VICINITY Overall architecture¶
The objective of the VICINITY architecture [1] is to facilitate interoperability between different IoT infrastructures’ devices and to software-enable value-added services through a peer-to-peer (P2P) network of VICINITY Nodes. Each VICINITY Node provides access to IoT infrastructure and/or value-added service. Once the IoT infrastructure is integrated into the VICINITY neighbourhood through the VICINITY Node, devices connected to the infrastructure become accessible through the VICINITY Neighbourhood Manager in the VICINITY Cloud. In VICINITY Neighbourhood Manager IoT infrastructure owner can define sharing access rules of devices and service (i.e. has direct control over his or her devices). Based on these rules he or she creates social network of devices and service called “virtual neighbourhood”.
The VICINITY Nodes create a controlled VICINITY Peer-to-peer (P2P) Network based on these rules defined by VICINITY Neighbourhood Manager (Figure 2 – yellow and blue arrows) in VICINITY Cloud. In VICINITY P2P Network, VICINITY Nodes communicate user data directly between each other (red arrows in the following figure). Moreover, the VICINITY P2P Network support VICINITY Node with security services (such as end-to-end encryption, data integrity, etc.) to ensure security and privacy of exchanged user data.
The VICINITY provides semantic interoperability features to facilitate exchange of user data between IoT devices and value-added services to overcome technology differences between each connected IoT ecosystem. Thus, communication with each device or service via VICINITY P2P Network is standardised regardless of the technology the device or service is connected to a VICINITY Node. This semantic interoperability approach is based on the work being done by the Web of Things (WoT) WG [2] , where a proposal for describing, exposing and consuming web things by leveraging Semantic Web technologies is in development. Such web things are things that can be accessed through the Web, either physically or abstract.
One of the pillars of the W3C WoT is the Thing Description (TD), which aims to be a standard frame to support the description of web things semantically to make them interoperable. Thus, TDs are expected to cover the following aspects:
- Semantic meta-data, so to explicitly specify the semantics of a web thing;
- Thing’s interaction resources: property, action and event;
- Security including concrete prerequisites to access things are stated;
- Communications, i.e., what kind of protocols and data exchange formats are supported, and which endpoints are exposed to give access to the existing interaction resources of a web thing.
VICINITY Cloud¶
The VICINITY Cloud enables IoT infrastructure operators and Service providers to configure a virtual neighbourhood of connected devices and value-added services including the setup of sharing access rules between them through the user-friendly interface of VICINITY Neighbourhood Manager. Configuration of the virtual neighbourhood and sharing access rules are used by VICINITY Communication Server to setup communication channels between each VICINITY Node to control exchange of user data. IoT infrastructure operators and Service providers can search for devices and services in virtual neighbourhood based on semantic description of device properties, actions, events and service products & required inputs stored in semantic repository. Moreover, IoT operators, System integrators and Services providers can register the VICINITY Nodes (registration of the application API) to communication in peer-to-peer.
VICINITY Node¶
A VICINITY Node is the set of software components which maintains the user data exchange between peers in the VICINITY P2P network based on configuration of the virtual neighbourhood and sharing rules received from VICINITY Communication Server. For that purpose, VICINITY Node consists of the following 3 main components:
- VICINITY Gateway API and Communication Node;
- VICINITY Agent;
- VICINITY Adapter.
Note
The VICINITY Gateway API and Communication Node service provides the following set of JSON HTTP REST services in the VICINITY common format and data model:
- Registry service to register devices and value-added services using their simple semantic description as JSON document in VICINITY;
- Search service in virtual neighbourhood of connected IoT infrastructures and value-added services;
- Services to read/write properties, performing actions and process events from shared devices device/service from connected IoT infrastructure or value-added service;
- Expose properties, actions and events of device/service to VICINITY through simple REST API;
- Authentication services for the IoT infrastructure (authentication of the application) and devices and value-added services;
- Status check service (in development).
Note
The VICINITY Adapter is a component provided by IoT infrastructure owner or respective system integrator. The VICINITY Adapter provides simple API, which has to be implemented for every adopted infrastructure. The core responsibilities of the Adapter API are:
- to provide the description of IoT objects (devices, services) of infrastructure in common VICINITY format, which enables VICINITY to create internal models of used IoT objects in uniform way;
- to provide access to properties, actions and events of devices provided by infrastructure.
The purpose of the VICINITY Adapter is to simplify the adoption of IoT infrastructure in as simple way as possible. The Adapter is used just to discover IoT objects in infrastructure and to communicate with IoT objects. Once the IoT infrastructure owner/system integrator provides the Adapter component implementing simple prescribed API, the IoT infrastructure can be easily adopted. The full VICINITY functionality is then managed by VICINITY Agent component.
The VICINITY Agent is the wrapper for the VICINITY Adapter. The VICINITY Adapter provides the full VICINITY specific functionality, as managing communication via P2P network, semantic discovery of IoT objects, semantic search of IoT objects, communication with IoT objects within the infrastructure, where each VICINITY specific interaction with IoT objects is translated in the VICINITY Adapter calls. Simply speaking, the Adapter handles only very basic communication with IoT infrastructure by implementing simple API. Agent manages full VICINITY interactions with IoT infrastructure by translating this interaction into the Adapter API services.
How to connect IoT infrastructure to VICINITY¶
The VICINITY support following VICINITY Node deployment scenarios:
- VICINITY Node local IoT gateway deployment – IoT infrastructure A
VICINITY and IoT infrastructure are integrated in location of deployment of infrastructure. In this scenario the VICINITY Gateway API, VICINITY Agent and Adapter are deployed directly in IoT infrastructure. For example, if IoT infrastructure is deployed in household all these components can be deployed directly on the household. Moreover, if you IoT infrastructure platform enables run the Java 8 applications the API, Agent and Adapter can run in the same environment. In this scenario VICINITY Node is used only by one organisation (household, company, etc.) - multi tenant mode.
- VICINITY Node cloud deployment – IoT infrastructure B
VICINITY and IoT infrastructure are integrated on the level of cloud services. For example, if your IoT infrastructure provides cloud service its users, it might be beneficial to deploy and integrate VICINITY Node with Cloud services rather with IoT Gateway. In this case, VICINITY Node will be used by multiple organisation (households, companies, etc.) - used in multi tenant mode.
How to integrate IoT infrastructure in VICINITY¶
The integration of IoT infrastructure in VICINITY includes following steps which needs to be performed by system integrator:
- Installation of VICINITY Gateway API
- Installation of VICINITY Agent
- Registration of devices
- Testing of devices accessibility

