Title: Reducing Courts' Failure to Appear Rate: A Procedural Justice Approach

  Annotation: This paper examines the effectiveness of using different kinds of written reminders to reduce misdemeanants’ Failure-to-appear (FTA) rates.
Abstract: Failure-to-appear (FTA) is a significant problem in the nation’s courts. Misdemeanants (n = 7865) in 14 Nebraska counties were randomly assigned to one of four conditions prior to their court date: no reminder (control), reminder-only, reminder with information on the negative consequences of FTA (reminder-sanctions), or reminder with information on sanctions as well as the procedural justice benefits of appearing (reminder-combined). A subset (n = 452) was surveyed after their scheduled court date to assess their perceptions of procedural fairness and their level of trust/confidence in the courts. Reminders reduced FTA, and more substantive reminders were significantly more effective than a simple reminder. Specifically, the FTA rate was 12.6% in the control condition, 10.9% in the reminder-only condition, 8.3% in the reminder-sanctions condition, and 9.8% in the reminder-combined condition. The FTA rate was higher for some categories of misdemeanors than others, and for defendants with multiple charges (15.4% if two or more charges, versus 5.4% for one charge). The baseline FTA rate was higher for Blacks (18.7%) than for Whites (11.7%) and Hispanics (10.5%), but this difference was not statistically significant when controlling for other factors such as number of offenses and type of offense. Survey results indicated that misdemeanants’ trust/confidence assessments, as well as their perceptions of procedural justice, were related to their appearance in court. Defendants who appeared in court had higher institutional confidence and felt they had been treated more fairly by the criminal justice system (means = 3.23 and 3.52, respectively, on a 5-point scale) than non-appearers (means = 3.02 and 3.23, respectively). Institutional confidence and procedural justice were themselves highly correlated. Defendants with low trust in the courts were less likely to appear than those with higher trust when there was no reminder, but this relationship was not statistically significant when there was a reminder.

Contemporary Voices: Films for Global Education

Watch the playlist

About this playlist

This playlist was created to help educators at the secondary level to integrate documentary films about various global issues into their curriculum across several subject areas. It has been developed to suit the curricula of provinces and territories throughout Canada. The films and interactive projects were selected to represent a variety of global issues that fall into seven broad categories, including Environmental Conservation & Sustainability, Human Rights, Social Justice & Globalization, War, Conflict & Peace, and International Development Issues.

Education for global citizenship encourages youth to develop empathy for others living across the planet and to realize we all share our environment. When educators raise awareness of the issues and mobilize students to take action, this helps our youth develop a consciousness of our interconnectedness and interdependence. By teaching global citizenship, we provide students with the skills to participate in ensuring their own and our collective well-being. Introducing international issues in the classroom empowers students and helps to motivate them to contribute positively to a society that values human rights, justice, peace, global solidarity, environmental sustainability and global health.

Documentaries expose us to different realities, confront our concepts of truth and play a profound role in shaping our understanding of the world today and the world we want for tomorrow. By watching and analyzing documentaries, students learn about their own roles as global citizens and discover the key factors behind global challenges.

We encourage educators to use this playlist and in the films on the NFB Global Issues Film List, to enhance classroom learning. The CONTEMPORARY VOICES: Global Issues Educator's Guide offers discussion questions that encourage students to probe the global challenges presented in the films and to explore solutions and courses of action. There is also a section addressing media literacy within the context of global issues. It has been designed to help students analyze a medium, such as film, its message, its audience, certain production elements and its potential impact. A curriculum matrix will help educators to identify the curricula in each province and territory related to the issues covered on the Global Issues playlist and in the Global Issues Film List.

Teachers and students who would like to further explore specific global issues can learn more from the resources section at the end of the guide.

Create your own chapters and playlists with the films featured on the Global Issues playlist and customize classroom learning. Subscribing to CAMPUS allows you to use the chaptering tool to select a specific part of a film that is the most pertinent for your purposes. Use the chaptering tool to easily select a specific sequence of a full-length film, add it to your own playlist, write lesson notes and questions, and then screen the playlist for your students.

East End Regional Intervention Court (EERIC)

Screening, Assessment, Case Processing & Case Management

Screening of potential participants will be handled preliminarily by the Suffolk County Department of Probation as part of their regular pre-trial screening process (for incarcerated defendants) or by the EERIC Coordinator (for out of custody defendants).

Assessments will be conducted by a probation officer, member of the EERIC Team, or the EERIC Coordinator.
EERIC will use the standard reassessment tool used by most New York State adult drug treatment courts.

Once a defendant has been screened and been found eligible for participation in the program, the District Attorney's Office and defense counsel will be contacted. The Assistant District Attorney assigned to EERIC will review the appropriate case files and, within one day, notify the EERIC Coordinator as to whether approval for participation has been granted. The EERIC team will then review the case for final approval.

The EERIC Coordinator will be responsible for case management for participants.

The EERIC Coordinator will report participant progress as follows:

  • Tuesdays, at 1:00pm, at a staffing of the team in Southampton Justice Court with Judge Kooperstein.

