Can I select a specific data center in Japan to deploy to? Can I specifically select TOK4? Japan has three datacenters: TOK02, 04, 05
If the customer can not select, can I know which data center WKC deploy to? : TOK02, 04, 05
Watson Knowledge Catalog is deployed in the Tokyo MZR that spans the three data centers. You cannot select a specific data center.
To access WKC deployed in Tokyo data center, use the following link:

I'm using HERE Traffic API to get incident data, specifically data about accidents, for Cape Town.
Here is the link I'm using:
https://traffic.ls.hereapi.com/traffic/6.3/incidents.json?&apiKey=MY_API_KEY&bbox=-33.424531,18.208220;-34.398377,19.106580&type=Accident
which always yields a result such as:
{"TIMESTAMP": "08/26/2020 17:36:23 GMT", "VERSION": 2.4, "TIMESTAMP2": "2020-08-26T17:36:23.000+0000", "EXTENDED_COUNTRY_CODE": "NA"} - no accident is reported.
If I don't filter by the type of incident, i.e. using the link:
https://traffic.ls.hereapi.com/traffic/6.3/incidents.json?&apiKey=MY_API_KEY&bbox=-33.424531,18.208220;-34.398377,19.106580
I get data on other types of incidents and the "EXTENDED_COUNTRY_CODE" appears as D0 - as it should since it is the market code for South Africa (as per https://developer.here.com/documentation/traffic/dev_guide/topics/coverage-information.html).
Does the extended country code appear as NA when I filter by accident because HERE is not providing data on accidents for Cape Town? I've been able to filter the type of incident for other parts of the world so I guess there is no problem in how I am defining the link.
Many thanks in advance.
HERE does publish the accident data in South Africa. We also checked the data history internally, we do publish accident data for Cape Town.
I think when you get NA, mostly because there is no active accident at that time.
So far, we don't see any active accident event that has been missed but if you are aware of an active accident we missed please don't hesitate to let us know.
I am trying to scrape and parse the following RSS feed http://www.nestle.com/_handlers/rss.ashx?q=068f9d6282034061936dbe150c72d197. I have no problem to extract the basic items that I need (e.g., title, description, pubDate) using the following code:
library(RCurl)
library(XML)
xml.url <- "http://www.nestle.com/_handlers/rss.ashx?q=068f9d6282034061936dbe150c72d197"
script <- getURL(xml.url)
doc <- xmlParse(script)
titles <- xpathSApply(doc,'//item/title',xmlValue)
descriptions <- xpathSApply(doc,'//item/description',xmlValue)
pubdates <- xpathSApply(doc,'//item/pubDate',xmlValue)
My problem is that the output for item "description" includes not only the actual text but also a lot of style formatting expressions. For example, the first element is:
descriptions[1]
[1] "<p><iframe height=\"322\" src=\"https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/fhESDXnlMa0?rel=0\" frameBorder=\"0\" width=\"572\"></iframe><br />\n<br />\n<p><em>Nescafé</em> is partnering with Facebook to launch an immersive video, pioneering new technology just released for the platform.</p>\n<p>\nThe <em>Nescafé</em> <a class=\"externalLink\" title=\"Opens in a new window: Nescafé on Facebook\" href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Nescafe/videos/vb.203900255471/10156233581755472/?type=2&theater\" target=\"_blank\">‘Good Morning World’ video</a> stars people in kitchens across the world, performing the hit song ‘Don’t Worry’ using spoons, cups, forks and a jar of coffee.