Models can be used to improve the accuracy of your backtesting. We provide basic default models that assume you are trading on highly liquid assets, but if you are trading high volumes or on low volume assets, you should update these models to be more realistic.
All models are set on a per security basis. To set a model, first fetch the security object and apply your model.
//Set IBM to have a constant $1 transaction fee. Securities["IBM"].FeeModel = new ConstantFeeTransactionModel(1);
All models should be set up in your Initialize() method.

Bypass Serialization using Readers and InputStreams
Juneau serializers treat instances of Readers
and InputStreams
special by
simply serializing their contents directly to the output stream or writer.
This allows you to embed fully customized serializer output.
public class MyBean {
// A bean property that produces raw JSON.
public Reader f1 = new StringReader("{'foo':'bar'}");
}
// Produces "{f1:{'foo':'bar'}}"
String json = SimpleJsonSerializer.DEFAULT
.toString(new MyBean());
Note that if you're serializing Readers and InputStreams, it's up to you to make sure you're producing
valid output (in this case JSON).
A more typical scenario where this is useful is by using swaps to convert POJOs to Readers whose
contents are determined via the {@link oaj.BeanSession#getMediaType()} method.
In the following example, we're customizing the JSON output for a particular bean type, but leaving
all other renditions as-is:
@Swap(MyBeanSwapSometimes.class)
public class MyBean {...}
// A swap that produces specialized output for JSON, but default serialization for
// all other media types.
public class MyBeanSwapSometimes extends PojoSwap<MyBean,Object> {
public Object swap(BeanSession session, MyPojo o) throws Exception {
MediaType mt = session.getMediaType();
if (mt.hasSubType("json"))
return new StringReader("{myPojo:'foobar'}"); // Custom JSON output
return o; // Otherwise serialize it as a normal bean
}
}
-
Due to the nature of the RDF serializers, Readers and InputStreams are serialized as literals,
not as RDF text.
This is due to the fact that the RDF serializers use a DOM for serialization, so we don't have
access to the underlying stream.


Summarise
What is a selector?
In CSS, we use selectors to target specific HTML elements. There are 3 main selectors; Tag Selectors, ID Selectors, and Class Selectors.
Class and ID Selectors are used to identify HTML elements, ignoring the type of tag. The main benefit of setting class or ID is that you can present the same HTML element differently, depending on its class or ID.
HTML Syntax
id
What is an 'id' selector?
The ID selector matches an element based on the value of its id attribute. Here the id attribute is 'example-id'. In order for the element to be selected, its ID attribute must exactly match the value given in the selector.
CSS Syntax
The '#' symbol and the id of the HTML element name are used to select the desired element. This comes to '#example-id' as the identifier.
class
What is a 'class' selector?
The class selector selects elements with a specific class attribute. Here the class attribute is 'example-class'. It matches ALL the HTML elements based on the contents of their class attribute.
CSS Syntax
The '.' symbol, along with the class name, is used to select the desired class. This comes to '.example-class' as the identifier.
Result
What is this showing?
Here we have an example that shows what will take precedence (class or id) when both selectors are used.
Since the 'class' selector is targeting the 'main' div. The CSS rules will apply to everything. This is shown by the "CSS Concepts" and "This is an example of a CLASS selector" having the same rules.
The ID on the other hand, overwrites the class rules and applies its own ID specified CSS rules

which timebox and habits techniques did you try?
I tried timebox of 1 hour to read through the timebox and habits techniques reources. I found that when I set up a timer I became more efficient and concentrated.
I tried starting from small. I am doing 20 sit-ups after a timebox now.
I have been meditating. And I tought my wife meditating which I called as fishing without fishing tod.
what did you find interesting?
I found the change of the beta waves from brain when Meditating interesting.
>what worked for you?
Both the timebox and starting from small worked for me, I became more effictive when setting up a timer and I found time to do sit-ups now. Actually It doesn't took long time to complete
which will you experiment further with?
I will experiment a different way of meditation, utilize timer and start small to display my ability and increase confidence.

