This paper documents strong evidence of behavioral biases among Chicago Board of Trade proprietary traders and investigates the effect these biases have on prices. Our traders appear highly loss-averse. Traders who experience morning losses are about 15 percent more likely to assume above-average afternoon risk than traders with morning gains. This behavior has important short-term consequences for afternoon prices, as losing traders actively purchase contracts at higher prices and sell contracts at lower prices than those that prevailed previously. However, during the Þve minutes that follow these trades, prices revert strongly to their earlier levels. Consistent with these Þndings, short-term afternoon price volatility is positively related to the prevalence of morning losses among locals, but overall afternoon price volatility is not.
The publication "Do Behavioral Biases Affect Prices" is placed in the Top 10000 of the best publications in CiteWeb. Also in the category Economics it is included to the Top 1000. Additionally, the publicaiton "Do Behavioral Biases Affect Prices" is placed in the Top 1000 among other scientific works published in 2001.

I’ve spent most of my life dating creative types – musicians, writers, artists, you name it – who are unconventional and self-absorbed, so Peter was a welcomed relief. I was also pleasantly surprised after my string of short guys he was over 5’5, though certainly not the 6’ feet he claimed.
Peter fit a lot of the Asian stereotypes. He was a second generation success story who, like his own parents, was consumed with his children’s education. One, as a result, was a nationally competitive swimmer and the other has just graduated from elite college and was preparing for law school. As a parent who always fears their kid is destine for the Jerry Springer show, I was naturally curious to how one raises such well-behaved, academically gifted children, so this became the focal point of our conversation. Aside from moving to a good school district in New Jersey, however, he never did say.
When not talking about his kids, Peter reverted to short, simple sentences. “Yup.” “Nope.” “How’s your sushi?” I had to go into light, cheery overdrive and fill in the gaps with entertaining stories of my work and clients. For an hour over sushi, easy. But on a second and longer date, I’d be exhausted, so sidestepped his suggestion we meet again.

I love Home Goods, it’s a gigantic store full of my favorite things that are usually relegated to four tiny aisles that you have to fight your way through at T.J. Maxx. Right before our move back to the city I was browsing around the store and I found these adorable pink canisters along with a Nigella Lawson cookbook. While flipping through Nigella Bites I realized just how much I adore her. She’s so incredibly full of life and sparkle and her recipes are homey and comforting. I’ve also been extremely intrigued by many of the Indian dishes that I’ve either read about or watched her cook on television so I finally decided to give one a try.
The first item on the agenda was to find paneer for the Muttar Paneer. Thankfully I live practically right on top of Whole Foods now so my quest for this decidedly non American ingredient was a snap. Back in the kitchen I had a pretty harrowing time frying the paneer. Unless you have a splatter guard I wouldn’t recommend using the amount of vegetable oil called for in the recipe. I’d either use a much smaller amount or “dry fry” it. My difficulties may also have arisen from the fact that this is the first time in several years that I’ve cooked with gas heat. I love how hot it is, but my timing is completely off now. Silly electric ovens. After cooking the paneer the rest of the steps are very simple and I really enjoyed the earthy spicy flavor of the end product. Peas may be the main ingredient in this dish, but don’t be fooled as Muttar Paneer is extremely filling and can definitely be eaten as a stand alone meal. Plus it even holds up well when reheated.
Heat the oil a large skillet and add the paneer cubes, in 2 batches, and fry until they are golden. Remove the golden cubes to a double thickness of kitchen towel. (It is possible to dry fry the paneer cubes in the pan with no oil, to avoid the oil splashing you. Then continue with the recipe below.)Pour all but about 2 tablespoons of the oil out of the pan. Put the onion, garlic cloves, and ginger into a food processor and blitz to a coarse pulp. Fry gently for about 5 minutes with a sprinkling of salt. Stir in the garam masala and turmeric and cook for another 2 minutes before adding the still frozen peas.
ZOMG! I love curried anything + paneer. It’s not hard to make yourself, you know.
We almost always sub tofu in ours though, since Aaron is on a low-fat kick and it’s our main source of protein at our house anyway.

After the founding fathers put together the Constitution, James Madison penned the additional Bill of Rights in 1791. Too bad protecting the environment wasn’t included.
The Industrial Revolution kicked off when Samuel Slater surreptitiously brought British textile technology and innovations to the United States. It was all progress moving forward. No one dreamed the road to modernization would create havoc with our ecosystem.
A healthy environment is a basic human right. Science is not a belief or a myth made up by environmentalists. It is not a philosophy or a religion. It is a method of testing and accumulating knowledge. And the evidence is in on climate science. Overwhelmingly, scientists worldwide agree global warming is happening, and that human activity causes it. And the majority of Americans understand that climate change is real.
Many of today’s key players were not household names before the Trump administration put them in the spotlight. However, while consistently covering the environment, what I saw then was a precursor for what is happening now.
Mike Pompeo, now under consideration for the position of Secretary of State, makes Rex Tillerson look like a treehugger. I have been writing about his connection to the Koch brothers for over five years. While he was a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, his top donor was Koch Industries.
In direct disagreement with eleven senior defense officials in the Trump administration who have “identified climate change risks to the U.S. military mission,” Pompeo continues to be an avowed climate denier.
Last but not least, is Scott Pruitt, the current EPA administrator. I emphasize the word current, because there is a growing call demanding that he relinquish his post.
The egregious behavior of Pruitt, from suing the EPA when he was the governor of Oklahoma – to his latest outrage of ethical malfeasance (accepting condo living digs from the wife of a natural gas lobbyist), has prompted calls from environmental groups for him to step down.
Richard Painter, formerly the chief ethics lawyer for the George W. Bush White House, has laid the blame squarely at the feet of Congress for not doing its job properly.
We like to say we are Mompartisan. It doesn’t matter whether you are a Republican or Democrat. What matters is that science tells us we have a climate crisis. So, for the sake of our children now and in the future, vote like a mom and vote out politicians who support fossil fuel interests at the expense of our children.

