Jose Mourinho refused to pay more than £50m for Harry Maguire - and it cost Man Utd £20m
Jose Mourinho was desperate to sign a centre back in the last transfer window of his tenure as Man Utd boss but baulked at paying £50m for then Leicester star Harry Maguire
by Simon Mullock, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/simon-mullock/Jose Mourinho told Manchester United NOT to pay more than £50million for Harry Maguire – and ended up costing the Reds a cool £20million.
Maguire, 26, became the world’s most expensive defender last summer when he moved to Old Trafford from Leicester in a deal worth £80million.
But United had first registered their interest in the centre-back 12 months earlier when Mourinho had put him on his wish-list – and was lined up to make the switch for £60million.
United, however, backed out of talks with the Foxes when Mourinho told club bosses that paying a penny more than £50million would “embarrass him.”
A club insider said: “A move was made for Maguire in the summer of 2018 – with Jose Mourinho’s blessing.
“But Jose’s interest in signing the player came with a proviso. He said that while Maguire was an excellent player, he wasn’t worth more than £50million.
“In fact, he said paying more than £50million would embarrass him.
“The club was armed with that valuation when they spoke to Leicester – who immediately made it clear they would not sell Maguire for less than £60million.
“The deal was dead before United had even made a formal bid – and when it was decided to move for Maguire again a year later, his price had gone up to £80million.”
Mourinho was sacked four months into the season - still complaining that Unite had failed to land his top transfer targets.
It was Leicester’s refusal to budge on the price that prompted Manchester City to drop their interest in Sheffield-born Maguire.
His form since arriving at United has mirrored that of the team, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men struggling for consistency.
But Solskjaer has still seen enough of his record recruit to make him captain in the absence of club skipper Ashley Young.

--- Day 6: Universal Orbit Map ---
You've landed at the Universal Orbit Map facility on Mercury. Because navigation in space often involves transferring between orbits, the orbit maps here are useful for finding efficient routes between, for example, you and Santa. You download a map of the local orbits (your puzzle input).
Except for the universal Center of Mass (COM
), every object in space is in orbit around exactly one other object.
An orbit looks roughly like this:
\
\
|
|
AAA--> o o <--BBB
|
|
/
/
In this diagram, the object BBB
is in orbit around AAA
. The path that
BBB
takes around AAA
(drawn with lines) is only partly shown. In the map data,
this orbital relationship is written AAA)BBB
, which means "BBB
is in orbit around
AAA
".
Before you use your map data to plot a course, you need to make sure it wasn't corrupted during the download. To verify maps, the Universal Orbit Map facility uses orbit count checksums - the total number of direct orbits (like the one shown above) and indirect orbits.
Whenever A
orbits B
and B
orbits C
, then A
indirectly orbits C
. This chain can be any number of objects long: if A
orbits B
, B
orbits C
, and C
orbits D
, then
A
indirectly orbits D
.
For example, suppose you have the following map:
COM)B
B)C
C)D
D)E
E)F
B)G
G)H
D)I
E)J
J)K
K)L
Visually, the above map of orbits looks like this:
G - H J - K - L
/ /
COM - B - C - D - E - F
\
I
In this visual representation, when two objects are connected by a line, the one on the right directly orbits the one on the left.
Here, we can count the total number of orbits as follows:
D
directly orbitsC
and indirectly orbitsB
andCOM
, a total of3
orbits.L
directly orbitsK
and indirectly orbitsJ
,E
,D
,C
,B
, andCOM
, a total of7
orbits.COM
orbits nothing.
The total number of direct and indirect orbits in this example is 42
.
What is the total number of direct and indirect orbits in your map data?

Apache Commons FileUpload Security VulnerabilitiesThis page lists all security vulnerabilities fixed in released versions of Apache Commons FileUpload. Each vulnerability is given a security impact rating by the development team - please note that this rating may vary from platform to platform. We also list the versions of Commons FileUpload the flaw is known to affect, and where a flaw has not been verified list the version with a question mark. Please note that binary patches are never provided. If you need to apply a source code patch, use the building instructions for the Commons FileUpload version that you are using. If you need help on building Commons FileUpload or other help on following the instructions to mitigate the known vulnerabilities listed here, please send your questions to the public Commons Users mailing list. If you have encountered an unlisted security vulnerability or other unexpected behaviour that has security impact, or if the descriptions here are incomplete, please report them privately to the Apache Security Team. Thank you. For information about reporting or asking questions about security problems, please see the security page of the Apache Commons project. Notes on Apache Commons FileUpload 1.3.3Regarding potential security problems with the class called DiskFileItem, it is true, that this class exists, and can be serialized/deserialized in FileUpload versions, up to, and including 1.3.2. It is also true, that a malicious attacker can abuse this possibility to create abitraryly located files (assuming the required permissions) with arbitrary contents, if he gets the opportunity to provide specially crafted data, which is being deserialized by a Java application, which has either of the above versions of Commons FileUpload in the classpath, and which puts no limitations on the classes being deserialized. That being said, we (the Apache Commons team) hold the view, that the actual problem is not the DiskFileItem class, but the "if" in the previous sentence. A Java application should carefully consider, which classes can be deserialized. A typical approach would be, for example, to provide a blacklist, or whitelist of packages, and/or classes, which may, or may not be deserialized. On the other hand, we acknowledge, that the likelyhood of application container vendors taking such a simple security measure is extremely low. So, in order to support the Commons Fileupload users, we have decided to choose a different approach: Beginning with 1.3.3, the class DiskFileItem is still implementing the interface java.io.Serializable. In other words, it still declares itself as serializable, and deserializable to the JVM. In practice, however, an attempt to deserialize an instance of DiskFileItem will trigger an Exception. In the unlikely case, that your application depends on the deserialization of DiskFileItems, you can revert to the previous behaviour by setting the system property "org.apache.commons.fileupload.disk.DiskFileItem.serializable" to "true". Fixed in Apache Commons FileUpload 1.3.2Low: Denial of Service CVE-2016-3092 Specially crafted input can trigger a DoS (slow uploads), if the size of the MIME boundary is close to the size of the buffer in MultipartStream. This is also fixed for Apache Tomcat. This was fixed in revisions 1743480.

Meghan Markle 'horrified' by Prince Andrew's Jeffrey Epstein interview: sources
by Natalie O'NeillMeghan Markle was “horrified” by parts of Prince Andrew’s disastrous BBC interview, according to a report Friday.
The Duchess of Sussex was disturbed by the way the 59-year-old duke denied having sex with Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged teenage victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre, sources told The Telegraph.
Markle — who works with a charity to support female sexual abuse survivors — felt “uncomfortable” when Prince Andrew said he would remember sleeping with the then-17-year-old girl because sex, for a guy, is a “positive act,” according to the outlet.
PRINCE ANDREW'S JEFFREY EPSTEIN INTERVIEW SLAMMED AS TOTAL DISASTER BY VIEWERS, MEDIA
The paper, which doesn’t directly quote any sources, adds that Markle’s team was also put off by the response.
During the BBC interview, reporter Emily Maitlis asked Prince Andrew if he had ever had sex with Giuffre or “any young woman trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein.”
 You have to take some sort of positive action and so therefore if you try to forget it’s very difficult to try and forget a positive action and I do not remember anything.”
PRINCE ANDREW TO 'STEP BACK' FROM PUBLIC DUTIES OVER JEFFREY EPSTEIN RELATIONSHIP
Earlier this week, the Duke was kicked out of his offices at Buckingham Palace over the “car crash” of an interview.

