I worked at Subway originally as a Sandwich Artist and my job would be to: make sandwiches, ring up customers, bake bread, clean everything, wash dishes, and other things. After about a few months of doing that, I had got a promotion to Keyholder, and a Keyholder is a person whom holds the key to the store and is in-charge while supervision/management are out of the store. My job as a Keyholder would be supervising everybody to ensure nobody would steal anything and I also had to do counts to make sure the drawer isn't missing a whole bunch of money. I would also have to fill the change machine and count the safe daily. I've had my job for about two years.
I am an Xbox Ambassador and love to help other people. What I do with the Xbox Ambassador program is that I go out on the Xbox community forms and respond to question and discussion posts to help others or encourage a friendly community of people. I also play games with others on Xbox and help out new gamers by making them feel welcome or sharing some personal tips about Xbox. One great thing about the program is that it gives me access to things to help push positive things in the community such as our video gallery. In the video gallery, I can either upload or review views others submit and determine if they would be great to be posted on the Xbox Youtube channel.
During my Junior and Senior year of high school, I participated in a club called Link Crew, and what we do is help newer students and organize events for them. During the summer, we would help make posters, organize nametags, plan out how orientation would go, and called some of the incoming freshmen to let them know about orientation. We would take the students around the building and give them a tour while also making them feel welcome by playing a few games such as the name game. It helped them make a few new friends to start high school with and really impacted how they felt about the transition from middle to high school. Another thing we do during the year is give presentations to the freshmen about different subjects such as certain school policies and PSAs. We also walked them through MVP training.
will be added soon.
While I was a Lunch Leader, I had also been volunteering as an Office Leader, during that job I would sit at the front desk and ask people to sign in while also pushing the button to unlock the door into the office when people rang the doorbell. I would also run out recyling and sometimes garbages, or I would have to sort papers and documents in my free time. Usually when a new kid would come to our school or we had elementary children in the building, my job would be to give that person a tour, or if someone's parent had needed to pull them out of school, I would run the pass to their classroom.
When I attended Hoover Middle School, I had volunteered to be a Lunch Leader. I had started during 7th grade and our job was mainly wiping off tables, moving them to the sides of the room, and last but not least, digging trays out of the garbage that kids would throw. We would also be in-charge of taking out the trash when it got full or sweeping and mopping the floor depending on how bad it was. We always got the cafeteria ready for the janitor to clean.

Alappuzha Travel Guide
Zone: South
Headquarters: Alappuzha
The name Alappuzha is derived from the geographical position and physical features of the place. It means the land between the sea and network of rivers flowing into it.
Affectionately nicknamed the 'Venice of the East' by travellers from across the world, Alappuzha is a district of immense natural beauty. Embraced by the Arabian Sea in the west and a network of lakes, lagoons and freshwater rivers criss-crossing it, this backwater country is home toa vibrant animal and avian life. By virtue of its proximity to the sea, the town has always carved out an exclusive place for itself in the maritime history of Kerala.
Best Places to Visit in Alleppey
1. Alleppey Beach
Beach goers on a Kerala trip will surely fall in love with this stunning beach in Alappuzha! Quiet, calm, serene, and pleasant, Alleppey Beach is known for its favourable ambience, tepic sands, and a myriad list of beach activities. If luck favours, visitors can also enjoy dolphin sighting while in Alleppey Beach.
2. Krishnapuram Palace
An 18th century palace, Krishnapuram Palace was built during the reign of MarthandaVarma, and is a major landmark in Alleppey. Built in typical Kerala architecture, this 2-storeyed palace is also the abode of the largest mural paintings in God’s Own Country; the painting is known as ‘GajendraMoksham’ and measures around 14x11ft.
3. Vembanad Lake

Robert Pattinson Planned On Quitting Acting & The Thought Of It Is Breaking Our Hearts!
Robert Pattinson has worked in hit films like Twilight and Harry Porter
by IANSActor Robert Pattinson says he nearly quit acting before he starred in “Twilight” because his audition for the movie went so badly.
“It was the scene when (Edward) had a guitar … my agent was like, ‘Take your guitar into the audition.’ I just walked in and they were like, ‘Oh. You brought a guitar.  This is the worst decision I ever made’. I was saying no and they were like, ‘You just brought a guitar just to hold it? Why did you bring a guitar in?’ My entire confidence just s**t the bed,” Robert Pattinson said in the podcast HFPA.
Robert Pattinson said, “The audition was one of the worst auditions I did in my whole life. I remember calling my parents and saying, ‘I’m done, I can’t torture myself anymore,’ and the next day I got a ‘Twilight’ audition.”
Robert Pattinson also worked on another famous movie series, Harry Potter, and he loved the environment on set as it was “very friendly family” and everyone got along well, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
“It was a really nice environment on Harry Potter. Even compared to the movies I’ve done since, it was very protective. The way the kids were treated … In Harry Potter, they were at school and they were kind of doing work at the same time … It felt like a very friendly family environment.”

Former Galole MP Tola Kofa Dies At Kenyatta Hospital
by Mercy AumaAn assistant minister who worked during President Daniel Moi’s tenure has passed away at the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) after a long term illness.
Tola Kofa, a former member of parliament for Galole passed on at 75 years after having been admitted at the KNH for about a week.
According to his son, Patrick Mgawa, the former legislator had been ailing for a period of time before it got worse and had to be admitted for one week.
Tofa served as an MP for 15 years and was the assistant minister for water between 1998 and 2002, under Moi’s tenure.

