WYSIWYG Web Builder is not an HTML editor, but an HTML generator! Web Builder imports the HTML by rendering the contents of an existing page and then attempts to convert the layout to Web Builder's internal object format.. The import feature currently only imports text, images, form elements and body attributes (link colors, background images, meta tags). Tables, scripts, stylesheets and multimedia components are not imported. But in most cases this is good enough to get you started.. Web Builder does not parse style sheets, so is some cases the text may look different than the original page.. Web Builder currently doesn't support framesets. If you want to import a web page that's using frames you'll have to import all individual pages separately... Importing web pages created with WYSIWYG Web Builder will give the best results!

Effect of antioxidant properties of lecithin emulsifier on oxidative stability of encapsulated bioactive compounds.
Oxidation of encapsulated bioactive compounds in emulsions is one of the key challenges that limit shelf life of emulsion containing products. Oxidation in these emulsions is triggered by permeation of free radicals generated at the emulsion interface. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of antioxidant properties of common emulsifiers (lecithin and Tween 20) in reducing permeation of free radicals across the emulsion interface. Radical permeation rates were correlated with oxidative stability of a model bioactive compound (curcumin) encapsulated in these emulsions. Rate of permeation of peroxyl radicals from the aqueous phase to the oil phase of emulsion was inversely proportional to the antioxidant properties of emulsifiers. The rate of radical permeation was significantly higher (p<0.05) for emulsions stabilized using Tween 20 and oxidized lecithin compared to native lecithin that showed higher antioxidant activity. Free radical permeation rate correlated with stability of curcumin in emulsions and was significantly higher (p<0.05) in lecithin stabilized emulsions as compared to Tween 20 emulsions. Overall, this study demonstrates that antioxidant activity of emulsifiers significantly influences permeation of free radicals across the emulsion interface and the rate of oxidation of bioactive encapsulant.

Lesson: The Effect of Antioxidants on Emulsions

Introduction:
Emulsions are mixtures of two immiscible liquids, such as oil and water, that are stabilized by emulsifying agents. One of the main challenges in making emulsion-based products is preventing the oxidation of the ingredients. Oxidation can lead to off-flavors, color changes, and loss of nutritional value. In this lesson, we will learn about the role of antioxidants in emulsions and how they can help prevent oxidation.

Core Value:
The core value of this lesson is that antioxidants can help prevent oxidation in emulsions, which is important for maintaining the quality and shelf life of emulsion-based products.

Section 1: What is Oxidation?
Oxidation is a chemical reaction that involves the transfer of electrons from one molecule to another. In food products, oxidation can lead to off-flavors, color changes, and loss of nutritional value.

Section 2: How do Antioxidants Work?
Antioxidants are compounds that can prevent or slow down oxidation. They work by reacting with the free radicals that are formed during oxidation. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage other molecules by stealing their electrons. Antioxidants can neutralize these free radicals, preventing them from causing further damage.

Section 3: The Role of Emulsifiers in Emulsions
Emulsifiers are substances that help mix two immiscible liquids, such as oil and water, to form an emulsion. Common emulsifiers include lecithin and Tween 20. These substances reduce the surface tension between the two liquids, allowing them to mix more easily.

Section 4: The Effect of Antioxidant Properties of Lecithin and Tween 20 on Oxidative Stability
A study was conducted to evaluate the role of antioxidant properties of lecithin and Tween 20 in reducing permeation of free radicals across the emulsion interface. The results showed that the rate of permeation of peroxyl radicals from the aqueous phase to the oil phase of emulsion was inversely proportional to the antioxidant properties of emulsifiers. The rate of radical permeation was significantly higher (p<0.05) for emulsions stabilized using Tween 20 and oxidized lecithin compared to emulsions stabilized using non-oxidized lecithin.

Section 5: Practical Examples
One practical example of using antioxidants in emulsions is in the production of mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is an emulsion of oil and water, stabilized by lecithin. To prevent oxidation and prolong the shelf life of the product, manufacturers can add antioxidants such as vitamin E or tocopherols to the lecithin.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the effect of antioxidant properties of lecithin and Tween 20 on oxidative stability of encapsulated bioactive compounds is an important topic in the field of food science. Understanding this relationship can help manufacturers create higher quality emulsion-based products with longer shelf lives. By adding antioxidants to emulsifiers, manufacturers can prevent or slow down oxidation, which can lead to off-flavors, color changes, and loss of nutritional value.


text: How can gender discrimination explain fertility behaviors and family-friendly policies ?. This paper focuses on the interaction between gender discrimination and household decisions. It develops a general equilibrium model with endogenous fertility, endogenous labor supply and endogenous size of government spending. Family policies are assumed to decrease the time that parents spend on their children. The model shows that gender discrimination may explain differences in household decisions between countries. The solution shows a U-shaped relationship between fertility and gender discrimination. An increase in the discrimination level implies a related decrease in fertility, women's participation in the labor force and in family-friendly.