REVIEW: Babe: Pig in the City By Luke Buckmaster<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Cast: Magda Szubanski, James Cromwell, Mary Stein, Mickey Rooney, and the voices of E.G. Daily, Gleanne Headly, Steven Wright, James Cosmo, Stanley Ralph Ross, Danny Mann, Roscoe Lee Browne Director: George Miller Screenplay: George Miller, Mark Lamprell, Judy Morris based on "The Sheep-Pig" by Dick King-Smith
Australian theatrical release date: December 10, 1998
On the Buckmaster scale of 0 stars (bomb), to 5 stars (a masterpiece): 2 stars
The fundamental difference between 1995's surprise hit Babe and its sequel, Pig in the City, is a change of tone. Whilst Babe happily indulged in occasional "serious" moments, Pig in the City often surrounds itself in gloom, and its characters are forced to attempt to emerge themselves through it. That's quite a hard feat for a family film to achieve without presenting its characters as equally somber as their surroundings. Achieving this much is something that director George Miller (Mad Max, The Witches of Eastwick) can be proud of, at least for the most part.
Miller adapted Babe from the novel written by Dick King-Smith (titled The Sheep Pig), and does the same task for Pig in the City as well as replacing director Chris Noonan. He gives an unusual atmosphere to the film, which is largely to do with the setting - "The Big City." This is one unusual place, with Venice like canals and a wide range of sights to see - the Sydney opera house, the statue of liberty, the Eiffel tower and the Hollywood sign. Miller conveys that this fairytale city is not located anywhere, so much as it is everywhere.
Pig in the City's story caps off directly after Babe's finishes. Farmer Hoggett (James Cromwell, who was Oscar nominated for his performance in the original) and Babe (voice of E.G. Daily, replacing Christine Cavanaugh) are local celebrities for their astonishing display in the National Sheep Dog's Championship. But unfortunately Hoggett takes a bad fall down a well, thus making him unable to work. The farm soon faces financial ruin, so Mrs. Hoggett (Magda Szubanski) plans to take Babe to a state fair in search for enough money to save their home. They end up stranded in The Big City, and stay at an eerie hotel for pets.
Pig in the City is an ill-advised sequel. Babe ended on a wonderfully high note, pleasing audiences with scenes that were both artistic and entertaining. It was a rewarding tale brought to life largely from Cromwell's performance and Babe's innocence. Although the pig's innocence is still very much a part of the sequel, Cromwell is severely missed. He was the sane center of the original; everyone acted crazy around him.
There is some truth behind the many allegations that Pig in the City is too depressing and gloomy for children. Some scenes - namely Farmer Hoggett falling down the well and Babe saving animals from gruesome deaths - are distressing to watch. Although the underlining themes of the film include friendship, determination and courage, it is only an uplifting experience on very few occasions. Pig in the City is exhausting when it should be uplifting, and annoying when it should be entertaining.
This is not to say that George Miller has not crafted some excellent moments and characters. Thelonius (voice of James Cosmo) is an old and wise orangutan who always likes to be dressed for the moment. He is easily the most intriguing character, as every one of his movements and words are emphasized by Miller, and the audience subsequently takes notice. Thelonius is one of the few animals that gives a lasting impact, and is able to burst out of his gloomy surroundings to create an intriguing demeanor of his own.
Adults will appreciate the atmosphere that Miller creates more than children will. But as a family film, a sequel, and a candidate for this holiday's box office trophy, Babe: Pig in the City simply doesn't bring home the bacon.

Euro 2020 draw: What you need to know
The Euro 2020 draw takes place on Saturday from 17:00 GMT in Bucharest - live on BBC Two - with England and Wales waiting to discover their opponents.
Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland will also be watching with interest - with all three sides playing in the play-offs next March.
But the unique nature of this tournament - with the qualified countries of the 12 host cities having to be placed in specific groups - means some things have already been decided.
England know which group they will be in - while there are only two options for Wales.
So what do we know - and why? What are the best and worst-case scenarios for the British nations? And how can you follow it?
Who could the home nations face?
England already know they will be in Group D because Wembley is hosting three games in that group. The winners of Scotland's Euro 2020 play-offs (Path C) will also be in the group.
The Three Lions and Scotland could end up in a group with world champions France and European champions Portugal, because they are among the second and third seeds respectively.
Seeding is based on positions and then points in the qualifying groups, rather than world rankings.
But a kinder draw would see them in with Poland and the Czech Republic, ranked 21st and 43rd in the world respectively. England met the Czechs in qualifying, winning 5-0 at Wembley but losing 2-1 in Prague.
England will host all three of their group games, with Scotland at Hampden Park in their other two games if they qualify. Steve Clarke's side need to get past Israel at home on 26 March and then Norway or Serbia away five days later to qualify.
That means England will not know all their opponents until 31 March. Statisticians Gracenote give Scotland a 19% chance of qualifying, with Norway most likely to progress at 40%.
There are only two groups Wales could be in - A or B.
Group B, which has already been finalised apart from Wales or Finland, would see Ryan Giggs' side in with Belgium, Russia and Denmark.
They beat the first two of those on their way to the Euro 2016 semi-finals and lost twice to Denmark in last year's Nations League.
If they are in Group A - Italy's group - they could end up with the Azzurri, France and Portugal - or Italy, Poland and the Czech Republic.
Simon Gleave, head of sports analysis at Gracenote, says: "There is probably not much difference between A and B for Wales pre-draw. If either the Czech Republic or Austria ended up in Group A though, Wales would not be the outsiders to progress."
The other home nation still keeping a close eye on the draw are Northern Ireland. They are in the March play-offs, away to Bosnia-Herzegovina in the semi-finals and at home to the Republic of Ireland or Slovakia in the final - if they beat the Bosnians first.
The winners of those play-offs will be in Group E with Spain. Two of their group games will be in Dublin, with the game against Spain in Bilbao.
The most difficult group for Northern Ireland (or the Republic) would see them in with Spain, France and Portugal. The easiest according to the world rankings would be Spain, Poland and the Czech Republic.
Gracenote say Northern Ireland have a 21% chance, with a 16% chance for the Republic of Ireland. Bosnia are clear favourites, with a 39% probability of winning.
How do the other groups look?
Ukraine and the Netherlands are in Group C, while Germany do not know any of their opponents in Group F yet.
These two groups are linked because Bucharest hosts half the Group C games, with three Group F fixtures in Budapest. But Romania and Hungary are both in the Path A play-offs - so only one can qualify.
If Romania win the play-offs, they will go into Group C with Ukraine and the Netherlands - and the Path D side will be in Group F. If Iceland, Bulgaria or Hungary win Path A they will go into Group F with Germany, with the Path D winner going into Group C.
So what are we actually waiting to know?
With the play-off winners not being decided until 31 March, only 11 teams are waiting to find out which group they will be in.
There are four groups France, Poland, Switzerland and Croatia could be placed in - and five possibilities for third seeds Portugal, Turkey, Austria, Sweden and the Czech Republic.
Then Wales and Finland will be in Group A or B.
The draw starts with teams from Pot 1 (ie the top seeds) - although we already know which group each of them will be placed in.
To determine the position of the team in the group - eg A1, A2, A3 or A4 - a ball is drawn from a bowl. This decides the order of who plays when in the group. England's three games are on Sunday, 14 June, Friday, 19 June and Tuesday, 23 June - but they do not yet know when the potential Scotland game would be.
The draw continues with Pot 2, 3 and 4 to decide which group they are in, and then which position of that group they take. That means Wales will not discover their group until nearly the end of the draw.
Why do we know this much already?
So much has already been decided because any hosts who qualify need to be placed in the group that their home games are in. So England and Scotland (if they qualify) have been destined to play in the same group since a random draw on 7 December 2017 - likewise Spain and the Republic of Ireland.
Because four of the top seeds are hosts, their groups are set in stone - so there were only two groups left that the other two top seeds could go in. But Ukraine are not allowed to be in a group with Russia for political reasons (although they could meet in the knockouts) so it means there was only one group they could go in, leaving Belgium in the other.
And with the four play-off winners needing to go in specific groups (even though two of them may be swapped around) it means there are only two possible groups that Wales and Finland - also bottom seeds as the two teams to qualify with the fewest points - can be placed in.
How can I follow the draw?
The draw will be shown live on BBC Two and on the BBC Sport website, alongside a live text commentary, from 17:00 until 18:30 GMT.
Mark Chapman will be presenting with former Wales boss Mark Hughes, ex-England defender Micah Richards and French football journalist Julien Laurens.
The uninterrupted feed of the draw will be available on the BBC Red Button and BBC Sport website.
You can also listen to the draw during Sports Report on BBC Radio 5 Live.
Where are the games?
England benefit from hosting all their group games, as well as the semi-finals and final - so it is possible to map out where all their games would be in the tournament. There is one last-16 tie at Wembley, although Gareth Southgate's side could not play in that one.
The top two teams from each group go through to the last 16, along with the four best third-placed teams. That means only eight teams actually go out in the group stages.
Wales will face at least one trip to Azerbaijan or Russia - with their two possible groups being hosted in Rome-Baku or Copenhagen-St Petersburg.

