4 out of ****
Starring Xue Bai, Wang Xueyin, Tan Tuo, Liu Quiang Directed by Chen Kaige Written by Chen and Zhang Ziliang, from a novel by Ke Lan Cinematography by Zhang Yimou
Fate has two aspects in YELLOW EARTH, and both are pitiless. There is the fate decreed by nature, and there is the fate decreed by society. Young Cuiqiao (Xue Bai), a teenage girl in the rural Chinese region of Shaanxi, struggles against both these forces. She does not desire the marriage that has been arranged for her by her father. She would leave if she could, but it's 200 miles to Yenan, where she might join the Communist Army and escape the role her father has assigned her.
Society and the natural world conspire against her, but she is not even aware that other options exist until Gu (Wang Xueyin), a Communist, comes to stay in her farming community. He has come to gather folk songs, to bring back as inspiration for the army. He tells Cuiqiao about female comrades who crop their hair, who can fight the Japanese, who can read and write. "They have great spirit!" he says. "Oh," she replies, and she begins to consider the possibilities.
Meanwhile, she and her father (Tan Tuo) and her brother (Liu Quiang) go about their lives, while Gu studies them, asks questions, watches them live off the land. The land is an awesome presence in YELLOW EARTH, magnificent and imposing. In the flow of the river, the expanse of the sky, the sweep of the mountainside, there is a sense of space and freedom; at the same time, these landscapes overwhelm the people, and there is a sense of entrapment. They land provides for them, but they are also at its mercy.
We see water being gathered in buckets from the river, plough-blades turning up the earth: in these pastoral moments, the film surrenders to the rhythms of the natural world. There is a bond with the earth, an intimacy. It's not surprising that cinematographer Zhang Yimou grew up in this area: he sees it so vividly. But nature can be harsh. There is a drought; the earth becomes dry and dusty; food becomes scarce. The farmers pray for rain, and nature is oblivious. Meanwhile, Cuiqiao, trapped by the vast, indomitable landscape and the stifling social codes of her people, continues to weigh her options. Which fate is better?
Cuiqiao's sister is married to a man who beats her. Gu asks her father why she must live such a hard life. "Fate," he replies, as if that explained everything. In his mind, it does. But this so-called "fate" is simply the refusal to allow for other possibilities; as such, it is merely another name for oppression. Gu--who the film treats quite sympathetically--does not approve of the father's fatalism, but he too will fail Cuiqiao, and his failure is the failure of Communism. The movie ends with a stirring Maoist song--"The Communist Party will save us all!"--played over an image that makes the words savagely ironic. You need to see the movie to appreciate its full impact, but the censors who subjected the film to their humourless appraisal must have been immune to irony. Gu and the father are both guilty of the same sin: they can change Cuiqiao's "fate," but they don't, because it is easier not to. Nature may be harsh, but at least she plays fair.
YELLOW EARTH is a landmark film. With Zhang Junzhao's ONE AND EIGHT (1984), it launched the Fifth Generation of Chinese filmmakers. Zhang Yimou was the cinematographer on both films, and has since become the best-known director of the group, who are probably the most exciting filmmakers currently at work. On an artistic level, they're exciting because they make great movies, plain and simple. On a political level, they're exciting because they manage to make bold, subversive statements despite their government's best efforts to prevent them. YELLOW EARTH is a wonderful work of art, but it's also a fascinating study in the ways political artists can express themselves, even when limited by rigid restrictions.
Chen's later movies FAREWELL MY CONCUBINE and TEMPTRESS MOON were both banned in China, yet YELLOW EARTH escaped that fate, even though it manifests a profound disillusionment with Communism. You can't do anything about a drought, but you can give the people of your country--or your daughter--a better life, if you choose to do so. But the men in this movie are incapable of such a choice. You'd have better luck praying to the gods for rain.

Directives
Let's dive into Angular and look into what Directives are. An Angular Directive extends HTML attributes by placing markers on a HTML tag which tells Angular to run or reference JavaScript code on the marked HTML node and any of that HTML node's children. Directives allow you to write HTML that expresses the behavior of your application. The first directive we will use is ng-app
, which will initialize your Angular application in the DOM.

