Costa Dorada Weather April Averages, Spain
What's the weather like in Costa Dorada in April?
April begins a true warm up for both overnight lows and afternoon highs and also begins a great time to visit Spain. With warming temperatures and a drier period on the way, vacationers may expect to pay a little more for both hotels and also flights. These higher prices may also get extended to other areas such as restaurants as well.
While temperatures are warming on land, the sea is also beginning to catch up. After several months of consistent temperatures, the average sea temperature in April has climbed to 15°C (59°F). This is still too cool for many people, however, a few brave souls may decide to head out to the waves with the help of a wetsuit.
Meanwhile, on land, both overnight lows and afternoon highs are beginning to warm with summer just around the corner. Vacationers may still want to pack something lightweight but warm for the early morning hours and consult an extended forecast before leaving home. The average afternoon high for the month in Costa Dorada is a pleasant 20°C (68°F). This is warm enough for short sleeves especially when visitors can also spend some time in the 11 hours of sunshine that is expected each day. Temperatures first thing in the morning will bottom out at 10°C (50°F). These temperatures are much warmer than what they were just a few months ago. Overall, the average daily temperature is 15°C (59°F) at this time of the year.
Rainfall continues to be hard to come by as only 30mm of precipitation are expected over the course of the month. This rain falls over an average of 5 days and there is only a 20 percent chance of rain for the time period. Clouds and rain are short lived as the chance of a sunny day is still 100 percent.

Down south in the city of Tarragona the highlight of the Holy Week celebration is the procession of the Holy Burial on Good Friday.

Meanwhile, the town of Olesa de Monstserrat is renowned for its La Passio de Olesa or Passion Play. In 1996, 726 persons acted onstage at the same time during the Passion Play so you can just imagine how the people here put all their hearts into the occasion.

Diade de Sant Jordi
On the 23rd of the month, the cities, towns or counties of Catalonia celebrate the Diada de Sant Jordi.

For insolvent companies, being served a winding up petition is a very real possibility. The procedure can be used by creditors as a means of trying to recover a debt they are owed. Being on the receiving end of a winding up petition can be catastrophic for a company, and stressful for the directors.
If a winding up petition is allowed to run its course, it will result in the closing of a company regardless of its directors' wishes. Given the severity of this procedure, directors would be wise to understand how it works, especially if their company is facing insolvency.
In this article, Clarke Bell will discuss the winding up petition procedure, how it impacts limited companies, and what you can do to prevent your company from receiving a winding up petition.
What is a winding up petition?
Winding up petitions are a legal procedure available to creditors of companies when they are owed money. If they so choose, these creditors can submit a winding up petition to the courts, which will decide whether action should be taken. If the court approves it, the company in question will be served a winding up order, beginning the process of compulsory liquidation.
Winding up petitions are not the first port of call for creditors looking to recover debts. It is a stressful and time-consuming procedure from a creditor's perspective, one that doesn't always result in a positive outcome. Bridges will be burned, the company in question closed, and creditors may well only receive a part of their debt for their trouble. Additionally, winding up petitions aren't cheap, with the procedure costing upwards of £3,000. As such, creditors generally turn to a winding up petition when all other options have failed.
How does a winding up petition work?
A winding up petition has a fairly lengthy process that can take anywhere from 2-4 months. The process is broken up into several key steps that must be followed in sequence for the petition to be valid. These steps are as follows:
- The first step is for one or more creditors to sign a winding up petition, then submit it to the relevant court. For companies with a share capital in excess of £120,000, then the signatories will submit the petition to the High Court. If not, then the petition should be sent to the local court nearest the company's registered head office.
- Once the winding up petition has been submitted, the case will be considered by the courts. If approved, the petition will be served to the company in question's head office. This starts the winding up process in earnest, and begins a countdown to a court hearing.
- Creditors that signed the petition must publish it in the Gazette no more than seven days after the company receives the order.
- Relevant documents, such as a copy of the Gazette notice, must be filed with the appropriate court at least five days in advance of the court hearing.
- The final step of the winding up petition process is the hearing itself. In this hearing, both the petitioners and representatives of the company can speak, offering whatever evidence they may have to support their case.
There are two possible outcomes of this hearing; either the court sides with the petitioners and places the company into compulsory liquidation, or it sides with the company and allows it to remain in operation.
Can a winding up petition be reversed?
It is possible for companies to stop a winding up petition. The simplest option is to repay outstanding debts. However, for insolvent companies, this is not possible. Instead, the directors may be better off negotiating with outstanding creditors. This won't necessarily remove the possibility of a winding up petition, but communicating with creditors can help delay a petition until you can improve your company's finances. A Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) could be an option if you choose this approach.
Using a CVL to prevent a winding up petition
A Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation is a voluntary insolvency procedure that allows directors to close their companies of their own accord. The procedure can be invaluable to insolvent companies, offering several key benefits that allow directors to reach a positive outcome.
As a voluntary procedure, directors of insolvent companies may appoint an insolvency practitioner of their choice to the role of liquidator. This liquidator will be responsible for the execution of the CVL, and will take control over the company to do so. The liquidator will identify any company assets, dispose of them for as high a value as possible, and distribute the proceeds amongst outstanding creditors. Once all funds have been dispersed, the company will be wound up and removed from the Companies House register. Any debts that remain after this point will be written off, assuming none are secured by personal guarantees.
While CVLs are excellent tools for closing insolvent companies, they offer more than just an efficient method of voluntary liquidation. One of the main benefits is that the procedure is voluntary. This demonstrates the directors' willingness to act in the interests of their company's creditors. This makes it difficult for accusations of misconduct to stick, and provides a strong defence should they ever make it to the courts.
Closing your company with a CVL is often the best option if you believe your creditors are planning to serve a winding up petition and you cannot pay the debts.

