Because it hurts. Because my skin is red-hot with freezing sweat that pipes from my pores like ice-cream, curling up and settling until it spreads across the duvet that begins to tighten like a velum over my body. Because I sneeze and sneeze and cough and shiver and my eyes have to squint to take in anything. Everything I donít want to, everything that has eluded its necessity, its reason. Because of this I have things.
The kitchen is full of mess though I havenít eaten. It is mugs and cereal dishes, about thirty thousand of them. The plants are dead, but they were lovely, old, they had travelled with me, and now theyíre dying. The sink smells of the fish I ate three months ago, it could be four, it couldíve been years. It couldíve been days. Maybe I never ate a fish, it seems unlikely now.
Thereís a fully-functional, disused bath in the sickroom. The toilet overflows with vomit from many unknown mouths, their voices are still here too, mainly silent, but muttering here and there. Thereís a scrubbing brush in my hand and porcelain under the goo. The window opens but itíll have to wait because a breeze of cold nails will fly in, and land bulls-eye on every pore, twisting in and dissolving. The bleach smells good, smells better at least. The bowl sparkles and shines. The toilet is beautiful now. I run water into the bath to wash away the dust and hair. Soon, when my skin relaxes I will sit in it. This could be days, but itís ready, waiting for that day. Maybe my body will be as good as the toilet then. But itíll wait, because it hurts, because my skin is red-hot with freezing........
Thereís no fish remains in the kitchen sink which makes it worse cos I donít know what else could smell like that. The waterís brown, soupy, suspending, the sediment is death powder, of no use but to remind. I puke in the sink before I start.
I pour five half bottles of wine into the sink. I jam my fingers into the plug-jam and it all starts draining. I wash everything there is, I rinse it all twice, there are no suds left, no death powder, no stench of an absent yet nonetheless effecting decay.
I change into some origin unknown clothes, they are clean but ill-fitting, they are possibly womans jeans, but enough to take me to the launderette, where the lady will wash my clothes of the past they shared with me, the one they retain a memory of. A heavy one I imagine. What is this dust? Where is it from? What is this fluff. Shit the fluffís worse than the dust. The vacuum will lift the dust, this I know, the fluff however, I think the vacuum makes it worse. I need a fluff-vacuum, something like that. First Iíll sleep.
Iím sweating so much I wake in a hopeful dream Iím swimming. This lasts a good ten minutes before I notice the bath has run over, and I awake-proper watching it all drain wastefully away, the floor scrulching underfoot.
I heat some soup and throw it away. The front room. Oh god the fluff. I take a broom to it, the work makes me hot, which makes me cold, which makes me shiver, which heats me up, which makes me cold.
I sent my girlfriend packing recently.  I sent her packing, but what would she have packed? Sheís gone though. I look around, what has she taken, what might she have taken, what would she want to take from this museum of mine, of me, of what I was? Certainly not the fluff. She probably put it there. Thatís female fluff for sure!
Because it hurts. Because my skin is red-hot with freezing sweat that pipes from my pores like cream, curling up and settling until spread across the duvet that begins to tighten like a velum over my body. Because I sneeze and sneeze and cough and shiver and my eyes have to squint to take in everything. Everything I donít want to, everything that has eluded itís necessity, itís reason.
Because of this, Iím leaving the horse alone.

Euro 2020 qualifiers: Cristiano Ronaldo reaches 99 international goals as holders Portugal qualify for Euro 2020 finals next summer
by Sporting LifeCristiano Ronaldo reached 99 international goals as he helped defending champions Portugal qualify for the Euro 2020 finals next summer.
Portugal will be able to defend the title they won in France in 2016 after a 2-0 win over Luxembourg saw them beat Serbia to the second automatic spot from their qualifying group.
It was a tough game for Portugal against stubborn and well-drilled opposition on a difficult pitch, but they got ahead with a superb touch and finish from Brune Fernandes six minutes before half time.
Luxembourg continued to frustrate the visitor, who only made sure of their qualification four minutes from the end thanks to an expert piece of goal-poaching from the Juventus man.
Goal line technology might have thought otherwise had it been active in the game, as Ronaldo prodded home Diogo Jota's effort right on the shadow of the line.
That took Ronaldo to 99 international goals, but despite having a few other opportunities he could not reach three figures for his country - and the wait for that landmark stretches on a further game.
Serbia were battling with Portugal for the second automatic spot, but they were held to a 2-2 draw against group winners Ukraine, who had already sealed qualification.
A 93rd-minute winner from Artem Biesiedin condemned Serbia to the play-offs as it stands.

Warning: Rant ahead!
In many applications, there will be cases where something so bad happens that the application cannot continue executing reliably. In those cases, it is a good practice to fail as fast as possible to avoid compromising something critical (like corrupting the user's data). However, if you're going to fail, do so gracefully.
This means not only that you should try to fail as cleanly as possible, but that you should also make your best effort to leave clear hints of what happened that warranted such a serious action. At the very least, this will make it easier to diagnose trouble and, in doing that, it will help the poor developer maintain his sanity.
I've been working quite a bit with Windows Communication Foundation lately, and I'm using a lot one of my favourite features: Self-hosted services using the ServiceHost infrastructure. However, I do have one big gripe with it:
When you're starting your self-hosted service, you'll likelike have your configuration ready on your app.config file (though you can do so through code as well), you'll create your ServiceHost instance and then call Open() on it. During that process, ServiceHost will read your configuration and configure itself accordingly and if something is not quite right, it will fail right then and there by switching to the Faulted state and throwing an exception such as this:
System.ServiceModel.CommunicationObjectFaultedException: The communication object, System.ServiceModel.ServiceHost, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state.
What it does not do is tell you why the heck it faulted in the first place! Oh, sure, there's a Faulted event in the ServiceHost class you can attach to, and one might think initially that it would provide more information about the problem, but one would be wrong. It drives me crazy!
So, consider this a friendly suggestion for WCF v.Next (you know, 2 or 3 years from now): When there's a problem, please tell us what it is. Or include a crystal ball with the product or something.