In 2010, the former legislator made an astounding move by applying for a bursary to help him fund his masters degree education that he claimed he had not completed.
He was among the applicants from Tana River District who sought funding from the Galole Constituency Development Fund.
Apparently, he turned up for an interview with his wife and two children, and when asked why he needed funding yet he owed properties, he was unable to explain.

He has been at loggerheads with several authority officials both during his time as MP and even after.
An incident in 2003 for instance, a water pump valued to be Sh700,000 was found at his premises after it had been reported missing from the Ministry of Water Development.
He was under fire, with the then police Chief Danson Mutun stating that it had been given to the legislator as a constituency public property but instead he opted to take it to his home.

I've been meaning to blog these... over the next couple of months I'll be out and about, speaking at a few events:
- Telco 2.0 on the 28/29 April, where I'll be presenting a comparison of what it's like to launch products on various platforms and through operator portals and app stores;
- The mighty LIFT2010 on 5-7 May, where I'm running our Mobile Mountains workshop as part of the open programme - the sign up is here if you're interested in attending;
- Eduserv Symposium on 13th May, where I'll be giving a general introduction to developing for mobile: what's different about the mobile value chain vs fixed-internet, approaches to design and development, and a few trends we've seen here;
- At M-Publishing in June, I shall be flying the flag for free content in a debate with Stephen Pinches of the Financial Times;
All that, and I'll be out and about at these fine events too:
- UXCampLondon tomorrow, where I think I'll try to paper over a lack of preparedness by running a discussion session;
- Geek'n'Rolla this coming Tuesday, a startup-focused event which was excellent last year;
- Brighton Festival Hack Day, which looks low-key, but the sentiment is a good one. Would love to see Brighton Council do a similar event...
- A little further out but worth marking in the diary: Mobile 2.0 Europe on June 16-17, which was absolutely top last year and dovetails all-too-conveniently with Sonar...

Independent restaurants and bars that have not joined food delivery platforms are among the worst hit. To help our F&B businesses who are feeling both the financial and emotional strain of this unprecedented crisis, we decided to kickstart FindFood.SG.
FindFood.SG is a platform that helps consumers discover food options from independent restaurants and bars islandwide and not on food delivery platforms. You can search for both delivery and pickup options and get connected to the F&B businesses directly via their preferred mode of communication.
There is no cost to use FindFood.SG and to list on the platform.
We are so delighted that the larger Singapore community is coming together to save our F&B business. Some of these successful initiatives have gathered more than tens of thousands of members!
Each of these initiatives have their own unique selling point. Social media groups are a great way to build a community but might make searching a little harder. FindFood.SG aims to solve the discovery process by making it easy to search across all F&B businesses listed and filter them to your location and preferences.
The food delivery platform model does not work for all F&B businesses; many F&B businesses are still not on food delivery platforms for a variety of reasons including cost and time to set up.
This is where FindFood.SG comes in. We help F&B businesses who do not wish to get on the food delivery platforms to be discovered.
Please also note that we do not handle ordering or delivery options on behalf of the F&B businesses. FindFood.SG connects consumers and F&B businesses directly, so F&B businesses keep 100% of the sale they make. On top of that, FindFood.SG is completely free to use for both consumers and the F&B businesses.
Join Michel, Ivan, and Sharon for a crash course on how to best adapt your F&B business to this rapidly changing environment, as they tackle financial, operational, digital, and marketing issues with you. The course is by SMU Academy and funded by SkillsFuture Singapore. There is no silver bullet to survive through this crisis but we can collectively make the best out of the situation.