  • Thursdays, at 1:00pm, at a staffing of the team in Riverhead Justice Court with Judge Smith..

Oxycodone/Aspirin (Percodan®)

Last Modified: January 14, 2012

Pronounced: OX-i-KOE-done/AS-pir-in
Classification: Opioid

About Oxycodone/Aspirin

Percodan is a pain medication that contains a combination of oxycodone and aspirin. Oxycodone and all opiate painkillers work by activating certain receptors in the brain that cause pain relief. Aspirin reduces substances in the body that cause pain, fever, and inflammation. Opiate painkillers are the strongest class of painkillers.

How to Take Oxycodone/Aspirin

Percodan is a pill that comes in various dosages. The pill is usually taken with or without food every 4 to 6 hours, either as needed for pain or on a regular schedule decided by your doctor. When Percodan is swallowed, it begins working to relieve pain in about 15 to 30 minutes, although it reaches its peak effect in 1 hour. It will continue to work for 3 to 6 hours. Percodan provides quick and effective pain relief. It is used to treat breakthrough pain in cancer patients who have been receiving opioids on a regular basis to treat their baseline pain.

Because Percodan contains both Oxycodone and Aspirin, an overdose of Percodan is the same as an overdose of Aspirin. Children should not take Percodan because of the Aspirin in it. People who are cautioned against using Aspirin for whatever reason should not take Percodan either.

Possible Side Effects of Oxycodone/Aspirin

There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of Oxycodone/Aspirin. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects:

Nausea and/or Vomiting

Take anti-nausea medications as prescribed. If you continue to have nausea or vomiting, notify your doctor or nurse so they can help you manage this side effect. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms. Read the Nausea & Vomiting Tip Sheet for more suggestions.

Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.

There are several things you can do to prevent or relieve constipation. Include fiber in your diet (fruits and vegetables), drink 8-10 glasses of non-alcoholic fluids a day and keep active. Your doctor or nurse can also recommend medications to relieve constipation. A stool softener and/or stimulant, such as senna, once or twice a day may prevent constipation. Notify your healthcare team if you do not have a bowel movement for 3 or more days.

Sleepiness (Somnolence)

Feeling sleepy, drowsy or lightheaded may accompany the use of opioid painkillers. Some people just don't "feel like themselves" on these medications. Avoid driving or any other potentially dangerous tasks that require your concentration and a clear head until you feel normal again. Avoid alcohol or other sedatives while using these medications unless they are specifically prescribed by your doctor. Most people will begin to feel like themselves after a few days on the medications. If you continue to feel "out of it" after a couple of days, talk to your doctor about adjusting your dosages.

Slowed Breathing or Low Blood Pressure

You may experience low blood pressure or slowed breathing while taking Oxycodone or any other opioid painkillers. This usually only occurs when the dose of medication is too high or it is increased too quickly. This rarely happens to patients who have been taking opioid medications for a long time.

These side effects can also result from an overdose of Oxycodone or other opioids. If you suspect that you or someone you know has taken an overdose of Oxycodone or other opioids, call 911 immediately. If you feel extremely tired, lightheaded, dizzy, sweaty, nauseated, or short of breath, you need to see a doctor immediately. Sometimes patients who have taken too much Oxycodone or other opioid medications will be so sleepy that they can't be awakened or aroused.

If any of these symptoms occur, you should seek emergency medical attention.

Allergic Reaction

Although it is uncommon, some people are allergic to certain opioid preparations. If after taking an opioid, you experience chest tightness, swelling, wheezing, fever, itching, blue skin color or cough, you need to call 911.

If any of these symptoms occur, you should seek emergency medical attention.

Tolerance, Dependence and Addiction

Just as a person on long-term opioids stops experiencing some of their negative side effects after a while, they may also stop getting proper pain relief. This phenomenon is called tolerance. As patients develop tolerance, they will need higher doses of their opioids to get adequate levels of pain relief. Tolerance is a completely normal aspect of using opioid painkillers, and is nothing to be concerned about. The point of using these medications is to keep pain well controlled, therefore the exact doses that any patient requires are not important as long as they can be kept comfortable.

As a person remains on opioids for a long time, their bodies will begin to adapt to the medications. This causes tolerance, but it can also cause dependence. Dependence means that the body "gets used to" the opioids. Dependence DOES NOT equal addiction. Dependence is a natural, physical phenomenon that happens to everyone on long-term opioid therapy. The only important thing to know about dependence is that once a patient becomes dependent on opioids, they will feel very sick if they stop them abruptly. Patients who are dependent on opioids and stop them all of the sudden will feel lousy, like they have the flu. This is called withdrawal. The way to combat withdrawal is to take someone off of opioids very slowly, not all at once. It is important to remember that dependence and withdrawal are normal, and happen to everyone who takes opioids for a long period of time.

Many people who are prescribed Oxycodone or other opioid pain relievers are worried that they may become addicted to these medications. This fear stems from the fact that opioid medications can cause euphoria and pleasure when used by people who are not in any pain. However, when these medications are used to treat physical pain, it is extremely unlikely that patients will become addicted to them. Addiction is a psychological problem that very rarely effects people who take opioids for pain control. "Feeling high" from opiates does not happen to people who take them for pain control. However, pain-free people who abuse opioids for fun can run into problems with addiction.