The Newton-Euler equations¶
Engineering mechanics uses 6 equations of motion to describe the relationship between applied forces and moments to the motion of rigid bodies. These 6 equations are the Newton-Euler kinetic equations, you can write the equations succinctly as vector-relationships between forces and acceleration as
\(\mathbf{F} = m\mathbf{a}\) equations 1-3
\(\mathbf{M}_{G} = \frac{d}{dt}\mathbf{h}_G\) equations 4-6
where \(\mathbf{F}\) is the resultant sum of forces on a rigid body, \(\mathbf{M}_{G}\) is the resultant sum of moments about a rigid body’s center of mass, and $\mathbf{h}_G is the angular momentum of a rigid body. Angular momentum is a description of the inertia in a rigid body due to spinning. To start, we are limiting our study to 3-DOF planar rigid body motion. This simplifies the Newton-Euler equation to 3 coupled differential equations as such,
\(\mathbf{F}\cdot\hat{e}_1 = m\mathbf{a}\cdot\hat{e}_1\)
\(\mathbf{F}\cdot\hat{e}_2 = m\mathbf{a}\cdot\hat{e}_2\)
\(\mathbf{M}_{G}\cdot\hat{e}_3 = I_{zz}\alpha\)
where \(\hat{e}_{1},~\hat{e}_{2},\) and \(\hat{e}_{3}\) are three orthogonal unit vectors, \(I_{zz}\) is the moment of inertia for the rigid body, and \(\alpha\) is the angular acceleration of the rigid body. Every rigid body in an engineering system can be described by the Newton-Euler equations.
Note: The mass of an object describes how difficult it is to move it in a straight line. The moment of inertia describes how difficult it is to rotate an object. The units for moment of inertia are \(kg-m^2\) (in SI). A quick explanation of moment of inertia is that it is the variance in the center of mass.
Example¶
Consider a baseball that is thrown. It has an initial velocity of 6 m/s at an angle of 60\(^o\) from the ground and its rotating 10 times/sec. Determine the acceleration of the baseball and its maximum height.
In this example, consider the three planar Newton-Euler equations by first drawing a Free Body Diagram as seen below.
The force of gravity acts over the entire object equally and no other forces are present. Now, write out the 3 Newton-Euler equations
Note: You will include force of drag, but for now just consider the motion without drag.
\(0 = m\ddot{x}\)
\(-mg = m\ddot{y}\)
\(0 = I_{zz}\ddot{\theta}\)
Integrating the three equations, you get three equations to describe the position and angle of the baseball.
\(x(t) = x(0)+6\cos\frac{\pi}{3}t\)
\(y(t) = y(0)+6\sin\frac{\pi}{3}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}\)
\(\theta(t) = \theta(0)+10\frac{rot}{s}\frac{2\pi~rad}{rot}t\)
t = np.linspace(0,1.1,10)
x = 6*np.cos(np.pi/3)*t
y = 6*np.sin(np.pi/3)*t-9.81*t**2/2
theta = 10*2*np.pi*t
plt.plot(x,y,'o')
plt.xlabel('distance (m)')
plt.ylabel('height (m)');
A freefalling object does not have a force in the x-direction or an applied moment, so the angular acceleration is 0 rad/s/s. The ball will continue spinning until an external moment is applied e.g. another player’s baseball mitt.
Describing kinetic properties¶
The motion of the baseball, its path and its rotation, describes the kinematics or geometry of motion. You can also use kinetic properties to describe moving object. The Newton-Euler create quantitative comparisons between kinematic and kinetic properties.
The first kinetic property is the Forces acting on the baseball:
\(\mathbf{F} = 0\hat{i} - mg\hat{j}\).
where \(\mathbf{F}\) is the force acting on the baseball. A force is a vector quantity with magnitude and direction or another way to state this is that it has components along each unit vector.

I am very active in the HK startup community, and you can run into us
at tech events posted on the HK Startup calendar. You can ask me a
question on
Quora and I can also
been found for one to one mentoring at
the
TiE Office
Hours and at the pitch sessions for
the
HK Business Angels Network.
Employment and internship requests
Bitquant has two employees, Joseph Wang and Su-Chen Liao. It's my
firm condition that we will never have more than five employees. As a
laboratory just having too many people creates a large, bloated
bureaucracy, and big bureaucracies just can't move fast enough to do
real research.
We do not hire employees, but rather we help people start their own
companies. Also, we do contract with design firms, legal firms, and
various other vendors, and we meet people through the grape vine here
in Hong Kong.
Requests for funding
I spend a lot of time helping small companies in Hong Kong get
funding, and I also put some of my own money into small companies in
Hong Kong. I do not do equity investments, but rather typically do
project based investments of about USD 10K. The typical loan would be
for a widget manufacturer to pay for a Chinese factory to produce the
product, and would be about a 10% overhead for a loan that lasts for
about three months. This gives you an effective annual interest rate
of about 40%, and if you can get money from someone other than me, you
should. On the other hand, banks won't lend for these projects, and
while you could get the money from friends and family, the fact that
I'm charging you an high interest rate means that you don't owe me any
favors.
I also provide product and trade financing. Typically the way that
this works is that the wholesaler wants a product from a Chinese
factory. I get paid in the form of bitcoin, and add a markup of 25%
and a loan of 10% payable in three months. One reason to go through
me is that I can guarantee quality of the goods.