The following is a media release issued to SOURCE by the Massachusetts Attorney General’s office.
BOSTON – Attorney General Maura Healey announced today, February 6, that Walgreens has entered into two separate settlement agreements to resolve allegations that it overcharged MassHealth for prescriptions.
Under the first settlement, Walgreens will pay $774,486 to resolve allegations that it submitted claims to MassHealth in which it reported prices for certain prescription drugs at levels that were higher than what Walgreens actually charged, resulting in fraudulent overpayments.
Under the second settlement, Walgreens will pay $1,437,366 to resolve allegations that from January 2006 through December 2017, rather than dispensing the quantity of insulin called for by a patient’s prescription, Walgreens exceeded the prescription amount and falsified information on claims submitted for reimbursement to MassHealth, including the quantity of insulin and/or days’ supply dispensed.
These settlements both arise from qui tam (whistleblower) actions originally filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York under the federal False Claims Act.
Walgreens is a national pharmacy chain with over 260 locations in Massachusetts.
In the AG’s office, these matters were handled by Assistant Attorneys General Robyn Dollar, Stephany Collamore, and Jennifer Goldstein of the AG’s Medicaid Fraud Division.
Stephany Collamore worked with one of the National Association of Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (NAMFCU) Teams which investigated and settled these cases.

Effective 15th October 2018, UAE companies applying for staff visas will no longer be required to deposit a visa bank guarantee of AED3,000. This is part of the government's plans to boost the economy and a significant overhaul of the UAE's visa system.
Until now, employers have deposited a visa bank guarantee at the time of processing a new employee's visa. This is held for the duration of the employee's employment. The employer can then either request it to be refunded or keep it deposited against a future visa.
Replacing the visa bank guarantee will be an annual insurance policy per employee of AED60. The policy will provide cover of up to AED20,000 per employee. The insurance is intended to compensate the worker for gratuity (end of service benefit), flight ticket home, unpaid wages, and notice pay in the event the employer is unable to pay, e.g in the instance that a company is in financial difficulty.
How can UAE companies reclaim their visa bank guarantees?
It is reported that approximately AED14 billion is currently held in UAE visa bank guarantees. Employers will be able to claim refunds for their guarantees currently held. At the moment, it is yet to be announced when employers can start to claim the refunds and how this will be rolled out. However, it is understood that companies which have had a block against them within the last six months will need to be block free for six months before they can claim.

A margarita at The Rio. Courtesy photo.
The margarita gets its own day on Feb. 22. Of course, so not to cause a bar fight over being in the spotlight, tequila gets a day to call its own, too. (Purists, mark July 22m on your calendars as the day to salute reposados and anejos).
Traditionally, margaritas are salt-rimmed tequila cocktails with orange liqueur and lime juice. But, amid the craft cocktail movement, margaritas have evolved into so much more as Boulder’s bartenders are putting their creative spins on the classic cocktails, muddling them with mint much like they would a mojito and giving them sweet-and-spicy upgrades (think: pineapple and habaneros) to really make your taste buds dance.
Ready to celebrate margaritas? Here’s where to go in Boulder to toast some margaritas in honor of National Margarita Day (or any other day ending in ‘y’ for that matter).
For the patio-seekers: Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant, 1101 Walnut St.
On sunny days, your first move is to head straight to the sprawling rooftop at this iconic Mexican restaurant. Boulder’s most storied margaritas are slung here at the Rio Grande Mexican Restaurant. They’re seemingly straightforward: traditional or strawberry, frozen or on the rocks. But, the restaurant’s recipe that was dreamed up in the 1980s is shrouded in secrecy, except for the fact that it uses Jose Cuervo for its tequila base. The restaurant, just off of Pearl Street, also has a strict, three-drink cap on its famed margaritas.
Tequila tip: Sign up online for the Marg Mob online and get a free margarita or queso.
For the tequila aficionados: Tahona Tequila Bistro, 1035 Pearl St.
Now that we’ve got that cleared up, mark this bistro on your tequila treasure map. Tahona serves tequila flights as well as a variety of margaritas ranging from tart coin-style margaritas to smoky, mezcal margs. As for fruity margs, you’ll find some sophisticated ones here, made with guava or prickly pear.
Tequila tip: Try one of the “daily infusion” margaritas, which could include anything from watermelon and mint to cucumber and jalapeno.

For those on a smoky kick: T/ACO, 1175 Walnut St.
Tequila and mezcal (a smoky cousin to tequila) team up for delicious margaritas at T/ACO. You can even get a “Smokey Watermelon” marg with tequila, Patron Contronage, lime juice, watermelon and mezcal. The restaurant also gives a “cosmo,” typically a vodka cocktail, the tequila treatment.
Tequila tip: Happy hour plays out daily from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., with $4 house margaritas and $2 street tacos. You can score the $2 taco deal all day Tuesday, as well.
Drinks at Centro. Courtesy photo.
For the craft cocktail lovers: Centro Mexican Kitchen, 950 Pearl St.
Centro is celebrating National Margarita Day on Feb. 22 with $4 house margaritas and $4 Suerte Blanco Shots. Plenty of great margaritas star on the drink menu at Centro, year-round, too, including cocktails made with house-infused pepper tequila. The Chupacabra is a refreshing interpretation of a strawberry margarita, made with mezcal, the pepper tequila, citrus juices strawberry purée and agave. Or, for a classic Mexican cocktail, the paloma made with tequila and grapefruit juice.
Tequila tip: Fend off your hangover the next morning by picking up a $5 breakfast burrito and coffee, served from 7:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Monday through Friday. They serve both chorizo and vegetarian breakfast burritos.
Tequila bottles at McDevitt. Courtesy photo.
You may have seen the McDevitt Taco Supply cart on Pearl Street Mall or at Sanitas Brewing Company. The taco shop has an outpost in the Meadows on the Parkway Shopping Center now, too. The house margarita (AKA the McDevitt Margarita) is made with fresh-squeezed orange and lime juices. Beer, cocktails, sangria and wine is also on the drink menu.

