Prince Andrew Has Been Right Royally Removed From His Office At Buckingham Palace
by By Alasdair DuncanIn the latest of a series of humiliating episodes, Prince Andrew has been turfed out of his office at Buckingham Palace, with the authorisation of his mother Queen Elizabeth.
According to the Times Of London, Andrew was told to clear his office and staff out of the palace on Friday, just days after announcing his decision to step back from official duties.
His private secretary Amanda Thirsk was also fired, reportedly due to her part in encouraging the Duke of York to take part in his now-infamous BBC interview.

He faced heavy criticism for his flippant responses and apparent lack of empathy for Epstein’s victims, and was mocked for a bizarre claim about how he does not sweat.
As backlash from the interview, intensified, the 59-year-old prince announced he’d be stepping back from his public duties, with the permission of his mum. He said:
“It has become clear to me over the last few days that the circumstances relating to my former association with Jeffrey Epstein has become a major disruption to my family’s work and the valuable work going on in the many organizations and charities that I am proud to support. Therefore, I have asked Her Majesty if I may step back from public duties for the foreseeable future, and she has given her permission.”
The Times reports that a lawyer representing a number of Epstein’s alleged victims has accused the prince of “enabling” his crimes, and has urged him to cooperate with US authorities.
The lawyer in question said that the prince may be served a subpoena if he does not testify willingly in a future legal action.

Checks if this logger is enabled for the Debug level.
true
if this logger is enabled for Debug events, false
otherwise.
This function is intended to lessen the computational cost of disabled log debug statements.
For some ILog interface log
, when you write:
[C#]
log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
You incur the cost constructing the message, string construction and concatenation in this case, regardless of whether the message is logged or not.
If you are worried about speed (who isn't), then you should write:
[C#]
if (log.IsDebugEnabled)
{
log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
}
This way you will not incur the cost of parameter construction if debugging is disabled for log
. On the other hand, if the log
is debug enabled, you will incur the cost of evaluating whether the logger is debug enabled twice. Once in IsDebugEnabled and once in the Debug. This is an insignificant overhead since evaluating a logger takes about 1% of the time it takes to actually log. This is the preferred style of logging.
Alternatively if your logger is available statically then the is debug enabled state can be stored in a static variable like this:
[C#]
private static readonly bool isDebugEnabled = log.IsDebugEnabled;
Then when you come to log you can write:
[C#]
if (isDebugEnabled)
{
log.Debug("This is entry number: " + i );
}
This way the debug enabled state is only queried once when the class is loaded. Using a private static readonly
variable is the most efficient because it is a run time constant and can be heavily optimized by the JIT compiler.
Of course if you use a static readonly variable to hold the enabled state of the logger then you cannot change the enabled state at runtime to vary the logging that is produced. You have to decide if you need absolute speed or runtime flexibility.

Conversion rate a concern for Sunil Chhetri
by Hindol BasuNEW DELHI: Ahead of their back-to-back World Cup qualification matches against Afghanistan (November 14) and Oman (November 19), India captain Sunil Chhetri is worried over the team's inability to convert easy chances into goals.
After holding Qatar to a goalless draw, India had to split points with Bangladesh - a match they were expected to win. The Indian forwards spurned numerous opportunities before a late equaliser saved the day. Chhetri spoke exclusively to TOI about the campaign so far and what needs to be done in Dushanbe on Thursday as well as in Muscat on November 19.
Back-to-back World Cup qualifying games - is it a positive or will it wear down the boys?
It's always a positive when you play for the country. Barring the Bangladesh game where we missed quite a few chances, and thereby lost an opportunity to take all three points, we have done well. All the boys are very much aware of the tough fixtures ahead, and they need to accept it when they're representing the country. We'll try our best to cope with it. We need to rest well, eat well and be prepared for the challenges ahead.
Afghanistan are below India in FIFA ranking, but they won't be any pushovers?
We have already seen what happens when you think about the FIFA rankings. Almost everyone had predicted a win for us before we played against Bangladesh in Kolkata but something else happened. So, I don't pay much heed to rankings. If you would have asked anyone to predict the result prior to our game against Qatar, you must have got a different answer from what eventually happened in Doha.
If we win against Afghanistan, then can we expect another win in Oman? Or is it too much to ask for...
Facing Oman in Muscat is going to be a daunting task. Honestly, we're not thinking about Oman right now. Our focus is on the Afghanistan game on Thursday and once we pass that hurdle, we'll start thinking about Oman.
Do you think the opportunity was there to win against Bangladesh?
It was a huge opportunity. I am not being harsh, but I wish we could have converted those chances. It was a game where Bangladesh defended really well; but still, we managed to create lots of chances. Had we converted a few of them, we would've grabbed all three points. That's the area (converting chances) where we should really work on.
Does the lack of goal scorers in the team worry you?
It is worrisome, but you must cut some slack. These boys are young and they're trying their best. With time, they'll excel.

