Carte Blanche. The driving forces of color revolution in February 1917
Photo from the archive of the state museum of the political history rossiyskogo can show itself a chronicle of the events of the february revolution. February 23 (march 8), 1917, crowds of workers and ordinary people marched from the outskirts to the centre of petrograd. In the city centre there were first skirmishes with the cossacks and police. Strikers widely used tactics of "Removal" of neighboring plants, with the power of forcing them to join the strike.
Serious reasons for unrest was not. Small-scale conflicts with the administration of the factories, of course, does not count. Two days later, military units started to join the rebels. From nicholas ii abdicated all – and the state duma, and about 30 grand dukes and duchesses of the romanov family. The bishops of the church have unanimously renounced the king is actually head of the orthodox church. February 26, crowds of people released from prisons of political prisoners and more than 4 thousand criminals.
At the same time the rebels seized the arsenal. A well-known designer of artillery systems, major-general nikolai zabudskii was killed in the arsenal. And 40 thousand of rifles have become the prey of the attackers. On the morning of february 27, creates something like a government – the provisional committee of the state duma, which later transformirovalsya the provisional government. The head of the committee, rodzianko, members nekrasov, kerensky, milyukov, chkheidze and co.
Further well-known. The army chief of staff general alekseev organized by telegraph "General referendum". All interviewed commanders of fronts and fleets called for the abdication of the king. Small detail – in the days of the rebellion in petrograd, in the whole vast empire reigned peace and grace. As you can see, there is a classical color revolution.
The february revolution took place without a hitch. But the organizers went into the shadows. Talking about the organization of the february riots was not safe in Russia gets thrown in jail in Europe will shoot the monarchists. But almost 70 years of soviet functionaries and professors argued that the february revolution was organized by the bolsheviks, and were not given any names. Curious what led by freemasons, the liberal bourgeoisie have spent two years preparing a coup at state expense.
The masonic elite is used to create structures of the future government in petrograd and throughout the country the legal state and public organizations, such as state duma, city council, various provincial structures. The war was literally manna from heaven for the masons. District councils in patriotic impulse rushed to help the front. In 1915 on the basis of the zemstvos and municipal dumas was created zemgor – "Public" organization for the distribution of state defense orders. It was headed by the freemason high-level prince george lvov.
Zemgor got our hands on a great power, as he operated a huge funds, which belonged to no social organizations, and the state. In august 1915 zemgor seeking permission to organize a militia at the expense of the treasury of the persons subject to conscription into the army. Permission for such squads has caused a general protest of the patriotic forces. Their fears were right "Singulary" preparing to become the new bureaucratic apparatus on the ground.
In the second half of 1915 the city government in the provincial cities actually comes under the control sephora. However, soon after color the petrograd revolution started the bloody Russian revolution. There were mass killings of officers in the army and navy, collapsed military discipline, the officers lost control over the parts entrusted to them. In the villages starts creeping civil war – the defeat of the estates, arson, and armed clashes. I repeat, bloody revolution in march-april 1917 gained momentum against the wishes of freemasons, and without the influence of the bolsheviks. Revolution was everywhere, even in the orthodox church.
Since the abdication of the king and 25 october 1917, the provisional government did not control the kronstadt, which became virtually an independent state. City of the little Russian provinces partially subordinated to the provisional government, partly by the central council. Steppe crimea was ruled by self-styled kurultai. A little Russian village was controlled by the local chieftains. When nicholas ii, all of cossack troops was a mainstay of the autocracy and was ruled by an elected, i. E.
Appointed king by the chieftains. In february 1917, not a single cossack army had not stood up for nicholas ii. But everywhere ataman was replaced by the elective. In fact, there was an independent state education – the don army, kuban army, etc.
It is important to note that the separatists of all stripes claimed not only the lands inhabited by their peoples, but in vast regions dominated by persons of other nationalities. Thus, the poles demanded the revival of the commonwealth "From mozha to mozha", that is, from the baltic to the black sea. The finns claimed the kola peninsula, arkhangelsk and vologda provinces, as well as all karelia. Territorial claims of the separatists repeatedly overlap.
So, odessa was claimed by poles, ukrainians and romanians. It is clear that without a great civil war to resolve these territorial disputes was possible. The ministers of the provisional government, torn throats, screaming about counter-revolution. Well, from november of 1917 did the soviet commissars. In fact, no counter-revolution in Russia was not neither the provisional government nor the soviet authorities. It is in France from 1792 to 1804, there was a powerful movement of monarchists, who sought the restoration of the bourbon dynasty.
And we have from march 1917 to 1921, and no one demanded the restoration of the romanov dynasty. White in France – those who were against the republic under white flags with the royal lilies. And we anti-communists with the flag, introduced at the beginning of the twentieth century, were called "White" by analogy with the french, that is simply a misunderstanding. The party in russia, currents and factions fought for power, money and territories under a variety of slogans, in addition to the restoration of the monarchy.

Architype Van Doesburg is a geometric sans-serif typeface based upon a 1919 alphabet designed by Theo van Doesburg, a cofounder of the De Stijl art movement. The digital revival shown at right was produced by Freda Sack and David Quay of The Foundry.

The face is constructed entirely of perpendicular evenly weighted strokes. Each character is based upon a square divided into a raster of 25 smaller squares. Van Doesburg's earliest uses of the alphabet was in limited quantity, made up of letterpress ruling pieces, and not as strictly formed as his more finished 1919 version. A similarly constructed rectilinear sans-serif typeface, designed in 1917 by Piet Zwart bears comparison. The face is similar to Van Doesburg's later 1928 alphabet designed for the Café Aubette in Strasbourg. Both faces anticipate later typographic explorations of geometric reductionism of Wim Crouwel's 1967 New Alphabet and early digital faces like Zuzana Licko's faces Lo-Res and Emperor 8. The Architype Van Doesburg typeface is part of a collection of several revivals of early twentieth century typographic experimentation designed by Freda Sack and David Quay of The Foundry.