Code of Conduct and Guidelines for Kotlin Slack
- How to behave
- How not to behave
- How to report issues
- Basic Usage Guidelines
- Common Channels
- Copyright
Kotlin Slack aims to be an inclusive space that is committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ability, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and religion (or lack thereof).
For this to be the case, it is vital that we all follow a basic set of guidelines and most importantly adhere to the code of conduct. As such, please make sure you read this Code of Conduct and Basic Usage Guidelines in its entirety. This isn’t your regular License Agreement that you should scroll through and agree blindy. It’s here for a reason and also contains practical information.
How to behave
- Participate in an authentic and active way. In doing so, you contribute to the health and longevity of this community.
- Exercise consideration, respect and empathy in your speech and actions. Remember, we have all been through different stages of learning when adopting technologies.
- Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behavior and speech.
- Disagreements on things are fine, argumentative behaviour or trolling are not.

- Do not post or display sexually explicit or violent material.
- Do not post or threaten to post other people’s personally identifying information ("doxing").
- Do not make personal insults, particularly those related to gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, or disability.

- Do not advocate for, or encourage, any of the above behavior.
How to report issues
If someone is acting inappropriately or violating this Code of Conduct in any shape or form, and they are not receptive to your feedback or you prefer not to confront them, please get in touch with one of the Administrators. The main Administrators are Ilya Ryzhenkov (@orangy), Hadi Hariri (@hhariri) and Roman Belov (@roman.belov).
Basic Usage Guidelines
There are over 17000 users on many different timezones using the Kotlin Slack and the number is growing rapidly. The influx of messages per day and the numerous channels can lead to a lot of noise and little value in the long run. If we all follow a set of guidelines, it can help make things more useful and bearable for everyone.
- Please remember this is a Slack team for Kotlin. If you have generic questions that are about a technology (which may or may not be used with Kotlin), maybe it’s better to use another forum, such as StackOverflow.
- This Slack is not an official support channel. It is a place where the community hang out along with some members of the JetBrains/Kotlin team (suffix [JB]). For official support, please use the Kotlin Forums, where messages are also persisted.
- This Slack is not the best place for reporting bugs either. For this, please use YouTrack.
- Find the right channel to ask your question. There are channels for pretty much every topic. For a list of some of the channels see below.
- New channels should be focused around a well-known technology or area of interest. Create them sparingly. And before creating a new channel, make sure it doesn’t exist in any other shape or form. If you do end up creating a channel, make sure you set the topic.
- When you ask a question, please be patient. Don’t repeat it. Or at least not immediately.
- Please do not ping or mention someone directly to get your questions answered, specially project owners, whether the project is Kotlin or other, unless they specifically indicate that you can.
- Don’t split messages into multiple ones. Ask it all in a single message.
- Use code blocks. Don’t paste code as plain text. Slack supports Kotlin markup. If the code you are pasting is longer than a few lines, use "Code or text snippet" available from + menu next to message input. Only first few lines will be displayed to all users and people interested in the code can expand your code to look into details.
- While it’s polite to say “Hi” or “I have a question” before asking something, it doesn’t scale and leads to noise. You can say hello in the same message you ask the question if you like.
- Using threads is not required, but do take into account that it does allow people to more easily follow conversations, especially those jumping in late.
- Use reactions to show gratitude as opposed to a message. It reduces the noise and gets the message across.
- Don’t use reactions to tell people they’re in the wrong place or asking the wrong question. If they’re on the wrong channel, point them to the right one. If their question is badly worded, help them correct it. Have empathy.
- Take into account cultural differences. As they say, what the British say isn’t what the British mean. Remember this both as the receiver and producer of messages.
- Don’t create integrations with Slack. Given this is running on the free tier, the number is limited and thus it won’t be approved.
- @channel, @here and other forms of notifications are disabled, even if you own a channel (unfortunately Slack doesn’t allow fine-grained permissions).
- Use the #meta channel if you’re unsure about how to do something.
Common Channels
This is a list of some of the most popular channels, as well as a sample of the types of channels available.
- #android. For Android generic topics
- #getting-started. For more beginner questions. Better ask here than in #general if you’re new to Kotlin
- #communities. A place to discuss physical communities. Also search for cities/countries as there are often channels with these names (#australia), as well as languages (i.e. #spanish).