Last week we introduced a new blog series, “Meet the Curators of SteemSTEM” and our first post was a very interesting interview with our first curator @ruth-girl.
@ruth-girl described when and how she became a curator for SteemSTEM, revealed what she loves reading about when curating and provided us with some very useful tips for STEM (but not exlusively STEM!) authors.
Let’s read some information about what the Curators do and let us interrogate, uhm sorry, I mean interview @aboutcoolscience!
## The Curators of SteemSTEM
What do they do? Well, their tasks include searching for new STEM authors, evaluating and reviewing STEM articles, conducting thorough searches for plagiarism and they are the people who will suggest whether or not a STEM article has to be upvoted and supported by @steemstem.
### Let’s get to know the Curators better, shall we?
A community gets bigger and stronger as its members work together, get to know each other, learn from each other. Evolve. Flourish.
Who are the curators of SteemSTEM? How long are they going through the STEM posts? What makes a post unique according to them? Is their job easy? We are planning to interview the SteemSTEM curators with the goal and hope to inspire you and to shed more light about how the curation process works. In our first interview, @ruth-girl revealed many curation secrets .. What could be next? In this post @aboutcoolscience is interviewed by @katerinaramm! If you have any extra questions or thoughts, feel free to let someone from the PR team know! ##Let the curtain open!
If you are interested in biology, you surely have read posts of @aboutcoolscience. Some of his most interesting blogs include T-Cells, some interesting ways to defy death and I am sure you would want to know more about prolonged youth!
Curating both English and Italian STEM blogs, @aboutcoolscience has been asked to let us know what positive or negative impressions he gets about posts and gives us some useful tips.
Plus there is a bonus question, so make sure to read the whole interview!
–
Q - Hi @aboutcoolscience, thank you for taking the time to reply to our questions! Let us know a few things about yourself: What is your real (first) name? What do you do, where are you from, how long have you been on Steem and what are your hobbies?
A - Ciao! My name is Gianluca, I’m from Italy but I moved to the US for my postdoc few years ago and now I’m a scientist. I used to have many hobbies like cycling, hiking and going for long walks with friends. However, a year ago I joined Steem and my activities on the platform increased so much in the last few months that I had to give up many of my previous hobbies. However, now I am involved in several communities on this platform and I am interacting with so many great people, so it’s definitely worth it.
—-
Q - How long have you been a curator for SteemSTEM?
A - I’ve been a curator since early 2018.
—
Q - How and when did it all start?
A - I did not become a curator right away. When I joined Steem there was much more activity (Steem price was higher) and there were bigger issues with spam also with the SteemSTEM tag, so it was difficult to get noticed and to receive support. I remember asking SteemSTEM if they could support other language communities because several science posts were not supported in other languages (like in the Italian community). So initially, I became the curator for the Italian sub-community and I founded @itastem. I am happy to see that today we can also support several other languages.
—
Q - How often do you curate?
A - I try to curate every day. It’s not always easy to find the time because I have a hectic schedule but I do what I can.
—-
—
Q - What is the first thing that you take into consideration when curating?
A - Am I going to remember anything about this post in 2 days? Posts should be informative and give value to the reader, surprise them and make them curious about the topic.
— Q - Tell us something that really gives you a great first impression when you see a SteemSTEM post. (It could have to do with the chosen topic, images, structure etc) A - Choosing the right topic is important but it’s also important to do some research on the topic. It’s challenging to convey several new concepts in a short text but it’s something I take into consideration when I evaluate a post. So I value posts with high density of information conveyed in a easy to read format. I know it’s not easy to do that but that’s what I consider a quality post. — — Q - Do you have a favorite scientific topic that you have fun reading and reviewing over any others? A - I like to read about things I did not know before, usually I prefer biology posts because it’s my field but if something is well written I don’t mind reading it. Users should consider that if something is on Wikipedia it means it’s probably common knowledge and nothing new. —- Q - Tell us something that really makes you disappointed when you see a SteemSTEM post. (It could have to do with the chosen topic, images, structure etc) A - I hate when I find that a post is plagiarized. It’s disrepectful towards the original author but also towards the curator that has to read something that has been copy/pasted. I can do better things with my time… — Q - What would be your advice to both the old and new authors who wish to join SteemSTEM but do not know where to start? A - Be patient and have some humility. The first thing most users get frustrated about is why their “wonderful” post did not receive the same support as other posts. But if you look thoroughly you start seeing that maybe their post did not have a clear structure, the topic chosen was not interesting or they simply put down a few concepts randomly so they can tell themselves they did their homework. They should ask themselves: is this something I would want to read? It’s sad but I think some users can’t even stand to read their own posts. In general it takes time to build a reputation and cultivate a following, if your first post did not receive much attention it’s normal, it means you need to get more involved in the community because probably nobody knows you. — Q - If you could interview anyone from SteemSTEM, who would it be? A - I have a chance to interact with many of them already but probably new users don’t know well the founders of SteemStem, what about @justtryme90? — Q - If you could have any job in the world, what would you choose? A - I like learning, that’s why I’m a scientist but there are many things I don’t like about academia and how it’s structured. Maybe being an independent writer would allow some freedom and a better work/life balance. — Q - Would you like to tell us what other projects you support besides SteemSTEM? A - I do many things besides SteemSTEM, I am one of the users behind the DaVinci witness, we also recently started a collaboration with @utopian-io for the translation of open source projects so currently we work with more than 100 translators on this mission and I am pleased to see that our community is growing almost daily. — Q - Could you describe in as few words as possible what science means to you? A - Science is curiosity, but the aim should not be just to accumulate knowledge but also its dissemination. To do that you must be a good communicator, I think a drawing I commissioned a while ago to @pab.ink explains it all: Which comes from a quote by Einstein: “It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure.” So the communication aspect is very important for the dissemination of knowledge. — Q - And here is a (described as ‘hard’) question I was advised to ask :) Hint: You don’t have to reply… but it will surely be fun to! Which metal has more value to society, Adamantium or Vibranium? (credits for the question to @mobbs) A - I guess Adamantium, everyone likes Wolverine :) — Q - What is your wish for SteemSTEM? A - To continue to grow and to see more participation from the users. — Q - Where do you see yourself in 5 years? A - I may like to go back to Europe someday, I still have too much to see there. — Q - Where do you see SteemSTEM in 5 years? A - I would not be surprised if SteemSTEM starts working more closely with professionals and educational institutions, who knows.. —- I would like to thank Gianluca a lot for the time he took replying to all my questions! — @aboutcoolscience is also the founder of @itastem and if you are an Italian reading this post, you can consider writing STEM in Italiano. ——– Read our last Distilled #79 || Get Incentives for promoting steemSTEM || Vote for steemSTEM Witness || Visit our new home steemstem.io Image Source 1 - Image Source 2

Libraries common throughout Nova or just ones that haven’t been categorized very well yet.
RequestContext: context for requests that persist through all of nova.
Bases: object
Security context and request information.
Represents the user taking a given action within the system.
Return a version of this context with admin flag set.
Nova base exception handling.
Includes decorator for re-raising Nova-type exceptions.
SHOULD include dedicated exception logging.

 That message will get printf’d with the keyword arguments provided to the constructor.