Lesson: Understanding Gender Discrimination and its Impact on Fertility Behaviors and Family-Friendly Policies

**Introduction**
Gender discrimination refers to the unfair treatment of individuals based on their gender. It is a widespread phenomenon that affects many aspects of people's lives, including their fertility behaviors and family-friendly policies. In this lesson, we will explore how gender discrimination can impact these areas and discuss the implications for society.

**Section 1: Understanding Gender Discrimination**
Gender discrimination can take many forms, including pay disparities, unequal access to education and career opportunities, and social expectations about gender roles. These factors can influence fertility behaviors and family-friendly policies in several ways.

**Section 2: The Impact of Gender Discrimination on Fertility Behaviors**
One way that gender discrimination can impact fertility behaviors is by influencing women's career choices. When women face barriers to advancement in the workplace, they may choose to have fewer children or delay childbearing in order to pursue their careers. Additionally, when men are expected to be the primary breadwinners, they may feel pressure to work longer hours, which can lead to lower fertility rates.

**Section 3: The Impact of Gender Discrimination on Family-Friendly Policies**
Gender discrimination can also impact family-friendly policies by limiting the availability of flexible work arrangements and other supports that enable parents to balance work and family responsibilities. When these policies are not available, parents may choose to work longer hours or forgo career advancement opportunities in order to meet their family needs. This can result in lower overall levels of female labor force participation and reduced economic opportunities for families.

**Section 4: Conclusion**
In conclusion, gender discrimination has significant implications for fertility behaviors and family-friendly policies. By understanding these impacts, policymakers can develop more effective strategies to support families and promote gender equality. By promoting equal opportunities for men and women, we can create a more equitable society that values both work and family life.

**Glossary**
- Gender discrimination: Unfair treatment of individuals based on their gender.
- Fertility behaviors: Decisions related to childbearing and family planning.
- Family-friendly policies: Programs and practices that support work-life balance and enable parents to meet their family responsibilities while maintaining their careers.

**Self-Debate**
Do you think that gender discrimination is still a significant issue in today's society? Why or why not? Use evidence to support your position.

The present invention relates to chimney fire detectors, and in particular, to detectors employing a pair of entwined conductors to detect the presence of a chimney fire.
It is known to use a twisted pair of insulated wires as the sensor for detecting a fire. Such known fire detectors rely upon the insulation between the pair either melting or disintegrating to thus allow the wires to make electrical contact. Such electrical closure operates an alarm or similar device to alert occupants of a building of the danger of fire. Such a twisted pair of wires have been used to detect fires within a building but not to detect chimney fires.
Chimney fires result from the progressive deposition of creosote on the inside surface of a chimney during its use. This creosote is typically emitted from a wood burning fire. If the user does not regularly remove these deposits, there is a significant danger that a relatively hot fire will cause combustion gases within the chimney to rise to a temperature sufficient to ignite the creosote deposit. The resulting chimney fire is dangerous since it issues dangerous sparks and flames from the outlet of the chimney. In addition the chimney temperature will exceed its design limits, thereby posing a danger of combustion to surrounding wooden frame members. The chimney fire, being difficult to extinguish, may require the assistance of emergency personnel and involve possible water damage to the chimney and its heating system.
It is known to install a temperature sensing unit within a chimney to detect a chimney fire. An example of such a detector is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 1,973,272. However, these detectors do not employ a twisted pair of wires and instead rely on more elaborate, and expensive equipment. Examples of fire detectors employing twisted pairs of wire to detect fires other than a chimney fire are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,185,944; 2,518,789; 3,046,536; 3,257,530; and 3,774,184.