We are graduates of the six-month Full-Stack Development program at Nashville Software School. It is an intensive, hands-on, project-driven learning environment, and an all-around incredible experience. From the website:
"This bootcamp is the ultimate challenge on the road to a new career as a programmer. It’s intense—as in five days per week, hands-on, writing lots of code. There are regular individual and group projects, and the daily introduction of new material and best practices. It’s a fast-moving and rigorous journey where you will learn a lot about programming and, coincidentally, about yourself.
The Web Developer Bootcamp is an intellectually stimulating, horizon broadening, energizing, and fun experience. Students emerge with the skills necessary to build ideas from concept to production. By the end of the program, you will find yourself prepared for an entry-level software developer position."
There are many other programs happening at NSS, both day and night. The courses are continually evolving to meet the needs of the Nashville tech community. You should check out the website. Seriously, Nashville Software School is the best!
All the members of Cohort 20 have come from different backgrounds, but we've undertaken together this pivot into the world of software development. We are each taking our different experiences, learning styles, and problem-solving approaches to do something entirely new to all of us. We have quickly learned that enthusiam, hard work and insatiable curiosity are essential in our journey.
This is a journey which started fast and rarely let up. We have learned the essentials of the front-end, using HTML, CSS, and Javascript to control the structural, presentational, and interactive aspects of the web platform in the browser. We have picked up many tools and libraries along the way to aid in managing increasingly complex challenges and solutions. The value of working in cohesive teams was always emphasized, but became absolutely essential as we progressed. As we moved into the backend with Node.js, we learned to grapple with Javascript in even greater depth. The projects became ever more complex and expansive, and we have learned the value of effective project management.
By now, we've all gained both hard-won skills and a desire to keep learning. Our cohort members have developed friendships and connections with each other and with the Nashville tech community. Going forward, our paths diverge as we each pursue the next step in our own career and life journey.
Thanks to the staff of the Nashville Software School, the Nashville development community, and especially to our teaching team: Steven Holmes, Jufe Brown-Tsai, Greg Korte and Joe Shepherd.

An old sketch drawn for Ello Mobile


My name is Cheong Kar Lai but I go by my alias, Elizabeth! It's very nice to meet you!
I'm a student currently in my final year at the National University of Singapore. My course of study is Economics but I have a diverse range of interests from science to computing. I took a forensic science minor as well as online coding courses during my candidature to satisfy my curiousity!
This semester, I took IT1001 to learn more about the evolution of computers throughout history and to create my own webpage. I hope you enjoy my site so far and do stay on to read the rest of my life stories!
I have been staying in the College of Alice & Peter Tan (CAPT) in University Town (UTown) for the past four years so I guess I am a good candidate to ask about campus life! UTown is a vibrant student space with many student-led events as well as external events that take place throughout the year. It can be reached by the NUS Internal Shuttle Bus D, or by walking from the main campus via the pedestrian link bridge just next to the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum.
CAPT is located deep within UTown and the closest bus stop to get to CAPT is actually opposite New Town Secondary School (at the Clementi side). CAPT prides itself as a community engagement college, working with various beneficiaries in Singapore to raise awareness on issues such as the plights of migrant workers in Singapore. CAPT was only three years old when I joined the community and now it has become my home away from home. I made many friends and memories during my four years there. My favourite part about residential college life is getting the rare opportunity to know my Professors on a personal level since they stay in the college with us students and we get to interact with them and their families.
CAPT also has a variety of interest groups and reading groups to join. From baking to magic, philosophy to board games, there is no end to the types of interest groups students and professors can form in CAPT. As a student in CAPT, I am greatly blessed to have been able to be a part of CAPT’s badminton club, magic club, table tennis club, baking club, gaming club, computing club, etc. I also got to try my hand at martial arts such as Jiujitsu as well as play some ultimate frisbee and volleyball. Living in CAPT means never having a boring day as there are always new things to try, new things to learn and new projects that can be developed to give back to the community.
I also participated in various CAPT committees and projects during my time there. From international student symposiums to alumni events, I have been lucky to be able to hone my leadership skills and event-planning skills by organising such events. Through these events, I have also been able to meet individuals from all walks of life and I have gotten to know their communities at a deeper level. As I approach my final semester in NUS and in CAPT, I feel that the many friendships I have made, the many projects that I have planned and implemented, and the many memories I have made will serve me well as I open a new chapter of my life after graduation.
Overall, NUS has given me a holistic and fulfilling university experience. In my third year, I was lucky to have the opportunity to go on exchange with one of NUS’s partner universities in Stockholm, Sweden. There, I got to experience education from a different perspective and I made many international friends who each had different stories to share. Frankly, living in Stockholm felt quite similar to living in Singapore, just that most shops closed by 8pm. The professors taught in English, although students were allowed to submit their assignments in Swedish so that was pretty cool.
The Swedes placed a greater emphasis on learning since they had no cumulative grade point average required to be maintained. As an exchange student, I was also not graded and so I jumped on that chance to try a Masters-level module in the Business faculty.
Of course, no exchange experience is complete without the chance to travel. Sweden is optimally located in the Scandinavian region and it was easy to travel around Europe from there. I managed to visit countries such as Germany, Poland, Ireland, Netherlands, Austria, Norway and even Iceland! I was enthralled by the beauty of European churches, got to taste the freshest of foods at farmers’ markets and experienced quiet tranquility with the beauty of nature. It was a refreshing break from city life since nature and I could become one. Some highlights of my travels would definitely be meeting my online friend of 10 years in the Netherlands, seeing snow, and getting to watch a geyser spew hot water 30 metres into the air in Iceland.
To see more photos and stories of my travels, you can follow me on Instagram at the link below!

For every Facebook photoset showing off 21st birthday parties full of people who shared the same primary school 10 years earlier but haven’t had much to do with each other since or a hired out community hall elaborately decorated but not full of many people at all, I feel further vindicated by my decision to skip having my own 21st birthday party all together.
I don’t like birthday parties to begin with. I’d rather celebrate real achievements or celebrate for no reason at all than congratulate myself for staying alive while time has passed. Birthday parties feel like organised attention seeking and make me feel like I’m cheating. Twenty firsts are everything I hate about birthday parties multiplied.