This is useful in a couple of decorators where we don’t know much about the function we’re wrapping.
This decorator wraps a method to catch any exceptions that may get thrown. It logs the exception as well as optionally sending it to the notification system.
Command-line flag library.
Emulates gflags by wrapping cfg.ConfigOpts.
The idea is to move fully to cfg eventually, and this wrapper is a stepping stone.
Bases: exceptions.Exception
Base classes for our unit tests.
Allows overriding of flags for use of fakes, and some black magic for inline callbacks.
Bases: unittest.case.TestCase
Test case base class for all unit tests.
Assert a list of dicts are equivalent.
Assert two dicts are equivalent.
This is a ‘deep’ match in the sense that it handles nested dictionaries appropriately.
NOTE:
If you don’t care (or don’t know) a given value, you can specify the string DONTCARE as the value. This will cause that dict-item to be skipped.
Python < v2.7 compatibility. Assert ‘a’ in ‘b’
Python < v2.7 compatibility. Assert ‘a’ is Instance of ‘b’
Python < v2.7 compatibility. Assert ‘a’ NOT in ‘b’
Assert that a particular exception is not raised.
If exc_class is None, then we assert that no error is raised.
Otherwise, we assert that only a particular error wasn’t raised; if any different exceptions were raised, we just silently capture them and return.
Assert a sub_dict is subset of super_dict.
Override flag variables for a test.
Run before each test method to initialize test environment.
Runs after each test method to tear down test environment.
Bases: exceptions.Exception
Bases: object
Decorator that skips a test if condition is true.
Decorator that skips a test if running in fake mode.
Bases: object
Decorator that skips a test.
Bases: object
Decorator that skips a test if condition is not true.
Utilities and helper functions.
alias of _PosixLock
Bases: object
A pluggable backend loaded lazily based on some value.
Bases: object
Bases: exceptions.Exception
Exception to break out and stop a LoopingCall.
The poll-function passed to LoopingCall can raise this exception to break out of the loop normally. This is somewhat analogous to StopIteration.
An optional return-value can be included as the argument to the exception; this return-value will be returned by LoopingCall.wait()
Bases: object
Provides a mechanism to facilitate rolling back a series of actions when an exception is raised.
Rollback a series of actions then re-raise the exception.
Note
(sirp) This should only be called within an exception handler.
Convert a string representation of a bool into a bool value
Checks that obj is of type cls, and lets PyLint infer types.
Convert a value or list into a list of dicts
delete a file, but ignore file not found error
Return a dict describing how to change orig to new. The keys correspond to values that have changed; the value will be a list of one or two elements. The first element of the list will be either ‘+’ or ‘-‘, indicating whether the key was updated or deleted; if the key was updated, the list will contain a second element, giving the updated value.
Create a directory (and any ancestor directories required)
| Parameters: | path – Directory to create |
|---|
Helper method to execute command with optional retry.
If you add a run_as_root=True command, don’t forget to add the corresponding filter to etc/nova/rootwrap.d !
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Raises: |
|
| Returns: | a tuple, (stdout, stderr) from the spawned process, or None if the command fails. |
Open file
see built-in file() documentation for more details
Recursively flatten a nested dictionary.
Generate the URL to glance.
Generate an image URL from an image_ref.
Generate an Ethernet MAC address.
Generate a random password from the supplied symbol groups.
At least one symbol from each group will be included. Unpredictable results if length is less than the number of symbol groups.
Believed to be reasonably secure (with a reasonable password length!)
Returns a list of items matching the specified path.
Takes an XPath-like expression e.g. prop1/prop2/prop3, and for each item in items, looks up items[prop1][prop2][prop3]. Like XPath, if any of the intermediate results are lists it will treat each list item individually. A ‘None’ in items or any child expressions will be ignored, this function will not throw because of None (anywhere) in items. The returned list will contain no None values.
Generate a hash for the contents of a file.
For our purposes, a UUID is a string in canonical form:
aaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa
Check if the provided string is a valid bool string or not.
Check if the provided ipv4 or ipv6 address is a valid CIDR address or not
valid the address strictly as per format xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. where xxx is a value between 0 and 255.
This method gives you the most recently completed audit period.
Return a path to a particular device.
>>> make_dev_path('xvdc')
/dev/xvdc
>>> make_dev_path('xvdc', 1)
/dev/xvdc1
Return a dict in which the dictionaries keys are mapped to new keys.
If the Flags.monkey_patch set as True, this function patches a decorator for all functions in specified modules. You can set decorators for each modules using FLAGS.monkey_patch_modules. The format is “Module path:Decorator function”. Example: ‘nova.api.ec2.cloud:nova.notifier.api.notify_decorator’
Parameters of the decorator is as follows. (See nova.notifier.api.notify_decorator)
name - name of the function function - object of the function
Parses the given server_string and returns a list of host and port. If it’s not a combination of host part and port, the port element is a null string. If the input is invalid expression, return a null list.
Return two dicts, one with keys the other with everything else.
Read from a file if it has been modified.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | data from file |
Secure helper to read file as root.
Protect code that wants to operate on PATH atomically. Any exception will cause PATH to be removed.
Return a hostname which conforms to RFC-952 and RFC-1123 specs.
Check whether a service is up based on last heartbeat.
Constant-time string comparison.
| Params s1: | the first string |
|---|---|
| Params s2: | the second string |
| Returns: | True if the strings are equal. |
This function takes two strings and compares them. It is intended to be used when doing a comparison for authentication purposes to help guard against timing attacks.
Return a dict that only contains a subset of keys.
Synchronization decorator.
Decorating a method like so:
@synchronized('mylock')
def foo(self, *args):
...
ensures that only one thread will execute the bar method at a time.
Different methods can share the same lock:
@synchronized('mylock')
def foo(self, *args):
...
@synchronized('mylock')
def bar(self, *args):
...
This way only one of either foo or bar can be executing at a time.
The external keyword argument denotes whether this lock should work across multiple processes. This means that if two different workers both run a a method decorated with @synchronized(‘mylock’, external=True), only one of them will execute at a time.
The lock_path keyword argument is used to specify a special location for external lock files to live. If nothing is set, then FLAGS.lock_path is used as a default.
Temporarily chown a path.
| Params owner_uid: | |
|---|---|
| UID of temporary owner (defaults to current user) |
Temporarily set the attr on a particular object to a given value then revert when finished.
One use of this is to temporarily set the read_deleted flag on a context object:
- with temporary_mutation(context, read_deleted=”yes”):
- do_something_that_needed_deleted_objects()
Decorator that logs how long a particular function took to execute
Local total_seconds implementation for compatibility with python 2.6
A wrapper around execute() to more easily handle warnings and errors.
Returns an (out, err) tuple of strings containing the output of the command’s stdout and stderr. If ‘err’ is not empty then the command can be considered to have failed.
Try to turn a string into utf-8 if possible.
Code is directly from the utf8 function in http://github.com/facebook/tornado/blob/master/tornado/escape.py
Sends a vpn negotiation packet and returns the server session.
Returns False on a failure. Basic packet structure is below.
Client packet (14 bytes):
0 1 8 9 13
+-+--------+-----+
|x| cli_id |?????|
+-+--------+-----+
x = packet identifier 0x38
cli_id = 64 bit identifier
? = unknown, probably flags/padding
Server packet (26 bytes):
0 1 8 9 13 14 21 2225
+-+--------+-----+--------+----+
|x| srv_id |?????| cli_id |????|
+-+--------+-----+--------+----+
x = packet identifier 0x40
cli_id = 64 bit identifier
? = unknown, probably flags/padding
bit 9 was 1 and the rest were 0 in testing
Walk class hierarchy, yielding most derived classes first
Escapes a string so it is valid within XML or XHTML.
Utility methods for working with WSGI servers.
Bases: object
Base WSGI application wrapper. Subclasses need to implement __call__.
Used for paste app factories in paste.deploy config files.
Any local configuration (that is, values under the [app:APPNAME] section of the paste config) will be passed into the __init__ method as kwargs.
A hypothetical configuration would look like:
[app:wadl] latest_version = 1.3 paste.app_factory = nova.api.fancy_api:Wadl.factory
which would result in a call to the Wadl class as
import nova.api.fancy_api fancy_api.Wadl(latest_version=‘1.3’)
You could of course re-implement the factory method in subclasses, but using the kwarg passing it shouldn’t be necessary.
Bases: nova.wsgi.Middleware
Helper class for debugging a WSGI application.
Can be inserted into any WSGI application chain to get information about the request and response.
Iterator that prints the contents of a wrapper string.
Bases: object
Used to load WSGI applications from paste configurations.
Return the paste URLMap wrapped WSGI application.
| Parameters: | name – Name of the application to load. |
|---|---|
| Returns: | Paste URLMap object wrapping the requested application. |
| Raises : | nova.exception.PasteAppNotFound |
Bases: nova.wsgi.Application
Base WSGI middleware.
These classes require an application to be initialized that will be called next. By default the middleware will simply call its wrapped app, or you can override __call__ to customize its behavior.
Used for paste app factories in paste.deploy config files.
Any local configuration (that is, values under the [filter:APPNAME] section of the paste config) will be passed into the __init__ method as kwargs.
A hypothetical configuration would look like:
[filter:analytics] redis_host = <IP_ADDRESS> paste.filter_factory = nova.api.analytics:Analytics.factory
which would result in a call to the Analytics class as
import nova.api.analytics analytics.Analytics(app_from_paste, redis_host=‘<IP_ADDRESS>’)
You could of course re-implement the factory method in subclasses, but using the kwarg passing it shouldn’t be necessary.
Called on each request.
If this returns None, the next application down the stack will be executed. If it returns a response then that response will be returned and execution will stop here.
Do whatever you’d like to the response.
Bases: webob.request.Request
Bases: object
WSGI middleware that maps incoming requests to WSGI apps.
Bases: object
Server class to manage a WSGI server, serving a WSGI application.
Start serving a WSGI application.
| Returns: | None |
|---|
Stop this server.
This is not a very nice action, as currently the method by which a server is stopped is by killing its eventlet.
| Returns: | None |
|---|
Block, until the server has stopped.
Waits on the server’s eventlet to finish, then returns.
| Returns: | None |
|---|