| Error Handling |
C++'s exception handling mechanism is a perfect match for error handling in the framework. Imagine a complete parser as a maze. At each branch, the input dictates where we will turn. Given an erroneous input, we may reach a dead end. If we ever reach one, it would be a waste of time to backtrack from where we came from. Instead, we supply guards in strategic points. Beyond a certain point, we put put parser assertions in places where one is not allowed to go.
The assertions are like springs that catapult us back to the guard. If we ever reach a brick wall given a specific input pattern, everything unwinds quickly and we are thrown right back to the guard. This can be a very effective optimization when used wisely. Right back at the guard, we have a chance to correct the situation, if possible. The following illustration depicts the scenario.
The parser_error class is the generic parser exception class used by Spirit. This is the base class for all parser exceptions.
template <typename ErrorDescrT, typename IteratorT = char const*>
class parser_error
{
public:
parser_error(IteratorT where, ErrorDescrT descriptor);
IteratorT where;
ErrorDescrT descriptor;
};
The exception holds the iterator position where the error was encountered in its where member variable. In addition to the iterator, parser_error also holds information regarding the error (error descriptor) in its descriptor member variable.
Semantic actions are free to throw parser exceptions when necessary. A utility function throw_ may be called. This function creates and throws a parser_error given an iterator and an error descriptor:
template <typename ErrorDescrT, typename IteratorT>
void throw_(IteratorT where, ErrorDescrT descriptor);
Assertions may be put in places where we don't have any other option other than expect parsing to succeed. If parsing fails, a specific type of exception is thrown.
Before declaring the grammar, we declare some assertion objects. assertion is a template class parameterized by the type of error that will be thrown once the assertion fails. The following assertions are parameterized by a user defined Error enumeration.
enum Errors
{
program_expected,
begin_expected,
end_expected
};
assertion<Errors> expect_program(program_expected);
assertion<Errors> expect_begin(begin_expected);
assertion<Errors> expect_end(end_expected);
The example above uses enums to hold the information regarding the error, we are free to use other types such as integers and strings. For example, assertion<string> accepts a string as its info. It is advisable to use light-weight objects though, after all, error descriptors are usually static. Enums are convenient for error handlers to detect and easily catch since C++ treats enums as unique types.
|
The assertive_parser Actually, the expression expect_end(str_p("end"))creates an assertive_parser object. An assertive_parser is a parser that throws an exception in response to a parsing failure. The assertive_parser throws a parser_error exception rather than returning an unsuccessful match to signal that the parser failed to match the input. During parsing, parsers are given an iterator of type IteratorT. This is combined with the error descriptor type ErrorDescrT of the assertion (in this case enum Errors). Both are used to create a parser_error<Errors, IteratorT> which is then thrown to signal the exception. |
The predeclared expect_end assertion object may now be used in the grammar as wrappers around parsers. For example:
expect_end(str_p("end"))
This will throw an exception if it fails to see "end" from the input.
The guard is used to catch a specific type of parser_error. guards are typically predeclared just like assertions. Extending our previous example:
guard<Errors> my_guard;
Errors, in this example is the error descriptor type we want to detect. This is the same enum as above. my_guard may now be used in a grammar declaration:
my_guard(p)[error_handler]
where p is an expression that evaluates to a parser. Somewhere inside p, a parser may throw a parser exception. error_handler is the error handler which may be a function or functor compatible with the interface:
error_status<T>
f(ScannerT const& scan, ErrorT error);
Where scan points to the scanner state prior to parsing and error is the error that arose. The handler is allowed to move the scanner position as it sees fit, possibly in an attempt to perform error correction. The handler must then return an error_status<T> object.
|
The fallback_parser The expression my_guard(expr, error_handler)creates a fallback_parser object. The fallback_parser handles parser_error exceptions of a specific type. Since my_guard is declared as guard<Errors>, the fallback_parser catches Errors specific parser errors: parser_error<Errors, IteratorT>. The class sets up a try block. When an exception is caught, the catch block then calls the error_handler. |
template <typename T = nil_t>
struct error_status
{
enum result_t { fail, retry, accept, rethrow };
error_status(
result_t result = fail,
int length = -1,
T const& value = T());
result_t result;
int length;
T value;
};
Where T is an attribute type compatible with the match attribute of the fallback_parser's subject (defaults to nil_t). The class error_status reports the result of an error handler. This result can be one of:
| error_status result | |||||||
| fail | quit and fail. Return a no_match | retry | attempt error recovery, possibly moving the scanner | accept | force success returning a matching length, moving the scanner appropriately and returning an attribute value | rethrow | rethrows the error |

