I was born in Guangzhou (formerly Canton), a harbour city in southern China. My family has a long history of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and for three generation had practice professionally. Growing up in this environment had a profound influence on me. I began learning the practice at age 14. For several years, I was taught by my father at his clinic. At age 18, I left to attend Guangzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine, one of the most prestigious medical colleges in China. Here I stayed for five years, until graduating. During that time period I had the opportunity to study up close and extensively with some of the finest specialist from various styles of Chinese Medicine. Combining the education I received from my family with the training and experiences of medical college, I was ready to practice on my own.
I came to the United States in 1983, initially staying in Vermont under a student exchange. Although I enjoyed my time there, I did not find the weather there especially appealing, so I moved to Atlanta in 1987. I eventually established a Chinese Medical Clinic in Chamblee (north Atlanta) in 1994. Soon after, I was able to set up a second office in Doraville.
Generally, people come to my clinic for chronic problems that have been unresolved for several years by Western medicine. They search for an alternative solution. They also come for acute conditions and general health concerns that Traditional Chinese Medicine is well-equipped and designed to diagnose. Usually, there is an initial consultation using the five diagnostics referred to on the herbal medicine page. After which an individualized prescription will be given. Traditional Chinese Medicine is holistic and integrated. My aim is to cure the whole person and re-establish balance. As you continue throughout my website, I hope that it to be an informative and enjoyable experience. Remember that I am always available for any questions or concerns you may have.

class EvalParallel2(object):
A class and context manager for parallel evaluations.
This class is based on the Pool class of the multiprocessing
module.
The interface in v2 changed, such that the fitness function can be
given once in the constructor. Hence the number of processes has
become the second (optional) argument of __init__
and the function
has become the second and optional argument of __call__
.
To be used with the with
statement (otherwise terminate
needs to
be called to free resources):
with EvalParallel2(fitness_function) as eval_all: fvals = eval_all(solutions)
assigns a callable EvalParallel2
class instance to eval_all.
The instance can be called with a list
(or tuple
or any
sequence) of solutions and returns their fitness values. That is:
eval_all(solutions) == [fitness_function(x) for x in solutions]
EvalParallel2.__call__
may take three additional optional arguments,
namely fitness_function
(like this the function may change from call
to call), args
passed to fitness and timeout
passed to the
multiprocessing.pool.ApplyResult.get
method which raises
multiprocessing.TimeoutError
in case.
eval_all = EvalParallel2(fitness_function, 0) bypasses
multiprocessing
, hence the construct can be used even when
multiprocessing
fails on this fitness_function
instantiation.
Examples:
>>> from cma.optimization_tools import EvalParallel2 >>> for n_jobs in [None, -1, 0, 1, 2, 4]: ... with EvalParallel2(cma.fitness_functions.elli, n_jobs) as eval_all: ... res = eval_all([[1,2], [3,4]]) >>> # class usage, don't forget to call terminate >>> ep = EvalParallel2(cma.fitness_functions.elli, 4) >>> ep([[1,2], [3,4], [4, 5]]) # doctest:+ELLIPSIS [4000000.944... >>> ep.terminate() ... >>> # use with `with` statement (context manager) >>> es = cma.CMAEvolutionStrategy(3 * [1], 1, dict(verbose=-9)) >>> with EvalParallel2(cma.fitness_functions.elli, ... number_of_processes=12) as eval_all: ... while not es.stop(): ... X = es.ask() ... es.tell(X, eval_all(X, args=(1e1,))) # `eval_all` also accepts ... # `fitness_function` as ... # (optional) keyword argument >>> assert es.result[1] < 1e-13 and es.result[2] < 1500
Parameters: the EvalParallel2
constructor takes the number of
processes as optional input argument, which is by default
multiprocessing.cpu_count(). If number_of_processes <= 0, no
multiprocessing
is invoked and the fitness is computed directly in a
regular loop.
Limitations: the multiprocessing
module, on which this class is based
upon, may not work with certain class instance methods or Cython
instances, or class instances that contain modules as it uses pickle
.
Details: in some cases the execution may be considerably slowed down, as for example in previous tests done with test suites from coco/bbob.
Comparing setting number_of_processes = 0 with number_of_processes = 1 evaluates the overhead introduced by multiprocessing.Pool.apply_async.
| Method | __call__ |

args
must be a tuple and is passed to fitness_function
like
fitness_function(solutions[0], *args). For example, a single
argument, say a1
, should be passed like args=(a1, ).
Raises multiprocessing.TimeoutError
if timeout
is given and
exceeded.