Lesson Title: How to Detect Chimney Fires with Entwined Conductors

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about chimney fires and how entwined conductors can be used to detect them. We will cover the following topics:

1. What are chimney fires?
2. How do entwined conductors work in detecting chimney fires?
3. Practical examples of using entwined conductors to detect chimney fires
4. Glossary of key terms
5. Conclusion

Section 1: What are chimney fires?
Chimney fires are caused by the buildup of creosote on the inside surface of a chimney during its use. Creosote is a highly flammable substance that is produced when wood burns. If the creosote is not removed regularly, it can ignite and cause a fire within the chimney. This type of fire is called a chimney fire.

Section 2: How do entwined conductors work in detecting chimney fires?
Entwined conductors are two insulated wires that are twisted together. When heat is applied to the conductors, the insulation melts or disintegrates, allowing the wires to make electrical contact. This electrical closure operates an alarm or similar device to alert occupants of a building of the danger of fire. In the case of chimney fires, the conductors are placed near the chimney to detect the heat generated by the fire.

Section 3: Practical examples of using entwined conductors to detect chimney fires
1. Install the entwined conductors near the chimney, preferably at the point where the smoke leaves the chimney.
2. Connect the conductors to a control panel that will operate an alarm or similar device when the conductors make electrical contact.
3. Regularly check the control panel to ensure that it is functioning properly.
4. If a chimney fire is detected, immediately evacuate the building and call the fire department.

Section 4: Glossary of key terms
- Creosote: A highly flammable substance produced when wood burns
- Entwined conductors: Two insulated wires that are twisted together
- Heat: Energy that is transferred from one body to another due to a difference in temperature
- Insulation: A material that resists heat flow
- Melting: The process of changing from a solid to a liquid state

Section 5: Conclusion
In conclusion, entwined conductors can be used to detect chimney fires by detecting the heat generated by the fire. By installing the conductors near the chimney and connecting them to a control panel that operates an alarm or similar device, occupants of a building can be alerted to the danger of fire. Regularly checking the control panel and evacuating the building if a chimney fire is detected can help prevent loss of life and property damage.

Phagocytosis of the Legionnaires' disease bacterium (Legionella pneumophila) occurs by a novel mechanism: engulfment within a pseudopod coil.
Phagocytosis of Legionella pneumophila, a bacterial pathogen that multiplies intracellularly in human mononuclear phagocytes and causes Legionnaires' disease, occurs by a novel mechanism. A phagocyte pseudopod coils around the bacterium as the organism is internalized. Human monocytes, alveolar macrophages, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes all phagocytize L. pneumophila by this unusual process, termed "coiling phagocytosis," and these leukocytes phagocytize not only live L. pneumophila in this way, but also formalin-killed, glutaraldehyde-killed, and heat-killed L. pneumophila. In contrast, under the same experimental conditions, monocytes phagocytize Streptococcus pneumoniae, encapsulated and unencapsulated E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas alcaligenes, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Neisseria meningitidis by conventional phagocytosis. Treatment of L. pneumophila with high-titer anti-L. pneumophila antibody abolishes coiling phagocytosis; such bacteria are internalized by conventional phagocytosis. These experiments raise the possibility that a surface component of L. pneumophila mediates the unusual response by the phagocyte. Such a component, if elaborated in vivo, might be responsible for extrapulmonary manifestations of Legionnaires' disease suspected of being toxin-mediated.

textbook:
Lesson: Phagocytosis

Introduction:
Phagocytosis is a process used by the immune system to destroy and remove foreign particles, pathogens, and cellular debris from the body. In this lesson, we will learn about the phagocytosis of Legionella pneumophila, the bacterium responsible for Legionnaires' disease.

Section 1: The Mechanism of Phagocytosis
Phagocytosis of Legionella pneumophila occurs by a novel mechanism called "coiling phagocytosis." This process involves a phagocyte pseudopod coiling around the bacterium as it is internalized. This is different from the conventional phagocytosis method, which involves the engulfment of the particle by the entire cell membrane.

Section 2: Types of Phagocytes
There are several types of phagocytes that can phagocytize Legionella pneumophila. These include human monocytes, alveolar macrophages, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes. These leukocytes can phagocytize not only live L. pneumophila but also formalin-killed, glutaraldehyde-killed, and heat-killed L. pneumophila.

Section 3: Experimental Conditions
In contrast, monocytes phagocytize other bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, encapsulated and unencapsulated E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas alcaligenes, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Neisseria meningitidis by conventional phagocytosis.

Section 4: Treatment with Antibodies
Treatment of L. pneumophila with high-titer anti-L. pneumophila antibody abolishes coiling phagocytosis. Such bacteria are internalized by conventional phagocytosis.