Hosea – Chapter 4

A Rebellious Cow?

By Rabbi Jack Abramowitz

Hoshea told the Jews to listen to G-d because He has some issues with them. There is no truth, kindness or knowledge of G-d among them. There is only deceit, corruption, murder, theft and adultery. The people have no limits. The land will therefore be destroyed and all the creatures that live there will be reduced. The people warn the real prophets not to rebuke them, preferring the comforting words of false prophets. Therefore, they will stumble in daylight, from a lack of leadership. The false prophets will stumble by night, from their own misleading words. The nation will thereby be silenced – they will have no response to this turn of events.

The people were silenced because they had no one to lead them in the proper ways. They rejected knowledge, so G-d rejects them from serving Him. They overlooked His Torah, so He will overlook their children. (This is because, when the Jews accepted the Torah, they offered their children as a guarantee that it would be kept. Rashi cites this familiar Midrash, found in Tanchuma and elsewhere.) The better things got for them, the more the Jews rebelled, so G-d will trade their honor for shame.

The false prophets, rather than legitimate kohanim (priests), eat the sin offerings of the people; they actually hope for the people to sin so that they can profit! Both the people and their spiritual leaders will receive the same punishment: they will eat and not be satisfied. They will be promiscuous, but not procreate. This is because they have ignored G-d. They have gone astray and turned to idols of wood. Their daughters are promiscuous and their daughters-in-law commit adultery, but G-d will not punish them with the “bitter waters” (see Numbers 5), since the husbands are equally guilty. The nation refuses to get the message, so G-d will knock them around a bit.

Even though the northern kingdom of Israel “cheats on” G-d, the kingdom of Judah is not (yet) guilty. They should be careful to avoid places of idolatry and not to swear in G-d’s Name (which was often done falsely). Israel has acted like a rebellious cow, so now G-d is treating them like a sheep in a pasture. (The cow was fattened; the sheep has sparser food supplies.) Ephraim is too attached to their idols; they’re a lost cause. They have introduced drunken bacchanalia. The wind will carry them off like a bird, into exile, where they will be ashamed. (Ephraim is a common way of referring to the northern kingdom of the Ten Tribes, whose first king was from the Tribe of Ephraim.)

OSG Dev Notes

Revision as of 12:35, 16 December 2006 by Medelibero (Talk | contribs)

Jump to: navigation, search

Back to OWASP_SiteGenerator main page

To Do

  • Implement Hacme Bank into OSG (this will take care of the web services item also)
  • Add as many examples of vulnerablilties as possible
  • Add different types of Navigation
  • Add web services
    • Main goal of this is to have web services in there that show that web services can't be trusted and are another place for attacks.
  • Add some AJAX
    • This will use the WebServices (or not).

Hacme Bank conversion

The conversion of Hacme Bank to OSG will introduce a number of new vulnerabilties together the 1st example on a semi-real website implemtent in OSG.

All (or most) of the latest version of Hacme Bank v2.0 (which I (Dinis) wrote most of) is implemented in ascx controls and in webservices.

The first step might be to do a direct conversion of Hacmebank aspx and asmx pages so that there is just about no code rewrite. That said, it might be better to create a separate VS project just for this conversion.

Since the installation of the database will also need to be done, I am starting to think that it might be better to build this an a OSG Module (or something similar). I.e. not part of the original install, but something that can be easily added (by clicking in one button)

Proposed Architecture

For future development the following idea is proposed. Create an interface that is used for all vulnerabilities. When a user selects a vulnerability they will have the option how they wish it to be implemented (web service, normal page, etc...) they can chose one or more options for the implementation.

Each interface will have to be able to tell the front end what form fields it needs and also an area to handle the request back.

The reason for doing this is so that we only have to code one vulnerability and use it in many different places easier.

  • Potentially to complex for the payoff.
  • There could be a better way to do it while still following the DRY principle.

[Dinis Comments on the above]

The idea of a single interface for all vulnerabilities is a good one. The key is not to make it mandatory (i.e. has to be used for ALL vulnerabilties). I still want for 10m vulnerability development where the creator only needs to create an aspx or jsp page with the example of the vulnerability.

That said, having reusable blocks (ala Metasploit) sounds like a great idea.

Looking forward:

  • a major development that we will need to do is to run the vulnerabilities in Partial trust (so that we can easily accept third party submissions).
  • Auto updates for vulnerability signatures and for new OSG xml websites (so that it is easy to update the installed OSG)
  • Auto creation of websites based on live websites (using a web spider to craw the website and download the required files). Here is where the idea of the 'vulnerability modules' would came in handy since one could try to semi-automatically add the vulnerabilities to these websites

Integration with WebGoat and other Web Technologies

The idea here is to be able to use Site Generator's capability to create dynamic websites (based on XML files) with the vulnerabilities developed for Web Goat

Basically what I want is to be able to use Web Goat's vulnerabilities in OSG (OWASP Site Generator), which leverages the work done by WebGoat developers and exposes OSG users to a wider set of issues.