The Giant monster was flung away and violently rolled on the ground, before bouncing back up again with a spring-like movement that didn’t really suit its large frame
“Gururuk . ”.
The Giant monster didn’t immediately counterattack, instead opting to bare its fangs as it remained prone on the ground . Meanwhile, the giant Naga responsible for flinging it away stood before the growling monster
It was none other than ‘Jima’, previously the boss-level monster of the Naga species that were inducted into the Shadow Army not too long ago
Jima reached his right hand out next to him . When he did, a black spear slowly rose up from the shadow on the ground
Grab!.
Jima powerfully grasped the spear and aimed the weapon at his front . One could sense his unbreakable will to not let anything pass by him
“Uh… . ? Uh… ??”.
The young soldier from the JSDF couldn’t quite figure out whether the spectacle unfolding before his eyes was a dream or reality
To think, a monster was protecting him from another monster right now
He thought he’d end up inside the Giant monster’s mouth for sure . But, having taken a look at the wide, imposing back of the other monster, he felt several powerful emotions welling up from deep within his heart
“Just what is going on here…”.
Could they survive?.
Could they survive against the Giant monster?.
Not just the young soldier, but the old couple and the patients, too?.
The soldier’s thoughts reached this point, and suddenly, all the built-up tension left him and tears rushed up to his eyes
“Use this . ”.
Someone pushed forward a colourful handkerchief towards the young soldier . He turned his head to the side to take a look
A youth who looked to be way younger than the soldier pointed at the handkerchief with his chin and nodded his head afterwards
Since this youth didn’t speak in Japanese, the soldier didn’t understand him, but it wasn’t all that hard to figure out what he wanted to say in the first place
‘Is he Korean?’.
The young soldier wiped the streaming tears away with the offered handkerchief and asked his questions
“By the way… . just who are you? Wait, why are you even here?”.
The Korean youth silently shook his head before raising his thumb up high
“Good . ”.
“Excuse me?”.
“Very Good . ”.
“T-thank… . you, I guess?”.
While the young soldier dazedly expressed his gratitude, another man who seemed to be the comrade of this Korean youth appeared from behind him
Even though this soldier didn’t know a whole lot about Hunters, he saw all the blood splatters on this man’s clothing and realised that he was now looking at a powerful being who existed on another realm altogether from everyone else
“This might get dangerous . ”.
Jin-Woo had taken a look inside the rural clinic before showing up here, and he told Yu Jin-Ho while pointing behind him
“Looks like we’ll have change locations . We’re too close . ”.
Yu Jin-Ho had witnessed the battle against the Giants a few times by now so he figured out what Jin-Woo was saying almost immediately
“I’ll be on standby over here, hyung-nim . ”.
“Right . ”.
Jin-Woo looked at the young soldier next and saw his scared eyes
He walked past the soldier and lightly patted the scared, tearful Japanese man on the shoulder . The gesture meant to say that the soldier had done excellent work
What he did, standing off against a monster all by himself with just a single rifle, was not something any regular person could even try to imitate
Jin-Woo had entered many dungeons as a rank E himself so he knew better than anyone just how courageous this soldier had been
The young JSDF soldier looked at the back of Jin-Woo walking by and let out a gasp of admiration
“Ah . ”.
That weightiness brushing past his shoulder, and that warmth from his hand . Just a single touch, and the terror he felt forcing him to get ready for his demise completely washed away
A powerful sense of relief rushed out from the deepest part of his heart
It was then, the young soldier recalled the story of two Koreans roaming around in his country while subjugating the Giants
He recalled the name of one of the two . The name of the Hunter who also subjugated rank S monsters almost all by himself in South Korea, was… .
‘Seong Jin-Woo… . Hunter Seong Jin-Woo… . ’.
It had to be . That man had to be him
Ba-dump!.
The soldier’s heart began pounding hard after running into a person he only heard about in passing . He quickly questioned the Korean youth still standing next to him
“Is he that person? The rank S Hunter from South Korea??”.
Yu Jin-Ho nodded his head and provided his answer
“Good . ”.
Meanwhile, Jin-Woo walked over to where the two monsters were in a violent melee . His forehead was creasing up
“Kiiaaaahhk-!!”.
The Giant dug deep into Jima’s front in the blink of an eye and proceeded to powerfully rip into the Naga’s shoulder
He used to be a boss-level monster of a rank A dungeon . Even if his attention had been diverted a bit in order to protect the humans behind him, he should still be a much more powerful being than other, regular Shadow Soldiers