Conclusion:
In summary, phagocytosis of Legionella pneumophila occurs by a novel mechanism called "coiling phagocytosis," which involves a phagocyte pseudopod coiling around the bacterium as it is internalized. This process is different from conventional phagocytosis and is used by several types of phagocytes. Treatment with antibodies can also affect the phagocytosis process. Understanding this process can help us develop better treatments for Legionnaires' disease.

Glossary:
- Phagocytosis: The process by which specialized cells called phagocytes engulf and destroy foreign particles, pathogens, or cellular debris.
- Pseudopod: A temporary, finger-like extension of the cytoplasm of an amoeba or other cell that helps in movement and capturing food.
- Coiling phagocytosis: A novel mechanism of phagocytosis involving a phagocyte pseudopod coiling around the bacterium as it is internalized.
- Conventional phagocytosis: The engulfment of a particle by the entire cell membrane of a phagocyte.

Completed: Double Gauze Emmeline Tee

Given the name of this blog, and the reason behind that (it's my favourite colour), I don't sew nearly as many green garments as you might suppose. My recent make is a step in redressing this.

Green on green

You may recall way back here, when I went through a brief infatuation with Cotton + Steel Bespoke double gauze, and then it sold out, but by then I'd moved onto something else. But I had my lovely double gauze quilt to stroke and I couldn't get a blouse version out of my head. I received some Village Haberdashery gift vouchers at Christmas, so instead of the C+S, I ordered Framework double gauze, by Ellen Baker for Kokka, in teal broken plaid (now sold out in TVH), which is a bit of a mouthful, but which is beautiful. It has the same strokeable softness of the Nani Iro and the C+S, and the colour is gorgeously saturated, although seems to be difficult to capture on camera. IRL it's greener than it appears in these photos.

It was destined to be a Scout, and I'm unsure why it kept getting bumped down the queue, but I'm glad it did, because I was recently fortunate enough to win the Emmeline Tee, the first pattern from The Little Tailoress, which this fabric was perfect for. When it was first released I'd thought it too similar to the Scout to buy, but when Ami posted the giveaway and I took a further look at the pattern, I realised it's not that similar after all. Yes, they are both a relaxed fit and dartless, but where the Scout has set in sleeves, the Emmeline has options for raglan sleeves, grown on (or kimono style) sleeves with or without cuffs, and it is specifically designed for both wovens and knits, with separate instructions for each. Talk about thorough!!!

I made the size Small, and I did a quick muslin first just to check fit. It's not quite as loose fitting as the Scout, but it's still quite relaxed and the Small fit well. I did intend to add about 3cm to the length, just as a personal preference (it's what I add to my Scouts) but I forgot. And actually the length is absolutely fine as is. As there are no sleeves to set in, it's a really quick sew. I opted to make the cuffed sleeve version, and to make the process a little more fiddly by using French seams, which was tricky with only a 1cm seam allowance and a fabric that frayed like nothing else. Other than that though, it was a quick, easy and pleasant sew. There's not really a lot to say because it went so well.

Bias binding. Perfect from the outside...

The neckline is bound with self bias tape, which gives a really pleasing effect, with the "broken plaid" on the diagonal. Due to the shifty nature and open weave of the fabric, the bias tape was difficult to manage, so it's a bit messy on the inside. For some reason the pressed edge didn't want to stay pressed and so I have some raw edges that unfurled themselves as I sewed. I did unpick and redo a couple of sections, but I still ended up with some exposed raw edges, and due to the open weave I didn't want to risk damaging the fabric with lots of unpicking, so I left it as is.

... not so good from the inside.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this top, which has already become one of those "wear, straight into the machine, straight out and onto my back" type shirts. I have worn it to work, casually and on a night out. I think the fabric works well with the pattern. As I said, it's a little less loose (more fitted?) than the Scout, which took me a bit to get used to, but I do like it. I love the cuffed sleeves, which are a little different to anything else I have in my wardrobe, and I like the wider scoop neck.