Goa CM Pramod Sawant calls Oppn allegation baseless, warns of defamation suit
He has also warned of a defamation suit against “liars”. “It’s 2.966 acres of land. A decimal point is missing. I have informed my advocate and sought legal opinion about a case,” he told the media.
by Express News ServiceA week after Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant was accused by the Opposition of huge land purchases in neighbouring Dodamarg, he has alleged that the accusation is political, and a “decimal is missing” in the affidavit.
He has also warned of a defamation suit against “liars”. “It’s 2.966 acres of land. A decimal point is missing. I have informed my advocate and sought legal opinion about a case,” he told the media.
Goa Forward Party’s Vijai Sardesai and Congress have alleged that Sawant was benefiting “from a real estate speculation” after buying huge tracts of land.
On Monday, Sawant said the allegations were baseless and politically motivated. “I have not purchased it illegally but with money from my account. I have taken loan from a bank,” he said. “I am clean… He (Sardesai) should stop lying or else he can face legal action.” ens

Don't use user input in format strings. Use C++ stream functions to avoid using formatted input-output functions, if possible. (Re-)Write code to guarantee that user input is never used in format strings.
An attacker that can control the contents of a format string may be able to execute arbitrary code.
Avoid using user input in format strings when using formatted input-output functions.
Perform the following actions to assure that user input is not used in format strings:
Identify code that uses formatted input-output functions. The following is a list of formatted input-output functions:
sprintf
_snprintf
printf
fprintf
scanf
fscanf
sscanf
swprintf
wsprintfA
wsprintfW
vsprintf
vswprintf
_snwprintf
_vsnprintf
_vsnwprintf
vprintf
vwprintf
vfprintf
vwfprintf
fwscanf
wscanf
swscanf
Avoid using formatted functions. Consider replacing formatted input-output functions with iostream C++ functions, which are not prone to format string vulnerabilities.
(Re-)Write code to exclude user input from format strings. Use static format strings with formatted I/O functions or avoid using formatted I/O functions altogether.
A classic format string vulnerability example:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
if (argc != 2) return 0;
printf(argv[1]);
return 1;
}
Compilers can often detect such vulnerabilities and produce warnings like this:
format_string_vuln.c:7:1: warning: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Wformat-security]
Make sure that user input is not processed as a format string by specifying a static format string and then passing user input as data to it:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
if (argc != 2) return 0;
printf("%s", argv[1]);
return 1;
}

--- layout: post title: SharePoint, SPWeb Objects and Dispose() date: 2010-07-16 11:10:00.000000000 +02:00 categories: [] tags: - Dispose - SharePoint status: publish type: post published: true meta: {} author: login: admin email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>display_name: Philippe first_name: Philippe last_name: Vlérick excerpt: !ruby/object:Hpricot::Doc options: {} ---
If you worked a bit with SharePoint, you surely know how important it is to dispose of SPSite objects, SPWeb objects and such.
However, these objects are sometimes retrieved by using another object’s property. A very common one is SPContext.Current that has properties to return the current SPSite and SPWeb.
Needless to say, calling dispose on an object that you got via another object’s property seems utterly rude.  When I see code doing this, I get very suspicious.
Here is a common example:
using (SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web) { //Do something with web }
Using reflector, here is what SPContext.Web does:
public SPWeb Web { get { if (this.m_web == null) { this.m_web = SPControl.GetContextWeb(this.m_context); } return this.m_web; } }
As we can see, this returns a private field of type SPWeb. Calling Dispose() on that (via the using statement) is clearly not very nice to our beloved SPContext. This kind of coding is known to bring unexpected errors. In fact, FxCop will raise a warning if it is set to check for SharePoint Best Practices Rules.
If this is a general rule, there are of course exceptions, I believe due to some inconsistencies in the API. Here is one of them:
SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web; foreach (SPWeb subWeb in web.Webs) { //Do something with subWeb subWeb.Dispose(); }
In this particular case, we iterate over a collection of SPWeb objects trough the SPWeb.Webs property. As said before, at first sight, this looks bad.
Again, using reflector, this is what the Webs property does:
public SPWebCollection Webs { get { if (this.m_Webs == null) { this.m_Webs = new SPWebCollection(new SPWebCollectionProvider(this), this.m_guidId); } return this.m_Webs; } }
It is very similar to the previous code, so it feels very unnatural to call Dispose() on all object that are held in that collection.
However, this is the way to go, otherwise FxCop will raise a warning saying that SPWeb objects were not disposed of. In my opinion, this shouldn’t be a property, but a method called GetWebs() or something similar, as explained in Framework Design Guidelines.

Cohesin Degradation Eliminates Loop Domains
A loop resolution Hi-C map showing all contacts within an 700kb genomic interval, generated using HCT-116 human
colorectal carcinoma cells. Loops, which form here due to physical tethering between two CTCF- and cohesin-bound loci,
manifest as bright peaks away from the diagonal. Contact domains, genomic intervals that exhibit enhanced contact
frequency within themselves, manifest as bright squares along the diagonal. When the two anchors of a loop demarcate
a contact domain, the resulting feature is called a "loop domain". Left: A loop resolution Hi-C map showing