To think, he was being suppressed by a regular monster that wasn’t even on the same ‘boss-level’ as he used to be . This situation easily demonstrated how strong these Giant-type monsters were
Besides all that, Jin-Woo never enjoyed the sight of his soldiers getting beaten down like this at all . His expression hardened as he bent his knees . An unbelievable amount of strength filled up his thighs and shins
Crack, crack…
The asphalt below that was supporting his legs began splitting as cracks ran underneath his feet
Ka-boom!.
Jin-Woo exploded up from the ground and shot right towards the Giant’s face in an instant . In that short moment, the monster’s darting eyes discovered him flying straight at it
A glint of understanding filled the flying human’s eyes
‘As I thought, these guys aren’t your average monsters at all . ’.
Jin-Woo’s fist slammed into the forehead of the Giant . However, the damage dealt was less than he had expected . The monster pulled its head back just before the hit landed to minimise the impact as much as it could, that was why
The monster possessed a massive frame, as well as surprisingly agile movements . From the perspectives of the Hunters who had to face off against these b*stards, those two aspects alone would have been enough to give them a sense of helplessness
The thing was, though, that only applied to regular Hunters
Jin-Woo immediately summoned a ‘Demon King’s Shortsword’ in the air . And then, he extended his other free hand not holding anything towards the Giant’s face
‘Ruler’s Authority!’.
An invisible hand yanked at the Giant’s face with irresistible force . The distance between Jin-Woo and the monster rapidly closed up
“Kureuk??”.
The monster didn’t expect the airborne opponent to immediately start attacking again, and it began thrashing about in a panicked frenzy, but in the end, it was all for naught
Jin-Woo flew in front of the Giant’s nose in an instant and activated his skill
“Violent Slash . ”.
Dududududududu!!.
Rapid-fire attacks so fast that they left behind a series of afterimages turned the Giant’s face into a complete mess
“Kuwaaaak!!”.
Boom!!.
The monster covered its face and rolled around on the ground . It lost its eyesight from that attack and wildly thrashed about in unbridled pain
Tap
After lightly landing back on the ground, Jin-Woo looked on and sensed that this hunt was drawing to a close
‘It’s done . ’.
But then, the Giant sensed Jin-Woo’s approach; its shoulders flinched greatly before it began running away in haste, without even bothering to look behind it
‘It can also sense the presence of others?’.
The more Jin-Woo fought these things, the more surprised he got
He was speaking from his observations, and it said that these Giant-type monsters were like specialised weapon systems that happened to possess large biological bodies
The Giant quickly distanced itself . Of course, he wasn’t planning on letting it go
‘Quicksilver . ’.
Jin-Woo’s frame slid forward like a bolt of lightning
The Giant monster ran with all its might on all fours, but rather than the distance increasing, it rapidly shrank, instead
The monster felt terror . It sensed a bone-chilling aura emanating right behind its back
The Giant creature belatedly realised that it could never escape no matter how much it struggled . So, it came to an abrupt stop, spun around, and tried to pounce on its enemy, but….
‘……??’.
The presence of the human that had been closing in at a scary velocity suddenly vanished . And then…
‘… . !!’.
The presence reappeared behind the creature
Even though its eyes were not working anymore, the Giant reflexively turned its head around
That made it easier for him to slice up the monster, however
Jin-Woo jumped up straight and powerfully swung down the ‘Demon King’s Shortsword’
Swish-!!.
The blade overflowing with the magical energy oozing out from the ‘Black Heart’ vertically split the face of the Giant monster in one slice
Slice!.
“Gu-urk… . ”.
Like a tree that got hacked by an axe, the monster slowly tipped over backwards, not even able to scream out properly
THUD!!.
With that, the third Giant was successfully hunted down
Jin-Woo cleanly landed back on the ground and let out a light sigh filled with lingering emotions of victory from his lips
“Fuu…”.
“Hyung-nim!!”.
Yu Jin-Ho had been standing far, far back while waiting for the battle to finish . Once it was safe, he hurriedly ran over and presented the lid of the thermos containing refreshingly cool tea
Jin-Woo grinned brightly and accepted the lid
“Thank you . ”.
The tea in the lid slid down his throat while issuing the familiar gulping noises
‘Mm?’.
He sensed a presence and looked behind him, only to find Jima and his slumped shoulders approaching him . The Shadow Soldier was evidently depressed from losing the one on one fight earlier
‘You fought well, regardless . Get some rest . ’.
Jin-Woo encouraged his underling and had it return . Jima returned to being a shadow and got absorbed back below Jin-Woo’s feet
Yu Jin-Ho stared at that process before raising his voice
“Hyung-nim?”.
Jin-Woo returned the empty lid and replied
“Yeah?”.