This documentation describes version V1.1 (1997/06/23) of the source and has been tested (amongst others) against ntpd3-5.90 on Solaris-1 (SunOS 4.1.3_U1 on an SS1 serving as a router and firewall) and against ntpd3-5.90 on Solaris-2.5 (on a SS1+ and TurboSPARC 170MHz). This code will probably work, and show increased stability, reduced jitter and more efficiency (fewer context switches) with the tty_clk discipline/STREAMS module installed, but this has not been tested. For a to-do list see the comments at the start of the code.
This code has been significantly slimmed down since the V1.0 version, roughly halving the memory footprint of its code and data.
This driver is designed to allow the unit to run from batteries as designed, for something approaching the 2.5 years expected in the usual stand-alone mode, but no battery-life measurements have been taken.
Much of this code is originally from the other refclock driver files with thanks. The code was originally made to work with the clock by Derek Mulcahy, with modifications by Damon Hart-Davis. Thanks also to Lyndon David for some of the specifications of the clock.
There is support for a Tcl/Tk monitor written by Derek Mulcahy that examines the output stats; see the ARC Rugby MSF Receiver page for more details and the code.
Look at the notes at the start of the code for further information; some of the more important details follow.
The driver interrogates the clock at each poll (ie every 64s by default) for a timestamp. The clock responds at the start of the next second (with the start bit of the first byte being on-time). The time is in `local' format, including the daylight savings adjustment when it is in effect. The driver code converts the time back to UTC.
The clock claims to be accurate to within about 20ms of the MSF-broadcast time, and given the low data transmission speed from clock to host, and the fact that the clock is not in continuous sync with MSF, it seems sensible to set the `precision' of this clock to -5 or -4, -4 being used in this code, which builds in a reported dispersion of over 63ms (ie says ``This clock is not very good.''). You can improve the reported precision to -4 (and thus reduce the base dispersion to about 31ms) by setting the fudge flag3 to 1.
Even a busy and slow IP link can yield lower dispersions than this from polls of primary time servers on the Internet, which reinforces the idea that this clock should be used as a backup in case of problems with such an IP link, or in the unfortunate event of failure of more accurate sources such as GPS.
By default this clock reports itself to be at stratum 2 rather than the usual stratum 0 for a refclock, because it is not really suited to be used as other than a backup source. The stratum reported can be changed with the fudge directive to be whatever you like. After careful monitoring of your clock, and appropriate choice of the time1 fudge factor to remove systematic errors in the clock's reported time, you might fudge the clock to stratum 1 to allow a stratum-2 secondary server to sync to it.
The driver code arranges to resync the clock to MSF at intervals of a little less than an hour (deliberately avoiding the same time each hour to avoid any systematic problems with the signal or host). Whilst resyncing, the driver supplements the normal polls for time from the clock with polls for the reception signal quality reported by the clock. If the signal quality is too low (0--2 out of a range of 0--5), we chose not to trust the clock until the next resync (which we bring forward by about half an hour). If we don't catch the resync, and so don't know the signal quality, we do trust the clock (because this would generally be when the signal is very good and a resync happens quickly), but we still bring the next resync forward and reduce the reported precision (and thus increase reported dispersion).
If we force resyncs to MSF too often we will needlessly exhaust the batteries the unit runs from. During clock resync this driver tries to take enough time samples to avoid ntpd losing sync in case this clock is the current peer. By default the clock would only resync to MSF about once per day, which would almost certainly not be acceptable for NTP purposes.
The driver does not force an immediate resync of the clock to MSF when it starts up to avoid excessive battery drain in case ntpd is going to be repeatedly restarted for any reason, and also to allow enough samples of the clock to be taken for ntpd to sync immediately to this clock (and not remain unsynchronised or to sync briefly to another configured peer, only to hop back in a few poll times, causing unnecessary disturbance). This behaviour should not cause problems because the driver will not accept the timestamps from the clock if the status flag delivered with the time code indicates that the last resync attempt was unsuccessful, so the initial timestamps will be close to reality, even if with up to a day's clock drift in the worst case (the clock by default resyncs to MSF once per day).
The clock has a peculiar RS232 arrangement where the transmit lines are powered from the receive lines, presumably to minimise battery drain. This arrangement has two consequences:
Three commands are sent to the clock by this driver. Each command consists of a single letter (of which only the bottom four bits are significant), followed by a CR (ASCII 13). Each character sent to the clock should be followed by a delay to allow the unit to echo the character, and then by a further 10ms. Following the echo of the command string, there may be a response (ie in the cae of the g and o commands below), which in the case of the o command may be delayed by up to 1 second so as the start bit of the first byte of the response can arrive on time. The commands and their responses are:
# hostname(n) means we expect (n) to be the stratum at which hostname runs. #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # SYNCHRONISATION PARTNERS # ======================== # Our betters... server <IP_ADDRESS> # ARCRON MSF radio clock(1). # Fudge stratum and other features as required. # ADJUST time1 VALUE FOR YOUR HOST, CLOCK AND LOCATION! fudge <IP_ADDRESS> stratum 1 time1 0.016 flag3 1 flag4 1 peer <IP_ADDRESS> # tick(1--2). peer <IP_ADDRESS> # tock(3), boot/NFS server. # This shouldn't get swept away unless left untouched for a long time. driftfile /var/tmp/ntp.drift #------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # RESTRICTIONS # ============ # By default, don't trust and don't allow modifications. Ignore in fact. restrict default ignore notrust nomodify # Allow others in our subnet to check us out... restrict <IP_ADDRESS> mask <IP_ADDRESS> nomodify notrust # Trust our peers for time. Don't trust others in case they are insane. restrict <IP_ADDRESS> nomodify restrict <IP_ADDRESS> nomodify restrict <IP_ADDRESS> nomodify # Allow anything from the local host. restrict <IP_ADDRESS>There are a few #defines in the code that you might wish to play with:
Without this defined (and without ARCRON_MULTIPLE_SAMPLES below) a typical set of offsets reported and used to drive the clock-filter algorithm is (oldest last):
filtoffset= -4.32 -34.82 -0.78 0.89 2.76 4.58 -3.92 -2.17Look at that spike!
With this defined a typical set of offsets is:
filtoffset= -7.06 -7.06 -2.91 -2.91 -2.91 -1.27 -9.54 -6.70with the repeated values being some evidence of outlyers being discarded.
Each resync and result (plus gaining or losing MSF sync) is logged to the system log at level LOG_NOTICE; note that each resync drains the unit's batteries, so the syslog entry seems justified.
Syslog entries are of the form:
May 10 10:15:24 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: unit 0: sending resync command May 10 10:17:32 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: sync finished, signal quality 5: OK, will use clock May 10 11:13:01 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: unit 0: sending resync command May 10 11:14:06 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: sync finished, signal quality -1: UNKNOWN, will use clock anyway May 10 11:41:49 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: unit 0: sending resync command May 10 11:43:57 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: sync finished, signal quality 5: OK, will use clock May 10 12:39:26 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: unit 0: sending resync command May 10 12:41:34 oolong ntpd[615]: ARCRON: sync finished, signal quality 3: OK, will use clock


To become a Necromancer your level must be over 40 and you must collect the Mark of the Scholar, the Mark of Trust, and the Mark of Witchcraft.
I see that you have all the marks, but you still require more training. Return when you have advanced your skill level and I will change your occupation to Necromancer.