--- title: Template Callback keywords: fastai sidebar: home_sidebar summary: "Callbacks for templates" description: "Callbacks for templates" nb_path: "nbs/15_template_callback.ipynb" ---
The TemplateCallback
class is used by the Environment
to interface with a Template
during training.
Templates serve two roles during training - filtering and scoring of samples
Templates filter all samples added to the Buffer
and sampled during each batch. If the argument prefilter=True
is passed to the template callback, the template will remove all samples that fail the template's hard filters. If prefilter=False
is passed, Template.validate
will be used to remove invalid compounds, but will ignore compounds that violate the hard filters
If the Template has any soft filters, those filters will be used to score compounds each batch. The aggregate soft filter score will be multiplied by TemplateCallback.weight
and added to the total reward
The ContrastiveTemplate
class applies a template to tasks based around comparing input and output compounds (ie making relative improvements to a compound's properties).
During filtering, the contrastive template will keep samples where both input and output compounds pass the filters.
Contrastive templates also use a similarity function to impose a similarity constraint on sample pairs (ie output compound must have a similarity of X to the input compound).
One consideration in using contrastive scores is how to properly scale contrastive scores. If we have a score with a maximum value of 1
, a contrastive sample pair where the score goes from 0.8
to 1
should get the same reward as a sample pair where the score goes from 0.6
to 1
. In both cases, the model maximized the output score to the greatest extent possible. To do this, we can scale the reward differences by the maximum possible reward different (ie reward = (output_reward - input_reward)/(max_reward - input_reward)
). Passing a value to max_score
will cause the contrastive template to perform this scaling.

I move between VS and XCode a bit without shuddering or fussing, which seems to make me a strange creature. In general, shocking as it is to say on a Cocoa list, VS is actually a much more powerful environment. Most who love XCode have little used VS (at least VS2005 or later, VS.NET is clunky IMO). But learning what actually is better about VS requires using XCode for quite some time. Most of the initial complaints are simply small differences between the two; many of which I prefer the XCode way. But then, XCode is a Mac app, and I generally prefer Mac UI.
- Much deeper integration with its debugger. XCode and gdb play together, but they're not integrated the way VS is with its debugger. There are many important gdb features that can't easily be reached from XCode, and some (debugging with a core file) that you pretty much can't run XCode at all if you want to accomplish.
- The multi-tab interface makes it much easier to manage moving between many files, and the debugger is better integrated with the editor. XCode encourages you to have an explosion of windows, and the debugger is inconsistently integrated with the editor. The AllInOne interface for XCode goes too far the other way and makes moving between files a real pain.
- Mouse-over gives much better information in VS when editing. VS is always compiling your code, and so can give you access to information in the editor that is only available in the debugger for XCode. XCode technically also is always compiling your code (or it claims to), but it doesn't really make use of this fact.
- VS is better in nearly every conceivable way if you're programming in C++. XCode hates C++. If you use wstrings in C++, XCode will actually come out of the computer and slap you around (who knows, maybe it should). I dream of being able to easily display wstrings in the debugger. Yes, I've built the formatting plugins and from time to time they even work. Probably the biggest missing feature in XCode is good code completion for C++, especially with overloads, which VS does very well.
All that said, I still much prefer to work in XCode, but mostly because I prefer coding in Cocoa to .NET (.NET is actually pretty nice, but Cocoa is nicer). Apple’s help documentation for Cocoa is far superior to Microsoft’s documentation for .NET (which is infuriating to work with), and getting to the help in XCode is much more effective than in VS.
So to VS guys I say: Give XCode a chance. It’s better than you think once you are used to Mac interfaces and if you’re working on Cocoa apps (which XCode is highly optimized for). To XCode guys I say: until you’ve used VS for a while, don’t assume that XCode has all the features it should. In the programming editor world, XCode is still kind of primitive.