Yu Jin-Ho was feeling puzzled by this
Just now, hyung-nim was almost solely responsible for killing this Giant . It seemed as if he didn’t really need the Naga’s help at all
Even then, he always sent out the Naga first, in the beginning of the battle, and only participated after his summon was pushed to its backfoot
Yu Jin-Ho was curious as to what Jin-Woo’s aim could be . The actual reason was simple enough, though
‘Because, I just wanted to level these guys up, you know . ’.
The Naga Shadow Soldiers had become a part of the Shadow Army relatively recently, and as a result, their levels fell quite behind that of his other soldiers
That was why he figured that, since he would be fighting these Giants anyway, he’d raise the levels of the Nagas in the process as well . However, as it turned out, these Giant-type monsters weren’t easy enough opponents for his new recruits to deal with by themselves
Although it was a bit tedious, this method was still the best one if he wanted to increase the Nagas’ battle experience
‘Of course, I can’t really tell Yu Jin-Ho any of this, now can I?’.
Jin-Woo formed a smirk
“Well, I feel like I’m still not too familiar with these Nagas, you see? If I keep them around me for a little longer, wouldn’t I become friendlier with them?”.
“Oh . ”.
Yu Jin-Ho nodded his head
What an easy kid to lie to, this guy – thought Jin-Woo
But then, Yu Jin-Ho suddenly fell into deep contemplation, before raising his voice as his eyes sparkled brightly
“You even make sure to look after every single one of your summons, hyung-nim . As expected of you!”.
‘…… ’.
And also, Jin-Woo felt really bad for lying to him, as well
“Excuse me… . ”.
Jin-Woo’s head shifted to his side
The young soldier who courageously stood up against the Giant was walking closer while continuously glancing at the dead monster’s mountainous corpse . Jin-Woo could also see the old couple responsible for protecting the hospital behind the soldier’s shoulder, too
He hadn’t spoken to them yet, but he could already tell what they wanted to say simply from their expressions alone
That was all he needed
For now, he didn’t have enough time to receive their gratitude one at a time . Even as he stood around here, these Giants were busy going on a rampage in other locations
Jin-Woo took a long look at the Giant’s corpse
The biggest reason why he came to Japan was lying on the ground right in front of his face
“Stop! Stop!!”.
Yu Jin-Ho quickly stopped the Japanese survivors from approaching the location
Jin-Woo had been feeling it lately, but well, Yu Jin-Ho’s wits seemed to have quickened up considerably since their first meeting . Thanks to that, the job of extracting shadows had become that much easier
He smirked and looked at Yu Jin-Ho for a bit, before shifting his gaze back to the dead Giant
He extended his hands out and quietly murmured to himself
“Rise up . ”.
***.
“Dear viewers at home… . It’s hard to believe, but the scene before me is truly happening!”.
Tatatatatatata-!!.
The reporter riding on the helicopter continuously spat out gasps of astonishment as if he could hardly believe his own eyes
The camera began transmitting the scenes below . Several hundreds of ant monsters were uniformly marching towards a certain direction . And in front of them, there was a mutated ant monster with wings on its back
Of course, it was none other than ‘Beru’
He had been advancing up ahead of the marching ant army, but he abruptly raised his head high up in the air
“Kiiiiieeehk-!!”.
The loud explosion of his screech prompted the reporter to hurriedly cover his ears . Meanwhile, the ants marching behind all came to a stop right when they heard Beru’s call
There were three Giants to their front
The differences in size were like looking at an elephant and a mouse
However, Beru displayed not one hint of fear as his claws extended out like lengthy blades, and he dashed forward
“Kiiieeehhhck!!”.
 Oh my GOD!!”.
As the reporter cried out in sheer astonishment over and over again, the ants successfully brought the Giants down . They then began chomping down with their sharp mandibles and ate the corpses
Wooduduk!!.
Kwajeeck!!.
Of course, under Beru’s orders, they didn’t forget to leave some part of the monsters behind so more Shadow Soldiers could be created later . As for those ants that got too greedy for their own good, swift kicks from Beru flew in to sort out the situation immediately
The reporter was shouting out in a clearly-excited voice now
“The Giants are being devoured right now!! These Giants are being devoured by the insects right now!!!!”.
These Giants that instilled unbridled shock and fear with the actions of devouring humans were in turn, getting devoured by the ants . The Japanese people watching this scene felt a certain sense of inexplicable gratification
That was perhaps the reason why the most amount of interest was focused on the ant army, since Jin-Woo himself refused to be filmed from the get-go
The only problem being…
“Heok!!”.
The reporter and the cameraman flinched in surprise and hurriedly backed away after spotting Beru flying right next to the helicopter
The former ant king didn’t even hesitate and snatched away the camera pointing at him and destroyed it immediately
Kwajeeck!!.
“Keok!”.
The reporter and the cameraman embraced each other and shuddered pitifully in fear
“… ”.
Beru alternated his quiet gaze between the two trembling humans before returning back to the ground below
“Whew… . ”.
“Pant, pant… . ”.
Both men spat out sighs of relief right away
There was a reason why they followed around the monster ant army even as the cameras worth tens of thousands of dollars were being lost every single time . The countless viewers were going absolutely crazy with ardent fervour for these creatures, that was why
The cameraman quickly picked up the spare camera prepared for this eventuality, while the reporter spoke the closing words to the mic as if he was already used to this whole situation
“… . I’m Kitamura, reporting from the location . ”.
***.
“Kkyaaahk!”.
She must’ve graduated from elementary school not too long ago . This young girl was running away screaming with a tear-strewn face
“Ah, ah ah!!”.
Right behind her, a Giant gave chase with a disgusting smile on its face
How far could she go when running on her still-short legs? The distance between them closed up in an instant
The Giant must’ve found this game of tag with a certain winner set in stone rather amusing to play, because it continued to form a toothy grin
It reached out with its arm that was at least 1 . 5 times longer than other Giant’s .
“Guwaaaaahahk!!”.
The Giant shot up to its feet and screamed out in pain as it held its wrist
The owner of the blue-coloured blade was none other than ‘Igrit’
He spun around and lifted up the pale-faced girl that was on her knees shivering, before quickly evacuating from that place
The Giant angrily glared below . The creature that had cleanly severed its wrist was busy escaping with its prey
The eyes of the enraged Giant were quickly dyed in red
“Gureuk… . ”.
The scene was scary enough for any observers to wet their pants . But even then, someone still stood before such a terrifying monster . It was, of course, ‘Iron’ . His armour had become even more enhanced after his grade rose up to ‘Elite Knight’
Iron stabbed the shield down on the ground and stood proudly with his chest wide open . And then, a truly loud roar exploded out from beneath his helm
Wooooowuuuuuhhh-!!.
[Iron has activated ‘Skill: Roar of Provocation’ . ].
[The enemy has fallen into a provoked state . ].
The glare of the Giant previously aimed at Igrit was instantly switched over to Iron
As if to say ‘Come if you dare’, Iron pounded on his chest vigorously and raised up high the shield as huge as himself
“Guwuuurk!”.
The fist of the enraged Giant mercilessly punched down on Iron
Ka-boom!.
However, Iron was not forced back an inch . The effects of his grade rising up had pushed him to a whole new plateau of power
Boom! Slam! Bam!.
Iron ably defended against dozens of punches and loudly cried out again
“Wuuoouuhh!!”.
When he did, the army of Shadow Soldiers and Ice Bears, the ones that had been with Jin-Woo the longest, attacked at the same time from either side of the Giant
The leader of the Ice Bear troops, Tank, shook its head around and roared out loudly as if he got excited by the prospect of entering the battlefield after a long time of inactivity
“Krrroooarr!!”.
His roar was so loud and explosive that even those far away could feel the faint tremor in the air
The reporter watching this scene unfold from afar with bated breath shouted at the camera next to him
“Can you see this, everyone? These summons, these creatures summoned by Hunter Seong Jin-Woo, are raiding the Giant by themselves!”.
Could this truly be reality?.
This very reporter didn’t believe Yuri Orlov’s claims from the word go, and quite obviously, he also didn’t hold much hope with Jin-Woo, as well
But then, not just Seong Jin-Woo himself, but even the summoned creatures he ordered to go out on their own were speedily hunting down these Giants, as if they were nothing
Maybe, just maybe…
When the reporter thought that, just maybe, Seong Jin-Woo could possibly save this country all by himself, something warm and powerful gushed up from the deepest part of his chest
It was precisely then
“L-look! Over there!”.
The cameraman pointed at the Giant . The reporter hurriedly shifted his tear-soaked gaze in the general direction of the monster
“How could this be… !!”.
The reporter spat out a moan
The Giant’s posture was already crumbling . Countless screaming bolts of lightning, shooting out from the tip of Igrit’s sword, were pounding down on the faltering monster’s head
It was such a mesmerizingly beautiful sight that all those who looked upon it forgot what they wanted to say next