Cuff detail

One word of warning: this pattern is a wee bit of a fabric eater. With the grown on/kimono style sleeves I couldn't fit the front and back side by side with a double fold. My fabric was only 106cm wide, but I would have been able to do this with the Scout. Plus there is the bias tape pattern piece which is quite long. To conserve fabric I ended up actually cutting this in half and cutting 2 (adding SA) and then joining them, but that then meant I had to think about where to place my bias tape so I didn't have a join at CF (I placed the join at one shoulder and then closed the tape at the other shoulder). I bought 1.5m and I think i have about 20cm left of the full width, plus fairly decent sized scraps that are only about 40cm wide. I reckon with 150cm wide fabric, I might be able to fit the bodice pieces side by side, and thus have got away with a metre of fabric, and if I'd made the version without cuffs, I probably could have fit it into a metre of the narrower width. It doesn't matter too much, but I do like to have a selection of patterns I can make with a metre of fabric, as then I can better justify (and afford) the pricier ones I always seem to want.

This is a good versatile pattern to have in the arsenal. I can see this made up in a wide variety of fabrics, and I am looking forward to trying it in some knits too.

Baby Boy. Not really a baby any more.

We took these photos at Jupiter Artland, where we went last Sunday for Father's Day and Small Boy's birthday, which was Monday. It's a privately owned sculpture park near Edinburgh, which is utterly amazingly beautiful. You just wander round the grounds of the house (a private residence), stumbling across these fantastic (and sometimes creepy) works of art, some by well known artists such as Anish Kapoor, Jim Lambie, Anthony Gormley and Charles Jencks. Here is a selection of my photos which seriously don't do it justice.

Jim Lambie. And the McFadyens.

Anish Kapoor

Anthony Gormley

Weeping Girls by Laura Ford. Particularly creepy if you are a Doctor Who fan.

this is lovely! I do like the look of the pattern, but was put off because I thought it was slightly too pricey for what it is. But reading this has made me look again - I overlooked the various options etc, so might just add it to the list of patterns to try!

Really lovely top - I can see why it's on high rotation! The fabric is just beautiful, and the effect of the neckline binding is really striking. I love this pattern and plan to get it once the warmer weather rolls around again - not much call for it here at the moment!

This is a gorgeous top - the fabric is lovely and it looks so good on you. I really like those cuffs and the raglan sleeve option. I really should try & get to Jupiter Artland while I'm up this time, it looks fab!

Lesson Title: Adapting to Challenges in Business

Introduction:
Businesses around the world have faced numerous challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In this lesson, we will learn about how businesses have adapted to these challenges, the particular challenges facing parents, the support and guidance businesses want, and what 'build back better' means in practical ways for business.

Section 1: How Have Businesses Been Adapting?

Businesses have had to adapt quickly to the changes brought about by the pandemic. Some businesses have moved their operations online, while others have had to change their business models entirely. For example, restaurants have had to switch to takeout and delivery services, while many retail stores have closed their physical locations and moved to online sales.

Questions and Answers:
- How have businesses been adapting to the challenges brought about by the pandemic?
- What are some examples of businesses that have adapted successfully?
- What challenges have businesses faced during the pandemic?

Section 2: Particular Challenges Facing Parents

The pandemic has brought unique challenges for parents, particularly for mothers who are often responsible for childcare. With schools and daycares closed, many parents have had to balance working from home while also caring for their children. This has led to increased stress and anxiety for many parents.

Questions and Answers:
- What are the particular challenges facing parents during the pandemic?
- How have these challenges affected parents' mental health?
- What support and guidance do parents need during this time?

Section 3: Support and Guidance for Businesses

Businesses have expressed a need for support and guidance from both the government and other organizations. They want clear and consistent guidelines on how to operate safely and maintain social distancing measures. Additionally, they want financial support to help them weather the economic impact of the pandemic.

Questions and Answers:
- What support and guidance do businesses want during the pandemic?
- How can businesses operate safely while maintaining social distancing measures?
- What financial support is available to businesses during the pandemic?

Section 4: Will Businesses Try to Return Back to Normal, or Are Some of the Adaptations Here to Stay?

As businesses begin to reopen, there is a question of whether they will try to return to their pre-pandemic operations or if some of the adaptations made during the pandemic will become permanent. Some businesses have found that remote work is effective and cost-saving, while others have discovered new ways to reach customers online.

Questions and Answers:
- Will businesses try to return back to normal, or are some of the adaptations here to stay?
- What are some examples of businesses that have found new ways to operate during the pandemic?
- How can businesses balance the benefits of remote work with the need for face-to-face collaboration?

Section 5: What Does 'Build Back Better' Mean in Practical Ways for Business?

