This class is a derivative of the standard InputSource class.
It provides for the parser access to data stored in a memory buffer. The type of buffer and its host specific attributes are of little concern here. The only real requirement is that the memory be readable by the current process.
Note that the memory buffer size is expressed in bytes, not in characters. If you pass it text data, you must account for the bytes per character when indicating the buffer size.
As with all InputSource derivatives. The primary objective of an input source is to create an input stream via which the parser can spool in data from the referenced source. In this case, there are two options available.
The passed buffer can be adopted or merely referenced. If it is adopted, then it must be dynamically allocated and will be destroyed when the input source is destroyed (no reference counting!.) If not adopted, the caller must insure that it remains valid until the input source object is destroyed.
The other option indicates whether each stream created for this input source should get its own copy of the data, or whether it should just stream the data directly from this object's copy of the data. The same rules apply here, in that the buffer must either be copied by the stream or it must remain valid until the stream is destroyed.

| const XMLSize_t | byteCount, | |||
| const XMLCh *const | bufId, | |||
| const bool | adoptBuffer = false , |
|||
| MemoryManager *const | manager = XMLPlatformUtils::fgMemoryManager | |||
| ) |
A memory buffer input source is constructed from a buffer of byte data, and the count of bytes in that buffer.
The parser will parse from this memory buffer until it has eaten the indicated number of bytes.
Note that the system id provided serves two purposes. Firstly it is going to be displayed in error messages as the source of the error. And secondly, any entities which are referred to from this entity via relative paths/URLs will be relative to this fake system id.
| srcDocBytes | The actual data buffer to be parsed from. | |
| byteCount | The count of bytes (not characters, bytes!) in the buffer. | |
| bufId | A fake system id for the buffer. | |
| adoptBuffer | Indicates whether this object should adopt the buffer (i.e. become responsible for deletion) or just use it in place. | |
| manager | Pointer to the memory manager to be used to allocate objects. |
| xercesc::MemBufInputSource::MemBufInputSource | ( | const XMLByte *const | srcDocBytes, | |

| const char *const | bufId, | |||
| const bool | adoptBuffer = false , |
|||
| MemoryManager *const | manager = XMLPlatformUtils::fgMemoryManager | |||
| ) |
This constructor is identical to the previous one, except that it takes the fake system id in local code page form and transcodes it internally.
| xercesc::MemBufInputSource::~MemBufInputSource | ( | ) |
If the buffer was adopted, the copy made during construction is deleted at this point.
| BinInputStream* xercesc::MemBufInputSource::makeStream | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
This method will return a binary input stream derivative that will parse from the memory buffer.
If setCopyBufToStream() has been set, then the stream will make its own copy. Otherwise, it will use the buffer as is (in which case it must remain valid until the stream is no longer in use, i.e. the parse completes.)
Implements xercesc::InputSource.
| void xercesc::MemBufInputSource::resetMemBufInputSource | ( | const XMLByte *const | srcDocBytes, | |
| const XMLSize_t | byteCount | |||
| ) |
This methods allows the MemBufInputSource to be used for more than one input source, instead of destructing/constructing another MemBufInputSource.
| srcDocBytes | The actual data buffer to be parsed from. | |
| byteCount | The count of bytes (not characters, bytes!) in the buffer. |
| void xercesc::MemBufInputSource::setCopyBufToStream | ( | const bool | newState | ) | [inline] |
By default, for safety's sake, each newly created stream from this input source will make its own copy of the buffer to stream from.
This avoids having to deal with aliasing of the buffer for simple work. But, for higher performance applications or for large buffers, this is obviously not optimal.
In such cases, you can call this method to turn off that default action. Once turned off, the streams will just get a pointer to the buffer and parse directly from that. In this case, you must insure that the buffer remains valid for as long as any parse events are still using it.
| newState | The new boolean flag state to set. |

Lott carries South Alabama past Pikeville College 82-51
MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - Chad Lott had 18 points to lead five South Alabama players in double figures as the Jaguars easily beat Pikeville College 82-51 on Wednesday night.
Trhae Mitchell added 15 points and nine blocks - tying Frank Wilson (1994) and Kelly Blaine (‘84) for the school record.
Josh Ajayi chipped in 13, and KK Curry and Andre Fox each had 10 for the Jaguars. Mitchell also had nine blocks for the Jaguars, while Ajayi posted 13 rebounds and three blocks.
Luke Layhew had 16 points for the Bears. Jordan Perry added 11 points.
South Alabama (1-0) plays Southern Miss at home on Saturday.

dialog to adjust optical schar recognition of images
this dialog is currently under construction and can not be accessed through TableCrab.
you have to start it directly via >>python Tc2DialogOcrEditor.py
.
some future version of TableCrab may add functionality to let users adjust optical char
recognition. until then the dialog should be useful as developer tool. in the background
of the dialog gocr, an open source optical char recognition engine, does the dirty work.
Scan image
scans current image
Open image..
opens an image from disk for scanning
Save image..
saves current image to disk
Open settings..
loads settings from disk
Save settings..
saves current settigs to disk
the settings pane to the left holds various settings to be adjusted for scanning
Chars
if enabled, limits chars to be recognized to the specified subset. range notation 0-9 A-Z
is supported
Gray level
if enabled, adjusts gray level for scanning. the ocr engine assumes black is text,
white is background, this setting adjusts the threshold (0-255)
Dust size
if enabled, adjust size of dust (in pixels) to be filtered from image
Word spacing
if enabled, adjusts size of word spacing as opposed to char spacing (in pixels)
Ceratinty
if enabled, adjusts the certainty required to recognize a char (0-100). NOTE: unrecognized chars
are represented in the output by an underscore
Invert image
if checked, inverts the image before scanning
Analyze layout
if checked, the ocr engine applies layout analysis
Context correction
if checked, the ocr engine applies context correction on chars
Compare unknown chars
if checked, the ocr engine tries to recongize unrecognized chars by comparing them to
recognized ones
Divide overlapping chars
if checked, the ocr engine tries to divide overlappng chars
Pack chars
if checked, the ocr engine does ..well ..whatever ocr engines do when packing chars
Output type
if enabled, tries to convert the output to the specified type ..integer or floating point number
are supported types for now.
Output pattern
if enabled, filters the output through the specified regular expression pattern. i assume
you are familliar with pythons regex engine. extended, multiline patterns are ok.
unicode flag will be set. the pattern should contain a named group "output"
that matches whatever is is intended to be returned as output. filtering is applied
before type conversion is done (if any).
holds the image to be scanned
output is dumped to the left sub pane, errors to the right one.

