A number of things have occurred since we last spoke.
I’ve moved from the Greatest City in the World
I’m a student again,
and also a research assistant at a pretty exciting place.
Most notably, my new home comes with the dreamiest kitchen you’ve ever met:
which means, I’ll be cooking a lot…
especially since it’s my favorite way of dealing with stress.
Ciao!


Introduction
We have already introduced basic python part. Now let's take a look at NumPy and Pandas, which allow us to do something with math and data.
NumPy is the core library for scientific computing in Python. It provides a high-performance multidimensional array object, and tools for working with these array. It also has strong integration with Pandas, which is another power tool for manipulating financial data.
We introduced the concept of class in the last chapter. A python package is essentially a executable python script and we use the class and methods in the package by importing the script.
import numpy as np
NumPy
Basic NumPy Arrays
A NumPy array is a grid of values, all of the same type, and is indexed by a tuple of nonnegative integers. Here we make an array by passing a list of Apple stock price:
price_list = [143.73, 145.83, 143.68, 144.02, 143.5, 142.62]
price_array = np.array(price_list)
print price_array, type(price_array)
[out]: [ 143.73 145.83 143.68 144.02 143.5 142.62]
Notice that the type of array is 'ndarray'. This means it's a multiple-dimensional array. If we pass np.array() a list of lists, it will create a 2-dimensional array.
Ar = np.array([[1,3],[2,4]])
print Ar, type
[out]: [[1 3]
[2 4]]
We can access the dimensions of an array using the array.shape property:
print Ar.shape
[out]: (2, 2)
If we create an 2-dimensional array, we call it a matrix, and each list is an vector. We can access to the list by index:
print Ar[0]
[out]: [1 3]
print Ar[1]
[out]: [2 4]
If we want to access to the matrix by column:
print 'the first column: ', Ar[:,0]
[out]: the first column: [1 2]
print 'the second column: ', Ar[:,1]
[out]: the second column: [3 4]
Array Functions
There are some very useful functions built in NumPy allow us to make calculations on an array or array elements.
print np.log(price_array)
[out]: [4.96793654 4.98244156 4.9675886 4.96995218 4.96633504 4.96018375]
This function apply logarithm to each element and return an array.
Some functions return a single value:
print np.mean(price_array)
[out]:<PHONE_NUMBER>67
print np.std(price_array)
[out]: 0.967379047852
print np.sum(price_array)
[out]: 863.38
print np.max(price_array)
[out]: 145.83
The above functions return the mean, standard deviation(we will introduce these concepts in the following tutorials) and the max value of the array.
Pandas Basic
Pandas is probably the most powerful tools for dealing with financial data. Here we start from the basic Pandas data structure.
import pandas as pd
Series
Series is a one-dimensional labeled array capable of holding any data type(integers, strings, float, python object, etc.) The axis labels are collectively refer to as the 'index'. The basic method to create a Series is to call Pandas.Series(data,index = index), where data can be a dictionary, an array or just a scalar value.
price = [143.73, 145.83, 143.68, 144.02, 143.5, 142.62]
s = pd.Series(price)
print s
0 143.73
1 145.83
2 143.68
3 144.02
4 143.50
5 142.62
We can create our customized index while creating the series:
s = pd.Series(price,index = ['a','b','c','d','e','f'])
print s
a 143.73
b 145.83
c 143.68
d 144.02
e 143.50
f 142.62
We can easily set or change the index of an existing arrar:
s.index = [6,5,4,3,2,1]
print s
6 143.73
5 145.83
4 143.68
3 144.02
2 143.50
1 142.62
Series is like a list in that we can slice it by index:
print s[1:]
print s[:-2]
5 145.83
4 143.68
3 144.02
2 143.50
1 142.62
dtype: float64
6 143.73
5 145.83
4 143.68
3 144.02
dtype: float64
Series is also like a fixed-size dictionary in that we can get and set values by index label:
print s[4]
s[4] = 0
print s
143.68
6 143.73
5 145.83
4 0.00
3 144.02
2 143.50
1 142.62
dtype: float64
Series can also have a name attribute, which will be used when we make up a Pandas DataFrame using several series.
s = pd.Series(price, name = 'Apple Price List')
print s
print s.name
0 143.73
1 145.83
2 143.68
3 144.02
4 143.50
5 142.62
Name: Apple Price List, dtype: float64
Apple Price List
Time Index
pandas has a built-in function specifically for creating date indices, Pandas.date_range(). We use the function here to create a new index for our series:
time_index = pd.date_range('2017-01-01',periods = len(s),freq = 'D')
print time_index
s.index = time_index
print s
DatetimeIndex(['2017-01-01', '2017-01-02', '2017-01-03', '2017-01-04',
'2017-01-05', '2017-01-06'],
dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq='D')
2017-01-01 143.73
2017-01-02 145.83
2017-01-03 143.68
2017-01-04 144.02
2017-01-05 143.50
2017-01-06 142.62
Freq: D, Name: Apple Price List, dtype: float64
Series are usually accessed using the iloc[] and loc[] methods. iloc[] is used to access elements by integer index, and loc[] is used to access the index of the series.
iloc[] is necessary when the index of a series are integers, take our previous defined series as example:
s.index = [6,5,4,3,2,1]
print s
print s[1]
6 143.73
5 145.83
4 143.68
3 144.02
2 143.50
1 142.62
Name: Apple Price List, dtype: float64
142.62
If we intended to take the second element of the series, we would make a mistake here, because the index are integers. In order to access to the element we want, we use iloc[] here:
print s.iloc[1]
145.83
While working with time-series financial data, we often use time as index. Pandas provide us a variety of methods to access the data by time index.
s.index = time_index
print s['2017-01-03']
143.68
We can even access to a range of dates:
print s['2017-01-02':'2017-01-05']
2017-01-02 145.83
2017-01-03 143.68
2017-01-04 144.02
2017-01-05 143.50
Freq: D, Name: Apple Price List, dtype: float64
Series[] provides us a very flexible way to index data. We can add any condition in the square brackets:
print s[s < np.mean(s)]
print s[(s > np.mean(s)) & (s < np.mean(s) + 1.64*np.std(s))]
2017-01-01 143.73
2017-01-03 143.68
2017-01-05 143.50
2017-01-06 142.62
Name: Apple Price List, dtype: float64
2017-01-04 144.02
Freq: D, Name: Apple Price List, dtype: float64
As demonstrated, we can use logical operators &, |, and ~(and, or, and not, respectively) to group multiple conditions.
Summary
Here we introduced NumPy, and basic part of Pandas. Now we are able to do some scientific computing with Python. In the next chapter we will dive into Pandas to learn resampling and manipulating Pandas DataFrame, which is the most commonly used method to do financial data analysis.