The phrase 'build back better' has been used to describe the effort to rebuild the economy after the pandemic. In practical ways, this means supporting businesses that were negatively impacted by the pandemic while also investing in sustainable and equitable growth.

Questions and Answers:
- What does 'build back better' mean in practical ways for business?
- How can businesses contribute to sustainable and equitable growth?
- What role do governments play in 'building back better'?

Glossary:
- Pandemic: A widespread epidemic of an infectious disease that affects a large number of people across the globe.
- Social distancing: The practice of maintaining physical distance from others to prevent the spread of infectious diseases.
- Remote work: Work that is done outside of a traditional office setting, often from home.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the pandemic has brought significant challenges for businesses, but it has also forced innovation and adaptation. As businesses begin to reopen, they must balance the benefits of returning to normal operations with the need to maintain safety measures. Additionally, the concept of 'build back better' highlights the importance of sustainable and equitable growth for the future of the economy. By understanding the challenges facing businesses and the opportunities for growth, we can apply these lessons to new problems and situations.

Q:

A strange trigonometric identity

In this paper, equation (4.5), the authors state the trigonometic identity
$$
\sin\left( \frac{n\pi }{1-\theta}  \right) = (-1)^{n} \sin\left( \frac{n\pi \theta}{1-\theta}\right)
$$
Nothing like it is on Wikipedia's list of trigonometric identities. How can we prove this?

A:

Hint:
Just write
$$\sin\left( \frac{n\pi }{1-\theta}  \right) =\sin\left( \frac{n\pi(1-\theta + \theta) }{1-\theta}  \right) = \sin\left(n\pi + \frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}  \right) $$
Now, apply the addition formula for $\sin(\alpha + \beta)$.

textbook:
Lesson: Trigonometric Identities

Introduction:
Trigonometric identities are essential tools in mathematics that help us solve problems involving triangles and angles. In this lesson, we will learn about a strange trigonometric identity and how to prove it.

Objective:
By the end of this lesson, students will be able to understand the strange trigonometric identity, its proof, and how to apply it to solve problems.

Section 1: Understanding the Strange Trigonometric Identity

Topic 1: The Trigonometric Identity
The strange trigonometric identity is given by:
$$
\sin\left( \frac{n\pi }{1-\theta}  \right) = (-1)^{n} \sin\left( \frac{n\pi \theta}{1-\theta}\right)
$$
where n is an integer, and θ is a real number between 0 and 1.

Topic 2: Proof of the Identity
To prove this identity, we can use the addition formula for sine, which states that:
$$
\sin(\alpha + \beta) = \sin(\alpha)\cos(\beta) + \cos(\alpha)\sin(\beta)
$$

Applying this formula to our identity, we get:
$$
\sin\left( \frac{n\pi }{1-\theta}  \right) =\sin\left( \frac{n\pi(1-\theta + \theta) }{1-\theta}  \right) = \sin\left(n\pi + \frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}  \right)
$$

Using the addition formula again, we can rewrite the right side of the equation as:
$$
\sin\left(n\pi + \frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}  \right)  = \sin(n\pi)\cos\left(\frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}\right) + \cos(n\pi)\sin\left(\frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}\right)
$$

Now, we can use the double angle formula for sine, which states that:
$$
\sin(2\alpha) = 2\sin(\alpha)\cos(\alpha)
$$

Applying this formula to our expression, we get:
$$
\sin\left(n\pi + \frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}  \right)  = \sin(n\pi)\cos\left(\frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}\right) + \cos(n\pi)\sin\left(\frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}\right)
$$

Simplifying, we get:
$$
\sin\left(n\pi + \frac{n\pi\theta}{1-\theta}  \right)  = \sin(n\pi)(1 - \theta) + \cos(n\pi)\theta
$$

Comparing this to our original identity, we can see that they are equivalent. Therefore, the strange trigonometric identity holds.

Section 2: Applying the Identity

Topic 1: Example Problem
Let's use the strange trigonometric identity to solve a problem:

Problem: Find the value of sin(π/3).