In the first two parts of this series, I discussed how Linux is being used in technical high schools in Abruzzo and Sicily. Here in Part 3, I present a story that in several aspects is different from the previous stories. Enter Anna F. Leopardi, an elementary school teacher at the Direzione Didattica Statale Terzo Circolo of Pescara, which is the administrative center of the smallest province of the Abruzzi region. Anna is not only a free software user and evangelist; she doesn't mind getting her hands dirty doing some Linux customization hacking, which she then uses at her school. In early 2005, she also taught at a professional training course on open source and schools that was organized by the Province of Pescara.
Anna created and regularly updates an ISO image with a collection of popular, localized free software for Windows. Even more interesting is her DidaTux 2.0 project. DidaTux is a live CD distribution, localized in Italian, that Anna created from Mandriva. DidaTux is aimed directly at elementary schools and elementary school students. DidaTux ISO images can be downloaded directly from the "School" section of the Italian portal Pluto.
I find Anna's work to be noteworthy in at least a couple of ways. The short-term reason to mention the existence of the DidaTux CDs is simply that they might help to teach Italian in foreign schools and/or private courses.
Above all, Anna's work is an exception to the assumption, recently discussed in the "Women in Open Source" session at OSCON 2005, that "women in open source... do not tend to excel in the more technical aspects of software development". Projects such as DidaTux might not be as complex as kernel hacking, but they still require above-average technical skills. And, in truth, it's possible that more people need these types of projects than they do some preemptive this or that.
In addition to the projects just mentioned, Anna's personal Web site contains several step-by-step tutorials on how to perform fun tasks with the free software included in DidaTux. The covered topics range from drawing with KolourPaint to using DigiKam and building a yearly calendar with TuxPaint. Her site also provides detailed instructions on how to create and print labels and holiday postcards with OpenOffice.org.
Although all the tutorials are in Italian, Anna promote activities with many programs that also--or only--have an English interface. Programs and activities, in other words, that you might not by using now in your own school but could be using tomorrow, without any preparation or porting.
At the same time, one thing is missing from Anna's site. It's not her fault, but it does offer an opportunity for all of you to help in making her Web site even more useful to her colleagues. In recent years, English has been added to the official curriculum of Italian primary schools. Therefore, it would be great if Italian teachers easily could find and reuse programs developed for the same age-range students by native-speaker colleagues. A resource page of this kind would fit perfectly on Anna's Web site. So, if you know of any free software for Linux and Windows that children ages 6 to 10 could use to learn English, please e-mail Anna at anna1704@libero.it). Also write to her if you want to share or make available for translation free software documentation and tutorials for children in this age range.
Anna is responsible for her school's entire computer network. The Terzo Circolo has two IT labs, each containing ten computers. Unlike some other schools, these are relatively new machines, namely Duron 1300-based systems. All of the PCs are set up in a dual-boot configuration with Windows XP. The first GNU/Linux distribution ever installed in the school was Mandrake 9.1. Today, some of those computers run DidaTux. With the exception of StarOffice 7, no proprietary application software ever has been installed on any Windows partition; only The GIMP, Mozilla, TuxPaint and similar application are used. You can see the labs on-line in the school's "Galleria immagini".
What Do Students and Other Teachers Think?
Thanks to Anna, almost all of the children who have discovered free software enjoy both DidaTux and the free applications for Windows. Many of the students even wanted to try them at home. Specifically, almost all of them asked for and promptly received their own copies of the software they had tried at school. So far, about 100 DidaTux and FOSS-for-Windows CD-ROMs have been sent home with students. According to Anna, the main problem so far is many children still experience hardware incompatibilities when they try to start the live CD at home. Whenever this happens, the lack of hardware experience and/or deep interest quickly transforms those CDs into Tux-based coasters.
As for the other teachers at Anna's school, so far not much impact from Anna's work can be seen. Anna continues to be the only teacher at Terzo Circolo who uses GNU/Linux on a regular basis, and installing free software on school computers happened by her own initiative. Some of her colleagues have tried using Linux, but they still don't start it regularly because they find it too difficult to use.
On the money front, Anna confirms what I reported about another Italian school, the Technical Commercial Institute De Sterlich: when an institution switches from Windows to GNU/Linux, it is quite difficult--at least in the short term--to figure out exactly how much money is being saved, if any. Anna notes, however, that after the switch, the school immediately was able to invest in needed hardware, including new printers, digital cameras and Ethernet switches.
Initially, Anna tried free software both personally and at work simply due to personal curiosity. Today, she uses it for all the right reasons and is convinced that spreading free software as much as possible among young people is a good thing. As she herself says in her "Linux in classe" (Linux in the Classroom) essay, "above all... Linux is a choice inspired by a need of challenge, of revolution, or maybe the memory of an autistic child who didn't want to work like the other children and, every time I entered the classroom, would ask me 'will you make me use the computer today?'".
On a more practical level, Anna already has denounced the fact that "many Italian schools have indeed set up a lab to teach IT fundamentals to children, but almost all such projects explicitly mention and use proprietary software only....[as] if nothing else existed...without worrying at all whether it is correct or not to advertise, more or less consciously, these expensive products".
Anna's goal therefore is to answer clearly why Italian teachers "should 'waste' time and effort to learn the ropes of an operating system so different from the one commonly used in Italian schools". First of all, she notes, this is software that can be installed, modified and shared freely, without choosing between the risk of heavy fines and the use of expensive licenses that software companies use to lock in millions of end users. Could anybody have explained it better than this?
Another one of her Web pages, titled "Why Linux in elementary school?", states, "I want to demonstrate that it is indeed possible to teach children how to properly use a computer...without proprietary software. As a consequence, the goals and specifications for school IT projects should not mention such products.
The other reasons why Anna recommends free software are the vast amount of applications that you find in any GNU/Linux distribution, how cool they look and how much they can be customized. As she says, they can be customized "even on the fly, that is changing them all the time to match your mood or the particular work you need to do in that particular moment".
By now, you probably have recognized how all of the concerns that Anna expresses are immediately and equally valid for every teacher of the world, wherever he or she lives. As obvious as these points may be, this is exactly why I decided to write this article series--to facilitate contacts and cooperation across borders, because the problem is so common. Please do the same. Finally, as a GNU/Linux user and as a parent of Italian children, I'd like to thank Anna for her work. I hope that she can receive as much support as possible from the community.