Since the idea here is to reuse code, the Web Goat OSG pages will need to be served from an Apache server. So what needs to be done for this to work is for somebody to write an Java/Apache equivalent to the C# Httpmodule/IIS that is used on the current OSG vulnerabilities

This component is quite simple since all that is basically doing (at this stage) is receiving all requests made to a particular website (lets say http://sitegenerator/websiteA/pageb.jsp ) and going to OSG (via TCP) and asking "what page does this request maps to?". OSG goes to the current loaded XML file and if there is a match it says: "that page maps to 'vulnerabilityDatabase\SQLInjectionExample\BlindSQLInjection.jsp"). with that information the apache server (in this example) will load that jsp page and send it to the client (without rewiring the URL (which is what creates the illusion of virtual OSG websites)).

Since the current WebGoat pages are designed for lessons, I expect to be some tweaking on its code , but the idea here is to keep the development of integrating these two projects to the minimum.

Exploitation Basics

Develop advanced exploits and modules with a fast-paced, practical learning guide to protect what's most important to your organization, all using the Metasploit Framework

(For more resources related to this topic, see here.)

Basic terms of exploitation

The basic terms of exploitation are explained as follows:

  • Vulnerability: A vulnerability is a security hole in software or hardware, which allows an attacker to compromise a system. A vulnerability can be as simple as a weak password or as complex as a Denial of Service attack.
  • Exploit: An exploit refers to a well-known security flaw or bug with which a hacker gains entry into a system. An exploit is the actual code with which an attacker takes advantage of a particular vulnerability.
  • Payload: Once an exploit executes on the vulnerable system and the system has been compromised, the payload enables us to control the system. The payload is typically attached to the exploit and delivered.
  • Shellcode: This is a set of instructions usually used as a payload when the exploitation occurs.
  • Listener: A listener works as component waiting for an incoming connection.

How does exploitation work?

We consider the scenario of a computer lab in which we have two students doing work on their computers. After some time one of the students goes out for a coffee break and he responsibly locks down his computer. The password for that particular locked computer is Apple, which is a very simple dictionary word and is a system vulnerability. The other student starts to attempt a password guessing attack against the system of the student who left the lab. This is a classic example of an exploit. The controls that help the malicious user to control the system after successfully logging in to the computer are called the payload.

We now come to the bigger question of how exploitation actually works. An attacker basically sends an exploit with an attached payload to the vulnerable system. The exploit runs first and if it succeeds, the actual code of the payload runs. After the payload runs, the attacker gets fully privileged access to the vulnerable system, and then he may download data, upload malware, virus', backdoors, or whatever he wants.

A typical process for compromising a system

For compromising any system, the first step is to scan the IP address to find open ports and its operating system and services. Then we move on to identifying a vulnerable service and finding an exploit in Metasploit for that particular service. If the exploit is not available in Metasploit, we will go through the Internet databases such as www.securityfocus.com, www.exploitdb.com, www.1337day.com, and so on. After successfully finding an exploit, we launch the exploit and compromise the system.

The tools that are commonly used for port scanning are Nmap (Network Mapper), Autoscan, Unicorn Scan, and so on. For example, here we are using Nmap for scanning to show open ports and their services.

First open the terminal in your BackTrack virtual machine. Type in nmap –v –n and press Enter to scan. We use the –v parameter to get verbose output and the –n parameter to disable reverse DNS resolutions.

Here we can see the results of Nmap, showing three open ports with their services running on them. If we need more detailed information such as the service version or Operating System type, we have to perform an intense scan using Nmap. For an intense scan, we use the command nmap –T4 –A –v This shows us the complete results of the service version and the Operating System type.

The next step is to find an exploit according to the service or its version. Here, we can see that the first service running on port number 135 is msrpc, which is known as Microsoft Windows RPC. Now we will learn how to find an exploit for this particular service in Metasploit. Let's open our terminal and type in msfconsole to start Metasploit. On typing in search dcom, it searches all of the Windows RPC related exploits in its database.

In the following screenshot, we can see the exploit with its description and also the release date of this vulnerability. We are presented with a list of exploits according to their rank. From the three exploits related to this vulnerability, we select the first one since it is the most effective exploit with the highest rank. Now we have learned the technique of searching for an exploit in Metasploit through the search <service name> command.

Finding exploits from online databases

If the exploit is not available in Metasploit, then we have to search the Internet exploit databases for that particular exploit. Now we will learn how to search for an exploit on these online services such as www.1337day.com. We open the website and click on the Search tab. As an example, we will search for exploits on the Windows RPC service.

Now we have to download and save a particular exploit. For this, just click on the exploit you need.

After clicking on the exploit it shows the description of that exploit. Click on Open material to view or save the exploit.