2 in 5 Americans have misdiagnosed themselves after searching symptoms online, survey finds
by Alexandria HeinA new survey has found that turning to Google for health issues may be doing some patients more harm than good, with two in five respondents found to have falsely convinced themselves they had a serious disease after browsing the web.
The survey, commissioned by LetsGetChecked, polled 2,000 Americans and found 65 percent had turned to Google to search their symptoms and attempt to diagnose themselves.
Of those responders, 74 percent said searching for their symptoms actually stressed them out more about their health, according to South West News Service (SWNS), a British news agency. Additionally, respondents said the answers they found on the web were reliable less than 40 percent of the time.

“While educating yourself can be a good thing, it is important to have objective testing,” said Dr. Robert Mordkin, medical director of LetsGetChecked, in a statement to SWNS. “One way to do this is with home health testing, which enables better convenience, flexibility and peace of mind.”
Six in 10 respondents admitted to actively avoiding the doctor’s office, while over a quarter said they don’t have a primary care physician. Reasons for skipping out on the doctor included cost, fear of symptoms being dismissed, and not having time for an appointment. Respondents said better explanations of test results, less expensive care and more flexible office hours would help encourage trips to the doctor.

"The fact that over half of U.S. adults turn to Google to learn more about their symptoms is unsettling,” Mordkin said, according to SWNS. “The fact that it can take weeks or months to see a doctor highlights the need for better solutions to testing, managing and knowing your health.”
LetsGetChecked, which offers at-home testing for patients, is now offering testing for two thyroid conditions ahead of Thyroid Awareness Month.

“At home health testing empowers people to test their health on their schedule and continuously receive clinical support, providing a more sound solution than relying on 'Dr. Google' for all of the answers,” Mordkin said, according to SWNS.

Two dead after tree falls on car in Gloucestershire
Road closures are in place for the ‘foreseeable future’ after two people were crushed by a fallen tree in Gloucestershire.
Police have cordoned the B4077 near the Cotswolds town of Winchcombe after the tree landed on a car on Thursday evening.
Emergency services were called to the scene at 10.15pm and confirmed two people died.
The victims’ ages and sex have not been revealed and police have not said if anyone else was travelling in the car at the time of the crash.
A police spokeswoman said road closures would be in place while recovery and an investigation takes place.
Gloucestershire Live reports the closures may be in place for some time.
The B4077 is a 16 mile stretch of road that locals say is ‘windy and lined with trees’.

The road north of Ford and at the Toddington roundabout has been closed.
The next of kin of those who were in the vehicle has been informed.
Police said anyone who witnessed the incident but has not spoken to officers should call 101 and quote incident 405 of 21 November.
Local residents have expressed shock at the incident and expressed their condolences on social media.
Rain and high tides have hit the county in the last couple of days, causing the closure of 10 roads in the area.
A spokesperson for Gloucestershire County Council said: ‘We are shocked and saddened by this awful accident.
‘We send our sincerest condolences to the those connected to the people who were tragically killed.
‘We are assisting in clearing the highway to ensure the road can be reopened as quickly as possible.’

Verify facts properly
Govt asks media about news on sensitive issues
The government yesterday urged the media to properly verify facts before publishing news on sensitive issues.
A public notice issued by the home ministry said, “The publication of misleading news on important personalities, politicians, businessmen, government officials and institutions are being noticed occasionally in print, electronic, online, and social media.”
This is deteriorating public discipline, tarnishing personal reputation, creating social unrest and confusions in people’s mind, the notice read.
The government relies heavily on the mass media’s positive role in preventing deterioration of public discipline and social unrest, it mentioned.
In view of this, the media is requested to publish objective and informative news after verifying facts accurately on such sensitive issues, it added.