Understanding the CSS Box Model: Borders, Margins, and Padding
June 20, 2015
Modern web design relies on a very traditional, almost patriarchal concept: strict division of labor between partners. According to the latest recommendations, the two languages at the foundation of every webpage, HTML and CSS, should perform very prescribed roles: HTML handles all the big words and big ideas as well as their semantic meaning (content), whereas CSS concerns itself almost exclusively with beauty (form...and formatting).
This division of labor actually makes a lot of sense for web design. When aesthetic tastes shift and what was considered beautiful or cutting-edge falls out of fashion, a web designer can make changes to the underlying CSS to rejuvenate the site without needing to touch or alter the content contained in the HTML. This makes “changing outfits” effortless and easy (aside from conceptualizing them, designing them, making sure they’re user-friendly, making sure they’re cross-browser and cross-device compatible, etc., etc.). But, at the very least, possessing mastery over CSS allows a designer to faithfully execute his or her design ideas.
The Box Model
The road to becoming a true CSS virtuoso is a long and arduous one. For many people, the first step on this virtual Iditarod is to understand the box model which lies at the core of CSS.   Of course, things that are more explicitly boxes are possible too—here’s an example of two rectangles (200 pixels by 100 pixels) that I’ve defined using CSS:
These two boxes are “naked.” What do I mean by that? I mean that they lack the three additional rectangular boxes that usually surround the rectangular box of the core element. In fact, it’s not too much of a stretch to consider every web element as a set of four rectangular boxes—the core element, which is surrounded by padding, which is in turn surrounded by a border, which is in turn surrounded by a margin. Or, in graphical terms:
A web designer can choose any combination of these three surrounding boxes to enhance a website’s layout. But how does he know when to use which element? What differentiates them from each other? A good understanding of this goes a long way toward understanding the whole CSS box model.
Seven different images follow that illustrate the varying functions and behavior of borders, margins, and padding. Source code is included at the bottom of the images. For all of the images, the space on the webpage that light blue rectangle actually occupies is 260 pixels by 160 pixels (despite still being defined as 200 x 100 pixels). But, as you’ll notice, the way through which this is accomplished varies greatly.
Borders: Delimit by choosing your own color and pattern
The thing that makes the border property unique among CSS boxes is that it’s possible to choose a separate color for it. It is not possible to do this with margins or padding. Beyond that, borders serve as, well, borders that delimit the enclosed content and make it stand out vis-à-vis other elements on the webpage:
It’s also possible to choose one of several patterns for the border style, as this quite questionable combination of colors shows:
Margins: A buffer zone the same color or pattern as the page background
Margins, on the other hand, provide a nice buffer between different elements (different boxes) on the webpage. The key characteristic to remember is that the background of the page bleeds through when using a margin. For that reason, some people conceptualize CSS margins as being “transparent”:
Note here that the content box and text “Div #1” are in the exact same position as in the preceding two images; the only difference is the type of surrounding box we’ve activated in CSS.
Padding: Breathing space that inherits the color or pattern of the content box
The last of the three CSS properties, padding offers some breathing space between the content and the rectangular box that encloses it. If you scroll up, you’ll notice that the “D” in each of the boxes abuts the side of the content box it’s contained in—something that’s about as pleasant to see as the verb “abut” is to hear. By defining a measurement for the padding, this problem can be averted:
As seen above, padding takes its color from the background defined for the content box (rather than the page background like a margin would, although in practice these two backgrounds are frequently the same). Furthermore, if a background pattern or image has been defined for the content box, then the padding will inherit this, as this flipped version of our basic webpage shows:
All Together Now
While each CSS box property is useful because they each have different inheritance rules, their real power is unleashed when they are all used together to serve the functions they were build for. The light blue box in this image has 10 pixels of padding, 10 pixels of border, and 10 pixels of margin:
A more true-to-life application of the three properties would look something like this:
There is just enough padding (eight pixels worth) so that the text doesn’t look crammed up against the edge of the box. The two-pixel border boldly declares that this content stands all on its own. And, lastly, the generous 20-pixel margin buffers our celestial blue box from the incursion of the contusion-colored purple box. Notice that when all these properties are combined together using the sizes we’ve defined, we’re occupying the same 260 x 160 pixel box of space as in the previous six images.
Summary
The purpose of this post was to provide an easy-to-understand introduction to the CSS box model and the functions and behavior of borders, margins, and padding. If I’ve been successful, what should be your next step? Now that you know the basics, the best way to get a solid feel for how the CSS box model works is to experiment, experiment, experiment. I would recommend first messing around with your own code either directly in your text editor (keep a separate browser window open so you can track the changes by reloading) or using Chrome’s DevTools or Firefox’s Firebug. If you need a reminder about the CSS box properties along the way, you can refer to this table for help:
| CSS Property | Function | Inheritance Rule |
|---|---|---|
| border | delimits | none (choose your own color) |
| margin | buffer zone | same as page background |
| padding | breathing space | same as content’s background |
Having a firm grasp of all four boxes of the CSS box model is a prerequisite for successfully handling intermediate- and advanced-level CSS tasks such as defining position, setting floats, constructing columns, and creating slick navigation bars. Therefore, anyone who wants to use CSS to beautify their great content should strive to gain a deep understanding of the box model.
Or just use WordPress or Squarespace instead. We’re all given a finite amount of time on this earth after all.