Bqa is available for use under the MIT software license.
You can download it from my github repository.
Duplicate the file /public/js/models/example.js and rename it with the name that you want.
Example /public/js/models/other.js
Now you have to modify the code.
Change the model name:
6. bqa.Example = bqa.BqaModel.extend("Example", {
for
6. bqa.Other = bqa.BqaModel.extend("Other", {
Change the collection:
54. bqa.ExampleCollection = bqa.BqaCollection.extend({ 55. model: "Example" 56. });
for
54. bqa.OtherCollection = bqa.BqaCollection.extend({ 55. model: "Other" 56. });
And finally, add columns to your model using the default parameter:
23. defaults: { 24. objectId: null, 25. name: "", 26. description: "" 27. }
You can use just one router or several routers if you want to organize better your code. Just be careful and don't use the same path in different routers.
If you want to create a new router, duplicate the file /public/js/routers/ExampleRouter.js.
Example: /public/js/routers/OtherRouter.js
Once your router has been created, change the class name:
6. bqa.ExampleRouter = Parse.Router.extend({
for
6. bqa.OtherRouter = Parse.Router.extend({
Now you have to add your routes, here are created the basic routes for the CRUD, including add, edit, list and pagination.
Change the code below:
8. routes: { 9. "examples" : "list", 10. "examples/page/:page" : "list", 11. "examples/page/:page/order/:order" : "list", 12. "examples/page/:page/order/:order/dir/:dir" : "list", 13. "example/add" : "add", 14. "example/:id" : "details" 15. },
for
8. routes: { 9. "others" : "list", 10. "others/page/:page" : "list", 11. "others/page/:page/order/:order" : "list", 12. "others/page/:page/order/:order/dir/:dir" : "list", 13. "other/add" : "add", 14. "other/:id" : "details" 15. },
Then, you have to modify the header initialization. Change this:
20. "href": "#examples", ... 26. "href": "#example/add",
for this:
20. "href": "#others", ... 26. "href": "#other/add",
Finally we have to change the basic methods list, details and add.
list
Change this:
... 44. var exmpleList = new bqa.ExmpleCollection(); 45. exmpleList.fetch({cache: false, success: function () { 46. $("#content").html(new bqa.ExmpleListView({ 47. model: exmpleList, ...
with this:
... 44. var otherList = new bqa.OtherCollection(); 45. otherList.fetch({cache: false, success: function () { 46. $("#content").html(new bqa.OtherListView({ 47. model: otherList, ...
details
Change this:
... 60. var example = new bqa.Example({id: id}); 61. example.fetch({cache: false, success: function () { 62. $("#content").html(new bqa.ExampleView({model: example}).el); 63. }}); ...
with this:
... 60. var other = new bqa.Other({id: id}); 61. other.fetch({cache: false, success: function () { 62. $("#content").html(new bqa.OtherView({model: other}).el); 63. }}); ...
add
Change this:
... 70. var example = new bqa.Example(); 71. $('#content').html(new bqa.ExampleView({model: example}).el); ...
with this:
... 70. var other = new bqa.Other(); 71. $('#content').html(new bqa.OtherView({model: other}).el); ...
You can use as many views as you need, for this basic App we have just 3. One for show the details and two for build the list of items with its pagination.
Let's duplicate these three files and rename them:
Original files:
/public/js/views/example/ExampleListItemView.js
/public/js/views/example/ExampleListView.js
/public/js/views/example/ExampleView.js
New files:
/public/js/views/other/OtherListItemView.js
/public/js/views/other/OtherListView.js
/public/js/views/other/OtherView.js
And now, we can modify the files.
OtherListItemView.js
Change the class name:
6. bqa.ExampleListItemView = Parse.View.extend({
with this:
6. bqa.OtherListItemView = Parse.View.extend({
OtherListView.js
Change the class name:
6. bqa.ExampleListView = Parse.View.extend({
with this:
6. bqa.OtherListView = Parse.View.extend({
Then, we'll add the class name to generate the URLs changing this:
14. var model_name = "examples";
with this:
14. var model_name = "others";
We have to modify the headers array which it'll display the headers of the list. We are going to use as many headers as rows we have in our class, but you can use as many headers as you want:
22. var headers = [ 23. {"value": "objectId", "name": "ID"}, 24. {"value": "name", "name": "Name"}, 25. {"value": "description", "name": "Description"} 26. ];
And finally we change the call we use to display all the rows of our list:
...
56. for (i = startPos; i < endPos; i++) {
57. $('.table', this.el).append(new bqa.ExampleListItemView({model: models[i]}).render().el);
58. }
...
with this:
...
56. for (i = startPos; i < endPos; i++) {
57. $('.table', this.el).append(new bqa.OtherListItemView({model: models[i]}).render().el);
58. }
...
OtherView.js
First we have to change the class name:
6. bqa.ExampleView = Parse.View.extend({
with this:
6. bqa.OtherView = Parse.View.extend({
And then, we change the url for redirection:
... 52. Parse.history.navigate("example/" + model.id, false); ... 64. Parse.history.navigate("/#examples", true); ...
with this:
... 52. Parse.history.navigate("other/" + model.id, false); ... 64. Parse.history.navigate("/#others", true); ...
Now, we have to make some small modifications in our templates. In this example we have only two templates: ExampleListItemView.html and ExampleView.html.
First, we have to duplicate files:
Original files:
/public/tpl/example/ExampleListItemView.html
/public/tpl/example/ExampleView.html
New files:
/public/tpl/other/OtherListItemView.html
/public/tpl/other/OtherView.html
And now we can start modifying files.
OtherListItemView.html
We use this template to display row's content inside the list. Just modify the url and add the columns of the class that you want to display.
<a href="#example/<%= objectId %>"><%= objectId %>
<%= name %>
<%= description %>
OtherView.html
We have to modify the label's attribute "for" and use the same name that we'll use in the input's attribute "id". We'll use model's name for instance.