The installation will be paired with a wind farm in South Australia. At 129 MWh, it will become the world’s largest lithium ion battery project, and is being developed in conjunction with French renewable energy firm Neoen.
“Australia Rocks!” exclaimed Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Twitter as the entrepreneur revealed details of his firm’s latest groundbreaking project – the installation of a 129 MWh lithium-ion battery in Southern Australia.
The project will see Tesla team with French renewable energy firm Neoen – which developed and owns Europe’s largest solar farm, Cestas – to install the facility, which is being supported by the South Australia government’s $550 million energy plan.
Musk’s legion of Twitter followers quickly dug out a tweet sent in March stating that Tesla will pledge to have the system installed and working 100 days from the date of the contract signature, otherwise the energy will be delivered for free. Musk confirmed that he will be standing by this pledge. In California, Tesla completed the installation and commissioning of an 80 MWh battery farm in just 88 days. This project, however, is far larger.
The battery will be installed near Jamestown in the mid-north of South Australia, and will be paired with the Hornsdale windfarm to help stabilize the volume of intermittent renewable power being fed into the grid.
Despite Musk’s evident confidence on social media, the tycoon was nevertheless slightly cautious when pressed by reporters in Adelaide about the technical challenges facing Tesla and Neoen.
Musk added that he believes the battery will offer a “fundamental efficiency improvement for the grid”, and that its ability to help flatten demand peaks will serve to bring down electricity bills for consumers.
The media circus that generally follows any Tesla announcement will, in this instance, be welcomed by locals, many believe. The eyes of the world may have missed the repeated blackouts that have struck the state since September last year – blackouts that prompted some in federal government to blame the use of renewables.
However, the Australian Energy Market Operator has confirmed that a cocktail of factors have contributed to South Australia’s outages, with higher-than-anticipated demand a leading cause for the blackouts.

Thank you for everything you’ve done, personally and professionally, for so many of us.
Lots of opportunities to learn new things. Casual atmosphere.
Talk to employees when theres an issue, and come up with a resolution instead of waiting til "10" incidents to mention it to them and then write them up. Give employees the hours they were promised. Not showing blatant favouritism towards other employees. Work out a way for employees to get benefits.
Good environment, not crazy busy, easy.
You get barely any hours, crappy pay, rude costumers tend to come in a lot more than usual.

Listen to your employees and give the people who deserve promotions the opportunity to move up in the company. Also don’t hire drug attics.

A string field holds alphanumeric characters up to the given limit. The maximum size is 32765 characters (255 for table level 3 and below). A string field holds one byte for each character plus one or two bytes for the length of the string plus an additional byte, if the string is nullable.
Up to 16382 Unicode characters (255 for table level 3 and below). The actual field size in bytes is twice the number of characters plus two for the string length plus one, if the string is nullable.
Numbers from 0 to 255. Byte fields can have an optional null indicator. The size is one or two bytes depending on the null indicator.
Numbers from -32767 to +32768. SmallInt fields can have an optional null indicator. The size is two or three bytes.
Numbers from -2147483648 to +2147483647. Integer fields can have an optional null indicator. It takes four or five bytes in the database table.
Numbers from –2^63 to +2^63 – 1 with an optional null indicator. One Int64 field uses eight or nine bytes in the table.
Holds a 8 byte floating number, i.e. from 5.0e-324 to 1.7 x 10e308. Can have an optional null indicator. The size is eight or nine bytes.
Values from 12:00:00.000 am to 11:59:59.999 pm. Precision is either minutes, seconds or milliseconds and must be given when creating a level 4 table and above. In level 3 tables and below, precision is always minutes. Can have an optional null indicator. Depending on precision and null indicator, size is between two and five bytes.
Values from 1/1/0000 to 12/31/9999. Size is four bytes. Internally dates are represented as a packed bit field.
Values from 1/1/0000 12:00:00.000 am to 12/31/9999 11:59:59.999 pm. Values take eight bytes internally.
Holds a Boolean value: True or False. Can have an optional null indicator. Size is one or two bytes.
Holds one of a definable set of named values, e.g. mon, tue, wed, thu, fri, sat, sun. The values have to be valid identifiers similar to column names. They can be converted to textual representation using the function Str. Example for a enumeration field gender with values male, female, unknown: When the value female has been assigned Str(gender) returns the string 'female' while gender by itself returns the number 2.
An enumeration value may have up to 20 characters, the maximum number of enumeration values is 15 and the total length of all enumeration values including separators must not exceed 255 characters.
Long strings of variable length up to 1 GB. Memos are stored in additional storage objects called the memo file (extension mmo).
Unicode string of variable length up to 1 GB. Wide memos are stored in the blob storage object (extension blb).
Images and other binary data of variable length up to 1 GB. Blobs are stored in an additional storage object (extension blb).
Pointer to another record in the same or another table (1:n relation). The target table is fixed for all link values of this column. Links are explained in "Automatic Linking". A link field contains the record id of the record the field is linked to. Its size is four bytes.
Pointer list to other records in the same or another table (m:n relation). The target table is fixed for all link values of this column. Relations are explained in "Automatic Linking". Relations fields are not physical columns in the database table itself. There is an additional database table created transparently for each relation field that holds one link per row. The relation table has two link columns, one of which points to the database table that has the relation field and the other one points to the database table the relation field links to. Such the relation field itself has a size of zero bytes.
Counter that gives a unique number to each record. AutoInc fields are assigned its values by the database engine and can not be edited. The Automatic Data Link mechanism uses AutoInc fields as the primary index to store record references. An AutoInc column has an optional indication property, which can be set to a list of column names. This property is used for Automatic Linking and can be left empty to make the AutoInc column behave just like a "normal" one.
128 bit number used by MS COM and ActiveX technologies. GUID stands for Globally Unique Identifier. GUIDs are usually calculated by a OS function which assures that no other call anywhere on earth will produce the same value.