Socket 370
Definition - What does Socket 370 mean?
Socket 370 is the receptacle (CPU socket) for the 370-pin Intel Pentium III, Intel Celeron and VIA Cyrix III processor. The 370 replaced the more expensive slot 1 Pentium II CPU interface on personal computers. It is designed for ease of manufacture and allows users to easily upgrade microprocessors.
Socket 370 is also known as the PGA370 socket.
Techopedia explains Socket 370
The socket 370 is the same size as the socket 7, but with a different voltage and number of pins. The 370 has a zero insertion force socket, which includes a lever opening and closing to secure the processor.
Mechanical load limits on the socket 370 processor interface with the motherboard are critical during heat sink assembly, shipping conditions or standard use. If loads are exceeded, the processor die may crack, making it unusable. Maximums on the die surface are 200 lbf (pound-force) dynamic and 50 lbf static. The maximums on the die edge are 100 lbf dynamic and 12 lbf static. These are quite small compared to the mechanical load limits on the socket 478 processors.

text: This paper proposes an innovative contactless hand geometry recognition system. We present a novel hand tracking approach to automatically detect and capture the geometrical features of the hand from low resolution video stream. No constraint is imposed and the subject can place his/her hand naturally on top of the sensor without touching any device. Conventional hand geometry systems require fairly precise positioning of the hand in order to obtain accurate measures of the hand. However, the proposed contactless approach does not fix any guidance pegs to help placing the hand at the right position when the image is acquired. As a result, the hand image may appear larger when the hand is placed near the sensor, and vice versa. Besides, the hand can be positioned at different angles. In other words, there is no way to obtain standard and constant hand measurements from this contactless setting. This research aims to deal with this complication when we have to get accurate measurements of the hand from images with varying sizes and directed at different orientations. Experiments show that our proposed method offers promising result for hand geometry recognition in a real-time contactless environment.

Diversified miner Anglo American has announced its plans to divest its thermal coal operations in South Africa (SA) and Colombia.
According to a Reuters report, the company plans to exit Colombia's Cerrejon thermal coal mine within one and half to two years. The plan also includes divesting SA thermal coal assets within two and half years.
The step comes as the British multinational miner aims to achieve carbon neutrality across its operations by the year 2040.
In a meeting with investors, Anglo American highlighted its sustainability efforts amid increasing pressure on the mining industry to reduce carbon footprint.
CEO Mark Cutifani was quoted by the news agency as saying: "With the bulk of (growth) options in copper, PGMs, and now also crop nutrients, we are increasingly positioned to supply those metals and minerals that enable a cleaner, greener, more sustainable world."
In 2021, Anglo American expects that the production for all minerals will increase by 14%, while unit costs will drop by 3%.
The company is expected to spend between $5.7bn and $6.2bn next year.
Additionally, the miner expects to produce around 890,000 to one million tonnes of copper in 2023, with the Quellaveco project in Peru expected to commence production in 2022.
Through its carbon neutrality strategy, Anglo American seeks to Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, specifically. The company also expects that eight of its assets will reach the carbon neutrality goal by 2030.

How do you move the CSC folder to another location on a Windows 7 computer?
How do you move the CSC folder to another location on a Windows 7 computer?
The default location of the Offline Folders cache is %systemroot%\csc. If you need to move this cache to another location on your computer for some reason, follow these steps:
1. Set the following REG_DWORD registry key to a value of 1:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CSC\Parameters\MigrationParamters
Doing this ensures that all items in the cache are migrated (the default behavior is to migrate only dirty items).
2. Run the Windows Easy Transfer wizard. Once the data has been scanned, a Customize link is displayed. Click this link and make sure that Windows Settings is checked for all items displayed in the list.
3. Once you have collected the data, set the following String registry key to specify the new cache location:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CSC\Parameters\CacheLocation
For example, to move the cache to a folder named CSCCache on your D: drive, specify the following value:
\??\D:\CSCCache
4. Now reboot your computer, run the Easy Transfer wizard again and apply the previously gathered files. Then reboot one more time when prompted by the wizard.