You ever heard of having a bullet with your name on it? That's what this trope is about.
Bob has just betrayed Alice and left her for dead, or maybe he's murdered Alice's whole family, or maybe Alice just really wants Bob to die, so much so that she'll throw in a bit of Poetic Justice and designate a special bullet to be used, just for Bob.
This trope is about getting revenge, but it's not enough to simply get revenge. This is a special case. So special that not just any old bullet will do. No, the bullet Alice uses (or even the gun she uses) must be related to the reason Bob must die. Bonus points if the bullet has Bob's name inscribed on it. It's not uncommon for Alice to craft the bullet from special materials as well.
Subtrope of It's Personal.
Examples:
- In the first issue of the Secret Six miniseries, Deadshot promises Lady Vic that he will save a bullet so that when he does shoot her "it will be like no time has passed at all." Four years later, in the penultimate arc of the ongoing series, Deadshot shoots Lady Vic despite running out of ammo earlier in the issue, indicating that he had been saving the bullet the whole time and didn't use it to save his own life.
- Lethal Weapon: Riggs tells his new partner Murtaugh that he has a special bullet picked out in case he ever decides to kill himself (which he thinks about every day). At the end of the film, he gives Murtaugh the bullet as a symbol that he's come to terms with his inner demons and is no longer suicidal. The bullet is stated to be a hollow-point, to minimize the odds of botching the jobnote .
- The Patriot: Benjamin Martin melts down some lead soldiers that belonged to his dead son Thomas in order to make bullets when he starts fighting against the British. The final one of these is dedicated to Colonel Tavington, the Evil Brit who murdered said son. It doesn't do the job.
- Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl: Jack Sparrow, left marooned with a pistol and single shot to be used for suicide, somehow escaped that island and saved the bullet for Barbossa, whom he didn't see again for over ten years. It ends up killing the desired target... though he gets better in a sequel, long story.
- In Run For The Sun a writer (Richard Widmark) keeps a rifle cartridge as a lucky piece. During WW II an enemy soldier had him at gunpoint but the gun misfired. He took out the soldier and kept the bullet because it "... had his name on it." He finds another use for it In a much copied scene he pushes the cartridge though a bullet hole in a door and then fires it by hitting the primer with a nail and a rock. It goes off and kills his enemy on the other side of the door.
 The coin in this case was the first thing Shaw demanded that Magneto move with his powers when he was a young boy; because he couldn't, Shaw killed his mother.
- Iron Man opens with Tony Stark caught in an ambush by well-armed terrorists.  Turns out his name was on the shell in more ways than one, as The Starscream in Tony's corporation paid the terrorists with Stark Industries weaponry to kill Tony Stark.
- In The Anubis Gates, Jacky is out to avenge Dog-Face Joe's murder of Colin Lepovre by shooting Joe with the same gun that killed Colin.
- In The Hobbit, Bard hadn't been planning on avenging his people, but when the dragon re-awakes, he has his go-to weapon:
Bard: Arrow! Black arrow! I have saved you to the last. You have never failed me and always I have recovered you. I had you from my father and he from of old. If ever you came from the forges of the true king under the Mountain, go now and speed well!
- In Mysterious Island, the heroes are attacked by pirates, and Herbert is non-fatally shot. His companions remove the bullet and, when planning a counter-attack, promise to fire it back at the pirates.
- In the Septimus Heap series, there is a magical significance to a named bullet, and sooner or later it will always find its target. The catch, as one assassin finds out, is that this doesn't necessarily mean the target will be shot with it.
- The way the bullet is named is important too. If the bullet was named "I.P.", nothing stops it from killing Iona Potts (aka Alice Nettles) instead of the Infant Princess.
- On Life, Charlie is shot, and when he recovers he asks for the remains of the bullet taken out of him. He then melts it down and molds it into another bullet, and shoots the man who shot him.
- Parodied in Blackadder Goes Forth: Baldrick carves his name into a bullet, because he insists that in every war there's a bullet with your name on it, and if he owns the bullet with his name on it, he won't get shot.
- In Eugene O'Neill's play The Emperor Jones, the tyrant Brutus Jones flees into the forest but is convinced that he is Nigh-Invulnerable and can only be killed by a special silver bullet that he possesses.
- A lesser example, bandits in Borderlands sometimes shout "I've bin saving one for ya!" in a firefight.
- In one of Fallen London's Exceptional Stories, the Severe Bluejacket has a bullet saved for his traitorous First Mate. But he's too busy being the Almost Dead Guy to use it anymore, so he sends you to deal with him, and gives you the bullet as a memento when you report back.
- The Fallout: New Vegas Gun Runner's Arsenal Add-on adds an achievement called 'Talk about owned', which requires you to kill Benny with Maria, the customized pistol he shoots you with at the beginning of the game. There's also a mod which gives you the opportunity to craft a bullet to use on him, created from the bullet dug from your own head.
- Half-Life 2: Episode One has an achievement named "One Free Bullet" where Gordon must fire only one bullet for the entire campaign, which occurs immediately after getting his first guns when he must shoot off a padlock to proceed.
- In Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, near the beginning of the game, Ocelot's gun jams when he tries to shoot Snake, giving Snake the opportunity to dispatch his entire squad. Ocelot keeps the bullet that jammed his gun, though if he gets the chance to use it at the end of the game, it turns out to have been a blank all along.
- StarCraft II: Jim kept a single round in his revolver for Mengsk. In a subversion, when he really needs it to save Kerrigan he doesn't even hesitate in using it on Tychus, showing that he has abandoned his pursuit of self-destructive revenge.
- In Mortal Kombat X, Erron Black's X-Ray has him fire a bullet with the opponent character's name (or Ugly Mofo for Predator) on it that ravages the opponent's insides.
- Sluggy Freelance: Bun-bun once remarks that "it would be wrong to plug Santa with bullets that didn't have the name 'Lard-Butt' inscribed on 'em!" Yes, he tries to kill Santa Claus, every year for the first several years of the comic. He's a bad bunny.
- Percy from Critical Role has a designated gun - the List, which is marked with the names of the five people he blames for the deaths of his family.
- A North Korean soldier has saved a bullet which he failed to fire during The Korean War. Even in his old age, he's hoping he'll finally get to fire it at the Americans one day.

[gecode-users] Passing user defined values to initialise IntActivity

Hi Kish,
The activity thing is easy enough, just cast Space to whatever you want. See
Section 8.7 in MPG how to do it!
Yes, AFC cannot be initialized for the very reason you mention!

Subject: [gecode-users] Passing user defined values to initialise
IntActivity
Hi,
I am trying to implement the initialisation of the starting values for the
activity of the variables in a search. From reading the MPG, I am doing this
when the IntActivity is declared:
IntActivity act(*solver, vars, decay, merit)
where merit is a IntBranchMerit function.
I have implemented setting the initial value for the activity of a variable
to its degree. However, I also want to allow the user to specify the initial
values for the variables, in cases where they may have some idea of which
variables are "better", and I am not sure how this can be done, i.e. how I
can pass user defined values to a IntBranchMerit function:
(..IntBranchMerit)(const Space &home, IntVar x, int i)
what I would like to pass to this function is an array that defines the
initial values (array[i] would give the value intended for x (i.e.
vars[i])).
A possible issue I had with declaring the IntBranchMerit function is that I
had to use Space, rather than GecodeSpace, which is the class I
defined:
class GecodeSpace : public Gecode::MinimizeSpace {....}
i.e., I had to declare merit as:
double merit(const Space& solver, IntVar x, int i)
This probably reflects my (lack of) C++ knowledge...
if I do have to use Space, then I cannot even pass a user specified field
via GecodeSpace to merit function -- and I am not sure if this is the right
thing to do anyway, as the data I want to pass is for a specific search,
rather than something global to the space itself.
On a somewhat related note: it seems to make sense to me to allow the user
to set the initial values for the AFC of each variable, because the degree
may not always be the best initial value. Am I correct that this is
difficult to do, as the AFC value for each variable is computed from summing
the AFC values for the constraints involving that variable?
Thanks in advance for any information/help!
Kish