Beloved
I haven't read _Beloved_, but I can see why it was a prize-winning novel. The story is of Sethe, her daughter Denver, and Paul D., who are former slaves being terrorized by a poltergeist. Digging deeper, the "ghost" aspect serves as a complex allegory of the past, and it evokes sentiments of mystery, awe, beauty, and repressed horror.
The film "Beloved" evokes no such sentiment. If ever there were to be a textbook case of a film with noble intentions, a stellar cast, a reputable director, and a stellar Oscar-baiting campaign, doomed, doomed, doomed, due to the miscasting of that single pivotal figure, this is it.
That character is played by Thandie Newton, and her performance is god-awful. She isn't mysterious. She isn't horrifying. She doesn't evoke the central metaphor of repressed emotions of slavery. She evokes the cheese of Roger Corman and Ed Wood, sans charisma.
For example, to evoke terror, she speaks in breathy monotone, shifting her jaw to the right. Scary? Why, it's flat-out hilarious! Gusts of laughter were heard in the screening I attended.
The rest of the cast is in an entirely different league. Oprah Winfrey is good as Sethe, but this is familiar terrain for those who have seen her in _Native Son_. Danny Glover suffices, though he's just playing himself. The real surprise is Kimberly Elise. She's fantastic, in the same way that Natalie Portman and Claire Danes are beyond their years.  Elise's performance was the single reason why I weathered the entirity of the film.
At three hours, the film is too long, and perhaps could do without some scenes of Grandma preaching in the woods. Further, it could have done without the multiple gross-out scenes that have nothing to do with the central theme of slavery. Ants crawling on a young woman? A dog's eye poked out? Oprah urinating? A pregnant naked woman shrieking in public? Still reading this?
Back to the title character. Perhaps the character was so hard to portray that no casting could have sufficed (a possible exception would be the Caucasian Emily Watson, who treaded familiar ground successfully in _Breaking the Waves_). Perhaps it would have been better to underwrite Beloved's character so completely, that all we see is an invisible person, and the family's reaction to her.
My point being, as long as the mysterious Beloved is described with words, she would remain an indelible creation of our own imaginations. But because Jonathan Demme and Oprah had chosen to be explicit in the film's portrayal of the title character, the mystery is gone, and what results is the impossible fusion of the important period piece and a campy horror film. And like oil and water, they just don't mix.
Who was this film made for? Patrons who enjoy campy horror fluff would not want to sit thru a three-hour self-important message film, and the prestigious artsy types would not want any campy gore with their delectable Oscar-bait delight.
_That_ is the reason why this film bombed.  It's that if we want to laugh at a movie, we want to make sure that the film was _supposed_ to be funny.

Our vision is to win souls through the preaching, teaching and witnessing to them the word of god and baptizing them in the name of Jesus Christ. To make true disciples of our members by educating and training our members so that they may go and spread his word wherever they go. The church strives to win souls. “where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.” proverbs 29:18
We believe the Holy Scriptures to be the divinely inbreathed, infallible, inerrant and authoritative Word of God.
We believe in Christ’s Lordship of the Church, the observance of the ordinances of Christian baptism by immersion for believers, and the Lord’s Supper.

I can't tell you the number of IT Professionals (whether developers, sys admins, etc.) who have told me that it's not worth their time to learn regular expressions. I thought that way at one point, but now I'm astounded at that thought. Regular Expressions are one of the most powerful tools available for working with data.
I'm currently working on a tool that reads /proc/net/tcp. Trying to parse that without regular expressions would be dozens of lines of code. With regular expressions (in Python) I have a one-liner to parse each line of the file. And that's for a file that's intended to be machine-readable. (Though, admittedly, /proc/net/tcp is a lot less machine-readable than, say, /etc/passwd.)
The authors of the RE engines have done the hard work and figured out how to optimize the parsing of the lines and matching the RE. For stupidly simple cases, an RE may be slower, but once you get to complex parsing, it's much easier.
The only thing I haven't figured out is how to parse values that don't conform to a particular order (ala GNU getopts).

domestic | energy | commissioning building services | 2010
Every
building
must be designed and
constructed
in such a way that
energy supply systems and
building
services which use fuel or power
for heating, lighting, ventilating and cooling the internal environment
and heating the water, are commissioned to achieve optimum energy
efficiency.
Limitation:
This standard does not apply to:
(a)
major power plants serving the National Grid;
(b)
the process and emergency lighting components of a
building
;
(c)
heating provided solely for the purpose of frost protection; or
(d)
energy supply systems used solely for industrial and commercial
processes, leisure use and emergency use within a
building
.
6.7.0 Introduction
Commissioning in terms of this section means, raising the
building
services
systems covered by this guidance from a level of static completion to full
working order and achieving the levels of energy efficiency that the
component manufacturers expect from their product(s). Commissioning
however, should also be carried out with a view to enabling the safe
operation of the installation.
Although there is no requirement within section 6 for minimum efficiency
levels of either,
building
-integrated or localised energy supply systems (e.g.
diesel generators, micro wind turbines or photovoltaic arrays), there is a need
for commissioning to be carried out to enable efficient use, unless they are
exempt under schedule 1, regulation 3. Major power plants which serve a
to the National Grid will also need to be commissioned, unless exempt in
terms of schedule 1, regulation 3.
In the case of
conversions
, as specified in regulation 4, the
building
as
converted
shall meet the requirement of this standard (regulation 12,
schedule 6).