The Slate gives every item a set of aspects -- that is,
named points on the item. The aspects of an item depends on its shape,
and you can query the Slate for the shape of an item:
set slate [::tycho::Slate::demoslate]
set f [$slate create Frame 120 120 150 140 -borderwidth 4 -color green]
set l [$slate create line 30 30 30 50 50 50 50 70 -arrow last]
set s [$slate create Solid 100 20 120 20 120 10 140 30 120 50 120 40 100 40]
$slate shape $s
c
or center
, and the eight compass points:
n
, s
, e
, w
,
ne
, nw
, se
, and
sw
. An item with "line" shape has aspects
start
, end
, and one aspect of the form
vertex-n
of each vertex.
To query an item for an aspect, just use the aspect
method:
$slate aspect $f nw
$slate aspect $l vertex-0 vertex-1
If no aspects are given, this method return a list of
all aspects of the item:
$slate aspect $l
$slate moveto $l 2 2 start
start
.)
An item can be reshaped by specifying an aspect and
the distance to move it (click multiple times):
$slate reshape $f 10 10 se
More than one aspect can be moved if it makes sense to
do so (click multiple times):
$slate reshape $l 10 0 vertex-2 vertex-3
An item can also be reshaped by specifying an absolute
location for one of its aspects:
$slate reshapeto $l 100 100 end