 Id:
 <input id="exampleId" name="id" type="text" value="<%= objectId === null ? '' : objectId %>" disabled/>

And display your values.

 Name:
 <input type="text" id="name" name="name" value="<%= name %>"/>

Once you have created your new files, you have to modify just two more files and you'll good to go.
require.js
This is the first file which is loaded and it'll load the rest of the javascript files. It starts loading the external libraries, then config and b>utils files and finally, the rest of the javascript files from your App.
var scripts = [ "libs/jquery-1.8.2.min", "libs/underscore-min", "libs/backbone-min", "libs/bootstrap.min", "http://www.parsecdn.com/js/parse-1.2.13.min", "config", "js/utils/utils", "js/models/example", "js/models/other", "js/views/example/ExampleListItemView", "js/views/example/ExampleListView", "js/views/example/ExampleView", "js/views/other/OtherListItemView", "js/views/other/OtherListView", "js/views/other/OtherView", "js/views/bqa/LoginView", "js/views/bqa/HomeView", "js/views/bqa/HelpView", "js/views/Paginator", "js/views/HeaderView", "js/routers/ExampleRouter", "js/routers/OtherRouter", "js/routers/BqaRouter", "js/main" ];
config.js
This is the last file that you will have to modify. This is the config file and we use it to dinamically load all templates, initializes routers and your Parse keys.
bqa.initialConfig = { parse: { 'app_key' : 'YOUR PARSE APP KEY', 'js_key' : 'YOUR PARSE JAVASCRIPT KEY' }, templates: { 'example' : ['ExampleListItemView', 'ExampleView'], 'other' : ['OtherListItemView', 'OtherView'], 'bqa' : ['LoginView', 'HomeView', 'HelpView'], 'layouts' : ['HeaderView'] }, routers: [ 'BqaRouter', 'ExampleRouter', 'OtherRouter' ] };
Under construction
In this example we've created a header divided in two parts: pull-left and pull-right.
pull-left
The first part is displayed in the center of the header, just after the home link. We'll use it to display specific action from a particular view, for instance, "Add" and "List" buttons.
pull-right
Here we display global actions as "Login" button or "Help" button.
In order to set up which actions you want to display in the "pull-left" bar you have to call "new bqa.HeaderView(nav)" and fill the correct parameters. You can find an example at /public/js/routers/ExampleRouter.js.
These are the possible parameters:
href: The link to redirect when click the button.
nav_class: Class for the button, by default will be "list-menu".
name: The name that it'll be displayed.
icon: You can display an icon, add the name of the class or leave it "null" if you don't want to show any icon.
var nav = [ { "href": "#examples", "nav_class": "list-menu", "name": "Browse", "icon": null }, { "href": "#example/add", "nav_class": "add-menu", "name": "Add", "icon": "icon-edit icon-white" } ]; this.headerView = new bqa.HeaderView(nav); $('.header').html(this.headerView.el);
You can use validators in your models, you just have to add them to the initialize function. You can find an example at /public/js/models/example.js.
this.validators = {}; this.validators.name = function (value) { return value.length > 0 ? {isValid: true} : {isValid: false, message: "You must enter a name"}; }; this.validators.description = function (value) { return value.length > 0 ? {isValid: true} : {isValid: false, message: "You must enter a description"}; };
We are using bootstrap to render the CSS style and the responsive design and Font Awesome for icons. Go to the icons section to see all icons you can use.
After create all your classes is recommendable to add permissions to them. In Parse you can create a "Role", let's say an "Admin role" and allow only to this role access to your classes.
The first thing to do would be create a new user and make him Admin of your App.
Here is the code:
// Create a role function createRole() { var roleACL = new Parse.ACL(); roleACL.setWriteAccess(Parse.User.current(), true); roleACL.setPublicReadAccess(true); var role = new Parse.Role("Administrator", roleACL); role.getUsers().add(Parse.User.current()); role.save(null, { success: function(saveObject) { // The object was saved successfully. alert('role creation done'); }, error: function(saveObject, error) { // The save failed. alert("Failed creating role with error: " + error.code + ":"+ error.message); } }); }
// Update a role function updateRole (user) { var query = new Parse.Query(Parse.Role); query.equalTo("name", "Administrator"); query.get(null, { success: function(returnObj) { alert("found role: "+ returnObj.id + ' '+returnObj.get("name")); returnObj.getUsers().add(user); updateRoleACL(returnObj); }, error: function(returnObj, error) { window.alert("Failed with error: " + error.code + ":"+ error.message); } }); } function updateRoleACL(role) { var roleACL = role.getACL(); roleACL.setWriteAccess(Parse.User.current(), false); roleACL.setRoleWriteAccess(role,true); role.save(null, { success: function(saveObject) { // The object was saved successfully. alert('role acl updated'); }, error: function(saveObject, error) { // The save failed. alert("Failed updating role with error: " + error.code + ":"+ error.message); } }); }
This App it's based on the following libraries:
jqueryHe has such good tutorials that is totally recommended take a look into his page.
Most part of this code is from his post Single-Page CRUD Application with Backbone.js and Twitter Bootstrap
And this tutorial is for understand how to create a Parse App with Backbone base in the canonical Backbone todo application