AllRightsReserved's MEET PROJECT Spotlights Artist Yu Nagaba in Upcoming Exhibition
A thematic presentation inspired by the mythological Greek goddess, Venus.
by Keith EstilerFollowing MEET PROJECT’s collaboration with Verdy, AllRightsReserved’s art-focused initiative now enlists acclaimed Japanese artist Yu Nagaba for its ongoing pop-up exhibition series. Nagaba is recognized for his minimalist black-and-white illustrations of human subjects across the genres of hip-hop, fashion, as well as the skate community.
The thematic presentation titled “MEET YU NAGABA GALLERY – I’M YOUR VENUS” marks Nagaba’s first overseas show. The artist will unveil his first-ever sculpture that draws inspiration from the mythological Greek goddess, Venus. Moreover, he will display a total of 25 Venus-themed artworks that portray unique female personas gleaned from his favorite movies, artists, and celebrities.
Additionally, Nagoya’s figurative pieces under his ACE HOTEL series will go on display. The concept behind these drawings stemmed from when the artist stayed at the ACE Hotel in New York. He drew a simple illustration on the hotel’s complimentary memo paper and the installment grew from there. “The original idea was to create a fictional story of an imaginary tourist at the hotel, they then become simple yet chic sketches that pay tribute to beloved classic movie scenes,” as per a press statement.
Conclusively, collaborative editions and merchandise will be up for grabs at the temporal exhibition.  Prices range from $275 HKD to $1,560 HKD (approx. $35 USD to $199 USD). The show will run from December 6-10 at the address in Hong Kong below.