Abstract:
You’ve just been given a server that is having problems and you need to diagnose it quickly. This session will take you through designing your own toolkit to help you quickly diagnose a wide array of problems. We will walk through scripts that will help you pin point various issues quickly and efficiently. This session will take you through; What’s on fire? – These scripts will help you diagnose what’s happening right now Specs – What hardware are you dealing with here (you’ll need to know this to make the appropriate decisions)? Settings – are the most important settings correct for your workload? Bottlenecks – We’ll see if there are any areas of the system that are throttling us. By the end of this session you should have the knowledge of what you need to do in order to start on your own kit. This kit is designed to be your lifeline to fix servers quickly and get them working. All code we’ll go through is either provided as part of this presentation or are open source/community.
Speaker(s): Rich Benner,
Abstract:
Have you had performance tank despite the code working fine in another environment? Maybe heard that some SQL is bad but not why? If so, this is the session for you! This session will start with a walkthrough of some of the basic settings in SQL Server and how they affect you as a developer. It follows with key tips on what settings to change, why some code will wreak havoc on your performance and how isolation levels matter (and why NOLOCK can be an exceptionally bad idea!) The session is led by a 20-year DBA veteran who decided to try to help developers understand performance issues by seeing things from his perspective. If you want to explore how default settings kill your performance, investigate why harmless SQL might not be quite so harmless and gain insight into how isolation levels affect function and performance, then this session will provide you with the tools to think outside the box and incorporate database engine knowledge into your developer prowess!
Speaker(s): Alexander Arvidsson,
Abstract:
PowerApps are a relatively new technology released within the Azure stack. Its primary focus is to empower technical or non-technical developers to create quick and simple custom apps. They can be used as standalone apps or embedded within websites/mobile apps. On the other hand, Power BI is now a mature product and needs little introduction. What if we could use PowerApps and Power BI together? Can we embed a PowerApp into a Dashboard and give the end user the ability to write back data to a visual? Come along to my session to find out. The 1-hour session includes other technologies such as Azure SQL Database, Common Data Service (CDS) and Flow. In particular, I will demonstrate how you integrate these technologies with PowerApps and Power BI. Whilst all levels of expertise are welcome, users require prior knowledge of Power BI Dashboards and PowerApps.
Speaker(s): Callum Green,
Abstract:
Azure Data Factory version 2 (ADFv2) arrived in Sept17 with a bunch of new concepts and features to support our Azure data integration pipelines. In this session, we’ll update your ADFv1 knowledge and start to understand the true nature of scale out control flows and data flows. What’s the integration runtime? Can we easily lift and shift our beloved SSIS packages into the cloud? How do we embed expressions to achieve dynamic activity executions? Do we still need SSIS with the ADF platform as a service? The answers to all these questions and more in this demo packed session. An awareness of Azure Data Factory v1 is recommended before attending this session.
Speaker(s): Paul Andrew,
Abstract:
It’s an age-old problem: developers want prod data for dev and test purposes. It helps them to write better code and to test it effectively. Self-service access to usable test-data aligns well with DevOps principles that encourage teams to adopt a shift-left mentality to testing. Unfortunately, in the age of data breaches and the GDPR it’s simply illegal to give developers access to some types of sensitive production data. So what do you do? In this session I’ll talk about the GDPR, anonymisation, pseudonymisation and 5 techniques you can use to provide appropriate data that is as “production-like” as possible (within the legal and technical constraints). I’ll demo these techniques both in raw T-SQL and using some of the Microsoft and third party tools that are available to make the task easier. After this session you’ll be equipped to discuss the problem with your colleagues in an informed manner and you’ll be able to suggest several solutions and their relative pros and cons.
Speaker(s): Alex Yates,
Abstract:
Technology changes quickly - patterns and approaches less so. As people move towards the cloud, there are clear benefits of adopting a polyglot cloud architecture employing a range of distributed components. This session will take you through the pattern known as the Lambda architecture, a reference pattern for building data analytics systems that can handle any combination of data velocity, variety and volume. The session will outline the set of tools and integration points that can underpin the approach. Do you design real-time reporting systems? Or crunch petabytes of data? Perhaps you are adopting a cloud architecture and just want to handle anything the future throws at you? This session is for you. We will follow the movement of data through batch and speed layers via Azure Data Lake Store Analytics and Streaming Analytics before considering the serving layer with Azure SQL DataWarehouse and downstream reporting tools.
Speaker(s): Simon Whiteley,
Abstract:
Until SQL Server 2016, the Query Optimizer and the Execution Engine were strictly separated. The Query Optimizer produces an execution plan that, based on statistics and estimates, should be fast. That execution plan is then faithfully executed by the Execution Engine, even if reality turns out to be different from expectations. SQL Server 2017 changes this! Three new features now allow execution plans to adapt to reality. Memory Grant Feedback increases or decreases assigned memory based on past experience. The Adaptive Join operator allows the optimizer to create two alternative plans, the best of which will be decided at execution time. And with Interleaved Execution, parts of the plan are even completely recompiled mid-execution, with much better cardinality estimates. If you are more interested in how all this ACTUALLY works than in shiny marketing slides, come to this session. We will spend the full 60 minutes knee-deep in execution plan internals!
Speaker(s): Hugo Kornelis,
Abstract:
A task seems to be easy. Maintenance a project of a database in the code repository, treat as master-version and do deployment evenly and frequently. Simple? Seemingly. The things become more complex as fast as an amount of objects in database growing. While instead of one database, we have over a dozen. When databases have got the references to each other. And how about dictionary tables? Where to keep them and how to script? Additional issues are coming whilst we would like to control instance-level objects. All these topics I will explain on the session focused on practical aspects of work with Microsoft Visual Studio Data Tools.
Speaker(s): Kamil Nowinski,
Abstract:
Ever wanted to get things done quicker? Be more productive each day with SQL? In this demo-rich session, I will show you accumulated knowledge over the years of tips and tricks to write SQL more efficiently be more productive with the tools available, shortcuts to the everyday mundane tasks and save time. Covering some of the lesser known features of Management Studio, free tools that will assist you to get things done easier than before. An enhanced set of development/DBA tools, to analysis your SQL Server, and find out the pain points, aid quicker easier development, oh and how to teach your colleagues they should never leave their machines unlocked. This is a filled 60 minutes of things you can use daily.
Speaker(s): Martin Croft,
Abstract:
As a SQL DBA you want to know that your SQL Server Estate is compliant with the rules that you have set up. Now there is a simple method to set this up using PowerShell and you can get the results in PowerBi or a report emailed to you on a schedule. Details such as How long since your last backup? How long since your last DBCC Check? Are your Agent Operators Correct? Is AutoClose, AutoShrink, Auto Update Stats set up correctly? Is DAC Allowed? Are your file growth settings correct, what about the number of VLFs? Is your latency, TCP Port, PS remoting as you expect? Is Page Verify, Data Purity, Compression correctly set up? and many more checks (even your own) can be achieved using the dbachecks PowerShell module brought to you by the dbatools team. Join one of the founders of the module, Rob Sewell MVP. and he will show you how easy it is to use this module and release time for more important things whilst keeping the confidence that your estate is as you would expect it
Speaker(s): Rob Sewell,
Abstract:
Showing how a Database Monitoring tool can be used in conjunction with a DevOps process can help prevent shipping performance problems to production. In this session we will be showing how you can Use data captured from Database Monitoring tool to validate performance testing Use a Database Monitoring tool as an input to release gates, to only release when defined performance metrics have been met. Use VSTS extensions to visualise performance test failures This allows us to automatically fail releases based on poor performance as captured by a baseline in downstream environments, and surface that information in the release tool so that a release manager can understand why a release in the pipeline was marked as failed. This will typically be things like, high CPU, logical IO, missing indexes, or deadlocks.
Speaker(s): Mark Allison,
Abstract:
In this session we'll take a look at PowerApps, Microsoft's SaaS application platform, designed for "Power Users" to build web based applications that can be accessed via browser, tablet and phone. We'll look at how we get started and the kind of things we can do in the platform and how easy it is to connect to and work with the data sets available. We'll look at some of the syntax in the code and how to solve various common problems
Speaker(s): David Morrison,
Abstract:
Implementing large-scale, complex Data Analytic projects utilizing multiple technologies (AZURE SQL, Datawarehouse, Data Lake, Data Factory, PowerBI) and more is complex. Managing the teams that can deliver the complex architecture designs can quickly become a challenge, learn the key lessons from a real-world project that was delivered, avoiding problem areas that can derail such projects.