So, you’ve got a new acts_as_chunky_bacon
mixin you want to add to ActiveRecord, but those villianous core team members have turned you down and called you unworthy. What other options do you have? People need this mixin. You understand that in Ruby, things ought to act like chunky bacon.
It used to be (in that dim age before the 2005 RubyConf) that your only recourse was to package the thing up and tell people to go through the hassle of putting your mixin somewhere, adding it to their load-path, and requiring the file.
No more! Edge Rails now sports a very-simple-but-effective plugin system. You, as the author, can now give someone a zip file and tell them to simply uncompress it into their vendor/plugins
directory—and that’s it. No more configuration required by the user.
All you, as the author, need to do is create a project with the following directory structure:
acts_as_chunky_bacon/ acts_as_chunky_bacon/init.rb acts_as_chunky_bacon/lib acts_as_chunky_bacon/lib/acts_as_chunky_bacon.rb
When the application starts, the lib
directory will be automatically added to the load path, and the init.rb
automatically loaded. (Either may be absent.) The init.rb
just needs to do something like the following:
ActiveRecord::Base.send :include, ActsAsChunkyBacon
What does this mean? It means that consumers of your plugin only need to drop your project in their vendor/plugins
directory, and then start applying it to their own model objects:
class PoignantGuide < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_chunky_bacon :from => "chapter 3" ... end
Currently, we at 37signals are using this plugin system to share code between our various applications. We are using it for things like email notification on errors, or common before_filter
’s, or our web service infrastructure that allows Backpack and Basecamp to integrate with Writeboard.
I really like this new plugin system. It probably isn’t perfect, yet—I’m sure people will find ways to make it even handier—but it really makes it a lot easier to share code. Hopefully it will also make it easier for the Rails core team to say “no” to many proposed new features, since many of them can now be more easily shared as third-party additions.


| Home > Documentation > Creating deployment plans > Creating deployment plans for applications > Naming (JNDI) > EJB naming |
The naming space xmlns:nam="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/naming-1.2"
defines following tags used to reference EJB resources in a deployment plan.
Reference Type | Tags | Usage |
|---|---|---|
EJB reference | <nam:ejb-ref/> | Reference EJB remote interface |
EJB reference | <nam:ejb-loc-ref/> | Reference EJB local interface |
For example, a EJB session bean is defined in its ejb-jar.xml:
and in its openejb-jar.xml:
To reference this session bean in a Java EE application, you first have to define the dependency on this bean and then use the <ejb-ref> or <ejb-local-ref> element to map a reference to the EJB's home interface.
You can use the <ejb-ref> element in your deployment plan to map a reference to an EJB's remote home interface.
The <ref-name> element is the name of the remote home interface used in your module. The JNDI name used for this example will be java:/comp/env/ejb/SessionBean
and it should map to the ejb-ref-name
provided in the Java EE deployment descriptor:
Now you can reference the EJB in the application by the JNDI name java:comp/env/ejb/SessionBean
.
You can use the <ejb-local-ref> element in your deployment plan to map a reference to an EJB's local home interface.
The <ref-name> element is the name of the local home interface used in your module. The JNDI name used for this example will be java:/comp/env/ejb/SessionBean
and it should map to the ejb-ref-name
provided in the Java EE deployment descriptor:
Now you can reference the EJB in the application by the JNDI name java:comp/env/ejb/SessionBean
.
Session beans and entity beans will be bound automatically into a global JNDI context. An EJB's JNDI name is in the following format:
{deploymentId}{interfaceType.annotationName}
You can customize the global JNDI name. See OpenEJB JNDI names for more details about JNDI name formatting.