Energy Transfer: Dead Capital, Leverage, Shorts, And Take Under Considerations
by Ray MerolaSummary
- Is "dead capital" stunting Energy Transfer's return-on-invested-capital versus peers?
- Is the debt leverage ratio approaching management's objectives?
- Are shorts seriously affecting ET unit prices?
- What's the probability of Energy Transfer going private, or enacting some other kind of entity change?
- Read on to see how these and other items may affect you. Then weigh in with your own views/comments.
In this quarterly writeup, I'll stray from simply recapping Energy Transfer's (ET) third-quarter results. As has been the case for the last several quarters, the numbers were quite solid. Distributable cash flow, operating cash flow, and EBITDA continue to rise. Leverage is trending down. Liquidity is strong.
For this edition, let's review several ancillary items:
- Does “dead capex,” or spent capital that isn't providing any meaningful cash returns, contributing to subpar return-on-invested-capital versus peers? Energy Transfer continues to record lower RoIC than peers.
- How's management doing on the leverage front? They made it clear it's not about total debt; the objective is to drive down the net-debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio as aligned with credit rating agency computations.
- What's ET short interest looking like? Are short sellers distorting the price?
- What change-entity options could be considered? I'll handicap my views on the potential for Energy Transfer to go private via LBO, enact a take under, set up a two-tier buyout; or convert to a C-corp.
Dead Capex
Energy Transfer's return-on-invested-capital (RoIC) lags peers. For this exercise, MPLX LP (MPLX), Enterprise Products Partners (EPD), Plains All-America (PAA) and Magellan Midstream Partners (MMP) are considered peers.
Here's the scorecard:
Return-on-Invested-Capital – MLP Peers ((ttm))
| Company | RoIC % |
| MPLX LP | 9.6% |
| Enterprise Products Partners | 12.9% |
| Plains All-America | 10.1% |
| Magellan Midstream Partners | 18.1% |
| Energy Transfer | 7.3% |
A discussion is in order.
RoIC may be calculated in a number of different ways. A traditional measure is:
EBIT / (Total Assets – Current Liabilities – Cash)
However, given the MLP model emphasizes Distributable Cash Flow (DCF), I elected to use this metric for the numerator. DCF is a non-GAAP measure that seeks to reflect core net cash flow after run-and-maintain capital expenditures. DCF carves out one-off cash expenditures. It's considered a standard-bearer within the MLP industry.
So the table above uses this formula:
DCF / (Total Assets – Current Liabilities – Cash)
For the denominator of the calculation, I determined Invested Capital using 3Q 2019 balance sheet figures. Other analysts may use average Invested Capital through the period; that's perfectly reasonable. Furthermore, I included goodwill and intangible assets in my computation. Some omit these items.
For reference, MPLX has the highest percentage of goodwill and intangible assets as a function of total assets: 29%. Following in rank order are EPD (15%), ET (12%), PAA (9%) and MMP (nil).
Interpreting the Results
Clearly, Energy Transfer is low on the RoIC totem pole; and it's been low for awhile. Carrying post-acquisition goodwill and intangible assets doesn't appear to explain the delta since several peers carry similar figures. Since ET has been growing quickly, one may argue for utilizing average Invest Capital through the period. However, a peek at the other balance sheets indicates the other MLPs are growing, too.
But what about “dead capex?”
Dead capex is expended growth capital not yet providing a cash return. It represents project that are incomplete, suspended, or haven't begun to generate meaningful cash flow yet.
That begs the question: how much “dead capital” is on the Energy Transfer balance sheet?
Armed with no more than an educated guess, I figure the sum total is between $5 billion to $10 billion. The ME2x pipeline isn't operational; neither is Revolution. Lots of sleeping dough there. Mont Belvieu Frac VII and Frac VIII are still in the construction phase. So is the Lone Star Express expansion, and the Orbit JV. The Arrowhead III gas processing plant, Permian Express 4, and the Red Bluff Express pipeline just went live a month or so ago. I presume current cash flows on these projects are light.
Let's say there's $7 billion tied up and not generating meaningful cash flow.
Now we'll presume this capital may ultimately return 12%. Of course, some of these projects will return more, but some are highly likely to provide a lesser return.
Presuming there's little run-and-maintain capital required on new construction, these projects may increase DCF by ~$840 million.
What's this do to Energy Transfer's RoIC if it instantly had access to that growth capital cash flow?
It raises the RoIC to 8.3% from 7.3%. Yes, it's a bump, but it doesn't get the team into the first division, either.
Energy Transfer appears to be saddled with sub-optimal growth investments, chronic project over-runs, lower-than-expected cash returns, or a combination of the above. As advocated in earlier article, good investors should keep an eye on this.
Leverage
The Street's been pounding on Energy Transfer management about excessive debt leverage, and in turn, management has been responding. The stated goal is to get leverage (defined as net-debt-to-EBITDA) down to 4.0x to 4.5x.
Once again, a discussion in in order.
First, the leverage calculation isn't set in stone. Each quarter, Energy Transfer reports “bank leverage.” This represents ND2EBITDA as determined by the company's banking covenants. As of the end of 3Q 2019, bank leverage is down to 3.63x.
The Street is interested in the credit rating agencies' leverage ratios. Each outfit determines leverage a bit differently; Energy Transfer doesn't offer investors bookends or rough estimates. However, on a recent conference call, CEO Tom Long indicated the company is “on the doorstep” of the 4.0x to 4.5x bogey. Well, that sounds promising.
Yours truly computed Energy Transfer's 3Q 2019 leverage to be 4.75x.
My calculation utilized “straight” EBITDA , meaning no management adjustments. I just took unadjusted figures from the income statement. For net debt, I included 50% of the total issued value of all preferred stock (NOTE: management secured agreement from the rating agencies that the preferred offerings constituted 50% debt and 50% equity), but excluded operating lease liabilities (totaling $870 million). Under recent accounting rules, operating lease liability is now considered indebtedness.
As an adjunct exercise, if I run the same leverage numbers using “adjusted” EBITDA, the ratio drops to just 4.28x. Therefore, we know that's NOT how the rating agencies calculate it, but it's worthwhile to understand even a few permitted EBITDA adjustments could get debt leverage within the bulls-eye. So Tom Long appears to be giving us the straight skinny.
Indeed, leverage as calculated via the aforementioned formula is trending down. Management seems focused upon meeting the target range.
And that's a good thing.
Short Interest/Short Squeeze
Are large investors shorting Energy Transfer stock? Shorts can pound a stock price down.
However, shorts also must pay dividends (or distributions) from whom they borrowed the stock. A wise man once noted,
At some point, shorts always cover.
For longs, a short squeeze is a beautiful thing.
Here's another scorecard showing the short interest ratio and days-to-cover for Energy Transfer versus peers:
Short Interest Ratio and Days-To-Cover – MLP Peers
| Short Ratio | Days-To-Cover | |
| MPLX LP | 5.8% | 9.0 days |
| Enterprise Products Partners | 2.5% | 9.4 days |
| Plains All-America | 4.6% | 7.6 days |
| Magellan Midstream Partners | 4.2% | 4.1 days |
| Energy Transfer | 5.3% | 9.7 days |
data souce: shortsqueeze.com
While Energy Transfer stock has the highest days-to-cover and a relatively high short interest ratio, there's nothing in the table indicating a significant degree of separation versus peers. Many MLPs are under pressure (out-of-favor, terrible investor sentiment), and ET is in the same House of Pain.
For reference, I consider a short interest ratio above 10% and / or a days-to-cover greater than 10 days to be high. Energy Transfer is approaching a marker, but currently none of the group (including ET) passes the threshold.
Change-Entity Options
The subject of change-entity appears to be a hot topic among many Energy Transfer retail investors. I get questions about it all the time.
Some inquirers are trying to see things through the lens of management: "I wonder if they've got some home-cooking going on?" Others show the effects of being traumatized; and fear getting “Kindered.”
Upfront, I have no particular insight to this issue. Management cannot talk with you or me about this without making some kind of public disclosure. They're not doing that. So following are simply my opinions. Nothing more or less.
Here's my shortlist of potential entity changes:
- LBO buyout / go private
- Take under buyout / go private
- Two-tier buyout ala Tallgrass (TGE)
- C-corp conversion ala Kinder Morgan (KMI)
- Canadian C-corp conversion, relist on NASDAQ ala Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP)
Let's pick these apart.
Leveraged Buyout or LBO
Definition: A leveraged buyout is the acquisition of another company using a significant amount of borrowed money (bonds or loans) to meet the cost of the acquisition. The purpose of leveraged buyouts is to allow companies or individuals to make large acquisitions without having to commit a lot of capital.
Discussion: Energy Transfer has a market cap of $29.3 billion and an enterprise value of $82.6 billion. It's one of the largest MLPs in the space. The size of the organization makes it difficult to acquire or take private, even for a big acquirer. Significant debt just makes it all the more difficult.
Probability: Very Low
Take Under
Definition: A take under is an offer to purchase or acquire a public company at a price per share (unit) that is less than its current market price. A take under is almost always unsolicited and generally occurs when the target company is in severe financial distress or has some other major problem that threatens its long-term viability as a going concern.
Discussion: The unit price is already below any reasonable semblance of fair value. Via several FVE metrics, I believe ET common units' fair value is $19 or $20 each. There are no current issues around Energy Transfer's financial stability. A third-party hostile take under would almost certainly rejected by management. If enacted internally, Energy Transfer's management would find it difficult to cajole enough LPs to sellout at prices below current bids to enable such a transaction.
Indeed, if the objective was to force prices lower for a potential insider take under, management is flunking the course. Separate and apart from the current miserable price action: distributable cash flow, operating cash flow, and EBITDA are being driven forward strongly. The cash distribution is covered 2x by DCF. Debt leverage is trending down. It appears to this humble contributor management is trying to get unit prices to go UP.
Probability: Very Low
Two-Tier Buyout
Definition: In this scenario, management and insiders receive a higher buyout price than the regular-Joe LPs.
Discussion: Tallgrass Energy (TGE) management and public LPs are grappling with this scenario.
In short, Blackstone (BX) bought up ~44% of Tallgrass common units, then announced it wanted to buy out the remaining shares and the General Partner. TGE common units crated on the news. To make matters worse, a letter agreement surfaced that promised certain management insiders a higher price for their units than offered to the general public. Ian Bezek, a fellow S.A. contributor, wrote about it here. An additional link about the situation is found via Reuters here.
The prospective deal isn't finalized. As one might expect, there are a lot of unhappy LP owners. Management is attempting to justify the uplift, right after indicating they weren't up to any shenanigans. It's still being sorted out.
Ugly.
Meanwhile, Tallgrass continues to struggle with capitalization problems. Plus it's a small MLP; the total market cap is barely over $5 billion. On a number of fronts, the circumstances don't compare apples-for-apples with Energy Transfer. However, for those who dislike (or don't trust) Kelcy Warren, I guess it's ripe for the offing. Indeed, the Tallgrass deal stinks for LP holders. It's a black eye for the MLP industry: pointing up the potential for horrendous governance. Re Energy Transfer, I don't see it.
Probability: Very Low
C-Corp Conversion
Definition: The definition is self-explanatory. The devil is in the details.
Discussion: Without going into too much depth, there is reasoning behind converting a MLP to a C-corp. These may include opening up a wider group of investors, (including certain ETFs), eliminating IDRs, eliminating the need for K-1 tax forms / reporting (some individual investors hate this), and ensuring stronger governance. The recent corporate tax changes (lower corporate tax rates) could also make C-corp conversion more appealing.
On the other hand, such a conversion triggers a re-valuation exercise whereby existing unitholders must pay taxes upon a new appraisal of the company's assets. This often triggers large tax liabilities.
In the specific case of Energy Transfer, it would very likely trigger such a liability. Such liability could include the largest common unitholder: Kelcy Warren. In a recent Bloomberg article, a C-corp conversion could buy KW a $65 million annual tax bite. Upon due consideration, I tend to agree with Bloomberg. As outlined in the article, the Warren and Duncan families (who own enormous individual stakes in Energy Transfer and Enterprise Products Partners, respectively), it would seem a conversion may not be in their best interest.
Specifically for Kelcy Warren, now almost 65 years old, retaining the MLP structure and leaving his units to his heirs (including a step-up unit valuation upon death) is fairly easy math. Though, to be fair, on a recent conference call CEO Warren didn't dismiss the option completely.
It's also note-worthy, Energy Transfer insiders, including KW, continue to buy units. Over the past twelve months, insiders bought 9.2 million units, while selling 300 thousand. Over the past three months, insiders bought 3.5 million units, and NONE were sold.
About one year ago, Kelcy Warren bought 3 million ET units at prices ranging between $14.93 and $15.64. These were direct purchases. He's far underwater on this investment. Here's a link to Energy Transfer insider trading data.
Probability: Low, but could change if the prospective capital appreciation uplift appeared likely to eclipse the tax leakage.
Convert to Canadian C-corp
Definition: Self-explanatory.
Discussion: An esteemed S.A. reader turned me onto this one. Admittedly, I have done little due diligence on it. However, I did report this option to Energy Transfer management. The ET recipient stated he'd never heard about this MLP-to-corporation approach.
The scheme is similar to the aforementioned U.S. C-corp conversion; but there may be some twists. It creates an Exchange Corporation.
For those interested, Brookfield Renewable Partnership (BEP) plans to do this. A link with some details is provided here.
Evidently, it provides the opportunity / optionality for current investors to either convert common units into shares, or retain units in the LP entity. There may be additional advantageous tax consequences versus converting to a domestic corporation, but these are not clear to me. I have not researched this.
Nonetheless, I thought to share this information with you.
A corollary to this approach was Energy Transfer's proposed ETC shares. ETC was conceived to be a C-corp structure created in conjunction with the ill-fated Williams Co (WMB) merger. At the time, if the merger had been completed Energy Transfer unitholders may have elected to convert all or some of their units into ETC shares.
Probability: Unknown.
Summary And Conclusions
This article had attempted to look behind the recent earnings report and address a number of pertinent questions S.A. readers posed to me.
Based upon my best estimates, "dead capital" doesn't fully explain the relatively low return-on-invested-capital versus peers. An add-back offers about 100 bps greater return, but it's not enough to push ET on par with peers. I suspect a combination of other factors are also contributed to lower RoIC: including significant cost overruns on major projects now in service, pursuit of older projects that failed to meet the hurdle rate, and current project cash flows not yet ramped up.
The questions about debt and leverage and heading in the right direction. Bank leverage is down to 3.63x. Credit rating agency leverage calculations vary by outfit, but based upon my work it appears Energy Transfer now has a ~4.75x net-debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio. This is "on the doorstep" of the 4.0x to 4.5x ranged targeted by management. I believe we will see the objective met no later than mid-year 2020.
The question about short selling is relevant. Nonetheless when examined, it does not appear to be a major driver in the recent price decline. Many of the midstream MLPs are under price pressure, and most are facing a meaningful short selling. However, short interest ratios or days to cover haven't reached red flag levels for Energy Transfer or peers. It certainly doesn't separate ET from peers, or explain the recent horrendous price action.
Lastly, questions continue to swirl about the potential for the company to go private, or enact some other type of entity change. Indeed, the investment community has put the MLP model under pressure. However, in the case of Energy Transfer, after alternate structures are reviewed, I consider the current probability for a major change to be low. First, Energy Transfer is one of the largest MLPs in the space; it's a big pill to swallow, and the company is already heavily leveraged. Second, CEO Kelcy Warren is a major unitholder. Change-entity tax bleed is a major consideration. And third, it appears management is focused upon creating stockholder value, not taking the entity private.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Do I need any qualifications?
You don’t need any specific qualifications for this role. We’re much more interested in your personal qualities and life experience.
-
Do I have to wear a uniform?
Yes, you will be provided with a uniform.
-
What training will I receive and what is involved?
With continued investment in training, we’ve increased prison officer training to 12 weeks: 10 weeks of that is the Prison Officer Entry Level Training (POELT) course and weeks 1 and 12 are hosted by the home establishment.
Week 1 provides new officers with the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the establishment layout, the role of the establishment and the work they will be expected to carry out after training. Week 2-11 is formal training which is delivered at one of a number of training sites across England and Wales; this is known as Prison Officer Entry Level Training (POELT).
On successful completion of the formal training new officers will return to their establishment for week 12 where they will have a consolidation week, this gives them the opportunity to apply the learning from formal training.
The course combines a mixture of theory and practice-based classroom and dojo activities, each session within the course aims to give new officers a knowledge and understanding of the following:
- Health and safety responsibilities
- Organisational, legal and moral responsibility to those in custody
- Communication and interpersonal skills
- Safer custody in custodial environments
- Offending behaviour and methods for reducing re-offending
- Operating safely
- Operating securely
- Recording and reporting
- Use of force
- Searching individuals
- Escorting
- Pro-social behaviour in working relationships with individuals
New officers are continually assessed during the course using a range of different practical and written assessment methods. All assessments are designed to test skills and to check knowledge, for example the practical assessments aim to demonstrate competence in:
- Radio procedures and urgent message
- Rub down searching
- Full search
- Cell searching
- Handcuffing
- Accommodation fabric check
- Roll checks
- Locking and unlocking
During the course new officers will be required to complete the SFJ Level 3 Diploma in the management and care of individuals in the custodial environment.
The main objective of this qualification is to provide them with the knowledge, and many of the skills, required to work in custodial environments.
It is a requirement that they complete this qualification during the POELT course in order to take up full duties as a prison officer.
In order to gain the qualification, they must successfully complete:
- A written final summative assessment paper (knowledge & scenario-based questioning)
- 12 knowledge-based work books (Level 3 qualification)
- A range of practical skills assessments (Level 3 qualification)
- Use of force - theory and practical (Level 3 qualification)
- Demonstrating and maintaining professional standards
They are also required to complete the following:
- Work with others to produce a work-based project
- A weekly personal development journal
- A range of personal reflection records
-
Will I have to work shifts?
Prison officers can opt to work either a 37, 39 or 41 hour week. You will work on a rolling shift pattern, usually of 39 hours, which includes some nights and some weekends and some public and bank holidays (any public or bank holidays you work will be added to your annual leave allowance – find out more below).
Your salary will be dependent on the number of hours you work. You will have the opportunity to work overtime in certain circumstances.
Work/life balance options such as part-time hours and job shares are also available, subject to completion of your 10-week full-time POELT course and induction.
-
How can I develop my career?
As a prison officer, even if you never go for promotion, your career can take you in many different directions. As you will have read under ‘The role’, there are a lot of different areas where you can develop your career. All of these responsibilities require different skills. If you want to specialise further, you’ll have the opportunity to train to become a physical education officer, a dog handler, or, when you look back and remember the people who first helped you along – perhaps become a trainer yourself.
-
What might my day look like?
Working closely with your team, you'll have a number of key responsibilities that make rehabilitation possible. The first one's pretty obvious: You'll make sure the prison is safe and secure, and that all offenders are accounted for. Beyond that, it'll be up to you to supervise daily routines, giving offenders much-needed structure in their lives. You'll also act as a role model, doing what you can to encourage constructive choices. There'll definitely be days when you feel more like a guard than a guardian of change. But imagine the sense of satisfaction that'll come from helping people turn their lives around.
-
What's the salary?
Salaries in Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) vary between different grades, areas and individual prisons. To find out what you could earn depending on your situation, download the PDF below.