The best RDBMS meets the best Operating System. But can you leverage all the power of SQL Server on Linux? Can you create AlwaysOn Availability Groups on Linux? Can you use Integration Service (SSIS) to exchange data ? Is Change Data Capture (CDC) available? Can you use Active Directory Authentication? You will need to attend this session to get the answers!
Speaker(s): Rudi Bruchez,
Abstract:
In this session to look at the functionality built into SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) and in Azure SQL Database to classify your database.

This session aims to take attendees through what containers are and what benefits they bring. After this demo based session, attendees will be able to go back to their respective companies and be able to evaluate container technology to determine whether or not it will be of benefit. Attendees will be taken through the following: - The definition of containers Virtual Machines vs Containers Container networking fundamentals Installing the docker engine Pulling SQL images from the docker repository Running SQL Server containers Creating custom container images Persisting data in SQL Server containers A real world implementation of containers
Speaker(s): Andrew Pruski,
Abstract:
The concurrency model of most Relational Database Systems are defined by the ACID properties but as they aim for ever increasing transactional throughput, those rules are bent, ignored, or even broken. In this session, we will investigate how SQL Server implements transactional durability in order to understand how Delayed Durability bends the rules to remove transactional bottlenecks and achieve improved throughput. We will take a look at how this can be used to compliment In-Memory OLTP performance, and how it might impact or compromise other things. Attend this session and you will be assimilated!
Speaker(s): Mark Broadbent,
Abstract:
A hands on workshop where we will build two sample graph databases, then become familiar with querying Graph databases and finally visualising those with PowerBI. There will be a GitHub folder for your to download the session content also: https://github.com/neilmillingtonmicrosoft/SQL_Graph_with_PowerBI You will need: - either an Azure SQL host or SQL Server (2017) running locally on your machine - the SQL SSMS toolset, to run SQL script - copy of the PowerBI Desktop
Speaker(s): Neil Millington,
Abstract:
This session will cover the basics of dynamic SQL; how, why and when you may wish to use it with demos of use cases and scenarios where it can really save the day (trying to perform a search with a variable number of optional search terms, anyone?). We will also cover the performance and security impacts touching on the effect on query plans, index usage and security (SQL injection!) along with some best practices.
Speaker(s): Joanna Wolthuis,
Abstract:
The software development landscape is changing. More and more, there is an increased demand for AI and cloud solutions. As a user buying cinema tickets online, I would like to simply ask "I want to buy two cinema tickets for the movie Dunkirk, tomorrow's viewing at 1pm" instead of manually following a pre-defined process. In this session, we will learn how to build, debug and deploy a chatbot using the Azure Bot Service. We will enrich it using the Microsoft Cognitive suite to achieve human like interactions. Will it pass the Turing test, no, but we can extend the bot service using Machine Learning (LUIS), APIs (Web Apps) and Worflows (Logic Apps).
Speaker(s): Jose Mendes,
Abstract:
I don’t need machine learning to predict the outcome of you learning Python for Machine Learning, it will improve your career. In this session we will cover the basics of machine learning, the tools to start working with ML in Python and touch on how to deploy a model with Docker and Apache Flask.
Speaker(s): Terry McCann,
Abstract:
In this session let us find about (technical overview)what are the foundations and design goals of Azure CosmosDB. There are many benefits which will fit for web, mobile and globally distributed applications that need elastic scaling, high availability with a predictable performance which can elevate ease of development with NoSQL capabilities that every developer/architect/DBA should know about.
Speaker(s): Satya Jayanty,
Abstract:
Why do some planes with very few issues crash while a plane with no engine power can land safely on the Hudson with no loss of life? Every company will eventually have a disaster. It's just a matter of size and scope. This talk is a general overview of how to respond to an incident and talks about the roles of management and IT. This is not your typical discussion of disasters focusing on how to make a backup plan or enable high availability. I'll touch upon what we can learn from plane crashes and how those lessons can be applied to the IT environment in general.
Speaker(s): Greg Moore,
Abstract:
This session guides you through important considerations for deploying your own Power BI Infrastructure on site. Topic covered are: - Architecture and Scalability - Selecting Hardware and Capacity Planning - Service Account Planning - Configuring and Testing Kerberos - Configuring Office online integration - Licensing
Speaker(s): Bob Duffy,
Abstract:
Using Extended Properties you can provide data model documentation directly from your solutions for SSAS and PowerBI files. We will covere how and where you add the properties, how you can access them using PowerShell and how to extract and display them using good old SSRS.
Speaker(s): Steve Powell,
Abstract:
Execution plans are a great resource when trying to tune a query, but often we get hung up on trying to fix what we consider to be 'bad' operators, for example table scans vs clustered index scans; scans vs seeks; sort operations. In this session we will take a look at some misconceptions, step through what SQL Server is doing and see if we are actually improving the performance when we change the plan to have 'better' operators.
Speaker(s): Kevan Riley,
Abstract:
Microsoft's Platform as a Service solution, SQL Azure is a compelling solution for many who don't want to manage their own highly available SQL implementation. SQL Azure however does not replicate all of the services of on-premesis SQL, and one of these missing is the SQL Agent. This session looks at what alternatives exist for running and managing SQL jobs in Azure without SQL agent. In particular we will focus on Azure Automation and Azure Functions. The presentation will include a brief overview of the two services and how they are applicable to SQL workloads, followed by a demo of creating and running a SQL job.
Speaker(s): Sam Cogan,
Abstract:
Blockchain is a transformational technology with the potential to extend digital transformation beyond an organization and into the processes it shares with suppliers, customers, and partners. What is blockchain? What can it do for my organization? How can your organisation manage a blockchain implementation? How does it work in Azure? Join this session to learn about blockchain and see it in action. We will also discuss the use cases for blockchain, and whether it is here to stay.

