World Time Buddy (WTB) is a convenient world clock, a time zone converter, and an online meeting scheduler. It's one of the best online productivity tools for those often finding themselves traveling, in flights, in online meetings or just calling friends and family abroad.
Carefully thought out design lets it effortlessly compare multiple time zones at a glance, plan conference calls, webinars, international phone calls and web meetings. It also aids with business travel & tracking of market hours.
The currency converter uses ECB reference exchange rates (source dataset "EXR") and all exchange rates provided by Bloomberg (source dataset "FX"). ECB reference exchange rates take precedence over Bloomberg rates.
The ECB reference rates, which are exchange rates against the euro, are updated every day at around 16:00. The Bloomberg rates are collected at the end of the day and updated overnight. The exchange rates for discontinued currencies, such as the currencies replaced by the euro, are for the latest dates on which they were each available.
DEEC-Tec is a new kind of marine energy technology that distinguishes itself through the use of many small DEECs that are assembled to form DEEC-Tec metamaterials. These metamaterials, in turn, are used to create overall larger structures for the harvesting and conversion of marine energy, like one developed by NREL (now patented).
Technology Level 1: An individual DEEC is often no more than a few centimeters long and acts as both energy transducer and structural mechanism. As an energy transducer, a DEEC leverages at least one physical phenomenon to convert external sources of energy into electricity. As a structural mechanism, an individual DEEC houses or is part of the energy transducer and also enables interconnection with other DEECs.
Technology Level 2: DEEC-Tec metamaterials are aggregations and integrations of many DEECs. DEEC-Tec metamaterials are the general building blocks for a structure that can harness and convert marine renewable energy. DEEC-Tec metamaterials could include combinations of DEEC types, combined in different ways (such as layers, latices, or embedded in substrates).
Technology Level 3: A DEEC-Tec-based ocean wave energy converter is an example of an energy harnessing/converting structure made of DEEC-Tec metamaterials. DEEC-Tec-based wave energy converters have two defining characteristics:
NREL has extensive experience in developing materials for both FMDEC structures and embedded distributed energy converters. This experience, to name of few, leverages techniques ranging from upcycling of used polymers to the development of novel new elastomer electrodes.
NREL is familiar with and has the experience necessary for the co-design of DEEC-Tec-based ocean wave energy converters. Inherent in their nature, DEEC-Tec-based converters require the co-design and concurrent engineering of, at minimum:
NREL develops the evaluation tools (e.g., technology performance-level assessments and numerical modeling tools) needed to characterize and assess DEEC-Tec concepts, aiming for a greater understanding and appreciation of the technology's optimal and realistic possibilities.
NREL develops the evaluation tools (e.g., technology performance-level assessments and numerical modeling tools) needed to characterize and assess DEEC-Tec concepts, aiming toward a greater understanding and appreciation of the technology's possibilities:
Challenges associated with the DEEC-Tec domain include proper material(s) design for fatigue minimization, optimal geometry composition, and power conversion efficiencies as well as individual transducer unit design and embedment configurations.
With the broad scope of design options (e.g., co-designing for the development of DEEC-Tec geometry, transducer arrangements, and active control strategies), there are many reasons to be optimistic about resolving these DEEC-Tec challenges.

The California Air Resources Board, with assistance from aftermarket catalytic converter manufacturers, has been developing a database to store and retrieve information on aftermarket catalytic converters that have been approved for use in California. These catalytic converters comply with the new regulations that became effective January 1, 2009. The database is currently under construction and contains some of the catalytic converters approved for OBD II vehicles. Once finalized, it will also include catalytic converters for non-OBD II vehicles.
To access Executive Orders that are not shown in the database, please view the complete list of approved catalytic converters under the new regulations. Also, to access Executive Orders for only pre-OBD II vehicles under the new regulations please view the Pre-OBD II EO Listing.
For information on Executive Orders issued under the old regulations, view the summary list. All Executive Orders on this summary list are void and no longer in force and effect. The catalytic converters they cover cannot be sold in California effective December 31, 2008. Likewise, the used catalytic converters they covered cannot be sold in California effective July 10, 2008.
Please note that the database and lists are applicable to passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and medium-duty vehicles only. Executive Orders for motorcycle aftermarket catalytic converters can be viewed in the Motorcycle Aftermarket Parts Page.
Prevost could not do what we do without our dedicated, talented, and visionary partners. They take a barebones structure and craft it into the motorhome of your dreams. Today, we stand strong with five of the elite converter companies to provide you the best coach imaginable. Prevost and our premier converter partners, Marathon Coach, Liberty Coach, Emerald Luxury Coaches, Millennium Coach, and Featherlite Coach have set the standard for opulence, comfort, and quality in the motorhome industry. While they each have their own unique business, vision, style and design, they all fall under the Prevost motorhome umbrella and can truly be called The Ultimate Motorhome.

There are two ways of registering a command. The first one is by using Bot.command() decorator,as seen in the example above. The second is using the command() decorator followed byBot.add_command() on the instance.
When you want to handle parsing of the argument yourself or do not feel like you want to wrap multi-word user input intoquotes, you can ask the library to give you the rest as a single argument. We do this by using a keyword-only argument,seen below:
Unlike the other basic converters, the bool converter is treated slightly different. Instead of casting directly to the bool type, which would result in any non-empty argument returning True, it instead evaluates the argument as True or False based on its given content:
For this, the library provides the Converter interface. This allows you to have access to theContext and have the callable be asynchronous. Defining a custom converter using this interface requiresoverriding a single method, Converter.convert().
When this command is executed, it attempts to convert the string given into a Member and then passes it as aparameter for the function. This works by checking if the string is a mention, an ID, a nickname, a username + discriminator,or just a regular username. The default set of converters have been written to be as easy to use as possible.
The command extension also has support for certain converters to allow for more advanced and intricate use cases that gobeyond the generic linear parsing. These converters allow you to introduce some more relaxed and dynamic grammar to yourcommands in an easy to use manner.
The what parameter would either take a discord.TextChannel converter or a discord.Member converter.The way this works is through a left-to-right order. It first attempts to convert the input to adiscord.TextChannel, and if it fails it tries to convert it to a discord.Member. If all converters fail,then a special error is raised, BadUnionArgument.