The burden of treatment and compliance with the epinephrine auto-injector (EAI) in food allergic patients of all ages: a pilot study

Food allergic patients at risk for severe reactions should carry an epinephrine auto-injector (EAI). This treatment entails a burden for them and therefore may affect their compliance. Although the burden of treatment of an EAI has previously been shown to be high in vespid allergic patients, this has not yet been studied in food allergic patients. Therefore we determined the overall burden of treatment with the EAI in food allergic patients as perceived by both patients themselves and the parents of food allergic children. Furthermore, we examined the outcome of food allergic reactions requiring EAI use.
Food allergic patients of all ages prescribed an EAI, attending an allergy clinic and the parents of food allergic children (aged 0-17 years) were asked to complete the following questionnaires: the Burden of Treatment instrument (BoT), which was our primary outcome, the Food Allergy Independent Measure questionnaire (FAIM), EAI positive and negative statements, questions concerning EAI prescription and use, and descriptive questions.
A total of 95 subjects were eligible for analysis. Two subjects were excluded because they did not complete the BoT. Of the remaining 93, 69 subjects (74%) were (extremely) positive about the EAI. Only 3 subjects were (slightly) negative about the EAI. In 31 patients epinephrine injection was needed, because of at least one allergic reaction. Out of these 31 patients, 11 did not carry an EAI with them at the time of the food allergic reaction. Only 2 patients (aged 16 and 21) were administered an EAI dose by someone other than themselves or their parents. There were no deaths.
In contrast to vespid venom allergic patients, food allergic patients and their parents are (extremely) positive about carrying an EAI. Despite this, compliance with carrying the device or using it when necessary seems to be very low.

Surface Matching based on External and Internal Anatomy of the Temporal Bone Applicable for Lateral Skull Base Surgery

Surgical navigation on the lateral skull base (LSB) demands submillimetre accuracies that are unachievable with commercially available image-guidance systems. Advanced image-guidance technology however, allows for navigation with sufficient accuracy as reported in several works during the last decades. The key element to fully exploit the capability of advanced image-guidance technology is the patient-to-image registration. The routine use of navigation in LSB procedures requires sufficient navigation accuracy provided at a low effort and a wide range of application. Utilising bone anchored fiducials, registration errors of approximately 0.1 mm are achieved [1]. However, the additional required computed tomographic (CT) imaging renders the approach unsuitable for most LSB procedures. For LSB procedures requiring a retroauricular incision, surface matching (SM) based registration of the mastoid (MAS) surface was proposed [2]. The effort inherent to SM based registration is low compared to registration based on PPM of artificial fiducials. However, the range of application of the proposed method is limited. Endoscopic transcanal LSB procedures, a set of surgical approaches with increasing popularity, additionally allow for the exploitation of the bony anatomy of the external auditory canal (EAC) and the middle ear cavity (MEC) for SM.
We hypothesize that SM applied on external and internal anatomy of the temporal bone provides target registration errors (TREs) errors below 1 mm. The aim of this study was to determine associated TREs on human cadaveric specimens.
In an experiment on two human cadaveric temporal specimens we measured TREs registrations based on SM of external and internal anatomical regions of the temporal bone. PPM with fiducial screws yielded ground truth (GT) registrations.
Sample Preparation and Surgical Planning
Subsequent to performing a retroauricular incision, the two specimens were implanted with four fiducial screws and underwent computed tomography imaging (0.16 mm x 0.16 mm x 0.2 mm). Finally, each specimen was prepared with an endoscopically performed tympanomeatal flap.
The screws were automatically localized in the images using a surgical planning software [3]. The surface of the mastoid (MAS), the EAC and the MEC were manually segmented in Amira (FEI, France). Furthermore, four points on the MAS were defined (mastoid process, temporal line posterior to EAC, two in between) to provide an initial coarse alignment for the SM based registrations.
The planned data was loaded onto our navigation system designed for LSB surgery. The registration tool (length: 6 cm, diameter: 1 mm) was calibrated for each specimen, prior to the experiments. The tracking camera (CamBar B1, Axios3D, Germany) was installed opposite to the surgeon. A dynamic reference base (DRB) was fixed on the specimens with a single surgical screw a few millimetres inferior the temporal line and posterior to the EAC.
For the initialisation of the SM based registrations, the four predefined anatomical landmarks on the MAS were digitized on each specimen. Subsequently, 50 points were scanned on the MAS, the EAC and the MEC successively six times by three surgeons on both specimens (Fig. 1). Surgeons were instructed to collect points with a wide spread whilst minimizing tool bending and ensuring the contact with the surface. A foot pedal was used for digitisation control.
Prior to every second attempt of surface scanning, the implanted screws were digitized for the GT registrations. Care was taken to not move the specimen locator between the surface scanning and the screw digitisation.
Registrations and Target Registration Errors
SM based registrations were calculated using an iterative closest point algorithm [4] initialised by a coarse initial registrations based on PPM [5] of mastoid surface landmarks, resulting in 36 registrations per surface. Registrations based on combinations of the surface of the MAS, the EAC or the MEC were simulated 100 times for each attempt by randomly sampling equal portions of scanned points from the involved surfaces. Consequently, the resulting combinative surface also consisted of 50 points. This yielded 3600 registrations per combinative surface.
The GT registrations were calculated using PPM [5] of the fiducial screw positions in the image and reference frame.
The TRE of each registration was calculated at 10 anatomical landmarks: round window, facial nerve at the pyramidal eminence and at the geniculate ganglion, facial recess, oval window, jugular vein, internal carotid artery, fundus and porus of internal auditory canal, petrous apex. The TREs were calculated as the distance between the landmark (selected in the image frame) transformed to the specimen's reference frame by the registration to be evaluated, and the same landmark transformed to the specimen's reference frame via the corresponding GT registration.
The median TRE of the most accurate SM based registration, SM based on all three surfaces combined, was 0.37 mm with 100% of all measured TREs below 1 mm (Fig. 2). Among the SM based registration procedures, at least 95% of all measured TREs of all procedures except SM based on the EAC were below 1 mm.
The time required for SM including the initial coarse alignment was 4.3 +/- 1.5 min.
In this work SM based registration of internal and external anatomical structures of the temporal bone was evaluated and submillimetre TREs suitable for LSB navigation were observed.
While transcanal access to internal anatomy limits the diameter hence rigidity of the employed pointer thus increasing the error of surface digitisation, proximity of the structures to target anatomy results in accuracies and precisions similar to those observed in mastoid surface registration. TREs of registrations based on the mastoid surface alone were similar to those reported in earlier work [2]. However, the addition of surface points from internal anatomy improved the registration precision. Furthermore, this study suggests that surfaces exposed in transcanal procedures (EAC, MEC) provide sufficient accuracy for navigation in the LSB extending the area of application from microscopic transmastoidal to endoscopic transcanal procedures. While landmarks on the mastoid surface were used for SM initialisation in all registrations during this study, points from internal anatomy could alternatively be used to remove the need to expose the mastoid surface in transcanal procedures.