by Douglas MubiruThe prosecution alleges that during the month of June 2019 in various places such as Masaka, Mbarara, Ibanda and Kampala, Bajjo incited members of the public.
COURT
KAMPALA-The Buganda Road Chief Magistrates’ Court has declined dismissing music promoter Andrew Mukasa alias Bajjo’s inciting violence case.
Bajjo appeared before the Grade One Magistrate, Marion Mangeni in thought that his case was to be dismissed as earlier stated in the previous court ruling.
However, Mangeni declined dismissing the case on grounds that the trial Magistrate, Stella Amabilis, who’s handling the case, was indisposed.
“I cannot dismiss your case for am just holding brief for the trial Magistrate meant to handle it, and she is indisposed per say,” Mangeni said.
Prior, Bajjo’s lawyer, Erias Lukwago had requested court to dismiss the case alleging that the state had failed to avail witnesses to pin his client, which court accepted to do.
But Lukwago’s request didn’t go successful as the trial magistrate who was meant to handle the case was indisposed.
It is then that the state prosecutor, Miriam Njuki requested court to adjourn the case.
“Due to the absence of the presiding magistrate in this case, I find it necessary to adjourn it to January 13, 2020,” Mangeni ruled.
The prosecution alleges that during the month of June 2019 in various places such as Masaka, Mbarara, Ibanda and Kampala, Bajjo incited members of the public.
It is also asserted that in June this year, with intent to disturb the peace and privacy of the president recorded a video and posted it on social media talking of overthrowing the government.
According to prosecution, Bajjo allegedly used his mobile phone to make the suggestion with no purpose of legitimate communication.