Annual Juneteenth festival celebrates liberation, educates about struggles of slavery.
By Carl Lewis
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Sunday, Jun. 14, 2009
[/box]
Four years ago, Nduta Mwangi, 39, lived in a small tenement apartment in Kenya, where she and her sisters sewed traditional African dresses for a living.
Saturday, she brought those dresses to Macon and put them on sale at the annual Juneteenth Freedom Festival at Tattnall Square Park.
“These dresses represent who I am and who we as African-Americans are. It’s our living symbolic legacy,” she said.
The festival was a daylong celebration of Juneteenth, the holiday which commemorates the liberation of slaves in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865.
“It’s sort of like an African-American Independence Day,” said Michelle Fitz, a festival organizer.
But Fitz said that Juneteenth isn’t just for African-Americans.
“It’s a way to educate people of all races about the struggles of slavery. So many people have no idea or they forget what our people went through,” she said.
The festival featured live jazz music, arts and crafts vendors and educational presentations.
Festival director George Muhammad said he expected as many as 1,000 people to attend the festival by the end of the day.
Baatin Muhammad, a member of the Middle Georgia Jazz Allstar Band, said the festival is one of the band’s best opportunities to play yet.
“We’re really excited to play at this event in particular because of what it means to us. It means freedom. It means liberty. It means everything jazz music is supposed to be about,” he said.
One of the festival highlights was a Civil War era re-enactment that demonstrated the black freedom struggle.
Clifford Price, who’s been putting on the re-enactment in his spare time for the past 22 years, said his lifelong mission is to teach people to appreciate the hardships faced by black Union soldiers.
“We want to teach people what our ancestors did during the Civil War, about how they gave up their lives for that elusive word called freedom,” Price said.
James Simpson, a 49-year-old from Macon, has been bringing his wife and five kids to the festival for as long as he can remember.
“We come every year with lawn chairs and a cooler of sodas and stay all day. It’s not only fun, but it’s a great way to teach my kids something,” he said.
Simpson said he was particularly impressed with the variety of merchandise being sold at this year’s festival.
“I just got me a brand new yard hat,” he said.
Ankur Patel, a junior at Mercer University, said he heard the music from the festival as he was walking down College Street and decided to see what the event was all about.
“It’s pretty amazing to hear all this history. Even though I’m not black, I can appreciate it. It’s important that we all support events like this that teach people history and will change the way they look at things today,” he said.

This is Yiqing Wang, an artist from Beijing, China. She's currently a senior student at Binghamton Univeristy with a Linguistics major and a Graphic Design minor. She wishes to be a UI/UX designer in the future.
In the first project, the whole class cooperated to make a typographic riddle book using movie names as answers. Here are some of my process documents.
My selected movie is "Begin Again". During the process, I modified my work with the switching of design rules defined first by myself, then on a group scope, and finally on a class scope. For each step, I adjusted the mood of the design according to the font and color scheme formula.
Inspired by Susan Kare, our second project is about designing bitmap icons. Personally, my favorite bitmap icon designed by her is the happy Mac. I have always loved to draw faces on various objects, thus I decided to make a set of bitmap icons that can be used as emojis. Hopefully back in that era, people would like to use them for chatting online.
I was originally planned to make more icons and make them as a emoji package. However I spent a lot of time on project 3 later and did not have time to do so. I also tried to color the one I liked most. It's a fun project :)
For the third project, I was inspired by a comic posted on Weibo (cr.@混知官方) The issue of animal protection has always been my concern. Therefore, I intend to draw some illustrations to tell a tale of a mommy bear's revenge. The ending of the tale is a bit unexpected. But followed with the stories that happened in reality, I hope this project will arouse people's attention to animal rights.
Through the process, I spent a lot of time making the illustrations as well as finding suitable background pictures. I also took several HTML and CSS lessons on Linda.com. Although some ideas could not be realized in my final product due to my insufficient code writing level, I am satisfied with my work.

Dutch prosecutors probe racist chants at football match
THE HAGUE, Nov 18 — Dutch prosecutors said Monday they were investigating racist chants that caused a second division match to be halted.
The referee briefly suspended Sunday’s game between Excelsior Rotterdam and Den Bosch and Excelsior winger Ahmad Mendes Moreira walked off the pitch.
Moreira said he heard monkey noises and songs about “Black Pete”, a traditional Dutch Christmas-time character that appears in blackface and attracts accusations of racist stereotyping, Dutch media reported.
“We are working with police to see what exactly happened... and examine whether it can be established who were involved,” the Dutch federal prosecution service for the Oost-Brabant region said on Twitter.
It was looking at “visual material” to find the culprits, it added.
Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said the incident was “really terrible”.
“There is no place for racism in this country. Well done to the referee,” Rutte said.
The Dutch football association said the incident would be investigated.
The chants were “downright disgusting,” Jan Bluyssen, competition affairs manager of the association, told NOS Radio.
“I am just angry and disappointed that this is still happening in 2019,” he added.
The association said in a statement that “together with the club, we are now looking at how the perpetrators can be traced and dealt with.”
‘When is it going to stop!!?’
Another match involving Den Bosch was suspended in 2013 after repeated racist chants targeted AZ Alkmaar forward Jozy Altidore in a cup match.
Den Bosch had also faced previous sanctions for racist behaviour by their fans, with 50 of them banned from the stadium for the 2012-13 season.
Netherlands international Memphis Depay — who was not involved in Sunday’s game — called on Uefa to act after the incident.
“I’m sick and tired to see these images over and over! When is it going to stop!!?,” Depay wrote on Twitter. “@Uefa what we going to do? Specially with the upcoming @EURO2020.”
European footballing authorities have been trying to crack down on racist chanting after a series of incidents, including at a Euro 2020 qualifier between England and Bulgaria in October.
The Dutch incident heightens the annual controversy over “Black Pete”, the country’s traditional Saint Nicholas sidekick.
Hollywood celebrity Kim Kardashian weighed in on the issue at the weekend. “This Dutch ‘tradition’ called: ‘black pete’ is disturbing!” she tweeted, linking to an article on the subject. — AFP