Hitchhiker in Luxembourg (1977)
Hitchhiking is a way that people can travel from one place to another. Usually, a hitchhiker (a person who hitchhikes) will stand at the side of a road and hold his or her thumb in the air waiting for the car to come and pick her or him up. This is a sign that he or she wants a car to stop and pick him/her up. The distance traveled by hitchhiking can be anywhere from walking distance to across a continent. Hitchhiking is against the law in some areas (for example around a prison in the United States).
It was a very common way of travelling in Europe in the 1970s and is still done by many people all over the world.

How fast do Red-Tail Boas grow?
Add your answer...
1 Answer
Depending on the genetics of the snake, it's normal for a Red-Tail Boa to grow 2 feet per year. When they are born, they are usually 15-18 inches in length (depending on what subspecies it is), and they will grow on an average of about 2 inches per month. Again, this is all dependant on their genes and scientific classification. more

How to Make a Sock Monkey
A sock monkey is an iconic toy that almost every child would love to have. To make this toy even more special for a deserving child, one can make their own using a few simple materials. You do not even need to be a very crafty person to create a beautiful toy.
- 1 pair of knee length socks
- Polyester toy stuffing
- Needle or sewing machine
- Thread (coordinate with the sock color)
- Fabric marking pen
- Buttons (if the monkey is for a young child, consider using embroidery thread)
1. Lay one inside out sock with the heel out flat and facing down. Find the center line of the foot from the toe to about an inch from the heel and mark it. Beginning at the toe, sew a seam 1/4" from the center line up the foot and then back down the other side. Carefully cut up the center line, creating the legs.
2. Turn sock right-side out and stuff the entire sock. Use needle and thread to sew around the neck area. Slightly cinch together to create a neck. Finish stuffing the head and sew the top together.
3. Using the second sock cut out pieces for the arms, mouth, tail and ears. The upper part can be cut into to pieces, seamed and stuffed to form the arms. The mouth is created by cutting off the heel and whip-stitching to the face while adding stuffing for shape. The tail is formed from a 1 inch strip with a rounded end. Seam the edges together and stuff. Cut 4 small ear shapes from the remainder of the sock, seam and stuff.
4. Attach the arms, tail and ears to the body. Sew on buttons for the eyes. Because small buttons can be a choking hazard for little children, consider using embroidery thread to stitch eyes when the toy is for a child under the age of 3. A smile can also be embroidered on the mouth.
5. A small hat can be made for the monkey using the toe of the second sock. Simply roll up the cut edge to create a small brim and tack to the monkey's head using a few small stitches.
If you would rather use the original red heel socks that most sock monkeys are made from, just do a Google search for "sock monkey socks" and you will find them.