Excel function represents a built-in program that performs a specific operation on a set of given values. Examples of Excel functions are SUM, SUMPRODUCT, VLOOKUP, AVERAGE etc.
Excel formulas are the expressions that use Excel functions to do calculations based on the given parameters.
For new students of Excel, it is important to understand these concepts. If you want to master Excel, you’ll have to acquire good command on Excel functions and formulas. In this article, we will learn more about how functions and formulas are used in Microsoft Excel.
Let’s take an very simple example to understand these concepts. Let’s say you have two cells that contain numerical values. And you want to display sum of these values in a third cell. As you may know, you don’t need to manually add these values, all you require is an Excel formula.
So, what did we learn from this simple formula example?
Most Excel formulas can accept cell address as parameters. If you provide cell reference as parameter, the function will automatically pick the value given in that cell.
Maths and trigonometry: These functions perform mathematical and trigonometrical calculations. For example: SUM, FLOOR, LOG, ROUND, SQRT, ASIN, ATAN etc.
Statistical functions: perform tasks related with statistics calculations: For example: AVERAGE, COUNT, TRED, VARA etc.
Logical functions: give results based on logical constructs like IF, AND, OR, NOT etc.
Text functions: perform tasks related with string manipulation. For example, CONCAT, CHAR, LOWER, UPPER, TRIM etc.
Date and time functions: perform calculations of date and time values. For example, DATEDIFF, NOW, TODAY, YEAR etc.
For the complete list of formula categories you can see Microsoft Office website.
Excel allows you to use functions in nested fashion. Nested Excel functions allow you to pass one function’s result as parameter to another function. Consequently, Excel simplifies formula usage. Initially you may feel that nesting of functions makes formula complicated —but soon you will realize that nesting actually makes your life easier!
The above formula looks complicated but it is not so. This formula can be easily read from left to right. It says that IF AVERAGE of cell range(F2:F5) turns out to be greater than 50 then calculate the SUM of cell range (G2:G5) otherwise return zero.
Here the output of AVERAGE function is becoming an input for IF function. So, we say that AVERAGE function is nested inside IF function.
Literal parameters: When you provide numbers or text string as parameter. For example the formula =SUM(10,20) will give you 30 as result.
This was a basic tutorial about Excel formulas and functions. We hope the learners will find it easy to understand. If you have any questions regarding this, please feel free to ask us in the comments section. Thank you for using TechWelkin!
Its very useful. Please post more formulas.

Trained as an engineer, American artist Alexander Calder was born into a long line of sculptors being the fourth generation to take up the art form. He began constructing at a very young age his first known art tool was a pair of pliers. At eight, Calder was creating jewellery for his sister's dolls from beads and copper wire. Over the next few years, as his family moved to Pasadena, Philadelphia, New York, and San Francisco, he crafted small animal figures and game boards from scavenged wood and brass. Calder's interest initially led not to art, but to mechanical engineering and applied kinetics, which he studied at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey (1915-1919).
He studied painting at the Arts Students League (1923-1926) and then moved to Paris in 1926, he began working abstractly in wire, wood and sheet metal, and his first exhibition of mobiles (a term coined for his work by Marcel Duchamp) was held there in 1932. His works are characterised by their dynamism and often has become world renowned for his enchanting biomorphic mobiles, and also for his free-standing, non-moving stables.
With his early Calder's Circus, Calder injected wit into serious art and introduced the concept of the artist as a performer as much as a maker of art, inspiring such artists as Claes Oldenburg and his whimsical Ray Gun Theater (1962) performances which involved artists Carolee Schneemann, Lucas Samaras, Oyvind Fahlstrom, Tom Wesselman. The influence of the sweeping linear gestures in Calder's mobiles can be seen in the work of Abstract Expressionists Franz Kline, Willem de Kooning and the later Jackson Pollock works.

It’s been a little while since I’ve done one of these posts, hasn’t it? Well, let’s get to it!
To start off, The Color of Darkness has nearly received 100,000 reads on Wattpad.
In about a week or so, the publicity department at Page (my publisher) will be sending out a media statement to stores and online retailers announcing the release of the novel. I’ve sold precisely nine paperback copies so far, so I’m hoping to see that number rise soon! After the press release is sent out, I’m working with a web developer (my father-in-law, actually) to set up a giveaway of signed novels and other cool stuff. I think I will make the price of entering just one review (you don’t even have to write anything if you don’t want to) on Amazon or one of the other platforms on which the book is being sold. More details soon!
After the press release, nothing happens to the novel until the middle of November; on the 16th, TCOD will be removed from Wattpad (well, all but maybe three chapters or so). I repeat: After November 16th, TCOD will no longer be available online for free. I feel that six whole months of free exposure will be more than enough to get the word out there! If you haven’t read it yet, be sure to do it before then!
So, with all of that aside, what am I working on right now? My next novel, of course! For those of you who might not have been aware, I’m writing the first draft of a new novel right now, currently called From: Colorblind To: Happiness. It’s another coming of age novel but this time it addresses adolescents who deal with depression and a wide range of other mental illnesses. At the current rate, I should be able to finish the first draft by the end of the year (you never know, though). Unlike TCOD, however, I will be posting the first draft online only; all further revisions and the final novel will be released in book form.
As a final bit of final news, The Knight Owl (this blog, obviously) will be on a little break while I work on moving everything over to an official website. Sorry for the potential delay on any posting, but the new platform will look and function much, well, classier than this mess.

After the end of a long winter and cool spring, I grow anxious for fresh fruits and vegetables. Perhaps it's all the months of opening canned vegetables or using frozen fruits, but I reach a point every year where I cave and buy the overpriced fresh fruit in the grocery store. The "fresh" fruit hasn't found its way into a can or the freezer yet, but it lacks the flavor and texture of its seasonal counterparts. In some ways, it's like I'm setting myself up for disappointment—a very expensive disappointment.
If only fruits and vegetables could be in season every month of the year.
Well, I've grown anxious. The temperatures outside are occasionally running into the nineties and I'm left sitting next to the air conditioner wishing for a red watermelon. After buying a cheap, but ultimately terrible carton of berries at the market, I've given in. I bought frozen blueberries, citrus fruit, and green beans in a can. It may not be fresh, but it certainly doesn't lack in flavor.
Right now, that's just what I need.
Fruit desserts are quintessential to summer evenings. After a hot, humid day, they make for a cool, light pick-me-up to satisfy my sweet tooth without the richness or heaviness a chocolate cake can bring. When I made this crumble, I enjoyed it hot from the oven on a cool rainy morning and chilled after the hot sun invited itself into my living room.
Until I can raid the farmer's markets, frozen fruit will just have to work for me.
Blueberry Lemon Crumble is a simple dessert combining sweet blueberries with tart lemon. The blueberries are sprinkled with an oatmeal crumble topping before roasting in the oven until fragrant and bubbly. If you listen closely, you can hear the blueberries sing. This makes for a lovely accompaniment to a cool summer meal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, rolled oats, and brown sugar. Add the cold, cubed butter and, using your fingers, mix the butter into the flour until the whole mixture resembles coarse sand and holds together when squeezed. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine the lemon zest, lemon juice, sugar, and blueberries.
Divide blueberries equally between four ramekins (or place all in a small, cast iron skillet). Crumble on the oatmeal topping. Place ramekins on a baking sheet in case the crumbles overflow and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until topping is browned and the crumbles are bubbly and fragrant. Allow to cool for ten minutes before serving (the fruit will be very hot). The crumbles may also be enjoyed at room temperature or chilled in the refrigerator.