Solution: Using the strange trigonometric identity, we have:
$$
\sin\left( \frac{3\pi}{2} \right) = \sin\left( \frac{3\pi}{2} + \frac{3\pi}{2} \right) = \sin\left( 2\cdot \frac{3\pi}{2} \right)
$$

Applying the strange trigonometric identity, we get:
$$
\sin\left( \frac{3\pi}{2} \right) = \sin\left( 2\cdot \frac{3\pi}{2} \right) = \sin(3\pi)(-1)^3
$$

Since sin(3π) = 0, we have:
$$
\sin\left( \frac{3\pi}{2} \right) = 0
$$

Topic 2: Practice Problems
1. Prove the strange trigonometric identity for n = 2.
2. Use the strange trigonometric identity to find the value of sin(2π/3).
3. Solve a problem using the strange trigonometric identity.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about the strange trigonometric identity and how to prove it using the addition and double angle formulas for sine. We also applied the identity to solve a problem involving sin(π/3). By understanding this identity, we can solve similar problems involving trigonometric functions.


text: During the day, in addition to reading the Megillah, we also read Shemoth 17:8-16, which tells us about the victory over Amalek. Amalek was the first nation to challenge the People of Israel after we left Egypt.. Even though we won the battle, HaShem promised to erased the memory of the people of Amalek, because they alone dared to try to destroy the Jews after knowing the miracles that HaShem had performed.. The story of Purim is another example of Amalek, in the disguise of Haman, trying to destroy the People of Israel. Once again we won and are free to worship HaShem.

textbook:
Lesson: The Battle Against Amalek

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about the battle against Amalek and how it relates to the story of Purim. We will explore the significance of this battle and its impact on Jewish history.

Section 1: The Battle Against Amalek

The battle against Amalek took place during the time of Moses and Aaron. Amalek was the first nation to attack the People of Israel after they left Egypt. Despite being outnumbered and outmatched, the Jews won the battle with the help of God.

Question: Why did Amalek attack the Jews?
Answer: Amalek attacked the Jews because they knew that the Jews were weak and vulnerable after leaving Egypt. They saw this as an opportunity to take advantage of them.

Section 2: The Significance of the Battle Against Amalek

The battle against Amalek was significant because it was the first time that a nation openly defied the Jews and their God. It showed that even though the Jews had won their freedom from slavery, they still faced opposition and persecution from others.

Question: What was the outcome of the battle?
Answer: The Jews won the battle, but God promised to erase the memory of the people of Amalek because they dared to try to destroy the Jews after knowing the miracles that God had performed.

Section 3: The Connection to Purim

The story of Purim is another example of Amalek, in the disguise of Haman, trying to destroy the People of Israel. Haman was a descendant of Amalek, and he sought to wipe out the Jews just as his ancestors had tried to do centuries before.

Question: How did the Jews respond to Haman's plot?
Answer: The Jews banded together and stood up to Haman, just as their ancestors had done against Amalek. They refused to be victims and instead chose to fight for their freedom and their right to worship God.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the battle against Amalek was a pivotal moment in Jewish history. It demonstrated that even when the odds were against them, the Jews could triumph with the help of God. The story of Purim serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle against those who seek to destroy the Jewish people. By studying this battle and its connection to Purim, we can better understand the importance of standing up for our beliefs and fighting against those who seek to harm us.

Glossary:
- Amalek: The first nation to challenge the People of Israel after they left Egypt.
- Purim: A Jewish holiday commemorating the defeat of Haman's plot to destroy the Jews.
- Haman: The main antagonist in the story of Purim.

Q:

Using regex to extract string position Python

I'm trying to extract the position (index) of a substring using regex. I need to use regex because the string won't be exactly the same. I want to get the position of the substring (either starting or ending position), so I can take the 1,000 characters following that substring.
For example, if I had "while foreign currencies are traded frequently, very little money is made by most." I want to find the position of "foreign currencies" so I can get all the words after.
f5 is the text.
I've tried:
p = re.compile("((^\s*|\.\s*)foreign\s*(currency|currencies))?")
for m in p.finditer(f5):
    print m.start(), m.group()

to get the location. This gives me (0,0) even though I've checked to make sure the regex picks up what I'm looking for in the text.
I've also tried:
location = re.search(r"((^\s*|\.\s*)foreign\s*(currency|currencies))?", f5)
print location

Output is <_sre.SRE_Match at 0x297d3328>
If I try
location.span()

I get (0,0) again.
Basically, I want to convert <_sre.SRE_Match at 0x297d3328> into an integer that gives the location of the search term.
I've spent half a day searching for a solution. Thanks for any help.

A:

In addition to previous solutions/comments, if you want all the words after, you can just do something like:
>>> location = re.search(r".*foreign\s*currenc(y|ies)(.*)", f5)