The usage of this exploit is provided as a part of the documentation in the exploit code as marked in the following screenshot:

Now we will be exploiting our target machine with the particular exploit that we have downloaded. We have already scanned the IP address and found three open ports. The next step would be to exploit one of those ports. As an example, we will target the port number 135 service running on this target machine, which is msrpc. Let us start by compiling the downloaded exploit code. To compile the code, launch the terminal and type in gcc <exploit name with path> -o<exploitname>. For example, here we are typing gcc –dcom –o dcom.

After compiling the exploit we have a binary file of that exploit, which we use to exploit the target by running the file in the terminal by typing in ./<filename>.

From the preceding screenshot, we can see the requirements for exploiting the target. It requires the target IP address and the ID (Windows version). Let's have a look at our target IP address.

We have the target IP address, so let's start the attack. Type in ./dcom 6

The target has been exploited and we already have the command shell. Now we check the IP address of the victim machine. Type in ipconfig.

The target has been compromised and we have actually gained access to it.

Now we will see how to use the internal exploits of Metasploit. We have already scanned an IP address and found three open ports. This time we target port number 445, which runs the Microsoft-ds service.

Let us start by selecting an exploit. Launch msfconsole, type in use exploit/windows/smb/ms08_067_netapi, and press Enter.

The next step will be to check the options for an exploit and what it requires in order to perform a successful exploitation. We type in show options and it will show us the requirements. We would need to set RHOST ( remote host), which is the target IP address, and let the other options keep their default values.

We set up the RHOST or the target address by typing in set RHOST

After setting up the options, we are all set to exploit our target. Typing in exploit will give us the Meterpreter shell.

The following are some helpful references that shed further light on some of the topics covered in this article:

In this article, we covered the basics of vulnerability, a payload, and some tips on the art of exploitation. We also covered the techniques of how to search for vulnerable services and further query the Metasploit database for an exploit. These exploits were then used to compromise the vulnerable system. We also demonstrated the art of searching for exploits in Internet databases, which contain zero-day exploits on software and services.

Flower Market Shawl

The design for this shawl was inspired by the enormous flower markets you can find in most large cities. The body is an all-over floral lace pattern and the border is reminiscent of bouquets of flowers, fresh from the market, still wrapped in newsprint.

The Flower Market Shawl is a triangular shawl with a garter stitch border. It is knit from the center back to the bottom edge, with increases at each edge and along the center stitch.

Finished size: 51 inches x 30 inches (size is dependent upon gauge and how severely you block it)

Notions: yarn needle, stitch markers (4), blocking pins/wires

The pattern includes both chart instructions and full written instructions.

The suggested yarn is Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light (2 skeins, color: Tart) or you may substitute approx 600 yards of any fingering weight yarn.

Gauge is not crucial since this is not a fitted garment but changes in gauge can affect both the size of the shawl and the amount of yarn required to complete it.

Pattern Detail

  • Lace pattern is both written and charted
  • no schematics
  • no sewing
  • all season
  • straight (flat), no sewing
  • one size: 51 inches x 30 inches

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will I have problems after surgery?
A: Most people do not experience serious problems after weight loss surgery. About 10 percent of patients may have some sort of minor complication with less than 5 percent turning into a life-threatening situation.

Q: How long will it take me to recover from surgery?
A: Although it varies from patient to patient, recovery from weight loss surgery usually takes between two and four weeks. However, it is not unusual for many patients to feel weak and tired for six weeks after the surgery because they are eating much less than before. Most people feel good enough to return to work within two to four weeks after their weight loss surgery.

Q: Why is activity so important after surgery?
A: We ask patients to get out of bed and begin moving around as soon as possible after surgery to reduce the risk of complications such as blood clots and pneumonia—the two most serious possible side effects.

Q: If I have constipation after surgery, what should I do?
A: The best remedy for constipation is to drink plenty of fluids. If you need to, you can also take a liquid stool softener until the problem is relieved.

Q: Will I feel sick after surgery?
A: Some patients will feel nauseated after surgery. Again, this varies from person to person. Patients are given a prescription for medicine to help with nausea if they should need it at home.

Q: Can I drink alcohol after surgery?
A: We discourage drinking alcoholic beverages for at least a year after weight loss surgery because alcohol can irritate the surgical site.

Q: Can I smoke after surgery?
A: No. Smoking- both tobacco and marijuana- results in a less oxygen in the bloodstream and can lead to stomach ulcers.

Q: What should I do if I can’t keep anything down, including water?
A: You need to call the office and let the doctor or nurse know or be evaluated in the emergency room. If vomiting is associated with severe abdominal pain, call the Oregon Bariatric Center or go to the nearest emergency room.
Q: How much weight will I lose after surgery?
A: This varies from patient to patient, but in general, you can expect to shed between 50 percent and 75 percent of your excess body weight over the course of 12 to 18 months.

Q: Does weight loss surgery affect a woman’s chances of becoming pregnant?
A: Usually this is not a problem. We recommend that women who have had weight loss surgery wait to have children for at least one to two years after surgery in order to maximize weight loss. Patients must remember to take the recommended vitamin supplements when considering pregnancy and work closely with an obstetrician and dietician.