I get bored pretty easily. I usually don’t feel challenged by jobs and I end up waiting for my 8 hours to be up so I can go home to hubby.
In the last little while since I started working on my blog, writing more, and researching blogging, SEO and making an online income, I finally feel excited every day to wake up and work.
I love connecting with other people around the world, reading their articles, visiting their blogs and filling my brain with all of this new, amazing information.
There isn’t an exact timeline to my process of beginning my blog and pursuing an online career but I do have some marked websites and subscriptions that I follow that still help me every day to get excited about this journey.
These people have done it and done it right.
Check out what these successful people are up to and how they can help you change your life.
Somewhere in the midst of me Google searching how to invest money, I ran into this man’s website – I would hype him up more but his ego is already pretty huge.
He has free and paid courses on how to find your dream job, how to create an online business, and how to earn more money.
The emails he sends through his subscriptions are usually funny, informative and keep you thinking.
Try the Free Tools page to start and see if you like his stuff. It’s how I first started getting excited about doing something different with my life!
Ramit pushed me in the direction of wanting to start an online business of sorts. As I was researching different ways to do this, I found Wealthy Affiliate.
All of the reviews I read on it showed me that it wasn’t a scam and it was a great community of people all working towards the same common goal: online income.
There is a free “Online Entrepreneur Course” to get you started on your blog and help you learn the ins and outs of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and the finer details of setting yourself up online.
You can, of course, sign up for a premium account which gets you access to more videos and communication with the founders.
From here, I started getting into the fun stuff! If you are looking to start an easy to function blog, WordPress is the way to go.
community of users and easy ways to connect with each other. (When you are looking to build your audience, this is really helpful).
I started writing every day to the point now where sometimes I get up on weekend days at 7:30 just because I have something in my brain that I want to write about.
This blog has just really been a great example for me in learning what a successful blog in my niche is and does.
Her emails are informative and I have learned a lot about my body, digestion, and nutrition. She has a really different take on all of these things!
If you are looking for an example of what a great “mommy” blog looks like, I would visit her site!
This is the book that I’m currently reading and WOW, it just gets you all amped up to get things done!
Learn how to prioritize tasks, people and daily activities and make more time for you and your family.
Also a NY Times Best Seller – and not coincidentally, Ramit and Tim are pretty good friends.
I actually just stumbled upon this website today. I’m learning how to increase my Twitter followers, and learning a little bit more about affiliate linking and sponsorships.
I like her website because it’s written by a successful mommy blogger, which I have dreams to be one day!
It’s a pretty basic site and she could probably use a little more content but what’s there is definitely worth the read.
If you are looking for some seriously awesome (and free) articles on how to increase blog traffic and write better blog posts, anything by Jon Morrow will get the gears turning.
I was first introduced to Jon by this blog post called “How to Quit Your Job, Move to Paradise and Get Paid to Change the World”. It’s good. Really good. How come you aren’t reading it already??
He has tons of courses (a lot of them paid) but the information you will glean from this guy and everyone he works with, priceless. Or just go for the endless pit of free stuff.
I hope these books, websites and blogs will help you on your blogging journey and maybe a life where you can work from home or a coffee shop – or a beach!
These are super inspiring and successful people who know how to do well in this business. Don’t feel overwhelmed by the amount of information out there!
Just open your mind, read, and write, write, write!
Great resource and I can’t wait to check out these links. Sounds like they’ll be very helpful for me as I try to work out how to make an income from doing what I love – thanks!
I’m inspired by people like you and those who share their finding, thoughts, and great ideas! THANK YOU!

BEND, Oregon — November 14, 2016 — Tech Soft 3D, leading provider of software development tools and 3D PDF solutions to the engineering industry, today announced HOOPS Communicator 2016 Service Pack 2. This software development kit release provides major enhancements to rendering of large models, improved visual quality and user interface.
“One industry trend we can always count on is the ever-increasing size and complexity of design files. Projects are more complex, files keep getting bigger, and our partners need to be able to load and interact with these immense files in seconds. Our work here is never complete, but we’ve made huge updates to HOOPS Communicator,” said Guido Hoffmann, HOOPS Communicator Product Manager at Tech Soft 3D.
There are quite a few capability updates in HOOPS Communicator, such as CAD configuration support and ambient occlusion, but the stand-out is yet another major leap forward in handling large and complex CAD data within desktop and mobile browsers. The new resource limiting feature enables rendering of massive models, made of hundreds of thousands of parts, on any device by limiting memory usage. Geometry is moved in and out of memory depending on camera location and zoom level.
About Tech Soft 3D Tech Soft 3D is the leading global provider of development tools that help software teams deliver successful applications, as well as the creator of the PRC format that is part of the PDF standard. Established in 1996 and headquartered in Bend, Oregon, Tech Soft 3D also has offices in California, Ohio, France, England and Japan. The company’s toolkit products power nearly 500 unique applications running on hundreds of millions of computers worldwide, while the Tetra4D brand of end-user products are used by many of the top manufacturing and construction firms for converting CAD data into 3D PDF.