| DOSE: |
30 mg |

2C-T-7 |
(liquid) |
My last 30 mg experience with 2CT-7 is without a doubt one of the most meaningful and significant events that I have been fortunate enough to share in. While the surroundings of some bars and clubs is more informal than I normally prefer, somehow the night perfectly complimented all the amzing things that were revealed to me.
Many of my past assays have been alone in an attempt to gain better insight by not being distracted, but on this night I just wanted to have fun. What I got was so much more. I gathered a few friends who have never tried it and we drank a few bottles of funny tasting water. The first hour was typical, not much effect, and then while we were sitting in the restaurant I was overcome with the most intense feelings.
Within minutes we were all launched into a psychedelic space of the most wonderful kind. My body seemed to lose feeling and was almost numb, but I soon realized it was just the entire physical world becoming unimportant. For a moment I was filled with fear... What have I done? Why do I choose to use experimental chemicals? Can I handle this?... And then I looked around me and I saw my friends in the exact same place. There was a sense of peace that came with the knowledge that we are all in this together.
Over the next hour the entire world became an undulating, colorful, and wonderfully beautiful place. As I slipped deeper and deeper I felt more and more sensitive and connected. My thoughts merged with the thoughts of others and every perception was interpreted as one sense. Not just the perceptions of sight, sound, smell, and touch, even my mood, intuition, attitude, and opinion became fused. I saw feelings, and felt pleasure as a touch, and for a time I was content to merely take in all the activity around me.
I watched as other people acted out their lives. I saw the connections between them, myself, and my friends. All the motion, the colors, the blending of thought and sense filled me with nearly inexplicable joy. The beauty of it all together was almost too much, and there were times when I questioned how perfect this world really was. I knew and saw pain around me. There is hurt in the world, and many other painful evil things. I was quite aware of these as well. They came to me in the form of physical pain, emotional distress, confusion, and sorrow. Even though I do not desire things I am glad I kept a sense of them. We do not live in a perfect world, we should not pretend it is okay. We must seek out the activities that promote beauty and alleviate sorrow, the utilitarians out there will love it!
In the car again, all of us began to laugh uncontrollably, a child-like bliss of freedom, pleasure, and the sense that the world itself was somehow entirely new. We listened to our favorite music and merged with it. The emotions we felt became a state of living and not just feelings. We ended up at a friends house where we slowly reintegrated into our right minds, happier but less satisfied.
Because on this night we were able to touch the infinite, to see with complete clarity the world in which we are so lucky to be in.
The beauty we saw that night wasn't drug induced. The beauty, the thoughts, the happiness are there for the taking. The only action required of us is to reach out like children: innocent, trusting, and eager. Material such as 2CT-7 can aid us. For a time it shows us the world which we often choose to ignore, but vital to our existence as passionate beings. With each step we become more attuned to the World of Light and are better able to perceive the infinite as a continual presence, but it is not an end. To touch the infinite is only the first step. There are many more journeys to be taken and many more stories to be shared.

@dataknut
)No doubt political science journals will soon be awash with papers explaining how the 8th June UK General Election 2017 results came to be. While we wait for these to wend their way through the writing and reviewing process, the FT’s Chris Giles and Gemma Tetlow provided us with some early insights as the results and data emerged on June 9th.
In particular they tweeted analysis of the percentage point change in vote share (so the change in the % of vote) in most of the constituencies that had declared to date with the exception of Northern Ireland.
As an example the chart below shows the % point Conservative vote change against the % who voted to leave the EU. A pretty clear linear correlation with a few interesting looking outliers…
More interestingly (for me) Chris also tweeted the STATA regression model results that were used to draw the regression line in the above chart, in several other charts and in a series of highlights they tweeted.
Now I’m as fond of regression tables as the next data knut but I wondered if there might be a better way to look at them. Thanks to Chris’s table-tweet, and relying on Ben Goldacre’s interpretation of the variable labels, here are the basic results:
| varName | Coefficient | SE | lowerCI | upperCI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| % increase in turnout | 0.135 | 0.076 | -0.015 | 0.285 |
| % leave EU | -0.127 | 0.036 | -0.197 | -0.057 |
| % Graduates | -0.097 | 0.040 | -0.175 | -0.018 |
| % 18-24 | 0.240 | 0.054 | 0.135 | 0.345 |
| % 65+ | -0.019 | 0.049 | -0.115 | 0.077 |
| Scotland | -8.003 | 1.041 | -10.043 | -5.963 |
| Wales | 1.549 | 0.648 | 0.280 | 2.819 |
| Constant/Intercept | 10.574 | 1.633 | 7.373 | 13.775 |
| varName | Coefficient | SE | lowerCI | upperCI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| % increase in turnout | -0.083 | 0.067 | -0.214 | 0.049 |
| % leave EU | 0.302 | 0.032 | 0.240 | 0.364 |
| % Graduates | -0.105 | 0.036 | -0.175 | -0.035 |
| % 18-24 | 0.140 | 0.048 | 0.047 | 0.233 |
| % 65+ | 0.179 | 0.043 | 0.094 | 0.264 |
| Scotland | 11.937 | 0.921 | 10.132 | 13.741 |
| Wales | 0.925 | 0.575 | -0.202 | 2.051 |
| Constant/Intercept | 3.413 | 1.449 | 0.573 | 6.253 |
| varName | Coefficient | SE | lowerCI | upperCI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| % increase in turnout | -0.108 | 0.071 | -0.247 | 0.031 |
| % leave EU | -0.024 | 0.033 | -0.089 | 0.041 |
| % Graduates | 0.088 | 0.037 | 0.015 | 0.161 |
| % 18-24 | -0.131 | 0.050 | -0.228 | -0.033 |
| % 65+ | 0.035 | 0.045 | -0.054 | 0.124 |
| Scotland | -1.293 | 0.967 | -3.188 | 0.602 |
| Wales | -1.308 | 0.601 | -2.486 | -0.129 |
| Constant/Intercept | -1.916 | 1.516 | -4.888 | 1.056 |
Yes, I know this is no easier to read than the original but there is a reason they look like this. It makes them easier to plot (below) and I’ve only put them there so you can check them against the originals if you want to.
What do these numbers mean? Well:
qnorm
function. Without getting entangled in recent debates about p values and confidence intervals, if 0 is in between the lower and upper confidence intervals, then we conclude that the effect is not statistically sigificant. As an example we would conclude that the effect for % increase in turnout in the Labour vote change model is not statistically significant as the confidence intervals stretch from -0.015 to 0.285.Now, before we go any further it’s worth saying:
That said, there are some interesting things to see in the three charts that follow. The first chart shows the coefficients and 95% confidence intervals for all variables in all three models, the second leaves out the intercept and the country variables to allow us to focus more easily on the other variables with much smaller ‘effects’.
The first chart shows quite clearly how Scotland, and specifically Ruth Davidson saved Theresa May’s bacon. In contrast the swing away from Labour in Scotland is also quite marked. Missing, of course, is a model for the SNP which would need to be run for Scotland only. Welsh constituencies also show a swing to the Conservatives (although not statistically significant in this model) and slightly more strongly to Labour.
The second chart, which excludes the large intercept and country effects cleary shows the relatively higher level of uncertainty of the remaining variables. In most cases the 95% confidence intervals are wide and in some cases include 0 indicating non-significance.
The results suggest that higher % leave vote shares correlate with an increase in Conservative vote share but a decrease for Labour. Interestingly there only appears to be a small (and non significant) negative effect for the Liberal Democrats.
The % of graduates is associated with an increase in vote share for the Liberal Democrats but a decrease for the other two (although the confidence intervals are wide) and the % of residents aged 65+ is strongly correlated with an increase in Conservative vote share.
Increases in turnout are associated with an increase in Labour vote share (and a decrease for the other two) but the model suggests that these effects were highly varied and thus not statistically significant. This may be because the main effect of increased turnout was actually an increase in voting by 18-24 year olds which this model suggest was significantly associated with a vote share increase for both the Conservatives and, more strongly, Labour.
I am no political scientist but the following spring to mind:
Over to the experts :-)