I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER by DeWyNGaLe * * * *
I Know What You Did Last Summer was a mystery written by Lois Duncan in the seventies. It was about four kids who hit a boy in the middle of the street and now someone knows and comes to make sure they have paid for what they have done. The movie adaption is pretty much the same, only it is a grown man in the middle of the street and the plot is a little more complicated. They are spoilers though, so I won't reveal them.
Helen Shivers (Sarah Michelle Gellar) is competing for the beauty pageant at the 4th of July parade in Southport, South Carolina. Her friends, Julie James (Jennifer Love Hewitt), Ray Bronson (Freddie Prinze Jr.), and Barry Cox (Ryan Phillippe). She wins, of course, and then the four of them go to celebrate on Dawson's Beach. On the way back, Ray runs into something. The four of them get out of the car and look down the road, revealing a dead body. They take him to a fishing place, where they can put his body in the water and no one will find out about what happened that summer. They make a pact to never tell anyone what went on that year. No one every did, either. Then how come someone knows?
In the past year, Julie James's life has been terrible. She feels awful for what she has done and doesn't want to tell anyone, in fear. Her grades have slipped, her relationship with her mother has vanished, and she is losing friends. One year after the incident on the road, she gets a letter. In bold black print it reads Julie James, followed by her address.  Julie is terrified. They were so careful, weren't they? Who could know?
She takes the letter to Ray, Helen, and Barry to show them what has gone on. Now, the terror is happening to all four of them. Barry gets run over. Julie gets a body in a truck.  Ray gets another letter. Pretty freaky, huh? Now, they are seeing the killer. He wears a fisherman's coat, with a hat so you cannot see his/her face. They go to David Egan's (the man they ran over) house in hopes they could find out some information. All they find is the suspicious Missy Egan. (played terrifically by Anne Heche) They suspect it is someone named Billy Blue, a man that Missy named stopped by the house shortly after David died. After some more twists and sightings, the climax comes when the fisherman is ready to kill all four of them with his long, sharp fishing hook.
I Know What You Did Last Summer was written by Kevin Williamson, and if it weren't for him, this movie probably wouldn't have been as good. Jennifer Love Hewitt proves herself to be a good actress, as well as the rest of the cast. Sarah Michelle Gellar shows us she can do more than be a mean daughter on a soap opera. Ryan Phillippe shows us that he can act great. Overall, the movie is wonderful, although a few elements are difficult to understand. This movie and the second Scream are sitting on top of the world. For now, anyway. Perhaps another great movie will come and bump this one off. But, considering how eerie and scary it is, it is almost impossible.