Here we again consider the effect of uniformly accelerating reference frames. If a particle is observed in an inertial reference frame, which we will denote with a prime, Newton's third law applies
$$
\begin{equation}
m\frac{d^2\boldsymbol{r}'}{dt^2}=\boldsymbol{F}.
\tag{1}
\end{equation}
$$
Now, if we have a second coordinate system,
$$
\begin{equation}
\boldsymbol{r}=\boldsymbol{r}'-\boldsymbol{r}_0,~~~~\boldsymbol{r_0}=\frac{1}{2}\boldsymbol{a}_0t^2.
\tag{2}
\end{equation}
$$
We would see that
$$
\begin{equation}
m\frac{d^2\boldsymbol{r}}{dt^2}=\boldsymbol{F}-m\boldsymbol{a}_0.
\tag{3}
\end{equation}
$$
Here \( \boldsymbol{a}_0 \) is the acceleration of the coordinate system. The last term acts like an additional apparent force. In fact, it acts like a contribution to the gravitational force which alters the acceleration of gravity by \( \delta\boldsymbol{g}=-\boldsymbol{a}_0 \).
If you are on Earth's surface and if your reference frame is fixed with the surface, this is an example of an accelerating frame, where the acceleration is \( \omega^2 r_{\perp} \), where \( r_{\perp}\equiv\sqrt{x^2+y^2} \), and \( \omega \) is the angular velocity of Earth's rotation. The acceleration is inward toward the axis of rotation, so the additional contribution to the apparent acceleration of gravity is outward in the \( x-y \) plane. In contrast the usual \( \boldsymbol{g} \) is radially inward pointing toward the origin.
In the rotating coordinate system (not an inertial frame), motion is determined by the apparent force and one can define effective potentials. In addition to the normal gravitational potential energy, there is a contribution to the effective potential,
$$
\begin{equation}
\delta U_{\rm eff}=-\frac{m}{2}\omega^2r_\perp^2=-\frac{m}{2}r^2\omega^2\sin^2\theta,
\tag{4}
\end{equation}
$$
where \( \theta \) is the polar angle, measured from the north pole. If the true gravitational force can be considered as originating from a point in Earth's center, the net effective potential for a mass \( m \) near Earth's surface could be
$$
\begin{equation}
U_{\rm eff}=mgh-m\frac{1}{2}\omega^2(R+h)^2\sin^2\theta.
\tag{5}
\end{equation}
$$
As an example, let us ask ourselves how much wider is Earth at the equator than the north-south distance between the poles assuming that the gravitational field above the surface can be approximated by that of a point mass at Earth's center.
The surface of the ocean must be at constant effective potential for a sample mass \( m \). This means that if \( h \) now refers to the height of the water
$$
m g[h(\theta=\pi/2)-h(\theta=0)]=\frac{m}{2}\omega^2(R+h)^2.
$$
Because \( R>>h \), one can approximate \( R+h\rightarrow R \) on the right-hand side, thus
$$
h(\theta=\pi)-h(\theta=0)=\frac{\omega^2R^2}{2g}.
$$
This come out a bit less than 11 km, or a difference of near 22 km for the diameter of the Earth in the equatorial plane compared to a diameter between the poles. In reality, the difference is approximately 41 km. The discrepancy comes from the assumption that the true gravitational force can be treated as if it came from a point at Earth's center. This would be true if the distribution of mass was radially symmetric. However, Earth's center is molten and the rotation distorts the mass distribution. Remarkably this effect nearly doubles the elliptic distortion of Earth's shape. Due to this distortion, the top of Mount Everest is not the furthest point from the center of the Earth. That belongs to the top of a volcano, Chimborazo, in Equador, which is one degree in latitude below the Equator. Chimborazo is about 8500 ft lower than Everest when measured relative to sea level, but is 7700 feet further from the center of the Earth.
Consider some vector \( \boldsymbol{A} \) according to an observer in a frame rotating about the \( z \) axis with angular velocity \( \boldsymbol{\omega}=\omega\hat{z} \). To an observer in the laboratory frame (the primed frame) the vector will change even if the vector appears fixed to the rotating observer. For a rotation of \( \Delta\theta=\omega\Delta t \), the change of the vector due to the rotation is
$$
\begin{eqnarray}
\Delta\boldsymbol{A}'=\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{A}\Delta t.
\end{eqnarray}
$$
If one includes the fact that \( A \), the vector measured in the rotating frame, might be changing as a function of time,
$$
\begin{eqnarray}
\Delta\boldsymbol{A}'&=&\Delta\boldsymbol{A}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{A}\Delta t,\\
\nonumber
\frac{d}{dt}\boldsymbol{A}'&=&\frac{d}{dt}\boldsymbol{A}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{A}.
\end{eqnarray}
$$
If the vector happens to be the position \( \boldsymbol{r} \),
$$
\begin{eqnarray}
\dot{\boldsymbol{r}}'&=&\boldsymbol{v}'=\boldsymbol{v}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r}.
\end{eqnarray}
$$
Here, the first term on the r.h.s. corresponds to the vector \( \boldsymbol{r} \) not being fixed, but changing with time, \( \dot{\boldsymbol{r}}=\boldsymbol{v} \). One can now use \( \boldsymbol{v}'=\boldsymbol{v}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r} \) in place of \( \boldsymbol{A} \), and see
$$
\begin{eqnarray}
\dot{\boldsymbol{v}}'&=&\frac{d}{dt}(\boldsymbol{v}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r})+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times(\boldsymbol{v}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r})\\
\nonumber
&=&\dot{\boldsymbol{v}}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\dot{\boldsymbol{r}}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\left(\boldsymbol{v}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r}\right)\\
\nonumber
&=&\dot{\boldsymbol{v}}+2\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{v}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times(\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r}).
\end{eqnarray}
$$
Because \( \dot{\boldsymbol{v}}' \) is \( \boldsymbol{F}/m \),
$$
\begin{eqnarray}
\tag{6}
\boldsymbol{F}&=&m\left\{\boldsymbol{a}+2\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{v}+\boldsymbol{\omega}\times(\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r})\right\},\\
\nonumber
m\boldsymbol{a}&=&\boldsymbol{F}-2m\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{v}-m\boldsymbol{\omega}\times(\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r}).
\end{eqnarray}
$$
The extra terms on the right behave like additional forces. Like gravitational forces, they are proportional to the mass, so the mass cancels for many problems.
The last term, \( -m\boldsymbol{\omega}\times(\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r}) \), represents the centrifugal force. Using the vector identity, \( \boldsymbol{A}\times(\boldsymbol{B}\times\boldsymbol{C})=\boldsymbol{B}(\boldsymbol{A}\cdot{\boldsymbol{C}})-\boldsymbol{C}(\boldsymbol{A}\cdot\boldsymbol{B}) \),
$$
\begin{equation}
-\boldsymbol{\omega}\times(\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r})=\omega^2\boldsymbol{r}+(\omega\cdot\boldsymbol{r})\boldsymbol{\omega}.
\tag{7}
\end{equation}
$$
If \( \boldsymbol{\omega} \) is in the \( z \) direction,
$$
\begin{equation}
-\boldsymbol{\omega}\times(\boldsymbol{\omega}\times\boldsymbol{r})=\omega^2(x\hat{x}+y\hat{y}).
\tag{8}
\end{equation}
$$
The centrifugal force points outward in the \( x-y \) plane, and its magnitude is \( m\omega^2r_{\rm\perp} \), where \( r_{\rm\perp}=\sqrt{x^2+y^2} \).
The second term is Eq. (6) represents the Coriolis force. It does not enter problems like the shape of the Earth above because in that case the water was not moving relative to the rotating frame. Once an object is moving in a rotating frame, the particle is no longer being described in a single accelerating frame because at each point the acceleration is \( -\omega^2\boldsymbol{r} \).
A ball is dropped from a height $h=500$m above Minneapolis. Due to the Coriolis force, it is deflected by an amount \( \delta x \) and \( \delta y \). Find the deflection. Ignore the centrifugal terms.
The equations of motion are:
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\frac{dv_x}{dt}&=&-2(\omega_yv_z-\omega_zv_y),\\
\frac{dv_y}{dt}&=&-2(\omega_zv_x-\omega_xv_z),\\
\frac{dv_z}{dt}&=&-g-2(\omega_xv_y-\omega_yv_x),\\
\omega_z&=&\omega\cos\theta,~~~\omega_y=\omega\sin\theta,~~~\omega_x=0.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
Here the coordinate system is \( \hat{x} \) points east, \( \hat{y} \) points north and \( \hat{z} \) points upward.
One can now ignore all the Coriolis terms on the right-hand sides except for those with \( v_z \). The other terms will all be doubly small. One can also throw out terms with \( \omega_x \). This gives
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\frac{dv_x}{dt}&\approx& -2\omega v_z\sin\theta,\\
\frac{dv_y}{dt}&\approx& 0,\\
\frac{dv_z}{dt}&\approx& -g.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
There will be no significant deflection in the \( y \) direction, \( \delta y=0 \), but in the \( x \) direction one can substitute \( v_z=-gt \) above,
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
v_x&\approx&\int_0^t dt'~2\omega gt'\sin\theta=\omega gt^2\sin\theta,\\
\delta x&\approx& \int_0^t dt'~v_x(t')=\frac{g\omega\sin\theta t^3}{3}.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
One can find the deflections by using \( h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2 \), to find the time, and using the all-knowing internet to see that the latitude of Minneapolis is \( 44.6^\circ \) or \( \theta=45.4^\circ \).
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
t&=&\sqrt{2h/g}=10.1~{\rm s},\\
\omega&=&\frac{2\pi}{3600\cdot 24~{\rm s}}=7.27\times 10^{-5}~{\rm s}^{-1},\\
\delta x&=&17.4~{\rm cm}~~{\rm(east)}.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
The Foucault Pendulum is simply a regular pendulum moving in both horizontal directions, and with the Coriolis force included. In this case,
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
m\ddot{\boldsymbol{r}}&=&\boldsymbol{T}+m\boldsymbol{g}-2m\boldsymbol{\Omega}\times\boldsymbol{v},
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
as the centrifugal force term is absorbed into the definition of \( \boldsymbol{g} \). The magnitude of the tension, \( \boldsymbol{T} \), is considered constant because we consider only small oscillations. Then \( T\approx mg \), and the components, using \( \hat{x},\hat{y} \) to correspond to east and north respectively, are
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
T_x=-mgx/L,~~~T_y=-mgy/L.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
If \( \Omega \) is the rotation of the earth, and if \( \theta \) is the polar angle, $\pi-$lattitude,
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\ddot{x}&=&-gx/L+2\dot{y}\Omega_z,\\
\ddot{y}&=&-gy/L-2\dot{x}\Omega_z.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
Here we have used the fact that the oscillations are sufficiently small so we can ignore \( v_z \). Using \( \omega_0\equiv\sqrt{k/m} \),
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\ddot{x}-2\Omega_z\dot{y}+\omega_0^2x&=&0\\
\ddot{y}+2\Omega_z\dot{x}+\omega_0^2y&=&0,
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
where \( \Omega_z=|\boldsymbol{\Omega}|\cos\theta \), with \( \theta \) being the polar angle (zero at the north pole). The terms linear in time derivatives are what make life difficult. This will be solved with a trick. We will incorporate both differential equations into a single complex equation where the first/second are the real/imaginary parts.
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\eta\equiv x+iy,\\
\ddot{\eta}+2i\Omega_z\dot{\eta}+\omega_0^2\eta&=&0.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
Now, we guess at a form for the solutions, \( \eta(t)=e^{-i\alpha t} \), which turns the differential equation into
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
-\alpha^2+2\Omega_z\alpha+\omega_0^2&=&0,\\
\alpha&=&\Omega_z\pm \sqrt{\Omega_z^2+\omega_0^2},\\
&\approx&\Omega_z\pm \omega_0.
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
The solution with two arbitrary constants is then
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\eta&=&e^{-i\Omega_zt}\left[C_1e^{i\omega_0t}+C_2e^{-i\omega_0t}\right].
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
Here, \( C_1 \) and \( C_2 \) are complex, so they actually represent four arbitrary numbers. These four numbers should be fixed by the four initial conditions, i.e. \( x(t=0), \dot{x}(t=0), y(t=0) \) and \( \dot{y}(t=0) \). With some lengthy algebra, one can rewrite the expression as
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\tag{9}
\eta&=&e^{-i\Omega_zt}\left[A\cos(\omega_0t+\phi_A)+iB\cos(\omega_0t+\phi_B)\right].
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
Here, the four coefficients are represented by the two real arbitrary real amplitudes, \( A \) and \( B \), and two arbitrary phases, \( \phi_A \) and \( \phi_B \). For an initial condition where \( y=0 \) at \( t=0 \), one can see that \( B=0 \). This then gives
$$
\begin{eqnarray*}
\eta(t)&=&Ae^{-i\Omega_zt}\cos(\omega_0t+\gamma)\\
\nonumber
&=&A\cos\Omega_zt\cos(\omega_0t+\gamma)+iA\sin\Omega_zt\cos(\omega_0t+\gamma).
\end{eqnarray*}
$$
Translating into \( x \) and \( y \),
$$
\begin{eqnarray}
x&=&A\cos\Omega_zt\cos(\omega_0t+\gamma),\\
\nonumber
y&=&A\sin\Omega_zt\cos(\omega_0t+\gamma).
\end{eqnarray}
$$
Assuming the pendulum's frequency is much higher than Earth's rotational frequency, \( \omega_0>>\Omega_z \), one can see that the plane of the pendulum simply precesses with angular velocity \( \Omega_z \). This means that in this limit the pendulum oscillates only in the \( x \)-direction with frequency many times before the phase \( \Omega_zt \) becomes noticeable. Eventually, when \( \Omega_zt=\pi/2 \), the motion is along the \( y \)-direction. If you were at the north pole, the motion would switch from the \( x \)-direction to the \( y \) direction every 6 hours. Away from the north pole, \( \Omega_z\ne|\boldsymbol{\Omega}| \) and the precession frequency is less. At the equator it does not precess at all. If one were to repeat for the solutions where \( A=0 \) and \( B\ne 0 \) in Eq. (9), one would look at motions that started in the \( y \)-direction, then precessed toward the \( -x \) direction. Linear combinations of the two sets of solutions give pendulum motions that resemble ellipses rather than simple back-and-forth motion.