Conclusion
The creation of a ‘one-stop shop’, as outlined by the Director of the Human-Computer Interaction Master’s program, is a feasible undertaking. Evidence suggests that there is a real need for a centralized resource.
Communication tools in use are effective in meeting HCI student needs. Slack is used for this purpose by the entire program and the experience of students using this application is overwhelmingly positive. This application can be used as a foundation for the communication tool provided by the ‘one-stop shop’.
Resource access is made difficult by the number of applications/sites involved and the limitations of class and institutional requirements. HCI students report feeling confused about the various sources needed to find important resources. A ‘one-stop shop’ should allow users to import important information found on other sites into a single, easily organized location.
Other tools- like class information and portfolio development- are not available to students. In these cases, new resources must be developed. It is possible to build these resources by utilizing the strong peer community and preference of many students to ask peers for help.

tcllib_releasemgr - Tcllib - The Release Manager's Guide
Welcome to Tcllib, the Tcl Standard Library. Note that Tcllib is not a package itself. It is a collection of (semi-independent) Tcl packages that provide utility functions useful to a large collection of Tcl programmers.
The audience of this document is the release manager for Tcllib, their deputies, and anybody else interested in the task of creating an official release of Tcllib for distribution.
Please read Tcllib - How To Get The Sources first, if that was not done already. Here we assume that the sources are already available in a directory of your choice.
The "sak.tcl" script in the toplevel directory of a Tcllib checkout is the one tool used by the release manager to perform its Tasks.
The main commands to be used are
sak.tcl validate sak.tcl test run sak.tcl review sak.tcl readme sak.tcl localdoc sak.tcl release
More detail will be provided in the explanations of the various Tasks.
todo: open a candidate for release
todo: test, validate and check that the candidate is worthy of release fix testsuites, possibly fix packages, documentation regenerate docs coordinate with package maintainers wrt fixes big thing: going over the packages, classify changes since last release to generate a nice readme.
todo: finalize release, make candidate official
With the release made it has to be published and the world notified of its existence.
Create a proper fossil event for the release, via http://core.tcl-lang.org/tcllib/eventedit.
An existing event should be used as template.
Update a number of web locations:
The first location maps to the file "embedded/index.md" in the repository itself, as such it can edited as part of the release process. This is where reference to the new fossil event is added, as the new current release.
The next two locations are in the fossil tcllib wiki and require admin or wiki write permissions for http://core.tcl-lang.org/tcllib.
The last two locations require ssh access to http://www.tcl-lang.org and permission to edit files in the web area.
***TODO*** mailing lists and other places to send notes to.