Vampires (1998, USA, Largo Entertainment, 103 min.) director/composer: John Carpenter script: John Carpenter, Don Jacobi, Dan Mazur actors: James Woods, Daniel Baldwin, Sheryl Lee, Thomas Ian Griffith, Mamilian Schell rating: >= 12 years (in France) some people should be warned that the movie contains: extreme violence, some nudity, foul language, a delightful absence of Hollywood-type morals or political correctness.
At the moment, John Carpenter's latest movie can only be seen in France, where it did good business (esp. considering it's a horror movie). USA release is planned for the autumn. For interested tourists: keep in mind that the French release is dubbed in French. I don't know if the movie is also screened with subtitles. Luckily, my French was good enough so I only didn't fully get some subtleties of Jack's Crow swearing... I also believe that the movie is at the end of its career in France.
For those who haven't heard about it: here follows a very short and relatively spoiler-free synopsis of the intro: Jack Crow (James Woods) and his team are full-time, Vatican-endorsed vampire hunters. Team Crow employs drastic measures, to say the least. They manage to seriously anger the "original vampire" Valek (an impressive Griffith) and now the hunters become the hunted...
John Carpenter is back. Remember those delicious shivers you experienced during his best movies? Remember the impeccable wide-screen compositions, the trademarked thumping soundtrack? The much-copied "spring-loaded-cat" shocks? The non-conformist anti-heroes with the snarling one-liners? This movie delivers it all in spades. Carpenter needed a hit movie. It was hoped that his previous effort, Escape from LA, would bring him back to the commercial top, but it wasn't the expected hit. Perhaps this was only to be expected, how could a public that adored the extremely populist "Independence Day" appreciate such a cynical take on America? Before EFLA, there was "Memoirs of an invisible man" (which I believe is underrated), "In the mouth of madness" (which had a good story, but was not really scary) and the remake of "Village of the damned" (somewhat impersonal, but like most of JC's movies, it seems to get better with each passing year). I believe that all these movies made some money world-wide, but we have to go back to "They Live" (1998) for Carpenter's last real commercial success. Commercial success is not necessarily a synonym for artistic success (just reconsider Independence yawn), but a hit now and then typically means easier funding for new projects. This movie might just be it.
You can expect Carpenter doing things differently. A vampire-movie is a classic, strongly coded style, but Carpenter injects it with new blood, by filming it as a contemporary western. Many Carpenter movies have some Western-type situations or characters, but it was never this obvious. You can notice it in the group of Team Crow (a wild bunch), the dusty southern landscapes, the music... I believe it is an appealing, refreshing mix (as far as I know, only Near Dark has more or less the same atmosphere) and I think the movie will benefit from strong word-of-mouth. Don't expect a soft horror movie. Vampires is a raw and brutal movie. The vampires themselves act more like leopards (very quick, beastly, deadly) than like classic vampires.
Carpenter's style has evolved. I always admired the relatively calm and pure but elaborate filming style of his earlier work. Alas, it seems that this very classic filming style is out of fashion. The style of Vampires is still visibly Carpenter (this is one of the very few directors who have a recognisable style) but on the whole it's "faster" than before. The global effect is more like the style of Desperado. More camera's are used and editing is generally faster than before (certainly during action scenes), but we're not talking 3-cuts-per-second Michael Bay style here. Well, the Reborn Carpenter Style works. It is also interesting to note that an extreme carnage in a motel is edited with fades. You would expect fast cuts (fades seem like "nicer" transitions) but it works. In this case I thought it gives a more mythical aura to the action.
Considering actors: James Woods truly shines. You really believe he's vampire hunter Jack Crow. He is not a likeable man, but then Snake Plissken or the killer from Assault (forgot the name) weren't nice either. These are truly "Carpenterian" heroes (lone, cynical, anarchist), and the director has said he sees them as idealised projections of himself. If that's true, better not mess around with this guy... It must also be said that Crow's attitude to women is not politically correct. Jack Crow won't have an Erica Jong novel in his bookcase... Daniel Baldwin is not special at all. Competent, nothing more. This could have been a nice role for Kurt Russel. It is a pity we don't see Sheryl Lee more often on the screen: she's a good actress (though her dialogue is minimal here) and of course, rather pleasing on the eye. But the big surprise of the movie is Thomas Ian Griffith. I didn't know him, but it seems he played in some B-grade action movies. His Valek is a truly magnificent, powerful and scary vampire. He has the charisma of Christopher Lee. The fact that he is really tall, makes him seem even more supernatural and invincible. What a change compared to Coppola's wimp Dracula!
Some other nice touches: the music has evolved, too: there are some typical Carpenter rhythms but they are held together with guitar sounds which reminded me of Ry Cooder (okay, not as good as Cooder). All in all, it seemed like one of JC's better soundtracks, and I am curious if it will also work as stand-alone music. And considering the story: the way the church is tied-in to the vampire myth is refreshing and there's some nice use of telepathy (also unexpected in a vampire movie). The inventive way the vampires are killed produces some extreme images. Perhaps it works so well because it isn't played for laughs (unlike From Dusk Till Dawn, for example). You'll see...
Perhaps you are thinking: "Okay, but what about cardboard characters? Or an underdeveloped script?" Well, since you insist, I have to explain it... This movie deals with professionals. They don't start some Freudian whining when something bad happens. They act. The characters are defined by their actions, less by their dialogue. Therefore, the bit of love-interest isn't drenched in Titanic-like romanticism. Vampires just wants to be creepy. The rest is superficial. By concentrating fully on the essential elements of what makes a good horror film, it succeeds. You can actually apply this reasoning on most of Carpenter's movies.
Is everything in the movie that excellent? Sadly, I have to make one remark: it really feels like the remaining budget suddenly evaporated while the ending was being filmed. It should have been a big, nail-biting finale. What we get to see is reasonably suspenseful in its build-up but like I said, it seems the moviemakers ran out of money. I don't want to give away too many spoilers, I think you will notice it yourself. Some running people, some shots are heard (not seen). It's all over rather quickly. I believe Carpenter wanted to save it with quick editing. Now, if Stanley Kubrick is allowed to film for 15 months and is recently even doing re-shoots for a month, perhaps it would be nice to flesh out the ending of Vampires somewhat before the definitive USA release. Otherwise, the movie is very enjoyable and there's a constant tension. The motel scene will be classic among horror fans. If I compare the movie to Prince of Darkness, Carpenter's last truly excellent horror movie, Vampires scores less on the edge-of-the-seat factor, perhaps because POD was much more claustrophobic. Or perhaps also because of the change in filming style.
Whatever, Vampires is suspenseful and there's a lot of (gory) action. Highly recommended for genre lovers who are tired of standard horror-movies, or amateurs of wayward but skilled film-making in general.
Score: I think it is in Carpenter's top 5. You can convert this to your own units of appreciation.