There's no question that the World we live in is designed to create a consumerism type mind set, short processed food attention spans and carbonated confusion.
Well getting by using only 10% of my brain hadn't been a problem for me up until this last week; a week I've been dreading for the past six months...
You see, I had a 6 month contract due in 7 days, and in all honestly I was only about a quarter done. And this was a BIG contract given to me, and I was expected to deliver.
I would have completed the work sooner (it’s computer based, online marketing gig) but I couldn’t for the life of me keep my attention and focus on the project.
Quite simply, I knew I needed an edge, I knew I needed “help” if I was going to pull this off...
So I meditated on things I could do to boost my brain focus, power, and the likes. And thus I found a host of Nootropics that were 1) Legal/Non-Regulated 2) Reasonable inexpensive and best of all 3) Getting almost entirely positive feedback.
Six days till deadline... and still, I would stare at the screen, at the dumb blinking cursor upon a very blank, page. **Ding Dong** at the door, it was the mail man with MY package. That day, even if it sounds cliche, I was saved by the bell...
Not wanting to take anything on an empty stomach I took the cocktail of Nootropics with three eggs and a glass of OJ; than lied down for a nap. Yes, six days to deadline and I was napping... like I said, I couldn’t focus worth a damn!
 It was like I knew CLEARLY what had to be done... and my brain even chronologically was figuring out how much time each task was going to take, in which order they had to be done, etc.
I go up, marched straight to my chair and worked, clear as a bell. Beethoven was playing in the background, than Mozart and I felt like I was “one” with these mathematical geniuses of music. Except my pallet was my Macintosh and I was painting my masterpiece....
Splashes of color, beautiful designs, subliminal messages, stunning words, compositions, everything was just flowing and clicking like it had never before...
What can I say? And all this after the “first” dose.
----
In the five days the proceeded I continued to mix work with exercise and a proper diet. And I’m very proud to say that this story has a happy ending...
YES, I fulfilled and completed my contracts with time to spare! I felt SO GOOD that I had risen to the challenge (and did in 6 days what I couldn’t do in 6 months!) and I got all teary ended when I thanked God and the “higher ups” that lead me to find these supplements.
After I ‘posted’ the project and gave it my official seal of approval, I took my girlfriend out for an expensive dinner where I must say, my appearance was abnormally SHARP and my posture and aura was radiant. A glass of wine, and I layed her down on the bed when we got home to make the most deep and love.... afterward she went to sleep immediately.
After she feel asleep I got up, put on my slippers, sat down, and wrote this...
God bless.
***
TO SUM IT UP: NOOTROPICS might just be the best keep secret since LSD. This isn’t a “boost” rather a mind altering change in perception that will transform my life for the better.