According to The Ecological Society of America, Ecology is defined as: "The study of the relationships between living organisms, including humans, and their physical environment; it seeks to understand the vital connections between plants and animals and the world around them. Ecology also provides information about the benefits of ecosystems and how we can use Earth’s resources in ways that leave the environment healthy for future generations." While Statistics come to be "the science of collecting, displaying, and analysing data" according to Oxford Reference. Thus, this website aims to list solutions and show data that raise awareness about how Peruvians are influencing our environment, how we impact its resources and how we influence climate change, based on open data.

I started learning Python until recent months (pandemic-given time). I gotta say it’s been fun and very interesting, considering my background in C language. One of the best ways to understand technology (or so I’ve been told) is by projects-based learning. So this is my first take with Python and REST APIs.
I saw a nice project video in The Come Up YouTube channel. The idea is simple: Over time, you hit Like on many YouTube music videos, so after running a Python script, you’d be able to automatically create a Spotify playlist containing all the liked songs from YouTube. Below is the original project video. It also contains links to the original GitHub project.
The project was very appealing to me since it covers web APIs, a subject I knew nothing about, yet it is one of the most basic building blocks of web applications.
I decided to make my own version. The codebase is completely new, although both projects use the same libraries (or Python modules). So the idea is for you to go watch the video, understand what’s going on, and then come here to understand what are the tweaks and additions I’ve made. Some of these are:
Using SQLite Databases: SQL-based databases are a whole world in themselves, but I wanted to implement some basic database functionality. The database contains information about the YouTube “liked” playlist contents, the extracted video Artists and Tracks, and the Spotify IDs for each track. All the database manipulation is performed using the SQLite python module.
Spotify OAuth2.0 Authentication: The TheComeUp project doesn’t implement OAuth2.0 authorization, but it uses a manual process (using the Spotify Developer’s Console) to grant access to a user account, where a valid OAuth token is generated. My project includes the required “Authorization Code Flow” for this step to be automated.
Improved YouTube Data API implementation: Both projects use the same library for interaction with YouTube, but mine makes use of some extra API parameters that allow for more flexibility when requesting data, while saving on network traffic (after all, the YouTube Data API is NOT free). More specifically: no unused information is retrieved from YouTube, and the user can select the number of liked videos to download and sync (user can even download the whole “liked” history, which in my case is more than 800 videos).
Execution switches: This just means that the user chooses whether to skip or execute certain steps. This greatly helps when debugging and also when testing different sections of the program.
Support for subsequent script executions: When executing the script once, you’d expect to sync YouTube and Spotify playlists. When executing the script twice (or some time in the future) you’d expect the previous data not to be overwritten or downloaded again, but only to apply the new changes made between script executions. This project handles that.
Error Handling: I’ve tried to handle most of the API-related formatting or data errors, by printing descriptive messages of the reasons the script might have failed. This is not the focus of the project, but certainly it is a good addition.
Below is a general program flow. The script is executed on a command line application, and the user input is also read from the command line.
The script opens a new browser window and the user is redirected to the Google OAuth authentication page. The user needs to grant access to the application (the script) so that it can read user data. Since this application is not verified by Google, it flags it as a safety risk. Nevertheless, the user can click on “Advanced” -> “Go to Playlist(unsafe)”.
Then, the user is asked whether to grant permissions to view the YouTube account. Upon allowance, the browser window can now be closed, and program execution continues in the command line. Depending on the amount of videos to be retrieved, the application performs multiple requests to the API until receiving all the videos’ info (each response includes 50 videos maximum). In this case, 883 results were retrieved.
Each JSON-formatted response is individually saved in a temporary file with .json extention
Database object is immediately created (if non-existent) and initialized with three tables:
Each temporary JSON file is read and the videos are stored in the database in the table called “videos”. These videos include music and non-music videos, that will later be filtered. Individual videos extracted from the JSON files are displayed in the console with its YouTube ID. Whenever a video is already stored in the database, it shows the “Already Exists” message.
The YouTube video ID is used to search through the YoutubeDL API, to extract the video artist and track name. If no artist nor track are found, the video is assumed not to be a song. Otherwise, the artist and song names are stored in the database tables “artist” and “tracks” respectively, and linked to the respective video in the “video” table using primary and foreing keys (in database jargon).
In this step, messages from the API as well as from the script are printed in console.
Here, connection with the Spotify API is performed. Just as Google requested permissions for the application, in this step the user is redirected to a Spotify OAuth Authentication page, where user grants access for the application to read and write playlists. The API is used to search in the Spotify catalog and retrieve Spotify IDs as results of the query for each individual song. These IDs are also stored in the database.
Some songs may not be found, just because the artist or song strings found with YoutubeDL do not match. This is one of the drawbacks of this approach.
All user playlists are downloaded and the script looks for the existence of a playlist named “Youtube Liked Vids”. If it exists, all the songs that were found to have a valid Spotify ID are now added to that playlist. If it doesn’t, the script creates it using the API, and adds all songs to the newly created playlist.
You can imagine that many YouTube videos have odd names, special characters or strange symbols and emojis, thus, the weakest part of the whole chain is the YoutubeDL search engine. In fact, mistakes do happen: either it gives wrong song names and artists, or it does not find song name nor artist for a given video. It all depends on how well formatted the video title is (and how the YoutubeDL algorithm works, which I have not stopped to evaluate).
So the sad story is that these errors are to be fixed manually by deleting songs or adding missing ones. But hey! I just have to do it for a few of them, not for hundreds!. Besides, when running the script again in the future, the errors fixed are not lost. Data is not overwritten (unless the user deletes the database file).
For Python, I went through all the Python For Everybody series. It’s free, it’s all in YouTube, it makes part of a Coursera specialization.
Here’s the Youtube Data API documentation.
Here’s the Spotify API documentation
For OAuth2.0 Authentication with Spotify, I took the Spotipy Python module as a reference.
This project is hosted on GitHub under MIT License.
Finally, thanks to The Come Up channel. It was great to find this project.