OK so @Amelia Livingston just pointed out to me that in algebra/ring.lean
we have the following insanity:
instance [semiring α] : semiring (with_zero α) := ...
semiring
extends add_comm_monoid
so a semiring already has a zero. Adding another zero is something which is I guess logically possible, but at the same time is surely "always a mistake". Should this instance be removed though?
but it really is a semiring...?
Yes!
If you have an add_semigroup and you add a zero, you get an add_monoid
Now apply when the add_semigroup was already an add_monoid
it's the (co)unit
Mathlib still compiles if the instance is deleted. Why would we ever want this instance?
Yes, I think we want to get rid of an instance like that.
Why would we want to remove it? It's the same as the situation with monoidifying a semigroup that happens to already be a monoid
Because every instance makes life a bit slower, and this instance will never be used so cannot do good and might do harm
We could have a more accurate instance there but we would need a class for "semiring without zero"
but I disagree with the claim that the instance is "wrong"
if you actually have a with_zero and it actually has a semiring structure, I don't see how it could be anything but this one
I guess I'm arguing that it's "wrong" in the sense that if something has a zero then it's very hard to imagine a good reason for adding another one. With the semigroup to monoid example the semiring might have a 1 but it might not. Here the semiring is guaranteed to already have a zero, and you are adding another one.
The fact that the instance is not used in mathlib is evidence that the instance is useless
The instance isn't used because no one cares about the theory of semirings
But could it be the case that it leads type class inference the wrong way sometimes? If so then it should go
The instance isn't used because no one cares about the theory of semirings
I think this is too weak. People care about the theory of rings, and a semiring is a ring, but the instance isn't used anyway. The point is that people don't care about adding 0 to something which already has a 0.
I don't disagree with this line of argument though. It shouldn't affect too much, unless you are inferring things on with_zero a lot - most types are not of the form with_zero A
so it shouldn't lead typeclass significantly astray
It would be difficult and probably inadvisable to define a type operator that only adds a zero if there isn't already one there
That is not the case for this instance though!
It would be very easy to modify this instance so that it only added a zero if there isn't one already there.
it's easier to reason about an operator that always adds exactly one new element
By deleting it.
The reason this instance exists is because it's completing the cartesian product of all concepts in mathlib interacting with all others
We think with_zero A
is a useful operator, hence it exists, hence we need all applicable instances because users shouldn't need to define those themselves
That would be the case if we were dealing with an object which was an add_comm_semigroup and a monoid, but that's not what a semiring is.
What could concievably be useful is adding a zero to pnat, but I don't know what kind of an object pnat is. It's not a semiring :-/
Actually you need a distrib add_comm_semigroup monoid
Like pnat!
demisemiring

lab04 : Binary Search Tree
| num | ready? | description | assigned | due |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| lab04 | false | Binary Search Tree | Tue 05/08 11:00AM | Mon 05/21 11:59PM |
Goals for this lab
By the time you have completed this lab, you should be able to
- Know how to navigate a binary tree data structure
- Implement recursive functions for binary trees
- Implement binary search tree functions
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1: Create a git repo and get the starter code
First get together with your lab partner. If your regular partner is more than 5 minutes late, let your mentor know.
Select a pilot, log into the CSIL machines.
Step 1a: Create a git repo, add your partner as collaborator
-
Create a repo for this lab on the pilot’s github account (just like you did in lab00): To do this, open a browser and navigate to www.github.com. Log into the pilot’s github account. From the drop down menu on the left, select our class organization: ucsb-cs24-w18 and proceed to create a new repo. You may refer to the instructions in lab00. Follow this naming convention: If your github username is jgaucho and your partner’s is alily, your should name your repo lab08_agaucho_alily (usernames appear in alphabetical order). Also you must set the visibity of your repo to be ‘PRIVATE’ when creating it. We will not repeat these instructions in subsequent labs.
-
The pilot should add the navigator as a collaborator on github, and the navigator should accept the request to join the repo. See instructions in previous labs
Step 1b: Clone your gitrepo and get the starter code
- Clone your repo in your cs24 directory on CSIL. If your repo is called lab04_jgaucho_alily, type the following commands:
cd ~/cs24
git clone git@github.com:ucsb-cs24-s18/lab04_jgaucho_alily.git
Now navigate to your starter-code directory (cloned in a previous lab) and do a git pull to get the latest version of the code
cd ~/cs24/cs24-s18-starter-code/
git pull
cd ~/cs24/lab04_jgauch_alily/
There are four required files to copy from the class account this week. Get them all at once:
Verify you got all the files and try to compile them as follows:
-bash-4.3$ ls
intbst.cpp intbst.h Makefile testbst.cpp
-bash-4.3$ make
g++ -std=c++11 -o testbst testbst.cpp intbst.cpp
A binary search tree class for integers, class IntBST is defined in intbst.h - please study this file for details of the class’s features:
The constructor, destructor, insert method and pre-order print method are already implemented in intbst.cpp. Notice the insert method will return false to indicate an attempt to insert a duplicate value; otherwise it inserts the value and returns true. In Step 3, you will implement the other two print methods, in-order and post-order. Then in Step 4 you will implement the sum, count and contains methods. The binary tree node structure is defined in the private area. The only instance variable is a node pointer, to point at the root node of the tree or at 0 if the tree is empty. Several utility functions are declared in the private area too. These functions can be recursive (by virtue of their Node* parameters), and the public methods may choose to use them or not. See how the destructor uses clear, for example, and the insert method uses the overloaded version of insert, each by passing the root pointer to the corresponding utility function.
Step 3: Implement in-order and post-order binary tree printing
You should be able to run testbst now (assuming you compiled it in Step 2): ``` -bash-4.3$ ./testbst Choice of tests: 0. all tests 1. just printInOrder 2. just printPostOrder 3. just sum 4. just count 5. just contains Enter choice: 0 BST: pre-order: 64 8 4 32 16 128 512 256 in-order: post-order: sum: 0 count: 0 contains 16? N contains 128? N contains 17? N contains 512? N Empty BST: pre-order: in-order: post-order: sum: 0 count: 0 contains 16? N
Note that just the pre-order print is complete (and the sum, count and contains methods aren't working either).
Use an editor (e.g., emacs) to make the following changes to intbst.cpp - do not change any of the other files.
Fix the comment at the top to show your name(s) and the date.
Scroll to the print functions (starting line 60). See how the public method just passes the root pointer to the private function in each case. Implement the private functions, printInOrder and printPostOrder.
Save, and then test your print implementations: compile and execute testbst again, choosing either all tests or just one of your print functions to test.
Here are the correct results (abbreviated to show just the print orders):
BST:
pre-order: 64 8 4 32 16 128 512 256
in-order: 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512
post-order: 4 16 32 8 256 512 128 64
By the way, you should be able to draw the tree now, both by tracing the order of the inserts, or by interpreting the three orders above. Take a minute to try that now on a piece of scratch paper. Show your drawing to your mentor to get it checked.
# Step 4: Implement three more binary search tree functions
First: switch roles between pilot and navigator if you did not already do that.
You may do these tasks in any order. Check the results of each part as you complete it.
Implement the helper function for sum() - notice the public method just returns the result of the helper function. We suggest you use recursion to do so. Think about these questions before starting to code: What's the base case? What should be returned in the base case? What should be returned in the general (recursive) case?
Implement the helper function for count() - this is very similar to the sum() function.
Implement the public contains method, either recursively or iteratively - both are about the same level of difficulty in this case. If you decide to use recursion, then you must also implement and use the overloaded private contains function declared in intbst.h. You won't need the utility function to solve the problem iteratively. In either case, remember the tree is a binary search tree, and so your solution should run in O(log n) time.
Here are the results of all tests from our solution - you should verify that your results match:
BST: pre-order: 64 8 4 32 16 128 512 256 in-order: 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 post-order: 4 16 32 8 256 512 128 64 sum: 1020 count: 8 contains 16? Y contains 128? Y contains 17? N contains 512? Y Empty BST: pre-order: in-order: post-order: sum: 0 count: 0 contains 16? N ```
Be aware, however, that more rigorous testing will be done when your work is submitted (a different program is used for testing your functions, some with random data).
Step 5: Submit your revised intbst.cpp
Submit Lab08 at https://submit.cs.ucsb.edu/, or use the following command from a CS terminal:
~submit/submit -p 931 intbst.cpp
If you are working with a partner, be sure that both partners’ names are in a comment at the top of the source code files, and be sure to properly form a group for this project in the submit.cs system.
50/50 is a perfect score.
Evaluation and Grading
Each student must accomplish the following to earn full credit [50 total points] for this lab:
-
[50 points] intbst.cpp is saved, it has your name(s) in a comment at the top, it compiles and executes properly, and scores 50/50 on the submit.cs system tests.
-
[0 to 50 points, at the TA’s discretion] The student arrived on time to their lab session, and worked diligently on CS24-related material until dismissed, git repo made available on github and committed and pushed code to github frequently
Optional Extra Challenge
Work with copies of intbst.h, intbst.cpp and testbst.cpp in attempting these challenges. Maybe just create a subdirectory named challenge inside your git directory, and then copy the current versions of these files into there.
If you used recursion to implement the contains method, then try it again using iteration instead. Or if you solved this problem iteratively in the first place, then solve it recursively now. You should know how to do it both ways. More challenging: uncomment the remove method (and its helper functions if necessary) in intbst.h, implement it in intbst.cpp, and add tests for it in testbst.cpp. We suggest you solve the problem recursively using this remove algorithm, but you may try to solve it iteratively if you prefer. Test it thoroughly by editing testbst.cpp, and consider inserting more nodes if necessary. Be sure to test all situations (delete leaves, delete nodes with just a left child or just a right child, and delete nodes with two children). Generalize class IntBST to work for other data types. Think about how you might do that, then devise a plan and try to make all the necessary changes to the code. Test it with strings, for example.