Here is my story
I’m currently 17 and before this year I would never have even dreamt of taking any drugs, I was even scared to try weed so I put it off for 4 years. 4 years ago my best friends started smoking and I decided back then that I wanted no part of it and began distancing myself from my drug user friends. As a result I became distanced from everyone and I was unconsciously provoked into a corner where I found myself becoming enveloped in massively multiplayer online games. I began these games young and before I distanced myself from my friends I played games but not like this. I played games from the time I got home from school till I went to bed and neglected all schoolwork.
Anyways my parents had been Divorced since I was born. My father a current alcoholic and my mom a past alcoholic both of them grew up in the drug age and I'm sure they experimented plenty. One night during one of my dad's drunk emotional phone calls to me my father told me that I was actually an accident and that my mother never wanted me and that is the real reason they got divorced.
For years I wrapped myself around my computer screen not living in this world but having become one with a virtual world, my life was based on something intangible and fake. I spent years building relationships with people across the country or in other countries. The virtual world was a world where I didn’t have to worry about anything and just minor annoyances like fighting monsters and dungeons, I had found a temporary way to immerse myself in an unresponsive environment and being ignorant of the real world I continued in fantasy land for 4 years or more.  The 11th grade midterms came rolling around the corner and my responsibilities to real life kicked me in my balls. Gasping for air I frantically tried to cram in as much knowledge as I could, like I said I'm a bright kid, but lazy. I got through the midterms ok and after, feeling completely drained, my friend told me she would bring me home and so she did. Several days later on new years I get a call from my friend (R) telling me to come to this party. The party was being thrown at one of my friends houses whom I had distanced myself from 4 years ago when I began my anti-social curl.
Never having gone to any parties I showed up ignorant of the situation. The friend whose house I was at lets call him (C).  In the past many people have said that C and I look alike, which I thought strange but ignored it. A total stranger bust through the room telling me to take this little white pill, “Nice! an advil”, and so I did ”what a nice guy” I thought. Within 30 minutes my headache was gone and I was feeling amazing, the music really felt good. Later I found out the total stranger mistook my for my friend C, and consequently I received a sample of ecstasy. As I sat on the couch I felt air rushing past my face and I could feel each beat of the strobe light as if it was pushing down on me as I flew upwards through the clouds.
Someone handed me a bowl of weed, as having seen everyone doing this I knew exactly was I was supposed to do with these beautiful orange and green leaves in this shiny bowl, and with the lighter in my hand and my virgin lounges took a deep breath and coughed hard and fell backwards onto the couch and awoke a moment later. Someone handed me 2 hand held back massagers, and they had green lights on them at which I remarked and showed everyone how amazing they were. I began to rave with them, and feeling the power of the MDMA, the feeling of empathy dripping down my face being excreted from my pores only to be reabsorbed a moment later. I wanted others to feel how I felt, I wanted and still want the entire world’s population to feel the empathy, joy, giddiness, sheer euphoria that I had felt.
Never having raved before my friend C showed me how to make a figure 8 with my hand and how to move the lights. The music was coming from the stereo in waves, the waves never broke they were swells, swells in happiness or in vibe I couldn’t tell, but I felt my body my mood, the whole room moving with these unbreakable swells in pleasure and emotion.
Everyone is concerned with the idea of electricity and power and seeking the infinite power source, well I say its been here and it has been here for thousands of years, our ancestors discovered it in its basic uncut raw form. Indian tribes beating their drums circling which their eldest shamanistic guide to lead them through their spiritual journeys and often taking “special” herbs and medicines to invoke “visions of the gods”. Music is an infinite power source, every sound wave resounding endlessly from this CD, and the sound waves that night were pumping into my body, being like a human beacon for the music I felt it flowing through me and like electricity I felt the surge of energy needed to escape through some part of my body. So instead of letting it simply be released back into the air I transformed that energy into physical energy and began to rave for my first time.
Enjoying raving more then having others rave for me I was able to feel my first empathetic experiences in my life. I was able to give other people happiness through raving. I cant take the credit for it though because the music is the real energy I was giving them, I was merely able to shape it into a language that everyone could understand. My friends became entranced with my hand movements as if every motion had a deeper meaning and was actually a message encoded into the music, that only this magical pill could enable me to decipher.
My friends R and C told me that I was amazing at raving and to keep going, so I did. The language of the gods was flowing through me and I felt it in every movement, the hand of the gods. My arms no longer arms but mere puppet strings that followed directions from the music. I had found my passion in life, to make others happy through the unending power of music and raving. I raved until 4 am at which point my friend C told me that everyone was going to bed and that I should do so before my roll wears off so I did.
The next morning was a wonderful one except my lips hurt from sucking on a pacifier. I drove home still feeling very happy and in a very good mood. When I got home I said hi to my mom and gave her a big hug, and ever since that day I’ve been getting progressively nicer to my family and I’m beginning to participate in our family events and things such as that. I’m writing this one month later and I still remember the absolute euphoria I felt. I want everyone to be happy. This little miracle pill changed my life for good or for bad isn’t to be judged because its myself and each individual should decide for themselves their path to enjoyment. I judge people less and I like people way more now. I actually enjoy being in social situations and I especially enjoy being nicer to my parents.
Unfortunately my father is still an alcoholic but there isn’t much I can do about that. Every person wants to feel important and they want to feel like they are doing something that they are good at. I believe that I have found my passion in life which is to make others happy through my power of raving and music, And to practice raving as much as I can because just was with every generation there is something new, something wonderful that brings the nations youth together to enjoy themselves and to bond with each-other, with other humans and to love one another. By raving I feel that I’m spreading my love and joy with others.
Each generation of people has something that bonds them together and thus bonds human kind to other humans. Only people born in that generation can understand others from that generation, and cross generation translations are only 50% understandable at best. I feel bonded to my people in my fellow generation. Life is only available to us for so long as if it were a sort of gateway, and each person needs to find a way to cross the gateway into happiness, because death without happiness means that that person wasted their life, death without happiness is merely decomposition. Being able to find our way across that gate is what life’s journey is. People need to do what ever it is that makes them happy in order to cross that gateway, but trying to escape reality isn’t how it should be done. Making other happy through the power of music and dance and raving is what I’ve discovered to be my crossing quality.
MDMA (ecstasy) was invented originally as a therapeutically medicine. It enables us to unblock mental or social paths, and it completely wipes away social boundaries that are created through a judgmental society. Being able to wipe away those social barricades is nothing short of a miracle and should be using sparingly, people are abusing substances because they are trying to escape from life’s problems. Drugs shouldn’t be taken to hide from reality but to enhance it and enable you to live more then you’ve ever lived before and to bond with humans. Sometimes drugs such as MDMA are prescribed as spiritual tools and can be used as such under proper conditions (in my opinion).
I don’t advocate the use of drugs but I feel that they have enabled me to see my path across that gate in clear view. I believe that I have seen my inner light and it has changed me for the better. People told me I was practically glowing with love and excitement days and weeks after my trip