When presented with a number of options to begin the first exploration on drugs, I asked my wife who worked in psychiatric ERs for about a decade now, which one would she pick? After I read the options, she immediately said without hesitation: "Ketamine!". OK then. Ketamine it is.
Browsing the site Erowid.org came accross interesting accounts from folks who used this "sedative" drug which is known to have been used in the past as a "tranquilizer for horses". This image from Wikipedia refers to the veterinary-related aspect of this drug:
The experiences under the influence of Ketamine have some common characteristics:
Some people report the experience as feeling dead in the body ("I 100% believed I was dead"), and unpleasant overall, whereas other people report relief from anxiety ("I find stressful topics to be approachable with slow logical thoughts and conversation."), relaxation ("The most important take away was the simple relaxation to let things go. Let it ALL go."). Or even feeling like after going through the vibration or the k-hole effect one is reborn: "I am weeping. My nose is streaming. I have been reborn." (All of the references are from Ketamine on Erowid.org )
Ketamine blocks the NMBDA receptor. "NMDA receptors are proteins that control electrical impulses in the brain. Their functions are critical for judgment, perception of reality, human interaction, the formation and retrieval of memory and the control of unconscious activities (such as breathing, swallowing, etc.), also known as autonomic functions." See: TMC News It must be because of these reasons that Ketamine is also known as a "party drug", which could be a euphemism for a "date-rape" drug.
Close reading does not allow for the broad statistical view that one gets from the information on the Visualizing Erowid site. Distant reading is an apparatus much more suitable for "context setting" than close reading is. For example, the gender distribution of the authors who have contributed to the Erowid database, the bigram counts of other drugs that are mentioned in close proximty to Ketamine (Nitrous Oxide, Dance Floor, and White Powder respectively) are not obviously available at close reading. The visualizations also open up questions questions pregnant for further investigation. For example, it would be intresting to further investigate the spikes in use of Ketamine between 2000-2014 as shown in the "Total Occurances per Substance" graphic. Overall Ketamine dosages --if my interpretation is accurate-- above the median dosages for other drugs. One would need to investigate the relationship between dosage and weight of users to find out the effective dosage and dosages above "normal". It seems like users often take Ketamine in combination with other drugs.
I think that it would be important to record the location of users as there might be some correlation between the usage of certain drugs and their availability in certain regions. Politics, geographic proximity, or additional factors to be explored, could play a role in explaining regional differences in usage.

Satan Attacks Job's Health
1 Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.
2 And the LORD said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Satan answered the LORD and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.”
3 And the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you incited me against him to destroy him without reason.”
4 Then Satan an swered the LORD and said, “Skin for skin!  Curse God and die.”
10 But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
Job's Three Friends
11 Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. They made an appointment together to come to show him sympathy and comfort him.
12 And when they saw him from a distance, they did not recognize him. And they raised their voices and wept, and they tore their robes and sprinkled dust on their heads toward heaven.
13 And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great.

Upcoming Bafana AFCON Qualifiers Confirmed
by Soccer LadumaThe two upcoming Bafana Bafana's Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches have been confirmed by the South African Football Association.
Following their 1-0 win over Sudan at the weekend, after the 2-0 defeat against Ghana in the opening match of their qualifying campaign at the Cape Coast Stadium last Thursday, Bafana have moved to second place in Group C of the 2021 AFCON qualifiers.
Read: SA To Represent In Big CAF Match
Ghana are at the top of the standings with six points, following their successive wins against Bafana and São Tomé respectively.
“After two matches played, the 2021 AFCON qualifiers will take a break and resume in 2020. Bafana Bafana will be involved in back to back clashes against Sao Tome – the first match will be away at the end of August, followed almost immediately by the home leg early in September. During that period, Ghana will host Sudan and then travel for the away leg. It is almost certain that after this stage, it will become clearer as to who will book their place in Cameroon,” confirmed SAFA on their official website.
Read: Lifeline For Ngele In AFCON Qualifiers!
“In October, South Africa will host Ghana, and will then be away to Sudan in November for the final match of the qualifiers. Only the top two teams in the group will qualify,” SAFA added, in confirming the rest of the fixtures.