H.B. Woodrose Seeds
I found myself ahead on a writing deadline and with nothing to do on a Tuesday afternoon, so I decided to experiment with Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds. Although I had eaten a large meal the night before, I had had nothing to eat during the day, and so I hoped to avoid the nausea that had been reported by some users. This nausea is attributed either to the seeds themselves, or to coatings supposedly put on seeds by seed companies to discourage this sort of thing, depending on who you talk to. A third suspicion of mine was that people were more likely to try morning glory seeds than HBWR seeds, and that it takes a whole lot more of the former to feel any effects, and that it was the sheer quantity of the seeds that was causing nausea in these people. In any case, I'm writing this at about 2:05PM and will find out shortly... :-`
HBWR seeds, like morning glory seeds, contain such nicely active ingredients as d-lysergic acid amide and d-isolysergic acid amide (a.k.a. ergine & isoergine) which are close relatives of your old friend and pal (can you believe she's 50?) d-lysergic acid diethylamide (a.k.a. LSD). According to Peter Stafford's 'Psychedelics Encyclopedia' (3rd Expanded Edition, pp. 98-99):
'Lysergic acid amides are quite concentrated in the seeds of this ornamental, much more so than in psychedelic morning glories. Four to six seeds (the contents of one or two pods) are the equivalent of 100 to 150 Ipomoea morning glory seeds and will produce a full-blown experience. The result is generally more tranquil than what is induced by LSD. While LSD is perceived by most users as having stimulant effects, to which a few people are particularly sensitive, the botanical sources have more of a slowing or depressant effect. Some users complain that they have had a hangover, which has been characterized by Emboden as possibly involving `nausea, vertigo, blurred vision and physical inertia.' More often, however, these seeds have invigorated their users, leaving them feeling as though they had been on vacation afterwards.'
Stafford recommended (with Morning Glories) that 'seeds should be ground to a flour before use; it's also a good idea to soak them in water -- the psychoactive components are soluble -- and then to strain the liquid through cheesecloth. The amides of value are in the liquid, which is ready for consumption.' I did not follow this advice directly -- I soaked the whole seeds and put them in a blender.
I was also unable to find motion sickness tablets at the supermarket, and so am not testing out another piece of advice that was given to me -- take some dramamine before the seeds to reduce nausea.
Also mentioned by Stafford was that 'high dosages are not advisable -- beyond a certain level, experience so far has shown a tendency for limbs to get bluish' (perhaps by the same gangrene-producing effect as that produced by the ergot fungus in `ergotism'). I decided to look out for this effect as best as I could.
1:30 PM -- I covered six seeds with hot tap water in a small bowl.
1:50 PM -- I poured the seeds and water into a small food processor and chopped the seeds as well as I could. It was a bit like chopping up small, soft rocks. I then added some orange juice, a few frozen cherries, raspberries, and strawberries, and blended for another minute or so.
2:00 PM -- I began to drink the resulting mixture, and I packed a small bowl of marijuana to smoke to combat possible nausea. My hope was that the effects of the marijuana would have vanished by the time the HBWR seeds began to work their wonders.
2:15 PM -- I am nicely high and reaching the bottom of my psychic smoothie.
2:25 PM -- I am very high and have finished off said smoothie.
2:45 PM -- Wow, that was great dope. No nausea yet.
3:10 PM -- Got munchies; had some soda crackers. No nausea or other ill effects. Still feel pleasantly high. I cannot tell at this juncture whether this is just good dope or whether HWBR are starting up.
3:45 PM -- At this point I am experiencing nothing that I cannot plausably attribute to lingering marijuana effects.
4:00 PM -- By now, I would have expected the marijuana effects to have just about ended. I'm experiencing mild visual distortions (walls breathing) and some tactile enhancement (carpet between my toes feels nice). Nothing like a 'full-blown experience' yet. Also, there is very minor auditory enhancement, and some of those LSD leg jitters (wanting to keep time to some beat about 4x/second).
4:30 PM -- Became sleepy, started to doze off during 'Voodoo Chile.' Was awakened by bass guitar shaking my left foot. Still no nausea or ill effects, but I'm most definately stoned. Sort of like LSD, but without the early rush. More like what LSD would be like if you missed the first four hours. Either that, or I'm just starting the climb.
5:05 PM -- No increase in effects. If this is all there is, I'm not too impressed.
5:30 PM -- Doesn't seem to be going anywhere. I just feel mildly strange and slightly uncoordinated.
6:00 PM -- Still slightly stoned. Ate vegies and bread and cheese. Not much happening. I think I'll try a few more seeds next time and see how that works. This must be one of those 'physical inertia' trips... Oh well, better luck next time.
7:35 PM -- Am almost completely down. In retrospect, it wasn't completely unexciting, and with the right set and setting might have been very nice. Very mellow, though. Not too much going on. Much less auditory effects than I would expect from LSD or marijuana. No limb bluing, no nausea.

Understanding Binary
Binary or base 2 is like our regular base 10 numbering system but instead using 1-10 it uses 0-1.
As an example, counting in binary looks like this:
0000 = 0
0001 = 1
0010 = 2
0011 = 3
0100 = 4
0101 = 5
0110 = 6
How is this accomplished?
The binary number 0111 is converted to decimal or base 10 by taking the values of each bit and adding
them together to get the decimal number the nibble represents.
This can be explained further by the video below
from techquickie.
Flip the switches to see how turning on and off bits in the nibble changes the number.
It is important to learn how to quickly calculate nibbles of binary quickly because nibbles will be used more in later chapters and later in your career.
Useful Definitions
Bit - a single digit of binary notation, represented either by 0 or by 1Nibble - 4 bits that can equal 0-16
Byte - 8 bits 0000 0000 can equal 0- 255
Try it yourself!
QUIZ GAME HERE!!!
This part should be 5 questions like What is 0010 in Decimal, 1111 in Decimal, 1001 in Decimal, 1100 in Decimal, 0011 in Decimal.


Markeven recognizes following block-level elements:
Block elements are always delimited by two or more line ends (\n\n
):
This is a paragraph
this is a code block
But this is still
a paragraph.
This behavior is different from Markdown, which interprets last block as two blocks: paragraph and code block.
A paragraph is simply one or more lines of text. Multiple lines are joined into a single paragraph:
Paragraph one.
Paragraph two.
More text.
Paragraph three.
More text.
Even more text.
Following markup will be generated:

Paragraph one.

Paragraph two. More text.

Paragraph three. More text. Even more text.

Like in Markdown, if you wish to place linebreak, leave two or more space characters at the end of the line.
Section is a block which is rendered into an HTML div
element. Each line of a section must start with a pipe |
character:
| This is a section with two paragraphs.
| I am the first one.
|
| And I am the second one.
Following markup will be generated:

This is a section with two paragraphs. I am the first one.

And I am the second one.

Sections are frequently used in conjunction with block selectors by web designers to achieve certain effects like styling, animating, etc.
Markeven supports both ATX and Setex styles proposed by Markdown:
This is first-level heading
===========================
This is second-level heading
----------------------------
# First level again
## Second level here
### Third level
#### Fourth level
##### Fifth level
###### Sixth level
Unline Markdown, Markeven do not allow closing #
s, so following example:
# This is a heading which ends with #
will be transformed into:

This is a heading which ends with #

Code blocks are used to write about programming or markup stuff. Their contents is usually rendered using monospaced font and is interpreted literally. To produce a code block, indent every line of block with at least 4 spaces or 1 tab:
Here's some code:
println("Hello world!")
Markeven will produce:

Here's some code:

println("Hello world!")

Lists in Markeven have strict rules which help you build highly structured documents.
The first thing to know about is a list marker. Ordered lists must start with 1.
followed by at least one space. Unordered lists must start with *
followed by at least one space. Every subsequent list item must start with the same marker (a number followed by a dot and whitespace in case of ordered lists):
1. list item 1
2. list item 2
* list item 1
* list item 2
Here is generated markup for the above snippet:

list item 1

list item 2

list item 1

list item 2

Lists items can contain another block-level elements. To interpret whitespace-sensitive blocks properly, you should maintain the same indentation inside list items. We refer to this indentation as list item baseline:
* This paragraph is under first list item.
This paragraph is also under first list item, because
it is properly indented.
* This list item has another baseline.
So we should indent our second paragraph accordingly.
This paragraph, however, is outside list.
Following markup will be generated:

This paragraph is under first list item.