A few weeks ago i posted a
question on JavaLobby about the additional "feel" features that i have been adding
to Substance and what people think about the extra "weight" of the download and the lock-in
for applications that would like to use these features. When i say lock-in, i mean that these
features were only available under Substance, which is good for me on one hand, but bad for
the community in general. Thankfully, one of the responses (by James) proposed splitting the
Substance code base and making the widgets available to all LAFs. And so the
laf-widget project was born.
This project contains a collection of "behavioural traits" or "widgets" for
third-party Swing look-and-feels. The list of currently provided widgets:
- Auto-completion (model-based / free-text) on editable combo boxes.
- Hover preview of minimized internal frames on desktop icons.
- Menu search panel on menu bars.
- Hover preview of tab in tabbed panes.
- Overview dialog on tabbed panes.
- Password strength checker on password fields.
- Lock border on non-editable text components and model-based editable combo boxes.
- Select all text in text component on focus gain.
- Enhanced drag-and-drop support for trees.
View the detailed
documentation
on how to enable the above widgets in a specific LAF. Once the steps
described in that document have been completed (by either the LAF developer
or by the LAF user), Swing application running under the
"widgetized" LAF will feature the widgets described above. Here is a sample
application under core Metal and Windows LAFs:
Here is the same application under
Substance LAF (note the menu search panel
in the menu bar, the tab overview button, the strength markers on password fields and
the lock icons on disabled text field and editable model-only combobox):
The same application under JGoodies Looks
Plastic XP, Liquid,
Pagosoft,
Squareness,
InfoNode and
Napkin features the same widgets for
the menu bar, combobox, password fields and text fields. Note that the tab overview widget requires
custom LAF support from the relevant LAFs.
Additional resources
Additional thanks go:
-
To Thomas
Bierhance for letting use the auto-completion on editable
comboboxes (refactored to fit the listener model and later moved to this
project). This work has been previously released to
public
domain.
- To inostock for providing additional fixes for combobox auto-completion.
- To Antonio
Vieiro for letting use the enhanced tree drag-and-drop (refactored to fit the project
concept). This work was originally released under LGPL and contributed under BSD.
- To Romain Guy for contributing
image-processing functions (compatible images and thumbnails).

| Interface | Description |
|---|---|
| ErrorListener |
To provide customized error handling, implement this interface and
use the
setErrorListener method to register an instance of the
implmentation with the Transformer . |
| Result |
An object that implements this interface contains the information
needed to build a transformation result tree.
|
| Source |
An object that implements this interface contains the information
needed to act as source input (XML source or transformation instructions).
|
| SourceLocator |
This interface is primarily for the purposes of reporting where
an error occurred in the XML source or transformation instructions.
|
| Templates |
An object that implements this interface is the runtime representation of processed
transformation instructions.
|
| URIResolver |
An object that implements this interface that can be called by the processor
to turn a URI used in document(), xsl:import, or xsl:include into a Source object.
|
| Class | Description |
|---|---|
| OutputKeys |
Provides string constants that can be used to set
output properties for a Transformer, or to retrieve
output properties from a Transformer or Templates object.
|
| Transformer |
An instance of this abstract class can transform a
source tree into a result tree.
|
| TransformerFactory |
A TransformerFactory instance can be used to create
Transformer and
Templates objects. |
| Exception | Description |
|---|---|
| TransformerConfigurationException |
Indicates a serious configuration error.
|
| TransformerException |
This class specifies an exceptional condition that occured
during the transformation process.
|
| Error | Description |
|---|---|
| TransformerFactoryConfigurationError |
Thrown when a problem with configuration with the Transformer Factories
exists.