DVIPOS(1) ConTeXt DVIPOS(1) NAME dvipos - compute positions in a DVI file SYNOPSIS dvipos [ OPTION... ] infile[.dvi] DESCRIPTION dvipos parses a DVI file looking for pos: specials. It currently recog‐ nizes pos:pxy, pos:pxywhd, pos:pxyplus, pos:begbox, pos:endbox, pos:beg‐ lines, and pos:endlines. It then outputs the information from those spe‐ cials along with information that only a DVI postprocessor could deter‐ mine, such as the current x and y location. The output looks like: \pospxywhd{text:54}{54}{10663sp}{8535sp}{21326sp}{34081sp}{0sp} and is suitable for including in a tex(1) or pdftex(1) auxilliary file, such as document.tuo, to be read in by the next run of the tex(1) or sim‐ ilar typesetting engine. OPTIONS -h, --help print usage. -W, --warning print warnings. -v, --verbose print verbose output. -d, --debug print dvitype(1) debugging data. -s, --smashchars regard height and depth as zero. -o, --output=FILE send all output to FILE. Without this option, output goes to std‐ out. -b, --bbox[=FILE] send bounding box to FILE (default FILE is infile.pos). -f, --framed[=BASE] request copy of DVI file, BASE.dvi, with bounding boxes framed (default FILE is infile_frames.dvi). See the --framesize option. -m, --mag=INT override tex(1) magnification by INT. -w, --framesize=INT set frame rule size by INT (default 6554 = .1pt). -p, --pages=X:Y set page ranges from X to Y. USAGE dvipos is run mostly behind the scenes by ConTeXt's texexec(1) between runs of tex(1) or pdftex(1), in order to provide information to and get information about positional graphics. These graphics are provided by the MetaFun interface to mpost(1). dvipos is not used (or needed) in PDF-output mode but is needed for DVI-output mode. pdftex(1) starting with version 1.40 can produce position information even in DVI mode, so once the ConTeXt macros take advantage of this feature, the need for dvipos will fade. Until then, here is a typical use of dvipos: dvipos notes.dvi The position information that is output is collected by texexec(1) to include in the notes.tuo auxilliary file to use in the next run. EXAMPLES Extract positions from doc.dvi, with output to doc.loc: dvipos -o doc.loc doc.dvi Same as above, but also send bbox information to doc.pos: dvipos -b -o doc.loc doc.dvi Instead send bbox information to /tmp/debug.pos: dvipos -b=/tmp/debug.pos -o doc.loc doc.dvi SEE ALSO dvips(1), dvitype(1), mpost(1), pdftex(1), tex(1), texexec(1). For more about positional graphics, see the MetaFun documentation on the ConTeXt wiki ⟨http://wiki.contextgarden.net/MetaFun⟩. BUGS If you specify a file for the -b option, you must join the option and name with = rather than (the more common) space: dvipos -b=/tmp/debug.pos notes.dvi works, but dvipos -b /tmp/debug.pos notes.dvi does not. AUTHOR dvipos is written by Jin-Hwan Cho<EMAIL_ADDRESS>It is free software (GPLv2 or later).

Average clustering: the clustering coefficient of an individual node is equal to the proportion
of possible triangle through that node that actually exist (where a triangle is defined by three
mutually linked nodes). Human social networks demonstrate high clustering since, as a rule, one's
friends are more likely to be friends with each other than with randomly chosen person.
Transitivity: the proportion of all possible triangles between nodes that are actually present.
Closely related to clustering, for obvious reasons.
Density: the proportion of all possible links that are actually present. Human social networks
tend to exhibit quite low density because of practical limits on the number of people any one
person can know or befriend.
# : Centrlity details
Degree Centrality: simply the number of connections possessed by each node. Analogous to a person's raw
popularity in a human social network.
Closeness Centrality: distance between nodes is defined by the shortest path between them (in terms of
number of discrete links). The closeness centrality of a node is equal to 1/(sum of distances to all other
nodes).
Betweenness Centrality: is equal to the proportion of all shortest paths between nodes that pass through
a particular node. Can be a valuable property in human social networks because people can leverage their
connection to different groups a variety of ways.
Eigenvector Centrality: is a bit more complicated to compute (see link above), but is based on the intuition
that an central node is one that is connected to other central nodes. Closely related to
algorithms used by Google and others to sort search results. This measure may not work for very small
networks, so try building up a reasonably sized network before clicking this button.

Gboard 8.9 redesigns sticker tab, tweaks settings [APK Insight]
by Abner LiThe latest Gboard beta is rolling out today after features like translating emoji into GIFs and stickers emerged over the weekend. Gboard 8.9 introduces a new design for the sticker tab, while making some visual tweaks in settings.
About APK Insight: In this “APK Insight” post, we’ve decompiled the latest version of an application that Google uploaded to the Play Store. When we decompile these files (called APKs, in the case of Android apps), we’re able to see various lines of code within that hint at possible future features. Keep in mind that Google may or may not ever ship these features, and our interpretation of what they are may be imperfect. We’ll try to enable those that are closer to being finished, however, to show you how they’ll look in the case that they do ship. With that in mind, read on.
Sticker tab redesign
After a redesign that appeared for some beta users in August, Gboard is testing another sticker tab revamp. The new look is very similar to the original iteration, but with Material Theme icons. Instead of a full field, there’s a search button at the left followed by a tab for adding stickers.
Like the previous new design, browsing can be performed right in the keyboard, and the settings gear icon at the very right opens the full screen UI for browsing and managing favorites. Overall, this is a more compact implementation.
Keyboard height picker
Gboard 8.9 replaces the previous keyboard height picker for a standard list.
Settings list
To better account for the dark theme, the icons besides each menu item in settings have been adjusted to be brighter.
How to update?
You can sign up for Gboard’s beta program here, or by heading to the Play Store listing on Android and scrolling to the bottom. The latest beta version of Gboard is immediately rolled out by Google when it’s available.

UK PM Johnson's Conservatives criticized for 'factcheck' Twitter handle switch
LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative Party was criticized by fact checkers and the opposition Labour Party on Tuesday for changing the name of one of its Twitter accounts to make it look like a fact checking service during a televised election debate.
The Conservative Campaign Headquarters press office account, followed by nearly 76,000 users, changed its name to “factcheckUK” from its usual ‘CCHQPress’ and switched its avatar to a white tick against a purple background.
The account description was “Fact Checking Labour from CCHQ” throughout an hour long debate between Johnson and Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn.
It tweeted graphics supporting statements from Johnson as ‘True’ and criticized others from Corbyn. The account reverted to its regular Conservative Party branding shortly after the debate finished.
Full Fact, a fact checking charity said: “It is inappropriate and misleading for the Conservative press office to rename their Twitter account ‘factcheckUK’ during this debate. Please do not mistake it for an independent fact checking service.”
The Labour Party said it was a “scam” that showed the Conservatives could not be trusted in government.
Conservative Party Chairman James Cleverly defended the move. “We made it absolutely clear it is a Conservative Party website ... checking the claims” of Corbyn.