This paragraph is also under first list item, because it is properly indented.

This list item has another baseline.

So we should indent our second paragraph accordingly.

This paragraph, however, is outside list.

Nested lists follow the same rules:
1. List 1 item 1
2. List 1 item 2
1. List 2 item 1
2. List 2 item 2
3. List 1 item 3
Codeblocks can also be nested inside list items. Each line of a code block must be indented with at least 4 spaces or 1 tab relatively to list item's baseline:
1. Code inside list item:
def sayHello = {
println("Hello world!")
}
You can also add a visual guide indicating current list item baseline using the pipe |
character. It can be useful in cases when the list item is long and its content is complex:
1. | This is a long and complex list item.
|
| code block
|
| * another list
| * ...
2. And that's it.
Note that list items belong to the same list only if their markers are equaly indented. Following example shows two different lists:
* List one item one
* List one item two
* List two item one
* List two item two
And a paragraph.
Here's the markup:

List one item one

List one item two

List two item one

List two item two

And a paragraph.

Markeven supports simple syntax for tables:
---------------------------------------------
| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 |
--------------|--------------|---------------
| one | two | three |
| four | five | six |
---------------------------------------------
Here's the markup:

Column 1
Column 2
Column 3

one
two
three

four
five
six

As you can see, the first and the last line of table should consist of minus -
characters only. The only exception to this rule is that the first line can optionally end with >
character. If >
character is there, the width of table will expand to its maximum.
Cells are separated by the pipe |
character, you can omit leading and trailing pipes. Table header is separated from table body by the separator line. This line can optionally contain semicolon :
characters to express column alignment: a semicolon to the left side means left alignment, a semicolon to the right side means right alignment, two semicolons at both ends means center alignment:
---------------------------------------------
| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 |
-------------:|:------------:|:--------------
| one | two | three |
| four | five | six |
---------------------------------------------
You can also omit the header, in this case you cannot specify column alignment with semicolons:
--------------------
one | two | three
--------------------
Blockquotes are similar to sections, but they are rendered into HTML blockquote
element. Each line of a blockquote must start with >
character. Like sections, blockquotes can contain nested block elements:
> This is blockquote.
>
> > This blockquote is nested.
>
> That's it.
Here's generated markup:

This is blockquote.

This blockquote is nested.

That's it.

A horizontal ruler is rendered from a block which contains three or more minus -
characters:
This is some text.
---
This is some more text.
Following markup will be produced by Markeven:

This is some text.

This is some more text.

No other syntaxes for

are supported.
Markeven allows you to place HTML elements right inside your text. Their content won't get processed:

This text won't get transformed into a code block

But this will.
There are no strict rules about inline HTML. The only important thing is that your markup should be correct (tags closed and properly nested). Markeven does not have the ability to “fix” wrong HTML markup yet :)
Each block can optionally have a selector. It is used to add id
and class
HTML attributes to blocks:
I have an id. {#para1}
I have two classes. {.class1.class2}
I have an id and a class. {#para3.class1}
The example above will be transformed into a following HTML snippet:

I have an id.

I have two classes.

I have an id and a class.

The most common use of selectors is to assign id
attribute so that they can be used in links:
Now I can be referenced by id! {#mypara}
Look! I can reference [another paragraph](#mypara).
The selector expression is enclosed into curly braces and must be placed at the end of the first line of the block (no trailing whitespace allowed!).
Inside block level elements following text enhancements occur:
`
characters is transformed into code
span;_
becomes em
(emphasized);*
becomes strong
(strongly emphasized);~
becomes del
(deleted);various typographic improvements are applied to text:
--
are replaces with — (long tiret);...
are replaced with …;<-
and ->
are replaced with ← and → accordingly;(c)
, (r)
and (tm)
are replaced with ©, ®, ™;You can also use backslash escaping to prevent misinterpreting special characters. Following characters can be escaped: \`_*{}[]()#+-~.!
Two style of links are supported: inline and reference.
Inline links look like this: [my text](http://my_url)
or [some text](http://some_url "some title")
and are rendered into HTML a
element: my text
and some text
.
Reference-style links are split into link definition and link usage. Using previous examples, here's how link definitions could look like:
[id1]: http://my_url
[id2]: http://some_url "some title"
Link usages would then look like this: [my text][id1]
and [some text][id2]
. The generated markup equals to the previous one.

Vim documentation: russian
main help file*russian.txt* For Vim version 7.2. Last change: 2006 Apr 24 VIM REFERENCE MANUAL by Vassily Ragosin Russian language localization and support in Vim *russian* *Russian* 1. Introduction |russian-intro| 2. Russian keymaps |russian-keymap| 3. Localization |russian-l18n| 4. Known issues |russian-issues|
= 1. Introduction *russian-intro* Russian language is supported perfectly well in Vim. You can type and view Russian text just as any other, without the need to tweak the settings.
= 2. Russian keymaps *russian-keymap* To switch between languages you can use your system native keyboard switcher, or use one of the Russian keymaps, included in the Vim distribution. For example, :set keymap=russian-jcukenwin In the latter case, you can switch between languages even if you do not have system Russian keyboard or independently from a system-wide keyboard settings. See 'keymap'. You can also map a key to switch between keyboards, if you choose the latter option. See |:map|. For your convenience, to avoid switching between keyboards, when you need to enter Normal mode command, you can also set 'langmap' option: :set langmap=ФИСВУАПРШОЛДЬТЩЗЙКЫЕГМЦЧНЯ;ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ, фисвуапршолдьтщзйкыегмцчня;abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz This is in utf-8, you cannot read this if your 'encoding' is not utf-8. You have to type this command in one line, it is wrapped for the sake of readability.
= 3. Localization *russian-l18n* If you wish to use messages, help files, menus and other items translated to Russian, you will need to install the RuVim Language Pack, available in different codepages from http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/ruvim/ Make sure that your Vim is at least 6.2.506 and use ruvim 0.5 or later for automatic installs. Vim also needs to be compiled with |+gettext| feature for user interface items translations to work. After downloading an archive from RuVim project, unpack it into your $VIMRUNTIME directory. We recommend using UTF-8 archive, if your version of Vim is compiled with |+multi_byte| feature enabled. In order to use the Russian documentation, make sure you have set the 'helplang' option to "ru".
= 4. Known issues *russian-issues* -- If you are using Russian message translations in Win32 console, then you may see the output produced by "vim --help", "vim --version" commands and Win32 console window title appearing in a wrong codepage. This problem is related to a bug in GNU gettext library and may be fixed in the future releases of gettext.