This package defines the generic APIs for processing transformation
instructions, and performing a transformation from source to result. These
interfaces have no dependencies on SAX or the DOM standard, and try to make as
few assumptions as possible about the details of the source and result of a
transformation. It achieves this by defining
Source
and
Result
interfaces.
To define concrete classes for the user, the API defines specializations
of the interfaces found at the root level. These interfaces are found in
javax.xml.transform.sax
, javax.xml.transform.dom
,
and javax.xml.transform.stream
.
The API allows a concrete
TransformerFactory
object to be created from
the static function
TransformerFactory.newInstance()
.
This API defines two interface objects called
Source
and
Result
. In order to pass Source and Result
objects to the interfaces, concrete classes must be used.
Three concrete representations are defined for each of these
objects:
StreamSource
and
StreamResult
,
SAXSource
and
SAXResult
, and
DOMSource
and
DOMResult
. Each of these objects defines
a FEATURE string (which is i the form of a URL), which can be passed into
TransformerFactory.getFeature(java.lang.String)
to see if the
given type of Source or Result object is supported. For instance, to test if a
DOMSource and a StreamResult is supported, you can apply the following
test.
TransformerFactory tfactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
if (tfactory.getFeature(DOMSource.FEATURE) && tfactory.getFeature(StreamResult.FEATURE)) {
...
}
Namespaces present something of a problem area when dealing with XML objects. Qualified Names appear in XML markup as prefixed names. But the prefixes themselves do not hold identity. Rather, it is the URIs that they contextually map to that hold the identity. Therefore, when passing a Qualified Name like "xyz:foo" among Java programs, one must provide a means to map "xyz" to a namespace.
One solution has been to create a "QName" object that holds the namespace URI, as well as the prefix and local name, but this is not always an optimal solution, as when, for example, you want to use unique strings as keys in a dictionary object. Not having a string representation also makes it difficult to specify a namespaced identity outside the context of an XML document.
In order to pass namespaced values to transformations,
for
instance when setting a property or a parameter on a
Transformer
object,
this specification defines that a
String "qname" object parameter be passed as two-part string, the namespace URI
enclosed in curly braces ({}), followed by the local name. If the qname has a
null URI, then the String object only contains the local name. An application
can safely check for a non-null URI by testing to see if the first character of
the name is a '{' character.
For example, if a URI and local name were obtained from an element defined with <xyz:foo xmlns:xyz="http://xyz.foo.com/yada/baz.html"/>, then the Qualified Name would be "{http://xyz.foo.com/yada/baz.html}foo". Note that the prefix is lost.
Serialization of the result tree to a stream can be controlled with
the Transformer.setOutputProperties(java.util.Properties)
and the
Transformer.setOutputProperty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
methods.
These properties only apply to stream results, they have no effect when
the result is a DOM tree or SAX event stream.
Strings that match the XSLT
specification for xsl:output attributes can be referenced from the
OutputKeys
class. Other strings can be
specified as well.
If the transformer does not recognize an output key, a
IllegalArgumentException
is thrown, unless the
key name is namespace qualified. Output key names
that are namespace qualified are always allowed, although they may be
ignored by some implementations.
If all that is desired is the simple identity transformation of a
source to a result, then TransformerFactory
provides a
TransformerFactory.newTransformer()
method
with no arguments. This method creates a Transformer that effectively copies
the source to the result. This method may be used to create a DOM from SAX
events or to create an XML or HTML stream from a DOM or SAX events.
The transformation API throw three types of specialized exceptions. A
TransformerFactoryConfigurationError
is parallel to
the FactoryConfigurationError
, and is thrown
when a configuration problem with the TransformerFactory exists. This error
will typically be thrown when the transformation factory class specified with
the "javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory" system property cannot be found or
instantiated.
A TransformerConfigurationException
may be thrown if for any reason a Transformer can not be created. A
TransformerConfigurationException may be thrown if there is a syntax error in
the transformation instructions, for example when
TransformerFactory.newTransformer(javax.xml.transform.Source)
is
called.
TransformerException
is a general
exception that occurs during the course of a transformation. A transformer
exception may wrap another exception, and if any of the
TransformerException.printStackTrace()
methods are called on it, it will produce a list of stack dumps, starting from
the most recent. The transformer exception also provides a
SourceLocator
object which indicates where
in the source tree or transformation instructions the error occurred.
TransformerException.getMessageAndLocation()
may be called to get an error message with location info, and
TransformerException.getLocationAsString()
may be called to get just the location string.
Transformation warnings and errors are sent to an
ErrorListener
, at which point the
application may decide to report the error or warning, and may decide to throw
an Exception
for a non-fatal error. The ErrorListener
may be set via
TransformerFactory.setErrorListener(javax.xml.transform.ErrorListener)
for
reporting errors that have to do with syntax errors in the transformation
instructions, or via
Transformer.setErrorListener(javax.xml.transform.ErrorListener)
to report
errors that occur during the transformation. The ErrorListener
on both objects
will always be valid and non-null
, whether set by the application or a default
implementation provided by the processor.
The default implementation provided by the processor will report all warnings and errors to System.err
and does not throw any Exception
s.
Applications are strongly encouraged to register and use
ErrorListener
s that insure proper behavior for warnings and
errors.
The API provides a way for URIs referenced from within the stylesheet
instructions or within the transformation to be resolved by the calling
application. This can be done by creating a class that implements the
URIResolver
interface, with its one method,
URIResolver.resolve(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
, and use this class to
set the URI resolution for the transformation instructions or transformation
with TransformerFactory.setURIResolver(javax.xml.transform.URIResolver)
or
Transformer.setURIResolver(javax.xml.transform.URIResolver)
. The
URIResolver.resolve
method takes two String arguments, the URI found in the
stylesheet instructions or built as part of the transformation process, and the
base URI
against which the first argument will be made absolute if the
absolute URI is required.
The returned Source
object must be usable by
the transformer, as specified in its implemented features.