Review: BULWORTH [1998] [20th Century Fox]
Starring: Warren Beatty, Halle Berry, Don Cheadle, Oliver Platt, Paul Sorvino, Jack Warden, Isaiah Washington, Sean Astin. Produced by: Warren Beatty Directed by: Warren Beatty Story by: Warren Beatty Screenplay by: Warren Beatty and Jeremy Pikser
Review by: Joy Wyse
More than once the title of this movie is misspelled as Bullworth. Now, there has to be a reason that people think it's Bull! The movie itself certainly isn't. It's right on!
Warren Beatty has written, produced and directed another unusual film. It begins with Beatty as J.Billington Bulworth, running for re-election and showing signs of being a man on the edge. He's had enough! He doesn't want to go on. So, he makes a deal with an insurance company executive [Paul Sorvino] to block a bill that is detrimental to Sorvino's company. In exchange, he will insure Bulworth's life for $10 million dollars, payable to his daughter, not his wife. Why, you wonder?
Next, Bulworth makes arrangements, through his friend, Jack Warden, for a "hit" to be made, on himself. He is not to know the identity of the assassin.
Once everything is set, he goes to a church in the ghetto to deliver that dull speech that we heard repeated over and over at the film's beginning. Suddenly he seems to realize that he has nothing to lose so he says exactly what's on his mind. This starts the chain of events that make up the plot. Unlike Jim Carrey in "Liar, Liar", Bulworth doesn't have to tell the truth. He simply says whatever comes to mind, and as time passes, he says it in rap!
His change of behavior [and wardrobe] affects many lives. His campaign manager begins to change before our eyes. Halle Berry's character is the one that disappoints us. She has too many sides to her personality. I couldn't believe her actions. Of course, she had to be there for the love interest. Hey, when you're going for way out, why not put a 26 year old black female opposite a 60 year old male?
What do we think about Bulworth's interest in Halle? His wife, portrayed by Christine Baranski, is shown as a shallow, class-conscious female who is having an affair. Of course that means that we should approve his desire for Halle. Christine is perfect for the part, but she's wasted in the film. I would have liked to have seen more of her and her reactions to Bulworth's antics.
This is not a film that is going to go down in film history. It doesn't have the oomph of "Wag The Dog", although it wants to be. I did find that the mixed ethnic audience viewing the screening all seemed to laugh at the same places. Maybe films like this are bringing us closer together.
I'd watch it again, but not too soon...probably on free TV. I give it a B-.

ntfs-3g-2017.3.23
Introduction to Ntfs-3g
The Ntfs-3g package contains a
stable, read-write open source driver for NTFS partitions. NTFS
partitions are used by most Microsoft operating systems. Ntfs-3g
allows you to mount NTFS partitions in read-write mode from your
Linux system. It uses the FUSE kernel module to be able to
implement NTFS support in user space. The package also contains
various utilities useful for manipulating NTFS partitions.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-9.1
platform.
Package Information
Ntfs-3g Dependencies
Optional
fuse
2.x (this disables user mounts)
User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/ntfs-3g
Kernel
Configuration
Enable the following options in the kernel configuration and
recompile the kernel if necessary:
File systems --->
<*/M> FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) support [CONFIG_FUSE_FS]
Installation of Ntfs-3g
Install Ntfs-3g by running the
following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--disable-static \
--with-fuse=internal &&
make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
make install &&
ln -sv ../bin/ntfs-3g /sbin/mount.ntfs &&
ln -sv ntfs-3g.8 /usr/share/man/man8/mount.ntfs.8
If you want ordinary users to be able to mount NTFS partitions
you'll need to set mount.ntfs with the root user ID.  As the root
user:
chmod -v 4755 /bin/ntfs-3g
Command Explanations
--disable-static
: This
switch prevents installation of static versions of the libraries.
--with-fuse=internal
: This
switch dynamically forces ntfs-3g
to use an internal copy of the fuse-2.x library. This is required if you wish
to allow users to mount NTFS partitions.
--disable-ntfsprogs
: Disables
installation of various utilities used to manipulate NTFS
partitions.
ln -sv ../bin/ntfs-3g
/sbin/mount.ntfs: Creating /sbin/mount.ntfs makes
mount default to
using Ntfs-3g to mount NTFS partitions.
chmod -v 4755
/bin/ntfs-3g: Making mount.ntfs setuid root allows
non root users to mount NTFS partitions.
Using Ntfs-3g
To mount a Windows partition at boot time, put a line like this in
/etc/fstab:
/dev/sda1 /mnt/windows auto defaults 0 0
To allow users to mount a usb stick with an NTFS filesystem on it,
put a line similar to this (change sdc1 to whatever a usb stick
would be on your system) in /etc/fstab:
/dev/sdc1 /mnt/usb auto user,noauto,umask=0,utf8 0 0
In order for a user to be able to mount the usb stick, they will
need to be able to write to /mnt/usb
,
so as the root
user:
chmod -v 777 /mnt/usb

--- layout: base title: Computer Anonymous - Edinburgh ---
Read the overview, if you haven't already.
You can add your name by doing a fork and pull request on the github page, or by emailing computercomputercomputer at glastonbridge dot co dot uk. The latter method is somewhat unreliable and uses a high-latency meat interface, but it tries hard.
There is also an edinburgh-specific IRC channel on freenode called ##computer.ed (web IRC interface)
Computer Anonymous Edinburgh has a Twitter account: @whycomputered
We also have an announce mailing list.
The Southern was okay, but a bit noisy. I know some people struggled to hear conversations.
The Royal Dick was found to be a little awkward for people to get to.
Biblos has served us well for a few months, but it has been suggested that somewhere people feel less pressure to buy drinks might be a good idea.
The usual suspects for a techy meetup are:
But do we want to go back to the same old places? Perhaps there's somewhere nice down Leith, or in some other part of the town that would be more accessible to people who don't normally go to meet-ups?

Our second meeting at B+B Edinburgh saw the introduction of the formal informal discussion structure, whereby a number of pre-suggested topics were considered for structured discussion. In the end, we settled on bashing PHP for a bit. Cartharsis achieved, a disucssion on the nature of cloud services (defined as utility model pricing of online computing resources) and the popular conception there-of was led by John and all were enlightened.
This was our first meeting at B+B Edinburgh and was pretty well attended. Everyone seemed pleased with the new venue, especially the view and the lack of noise. There was some discussion of a potential summer outing to somewhere near Edinburgh on the coast.
These meetings were held at Biblos on 7th January, 10th February and 10th March respectively. 12 people attended in January (with comings and goings over the course of the evening) and 5 people were present in February.
Due to organiser failure, we didn't meet on the 8th of November, but we will be meeting in November.
The best date selected was Thursday the 14th. I've asked The Royal Dick to reserve us some space, but if they can't accommodate us we can fall back to the Southern again.
I'd still like to explore non-traditional venues, but it seems like finding something suitable is nearly impossible. Am I wrong? Let me know!
The first meeting was really informal and chatty, which is cool, but there's one specific thing I want to bring up to discuss for next time: what do we do in December, where the 8th is on a weekend? Also, I need assistance as I'm not reliable enough to organise things by myself. I'll be asking for a volunteer to help keep Computer Anonymous Edinburgh going.
Our first meeting was at The Southern on Tuesday the 8th of October, from 7pm.
19 people attended! It was great, and we had a big red button and some people ate burgers.
Were you there? I thought it was great, but maybe I'm wrong. If you have any feedback, questions, or concerns at all, please contact me: @semanticist / john@semantici.st.