USD/JPY climbs to fresh six month highs above 109.60
by Eren Sengezer- 10-year US Treasury bond yield loses traction on Friday.
- Stock markets in US will close early due to Thanksgiving Day holiday.
- US Dollar Index pushes higher above 98.40 handle.
The USD/JPY pair is inching higher ahead of the American session on Friday supported by the broad-based USD strength. As of writing, the pair was trading at its highest level since late May at 109.61, adding 0.1% on a daily basis.
In the absence of significant macroeconomic drivers, the greenback preserved its strength and helped the pair gain traction. With the major European currencies such as the EUR and the GBP struggling to find demand, the US Dollar Index advanced to its highest level in more than two weeks at 98.45.
Market focus to remain on US-China trade dispute
In the meantime, the modest gains witnessed in European stocks on Friday point out to a positive market sentiment, which makes it difficult for the JPY to stay resilient against the USD. Although the 10-year US Treasury bond yield is posting modest losses on the day following a bullish opening gap, it remains on track to close the week in the positive territory.
The US bond markets and stock markets will close early on Friday and the pair is unlikely to fluctuate sharply in the remainder of the day. Meanwhile, investors will be paying close attention to fresh developments surrounding the US-China trade conflict after US President Trump signed the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act into bill earlier in the week to revive concerns over heightened political tensions hurting trade negotiations.

What values come to mind when I think of happiest, proudest, and most satisfying moments?
- intellectual status
- inner harmony
- close relationships
- self-reliance
- accomplishment
I would say that I try to live up to these values every day, with the most stress on self-reliance, close relationships, and accomplishment. I feel that intellectual status is just a happy benefit from accomplishing things successfully. And, inner harmony gets pushed aside from time to time in my pursuit for self-reliance and accomplishment. Close relationships give me an immense amount of satisfaction and the emotional benefits can be endless when a close relationship is successfully maintained. Knowing that I have a bond with someone is very fulfilling for me and lends a hand to my inner harmony.
The last topic that someone asked my advice on was actually about inner harmony. They were having issues with depression resulting from not being able to achieve something quickly. I told them that I am currently trying to break myself of the habit of equating my self-worth with my abilities and accomplishments. I've been told to repeat to myself: "I am of value by myself." The person was incredulous, saying, "What if you just think that that is BS? How can you break the habit if you don't believe what you hear?" I told them that it's important to identify why they might have that disbelief - where does that feeling come from. Once that is defined, they can begin to investigate those feelings and shake their old inner beliefs to let a new, more valid belief in.
I know that this is a bit off topic, but it's something that I've been working on recently and feel very strongly about. We create our own stumbling blocks and we are the only ones that keep ourselves from feeling self-worth.
When feeling stereotype threat, I think I can overcome it. Stereotype threat is just another old inner belief that needs to be shaken, so that you can stay focused on your true goals. By recognizing that my value is not in how I am perceived or my accomplishments, I can keep the anxiety that comes with those things at bay and be more confident and relaxed as I proceed. As I said before, we create our own stumbling blocks - and recognizing that can really free up your ability to shine.
I know that when I am at Dev Bootcamp, I may hit some walls (maybe even literally! jk) and I may become depressed. I know that I'm going to miss my current daily activities and the people in my life. My current support system won't be available. I think my value of self-reliance will help. I also know that there is a support system built-in to the DBC program - and we are already using it with our Accountability group and on the Google + community. By building relationships with others in my cohort and recognizing when I tend to create stumbling blocks for myself, I'll have the tools I need to stay focused. Eye on the prize!