 I mean, it beats the alternative, but wow – who knew so many things can all hurt at the same time? As a nearly 60-year-old, I find that bowling, playing golf, pickleball, and water volleyball regularly makes various body parts and areas hurt. Am I just supposed to make various moans and groans every time I sit down or stand up, or, is there something I can do to help get my muscles and joints feeling at least a little better?
Theragun makes a line of percussive therapy devices that are designed to allow you to massage specific areas of your body to provide pain relief and also warm up muscles before physical activity. They sent me their latest, the G3Pro, so I could give it, or more correctly have it give me, a once-over.
What is it?
The G3Pro is a dual-speed percussive therapy massage gun.
What’s in the box?
Of course, the G3Pro is in the box.
There is a bunch of paperwork in the box:
- Very brief user guide (the app provides more comprehensive instructions)
- Theragun sticker
- Reminder card to download the app
- Warnings/precautions page
-
A description of why Theragun was created and invitation to tell your Theragun story as well
- Battery charger stand
- Battery charger power brick with charger plug attached
- Battery charger 110V power cord
- 2x batteries
-
Six attachment heads left to right, top to bottom)
-
Large ball
- large muscle groups like the quads and glutes
-
Dampner
- general use and treatment of tender or bony areas
-
Standard ball
- overall use, especially during your workout
-
Wedge
- scraping, flushing, and treatment of the shoulder blades and IT bands
-
Thumb
- trigger point therapy, and treatment of the lower back or anywhere you might have used an actual thumb
-
Cone
- pinpoint muscle treatment, trigger points, and small muscle areas
-
- Attachment zipper carry bag
Also included is a very nice, albeit large, travel case.
One side of the case is molded to fit the G3Pro. The other side has pockets for the two batteries and a pocket for the optional world power adapters. Those are not included.  A thick piece of foam rubber is also included to hold everything in place when the case is zipped closed.
Hardware specs
- Dimensions: 265 mm x 200 mm x 70 mm
- Weight: 3.10 lbs
- Percussion amplitude: 16 mm
- Percussion force: Delivers up to 60 lbs
- Percussion frequency: 2 speeds, 40 and 29 percussions per second
- Frame: Professional-grade plastic composite
- Internals: Industrial-grade Japanese motor
- Battery life: 2 batteries, 75 minutes each (battery life may vary depending on the pressure used)
- Battery type: 2x Samsung lithium-ion 4-cell, 2.5 amp
Design and features
The G3Pro just feels good in the hand. It is nicely balanced and at just over three pounds, not too heavy to easily hold and use. The rubberized covering over most of the body gives you a good, non-slip grip on the gun.
Setup
Setup is easy – charge up and then insert a battery. The charger light flashes during charging and then turns on solid to indicate charging is complete.
The battery slides into the underside of the gun and snaps into place firmly.
There is also a battery charging port on the gun itself and the charger can be plugged into the gun directly. This is mainly for the optional charging stand, as with two batteries, it makes more sense to charge the second battery on the charger base while using the other battery in the gun.
Massage attachments snap on to the piston.
A spring-loaded ball bearing on each side of the piston snap positively into indentations inside the attachment heads. A firm pull on the attachment snaps it off the piston.
The black circle in the center of the decorative blue disc is the release button for the piston arm.
Pressing that button allows you to rotate the arm into one of four locked positions.
This allows you to more easily position the massager on specific muscle groups without having to be a contortionist. If you are using the G3Pro on someone else, changing the piston position can reduce strain on you.
Performance
Along the top of the gun, we find the power and speed switch.
The left image shows the unit powered off. When powered on, the ring around the switch glows soft white. The speed switch at the top of the dual switch toggles between 40 and 29 percussions per second (pps).
On the side of the handle, we find a thin, dark window.
When powered on, a series of LEDs indicate the relative charge of the battery.
The Theragun app is available for IOS and Android.
The app allows you to create an account and register your warranty with Theragun.
The app also provides more detailed instructions on use.
In addition, it provides fairly specific instructions on how to use the gun for a wide variety of muscle groups, joints, and specific body areas.
This is a brief video (no sound), showing the G3Pro on standard speed (40 pps), pounding my right calf. I was applying almost zero pressure, which is recommended. The instructions state to let the gun do the work and to just “float” over the area for most use cases. The video slows in the middle so you can really see how much the gun penetrates.
There are two basic modes of use for the G3Pro, muscle activation, and pain relief/recovery. To activate and stimulate a muscle group, using the G3Pro for just 30 seconds will get the blood flowing and get the muscle group ready for activity. To release knots, wind down, or to provide pain relief, up to two minutes is recommended.
I struggled with plantar fasciitis for several months from playing pickleball. I’ve kept it under control by using a rocker to stretch my hamstrings and plantar facia both before and after playing. I also upgraded to better shoes and inserts. Still, it is a daily battle, but I am winning at the moment.
I decided to give the G3Pro a try. I started with the recommended sweep down the back of my calves to wake up the muscles in the leg. Then I worked the back of the ankle in three lines up/down on the middle and sides. I finished with sweeps from my heals to toes and circles around my heals. I did this both before and after playing. I noticed that my post-play stretching routine felt less tight than usual after just one treatment. The post-play percussion session also just felt good.
Continuing to follow the instructions, I started a pre-bed routine and an early morning wake-up routine.  After just a couple of days, I seem to hurt less. Perhaps it is just a placebo effect happening, but my muscles feel looser and less sore.
During mid-review, I had a cruise planned. I thought about bringing the Theragun along, especially since it has that nice travel case, but opted not to. After a week of not using it, I again noticed a difference. I felt a little tighter and my joints seemed a bit more painful. As soon as I got home, I started using the gun again, in the morning, before and after physical activities and before bed. Once again, I noticed a difference and I didn’t seem to hurt as much.
Now, whether the perceived reduction in pain is due to the Theragun G3Pro, or simply a placebo effect is anyone’s guess. Bottom line is that I don’t care. I feel better when using the Theragun G3Pro. Just today, I was sitting after a hard 90-minute pickleball session when the top of my left foot started cramping. It hurt a lot and flexing my ankle to stretch out the area was ineffective. I brought my leg up and hit my ankle, heel and arch for about a minute with the gun. The top of the foot is way too boney to use the gun. I tried the cone attachment between my big toe bone and the second toe bone, but it didn’t feel good. I went back to the dampner attachment and again focused on the arch area and up the side of my foot. I was pleased to find that the cramping was completely gone. Wow!
Our neighbors were over last night and I mentioned the Theragun G3Pro to them. Of course, they wanted a demo, so I ran it over their shoulders and neck. There were all kinds of “ooohhh” and “aaahhh” moments. Suffice it to say that they really liked it. They wanted to know more about it, that is until I told them the price.
I’ve used the Theragun G3Pro for a little more than two weeks now, not counting the break for our cruise. I definitely feel a positive difference when I use the gun. I figured that I’ve used the gun for between five to ten minutes daily and the first battery just died. This makes their 75-minute battery life claim pretty plausible.
What I like
- Easy to use and control
- Comprehensive attachments for specific body area use
- Having two batteries means no downtime
- For me, at least, it really seems to eliminate or severely reduce perceived muscle and joint pain
What I’d change
- It is a bit noisy
- It’s pricey
- A more comprehensive user guide for massaging specific muscle groups would be a nice addition
Final thoughts
I am approaching 60 years old and am very active. Couple that with carrying some bonus weight and I am pounding my body pretty hard. The bottom line is that for me, this thing works. I run it over my legs, upper and lower back, shoulders, arms, hands, feet and so on most mornings and evenings to both wake up the muscles and joints and then relax them before sleep. I also use it after exercising to warm-down my muscles. So far, it is making me feel better.
Is that worth nearly $600? Well, that question depends on your use case. There are other competing units, including two from Theragun, at significantly lower price points. The G3Pro offers two speeds and more position flexibility and impact power than the cheaper units. It is a heavy-duty unit that could be used professionally. For home use, it might be overkill and a cheaper unit might work just fine for you. But, if there are multiple folks in your household, or you run a therapy clinic, the added power, battery life and position flexibility of the G3Pro are probably well worth the outlay.
For me, the G3Pro is now part of my daily routine.
Price: $599.00
Where to buy: Amazon and direct from Theragun. Also available at Best Buy and other retailers.