Na teoria dos modelos, o problema da função exponencial de Tarski pergunta se a teoria dos números reais junto com a função exponencial é decidível. Alfred Tarski tinha mostrado anteriormente que a teoria dos números reais (sem a função exponencial) é decidível.

O problema
O campo real ordenado R é uma estrutura sobre a linguagem dos anéis ordenados Lor = (+,·,−,<,0,1), com a interpretação usual dada a cada símbolo. Foi provado por Tarski que a teoria do corpo real, Th(R), é decidível. Isto é, dado qualquer Lor-sentença φ não é um procedimento eficaz para determinar se

Ele então perguntou se este era o caso de se acrescentar uma função unária  exp  para a linguagem que foi interpretada como a função exponencial em R, para obter a estrutura Rexp.

Resultados condicionais e equivalentes
O problema pode ser reduzido para buscar um procedimento eficaz para determinar se um dado polinomial exponencial em n variáveis e com coeficientes em Z possui uma solução em R. Angus Macintyre & Alex Wilkie em 1995 mostraram que a conjectura de Schanuel implica num procedimento existente deste tipo, e, portanto, deu uma solução condicional para o problema de Tarski. A conjectura de Schanuel lida com todos os números complexos assim seria esperado para ser um resultado mais forte do que a decidibilidade de Rexp e, de fato, Macintyre e Wilkie provaram que apenas uma versão real da conjectura de Schanuel é necessária para implicar na decidibilidade desta teoria.

Mesmo a versão real da conjectura de Schanuel não é uma condição necessária para a decidibilidade da teoria. Em seu papel, Macintyre e Wilkie mostraram que um resultado equivalente à decidibilidade de Th(Rexp) é o que eles nomearam de Conjectura Fraca do Schanuel. Esta conjectura afirma que existe um procedimento eficaz que, dado n ≥ 1 e exponenciais polinômios em n variáveis com coeficientes inteiros f1, ..., fn, g, produz um inteiro η ≥ 1 que depende de n, f1, ... , fn, g, e de tal modo que se α ∈ R é uma solução não singular do sistema

então ou g(a)=0 ou |g(a)|>η.

Solução alternativa
Recentemente, existem tentativas de lidar com a teoria dos números reais com funções como exp, levando a decidibilidade à noção mais fraca de quasi-decidibilidade. Uma teoria é quasi-decidível se, e somente se, existe um procedimento que leva a satisfatibilidade mas que pode correr para sempre para as entradas que não são robustas em certo sentido, bem definido. Existe um procedimento deste tipo para os sistemas de n equações em n variáveis (Franek, Ratschan & Zgliczynski (2011)) .