Vector¶
This routine defines a vector field, such as velocity. This is simply an array holding the two or three component fields. This is more convient than scattering small arrays around the code and gives a place to hold vector specific routines like divergence and gradient.
Initialize¶
-
init
(a, n, V, b, exit, l)¶ initializes a vector field, that contains 3 different scalar field (one for each component of the vector)
Divergence¶
-
divergence
(v, f) Takes the divergence of a specified vector field
- Parameters
v (Class[vector]) – Vector to take divergence from
f (Class[field]) – divergence
Takes the divergence of a the field f
. Divergence of a vector field is the sum of the flux on each cell face by Gauss theorem. On a uniform grid this is easily evaluated. On a rectilinear grid, we must scale each of the flux by the face area
Where we essentially have the flux at each face and the volume of the j-th cell divided by the i-th dimension of the cell, gives us the orentiend area in the i-th direction.
Note
For a given set of index (i,j,k)
the velocity values are located to the left/bellow/front of the corresponding pressure point in physical space. If we say cell centers are located at integers values of (i,j,k)
, the divergence uses velocity points with (i,j,k)
and (i+1,j,k)
and the gradient uses scalar at index (i,j,k)
and (i-1,j,k)
.
Gradient¶
-
gradient
(v, p) Takes the gradient of a specified scalar field
- Parameters
v (Class[vector]) – Vector of gradient of p
p (Class[field]) – field to take gradient of
The i-th component of the gradient of a scalar field is computed as
where h is the distance between two scalar cell centers. This is simply the average of the neigbouring vector cells dx(i,j,k)
and dx(i-1,j,k)
(this is already computed as dxi2
in the code).
Tensor Gradient¶
-
gradTensor
(v, S)¶ Takes the gradient of a vector field and return a secon-order tensor
- Parameters
v (Class[vector]) – Vector to take gradient of
S (Class[field(3)]) – gradient tensor of vector v
The velocity gradient tensor is returned in the array S
that is passed to the subroutine.
Each component is a cell-centered vector. In-line terms are easily evaluated
S(d)%e(d)%point() = v%e(d)%point(d)-v%e(d)%point()
but cross terms require interpolation once the gradient has been calculated.
o = (/0,0,0/)
o(d2) = -1; v00 => v%e(d1)%point(arg=o)
o(d1) = 1; v01 => v%e(d1)%point(arg=o)
o(d2) = 1; v11 => v%e(d1)%point(arg=o)
o(d1) = 0; v10 => v%e(d1)%point(arg=o)
S(d1)%e(d2)%point()= 0.25*(v10-v00+v11-v01)
Note
S(i)%e(j)%p
stores the value of : \(\partial u_i/\partial x_j\)
Vorticity¶
-
vorticity
(uij, omega) Computes the vorticity field, given a velocity gradient tensor
- Parameters
uij (Class[vector(3)]) – velocity gradient tensor
omega (Class[vector]) – vorticity field
The vorticity is return in the array omega
that is passed to the subroutine. Voriticity is a cell-centered vector.
\(\lambda_2\)¶
-
lambda2
(uij, lam2) Computes the lambda-2 criterion of a given velocity gradient tensor
uij
- Parameters
uij (Class[vector(3)]) – velocity gradient tensor
lam2 (Class[field]) – lambda-2 criterion
The \(\lambda_2\) criterion is the second larges (in magnitude) eigenvalue of


Guideline: Provide captions and associated meta-data for all audio content within XR environments.
Note: WCAG 2.2 continues this by saying except when the media is a media alternative for text and is clearly labeled as such.
Outcome 1: Captions are used to understand speech
Translates speech and non-speech audio into alternative formats (e.g. captions) so media can be understood when sound is unavailable or limited. User agents and APIs support the display and control of captions
Outcome 2: Caption Meta-Data is used to convey further information
Conveys information about the sound in addition to the text of the sound (for example, sound source, duration, distance and direction) so users know the necessary information about the context of the sound in relation to the environment it is situated in.
Outcome 3: Captions format allows for alternative devices
Provides captions and caption meta-data in alternative formats (for example, second screen or braille display) to allow users the opportunity to move caption and meta-data to alternative displays. For example, this benefits users without sound and vision, users who need assistive technology to magnify portions of the view, or users who have limited reach.
Outcome 4: Caption visual display can be customised
Provides customization of caption style and position to support people with limited vision or color perception. Customization options can benefit all users.
Outcome 5: Caption temporal display can be customised
Provides customization of caption timing to support people with limited manipulation, strength, or cognition.