A war widow chooses to spend her day quietly instead of at the parades.
A Solo Mom with a newborn baby girl to raise, she initially embraced Memorial Day as a way for them to connect and remember: “I gathered for Memorial Day on the Hill—concerts, Rolling Thunder, Arlington visits, and weekend barbecues. It was exhausting and left me raw rather than rested.” As a result, this evolved into a more traditional Memorial Day celebration over time: hosting a backyard barbecue with her daughter.
She also points to “how truly ‘universal’ the human experience can be,” not just as a war widow grieving but as a Solo Mom. “Surely, as a single mother, you experienced those moments when your kids yearned for someone to care for you or help them help you.” Clearly, she struggles with balancing the need for a “normal life” with her daughter’s desire and need to grieve. And her daughter undoubtedly feels a need to connect with other children who’ve lost a parent to war in a society that is completely disconnected from her experience.
It’s our duty to hold true to this all year, but Memorial Day is certainly a good place to start.

Описание: Explores the author`s design sense and provides guidance to those who want a home that is beautiful, original and livable. This book shows how she assesses each space`s form and function, selects foundation elements, chooses furniture and lighting and finally, incorporates decorative elements that reflect the resident`s personality.
Описание: This book defines the history of modern interior design through the reuse of existing buildings. This approach allows the history of the interior to be viewed as separate from the history of architecture and instead enables the interior to develop its own historical narrative.
Following a brief introduction, the book is organized in six chapters on the following themes: home, work, retail, display, leisure, and culture. Each chapter comprises a selection of case studies in chronological order. 52 key examples dating from 1900 to the present are explored in terms of context, concept, organization, and detail and are illustrated with photographs, plans, sections, concept drawings, and sketches.
Описание: More Dream Homes presents 100 exceptional interiors of all styles from around the globe. Comprehensively illustrated with 800 photographs by world-renowned interiors photographer Andreas von Einsiedel, this is the ultimate reference for interior design professionals, architects and anyone wanting to create their own dream home.
Описание: Stephen Crafti has always been drawn to black houses, irrespective of the materials they are constructed in, be they zinc, timber or simply painted. Unlike most houses, which scream for attention, black houses sit quietly, accentuating the often-verdant landscape. There is also a sense of calm and tranquillity with a black home. Crafti doesn't live in a black house, but he recently upgraded a 1930's home. 'Everything I touched was changed to black, from the timber fences to the timber floorboards'. He even added black curtains and planted black bearded irises in his garden. Using black seemed to unify disparate elements in and around his home. While there are numerous black features in Crafti's home, his ideal scenario would be to live in a contemporary black house, with black furniture and black walls. And maybe even a garden filled with black plants. This book, showcasing black houses, is the starting point to this goal and will be organised according to the following themes: Black Exteriors; Living in Black; Details of Black; Kitchens & Dining in Black; and In Black And White.

When the �refugee issue� is discussed within the context of the Middle East, people invariably refer to Palestinian refugees, not Jews displaced from Arab countries. Neither the mass violations of human rights nor the displacement of Jews from Arab countries has ever been adequately addressed by the international community.
It would be an injustice to recognize the rights of Palestinian refugees without recognizing equal rights for former Jewish refugees from Arab countries.
On two separate occasions the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) ruled that Jews fleeing from Arab countries were �bona fide� refugees who �fall within the mandate of (the UNHCR) office�. Yet, there was virtually no international response to the plight of close to 900,000 Jews who, since 1948, have been displaced from Arab countries.
As a matter of law and equity, no just, comprehensive Middle East peace can be reached without recognition of, and redress for, the uprooting, under Islamic regimes, of centuries-old Jewish communities in the Middle East and North Africa.
To credibly, and effectively assert the legitimate rights of former Jewish refugees from Arab countries, an international campaign is required that would both examine the mass violations of human rights (e.g. murder; arbitrary arrest and detention; torture; stripping of citizenship; seizure of property; etc.); and catalogue the loss of extensive communal and individual assets. That comprehensive data is not available today.
The Israeli Cabinet, in March 2002 and December 2003, called for efforts �to gather information, data, claims and documents... (and) record details of Jewish private and communal property in Arab countries and the denial of their rights�.
This International Campaign for Rights and Redress, which has the support of the Government of Israel, can only be successful with the united efforts of Jewish communities and organizations worldwide.
On June 6, 2005, Jewish leadership from nine countries agreed to participate in an International Campaign for Rights and Redress to assert the rights of former Jewish refugees from Arab countries. Delegates from the United States, Canada, Britain, France, Belgium, Italy and Israel came to the meeting in Paris; those from Mexico and Australia participated via teleconference. At that meeting, convened by the World Association of Jews from Arab Countries (WOJAC) in association with Justice for Jews from Arab Countries (JJAC), consensus was reached on important elements of the proposed campaign including: the dual goals of public education and collection of testimonies; and the coordination of programs that would target governments, the media, Jewish organizations, synagogues and Jewish day schools in all Diaspora Jewish communities. The campaign will be launched in March 2006.
The International Campaign for Rights and Redress will record and publicize the mass violations of human rights suffered by Jews under Arab regimes (e.g. murder; arbitrary arrest and detention; torture; stripping of citizenship; seizure of property; etc.); and document the loss of extensive communal and individual assets. Once collected, the documentation will be catalogued and preserved by a special unit in Israel�s Ministry of Justice, established to compile the legal and factual basis necessary to assert the rights of Jews displaced from Arab countries.
WOJAC and JJAC will be assisted in this International Campaign for Rights and Redress by a coalition of Jewish organizations in North and South America, Europe, Israel and South East Asia including, among others, the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, American Jewish Committee, American Jewish Congress, American Sephardi Federation, Anti-Defamation League, B�nai Brith International, Board of Deputies of British Jews, Canadian Jewish Congress, Comite Central de la Comunidad Judia de Mexico, Conseil representative des institutions juives de France (CRIF), Executive Council of Australian Jewry, HARIF, Jewish Council for Public Affairs, JIMENA, Unione delle Comunita Ebraiche Italiana and the World Sephardic Congress.
2. To document the mass violations of human rights of Jews who were forced to flee from Arab countries and catalogue the loss of their communal and individual assets.
1. Public proclamations by national governing bodies: (e.g. Israeli Knesset, federal, state and/or municipal governments; central Jewish communal body; Rabbinic authorities; etc.) marking March 2006 as a special month of commemoration and collection of testimonials from former Jewish refugees from Arab countries.
4. Media Contacts: Meetings with editorial writers and journalists; arranging for articles, op-ed pieces, ads to appear in the electronic, broadcast and print media.
A. A Steering Committee, comprised of representatives from nine countries, has already been convened to serve as the central policy and decision-making body for the International Campaign for Rights and Redress.
B. In participating countries, a National Steering Committee will be established, comprising all associations of Jews from Arab countries as well as relevant Jewish communal organizations.
C. Working in concert, on the international and national levels, the ultimate goal will be to collect, in a systematic, secure and confidential process, personal testimonies on the mass violation of human rights and the persecution of Jewish minorities by Arab regimes, as well as to document the loss of individual and community assets.