Eric RudolphChristian terroristSometimes people object to the phrase "Islamic terrorist." It's easy to find op-eds and message board postings full of indignation about the fact no one ever refers to Timothy McVeigh as a Christian terrorist.Unfortunately for these well-intentioned bleeding hearts, there's a reason no one ever calls McVeigh a Christian terrorist -- namely, he wasn't one. Oops. McVeigh didn't go to church, he didn't preach the Word of God. Although he and his accomplice Terry Nichols received help from far-right Christian militia groups, neither was particularly religious himself (although Nichols converted after his arrest). Their motive for the Oklahoma City bombing was explicitly political, not religious.  Eric Robert Rudolph is a shining example of the fact that religious killers come in every denomination. Born in 1966, Rudolph was raised in rural North Carolina by parents who were reportedly nuts.  He enlisted in the Army but got booted for smoking pot. After the Army, Rudolph began living "off the grid," dealing in cash and refusing to put his name on utility bills, bank accounts and the like. In the rural U.S., survivalism and crazy go together like toast and jam. Rudolph allegedly took up the beliefs of Christian Identity, an extremist sect whose primary belief is that white people are God's chosen people, and everyone else is doomed to an eternity in Hell. Christian Identity also preaches the evils of homosexuality, prostitution, abortion and general sexual unseemliness of all sorts. Rudolph moved comfortably within white extremist circles, but it's not clear if he had formal ties to any specific group or network. He didn't take part in organized white power activities. He seems to have found only one outlet for his views -- violence. Rudolph is accused of bombing a park adjacent to the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, using an massive and elaborate pipe bomb loaded with nails and screws for extra killing power, an M.O. that was repeated in most of the cases now connected to Rudolph. The bomb was hidden in a knapsack, which was found by security guard Richard Jewell before it detonated. The device went off while security teams were trying to evacuate the area, killing one woman and injuring more than 100. Presumably, the Olympics were targeted for a combination of multiracial and "New World Order" overtones. Lacking any substantial leads, the police and media zeroed in on Jewell as a convenient scapegoat. Jewell was crucified in the press but eventually vindicated. In the meantime, Rudolph escaped scrutiny entirely, and he allegedly continued his bombing campaign before the dust of the Olympic bomb had settled. Rudolph has yet to be convicted of a crime, but the list of charges against him is pretty impressive. After the Olympic bombing, incidents possibly connected to Rudolph include:
We declare and will wage total war on the ungodly communist regime in New York and your legaslative bureaucratic lackey's in Washington. It is you who are responsible and preside over the murder of children and issue the policy of ungodly preversion thats destroying our people. Ironically, Rudolph was finally identified as a suspect by one of his few "on the grid" indulgences, when a witness to the 1998 bombing saw him flee the scene and noted his truck's license plate number. He was identified as a suspect in the other bombings by the similar explosive designs, including the use of nails and the planting of secondary bombs designed to hit emergency responders. The FBI issued a $1 million reward for information leading to Rudolph's arrest. Police found his truck a month after the Birmingham bombing, near a rural North Carolina town. In July, Rudolph visited an old acquaintance from whom he acquired survivalist supplies. He told the man he was heading for the hills. The man gave Rudolph a head start before contacting authorities, which allowed him to disappear into the North Carolina hills. In the interim, white supremacists and anti-government extremists began lionizing the fugitive, making him into a poster boy for the radical right. Rudolph appears to have received ample assistance in his flight from the law, luckily for him. While his survivalist skills might have been better than average, Rudolph wasn't able to live entirely off the land, and he made occasional forays back into civilization. By every account, Rudolph was good-looking and charismatic, and people helped him for any number of reasons. In North Carolina, he took on the status of a folk hero. Some helped him for his celebrity, others helped him because they didn't know who he was. He may also have received support from organized white supremacist sects, but no one has been able to prove that. Rudolph had a good run, evading the FBI for more than five years, despite the fact that his general location was well-known to authorities. He was eventually tripped up by his reliance on non-survivalist crutches, such as occasional trips to the grocery store. In 2003, a rookie police officer caught Rudolph lurking behind a supermarket where he had been dumpster diving. Rudolph is facing trial in Alabama first, and he's also been charged in the Atlanta bombings.  Either way, his first trial will extend well into 2005, or possibly beyond. Rudolph will likely end up being executed, either in Alabama or Georgia, possibly both if they can figure out a way to kill him twice. Perhaps it's a cruel trick of fate that Rudolph's trial is getting started at the same time that construction teams are working to rebuild the destroyed Murrah Building in Oklahoma City in time for the 10th anniversary of the Waco-inspired bombing there, even as the Christian Identity crazies and their pals have been ramping up the propaganda machine to anoint Rudolph the next David Koresh. Sure, Islamic terrorism has been getting all the press since September 11, but Christian terrorism is still alive and well. The only question is which one will be responsible for the next big bang. Stay tuned.

After installing the randomizer, you need to get a .wotwr file.
These files contain the necessary information for your randomized playthrough, like the location of each item.
You can generate these files yourself by using the seed generator.
For beginners, we recommend to play with these settings.
You can choose to disable Force Wisps which is a goal mode preventing you from entering the last Willow room before you collected all 5 wisps.
After you get your first .wotwr file, you want to double click on it. It should ask you which program you want to use in order to open this type of file. Choose to browse for more apps on your computer and search the file WotwRando.exe which is located in your randomizer installation folder. Once you have associated .wotwr files with the randomizer executor, you shouldn’t have to do it again and simply double clicking on a .wotwr will launch the randomizer.
The randomizer will then launch Ori and the Will of the Wisps. If it takes too long, the randomizer will fail to launch but the vanilla game will most likely launch itself nonetheless so make sure Steam is already opened before launching the randomizer.
When you reach the main menu, you can try to press Alt+L which should display a textbox with some information about the seed. If nothing appeared, the randomizer failed to inject itself in the game so you’ll need to close the game and open your .wotwr file again.
Once the randomizer launches successfully, you simply need to start playing! It’s recommended to play on a new save file because the randomizer will also affect savefiles made with the base game. If you ever feel lost when playing a seed, you can open your map and use the logic filter which will show you every item you can collect with the skills you have. You can also read the logic guide to learn more about what the randomizer might want you to do. The community is also able to help so don’t hesitate to join the Ori speedrunning Discord or the Ori randomizer development Discord if you need help with something!

Sagan's second novel tells the story of Dominique, a bored twenty year old law student at the Sorbonne in mid-1950's Paris, who embarks on a love affair with a middle-aged man.
We had been spending the afternoon in a cfe on Rue Sains-Jacques, an afternoon in springtime like any other. I was quietly rather bored: I was moving back and forth between the jukebox and the window while Bertrand discussed Spire's lecture. I remember that, at one moment, leaning against the jukebox, I had watched the record rise slowly and then place itself at an angle against the needle, almost tenderly, as it it were a cheek. And I don't know why but I was suffused with a fierce sense of happiness and with the overwhelming, almost palpable intuition that I was going to die one day and that there would no longer be this hand of mine on the chrome ledge, nor sun in my eyes.