Bigg Boss 13: Hindustani Bhau's wife files police complaint; read why
Ashwini also requested media not to take interviews of the fake relatives and not to upload wrong videos and messages.
by DECCAN CHRONICLEMumbai: Bigg Boss 13 contestant Vikas Fhatak aka Hindustani Bhau's wife Ashwini has filed a written complaint in Khar police station regarding incorrect statements made against her husband on social media.
As per IANS report, the handwritten letter dated November 24 states, "many incorrect and fake messages, statements, videos are made against Hindustani Bhau. People are addressing themselves as family members, mentioning themselves as brothers, aunt, are no one to him. Our family includes my mother-in-law, my son, my mother, father, Hindustani Bhau’s nephew Sandesh. This letter is to inform that in case any misconduct or misuse is done by any outside person, we are not responsible for the same.”
Ashwini also requested media not to take interviews of the "fake relatives and not to upload wrong videos and messages against Vikas Fhatak which will create controversies”.
Meanwhile, Hindustani Bhau is known for his opinion videos on YouTube. The YouTuber is popular amongst the masses for bashing people who say nasty things about India.


HEAVEN'S PRISONERS A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1996 James Berardinelli
RATING (0 TO 10): 5.0 Alternative Scale: ** out of ****
United States, 1996 U.S. Release Date: 5/17/96 (wide) Running Length: 2:12 MPAA Classification: R (Violence, profanity, nudity) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: 1.85:1
Cast: Alec Baldwin, Mary Stuart Masterson, Kelly Lynch, Teri Hatcher, Eric Roberts, Vondie Curtis-Hall, Samantha Lagpacan Director: Phil Joanou Producers: Leslie Greif, Andre E. Morgan, and Albert S. Ruddy Screenplay: Harley Peyton and Scott Frank based on the novel by James Lee Burke Cinematography: Harris Savides Music: George Fenton U.S. Distributor: New Line Cinema/Savoy Pictures
HEAVEN'S PRISONERS tries very hard not to admit what it really is. By throwing a tangled web of incoherent subplots into the mix, screenwriters Harley Peyton and Scott Frank (GET SHORTY), adapting James Lee Burke's novel, have cleverly concealed the fact that this movie is actually a revenge thriller. Unfortunately, this camouflage has resulted in an overlong, convoluted story that's of limited entertainment value. Had director Phil Joanou (FINAL ANALYSIS) attempted something in the more straightforward style of DEATH WISH, his picture might have worked better. It certainly wouldn't have dragged on for more than two hours.
It's inevitable that, in any movie featuring an alcoholic ex-cop who starts the film on the wagon, there will be some point when he takes a drink. This is just one of many cliches employed by HEAVEN'S PRISONERS. The ex-cop is Dave Robicheaux (Alec Baldwin), a one-time lieutenant on the New Orleans Police Force who got burned out, and, accompanied by his loyal, loving wife, Annie (Kelly Lynch), retired to the bayous, where he operates a bait shop. Dave's new, laid-back life agrees with him -- he looks good and feels great, even if he occasionally gets a craving to down a beer.
 Dave investigates the accident site, where he rescues the sole survivor, a Spanish-speaking little girl. Through a series of rather hard-to-swallow plot contrivances, the child, named Alafair (Samantha Lagpacan), comes to live with the Robicheauxes as an unofficially adopted daughter. But Alafair has a dangerous pedigree. Suddenly, Dave and Annie are receiving some ominous visitors -- hitmen, drug lords, and DEA agents. All of them have one message: keep your nose out of our business. Of course, these warnings pique Dave's curiosity. He stops by to see Robin Gaddis (Mary Stuart Masterson), a strung-out stripper friend with knowledge and contacts, then drops in on a former schoolmate-turned-crime kingpin, Bubba Rocque (Eric Roberts), and his slutty wife, Claudette (Teri Hatcher). For Dave, the price of these visits is steep and bloody.
There's a lot going on in HEAVEN'S PRISONERS, but most of it amounts to very little. The entire background story, which involves dead Federal agents, dueling crime lords, unfaithful wives, and all sorts of unsavory dealings, becomes window dressing for Dave's vengeance. He goes after one bad guy after another, and, no matter how many he kills, there always seems to be someone else. All this leads to an ending that, after one-hundred thirty-plus minutes of watching and waiting, is a big letdown.
Although the characters are all flat stereotypes, that's no excuse for some of the bad acting. Alec Baldwin has a narrow range in which he can be effective; HEAVEN'S PRISONERS frequently makes dramatic demands upon him that he is unwilling or unable to fulfill. The result is an uninteresting, occasionally-overwrought performance. Kelly Lynch is dull as the dutiful wife. Mary Stuart Masterson, who normally is solid, fails to convince as a "bad girl" (much like in the movie of that title). Teri Hatcher (of TV's LOIS AND CLARK fame) plays a superficial femme fatale whose Southern accent is as on-and-off as her clothing. Only a delightful Eric Roberts and Vondie Curtis-Hall (as a DEA agent) can boast any credibility.
Presumably, HEAVEN'S PRISONERS is an attempt to elevate the revenge genre to an newer, more interesting level by including themes of redemption and responsibility. The problem is that retribution in the movies is a vicious, nasty business, and all the extraneous plot elements needlessly encumber the story. Co-writer Scott Frank, who penned MALICE (with Aaron Sorkin) and DEAD AGAIN, is known for twisty scripts, but this one loses itself in the maze. There are too many characters working with too little new material. In fact, this movie is so long-winded and repetitious that there are times when viewers of HEAVEN'S PRISONERS will feel like they're serving a sentence.