Access to mental health (MH) care continues to be a challenging issue for VHA. A VA State-of-the-Art Conference (SOTA) in September 2010 on the topic of "Improving Access to VA Care" created a perceived access framework which included five conceptual domains (i.e., geographical, temporal, financial, cultural and digital). To our knowledge, none of the available access measures encompasses all five of these domains. In particular, the perceived access to digital or e-health encounters is absent from existing measures. The first SOTA research recommendation was to develop and validate actual and perceived metrics of Veteran-centered access to VA and non-VA services.
The overall objective of this proposal is to generate a psychometrically sound patient-centered measure of Veterans' perceived access to MH treatments, with particular attention to the intersection of perceived access and e-health technologies.
We will accomplish this by (1) collecting qualitative data from VA patients about their experience considering or accessing mental health services in order to generate survey items that are informed by the SOTA Access model, (2) assessing the content validity of the items and constructing a preliminary version of the Perceived Access Inventory (PAI), and (3) evaluating (concurrent and predictive validity and reliability) and refining a final version of the PAI. We will recruit VA patients from community-based outpatient clinics in three VA Networks (VISNs): Arkansas, Maine, and Northern California. We will conduct qualitative interviews with approximately 90 VA patients and ask them about their perceived access to mental health services using the SOTA Access framework to structure the interviews. We will use content analysis methods including an expert panel to construct a preliminary version of the PAI and then administer this instrument to a sample of 100 VA CBOC patients to evaluate the validity and reliability of this measure and perform analyses for potential item reduction. A fourth aim was added to collect qualitative data from Veterans using Choice Act community care for mental health treatment to see if any items needed to be added to the PAI that are specific to accessing community care mental health services.
Transcripts from 80 Veterans across 3 VISNs were coded, internal expert panel review and external expert panel modified Delphi panel were completed. Qualitative data and existing access items were used to generate 240 items that addressed all five SOTA domains and two additional domains (healthcare systems and experiences of care). The initial 240 items were reduced to 40 through consolidation by the research team and two rounds of external Delphi process. Following Veteran/patient pilot testing, the final version of the PAI has 43 items in six domains (logistics (combines geographical, temporal, financial from SOTA model)=5 items, culture=3, digital=9, systems=13, and experiences of care=13). Separate versions are available for Veterans who used VA mental health services within the past year, those who used services more than a year ago, and those who have never used VA mental health services. Additional work is ongoing for a version that will be specific to the use of Choice Act mental health services.
Although instruments are available to measure perceived geographical, temporal, financial, and cultural access to care, we are not aware of any that address access to e-health or were developed with extensive Veteran patient input. The PAI will provide a perceived access measure that will allow policy makers and researchers to identify populations and facilities for future quality improvement and treatment engagement efforts and directly measure the impact of these efforts. We will also be able to validate the VA State of the Art (SOTA) Access model with the cultural domain analysis from these data. We are working with Central Office partners throughout this project. We will also examine the need for Choice Act specific PAI questions.

Q: Is there any method in Mongodb that hides after transactions complete? I've created a simple multi-vendor ecommerce, but I'm wondering if there is any method or technique I can use to hide a specific item once the transaction is already complete?
Like for example. If the item is already sold, it should be deleted/hide from the productslist  in the front end?
I was thinking making the seller delete the product he sold but it will also affect other document because it's using information.
Like for example . Shoe Cabinet is sold, it means that it should disappear to product list but still existing in the database so in the order table, it's still there.

EDIT
So if we apply it in real life, once the item is sold, it should not be appearing in the web page right? so I'm having a trouble what method should i do, because all of my documents are connected to one each other. So if the seller decide to delete the product. The admin as well as the seller dashboard because it's  data gets deleted, is there anyway , or method should I use in mongodb.. I'm wondering if there is a hide function wherein the seller has the ability to hide the products but not delete id.
EDIT AGAIN
So I have an idea, I don't if this is a good approach, what if I create another request wherein it will get all order transaction related to that product, and then create a filter method.
if product is already existing in order transaction,
    then don't show it to website.

There are many unique businesses offering unique services to seniors in Atlanta. Unique services for musicians and linguists are just a couple of services that some seniors in Atlanta might be able to benefit from. As the senior population in Atlanta increases, many businesses are catering to more mature customers who they view as more reliable and more dependable.
There are more and more businesses that are choosing to cater to the "more mature" crowd, finding this group "more dependable", "more honest", "more interesting".
There are unique services that are good for everyone, but which the "more mature" crowd might enjoy even more, if only they knew they existed.
And then there are businesses that provide services for "senior-related" businesses.
We look for these kinds of unique businesses that don't fit into any of our other categories. Below is what we have so far. We'll keep looking.