Alfresco and LDAP sync lock my Admin no more!
On the custom Alfresco Enterprise project I'm working we use LDAP sync to import users from a Novell eDirectory server[1]. Now, it happened from time to time that the user Alfresco binds itself with, i.e. the LDAP admin user, got locked in eDirectory as a "Intrusion prevention" mechanism or something like that.
The LDAP sysadmin said we were guilty of providing wrong credentials too many times when logging in. Which is weird, since most of the time the LDAP sync went well, which meant that either that sysadmin was seldom changing back and forth the Admin credentials or something Evil™ was going on under the hood. I personally feared for the latter, but let the issue wait a bit, since staging environments seemed to work just fine.
Then, when my dev team grew up with three more people, the issue worsened terribly, with the admin account locked almost any hour. I really started to get bothered by it, and did some investigations.
It turned out, it was all working "by design", in the sense that yes, our Alfresco was providing wrong credentials and yes, the admin account was properly configured. This is how it went.
To be 100% sure our Alfresco configuration was correct, apart from checking every configuration file from here to eternity, I wanted to sniff the network connection to the LDAP server. When networked systems fail to work together, I always feel like I need raw network data.
Made a socat tunnel[2] to look at data BEFORE it entered the encrypted VPN connection, started Alfresco and waited. And, eventually, got it: I expected one bind connection request, I got more. Plus, the first three or four attempts were using almost random user accounts, while the last showed the known LDAP admin user name and the wrong password! WTF?
A closer look at the Alfresco LDAP connector solved the mistery. Here's an excerpt from that code:
// Correct principal invalid password
env = new Hashtable(initialDirContextEnvironment.size());
env.putAll(initialDirContextEnvironment);
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "sdasdasdasdasd123123123");
try
{
new InitialDirContext(env);
throw new AuthenticationException(
"The ldap server at "
+ env.get(Context.PROVIDER_URL)
+ " falls back to use anonymous bind for a known principal if invalid security credentials are presented. This is not supported.");
}
That's it: Alfresco performs intentionally a number of connections that are supposed to fail, in order to infer some LDAP server configurations. The code presented here above is what made eDirectory lock the admin user: when our 5~6 developer environments started up, almost simultaneously at the morning, they performed too many wrong login attempts with the correct user name in a row before the first one eventually started using both the valid username and the correct password.
Setting up the allowed failed logins on eDirectory for the local testing environment, finally, solved this hidden and tedious issue. Still unclear if the Alfresco approach is really a smart one, due to some limitations of the LDAP handshake protocol I'm not aware of (well, I'm not that LDAP expert, after all) or such intentionally failing logins can/should be deleted/changed. What do you think?
[1] Here Alfresco happens to be MultiTenant, but still we are able to import users&groups from the Directory. Which has been my very first successful customization task as an Alfresco dev :)
[2] I'll eventually end up using socat for brushing my teeth, I guess