JSON Encoder/Decoder for PicoLisp
08 Mar 2015You can get it on GitHub.
This library can be used to parse and serialize (encode/decode) JSON strings in PicoLisp.
Explanation: JSON Encoder/Decoder for PicoLisp
This document provides a short walkthrough of the source code for the PicoLisp-JSON encoder/decoder.
It’s split into a few sections for easier reading:
- Global variables: Important variables used throughout the library.
- Native calls (ffi-bindings): The
Parson
native C library, and how it’s used. - Internal functions: Recursion and datatype-checking.
Make sure you read the README to get an idea of what this library does.
Also, I recommend you read my Nanomsg Explanation for additional PicoLisp tips and ideas.
Global variables
PicoLisp does not prevent variables from leaking into the global namespace. In order to prevent that, you must use local and define exactly what should not affect the global namespace. This is important to avoid un-intended side-effects.
(local MODULE_INFO *Json *JSONError *JSONNull)
This will ensure the variables will not affect anything outside their current scope (namespace). It’s similar to var Myvar;
in JavaScript.
A few global variables have been defined at the top of the file.
(setq
*Json (pack (car (file)) "lib/libparson.so")
*JSONError -1
*JSONNull 1
*JSONString 2
*JSONNumber 3
*JSONObject 4
*JSONArray 5
*JSONBoolean 6
*JSONSuccess 0
*JSONFailure -1 )
You’ll notice I’m following the PicoLisp Naming Conventions this time.
The variables prefixed with *JSON
were copied directly from Parson’s source code:
..
enum json_value_type {
JSONError = -1,
JSONNull = 1,
JSONString = 2,
..
When working with a native C library in PicoLisp, it’s important to use the same (or very similar) symbol names to avoid confusion.
Native calls (ffi-bindings)
Parson is a very simple C library, with functions accepting zero to three arguments, and returning simple validated values and structures.
Example:
(json-type (json-parse-string "{\"Hello\":\"World\"}"))
-> 4
This returns 4
which is *JSONObject
based on our variables defined earlier.
As we’ll see later, our picolisp-json
library can make decisions on how to parse data based on these types of results.
Internal functions
The meat of this library is in the internal functions. The (json-parse-string)
and (json-parse-file)
functions validate the JSON string. If those calls are successful, then we can safely iterate over the result and generate our own list.
decoding JSON
We’ll begin by looking at how JSON is decoded in this library.
(iterate-object)
We’ll first look at the (iterate-object)
function. This is a recursive function which loops and iterates through the results of each native C call, and quickly builds a sexy PicoLisp list.
[de iterate-object (Value)
(make
(let Type (json-type Value)
(case Type (`*JSONArray (link-json-array Value))
(`*JSONObject (link-json-object Value))
(`*JSONString (chain (json-string Value)))
[`*JSONBoolean (chain (cond
((= 1 (json-boolean Value)) 'true)
((= 0 (json-boolean Value)) 'false) ]
(`*JSONNumber (chain (json-number Value)))
(`*JSONNull (chain 'null)) ]
Lots of meat there.
(make)
We’ve seen make before, but I didn’t fully explain it.
The (make)
function is the instigator for building a list. You put it at the top or start of your function, and watch it build lists using link and chain.
We use case here as our switch statement. This concept is similar in other programming language. This (case)
call compares the Type
value with those defined as global variables. If a match is found, it runs the following expression. Otherwise it returns NIL
(aka: stop looping, i’m done damnit!).
JSON Arrays and Objects are a bit more tricky to parse, so we’ll get to those later. In the case of String, Boolean, Number or Null
, we add them to the list using (chain)
.
(link-json-array)
When the value is an Array (Type = 5 = *JSONArray
), we loop through it to build a list (arrays are mapped as lists).
[de link-json-array (Value)
(let Arr (json-array Value)
(link T)
(for N (json-array-get-count Arr)
(let Val (json-array-get-value Arr (dec N))
(link (iterate-object Val)) ]
You’ll notice we added (link T)
before the for loop. After long discussions with Alexander Burger, it was made clear that a marker is required to differentiate Objects from Arrays (in PicoLisp). We do that by appending T
as the first element in the list.
The (for)
loop is rather simple, but in each case we’re obtaining new values by performing native C calls, and then adding to the list using (link)
.
If you’ve had your coffee today, you would notice the dec call. As it turns out, (for)
starts with 1 and counts to the total number of items in the Array. We use (dec N)
to start at 0.
Example:
for N 5
N = 1
(json-array-get-value Arr 0)
..
N = 2
(json-array-get-value Arr 1)
..
Finally, the (link)
function makes a call to (iterate-object)
. Remember earlier? when (link-json-array)
was called within (iterate-object)
?
Note: This is called recursion, where a function calls itself (in our case, with a different value). You can ask Google about it.
The reason we perform this recursion is in case the value in the array is itself an array or an object. The (iterate-object)
function will simply return a string, boolean, number or null otherwise.
(link-json-object)
The (link-json-object)
is similar to (link-json-array)
except, you guessed it, it loops over objects.
..
(link (cons Name (iterate-object Val)))
..
The other difference is during the (link)
call, it appends a cons pair instead of a single value. We do this because a JSON Object is represented as a (cons)
pair in PicoLisp.
{"hello":"world"} <-> '(("hello" . "world"))
Of course, this function also recursively calls (iterate-object)
.
encoding JSON
Decoding was fun, because Parson
did most of the work for us. Encoding is ugly, so I tried to make it as simple and intuitive as possible (less chance for bugs).
(iterate-list)
Since we now have a friendly JSON string represented as a PicoLisp list, we’ll iterate over it and turn it back into a JSON string.
[de iterate-list (Item)
(let Value (cdr Item)
(or
(get-null Value)
(get-boolean Value)
(get-json-number Value)
(get-json-string Value)
(get-json-array Value)
(make-object Value) ]
This is a bit sneaky, but I :heart: it. I’m not sure how efficient it is either, but it works well, and I’d rather have slow, but valid data than fast, but invalid data
It’s not slow, in fact it’s incredibly fast based on my opinion of what fast looks like.
This function uses or as a conditional statement. The Value
passes through each function to determine the type of value it is, as well as to convert it to a string, number, boolean, null, or whatever.
(get-null)
This function does nothing special, but I wanted to show something interesting.
[de get-null (Value)
(when (== 'null Value) "null") ]
You’ll notice we check if Value
is ==
to 'null
. What’s going on here? Using double equal signs checks for Pointer equality. This is really important, make sure you understand the difference for a happy PicoLisp life.
This checks if the things we’re comparing are not just equal, but also identical. In other words: Is null
the exact same thing as null
(Value
). Not "null"
or NULL
or any other variation, but null
. Yes. Got it?
(get-json-array)
You should remember earlier we discussed appending T
as the first element in the list, in the case of an Array.
[de get-json-array (Value)
(when (=T (car Value)) (make-array (cdr Value))) ]
What we’re doing here is checking if the car of the Value
is T
. If yes, then call the (make-array)
function.
(make-array)
This function builds an Array suitable for JSON.
[de make-array (Value)
(pack "["
(glue ","
(mapcar
'((N) (iterate-list (cons NIL N)))
Value ) )
"]" ]
We’ve seen what pack does. We use it to build our Array with opening and closing []
brackets.
The cool thing I discovered recently is glue. It is similar to Array.join()
in Ruby and JavaScript, by concatenating a list with the supplied argument. In our case, it’s a comma ,
.
Here we’re doing something a little different.
If you remember (mapcar)
, you’ll know the first argument is a function, but in this code we have this:
'((N) (iterate-list (cons NIL N)))
Above is an anonymous function. If you’re familiar with Ruby, it looks something like this:
->(N) { iterate-list [nil, N] }
In the case of PicoLisp, our function that we defined on the fly will be applied to the Value
, but will first make a recursive call to (iterate-list)
with a (cons)
pair as its argument.
(make-object)
This function is almost identical to (make-array)
, except it generates a JSON Object using opening and closing {}
braces, of course iterating recursively with (iterate-list)
.