Module: RSpec::Rails::ControllerExampleGroup::ClassMethods
- Defined in:
- lib/rspec/rails/example/controller_example_group.rb
Defined Under Namespace
Classes: DescribedClassDeprecation
Instance Method Summary (collapse)
-
- (Object) controller(base_class = nil, &body)
Supports a simple DSL for specifying behavior of ApplicationController.
-
- (Object) routes(&blk)
Specifies the routeset that will be used for the example group.
Instance Method Details
- (Object) controller(base_class = nil, &body)
Due to Ruby 1.8 scoping rules in anoymous subclasses, constants
defined in ApplicationController
must be fully qualified (e.g.
ApplicationController::AccessDenied
) in the block passed to the
controller
method. Any instance methods, filters, etc, that are
defined in ApplicationController
, however, are accessible from
within the block.
Supports a simple DSL for specifying behavior of ApplicationController.
Creates an anonymous subclass of ApplicationController and evals the
body
in that context. Also sets up implicit routes for this
controller, that are separate from those defined in "config/routes.rb".
If you would like to spec a subclass of ApplicationController, call controller like so:
controller(ApplicationControllerSubclass) do

deepmatcher.optim¶
SoftNLLLoss¶
-
class
deepmatcher.optim.
SoftNLLLoss
(label_smoothing=0, weight=None, num_classes=2, **kwargs)[source]¶ A soft version of negative log likelihood loss with support for label smoothing.
Effectively equivalent to PyTorch’s
torch.nn.NLLLoss
, if label_smoothing set to zero. While the numerical loss values will be different compared totorch.nn.NLLLoss
, this loss results in the same gradients. This is because the implementation usestorch.nn.KLDivLoss
to support multi-class label smoothing.Parameters: - label_smoothing (float) – The smoothing parameter \(epsilon\) for label smoothing. For details on label smoothing refer this paper.
- weight (
torch.Tensor
) – A 1D tensor of size equal to the number of classes. Specifies the manual weight rescaling applied to each class. Useful in cases when there is severe class imbalance in the training set. - num_classes (int) – The number of classes.
- size_average (bool) – By default, the losses are averaged for each minibatch over observations as
well as over dimensions. However, if
False
the losses are instead summed. This is a keyword only parameter.
Optimizer¶
-
class
deepmatcher.optim.
Optimizer
(method='adam', lr=0.001, max_grad_norm=5, start_decay_at=1, beta1=0.9, beta2=0.999, adagrad_accum=0.0, lr_decay=0.8)[source]¶ Controller class for optimization.
Mostly a thin wrapper for optim, but also useful for implementing learning rate scheduling beyond what is currently available. Also implements necessary methods for training RNNs such as grad manipulations.
Parameters: - method (string) – One of [sgd, adagrad, adadelta, adam].
- lr (float) – Learning rate.
- lr_decay (float) – Learning rate decay multiplier.
- start_decay_at (int) – Epoch to start learning rate decay. If None, starts decay when the validation accuracy stops improving. Defaults to 1.
- beta2 (beta1,) – Hyperarameters for adam.
- adagrad_accum (float, optional) – Initialization hyperparameter for adagrad.
-
set_parameters
(params)[source]¶ Sets the model parameters and initializes the base optimizer.
Parameters: params – Dictionary of named model parameters. Parameters that do not require gradients will be filtered out for optimization.

by Emmeline SaundersKym Marsh's eight-year-old daughter Polly has scored her first film role after following in both her mum and dad's theatrical footsteps.
The little girl will star in a new film about homelessness called Lead Belly, alongside her actor dad Jamie Lomas and former Emmerdale star Sammy Winward.
Jamie plays lead character Mark, an armed forces veteran who is suffering from PTSD from his former career.
 Huge well done to her daddy @jamielomas1 and for everyone involved in this project.
"Please everybody check out the link below and help support. Thank you," she added.
Polly is already familiar with the world of showbiz, having grown up with two soap star parents.
Kym, who left Coronation Street after 13 years to help her eldest daughter Emilie with her new baby, will be appearing on stage with Polly in her Elf: The Musical UK tour next month.
Polly will play the part of a naughty child in a scene with Santa, while Kym takes on the role of Buddy the Elf's girlfriend Jovie.
"It's amazing that I get to share the next part of my acting journey with Polly," Kym told the Loose Women panel in April.
"She loves acting and performing, so for her to land her first role aged eight is great, and we're all so proud of her.
"It's lovely to think she wants to follow in my footsteps and I know she'll do a great job. I think she was born to be in the spotlight — she's quite the little character."
Polly has been learning the trade at her Hollyoaks star dad Jamie's First Take School of Acting in Manchester, of which she "loves every second".
"I'm going to be some travelling around the country with the theatre tour and I don't want to be away from Polly," Kym wrote in her OK! magazine column earlier this year.
"I got told there was a small part for her playing one of the children, so it's worked out perfectly!
"She's been going to her dad's acting school and she's loved every second of it."
It comes after Jamie was embroiled in a fight with Emmerdale ex-star Asan N'jie at the TV Choice Awards in September.
Asan, who played Ellis Chapman in the ITV soap, was sacked after the Mirror's video showed him brawling with Jamie and threatening to stab him.

Preparation time
less than 30 mins
Cooking time
1 to 2 hours
Serves
Makes 30 biscotti
Dietary
These Christmas biscuits are great for dunking into a hot cup of coffee, hot chocolate or even mulled wine for a change to mince pies.
Preheat the oven to 170C/150C fan/325F/Gas 3. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment.
Mix the flours in a large bowl with the sugar, cranberries, cashew nuts, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, cinnamon, mixed spice and salt.
Make a well in the centre and add the eggs, vanilla seeds (or extract) and mix everything together well. It will start to lump together, but then get your hands in and really squidge it all together to form a dough.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a sausage shape about 30cm/12in long and 5cm/2in wide. Carefully lift it up and transfer it to the prepared baking tray.
Then, press it down gently so it becomes 1.5cm/ 5/8in high.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until firm and a knife pierced into the centre comes out clean. Remove from the oven and leave until cool enough to handle.
Carefully transfer from the baking tray and onto a board.  Some bits may crumble off a bit as you cut, but it’s okay. Just slice really slowly holding the biscotti ‘log’ with the other hand.
Arrange the biscotti slices lying flat on the baking sheet and return them to the oven to bake for 40 minutes, turning them over half way through. Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely.
For me these are best served dunked into something hot.


Arla, owned by 2,300 UK farmers and thousands in Europe, wants to become carbon neutral by 2050.
The co-operative’s farmers will generate an individual eco-score by inputting information including the size of herds and fuel usage.
Experts will then visit each one to create a bespoke plan for how they can slash pollution levels.
The group produces 14 billion litres of milk a year and claims its farmers already emit less than half the industry’s global average CO2.
Senior director Graham Wilkin-son said: “We want to ensure dairy has a sustainable future.”
Boss Ash Amirahmadi added: “Whilst there is a lot of negative comment about the impact of food production, farmers are, in reality, the caretakers of the countryside.”
It follows Arla’s move to scrap use-by labels this year to stop people binning perfectly good milk.
Shoppers will be urged to use the sniff test to check if milk is off.