12 MONKEYS A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1996 James Berardinelli
RATING (0 TO 10): 8.4 Alternative Scale: ***1/2 out of ****
United States, 1995 Running Length: 2:09 MPAA Classification: R (Violence, profanity, nudity) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: 1.85:1
Cast: Bruce Willis, Madeleine Stowe, Brad Pitt, Christopher Plummer, David Morse Director: Terry Gilliam Producer: Charles Roven Screenplay: David Peoples and Janet Peoples, inspired by LA JETEE Cinematography: Roger Pratt Music: Paul Buckmaster U.S. Distributor: Universal Pictures
Any film that enters the realm of time travel does so at its own peril. You need look no further than last year's disastrous TIMECOP to understand why. Even James Cameron's TERMINATOR films treaded uncertainly through the minefield of paradoxes created by people venturing across the landscape of their own pasts. Thus, it's a refreshing to encounter a movie with a logical, intelligent approach to the dangers of zipping through time. While I won't claim that TWELVE MONKEYS has a decisive solution (how can anything be "decisive" when it's so firmly grounded in fantasy?), this approach makes sense, primarily because the time trippers here aren't trying to change the past (hence, wiping out reality), but are instead observing it to make a better future.
As it is, though, that future looks pretty bleak. On December 13, 1996, in Philadelphia, a malignant virus was let loose. Months later, 5 billion worldwide were dead. The few survivors were relegated to living underground in germ-free cellars and tunnels. On the surface, Earth was ruled by animals, insects, and vegetation. Mankind's legacy to the planet was its slowly-decaying cities. Witness one of TWELVE MONKEYS' early scenes, where bears and lions roam the deserted streets surrounding Philadelphia's snow-encrusted City Hall. It's a chilling, almost gothic, sequence that perfectly establishes the film's dark mood.
James Cole (Bruce Willis) is a 21st century convict living in a hellhole prison sometime in the 2020s. In order to reduce his sentence, or even obtain a full pardon, he "volunteers" to travel back in time to the 1990s to obtain a pure sample of the virus so that modern science can analyze it. Cole's trip takes him to 1990, where he is incarcerated in a Maryland asylum under the care of psychiatrist Kathryn Railly (Madeleine Stowe). One of Cole's fellow inmates is a totally off-the- wall nutcase named Jeffrey Goines (Brad Pitt), the son of renowned virologist Leland Goines (Christopher Plummer), a man whose name is featured prominently in future headlines.
TWELVE MONKEYS spans four time periods: 1917 in the trenches of World War One, 1990 in Maryland, 1996 in Maryland and Philadelphia, and the 2020s deep beneath Philadelphia. Like director Terry Gilliam's previous efforts BRAZIL and TIME BANDITS, this movie is saturated with atmosphere. The grim, gray film has two tones: somber and apocalyptic. Those in search of feel good escapism would do better to check out MR. HOLLAND'S OPUS.
For the most part, TWELVE MONKEYS is a maze of plot twists and turns. Yet, despite all the hiccuping through time, the story is neither exceptionally obtuse nor hard to follow. In fact, it's possible to make shrewd guesses about some of what's going to happen. Even a movie as complex as this doesn't want to lose its audience along the way -- at least not for too long.
One of the most unsettling aspects of TWELVE MONKEYS is that the story is told from the perspective of an unreliable narrator, even though it's ostensibly third-person point-of-view. There are multiple interpretations for the entire picture. It can be viewed as a somewhat atypical science fiction adventure, a black comedy/social commentary, the paranoid nightmares of a deluded madman, or some combination of all three. It's up to each individual to determine which is the most likely "truth", and this storyline ambiguity, more than anything else, makes TWELVE MONKEYS a consistently engaging motion picture.
Although the movie as a whole is open to interpretation, certain elements of Gilliam's film are straightforward. TWELVE MONKEYS uses a rapier-sharp wit to skewer both sides of the animal rights' movement, as well as the general conscience of society. The scenes of wild animals running amok might recall JUMANJI to some, but Gilliam's sense of style makes for more startling and lasting images. If anything, these sequences underline the ephemeral nature of humanity's supremacy on this planet.
While script, settings, and production design are obvious strengths of TWELVE MONKEYS, acting is not. Bruce Willis and Madeleine Stowe are adequate (and, at times, perhaps a little moreso), but neither does anything noteworthy here. Brad Pitt gives a deliciously over-the-top performance that, while derivative of Jack Nicholson's more memorable roles, is nevertheless enjoyable -- enjoyable, but not superlative. Supporting players like Christopher Plummer and David Morse (who outacted Nicholson in THE CROSSING GUARD) are hardly worth mentioning.
Those looking for a perfect winter double feature might consider matching TWELVE MONKEYS with Jeunet and Caro's THE CITY OF LOST CHILDREN. While each motion picture maintains its own identity, there are numerous similarities, the most obvious being a darkly twisted view of an apocalyptic future. The films compliment each other, and it's plain that the directors have precise visions that are effectively, and sometimes spectacularly, realized. Best of all, both movies challenge the mind -- something that too few productions can be accused of these days.