Technical: Version Control Concept 4/11/2015
What are the benefits of version control? Version control allows coder to keep track of different changes made to the code. The benefits is to allow users to easily go back to previous version of code if there's a mistake being made. Think of version control as a check point when playing a video game!
How does git help you keep track of changes? Git helps you git track of it by allowing you to add a modified file to stage, and determining if it's worth the change before commiting to it.
Why use Github to store your code? Think of github as an online place where you can access that file anywhere without your personal computer. It also allows online collaboration where different programmers can merge their code online and keep track of different changes.

Scala Guide
Introduction
We provide Keras-Style API based on Keras 1.2.2 in Analytics Zoo for the sake of user-friendliness. Users, especially those familiar with Keras, can easily use our API to create an Analytics Zoo model and train, evaluate or tune it in a distributed fashion.
To define a model in Scala using the Keras-Style API, now one just need to import the following packages:
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.layers._
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.models._
import com.intel.analytics.bigdl.utils.Shape
One of the highlighted features with regard to the new API is shape inference. Users only need to specify the input shape (a Shape
object excluding batch dimension, for example, inputShape=Shape(3, 4)
for 3D input) for the first layer of a model and for the remaining layers, the input dimension will be automatically inferred.
Shape
Input and output shapes of a model in the Keras-Style API are described by the Shape
object in Scala, which can be classified into SingleShape
and MultiShape
.
SingleShape
is just a list of Int indicating shape dimensions while MultiShape
is essentially a list of Shape
.
Example code to create a shape:
// create a SingleShape
val shape1 = Shape(3, 4)
// create a MultiShape consisting of two SingleShape
val shape2 = Shape(List(Shape(1, 2, 3), Shape(4, 5, 6)))
You can use method toSingle()
to cast a Shape
to a SingleShape
. Similarly, use toMulti()
to cast a Shape
to a MultiShape
.
Define a model
You can define a model either using Sequential API or Functional API. Remember to specify the input shape for the first layer.
After creating a model, you can call the following methods:
getInputShape()
getOutputShape()
- Return the input or output shape of a model, which is a
Shape
object. ForSingleShape
, the first entry is-1
representing the batch dimension. For a model with multiple inputs or outputs, it will return aMultiShape
.
setName(name)
- Set the name of the model.
Sequential API
The model is described as a linear stack of layers in the Sequential API. Layers can be added into the Sequential
container one by one and the order of the layers in the model will be the same as the insertion order.
To create a sequential container:
Sequential()
Example code to create a sequential model:
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.layers.{Dense, Activation}
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.models.Sequential
import com.intel.analytics.bigdl.utils.Shape
val model = Sequential[Float]()
model.add(Dense[Float](32, inputShape = Shape(128)))
model.add(Activation[Float]("relu"))
Functional API
The model is described as a graph in the Functional API. It is more convenient than the Sequential API when defining some complex model (for example, a model with multiple outputs).
To create an input node:
Input(inputShape = null, name = null)
Parameters:
inputShape
: AShape
object indicating the shape of the input node, not including batch.name
: String to set the name of the input node. If not specified, its name will by default to be a generated string.
To create a graph container:
Model(input, output)
Parameters:
input
: An input node or an array of input nodes.output
: An output node or an array of output nodes.
To merge a list of input nodes (NOT layers), following some merge mode in the Functional API:
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.layers.Merge.merge
merge(inputs, mode = "sum", concatAxis = -1) // This will return an output NODE.
Parameters:
inputs
: A list of node instances. Must be more than one node.mode
: Merge mode. String, must be one of: 'sum', 'mul', 'concat', 'ave', 'cos', 'dot', 'max'. Default is 'sum'.concatAxis
: Int, axis to use when concatenating nodes. Only specify this when merge mode is 'concat'. Default is -1, meaning the last axis of the input.
Example code to create a graph model:
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.layers.{Dense, Input}
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.layers.Merge.merge
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.models.Model
import com.intel.analytics.bigdl.utils.Shape
// instantiate input nodes
val input1 = Input[Float](inputShape = Shape(8))
val input2 = Input[Float](inputShape = Shape(6))
// call inputs() with an input node and get an output node
val dense1 = Dense[Float](10).inputs(input1)
val dense2 = Dense[Float](10).inputs(input2)
// merge two nodes following some merge mode
val output = merge(inputs = List(dense1, dense2), mode = "sum")
// create a graph container
val model = Model[Float](Array(input1, input2), output)
Layers
See here for all the available layers for the Keras-Style API.
To set the name of a layer, call the method setName(name)
of the layer.
LeNet Example
Here we adopt our Keras-Style API to define a LeNet CNN model to be trained on the MNIST dataset:
import com.intel.analytics.bigdl.numeric.NumericFloat
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.layers._
import com.intel.analytics.zoo.pipeline.api.keras.models._
import com.intel.analytics.bigdl.utils.Shape
