The Infinispan and Vert.x teams are in Madrid this week for Codemotion (I hope they're getting better weather than some of us!) If you are in the area then this is a great opportunity to go and see a couple of our teams and give them feedback, learn the roadmaps etc. And even though some of the team are in Spain, they managed to put out an update to the Infinispan/Spark connector, which Gustavo discusses. Plus an update to the C++ and C# Hotrod clients!

As usual, there's the Hibernate Community Newsletter to browse while you're working or digesting turkey! And we've even had a Teiid release, version 9.3.5 this time. Congratulations to the team!!

While I've got your attention I'll take the opportunity to remind you all about EE4J. I've spoken about this before on my blog, but there's been a lot of activity in the last few days as we've started to ask for input on the new Java EE brand name (EE4J is the project, not the brand), as well as moving some specifications and reference implementations across to the project, as you can see from the twitter feed:

Screen Shot 2017-11-23 at 09.28.52.png

Please take a look and get involved.

OK that's it for this week!

Devotions By Jan

Take A Number!

Leave a comment

Scripture for Today:  Psalm 27:14 “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”

I see fewer and fewer of those machines where one takes a number.  But when they are in use I am not sure it makes the waiting any easier.  But then, the purpose is more about keeping people from cutting in line than my ease.  It does  make sense when the waiting area is small and having any kind of line would crowd everyone.  But what is really annoying is not seeing the machine until after having waited some!

Today’s verse is all about waiting.  David is waiting to see God’s goodness.  He is seeking His face for mercy and help.  David knows that there can be no courage or bravery on his part without that wait.  He waits with expectation that God will come through for him.  His hope is based on God’s character and God’s promises to him.  Despite his circumstances, David remains confident that he will see the goodness of the Lord (verse 13).

When I wait to see God’s goodness I want to wait the way David did.  I do not want to focus on that problem.  Instead, I want to think about who God is; my Light, my Salvation, my Refuge.  Like David I want to remember God’s promises to me (verse 8).  But some waits are so long and difficult.  When there seems to be no evidence of change or when a solution seems impossible, waiting for God’s plan to unfold is a stretch.  But He gives me strength even for the wait.  His promises and reassurances give me confidence.  And when I look back on this wait, I will say that God showed me His goodness.

Keep my heart strong, Lord, while I wait for You.

NORTH DALLAS (HOODLINE) — A new burger and beer spot has opened up shop in the neighborhood. Located at 11661 Preston Road, Suite 153, in North Dallas, the fresh addition is called Slater’s 50/50.

The chain, which has locations in California, Nevada, Hawaii and elsewhere in Texas, gets its name from its 50/50 burger patty: half ground bacon, half ground beef.

(Photo: SomChics M./Yelp)

Signature burgers, made with Black Canyon Angus beef and thick-cut bacon, include the Lone Star Smoke with cheddar cheese, crispy onion rings, pickles, barbecue sauce and garlic aioli on a brioche bun; the P.B. & Jellousy topped with peanut butter and strawberry jelly on a honey wheat bun; and the Best Damn Bacon Cheeseburger with grilled onions, American cheese, lettuce, tomato and Thousand Island dressing on a brioche bun.

Also on the menu are loaded fries, wings, salads, milkshakes and more. Pair your fare with a selection from the bar, which offers beer and cocktails.

Slater’s 50/50 has made a good impression thus far, with a four-star rating out of three reviews on Yelp.

SomChics M., who reviewed the new spot on Sept. 30, wrote, “Had a great turnout for the grand opening, the burgers were so good! … They also have a lot of craft beers.”

Yelper Seven K. added, “Nice location and friendly staff.”

Interested? Stop by to welcome the new business to the neighborhood. Slater’s 50/50 is open from 11 a.m.–10 p.m. on Monday-Thursday and Sunday, and 11 a.m.–midnight on Friday and Saturday.