Cannabis |
(plant material) |
Ever since I joined the military I encountered many people, that have done various drugs. I had only tried Cannabis, and told myself I would never try anything else. The drug that caught my attention the most was LSD. Many of my friends in the military had boasted about there trips, wild hallucinations, uncontrollable laughter, and a very strong mood lift. Naturally after hearing all these testimonials, I decided I had to experience this phenomenon.
It was 2am, and a friend that I will refer to as D, questioned me about trying some LSD with him. He had remained at my house while the rest of my roommates left to a nightclub. At first I was very hesitant, but I agreed. He pulled out a 3 mircoscopic paper tabs, 1 for myself and two for him. I was instructed to place the tab on my tongue for 1 hour. To pass the time we watched Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I could not concentrate on the movie. I was too busy waiting to feel the effects. As we lay on my bed, D asked me if one of my posters was moving. I looked up at my wall and suddenly it hit me like a train.
Uncontrollable laughter. I was laughing so hard a sharp pain began to develop in my ribs. I tried to calm myself down, but had no control overmyself. I burried my head in a pillow and lost control. After 5 minutes had passed, I was able to stop. I told D I had to use the restroom. I stood up on the bed and felt as if I was floating on thin air. As I made my way to the door, D warned me to be careful, in his exact words 'Be careful out there man, its a whole nother world'. I had no idea how right he was.
As I entered the bathroom I looked at myself in the mirror. My pupils had become dilated. I couldnt control my jaws, it was as if someone had streched them permanently into a smile. I remember feeling a sharp pain the back of my head, it was as if I could feel the drug entering my brain. I quickly went to the bathroom and thought how wierd it felt. I went back into my room and told D I wanted to explore. He agreed. We walked downstairs slowy, like two elderly gentlemen. Everything was increasing and decreasing in size. A vine like pattern appeared on the stairs carpet.
I had to hold the railing to walk down. Everytime I would look at D, it felt as if he was walking like the character Jack from the Nightmare Before Christmas. I mentioned to D that I felt very hot and my stomach was upsetting me. We made our way to the kitchen and drank about 6 cups of water each. D said it would make my body temperature remain steady. We sat down on the couch and began to discuss how our trip was going. That conversation ended quickly. I became distracted with everything around me. The walls were breathing, the window shades were creating strange shadows, my heart was beating extremely quick, and I saw trails of lights almost everywhere I looked. Yellow, White, and Red lights flew at me. I had a strong urge to go walking.
So we both decided to go walk to the park across the street. Outside everything was beautiful. The breeze felt refreshing against my skin. The stars shined with a spectacular glow. I glanced over at my car, and it felt as if it was growing in size. Before we made it off the driveway we both decided to smoke some Cannabis. We made our way back inside and smoked about 1 gram. We had 1 gram left and decided it was best to save it for when we were comming down.
We quickly made our way back to the outside world. The street lights lit up houses with an eary glow. Shadows moved all around us as we made our way to the park. We walked a few times around the park and talked the entire time. We laughed and bonded together. I had known D for about 2 months, but never had the opportunity to have a real conversation with him. When I had first met him, I thought all we had in common was a passion for playing guitar, but I learned alot about D this trip. We walked for about 20 minutes and made our way back inside. It had been about 3 hours since we had taken the tab.
As we made our way back to the house my roomates with some friends had arrived home. We explained to them we were tripping, and they asked us how everything was going. D and I made our way upstairs along with S. We decided to watch some Aquateen and that's when everything changed. D and S were laying on the bed watching the show. I decided to use my pc. I couldn't concentrate on anything. The monitor was shrinking and increasing in size. Words were unreadable, the brightness off the screen hurt my eyes, and I felt a little uneasy in my stomach. So I decided to lay down on the floor and watch the show.
Colors flew out of the tv at me. I was amazed by the display. I couldn't concentrate on what D and S were talking about, but when I finally could, it was to late. D was panicking about overdosing on the 2 tabs. He kept on saying he was going to die, and S was trying to calm him down, but her attempts were to no avail. I sat up and laughed, I couldn't help myself. I knew I shouldn't of been, but I couldn't help it. I grabbed my ipod and ran downstairs to the couch. I knew my laughter would not help the bad trip situation. I layed down and put on my Korn cd. Even though I was listening to my favorite band, I really didnt have much intrest in the song. I was to occupied staring at the tree outside my sliding glass door to the backyard.
It seemed as if the tree was getting closer to me. I felt as if the tree was preparing to attack me. I lay there on the couch laughing outloud at the thought of the tree attacking me. S walked downstairs and exited through the front door. I followed behind. When I made it outside, I could not find S. It was like she disappeared. I walked towards the park in search of her. The street lights glared at me, and in the darkness of the park, I saw shadows moving. There was a corn field across the street, and I thought to myself people were in there watching me. I freaked myself out so bad, I ran towards my house. As I made it to the driveway a voice whispered 'M do you want a hit'. I searched for the voice but couldn't find it. I thought to myself it was the LSD messing with my head.
Again I hear it, 'M do you want a hit'. I quickly turned to the direction I heard the voice from, and saw S and her friend K sitting in K's car. I sat in the car and smoked about another gram with S and K. D later walked outside and joined us in the car, but began to feel uncomfortable in the car. We were sitting in the back seat, and it was a little cramped. So he left and went back inside.
I lit up a cig, and began to play with it. I swirled it around in the air, I was amazed by the light trail it left behind. I exited the car and layed down on the hood of my car. I stared into the night sky and lost myself in the stars. I thought about my life, my friends, how well my experience was going. I was in a great state of mind, and life couldn't of been better. I smiled and grabbed hold of my dogtags. Staring up into the nightsky I bed farewell to all my fallen friends I lost overseas. I walked towards my door and noticed it felt like it grew 20 feet. I messed around with my keys until I found the proper one. I figided around with the lock for about 5 minutes until I got the door open. I walked inside and before shutting the door, I glanced outside once more. I took in a deep breath and smiled.
I made my way upstairs to find D and S laying in bed. He had overcome his bad trip and was watching the critic. I turned on the blacklight in my room and lost myself exploring my room. I kept telling D that the Al Capone poster was looking at me. He said he felt the same way. I stared at my lavalamp, and lost myself in it for awhile. I stared at the bubbles traveling up and down in a almost robotic pattern. I layed on the bed with D And S and we shut the movie off. D pulled out his laptop and played some soothing music.
During that time I thought alot about myself. Where I was going in life, what my plans for the future were, who I really was. I learned alot about myself. S left later on and D and I remained. We both agreed we had reached our peaks, and our trip was going down. We smoked the last of our Cannabis and stayed up talking about our trip for an hour. I later dropped him off at home, and returned to my house. I lay in bed trying to fall asleep, but I just couldnt. I remember before I took the tab I was almost asleep. Now I was wide awake.  I lost myself in my thoughts and drifted to sleep.
I will never forget this experience. I made a great friend and I learned many things about myself. This was truely a life changing experience.

what is this?
This is a gallery of experimental indie games I've either made or helped make. Most of these were developed during events known as "game jams", which usually take place over a weekend. Some (such as the
Ludum Dare games) I developed myself (including all of the assets such as music and graphics), while others I helped with as part of a team (as is the case for
GGJ games). In any case, they're all free to play, and their code is available if you're interested in finding out how they were made. Enjoy!