Q: I’ve heard some people experience hair loss after surgery. Will this happen to me?
A: Hair loss is related to weight loss and not everyone experiences it. However, if you notice that you are losing hair, we recommend that you increase your protein intake.

How to calculate gas flow rate through a system?

  1. The pressure at the start of a 180km stainless steel natural gas pipeline is 4MPa and at the end is 2MPa. if the diameter is 0.4m, what will be the gas flow rate through the system?
    (ignore losses other than friction, ρ= 40 kg/m^3, μ= 11x10^-6 Pa)

    Could anybody please point me in the right direction on how I actually do this question?
    I have done questions where we were asked the mass flow rate before but we were not given values for pressure etc in them. I know that i have to use the moody diagram but do not know what to do with the pressure values given.
    Also came across this formula in my notes: μ = [(∏*d^4)/(128*Q*l)]*(P1-P2) but surely it could not be that easy?

    Thanks for any help in advance!

  3. You might have to do it by iterations.
    Start -assume a friction factor - Pick a random flow rate ( or velocity ) - find Reynolds number - calculate pressure drop - does it match - yes you are done - if not increase or decrease flow rate depending upon calculated pressure drop and go back to start.

    How close should the match be - I guess you decide but 1% to 5% should be OK and how many iterations you would like to do, Afterall you are ignoring losses other than friction, so maybe a resulting flow on the low side would be more reasonable.

  4. I think "bits" is correct. This problem requires an iterative solution. Basically the pipe pressure drop equals the head loss (h-L). To calculate h-L assume a velocity, calculate Re, look up (or calculate) a friction factor. Compare h_l to ΔP. If ΔP≠h-L, assume new velocity. If you don't like looking up the friction factor from the moody diagram you can use the Colebrook equation (assumes you are in the nonlaminar range) which as empirical fit for the Moody diagram.
  5. The units of dynamic viscosity are Pa*s

    Forget the Colebrook equation. Plug in all your constants and you get a simple equation in the form const=f*v^2 where f is the friction factor and v is velocity.Get your moody diagram out. Look up the absolute roughness ε for stainless steel pipe and calculate ε/D. Assume a reasonable velocity for natural gas in a pipe. Calculate Re, look up f from Moody diagram. See if f*v^2 = the constant. If it doesn't, assume another value for v, calculate Re, look up new f. You get the idea. After 3-4 iterations you will approach the correct value of velocity and can calculate the mass flow rate.

Between this and the birds tattoo, this one is a must. Someday. Not sure if it'd be the wrist or not, I want something I can conceal. When I had a m/c before my second daughter, my oldest daughter and I sat in the yard and blew on dandelions wishing for a baby. Maybe I'll make a painting instead?

I would get this but have it also say, "I carry your heart with me, I carry it in my heart, I am never with out it"

Layer Styles

8 posts / 0 new
Last post
Layer Styles

A layer style is one or more effects that are applied to a layer. You can find 10 different effects that can customize with from color, opacity, etc. You can save the layer style you created as an ASL file, which you can use on other layers.

You can also find a lot of styles on the internet. Some for purchase and a lot of free styles.
Do you know of any web sites?

Have you used layer styles.
How have you used your styles.

Oddly, I didn't learn about layer styles until relatively recently (maybe in the last 2-3 years..out of, like, 10? lol). But they're so helpful when trying to edit non-destructively! I use them constantly when I'm editing text (especially since Stroke allows for more flexibility in how "bold" letters are), and I LOVE having the ability to copy-paste the same effect on several different layers.

I haven't found myself downloading too many from other folks yet, but I do have a few from StarSunflower (link to her freebie styles is here). It was actually in tweaking one of those styles that I stumbled across my now-favorite method of making something look like a slightly-dimensional sticker! smiley I often use both actions and layer styles that I download as learning tools as much as anything - Photoshop is such a vast program, I feel like everyone has slightly different areas that they know well!

Here are some samples of how I used styles.

Here I selected a part of the picture and created a layer mask, refined the mask with a layer style. Than used a background to offset the layout.

Next I created a border towards the edge of the picture. Than used another style to add an outer color.

For this last one I selected the couple, refined the selection to feather the edges. This took the busy background out of the picture and brought more emphasis to the couple. Last the picture was placed on a background.

What have you used styles on?

I save the 'Drop Shadows' that I create and add to certain items, repeatedly. I save them to a folder of my own stuff. If I label the style to the type of image the drop shadow was added to, I can save all my Drop Shadows and use them as I need them. A label, for instance, might be 'Lace', 'Card Stock', or 'Ribbon-Thick'.

These can be found for sale in some of the designers' stores. But, really, you can create your own as you go.

A good source for all kinds of styles is Cesstrelle.DeviantArt or her blog, HG Designs.

Y'all are a wealth of information - I did not know you could save a drop shadow and I always think of layer styles for text. Great info - can't wait to try!

I use layer styles all the time, especially for shadowing and recoloring (color overlay). I downloaded a few shadow-styles, but I tend to use these almost always:

She also has a really-really-really AWESOME tutorial on the same page that takes your shadowing to the next level, trust me! I have learned so much from her! Oh, and; if you are there anyway: checkout all the other freebies on her site. She makes a different one every Friday, and a free template every Tuesday.