This article discusses how to request and implement licenses for the Riva On-Premise server.
How to confirm the status of a licence.
Demo: This is deployed as soon as you open Riva the first time. You can create connections between Riva and your email system, as well as between Riva and your CRM, but you cannot synchronize. In demo mode, you can request a synchronization and the sync log displays the same sorts of entries that Riva would output during a sync, but the sync is not being performed. The demo mode is intended only to give an idea of what Riva On-Premise does.
Trial License: Allows full CRM synchronization functionality for the period that the license is issued for. When the license expires, data is no longer synced between the email system and the CRM system. Trial licenses are usually limited to 5 users for 15 days.
Purchase License: Allows full CRM synchronization functionality for the period that the license is issued for. When the license expires, data is no longer synced between the email system and the CRM system. Purchase licenses are for an annual term for the desired number of users that Riva can sync.
Sandbox/Testing License: Allows for full Riva functionality in a dedicated testing environment. For more information, contact the Riva Success Team.
Trial license: Request a license after configuring and testing the mail server and CRM connections, but before creating a CRM synchronization policy.
Purchase license: Request at any time before your trial license expires. You can also request a purchase license even if you have not had a trial license, for example if a partner of Riva International, Inc. has done all the testing for you and provided you with the connection and configuration files that you need to request your license and to sync with.
The Riva On-Premise server is licensed as per a subscription model based on the number of email users and the number of CRM users which Riva will sync data for. If more email users are to be synced than there are CRM users to be synced, the cost of the Riva licence is increased according to the extra number of email users being synced; likewise, if there are more CRM users to be synced than there are email users to be synced, the licensing cost is increased according to the extra number of CRM users to be synced.
Riva supports multiple internet email domains, provided that every domain is identified in the licence request.
Start the Riva Manager application. On the menu bar, select Request License.
On the Welcome to the Riva Licence Wizard page, select Next.
On the Choose Licensing page, under CRM Integration, select the email platform, and select Next.
Riva Licensing does not license CRM systems based on an IP address. The CRM must be licensed against a fully qualified domain name. If your CRM is listed as an IP address, you need to recreate your CRM connection in Riva and submit a new licence request.
On the CRM Licensing page, ensure that the desired CRM connection is displayed, and select Next.
On the Select the Domain(s) to License page, if the desired email domain is on the list and you are licensing only that email domain, select Next.
If the list is empty or you need to include more than one email domain, select add >> to the right of the box. Only email addresses in these domains will be authorized to sync.
In the Select Entities window, type the email address of a user with a different email domain name, and select check name >>.
If the Mailbox account resolves through the mail server connection, the Mailbox name becomes underlined. Select add >> to add the email address and domain to the list.
For each different email domain that needs to be licensed through this connection, repeat this process.
Select OK to add the domain names to the domains to license.
On the Select the Domain(s) to License page, below the list box, select a Trial or Purchase license, and specify the number of accounts to license.
On the Contact Information page, fill in the information, and select Next.
A .request file located in the \Riva\LicenseRequests folder.
A .license file located in the \Riva\License folder. This is an unsigned license file.
If you have already selected Yes earlier and the automatic submission has failed, select No, and see Request a license manually.
If the licence request upload was successful, Riva displays a successful Completed message box.
Close the Completed message box.
Close the Riva Manager application.
Wait to receive an email with an activation key or a licence file.
Jot down the path to the .request file, because you will need it to request the license manually. The path should point to the \Riva\LicenseRequests folder.
If the Licence Request wizard fails or if you selected No on the Submit Request Electronically? page, the Riva wizard displays a Completed window that prompts you to email us the file that was created.
Create an email to send to licensing@omni-ts.com.
Attach the .request file that is described at step 7.
For trial licence requests, you will receive an email with an activation key and a corresponding license file.
How to manually apply a replacement licence file.
Start the Riva Manager application. In the Home tab, note the text box for pasting the activation key.
From the email, copy and paste the activation key into the text box.
IMPORTANT: All the equal signs (=) at the top and bottom of the activation key ARE PART AND PARCEL of the activation key.
In the Activation Success! message box, select OK.
Under certain conditions, applying the activation key may fail. If that occurs, follow the steps in How to manually apply a licence file, using the licence file attached to the email that delivered the trial licence activation key.
In some circumstances, the license activation key does not work. In some circumstances, you may need to apply more than one licence file to a Riva server.
Note: This procedure is not used to apply a replacement license file, that is, a license file that replaces an existing license file that has expired or for which additional connections have been added. For the correct instructions, see How to apply a replacement license file.
In the CRM Service Monitor application, or in Windows services, stop the CRM Agent service.
In the top left of the Riva Manager application, double-click the Riva logo.
In the About Riva window that appears, double-click the Riva version number.
Windows Explorer displays the contents of the \Riva folder, which is the root folder of the Riva server installation.
Navigate to the \Riva\Licenses folder. Remove the existing [guid_crmex].licensees file and any .license file. Copy the new .license file that you received, and paste it into the \Riva\Licenses folder.
Close and restart the Riva Manager application.
On the menu or in the Policies tab, right-click the applicable sync policy, and select License Details.
In the License Details window, confirm that the licence details are correct.
If the licence details are not correct, email your licence file to the Riva Success Team at support@omni-ts.com, and explain the issue.
If the licence details are correct, close the Licence Details window.
In the Riva CRM Service Monitor application, start the service, and confirm that there are no licence errors in any of the Activity Monitor panes.
If you encounter any errors, contact the Riva Success Team.
If this is the first licence file being applied, navigate to the \Riva\Licenses folder, and remove the existing files.
If this is to replace an existing Riva licence file, rename the \Riva\Licenses folder to \Riva\Licenses.old, and create an empty \Riva\Licenses folder. This saves the existing licence files in case you have to roll back to a previous licence. In subsequent attempts to replace an existing licence, move the existing licence files to the \Riva\Licenses.old folder.
Copy the replacement licence file you have received, and paste it into the \Riva\Licenses folder.
On the menu or in the Policies tab, right-click the applicable sync policy, and select Licence Details.
In the Licence Details window, confirm that the licence details are correct.
In the Riva CRM Service Monitor application, start the service, and confirm that there are no license errors in any of the Activity Monitor panes.
If you need a trial licence extension or would like to purchase a licence, contact the Riva Success Team to request the correct licence file. Licence extensions and purchase licences are delivered as a licence file attached to an email and are always manually applied to Riva.