Scaling against a reference dataset with DIALS¶
This document provides a guide on how to scale a dataset against a reference dataset, referred to as the target dataset. The target dataset can be either a dataset scaled with dials.scale, or an mtz file containing a scaled dataset. Any number of datasets can be scaled against the reference dataset at once, giving the same scaling result as if each dataset were scaled as an independent job. The only difference is that all scaled datasets would be output in one scaled.pickle and scaled_experiments.json, which may be more or less convenient for further processing.
Scaling against a dials reference dataset¶
In this example, reference_reflections.pickle and reference_experiments.json are from a dataset that has already been scaled with dials.scale. To scale another dataset (datafiles integrated.pickle, integrated_experiments.json) against this target/reference, one should use the following command:
dials.scale only_target=True integrated.pickle integrated_experiments.json reference_reflections.pickle reference_experiments.json
This will scale the intensities of the dataset to agree as closely as possible
with the intensities of the reference dataset, and save the scaled dataset to
scaled.pickle, scaled_experiments.json (the reference files are unchanged).
The only_target=True
command is important, else all the data will be
scaled together and output in a joint output file.
Scaling against a reference mtz file¶
In this case, it is assumed that the intensity and variance columns of the mtz file have already been scaled. Targeted scaling would be run with the following command:
dials.scale integrated.pickle integrated_experiments.json target_mtz=scaled.mtz
The targeted scaling algorithm is the same regardless of the target datafile type, likewise the scaled dataset will be saved to scaled.pickle and scaled_experiments.json.
General considerations for suitable options¶
A common use case for scaling against a reference is to scale thin-wedge
datasets against a high quality full-sweep dataset. To give the best scaling, it
may be necessary to manually set the scaling model parameters: for more details
see the In-depth guide to scaling options in DIALS.
In the case of very thin wedge/stills datasets, or depending on the scientific question under investigation, it may be
suitable to set model=KB
, to give a single global scale and relative B-factor
to each dataset. However, if significant intensity variation/decay is present in each
measurement, it may be best to use model=physical
, setting absorption_term=False
and specifying values for scale_interval
and decay_interval
.

Wellington GDP growth above national average, unemployment drops
News from WCC
Wellington Mayor Andy Foster has welcomed figures showing tourism has helped fuel the capital’s economy and boosted the city’s GDP above the national average.
The Infometrics Quarterly Economic Monitor was released today, with the Wellington City Retail Sales Report, both for the year to the end of September.
“It’s heartening to see the latest figures,” Mayor Foster says. “Tourist numbers are increasing and they are spending nearly $2 billion a year in the city.
“Our GDP growth is above the national average, and the unemployment rate has dropped from 4.3 percent to 3.5 percent.
“Wellington City Council is also approving an increasing value of building work – the rate of growth in that area is exceeding the national average.”
Councillor Diane Calvert, who holds the Economic Development Portfolio, says the figures show good news for hospitality businesses and retailers.
Wellington city merchants recorded electronic card retail spend of $3.22 billion in the year to September 2019, up by 3.7 percent.
This was driven largely by more people eating out and an increase in spending in the automotive category, like fuel, repairs and maintenance.
“Hospitality recorded the largest increase, of $49.8m, and seven out of the eight merchant categories had higher levels of sales,” Cr Calvert says.
The figures also show a 28 percent increase in the value of the cruise ship trade. Cruise ships will make more than 120 visits to Wellington this season.
Quarterly Economic Monitor figures:
• Tourism spending was up 8.1 percent to $1,961 million in the year to Sept 2019; this compares to 6.8 percent in the region and 3.1 percent nationally.
• Guest nights increased by 3.3 percent in the year to Sept 2019; this compares to 3.2 percent in the region and 1.2 percent nationally.
• GDP growth was 2.7 percent for the year to Sept 2019 compared to a year earlier. This compares to GDP growth of 2.4 percent in the region and 2.4 percent nationally.
• The unemployment rate was 3.5 percent, down from 4.3 percent a year earlier; this continues its downward trend since it peaked in 2010.
• The number of residential consents increased by 13.2 percent over the year to Sept 2019; this compares to 11.3 percent in the region and 12.7 percent nationally.
• The value of non-residential consents issued during the year to Sept 2019 totalled $354m.
Wellington City Retail Sales Summary:
• Spend at Wellington city merchants was up 3.7 percent in the year to Sept 2019.
• Spend by Wellington residents was up 3.0 percent in the year to Sept 2019.
• Quarter spotlight on the cruise ship trade indicates a 28 percent growth to $59m in the 2018/19 year.

The world is split on the benefits of AI and the Dangers of AI.
but the main theory in a way that is going around the world is called the Existential Risk
Existential risk from artificial general intelligence is the hypothesis that substantial progress in artificial general intelligence (AGI) could someday result in human extinction or some other unrecoverable global catastrophe.
It is argued that the human species currently dominates other species because the human brain has some distinctive capabilities that other animals lack.
If AI surpasses humanity in general intelligence and becomes "superintelligent", then this new superintelligence could become powerful and difficult to control.
Just as the fate of the mountain gorilla depends on human goodwill, so might the fate of humanity depend on the actions of a future machine superintelligence.
The likelihood of this type of scenario is widely debated, and hinges in part on differing scenarios for future progress in computer science.
Once the exclusive domain of science fiction,
concerns about superintelligence started to become mainstream in the 2010s,
and were popularized by public figures such as Stephen Hawking, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk.

The above qoute explains the iminant danger to life from AI not because it Hates humans but because it has a job to do.
This will happen once we get to superintelligence level because AI cannot be taught to love. if that happens then humanity can avoid this situation but in reality it is impossible to do,
The reason for that being that humans dont know how our brain work in the first place. so it is impossible to replicate that.
This video shows the reasons that AI may be dangerous.
This chart shows the fear that developers of the algorithms have regarding AI.
where the singularity and independent decision making are the worst of there fears,
because if AI becomes a singularity in other words smarter then us then the consequences will be catastrophic.
The reason being that as long as it is less intelligent then we are we can tackle with it but if it overtakes us in intelligence then
it becomes somewhat impossible to do so as if we take the chimpanzee as an example we humans can take down the chimpanzee but the chimpanzee cannot do that as easily as we can anicipate its next move very early.
Independent decision making is second on the list as if algorithms make independent decisions it takes out the ability to control from humans,
And creates unlimited possiblities for the decision that the algorithm makes.
therefore going towards a singularity.
third is the definition of fairness in our society, Fairness is something that we humans use to define the good or the bad.
if an AI takes it upon itself to define fairness it causes problems because it can define fairness to its own benefit or rather understanding and therefore if it considers something dangerous it may mark it bad,
where that thing may be beneficial to humans.
the last thing on the list is automation of jobs, Now this is up to debate but generally it is considered that the much simple hand work like car manufacture and cloth manufacture is taken from the humans with narrow AI.
we may therefore lose all of our jobs to general intelligence.
in some cases it is tru but in others it is false.
e.g.
the welding in a car factory is done by AI but in order to keep everything move smootly technician are needed to look after the machines.