Anyone who has researched programming languages has probably come across discussion regarding dynamic or statically typed languages. It sounds intimidating and there aren't too many concise explanations out there to help someone understand exactly what these terms mean. In this very blog post, I will attempt to do just that.
Typing
Right, so let's get this out of the way first. The confusion for me, personally, actually came from the word "typed". I couldn't tell if this meant that actually writing programs differed from language to language in the text editor or if it meant something different. As it turns out, "type" and "typing" refers to the way a particular language handles data contained in variables.
Static Typing
Simply put, a statically typed language means that once you declare a variable that is an integer, string, float or any other kind of data, that variable cannot be changed again. Here's an example in C:
NSString *staticVar = @"a string";
staticVar = 2;
If you ran this code, you would get an error that said Implicit conversion of 'int' to 'NSString *' is disallowed with ARC.
This is because we tried to assign an integer to a variable that was originally declared as a string.
Dynamic Typing
As you can probably infer, dynamic typing works the opposite way. In languages like Ruby and Python, you can assign a variable an inital value of an integer and later reassign it a string.
var = 2
puts var
2
var = "Look, now I'm a string"
puts var
"Look, now I'm a string"
See? That wasn't so bad, was it? It's actually a pretty simple concept to understand from a high level. There are a few other things to consider, although I won't go in depth about those here. Compile time vs. Runtime is an important consideration when differentiating between the two as they handle data processing differently. Statically typed languages use the compiler to check for errors before actually running the program, whereas dynamic languages only check for errors at runtime. There are advantages to both and that war has been raging on the forums for years.
Although this is a very short introduction to the concept, I hope it helps clarify some of the main concepts.

Ohio reached heights the program hadn’t before in 2018. The Bobcats earned not just their first win in NCAA Tournament play, but also won twice while they were at the Knoxville Regional.
After losing the first game in Knoxville to James Madison, 2-1, in a rain-lengthened affair, Ohio came back on Saturday with its back against the wall in the double-elimination bracket.
In the second game of three at Sherri Parker Lee Stadium on Saturday, May 20, the Bobcats won their first NCAA Tournament game.  In the nightcap, Ohio came back from a two-run deficit with a wild six-run inning to avenge the previous loss to James Madison, 7-3.

The next day, Ohio played host Tennessee in the championship series of the Regional, where the Bobcats had to win two games, compared to Lady Vols only having to win one game.
Ohio lost to Tennessee 5-1, ending its magical season.
That magical season contained a Mid-American Conference Championship, the second time the Bobcats won the conference tournament. They also won the MAC regular season title for the second time ever, too.
Danielle Stiene cemented herself in the Ohio record books. She was the MAC Pitcher of the Year and also won MAC Tournament MVP. She threw a no-hitter in the semifinal of the tournament.
She was strong all season, going 29-6. The 29 wins set a program record, and she finished second all-time in strikeouts in program history.
At the plate, Ohio was led by then-seniors Mikayla Cooper and Taylor Saxton. Cooper led the team with a .335 average, also chipping in 11 home runs. It was bolstered by the juniors, such as first-team all-MAC infielder Alex Day, who led the team with 12 homers.
That junior class also holds players that will lead the team in this upcoming season, with Natalie Alvarez returning behind the plate, Morgan Geno will hold down the designated hitter spot, and Mackenzie Brunswick and Michaela Dorsey anchor the outfield.
With all the success, coach Jodi Hermanek was hired away to coach at an Atlantic Coast Conference school in < a href="https://www.thepostathens.com/article/2018/08/ohio-softball-coach-jodi-hermanek-accepts-new-position-at-pitt">Pitt. Hermanek coached the Bobcats for ten seasons, going 289-252.
Kenzie Roark was hired to take Hermanek’s place. Roark played her college softball at Virginia Tech and was most recently an assistant coach at South Carolina Upstate for the past five seasons.
Ohio failed to make the Mid-American Conference Tournament, but still had the conference player of the year in Rudy Rott.
Rott was the third player in program history to earn MAC Player of the Year honors, following Mitch Longo in 2015 and Marc Krauss in 2009.
He led the Bobcats in average, hits, home runs and RBIs. He was the conference leader in hits and was tied for the lead in home runs.
Rott also had a .996 fielding percentage, committing only two errors on the season at first base. He will look to improve on those numbers in his senior season.
Ohio’s senior class of hitters included Tony Giannini, two-way player Michael Klein, Nick Bredeson and Evan Bourn.

Giannini and then-sophomore Tanner Piechnick were the only two hitters other than Rott to have more than 50 hits. With Rott as the exception, the Bobcat offense struggled. They hit .254 as a team, with Rott’s 15 home runs contributing almost a third of the team’s 47.
Ohio graduated a lot from its pitching staff from a year ago. The Bobcats’ Friday starter last year, Gerry Salisbury, is the headliner. They also graduated Josh Petersen, Logan Jacik, Jake Roehn, Butch Baird, Cory Blessing and the two-way player, Klein.
Pitchers such as Eddie Kutt, Derek Carr, Nick Kamrada, Chace Harris, among others, will likely be carrying the load for Ohio this season.
Ohio’s pitching, kind of like its hitting, struggled for parts of the season. As a team, the Bobcats pitched to a 4.45 ERA. Salisbury led the team in innings, with 82, and had a 4.94 ERA.
Roehn, who holds the Ohio record for career saves, struggled at times, too. He had a 4.65 ERA in 31 innings. He also almost gave up a hit per inning, with 30 hits allowed over the season.
With the Bobcats’ struggles, they missed the MAC tournament, finishing eighth. The top six teams make the tournament in Avon. They finished five losses worse than the No. 6 team, Eastern Michigan.

On the mainland opposite the western end of the island of Clovo, to which it is connected by a low bridge, Trogir is a useful port for crew changes as it is close to Split airport.
It is an interesting historic town.
Position 43°30.9'N, 16°15.2'E.
View of Trogir :©www.beachesandsunsets.com
The recently renovated Trogir Waterfront is an ideal place for berthing, but it is almost exclusively reserved for mega-yachts during summer season. Although it may be worth contacting the harbour master in advance for a reservation.
Boats under 25m generally berth in the nearby Marina Trogir (just across Trogir Waterfront) or on Island Ciovo waterfront. Marina Trogir has recently been taken over by the Camper and Nicholson Group and has plans for expansion, the first phase due to be completed by May 2015. Advisable to call in advance to book a berth.
Yachts can anchor West of the old town, on the N side of the channel and inside the 5m contour. It is also possible to anchor in 2m on to the east of the low bridge. Anchoring East of the line between Rt. Cubrijan and the pier at Seget. Some boats have reported being asked for an anchoring fee here.
The water in this harbour is reported to be very dirty.
An alternative berth may be found at Marina Agana which lies at the head of a bay 6nm due west of Trogir.