NEW YORK (CBSDFW.COM/AP) — A 15th case of the new coronavirus has been confirmed in the U.S., and this time it’s from a patient who is under quarantine in Texas.

Health officials announced the 15th case Thursday and that it was from a U.S. evacuee from China. The infection was confirmed through a Wednesday night lab test.

The patient, who had been flown to Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, is now in isolation at a hospital and was reported in stable condition.

“Every precaution has been executed according to plan, to keep the individual isolated from the general public,” San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg said during a press conference with the CDC. “… San Antonians should feel confident, continue to go about their lives while the professionals treat and contain the disease.

Two earlier U.S. cases were found among evacuees who were flown last week from the Chinese city of Wuhan to Marine Corps Air Station Miramar in Southern California. The latest of those cases was reported Wednesday night.

Hundreds of people, including U.S. State Department employees and their families, have arrived at military bases in Texas, California, and Nebraska aboard chartered flights from Wuhan, a city of 11 million that is at the center of the outbreak.

The novel coronavirus has infected tens of thousands of people in China and about 400 outside of the mainland. More than 1,300 deaths — two outside of China — have been reported from the illness.

The virus can cause fever, coughing, wheezing and pneumonia. Health officials think it spreads mainly from droplets when an infected person coughs or sneezes, similar to how the flu spreads.

Roof Leak Repair Services

Roof Leak Repair

Missing Shingles Should Be Replaced Quickly, as They Provide an Opportunity for Roof Leaks.

Is your house’s roof system or your company’s roof leaking? Moisture leaking will harm your roof system in a variety of ways, and leaks of any degree should be dealt with sooner rather than later. Whenever you require quick and affordable roof leak repair in Plano, TX, you can rely on the experts at Chisholm Trail Roofing & Construction for assistance. While our team fixes your roof system, we can also alert you to any other signs of leaking on your roof. To discover more or request a quote, contact our office now at 972-954-5322!

The Importance of Roof Leak Repair

Roof Leak Repair

If You Ignore a Leaking Roof, Damage Will Eventually Spread Throughout Your Structure.

Leaking roof repair should be a high priority for any business building owner or homeowner. We say this because a roof leak can severely damage the entirety of your roof, and possibly even the structure beneath. Seeing the starting indications of leaks can help you prevent them, so make sure to assess your roof for the obvious issues often. Crooked, cracked, and absent shingles can all indicate potential leaking, as can shingles that are losing asphalt or curled at the edges.

On commercial roofs, look out for areas of your roof that seem to allow water to pond, or areas that take too long to dry after rainfall. Leaks that are left unattended can allow mold to flourish, and potentially rot away your roof decking. Rotten roof decking lessens the stability of your roof, and can lead to roof failure. Because your roof is made of so many layers, any leaks that come down through the ceiling are likely much more serious than the dripping you see might indicate.

Fast And Affordable Repairs

If your business or home roof has sprung a leak, call our offices today at 972-954-5322 for fast and cost-effective roof leak repair in Plano, TX. Roofing leaks, like other roof damages, are best fixed quickly, as the repairs get more costly and time consuming as they become more severe. If you’re hoping to protect your roofing from unnecessary harm, it’s important to perform regular roof assessments at least once each year. Call our professionals for the dependable leaking roof repair you require.

PhD defence by Xiaoyi Wang

On 2 June 2020, Xiaoyi Wang will defend his PhD thesis. The PhD defence will take place virtually on Zoom and everyone can join via this link

Data Visualizations for Helping Users Understand Statistical Models

Xiaoyi Wang

Statistical models are playing a pivotal role in many domains (e.g., biology, chemistry, health care) and help users learn from data, find patterns, and make decisions. There is an increasing need for domain experts to use such models for understanding and solving domain-specific problems. However, domain experts may not be experts in data science. They may face two challenges when developing and using statistical models. One challenge is that the knowledge of non-expert users may be insufficient to evaluate statistical models in the model development process. The other challenge is that an insufficient understanding of statistical models may result in wrong decisions. To bridge the gaps between users’ comprehension and statistical models, this thesis investigates how interactive data visualizations help users understand statistical models.