Geode handles network outages by using a weighting system to determine whether the remaining available members have a sufficient quorum to continue as a distributed system.
Individual members are each assigned a weight, and the quorum is determined by comparing the total weight of currently responsive members to the previous total weight of responsive members.
Your distributed system can split into separate running systems when members lose the ability to see each other. The typical cause of this problem is a failure in the network. When a partitioned system is detected, only one side of the system keeps running and the other side automatically shuts down.
The network partitioning detection feature is enabled by default with a true value for the enable-network-partition-detection
property. See Configure Apache Geode to Handle Network Partitioning for details. Quorum weight calculations are always performed and logged regardless of this configuration setting.
The overall process for detecting a network partition is as follows:
- The distributed system starts up. When you start up a distributed system, start the locators first, start the cache servers second, and then start other members such as applications or processes that access distributed system data.
- After the members start up, the oldest member, typically a locator, assumes the role of the membership coordinator. Peer discovery occurs as members come up and members generate a membership discovery list for the distributed system. Locators hand out the membership discovery list as each member process starts up. This list typically contains a hint on who the current membership coordinator is.
Members join and if necessary, depart the distributed system:
- Member processes make a request to the coordinator to join the distributed system. If authenticated, the coordinator creates a new membership view, hands the new membership view to the new member, and begins the process of sending the new membership view (to add the new member or members) by sending out a view preparation message to existing members in the view.
While members are joining the system, it is possible that members are also leaving or being removed through the normal failure detection process. Failure detection removes unresponsive or slow members. See Managing Slow Receivers and Failure Detection and Membership Views for descriptions of the failure detection process. If a new membership view is sent out that includes one or more failed processes, the coordinator will log the new weight calculations. At any point, if quorum loss is detected due to unresponsive processes, the coordinator will also log a severe level message to identify the failed processes:
Possible loss of quorum detected due to loss of {0} cache processes: {1}
where {0} is the number of processes that failed and {1} lists the processes.
Whenever the coordinator is alerted of a membership change (a member either joins or leaves the distributed system), the coordinator generates a new membership view. The membership view is generated by a two-phase protocol:
- In the first phase, the membership coordinator sends out a view preparation message to all members and waits 12 seconds for a view preparation ack return message from each member. If the coordinator does not receive an ack message from a member within 12 seconds, the coordinator attempts to connect to the member’s failure-detection socket. If the coordinator cannot connect to the member’s failure-detection socket, the coordinator declares the member dead and starts the membership view protocol again from the beginning.
- In the second phase, the coordinator sends out the new membership view to all members that acknowledged the view preparation message or passed the connection test.
Each time the membership coordinator sends a view, each member calculates the total weight of members in the current membership view and compares it to the total weight of the previous membership view. Some conditions to note:
- When the first membership view is sent out, there are no accumulated losses. The first view only has additions.
- A new coordinator may have a stale view of membership if it did not see the last membership view sent by the previous (failed) coordinator. If new members were added during that failure, then the new members may be ignored when the first new view is sent out.
- If members were removed during the fail over to the new coordinator, then the new coordinator will have to determine these losses during the view preparation step.
With a default value of
enable-network-partition-detection
, any member that detects that the total membership weight has dropped below 51% within a single membership view change (loss of quorum) declares a network partition event. The coordinator sends a network-partitioned-detected UDP message to all members (even to the non-responsive ones) and then closes the distributed system with aForcedDisconnectException
. If a member fails to receive the message before the coordinator closes the system, the member is responsible for detecting the event on its own.
The presumption is that when a network partition is declared, the members that comprise a quorum will continue operations. The surviving members elect a new coordinator, designate a lead member, and so on.

Post-Mortem photography
at the online
People that take pictures of themselves with their deceased beloved ones nowadays are being seen as sick and immoral. Though nothing really has changed in a few hundred years. The picture you take is the last proof of the existence of your beloved one.
The thing that did change is the step some people take next. They share their picture with the entire world to see.
Joie de vivre..


{{ define "main" }}
The API documentation project allows developers to build features that connect them to VRChat. The documentation is written in a standardised format called OpenAPI, providing capabilities for automatic documentation and SDK generation in a variety of languages.
The OpenAPI Specification defines a standard, programming language-agnostic interface description for HTTP APIs, which allows both humans and computers to discover and understand the capabilities of a service without requiring access to source code, additional documentation, or inspection of network traffic. When properly defined via OpenAPI, a consumer can understand and interact with the remote service with a minimal amount of implementation logic. Similar to what interface descriptions have done for lower-level programming, the OpenAPI Specification removes guesswork in calling a service.
The produced outcome is something of surprising quality and allows us to work quickly and efficiently in keeping the documentation up to date. Adding new endpoints or correcting something that's outdated can be fixed and downstreamed into all the SDKs in matter of minutes. This helps to ensure that even during periods of low contribution it is still possible to keep the documentation up to speed with the public API.
The Quickstart is the fastest way to start using VRChat's API. If you are a first-time user, it is strongly recommended to follow the Quickstart instructions. Focusing on getting your environment up and running, and getting your account logged in, allows you to start exploring and playing around with the data immediately.
Once you've got your environment or SDK set up there is additional collection of tutorials to help you get started using the API. This covers most common actions such as changing your bio, fetching information about friends, or even uploading a cover picture to a world. The tutorial library contains a series of guides for performing the most basic actions in the most popular languages. Please reach out if you wish to do something more advanced that is not documented.

These ideation questions are the same as before. Your answers should represent the integration of creative ideas from every team member.

People can effectively collaborate on projects by creating and assigning tasks, communicating in real time via a chatroom, scheduling project meetings, and receiving notification reminders for different cards.
Depending on the size of the event, anywhere from 10 to 25 users is ideal.
They need to know how to use a computer and plan project tasks.
Project planning tends to be practical, but it can be fun as well thanks to our app!
All team members can see tasks added in real time, but tasks that show up on an individual’s page can be filtered based on assignment and due date.
The newest tasks appear at the top of the tasks queue by default, and can be sorted by due date, assignment, and priority.
An admin is the project creator and can see all users affiliated with a particular project, add and remove users, and view / filter tasks for every user.
For each person on the team, jot down a list of ideas credited to that person. It’s okay to credit multiple people for the same idea. The rationale of this section of the proposal is to demonstrate that everyone on the team contributes useful ideas.
A reasonable way to implement a functional prototype of your together app is to build upon the service-matching app (i.e. uber). Discuss what additional efforts may be required from your team to develop the together app.
What existing components of the uber app your team can reuse?
What new components and features your team may need to build?
What new skills your team will still need to acquire?
This is a preliminary proposal. Next week, your team will receive feedback and will work on building a mockup of this app. The week after that, your team will start implementing the app.


We've made a few back-end changes since last week:
-
We now have dedicated API endpoints for authentication and user retrieval. The auth endpoint is accessible via a POST request made to /api/v1/auth while the user endpoint is accessible via a GET request to /api/v1/users/<id> where <id> is
the ID of the desired user. Note that Hackers can request themselves, but cannot see information other than their registration information. Administrators and Staff can see everything (about anyone).
-
We are working on the check-in/scanning functionality. Right now, Sponsors and Mentors are unable to see any information about users via the above endpoint, since this will be taken care of by the scanning endpoint.
-
A bug has been fixed on the main site where users with an expired auth token might not have been able to authenticate again.