The Companies House API requires authentication credentials to be sent with each request. In most cases this can be sent as an API or stream key for streaming API connections.
The Companies House API uses HTTP basic access authentication to send an API key or stream key between the client application and the server.
Basic authentication usually consists of a username and password. The Companies House API takes the username as the API or stream key and ignores the password, so it can be left blank.
For an API key of my_api_key
, the following curl request demonstrates the
setting of the Authorization
HTTP request header, as defined by RFC2617:
curl -XGET -u my_api_key: https://api.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/00000006
GET /company/00000006 HTTP/1.1
Host: api.company-information.service.gov.uk
Authorization: Basic bXlfYXBpX2tleTo=
Interaction with some Companies House API functionality requires OAuth 2.0 authorisation. In web server apps, interaction with the Companies House API requires end-user involvement for authentication to prove their identity before the API will allow access. The Companies House API uses HTTP bearer access authentication to send an access token between the client application and the server.
In a web server process flow, there must be end user involvement. The process flow is as follows:
client_id
and a
client_secret
which must be stored securely by the developer.client_id
and client_secret
combination for interactions with the Companies House OAuth 2.0 service./oauth2/authorise
endpoint with the developer's client_id
and other
details including the requested scopes and a registered redirect_uri
.redirect_uri
provided
with a code
parameter to be used in the next stage.access_token
and
refresh_token
by making a POST
request to the /oauth/token
endpoint.code
, the developer's client_id
,
client_secret
and some other relevant information. The grant_type
must be set to
authorization_code
to exchange an authorization code for an access token./oauth/verify
endpoint./oauth/token
endpoint again to exchange
the refresh token for a new access token. The grant_type
must be set to refresh_token
to exchange a refresh token for an access token.For an access token of my_access_token
, the following curl request demonstrates the
setting of the Authorization
HTTP request header, as defined by RFC2617:
curl -XGET -H "Authorization: Bearer my_access_token" https://api.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/00000006
GET /company/00000006 HTTP/1.1
Host: api.company-information.service.gov.uk
Authorization: Bearer my_access_token
Each Companies House OAuth 2.0 service endpoint is documented with examples within the API specifications list in the Developer's API suite.
Companies House has also written an example third party test harness application that shows how a web server application can interact with the Companies House OAuth 2.0 service. The README of this GitHub repository details how to configure and run the test harness.