|FHWA > Policy Information > NHCCI > The Mathematics of the National Highway Construction Cost Index|
The Mathematics of the National Highway Construction Cost Index
This document specifies the methodology which serves as the basis for the development of the National Highway Construction Cost Index, (NHCCI).
General Methodology for Calculating the NHCCI
The Fisher Ideal Index formula is applied using a chain-type indexing methodology to produce the NHCCI. The specific implementation and reasons for choosing this specification are given in this section.
Step 1. Definition of price index
The price index, It, of a specific cost item of highway construction (such as cement) gives the price of that item in period t, (pt), relative term to its price in reference period 0, (p0). The mathematical expression of It is:
Where, c represents the cost of the item and q represents the quantity of the item.
Step 2. Aggregating individual cost items into a total construction cost index
For highway construction as a whole, however, the direct price (p) does not exist because the price is the product of cost divided by quantity and the quantities of highway construction cost items are measured in different units which are not directly comparable and not additive. Therefore, we cannot calculate the price index of highway construction as a whole by directly implementing equation (1).
One natural way to derive the price index of highway construction as a whole is to calculate it as the weighted average of price indexes of individual cost items.
Where, superscript n represent the nth cost item and wn represents the weight assigned to the nth cost item.
Step 3. Choice of index formula
As equation (2) shows, the aggregate price index for highway construction as a whole not only depends on the price indexes of the individual cost items of highway construction, but also depends on the weights assigned to the individual price indexes. Therefore, how to weight the individual price indexes is essential in calculating an aggregate price index, such as the NHCCI. The choice of weights also leads to the choice of index formula.
In the economic index literature, there are three well known index formulas. They are the Laspeyres Index, the Paasche Index and the Fisher Ideal Index. In equation form, they are:
(3) (Laspeyres price index)
(4) (Paasche price index)
(5) (Fisher price index)
All three price index formulas use quantities of individual cost items as weights to their respective prices in calculating the aggregate price index. However, the Laspeyres price index formula uses quantities of the base period (0) as weights, while the Paasche price index formula uses quantities of the current period (t) as weights. The Fisher price index is a geometric mean of the Laspeyres price index and the Paasche price index.
Despite its many obvious advantages, the Laspeyres price index has its limitations. One of the limitations is that it usually overstates the impact of price increases and understates the impact of price decreases as the current period moves further away from the base period. This occurs because of the substitution effect when prices change in relative terms. Agents substitute away from goods whose relative prices increase so that the base year weights overstate the relative importance of these goods in the budget. As a result, the use of quantities from an earlier period as weights systematically biases the aggregate price index upward from the real change in aggregate price. In contrast, an aggregate price index derived from the Paasche price index formula is usually biased downward due to the substitution effect.
A second limitation of the Laspeyres index as it is often implemented is that as time goes on the fixed base year become less relevant to the current year or the year(s) of concern. However, if the base year is shifted forward in time, the entire index series will be changed. In other words, history will be rewritten every time the base year is changed.
The Fisher Ideal index, proposed by Irving Fisher in 1922, is one of the superlative indexes that give good approximations to the theoretical or "exact" cost-of-living index and yet are relatively simple to compute and use. Compared to fixed-weighted Laspeyres or Paasche Indexes, Fisher Ideal index takes the weights of both the base period and the current period into account. By doing so, Fisher Ideal index has the ability to accommodate the effects of substitutions, something the Laspeyres and Paasche indexes do not do. A major advantage of Fisher Ideal index over other superlative indexes, such as the Tornquvist index, is its "dual" property, i.e. a Fisher Ideal price index implies a Fisher Ideal quantity index, and vice versa. In other words, the product of a Fisher Ideal price index between two periods and a Fisher Ideal quantity index between the same two periods is equal to the total change in value (measured in current dollars) between those two periods.
All these advantages strongly suggest that the Fisher Ideal index formula is an excellent choice for building the NHCCI.
Step 4. Calculating aggregate price index for two adjacent periods
Since the OSI Bid-Tabs database provides data on bid value and bid quantity and estimated bid price data for each cost item of highway constructions in the United States, we can apply the Fisher Ideal Index formula to the bid quantity and estimated bid price data from Bid-Tabs data at the cost item (or Pay Item) level to calculate the NHCCI.
However, each time when the Fisher Ideal Index formula is applied to the price and quantity data, one and only one index number will be generated for the two time periods the data represent. In other words, the formula will not generate a price index series at once. The time period can be a month, a quarter, or a year and is usually determined by the data availability. An index number can be generated between any two periods in time. The two periods can be adjacent to each other. They also can be far away from each other with many periods between them. However, in order to build an index that accurately track price changes from one period to the next over time, it will be necessary to generate an index number for every pair of adjacent periods of the entire time period for which an index is build.
Step 5. Chain index numbers of adjacent periods into a time series of indexes
From the equations, we can see that the R1 is the index number of period (1) relative to period (0); R2 is the index number of period (2) relative to period (1); and Rt is the index number of period (t) relative to period (t-1); and that each index number presents the aggregate price of the current period in relative term to the aggregate price of the previous period. Mathematicians call this kind of indexing relative indexing. In relative indexing, an index number highlights the change in price from the adjacent previous period.
However, to show price changes over time, it will be more effective to compare the price of each period to the price of the base period. When an index is calculated by comparing the concerned period directly to the base period, it is called "direct indexing". The procedure of direct indexing is a dual process. That is, while the price of the concerned period is indexed in terms relative to the price of the base period, the price of the base period is also indexed to 1 and only 1. Therefore, the value of a direct index is always in terms relative to 1 and equal to the change between the two periods. This property provides the mathematical underpinning for the "chain" index procedure.
When the price of the base period (0) is indexed to 1, the chained index numbers, I1 for period (1), I2 for period (2), …, and It for period (t), can be calculated as:
In words, the chained index number of any period (to the base period) can be calculated as the product of the consecutive multiplication of the changes of the adjacent periods between the base period and that period. For example, with the chain-type procedure and annual rates of changes (Rt), the index of year 1995 to year 1990 (I90,95) can be calculated as:
In summary, the Chained Fisher Ideal Index method for building the NHCCI contains two steps. In the first step, Fisher Ideal Index formula is used to calculate changes in aggregate price between adjacent periods with bid quantity and estimated bid price data at the cost item (or Pay Item) level from Oman Bid-Tabs database as inputs. This step is also an aggregation process. Changes in aggregate price of highway construction as a whole calculated in this way are essentially the averages of quantity weighted changes in the prices of the cost items of highway construction. In the second step, changes in aggregate price between adjacent periods are chained together through consecutive multiplication to form a time series of aggregate price index for highway construction as a whole.
The Chained Fisher Ideal Index method recognizes the need for estimating changes in the aggregate price of highway construction as a whole to use weights that are relevant and appropriate for the specific periods being measured. The Chained Fisher Ideal Index method has three important advantages over Fixed-Weighted Indexes. First, while it makes aggregation of price changes in many and different cost items into one measure through weighting, it captures the effects of changes in the relative importance of different cost items in highway construction over time. Second, it minimizes substitution bias and, at the same time, provides a more accurate track of price changes in highway construction cost items as a whole. Third, it eliminates the inconvenience and confusion associated with Fixed-Weighted Indexes of updating the weights and base periods, and thus rewriting economic history, as base periods move further and further into the past and become more and more irrelevant