Woman Left Blind After Spending $26,000 Tattooing Her Eyeballs
by George PavlouA body-modifier dubbed ‘Blue Eyed White Dragon’ went blind for three weeks after spending $26,000 on getting blue ink tattooed into her eyes.
Advertisements
Amber Luke, 24, from Central Coast, New South Wales, Australia, spent 40 minutes in the chair during the excruciating procedure, risking going permanently blind in order to achieve her perfect look.
With 200 tattoos from head to toe, breast augmentation, cheek and lip fillers as well as pointed implants placed in her ears, Amber is no stranger to cosmetic surgery pain.
Advertisements
But the 24-year-old says by far her most dangerous procedure was getting the ink injected into her eyes.
Amber told Barcroft TV:
I can’t even begin to describe to you what the feeling was like, the best thing I can give you is once the eyeball was penetrated with the ink, it felt like [the tattoo artist] grabbed 10 shards of glass and rubbed it in my eye.
The injection took place four times per eye and was described by Amber as ‘pretty brutal’.
She continued:
Advertisements
Unfortunately, my artist went too deep into my eyeball.
If your eyeball procedure’s done correctly, you’re not supposed to go blind at all.
I was blind for three weeks.
Despite her previous commitments to body modification, Amber says the eyeball inking was the last of her ‘extreme’ modifications, but does still plan to be ‘fully covered’ by March 2020.
Speaking previously to Daily Mail Australia, Amber described the procedure as ‘very intense and very painful’, with her eyes being held open as a syringe was injected into each eye four times over.
Amber’s mother, Vikki, says she broke down in tears when her daughter got her eyeballs tattooed and said ‘a few choice words’.
Advertisements
Vikki told Barcroft TV:
As we know as parents, some kids will just do what they want to do, regardless of what we say.
But I brought her into the world with the best skills that I could give, the best that I could give her it’s just for me to be there and go along the journey with her.
And prop her up, and love her.
Amber’s mother claims she ‘never saw herself as being beautiful’ and, as any mother would, tried supporting her as best she could through the transitions.
Mothers are full of wisdom, and Vikki is no different, saying:
I think over time, I’ve learned to actually understand that it doesn’t change you.
It’s society’s perception on it.
Amber previously stunned her 137,000 Instagram followers by sharing a picture of herself as a 14-year-old schoolgirl but said she ‘hates the way she used to look’.
She added:
It wasn’t me. But I’ve evolved myself over the years into what I want to be and look like, but in saying that, I still have a long way to go.
It was only after Amber’s 16th birthday she developed an addiction to tattoos and says she has no regrets over the transformation that’s taken place over the past ten years.
Naturally, and with anything outside society’s norms, Amber’s look has been met with a mixed response.
However, and I don’t say this lightly, it’s 2019 and it’s not bothering you in the slightest so just live and let live.

4 May 2010 - The Ministry of Health of Cambodia has announced a new confirmed case of human infection with the H5N1 avian influenza virus.
The 27-year-old male, from Prey Veng Province, developed symptoms on 13 April 2010, was admitted to the hospital on 16 April and died the following day. The presence of the H5N1 virus was confirmed by the National Influenza Centre, the Institute Pasteur in Cambodia. The patient prepared and consumed sick poultry in the 7 days before onset of symptoms.
To date, Cambodia has reported 10 laboratory confirmed cases with 8 deaths since 2005.


Resident Evil 2, Control and Days Gone came out on top at this year’s Golden Joysticks Awards
by Darryn BonthuysThe year may be drawing to a close, but it’s also a time of celebration. Of looking back at the months that were and saying “hot damn was 2019 good”. On the cusp of a new console generation, 2019 was gaming at its very finest and worst when you think about it. Old legends returned to glorious new heights as single-player games surged forward in quality as gamers got fed up with peak live service game launches, indies remained as groundbreaking as ever and pure thrills based on proven formulas filled the spaces between big budget releases.
Which means that obviously , its award season time.
This year’s Golden Joysticks event started the season of kudos, setting the tempo for which games you can probably expect to see clean up big at various outlets and upcoming events.

To Be Updated
Chances are many of you won’t even care what this is about. But after quite a few struggles of setting up CVS/SVN with SSH on various opensource servers, as well as configure IDEA and Eclipse to use the private key, I think this is a topic that worth documenting, so that I don’t have to repeat myself.

{{ prototypingDetailsChangelog({ "text": "Changelog", "sprintNumber": 1 }) }}Here is an example of the new easy-route button.
Just feed the
next
key with a route value and that’s where it'll go.
No more fiddling around with
routes.js
every time you need to add a new page.

To create a new sprint:
app/views/SPRINTNAME
folder and make sure it is named for the new sprint (sprintn+1
)app/assets/config/SPRINTNAME
folder and make sure it is named for the new sprint (sprintn+1
)app/assets/config/SPRINTNAME/changelog.md
file remove the old data and add an entry for the creation of the new sprintapp/assets/config/SPRINTNAME/routes.js
fileThen make this the new current sprint:
currentSprint
variable in the root
app/config.js
fileapp/views/index.html
) content to reflect the new current sprint and move the old one to the “previous” sectionThe current sprint prototype can always be reached via use of the word current in place of the sprint name in the url
Instead of using this:
http://localhost:3000/sprint17/section-name/page-name
You can reference this:
http://localhost:3000/current/section-name/page-name
This means a consistent url can be added to user stories without worrying that you are pointing to an old sprint.
Accessing an older sprint than the one set as current in the
app/config.js
will show a warning banner at the top of the page to alert you to the fact you might be viewing an outdated screen.
Each sprint has an associated changelog, a markdown file which lists the UR-related changes made to the prototype during that period. This is pulled into the list above.
This means:

app/assets/config/documentation/changelog.md