Omicron updates: Scientist projects third wave to hit India by February, may be milder than second
India has so far reported 23 cases of the Omicron variant, including 17 on Sunday- nine persons from Rajasthan capital Jaipur, seven in Maharashtra's Pune district and a fully vaccinated man who arrived in Delhi from Tanzania.
India records 8,306 new coronavirus cases in last 24 hours, 21 Omicron cases detected so far. Source: PTI
COVID-19 Cases in India: India recorded 8,306 new coronavirus cases in the last 24 hours, as per the data from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) on Monday. According to the data, India's active caseload currently stands at 98,416.
Though the active case load was lowest in 552 days, Omicron, a new variant of SARS-CoV-2, has caught the attention of the government as the World Health Organisation (WHO) has termed it as a variant of concern.
Here are the major developments related to Omicron in varoius states on Monday:
8.45 PM: According to a PTI report, the Delhi government is closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation arisen out of the Omicron variant. Quoting Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain, the report said there is no possibility of lockdown in the national capital.
The minister said that Delhi government authorities are "testing all people coming from the countries affected by the Omicron variant", and cautioned that this variant is far more transmissible than the Delta variant, adding the situation is being "closely monitored".
The city government has already put in place a "graded response action plan", and it will be implemented accordingly, as and when the cases and positivity rate rise, the minister added.
So far, a total of 27 people have been sent to LNJP Hospital, out of which 17 were found Covid-positive, and only one person has been confirmed to have been inflected with Omicron variant, and investigation is on to trace others, if any.
The rest 10 people, who tested negative are those who came into close contact of people found Covid positive.
8.35 PM: Maharashtra government has slashed the price of a Covid-19 RT-PCR test. If a person visits a laboratory for giving samples, the cost of the test has come down to Rs 350 from the earlier Rs 500. In case, the samples are collected from home, the revised cost is Rs 700 against the earlier price of Rs 800 per test.
8.00 PM: According to a PTI report, the Government of Tamil Nadu has set up special wards in public sector hospitals and enhanced surveillance and testing to tackle the challenge of Omicron. The variant has not been detected in the state so far.
Out of the 5,858 people who arrived in Tamil Nadu in the past about one week, including 5,249 from 11 high risk countries, six were found to be infected with the Delta plus variant.
For re-confirmation, the samples of these six people have been sent to the Bengaluru based Institute for Stem Cell Science and Regenerative Medicine (inStem) and results are awaited, the report added.
According to the government, Tamil Nadu has achieved a vaccination coverage of 80.44 per cent as regards the first dose and 47.46 in respect of the second.
7.50 PM: According to a PTI report, the Maharashtra government has said that it is closely monitoring the prevailing coronavirus situation and any decision on reimposing restrictions in the state will be taken only after seeking the Centre's guidance and Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray's views, State Health Minister Rajesh Tope said.
7.42 PM: According to news agency ANI, two more cases of Omicron variant of coronavirus were reported in Maharashtra. Quoting Maharashtra government, a tweet by ANI said a 37-year-old South Africa returnee man and his 36-year-old US returnee friend, have been confirmed with the infection taking the total number of the cases to 10 in the state.
6.15 PM: According to a PTI report, the third wave of coronavirus could hit the peak by February with cases likely to be reaching up to 1-1.5 lakh a day due to Omicron, the new variant of SARS-CoV2. However, as per Manindra Agarwal, IIT scientist involved in the mathematical projection of trajectory of COVID-19, it will be milder than the second wave.
"With the new variant, our current forecast is that the country could see the third wave by February but it will be milder than the second wave. So far we have seen that the severity of Omicron is not like the one seen in the Delta variant," Agarwal told PTI.
He, however, said a close eye is being kept on cases in South Africa where many cases of this variant have been recorded. Agarwal added that as of now South Africa has not seen a rise in hospitalisation.
He further said a fresh set of data on the virus and hospitalisations would help in getting a more solid picture.
"It looks like although the new variant has shown high transmissibility, its severity is not like the one seen in the Delta variant," Agarwal told PTI.
He said as observed during the spread of delta, a mild lockdown (night curfew, restrictions on crowding) can bring down beta substantially. That will significantly reduce the peak value, he added.
The Department of Science and Technology (DST) backed Sutra-model had earlier said the third wave of coronavirus could hit the country by October if a new variant, more virulent and transmissible than the Delta, emerges.
However, till November end, there was no new variant. It had then revised its forecast to November.
5.35 PM: According to an IANS report, 246 samples of returnees from at-risk countries in Odisha were sent to the Institute of Life Sciences (ILS), Bhubaneswar for genome sequencing.
Quoting sources, the IANS report said that over 800 persons returned to the state from foreign countries since the detection of the Omicron variant of Covid-19.
"We have received 246 samples of the foreign returnees from different districts for genome sequencing to ascertain the presence of Omicron variant. All these persons were found Covid positive during the RT-PCR test. The results will be known in the next two or three days," Ajay Parida, Director, ILS said.
Earlier, genome sequencing of 141 samples of foreign returnees was conducted. However, fortunately, not a single sample was found to be an Omicron variant, he added.
As per protocol, Parida said, another round of RT-PCR test of the samples will be conducted before carrying out the genome sequencing. The samples whose CT value is less than 28 will be picked for genome sequencing, he said.
Odisha Health Minister Naba Kishore Das said there is no need to panic and the state government is monitoring the situation closely. "The WHO is conducting a study on the new variant and very soon the effectiveness of our vaccines against the variant will be known," Das said.
Meanwhile, health department officials informed that about 320 returnees, nearly 40 per cent of the total arrivals, are untraceable. As these returnees have submitted wrong addresses and contact information in the Air Suvidha portal, the government is unable to trace them, the officials said.
Public Health Director Niranjan Mishra said: "Information provided by the Centre on foreign returnees is being shared with the district administrations and accordingly, testing and tracing are being conducted."
He appealed to the people who have returned from at-risk countries to undergo RT-PCR test for the safety and well-being of their families.
4.52 PM: As per a PTI report, amid the scare from the Omicron variant of COVID-19, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar on Monday said there is need to take a decision at the national level on whether a booster dose of the vaccine is required to curb the pandemic.