I would like to have furred walls in my basement, how can I do this?
Furred walls are useful for finishing a basement area and to provide room for insulation. This can easily be represented using Chief Architect by using the furred wall setting.
In Chief Architect X7 and newer program versions, you may find it more effective to simply define a new wall type with multiple framing layers. For more information on this process, see the article on defining a new wall type in the Related Articles section below.
To build a foundation
If a foundation is not created, select Build> Floor> Build Foundation from the menu.
Specify the settings you desire in the Build Foundation dialog and click OK.
Choose the option to Derive new foundation plan from the 1st floor plan and click OK.
Using the Select Objects tool, hold down the Shift key on your keyboard and click on all walls you want to have furred.
This technique is called Group Select. It allows you to change all the walls at once instead of changing them one at a time.
Click on the Open Object edit tool to display the Wall Specification dialog for the selected walls.
On the Structure panel, make sure the Frame Through option is selected, and then click OK.
To create furred walls
Click Build> Wall> Straight Interior Wall to draw interior walls parallel to the exterior walls you want furred, but do not create an enclosed space or close the room.
If you create an enclosed space that has room definition inside another enclosed space, an invisible wall or room divider will appear to connect the island room. This can cause the furred designation we specify later to not work properly.
Using the Select Objects tool, hold down the Shift key on your keyboard, and click the interior walls to group select them, then click on the Open Object tool to display the Wall Specification dialog.
On the Structure panel, select the Furred Wall option to mark these as furred walls.
Now that the walls marked as furred, close the gap in the room. Notice that no invisible walls or room dividers display.
Using the Select Object tool, select each interior wall and move them so they bump up against the foundation walls.
If an opening, such as a Door or Window , is placed into a wall on the foundation level, we can see that it now cuts through both walls.

Checking if an Attribute Exists (essentially an "AttributeExists" Function)
Have you ever looked for a TM1 function that checks if an attribute exists, something like say "AttributeExists" or "AttrExists". Well there isn't one. But, don't dispair, here is a quick method you can use to do exactly that in a Turbo Integrator process.
I am writing a TI to build and then subsequently update a dimension. Right up front I am defining a bunch of variables, like the dimension name. Then I am using the DimensionExists function to check of the dimension actually exists, and if not, creating it using DimensionCreate. Finally I want to check if there is an attribute on that dimension and if not, create it.
Attribute Exists Code Example
Then I have a little bit of code that checks to see if an attribute exists and if not, then it is added. The code is:
## Check if Attributes Exist and if not, add them
vDimName = 'Product'
vAttribute1 = 'Name';
IF ( DIMIX ('}Element_Attributes_' | vDimName, vAttribute1 ) = 0);
 ATTRINSERT ( pDimName,'', vAttribute1 ,'s');
ENDIF;
What this is doing is defining the dimension and attribute. Then it uses a DIMIX to check if the attribute exists in the Control Object for the Element Attributes for the Dimension. Then if it the answer is no (a Zero), then it inserts the attribute into the dimension using ATTRINSERT. Note the type of attrubute is defined as String, Alias or Numeric (S, A or N).
So this is a really easy way of checking if an attribute exists and then adding it to a dimension without being able to use the non-existent AttributeExists function!
If you like this post, please spread the love…

If a document uses a Managed Metadata field, is there a way to make the term set browser in Word 2010's Document Information Panel display the term sets in a language other than the default language of the Managed Metadata Service? For instance, even if the document comes from a document library on a site created in French and opened with Word 2010 whose default display language is French, if the default language of the Managed Metadata Service is English, the Document Information Panel will display metadata in English. If you change the default language of the Managed Metadata Service, Word 2010 will follow the new default.
Is there a less drastic way to select this language within the DIP?

As far as I can test this, the answer is no. I have tried by checking the cache and playing with local language and remote language options and I cannot find a way around this. – Hugh Wood Nov 15 '12 at 13:51
1 Answer 1
According to Nick Hobbs, page 10 in the reference below, Managed Meta Data are not "compatible" with the Document Information Panel.
Clearly, there are some obvious stengths in linguistic management within metadata mamagement, and it would be even stronger, if document infromation panel would comprehend this feature.
However, a possible scenario could be to associate the desired field programatically to the regional variations of the selected terms... maybe another too drastic approach?