I also downloaded some ASL files for applying Glitter from Eyeinspire, who has a lot of great styles for free, and CU ok! Check this:

I also used Photoshop for a long time before I figured out that you could save styles. It makes adding shadows to things so much easier. I have a little tutorial here if you need help loading or saving your styles.

I see this is another area where I'm going to need to do some research and experimenting. I'm excited to check out some of the links and get started. smiley

A Child Within Us Wants to Talk

Many of us have an ”inner child” or an “inner younger part” who has not been heard, seen, or treated in a healthy nurturing way. As a result, whether it is an inner child, adolescent, or younger adult, feelings of being ignored, abandoned, or not loved may be retained. The memories of these unresolved feelings are carried into our adult life and often become buried in the subconscious. However, the “inner younger part” remains waiting to be found, to be listened to and to be nurtured, and keeps acting out in attempt to be discovered and attended to.

Anna described having a deep sense of loneliness and depression. As she was searching for the answers to where these feelings originated, she used a visualization technique to contact her “inner child” and received an image of herself when she was nine years old. Her little girl was feeling lonely, bored, and sad while waiting in her room for her mother to arrive home from work. However, because her mother was wrapped up in her own worries and fatigue she had become blind to her daughter’s needs. During this time “little Anna” came to a few conclusions about herself, her parents, and the world around her. One conclusion was that she had to stay busy to distract herself from her pain. The other decision she made was to please her mother as much as she could in hope of getting attention and being loved in return. A pattern of having to please everyone and staying busy had been ingrained in her mind and remained with her to the current day. She eventually forgot where these habits came from.

Anna decided to communicate with her “inner child” on a regular basis. Building a connection with her inner child took time and trust but after a while they both formed a beautiful relationship. Finally, little Anna was heard and was able to express herself. Although Anna’s childhood did not change, her habits and perceptions altered because she recognized that her habits were simply coping techniques that were formed in the past and had no functions anymore. As her relationship with herself improved, so did her feelings of lonesomeness, her relationships with others and the world around her changed in return.

Susanne Babbel, PHD

Depending on a child’s age, he or she does not always interpret their environment and parents’ actions correctly. When uniting with the inner child, false memories can be uncovered and give the child a chance to understand and make sense of something that was misunderstood in the past. For example, a pregnant mother told the story of her 4-year-old daughter Sophia who believed that she no longer was needed because her sister was going to be born in a few months. In a straightforward way Sophia claimed that it wouldn't matter if she died. The surprised mother told Sophia that it would matter and that she is the best thing that ever happened to her. Her daughter replied "but you have Mikaela now," to which the mother explained that Mikaela could never replace her and that she could love both of them. Children are not always able to make sense of their situation the way an adult can and therefore sometimes form beliefs that are not based on reality but their conceptual ability.

Many leading authors such as John Bradshaw, Erika J. Chopich and Margaret Paul, Whitfield and 12 step programs have written about the importance of building a relationship with the “inner child” and found that it can help with many issues including loneliness, fears, depression and raising confidence. The journey of discovering younger parts within us can be surprising and awkward at first but may also be very rewarding.

Shop Girl Pattern

The cute flower block I used in this quilt is called the Nebraska Windmill, and until now, was only made with templates, and sewn with a “Y” seam. Hhmmm….I really didn’t want to make it that way, so I re-drafted the block using a rectangular Connector Corner! Much easier! Oh, and Shop Girl is dedicated to all of those shop owners out there who do such a great job of stocking the best fabrics, and creating an inviting, inspiring, and creative place for us to gather. Quilt measures approx 64" x 82"

Local, State Governments' Assets Causing Budgetary Pains

Why all levels of government should apply the "Yellow Pages Test" to its activities

Leonard Gilroy and John Palatiello
July 3, 2012

For a moment, let's accept President Obama's recent statement on its face value: "the private sector is doing fine. Where we're seeing weaknesses in our economy have to do with state and local government, oftentimes cuts initiated by, you know, governors or mayors who are not getting the kind of help that they have in the past from the federal government and who don't have the same kind of flexibility of the federal government in dealing with fewer revenues coming in."

This begs some important questions, such as why are state and local governments weak, and why aren't they getting help from the federal government?

First and foremost, the federal government is in no position to help.  It is running a $1.3 trillion deficit and a $15.7 trillion national debt.  And it already did "help." Despite talk of shovel-ready projects and infrastructure spending, much of the $787 billion "stimulus" actually went to states and localities to simply prop up their budgets, but that one-shot money was used as a stop gap, rather than for longer term structural reform.

Like their federal counterpart, states and localities are paying the price of years of profligate spending.  Extravagant spending on programs that are neither the core mission of government nor "inherently governmental" nature is now coming home to roost.

For too many years, government at all levels has failed to apply the "Yellow Pages Test".  That is a simple process of getting government out of activities and lines of business that are commercial in nature and otherwise available from private enterprise - businesses on Main Street USA and listed in the yellow pages of the phone book. When governments opt to conduct these activities in-house-with the lavish pay and retirement benefits for public employees that do the work-then they are taking away economic opportunities for the private sector and making government unnecessarily bigger than it needs to be.