5. How do I learn more about my drinking water?
EPA strongly encourages people to learn more about their drinking water, and to support local efforts to protect the supply of safe drinking water and upgrade the community water system. Your water bill or telephone book’s government listings are a good starting point for local information.
Contact your water utility. EPA requires all community water systems to prepare and deliver an annual consumer confidence report (CCR) (sometimes called a water quality report) for their customers by July 1 of each year. If your water provider is not a community water system, or if you have a private water supply, request a copy from a nearby community water system.
The CCR summarizes information regarding sources used (i.e., rivers, lakes, reservoirs, or aquifers), detected contaminants, compliance and educational information.
Some water suppliers have posted their annual reports on EPA’s website.

Anyone who’s used Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) will have noticed that however good the staff, there’s a mass of inefficient bureaucracy involved—from patients repeatedly having to give their ages, to the millions of letters sent through the post between hospitals, doctors and patients’ homes.
Could blockchain make healthcare more efficient? That’s the ambition of a UK startup called Pharmeum. Based in Leeds since 2017, the company, with a staff of eight, has the giant ambition of integrating the many different aspects of healthcare—from doctors and hospitals, to drugs and prescriptions via payment methods and insurance—into one easy-to-use app.
Co-founder and CEO Zain Rana describes Pharmeum as “a blockchain and AI solution for the healthcare industry, using private permission blockchain to access affordable healthcare globally”.
Using blockchain will allow Pharmeum to store each patient’s detailed records over years and make them easily available at all times. But if the patient can access all that information through their phone, how secure will the system be?
Zain says he’s been in touch with NHS Digital and they’re “very excited about the potential for interoperability in medical data and prescriptions on a global level”. Pharmeum’s idea is that you can “go to any country, any city and bring your health data with you. You can access medication, access healthcare using your smartphone”. But the NHS was thinking in terms of a rollout over the next four or five years, while Pharmeum would be “ready in a couple of months”. So for the moment, Pharmeum is concentrating on opportunities in the private sector.
By not requiring users to pay using the Pharm Token but utilising it within its own systems, the business can still take advantage of the blockchain, as a database, to set up smart contracts and to interface between different international systems.
Pharmeum has just been shortlisted as a finalist in the IT Innovator of the Year category by the Health Investor Awards 2019.

There is just something so nice about waking up to a bowl of brown sugar oatmeal that is already ready and waiting for you in the fridge. All it takes is a few minutes of effort before you go to bed and you've got a healthy, hearty and delicious breakfast. Simply toss together some rolled oats with your choice of milk (we like almond and soy, but 1% will work too), some good-quality pure vanilla extract, a pinch of cinnamon and some demerara sugar in a jar. Then shake, shake, shake (to get those ingredients friendly), seal it up tight and place it in the fridge to soak overnight. In the morning, all you've got to do is remove jar from fridge, top with anything you fancy (think nuts, seeds, dried fruit or fresh juicy berries) and tuck in (or toss it in your purse to-go).
To make oats: The night before, combine the oats, chia seeds, milk, cinnamon, vanilla and sugar in a jar or container. Give it a good shake to combine all of the ingredients. Place in fridge to let flavours come together overnight.
To assemble: In the morning, remove jar from refrigerator and stir well. Top with almonds, berries and demerara sugar. Eat immediately or toss in your bag to bring to work.

A number of Christians were beaten and arrested by Vietnamese government officials after they refused to renounce their faith and worship a Buddha statue, a pastor has revealed.
Pastor Hoang Van Pa told persecution watchdog group International Christian Concern that government officials threatened 33 Hmong Protestants in Phá Lóm village in November if they refused to renounce their Christian faith.
Police reportedly gathered personal information about the Christians and then carried out an open trial before the community. Presenting an image of the Buddha, police tried to force the Christians to abandon their faith and worship the statue instead.
Four of the Christians were subsequently arrested and beaten, and government officials continued to harass Protestants in several other raids throughout November and December.
Hmong Christians are estimated to make up 300,000 of the one million Hmong people in Vietnam. Over the last 30 years, increasing numbers of Hmong have converted to Christianity from the group’s traditional religion of animism (belief in the spirit world and the interconnectedness of all living things).
These tribal groups “experience the most intense persecution” according to religious freedom watchdog group Open Doors, which ranked Vietnam among the top 50 countries where Christian persecution is most severe.
As Dzung, the representative of the Interdisciplinary Inspection Team, explained that Vietnam has banned the Protestant Christian faith. Those who refuse to renounce their faith are expelled.
ICC notes that last year alone, more than 100 believers were expelled from Yen Bai province and Lao Cai province. They had to find their own way to flee to nearby Thailand, where they have the prospect of applying for refugee status.
“Due to its ethnic background and high percentage of practicing Christians, Vietnam’s Hmong community is often targeted and harassed by both the government and neighboring communities,” wrote ICC’s Regional Manager Gina Goh.
Last year, two dozen Hmong Christians in Vietnam refused to recant their faith, prompting a mob to attack them. According to the Vietnam Committee on Human Rights (VCHR), four of the Christians were hospitalized with injuries to the head and arms.
ICC has warned that the persecution of Hmong Christians is expected to continue in 2019 and urged the international Christian community to lift them up in prayer.