How motivations and satisfaction influence wine tourists' loyalty? An analysis of the Italian case
MetadataShow full item record
The purpose of this paper is to assess the "motivation-satisfaction-loyalty" framework. Through a structural equation model (SEM), it is possible to disentangle attitudinal and behavioral loyalty as a multifaceted latent variable. Design/methodology/approach: The empirical analysis is based on data collected in wineries located in two important wine destinations: Trentino and South Tyrol (Italy). Notably, the motivation–satisfaction relationship is confirmed, and the SEM has also assessed the importance of winery services in affecting loyalty, expressed in terms of "visit other cellars," "repeat a wine vacation" and "recommend wine routes." Findings: Destination managers should consider the wine-related "relaxation" as the main push motivation, while the interactions experience are important pull motivations to drive wine tourists' satisfaction. Nevertheless, the findings reveal that more proactive policies are needed to enhance local wines loyalty. Originality/value: The novelty of this study is to explore loyalty. In this respect, a multifaceted latent variable is expressed as follows: "buy local wines," "visit other cellars," "repeat a wine vacation" as behavioral attitudinal stated loyalty and "recommend wine routes" as attitudinal stated loyalty.

Police vs Private Investigations: What is the Difference?
Police and private investigation services may seem similar on the surface, but there are several key differences which influence the two roles and impact their scope of delivery.
The first, most identifiable difference, is legal authority. Police officials have the legal authority to detain witnesses and compel testimony, whereas private investigators are not law enforcement professionals. Therefore, private investigators are forced to get creative in their meticulous investigative techniques in order to gather information that can offer their clients sufficient evidence to support or disprove their claims.
Scope of Services
Generally speaking, police investigation services are limited to offences that are identified as crimes in South Africa. This means that private investigators are able to work on a broader scope of services, such as:
- Domestic/matrimonial investigations
- Investigations into individual activity
- Evidence gathering for adultery/infidelity suits
- Substance abuse suspicions
The South African Police Department is limited to an annual, tax-funded budget. This unfortunately means that some cases are not given the required resources needed to solve the case. The amount of cases also plays a big role, as there is often not enough time to be dedicated to individual cases. Private investigators, however, are paid by their clients. This gives them the opportunity to dedicate much-required resources and time in order to handle and solve each and every investigation.
Look no further than D&K Investigations and Risk Consultancy for all your private investigative needs. We provide a specialised range of investigation solutions to help you get the results you need, with zero limitations.


Red & White Spectators Shoes!
Red and White Spectator Shoes
The following selection features our popular Red and White Spectators Shoes styles.
(Click Here) Shop All Red and White Spectators Shoes Styles
The Spectator shoe (British English: Co-respondent shoe) is a style of low-heeled, oxford, semi brogue or full brogue constructed from two contrasting colors, typically having the toe and heel cap and sometimes the lace panels in a darker color than the main body of the shoe.[ This style of shoe dates from the nineteenth century but reached the height of popularity during the 1920s and 1930s.
Common color combinations include a white shoe body with black, brown tan toe and heel caps, but other colors can be used. The spectator is typically an all leather shoe, but can be constructed using a canvas, mesh or suede leathers.
For women, spectator pumps have been considered, during certain periods, to be very high fashion and a kind of dress shoe, After their loss of popularity in the early 1950s, when sling-backed and sandaled, thinner pumps became stylish, they returned to fashion in the early 1980s. Perennially favorite in England, their high-fashion appeal went with the polka dot and black-and-white, red-and-white, navy-and-white, etc. combination dress ensembles trendy during this time. With their white color, spectator shoes are most appropriate for women's spring and summer wear.
Spats (originally a contraction of spatterdashes) are a type of classic shoe accessory covering the instep and ankle. Spats were primarily worn in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Spats should not be confused with gaiters which are garments worn over the shoe and lower pants leg, and used primarily as protective equipment.
French infantry wore white spats for parade and off duty wear until 1903. Italian soldiers wore a light tan version until 1910 and the Japanese wore long white spats or guaiters during 1905.
Spats continue as a distinctive feature of the Scottish dress of Highland pipe bands, whether civilian or military. The modern Royal Regiment of Scotland, into which all Scottish line infantry regiments were amalgamated in 2006, retain white spats as part of their uniform. Prior to that date most Scottish infantry units in the British Army wore spats. For Highland regiments in kilts, spats reached halfway up the calf. For Lowland regiments in spats were visible only over the boots.
Most regiments of the modern Indian Armies wear long white spats into which trousers are tucked, as part of their parade dress. Other full dress uniforms which still include spats are those of the Finnish Army. In the Finnish Navy, spats are part of the winter uniform. The U.S. Navy Honor Guard and Rifle Guard still wear them while performing ceremonies.
Spats are still used as a traditional accessory in many marching band uniforms in the United States.
The Brogue wingtip is a style of low-heeled shoe or boot traditionally characterized by multiple-piece, sturdy leather uppers with decorative holes (or "broguing") and serration along the pieces' visible edges. Modern brogues trace their roots to a rudimentary shoe originating in Scottland and Ireland that was constructed using untanned hide with perforations that allowed water to drain from the shoes when the wearer crossed wet terrain such as a bog. Brogues were traditionally considered to be outdoor or country footwear not otherwise appropriate for casual or business occasions, but brogues are now considered appropriate in most contexts. Brogues are most commonly found in one of four toe cap styles (full or "wingtip", semi-, quarter and longwing) and four closure styles oxford, derby, ghillie and monk. Today, in addition to their typical form of sturdy leather shoes or boots, brogues may also take the form of business dress shoes and sneakers or any other shoe form that utilizes or evokes the multi-piece construction and perforated, serrated piece edges characteristic of brogues.