The federal government has approximately 2 million employees (excluding men and women in military uniform, or the Postal Service).  Of that workforce, the inventories prepared by agencies pursuant to the Federal Activities Inventory reform (FAIR) Act, Public Law 105-270 show that more than 850,000 are in positions that are commercial in nature - e.g., Yellow Pages jobs.  Few of these jobs have ever been studied for private sector performance, despite explicit federal policy directives in place since the Eisenhower Administration.  Subjecting these positions to a public-private competition would save an estimated $27 billion a year, even if they stay inside the government.

Recent studies have shown federal compensation exceeds counterpart pay in the private sector.  The Heritage Foundation estimates parity would save another $47 billion.  Americans for Tax Reform estimates that during the career of each federal employee, $4.27 million will be paid out in salary and benefits.  The federal payroll is growing, not shrinking, in part due to an Obama Administration initiative called "insourcing" - canceling contracts with private companies, bringing the work back into the government, and converting private enterprise workers into government employees.

An excess of government workers is not uniquely a federal problem.  Years of over-employment by states and localities have left these governments with an unfunded pension liability of up to $3 trillion, according to the Congressional Budget Office. And like Uncle Sam, the 50 states, 3,100 counties and 7,900 cities, towns, and villages are in dire straits because they are engaged in activities they had no "business" getting into in the first place. Here are just a few examples:

Similar examples abound. Government employees are making maps, designing roads, managing web sites, writing software, serving meals, mowing lawns, painting walls, washing clothes, and doing thousands of other tasks that have little to do with governing.  The government is the nation's largest banker, insurer, homeowner, landlord, utility provider, as well as bus, transit, and passenger train operator.  Despite much lip service paid by policymakers to the benefits of private, competitive enterprise, the Yellow Pages Test is largely ignored in practice.

Contrast this with Sandy Springs, Georgia, an Atlanta suburb of 94,000 residents and a public payroll of seven employees.  The New York Times recently noted, "With public employee unions under attack in states like Wisconsin, and with cities across the country looking to trim budgets, behold a town built almost entirely on a series of public-private partnerships - a system that leaders around here refer to, simply, as "the model." Cities have dabbled for years with privatization, but few have taken the idea as far as Sandy Springs. Since the day it incorporated, Dec. 1, 2005, it has handed off to private enterprise just about every service that can be evaluated through metrics and inked into a contract."

Sandy Springs proves that many functions in government can be handled effectively by the private sector, a lesson policymakers at all levels should learn from. Further, it should concern every American taxpayer that all states, counties and cities receive federal funds, so their failure to prioritize-and limit government to core, inherently governmental activities-is rewarded, indeed subsidized, by the Feds.

As Reason Foundation has long recommended, government at every level should conduct a current, accurate inventory of its real property assets, and sell those that are luxuries rather than necessities.  This will not only generate revenue, but eliminate future operating expenditures.  All governments should also carry out a commercial activities inventory and apply the Yellow Pages Test, or the Sandy Springs Test, across their agencies to identify non-core activities undertaken by public employees that are commercial in nature, and thus, could be subject to private sector competition to lower costs.

Such reviews of assets and services would amount to a healthy spring cleaning to help streamline and right-size government to fit the "new normal" of fiscal restraint. If this is done, then the private sector, state and local government, and taxpayers would have a much better chance of "doing fine".

John Palatiello is the President of the Business Coalition for Fair Competition. Leonard Gilroy is director of government reform at Reason Foundation.

  • ROS and wet sanding????

    I have been reading about getting rid of rust on the table tops with WD-40 and the ROS and/or wet sanding it with the ROS. Is it safe to use this electric tool with water or WD-40? Seems to me fluids are not a good combination with a random orbit sander.
    Are you Rapture ready? Know Jesus Christ or know his enemy!

  • #2
    Never use water with your power tools. Using WD-40 is OK, but I normally move the sanding disk so that nothing gets sucked up in the holes, and one should normally just use a scotchbrite pad and use the ROS to hold it down and spin it.

    WD-40 will not hurt the tools. In fact, many lubricants are electrically non conductive. For example, one of the lubricants I use at work (LPS1) works well at displacing moisture and I spray on my contacts for the fan motors and compressors on our HVAC units.

Testing nanoparticles

Testing many nanoparticles at once may lead to a faster route to medical applications

7:01pm, May 12, 2008

Testing nanoparticles for toxic effects could become faster and cheaper with a new highly mechanized technique described online in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Several types of nanometer-sized particles are now approved for medical use, including magnetic nanoparticles to enhance contrast in imaging techniques such as MRI. Researchers are also experimenting with nanoparticles that could better target a drug to a specific part of the body, among other applications.

But nano-sized particles often interact in unpredictable ways with biological molecules and cells. Before a new medical product can be approved, it has to undergo lengthy and expensive trials, first in lab dishes and then in animals and humans, to test for possible toxic effects as well as efficacy.