I can think of a regex approach to replace the unwanted character strings. However, is there a way to access the plain text elements of item "description" directly through xpath?
Any help with this issue, is very much appreciated. Thank you.
You can do:
descriptions <- sapply(descriptions, function(x) {
xmlValue(xmlRoot(htmlParse(x)))
}, USE.NAMES=FALSE)
which gives (via cat(stringr::str_wrap(descriptions[[1]], 70)):
In a move that will provide young Europeans increased access to
jobs and training opportunities, Nestlé and the Alliance for YOUth
have joined the European Pact for Youth as founding members. Seven
million people in Europe under the age of 25 are still inactive -
neither in employment, education or training. The European Pact for
Youth, created by European CSR business network CSR Europe and the
European Commission, aims to work together with businesses, youth
organisations, education providers and other stakeholders to reduce
skills gaps and increase youth employability. As part of the Pact, the
Alliance for YOUth will focus on setting up âdual learningâ schemes
across Europe, combining formal education with apprenticeships and on-
the-job training to help match skills with jobs on the market. The
Alliance for YOUth is a group of almost 200 companies mobilised by
Nestlé to help young people in Europe find work. It has pledged to
create 100,000 employability opportunities by 2017 and has already met
half of this target in its first year. Luis Cantarell, Executive Vice
President for Nestlé and co-initiator of the European Pact for Youth,
said: âPromoting a cultural shift to dual learning schemes based on
business-education collaboration is at the heart of Nestléâs youth
employment initiative since its start in 2013. The European Pact for
Youth will help to build a skilled workforce and will tackle youth
unemployment.â Learn more about the European Pact for Youth and read
their press release.
There are \n characters at various points in the resultant text (in almost all the descriptions) but you can gsub those away.
Thanks to all in advance for their help and input.
I have a growing business where I work with small university sports teams in lining up hotel accommodations when they play at other universities. Using Access 2010, I have one data table for hotels and a corresponding form where I can input and update hotel information. Then I have another data table where I track proximity to universities by hotel. So, for example, if I have a team playing in St. Louis, I might have one hotel with close proximity to UM St. Louis, Missouri Baptist, and Washington University.
My goal is to be able to input multiple universities and their corresponding distance from hotel on my hotel input form and obviously have my proximity table updated with the input. I've created the relationship in the form to link the two tables together, created multiple combo boxes with the intent of inputting more than one can only input one university at present.
Can someone suggest a methodology for achieving this? Thank you once again for the assistance.
I can't find a two letter country abbreviation for Somaliland, likely because it's not a country, but rather, as Wikipedia puts it: "an unrecognized self-declared de facto sovereign state that is internationally recognized as an autonomous region of Somalia". Nevertheless, it still takes up space on a map.
This may not seem like a programming question, but it is. I'm using the jvectormap jQuery plugin, which accounts for this region and has assigned it the abbreviation "_3" in lieu of a two letter abbreviation. The problem is that in order to make jvector map function correctly with my code, I need to enter Somaliland into our database but I don't want to use "_3" as its abbreviation, and I also don't want to just make something up.
First and foremost, is there an official two letter abbreviation for Somaliland?
As trivial and petty as this problem may sound, it's created a paradox in my mind and is causing my brain to melt. How can this be handled "correctly" if an official abbreviation does not exist?
The two-letter country code for Somalia is SO. ISO added it to ISO 3166 after it received the "UN notification of full name" in July 2013. See Somalia in ISO's Online Browsing Platform.
In the Country Codes Collection, SO has a green colour code for "Officially assigned code elements".
The ISO country codes collection does not have an entry for Somaliland. The Wikipedia article ISO 3166-2:SO (i.e. Somalia's country code) states - without citing a source -
The autonomous regions of Somaliland and Puntland (the former of which claims independence but is not recognized by any nation) each span several regions and have no separate codes.
Based on the ISO registry, this appears to be correct. jVectorMap gives Somaliland the code XS; in the ISO registry defines, two-letter codes starting with X are "User-assigned code elements". Using XS for Somaliland appears to be safe in the context of jVectorMap, but there is no guarantee that other libraries or programs will use the same two-letter code.
Somaliland is not listed by the Nations Online Project either.
After visiting Somaliland, the journalist Joshua Keating, writing in The Guardian of 20 July 2018:
(...), according to the US Department of State, the United Nations, the African Union and every other government on Earth, I was not in Somaliland, a poor but stable and mostly functional country on the Horn of Africa. I was in Somalia.
(...)
As Somalilanders will often remind you, it was, in the past, an independent country, fully recognised by the international community, including the UN. But this halcyon period lasted less than a week. On 26 June 1960, the former Protectorate of Somaliland became fully independent from British rule, its independence recognised by 35 countries around the world, including the US. The next day, its new legislature passed a law approving a union with the south. On 1 July, Somalia became independent from Italy, and the two were joined together. It is a decision Somaliland has regretted almost ever since.

I am using ActiveReports with ASP.NET but I think answer for any similar reporting component will do.
I have two resultset to merge and show in a single report, like:
Table 1:
Name Job Start End
Jack Some service 1992 1997
Jack Some Sales Exp 1998 2007
Jane Some programming 2000 2003
Table 2:
Name Training
Jack Shiny French Certificate
Jane Crappy database certificate
Jane Some courses in management
And the report should look like:
Jack
Job History:
Some Corp, 1992-1997
Some Sales Exp, 1998-2007
Training History:
Shiny French Certificate
Jane
Job History:
Some programming, 2000-2003
Training History:
Crappy database certificate
Some courses in management
How should I merge the two tables and how should I design the layout to achieve the report in the given example?
Update:
As you may notice, I am not trying to do this with a single select. I have two datatables as source and I can merge them by hand to get a single data source. I am trying to use grouping but I need two kind of groups for each employee. One for the jobs, and one for the trainings. How can I use groups or sub-reports feature to bind this kind of data (and how should I process the data if necessary)?
Use subreports... Create a main report that will have two subreports. One subreport for job history and one subreport for training history. The main report will need a query that will return a list of people. Then for each Person in the detail of the main report, set a parameter on each of the child subreports that will refine the query in those two to list the Job History or Training History for only the current person being displayed in the parent report.
A detailed walkthrough that explains how to do this step by step is on the Data Dynamics website here. Some overview information is also here
In general you cannot do it in a single SELECT statement. Most reporting tools offer some kind of "subreports" or "inner sections" that run on a different SQL question and have some parameters passed from the main report. You could use two subreports and one master report.
You should select this two tables with "left-join", create a "GroupHeader/Footer" section in report and set "DataField" on "GroupHeader" section to field, which should be used as grouping.
Look at the samples from ActiveReports, they surely has a sample for grouping.