Where is the Set data type?
Hello! I'm new to Xojo and I'm tying to find the Set data type.
I've done a good bit of searching through the language reference and the forum, and I can't seem to find anything. Is it called something different in Xojo?
Thank you
That doesn't exist. The closest is a Dictionary, using just the Key with no corresponding Value.
var mySet as new Dictionary
mySet.Value( "a" ) = nil
mySet.Value( "b" ) = nil
mySet.Value( "A" ) = nil // Won't add it again
if mySet.HasKey( "b" ) then
 ...
end if
You could also design a class around this if you want a better or clearer API.
1 Like
its more or less a array where you add a value only once. and after that the values not change.
you could use extends to add this feature to an array, using a method to check
if value is not there, or create a simple class that simulate your set if you need 100% the same.
As I would understand it, one advantage of Kem's approach is that Searches (and establishing whether something is or is not a member) will be faster using a Dictionary than an Array. Searching in a large Dictionary using a Key is fast. Searching a large Array using a value is not so fast.
Thanks for the replies. Kem's solution seems to be the best, since using an array would forgo the runtime advantages of a dictionary.
@Kem, I have a question about line 4 of your example. Are string keys in Xojo case-insensitive?
From: _URL_
An object that contains a list of key-value pairs. Both keys and values are Variants. ASCII String keys are case-insensitive, but non-ASCII String keys can be case-sensitive. String keys are encoding-sensitive.
and
String Key Differences
Dictionaries use hashes for their lookup functions. Because of this, string keys need to match exactly; otherwise the dictionary will not consider them equal. The only exception to this rule is with regard to string case. The characters "a" and "A" are treated as identical in dictionary keys because of a case-insensitive hashing function. However, non-ASCII characters such as "é" and "É" are not treated as identical in dictionary keys, even though they are equal in a direct string comparison.
While a UTF-16 string can be compared to a UTF-8 function in your code, they will provide different hashes when working with dictionaries.

How to Easily Resize Window In Gnome [Quick Tips]
How do you usually resize a window? Move your mouse pointer to the corner of the window and click to resize it, simple, right? Well, if you are using Gnome (Linux), resizing an application window can be a hit or miss affair. In some applications (such as Nautilus), the corners width are huge and you can easily click and drag to resize them. However, in other applications, the sidebar and corner width is only a pixel wide and moving your mouse cursor to that exact point (where the cursor become the resize arrowhead) can be a tedious task.
Here are some ways you can use to make resizing the window an easier, and enjoyable task.
1. Alt + Middle click
At anywhere in the window, press "ALT" key and the middle button of the mouse and the cursor instantly become an arrowhead. You can then move in the direction that you want to resize.
2. Press At + F8
The "Alt + F8" hotkey is a quick keyboard shortcut to activate the resize mode. Once in the resize mode (with a translucent overlay), you can use the arrow key to resize the window horizontally or vertically. Once you are done, hit Enter to return to the window mode.
3. Configure own hotkey via Compiz
If you are using Compiz, it comes with several more options that you can configure.
Open your CompizConfig Settings Manager (System -> Preferences -> CompizConfig Settings Manager).
Scroll down the list to find "Resize Window".
Click on it to enter its configuration page. From here, you can enable and assign the hotkey for different resize mode. In this example, I have enabled the "Initiate Outline Window Resize" mode and assign the hotkey "Alt + Super + W" to activate it.
That's it. This should solve your window resizing woes.

Why does fire fighting pipe crack when grooving?
Grooved pipe connection is often used in the construction and installation of fire fighting pipes. Therefore, it is often necessary to groove fire fighting pipe. If the pipe cracks during grooving, it will be very annoying. Why does fire fighting pipe crack when grooving? The reasons mainly involve pipe material factors and human factors.