How experimenters influenced participants in the ganzfeld parapsychology experiment

An analysis of conversations that took place during ganzfeld parapsychology experiments has revealed researchers may have exerted an influence on their participants.

Ganzfeld experiments involve a ‘sender’ trying to project images from a video clip to a ‘receiver’ who is incubated, blindfolded, in a sound-proof room. The ‘receiver’ reports the images they believe they are receiving to a researcher who notes them down. Crucially, the next stage involves the researcher reviewing these images with the ‘receiver’, before the ‘receiver’ attempts to identify the video clip seen by the ‘sender’ from among three decoys.

Robin Wooffitt analysed recordings taken from ganzfeld experiments held at the famous Koestler Parapsychology Unit in Edinburgh during the mid 1990s. He found that as the researchers reviewed the images reported by the ‘receivers’, they tended to respond in two distinct ways.

After a clarification by the ‘receiver’, researchers sometimes said “okay” and moved decisively onto the next item. Other times, however, they said “mm hm” with an inquiring tone. After hearing this, ‘receivers’ typically tried to expand on their description, and as they did so, often ended up casting doubt on the clarity of their own imagery.

Wooffitt said that a researcher’s choice to respond with “okay” or “mm hm” might seem inconsequential, but in fact the latter utterance clearly had an effect on the ‘receivers” confidence in their imagery. Consequently, he said, “it is at least possible that they [the ‘receivers’] will have less confidence in relying on their imagery to identify significant events or themes in the video clips.”

If the researchers did influence participants in this way, could it help explain why sceptical researchers have tended to report more negative results than believers? Wooffitt told the Digest: “I think it has much more to do with the nature of one’s interactional style, and that doesn’t necessarily correlate with either sceptical or ‘pro-paranormal’ beliefs.”

Wooffitt added that by furthering our “understanding of the impact of the social dynamics in psychology experiments more generally”, his observations have implications beyond parapsychology research.

Wooffitt, R. (2007). Communication and laboratory performance in parapsychology experiments: Demand characteristics and the social organisation of interaction. British Journal of Social Psychology, 46, 477-498.

Post written by Christian Jarrett (@psych_writer) for the BPS Research Digest.

12 thoughts on “How experimenters influenced participants in the ganzfeld parapsychology experiment”

  1. I’m a big fan of the BPS Research Digest, but I think that the title of this article is misleading. I haven’t read the original paper for myself since I do not get the journal. However, it my understanding that Ganzfeld experiments are double blind. As I understand it, Wooffitt has done a psychological study of the interactions between experimenters and participants in this setting. There is nothing in this article (other than the title) suggesting that experimenters biased participants responses in any particular direction when it came to selecting target images.

  2. The finding is that experimenters’ verbal responses affected the confidence of ‘receivers’ in their own imagery. This is a flaw in the experimental design. It is possible (though this was not tested by this study) that more sceptical researchers may have been more prone to making the kind of verbal responses that sowed doubt in the ‘receivers’.

  3. The experiments Wooffitt is referring to were double blind, meaning the researcher was blind to the target image. The researcher could hum and haa as much as he or she liked, it would make absolutely no difference. There is still only a 1 in 4 chance of choosing the correct image.Come on guys, this is kindergarten stuff.

  4. Anonymous you are mistaken. Your analysis pre-supposes that there is no experimental ‘telepathic’ effect. If you ‘know’ there is no such effect, then there is no point conducting an experiment. If, however, the aim of the experiment is to test whether there is an effect or not, then these interactions are relevant. By sowing doubt in the receiver’s confidence in his/her imagery they could increase the likelihood of a type 2 statistical error – that is, failing to observe an effect when in fact there is one.

  5. Anonymous – the umming and ahhing is having an effect on the subjects responses. What the research shows is that noise is being introduced into the experiment by the way in which the experimenters interact with the subject. This is occuring whether the experiment is double blind (and the noise is unrelated to the desired response) or not.