Speaking after paying tribute to legendary social reformer Babasaheb Ambedkar at Chaityabhoomi in Dadar here, he said information available showed that those who had taken both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine had also got infected with the Omicron variant.
"Is booster dose required then? We have doses available today. There is a need to take a decision at the national level in this regard I think. There are different opinions about it. So, it should be told why it needs to be given or why it shouldn't. Only experts who have researched it (the infection) can talk about it," Pawar said.
Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and the state administration are keeping a close tab on the current situation, the senior NCP leader said.
"The Centre too should take a strict position on patients coming from abroad in various states. It must be ensured rules are observed strictly at our international airports, he added.
4.48 PM: According to a PTI report, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday urged people not to panic in the wake of detection of Omicron variant of COVID-19 in Delhi, but asked them to follow social distancing and use face masks to ward off the disease. The situation emerging after the detection of corona variant was being monitored closely by him, and adequate arrangement of all the requirements like beds and medicines will be made available, the chief minister said in a briefing.
" Omicron has entered the country and its cases have been found at many places including Delhi. I want to appeal the people not to panic and maintain social distancing and use face mask," he said.
Delhi reported first case of Omicron on Sunday. A 37-year-old fully vaccinated man who arrived in Delhi from Tanzania was tested positive for Omicron.
Kejriwal has demanded the Central government to stop international flights to prevent the spread of Omicron in the country.
The country reported the first two cases of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 on Thursday in Karnataka -- a 66-year-old South African flyer and a 46-year-old Bengaluru doctor with no travel history. Both men were fully vaccinated.
All COVID-positive international travellers reaching Delhi are being admitted to the LNJP Hospital, where a dedicated ward has been set up for isolating and treating them.
4.35 PM: As per a PTI report, Union Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia has directed Delhi airport operator DIAL to implement better crowd management strategies after passengers complained of chaos and crowding at its terminal following the implementation of new coronavirus-related travel guidelines.
Quoting senior government officials, the PTI report said that minister called a meeting on Monday with officials of the Airports Authority of India, Bureau of Immigration and GMR group-led Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL).
Officials of Genestrings Diagnostics, the sole laboratory that does RT-PCR testing at the Delhi airport, were also present at the meeting.
At the meeting, the minister directed the DIAL to implement better crowd management strategies, officials noted.
Amid concerns over the Omicron variant of coronavirus, the Centre had issued a revised guideline for international travellers which came into effect on December 1.
Commenting on a tweet about the situation at the Delhi airport after the new travel rules kicked in, Congress MP Karti Chidambaram had said on Saturday: "As I feared and warned. Total confusion and crowding in airports."
Sharing pictures of long queues at the Delhi airport, another Twitter user had said on Friday, "Taxes paid, airport charges paid. Huge rush but available resources are not being utilised. For one hour of flight approx three hours need to be spent in queue for processes to be completed."
The DIAL had said on Saturday that 20 dedicated counters have been set up for the passengers arriving from "at-risk" countries and having pre-booked their mandatory COVID-19 test.
According to the Union Health Ministry's guidelines issued on November 30, all passengers coming from "at-risk" countries have to compulsorily undergo RT-PCR test and two per cent of passengers arriving from other countries would also have to take the test on a random basis.
The passengers will have to wait for the results before leaving the airport or taking a connecting flight, according to the guidelines.
Countries in Europe, including the UK, and South Africa, Brazil, Botswana, China, Zimbabwe, Mauritius, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore and Israel have been placed in the "at-risk" category by the Union Health Ministry.
At the Delhi airport, rapid PCR test costs a passenger Rs 3,500 but the results come in 60-90 minutes. RT-PCR costs a passenger Rs 500 and the results come in around six hours. A passenger coming from an "at-risk" country can choose either of the tests at the Delhi airport.
3.15 PM: As per an earlier ANI report, the central government has made RT-PCR mandatory for all travellers from "at-risk" countries. As for the travellers from other countries, five per cent of incoming passengers will be tested for COVID-19 on arrival. Those found positive will have to undergo the COVID-19 treatment protocol.
2.09 PM: The number of people suspected to have been infected with the Omicron Covid variant in Delhi has increased to 27, of which 17 of them have tested positive for the virus, Health Minister Satyendar Jain informed IANS on Monday.
"A total of 27 Omicron suspects coming through various flights from abroad are currently admitted in the Lok Nayak Jai Prakash (LNJP) Hospital," he said, adding that out of the total suspects, 17 have tested positive for Covid and the remaining 10 are their contacts.
"All have been admitted in the LNJP hospital... It is our endeavor to prevent the spread of Omicron in any way from international arrivals landing at airport."
Talking about the preventive measures, Jain underlined the mandatory use of masks and to maintain Covid appropriate behaviour in an effort to prevent the third wave of the pandemic.
"Our graded response action plan is ready, as the cases increase or the positivity increases, we will implement it," Jain said while urging people to take the second dose of vaccines if they are due.
The capital city has reported one Omicron case so far. The infected person had travelled from Tanzania. However, 17 cases of the variant were detected across the nation on Sunday alone, which increased the overall total to 21 in India since the outbreak of Omicron was first reported in South Africa.
Jain emphasized on the need to stop the flights coming from abroad, adding that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has appealed to the Centre to do so. The same negligence was seen during the second wave, he added.
1.55 PM: As per a PTI report, with fresh COVID concerns, Karnataka Chief Minister Basvaraj Bommai on Monday said the government is closely monitoring the situation in the state and will take decisions on enforcing further containment measures after consulting the experts.
In the wake of two cases of the new Omicron variant of coronavirus being detected in the state, and fresh COVID clusters emerging, the Karnataka government on Friday had announced certain preventive measures that included compulsory two dose vaccination for entering malls, cinema halls or theatres, and for parents of school or college going students.
"All the advices will be placed before the expert committee, depending on the Omicron and Delta variants spread in the coming days and clusters that are emerging, we will get the opinion of the experts, and take an appropriate decision," Bommai said in response to a question on suggestions regarding imposing restrictions on entry to malls and cinema halls to 50 per cent capacity.