I. Material factors

Pipe material is the primary factor. If pipe cracks during grooving, firstly check pipes' quality issue. Common quality issues that cause pipe cracking mainly include:

(1) The problems of welded pipe itself: the shrinkage stress of welded pipe is too high, uneven heated or unreasonable welding method and sequence will lead to weld cracking

(2) Insufficient pipe thickness: pipes' wall thickness is required when grooving, in general ,only the thickness meets the national standard, pipes can be grooved according to construction requirements. However, in order to save costs, some contractors use thin pipes instead of thick ones, which will cause some problems during grooving.

(3)Pipe is not straight: Pipes may collide during handling and long-distance transportation, resulting in pipe bending. When grooving bending pipe , cracks may occur on one side due to non-homogenous force stresses.

(4) Poor quality of pipes: Good raw materials are needed to produce high-quality galvanized pipes. However, in order to save costs, some manufacturers use wasted materials to make pipes, which will lead to relatively poor quality of pipes, low carbon content and easy to crack when making grooves.


Implement the current position
Hi everyone
At first)
I have the X location and Y location data in the outsystems database.
(ex)
id:1 X:1.20,Y:1.00
id:2 X:1.50,Y:1.10
id:3 ...
I want to move the location point in web application.
And I want to display the location point in web application.
I need to set the initial location point on the lower left of the screen. (X:0.00,Y:0.00)
Could you teach me how to implement initial location point in outsystems?
At Second)
I paste the image of floor plan in web application.
I want to paste the current position(use other image) on above the image of floor.
Could you teach me whether I can do it in outsystems?
Solution
Hi Yuki,
I think the easiest way would be to include the floor plan as an image, add a CSS class that uses this image as a background, add a Container that uses that class (so the floorplan gets shown), and subsequently add the markers (image widgets) with the right CSS. See e.g. here for an example of the technology involved.

Why do I feel small crystals or hard lumps inside my new Boveda?
A brand-new Boveda is pliable, jelly-like and "squishy." Sometimes you might also feel some small crystals or lumps inside the pack, which is totally normal. Your Boveda is still safe to use.
Here's why crystals can form inside a new Boveda: The signature formula inside Boveda is a saturated saltwater solution. We add all-natural salts and a food-safe thickener to purified water then seal it all in a leakproof membrane. When we combine the ingredients and fill the membrane, sometimes an excess of those blended salts will mix with the water. As a result, small salt crystals that feel like hard lumps can occasionally form. Additionally, changes in temperature or other conditions can create recrystallization of the salts. This can feel like regular table salt or occasionally like coarse sea salt.
Any crystals in Boveda won't impact the performance, effectiveness or shelf life of the 2-way humidity control. In the rare event that the crystals become sharp and puncture the pouch, please reach out to us. We'll make it right at no cost. We're good like that.

You are invited to join us in coming up with daring and creative solutions, and we want to hear your questions around pressing issues. In these increasingly serious times, we welcome the weird, wacky, and wonderful. Maybe even a sprinkling of magic.
We aim to address big questions like:
 - Why do people eat the way they do?
 - How does digital information influence our physical reality?
 - What role can technology play in creating new eating experiences?
 - How can we rethink what it means to eat together?
 - The conference is fully online and free of charge.
 - Registration deadline is November 26
 - The conference is made possible by the Carlsberg Foundation Young Researcher Fellowship project "Virtual and augmented flavours: Extending human flavour perception via novel sensory inputs"

|The First Televised Orchestra Concert
Philadelphia Orchestra during the First
Televised Orchestra Concert
Photograph by Jules Schick 20 March 1948
At 5:00 p.m. on 20 March 1948, the Philadelphia Orchestra made broadcasting history as the first American orchestra to perform on network television. The hour-long concert, produced by WCAU-TV, the Philadelphia affiliate of the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS), was broadcast live from the Academy of Music at the corner of Broad and Locust Streets. The broadcast followed close on the heels of an agreement between the American Federation of Musicians, led by James Petrillo, and the networks, which ended a three-year ban on live music performances on television. Once the agreement had been reached, the networks jockeyed for the distinction of being the first to televise an orchestra concert. Soon after the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) had announced plans to telecast an hour-long all-Wagner concert by the NBC Symphony Orchestra under Arturo Toscanini at 6:30 p.m. on 20 March 1948, CBS countered by scheduling a concert by the Philadelphia Orchestra for the same evening, ninety minutes earlier.The Philadelphia orchestra performed two works: the overture to Carl Maria von Weber's opera Der Freischutz and the recently rediscovered Symphony no. 1 by Sergei Rachmaninoff, which had received its United States premiere by the orchestra the previous evening.


Boss (video gaming)
In video gaming, a boss is an enemy-based challenge (and a computer-controlled opponent in such a challenge). A fight with a boss character is commonly referred to as a boss battle or boss fight. Boss battles are generally seen at the climax of a particular section of the game, usually at the end of a stage or level, or guarding a specific objective, and the boss enemy is generally far stronger than the opponents the player has faced up to that point.