  6. There seems to be some confusion.Skeptics on another website have pounced on this article claiming that it explains the positive results.I was pointing out that it clearly does not.A researcher sitting in with the receiver creates noise and can of course influence the outcome but only if anything to reduce the effect not increase it. I’m sure the researchers were well aware of this.

  7. It is clear it cannot explain the positive results. The fact that skeptics claim otherwise is par for the course. They have either not understood it, or more likely haven’t even bothered reading the article.But nevertheless I do not agree that it’s a lot to do about nothing. It might at least partially explain why skeptical researchers have a propensity to get negative results. Subconsciously skeptical researchers might want the receiver to fail. Thus if the receiver gives a correct answer which the skeptical researcher also telepathically picks up as being the correct answer, then s/he may have a propensity to question that answer.And of course a skeptical researcher will suppose the receiver is essentially guessing even though the receiver might feel he’s not. So the skeptical researcher may well have a propensity to question the answers given by the receiver anyway.

  8. Have the receivers mentations judged by a panel of independent blind judges, which I believe has taken place with positive results.

Thrustmaster is proud to present T.Flight U.S. Air Force Edition: the multiplatform gaming headset officially licensed by the U.S. Air Force to pay tribute to its pilots. Thrustmaster has been equipping simmers with flight simulation devices since 1990, and developing increasingly immersive technologies for gamers. Its expertise in designing flight simulation devices, combined with the Hercules audio division’s 25 years of experience, have led Thrustmaster to create a new add-on to complement its existing Flightsim ecosystem: a gaming headset. Built of the best materials for exceptional sound quality, its design draws much of its inspiration from real headsets worn by pilots. Its multiplatform compatibility and high-performance audio properties make this headset a must-have accessory for all simmers.

Audio expertise

The 2”/50 mm drivers provide crystal-clear sound, with no saturation. The auditory sensations experienced by users are exactly those intended by game developers, thanks to a stable frequency response curve optimized for different gaming sessions, and a perfect balance between bass, mid-range and treble frequencies. The master volume can be adjusted directly on the headset.

Comfort and evolution

Inspired by real aviation headsets, the T.Flight U.S. Air Force Edition features large memory foam ear pad cushions, with a layer of gel to keep the wearer’s head cool — even during long gaming sessions.

Themes let you customize your content’s presentation. Distributions are packaged Drupal bundles you can use as starter-kits. Mix and match these components to enhance Drupal’s core abilities. Or, integrate Drupal with external services and other applications in your infrastructure. No other content management software is this powerful and scalable.

The Drupal project is open source software. Anyone can download, use, work on, and share it with others. It’s built on principles like collaboration, globalism, and innovation.

Digital Strategy Works WP Engine Member Agency Partner

Digital Strategy Works is a WP Engine Agency Member Partner

We are super excited to announce our Agency Member Partner status with WP Engine, the leading provider of WordPress Manage Hosting solutions for startups, small business, and entrepreneurs.

Digital Strategy Works partnered with WP Engine over 4-years ago to host all of our client websites. We couldn’t be happier WP Engine’s service and support. Prior to WP Engine, we worked with Media Temple and even tried our hand at running our own VPS on Linode, but things being as they were at the time, both solutions were simply not the right fit. We needed top-notch WordPress-trained support technicians and we also needed to get out from under being system administrators, because hosting and securing WordPress were two businesses that took away from our core focus serving our clients branding, web development, SEO, and social media needs.

As a WP Engine Member Agency partner, we can continue to do what we do best – build exceptional WordPress websites. And, we can feel confident as a WP Engine Agency Member Partner, that our clients are supported 100% by experts in WordPress hosting and security.

Demolishing your home can be a stressful time but by using these helpful tips, you can ensure that you're prepared and that 'D day' will go as smoothly as possible.