Rapid-fire gun attachments to be outlawed in Australia
by AAPGun attachments that increase the firing speed of rifles, such as those used in the Las Vegas massacre, are set to be banned in every Australian state and territory.
The federal government is reportedly outlawing the devices and introducing tougher rules for serial numbers on weapons shipped into Australia for better tracking.
Assistant Customs Minister Jason Wood will put an import ban in place while also demanding states and territories ban the attachments.
"John Howard made sure Australia had the toughest gun laws, and I have given the green light to make sure Australia continues to be vigilant and have strong regulations," he said on Sunday.
Bump stocks increase the firing speed of semi-automatic rifles and were used by Stephen Paddock when he killed 58 people in Las Vegas in 2017.
They are banned in Queensland and South Australia but haven't been made illegal in other states and territories, including NSW.
Mr Wood wants the new rules in place by Christmas, with penalties of up to 10 years in jail for anyone caught importing the devices.
"Until now, border officers haven't been searching for these devices because they weren't on anyone's radar," he said.
Under the changes, serial numbers will be standardised on imported weapons and put in the same place on every gun.

R/nn-utils-rnn.R
nn_utils_rnn_pad_packed_sequence.Rd
It is an inverse operation to nn_utils_rnn_pack_padded_sequence()
.
nn_utils_rnn_pad_packed_sequence( sequence, batch_first = FALSE, padding_value = 0, total_length = NULL )
| sequence | (PackedSequence): batch to pad |
|---|---|
| batch_first | (bool, optional): if |
| padding_value | (float, optional): values for padded elements. |
| total_length | (int, optional): if not |
Tuple of Tensor containing the padded sequence, and a Tensor
containing the list of lengths of each sequence in the batch.
Batch elements will be re-ordered as they were ordered originally when
the batch was passed to nn_utils_rnn_pack_padded_sequence()
or
nn_utils_rnn_pack_sequence()
.
The returned Tensor's data will be of size T x B x *
, where T
is the length
of the longest sequence and B
is the batch size. If batch_first
is TRUE
,
the data will be transposed into B x T x *
format.
total_length
is useful to implement the

Text description provided by the architects. Xixi, a national wetland park located on the outskirts of Hangzhou, is a built landscape and an area of nature, which has been shaped by man for over a thousand years. The omnipresent relationship between landscape, architecture, and water is key to the atmosphere in Xixi. This atmosphere has been integrated into a new development of apartment buildings.
The apartment buildings are surrounded by a water garden, which, as a reference to the wetland park, is a mostly wild landscape. In contrast to these green surroundings, the buildings appear as dark stone volumes embedded in the water garden. They are, as is typical for villages in Xixi, placed on a stone plinth that sits in the water.
This plinth forms the base of a village group with various levels, walls, and balustrades creating a sequence of exterior spaces, which enable access to the buildings. The interiors are characterised by floating spaces. Room height windows allow for natural light and views over the water garden.

Popcru assassination case: Witness intimidation allegations emerge
The suspected middleman in the alleged assassination plot, Neo Letele, allegedly used his own mother to intimidate a key witness.
by News24 WireJustice in court. Picture: Twitter
Allegations of witness intimidation have surfaced in the bail application of three men accused of hatching a plot to assassinate senior members of the Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union (Popcru).
Testifying in the bail application in the Kempton Park Regional Court on Friday, Hawks detective sergeant, Norton Ndabambi, said the suspected middleman in the alleged assassination plot, Neo Letele, used his own mother to intimidate a key witness.
Letele shares the dock with Popcru CEO Zwelinkosi Reuben Mdletshe and Robert Sheriff. It is alleged that Mdletshe and Sheriff instructed Letele to source the assassin, who would be paid R1m for the job.
According to Ndabambi’s testimony on Friday, the witness claimed that he received a threatening phone call from Letele’s mother.
“I interviewed the witness and he said he knew Letele.
“Later, Letele tried to intimidate him through his mother. The witness said he received a call from Letele’s mother who questioned him regarding the case and told him that her son was not involved in the matter. The witness then made a recording of the conversation,” Ndabambi testified.
The court heard that Letele’s mother was concerned about her son’s detention.
“The mother was interfering with the case by posing questions to the witness,” Ndabambi said.
The court also heard that Mdletshe employed Letele as an IT expert at Popcru Investment Group of Companies.
The detective was unable to verify the authenticity of Letele’s passport because he was only provided with copies of it.
Ndabambi started investigating the case on October 15 after the matter was delegated to the Hawks by the SA Police Service management.
The bail hearing continues.


Spot the Alien Fish
Spot the Alien Fish is a citizen science campaign through which the sea users and the public in general are encouraged to contribute information on the arrival of new (alien) fish species to Maltese waters and how these fish species are spreading over time in our waters.
The campaign is coordinated by Prof. Alan Deidun from the Department of Geosciences at the University of Malta and builds on the success of the Spot the Jellyfish citizen science campaign. The campaign is supported by the IOI, the University of Malta, the Department of Fisheries and ERA.
Through the Spot the Alien Fish, everyone can act as a marine biologist by helping scientists in their day-to-day work, especially since more and more marine alien species are reaching our waters. We look forward to your reports – we welcome all records of alien fish species, not just the ones listed in this app developed by MCAST students. Wish you some great fish spotting!