Speaking to reporters in Hubballi, in response to a question, he said, all the primary and secondary contacts of the Bengaluru doctor who has tested positive for Omicron have been identified, all of them are asymptomatic, genomic sequencing reports of couple of his contacts who have tested positive for COVID is awaited.
Earlier in the day, noting that clusters were emerging in Karnataka, especially in hostels and among students, the Chief Minister speaking to reporters in Bidar said, the government has given guidelines for cluster management.
"In Chikkamagaluru yesterday, a cluster has emerged (at a residential school), all students have been checked, their primary and secondary contacts have also been tested and it (school) has been sealed down. We are providing treatment to those infected," he said, adding that the government is prepared in every way, and is gathering timely information from experts regarding the spread and effects of the infection, and accordingly preparations are on to provide treatment.
At least 69 people, mostly students of Jawahar Navodaya School at Seegodu in Chikkamagaluru district have been infected by Covid-19, official sources said.
Meanwhile, speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, Health Minister K Sudhakar in response to a question, downplayed the threats of the possible third wave of COVID-19.
"If you see historically during any pandemics, usually the second wave will be of large scale, third wave are generally less, this is the historical evidence. Historically, the second wave is more intense than the first wave, and in case there is a third or fourth wave, its intensity will be less and it will die out," he said.
He also said that according to experts, the effects of the virus on children are very low, and it was seen even during the delta variant also.
Further, noting that the genomic sequencing reports of couple of contacts of the city Doctor tested for Omicron is still awaited, the Minister said, "once it comes, it will be made know, reports of two are awaited, but they don't have any symptoms, they are undergoing treatment at Bowring Hospital here, and there are no issues. All his contacts had taken two doses of vaccination."
Stating that there is no need to worry more regarding the Omicron variant, Sudhakar said, we have faced the more virulent Delta variant, compared to it the new variant is only fast in its spread, but does not seem to be intense, so far.
"No need to worry, but precaution is necessary with vaccination and other required measures," he said, adding that "more than 93 per cent people have taken the first dose, while 64 per cent have taken the second dose in the state. We are third among large states in the country. We have to strive to complete the vaccination by December-end. There is over 70 lakh vaccine stock with us."
12.37 PM: As per a PTI report, With COVID-19 cases rising among students in various schools and colleges, Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister B C Nagesh said the government will not backtrack from stopping exams and schools if situation arises, as per PTI. He, however, maintained that the experts were of the opinion that there was no problem in holding regular off-line classes.
"We will not backtrack if a need arises to stop exams and schools. However, in the present situation, all the experts are of the opinion that there is no problem," Nagesh told reporters here.
The minister said the government was closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation on an hourly basis. He added that the government will make alternative arrangements with a view to avoid any problem.
"If required we will stop exams. However, the Standard Operating Procedure is maintained very strictly in the exams because we make sitting arrangements maintaining physical distance," Nagesh said.
The Minister asked people not to panic as it will impact the academic activities of children. "There is no need for people to panic because this year we started regular schools after a year of lockdown. In case schools are shut again then it will be difficult to bring back children to the classes," Nagesh said.
He, however, assured parents that the education department will take stringent measures in case it is felt that the COVID-19 situation is going to impact children's health. The statement came amid rising COVID cases emerging among students. A large number of students and staff of a medical college in Hubballi-Dharwad tested positive for COVID-19. The pandemic clusters emerged among students of residential schools in Bengaluru rural, Mysuru and Chikkamagaluru. Sources said there was a protest by students in an autonomous college in Bengaluru on Monday morning following reports about COVID-19 outbreak in the students' hostel.
11.04 AM: As per an IANS report, the Karnataka health department is awaiting the genome sequencing test results of five persons who came in contact with a doctor infected with the Omicron Covid variant. The results are expected to arrive on Monday. The state is also seeking the approval of the Centre to conduct genome sequencing tests in four additional labs for quicker results. The doctor had tested positive for Covid-19 on November 22 and his sample was sent for genome sequencing two days later. On December 2, the Central government announced that the doctor was infected with the Omicron variant, sending the Karnataka health department into jitters. The authorities have tracked the doctor`s 13 primary and 205 secondary contacts and tested them. His wife, daughter, two of his colleagues and another have tested positive for Covid-19 and their swab samples have been sent for genome sequencing. All of them are being treated at a designated hospital. The health condition of these persons, including the doctor, is normal and all of them have recovered from symptoms and are doing well. The state government has brought in strict measures after detection of the country`s first two Omicron cases in Bengaluru. The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has already issued a circular following the government`s instructions regarding a mandatory two-dose vaccination for entry into shopping complexes, malls, cinema halls, theatres. The management of commercial establishments are being given the task of screening customers before entry. BBMP marshals and health officials have been directed to conduct checks without intimation. The BBMP has also warned of slapping cases under the Disaster Management Act 2005 and other legal provisions, if there were any violations. On the other hand, the government has decided to go aggressively on vaccination front in the state. As per the latest figures of the Union government`s Co-Win Dashboard till 7 a.m. on Monday, more than 7.33 crore vaccines have been administered.
A minimum of 30 samples are sent everyday for genome sequencing to keep a tab on the spread of the Omicron variant in the state. Presently, only two labs in the state -- National Centre for Biological Sciences (NCBS) and NIMHANS -- have approval from the Indian SARS-CoV-2 Genomics Consortium (INSACOG) to conduct genome sequencing. Considering the inflow of international travellers and samples collected from the community, the burden will be more on conducting Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS). The state government has already procured equipment for four labs at Hassan, Belagavi, Mysuru and Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical College in Bengaluru and is awaiting the approval of INSACOG. The equipment has already been installed and staff is also trained. Apart from this, the state is also seeking the Centre`s nod to recognise test results of private hospital labs where the facility is available. As per the present rule, the state cannot send samples for WGS to private labs.