Move your contents to storage

Before any demolition work begins, big or small, it’s time to get your valuables out of there. Arrange storage in an off-site facility and rest assured that no matter what happens, your contents will be safe.

Check your insurance

While ensuring that any contractor you use has adequate insurance, it’s also important to check your own home insurance policy. By law you are required to disclose changes of circumstances that could affect your insurance, so it is worthwhile calling up your insurer and informing them of your intention to carry out a demolition.

Better to be safe than be in a position where your public liability cover is voided in the event of an injury, or where a burst water pipe causes significant damage to neighbouring properties, leaving you with legal liability exposure.

Arrange alternative accommodation

Before demolition begins, ensure you have arranged suitable alternative accommodation. You may have another property to reside in, or you may wish to rentshare or board with family or friends. Whatever you decide, make sure it’s all planned out well in advance of demo day.

Reuse old materials

Before you bring in the wrecking ball, consider whether any materials can be reused for your new property. For example, you may wish to retain the old pavers for an outdoor patio, or keep some well-established garden plants.

Indoors, you may want to keep some of the cornices or skirting boards for reuse, or even the internal and external doors – after all, it’s amazing what a coat of fresh paint can do. Remember, a saving here and there can add up to thousands of dollars in savings in total.

Make a profit from unwanted goods

If your kitchen, bathtub, vanity, clothesline or laundry benches are in relatively good nick, consider putting them up for sale. This has the added benefit of having the items removed from your premises by someone else without paying demolition or tip fees. You can advertise for free on Facebook groups or via Gumtree; alternatively, try the local newspaper and community boards.

Similarly, now is a good time to consider a spring clean of your home contents. Host a garage sale and you might even make a small profit from your unwanted goods.

With these practical tips, your demolition day is bound to be the start of your next exciting venture.

US Bishops To Meet June 11-14 In Baltimore; Assembly To Be Live Streamed, Carried Via Satellite; New Prevention Website launched

WASHINGTON— The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) will gather for the 2019 Spring General Assembly in Baltimore, June 11-14.

During the assembly, the bishops will discuss and vote on bishop accountability measures to respond to the abuse crisis and will also hear reports from the National Advisory Council and an annual progress report by the National Review Board. The bishops will also discuss and vote on the National Directory for the Formation, Ministry, and Life of Permanent Deacons in the United States (2nd edition); and on the final approval of revisions made to the second typical edition of the ICEL Gray Book of the Ordination of a Bishop, of Priests, and of Deacons, among other items.

The USCCB has also launched a new website highlighting the importance of prevention, protection and accountability in response to the ongoing effort to eradicate clergy sexual abuse. As the American bishops prepare to meet in Baltimore for their Spring General Assembly next week, this new site serves as a resource detailing the steps the American bishops are taking to confront this crisis.

On the site, readers can browse through the layers of the Holy Father’s Motu Proprio, the 2002 Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People and its progress, as well as the new reforms set to be discussed in Baltimore. There are also numerous readily available resources to address any instance of clergy sexual abuse.

Explore the website by visiting:

Disney Discovery- Cinderella Watch

I am feeling like a princess with all of the Disney wedding planning I have been doing. I am not having a Cinderella themed wedding but I certainly feel like Cinderella. I wanted a little something to keep that felling alive. I have found just the thing. Today’s Disney discovery is a Cinderella watch.

2016-06-22 16_22_22-Amazon.com_ Disney Cinderella Women's W002516 Cinderella Analog Display Analog Q

Isn’t this watch darling? I adore the image on the face of the watch and the coloring is perfect. I really enjoy the different shades of blue with the silver finish. The bling around the face of the watch and down the band adds just the right amount of sparkle, in my opinion. This watch is even water resistant to 99 feet! That’s a pretty cool feature my current watch does not have.

This watch comes with a 1 year warranty and is only $69.99 with free shipping. I think it would be perfect for any princess or princess in the making. If you agree, and what to check it out a little closer, you can find it HERE. Enjoy, fashionistas!