Email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Basicly, you will need to include the CSS files & JS files within a HEAD tag. I suggest you to use the latest jQuery. Download from here.
You need to make sure "jSlider.css", "jQuery" & "jquery.jSlider.js" are included & loaded correctly. (For JS files, you are allowed to place them at the bottom of the page to keep the page rendering wihout being blocked.)
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="assets/css/jSlider.css" />
This jSlider is generated using a DIV tag. You will need a wrapper which have the class name "jSlider". Then, inside the wrapper, each slide will be place in a sub DIV. Mostly, the content is image but you still can use other tags to display other things.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

Done! the slider is ready!
Animated content
If you wish to have some nice & simple animated content showed when a slide is active, please add some special classes to the elements as showed in the below screenshot. Remember to specify the position:absolute as well as top, left position of each "appear-*" element.

This is the slide title!

This can be moved after the slide is showed...

...in different directions...

...and with different animation effects

powered by jSlider!

This jSlider options are managed using "data-*" properties. You can add them to the wrapper as below:

Here is the document about "data-*" options:
Normally, the CSS of jSlider is just fine. You will not need to modify it except the slider dimension (width & height), the display of the buttons (previous / next buttons & pagination buttons.)
You are recommended not to modify the "jSlider.css" file which is the main core CSS file of jSlider. It contains many important CSS rules.
To specify the slider dimension & modify the previous / next buttons as well as the pagination buttons at the bottom of the slider, I suggest you to use another CSS file & override the CSS rules.
Slider dimension
The slider width & height are managed by using CSS rule. You can use reponsive rules to resize the slider width & height for each screen size.
Auto height: You can the slider height to AUTO. The slider height will automatically set to the height of the first image in the first slide.
Acctually, you don't need to do Javascript code except you have to generate the slider from Ajax content or you have to force the slider to move to the specific slide.
Below is the list of API functions:
Methods:
$('#sliderId').sliderInit({settings});
$('#sliderId').sliderStop();
$('#sliderId').sliderStop(direction);You must specify the direction value (1 or -1): go forward 1, go backward -1.
$('#sliderId').sliderUpdate(index);You must specify the slide index. The first slide index is "0" (zero).
*About settings: {settings} is an object value which is the same as "data-*" properties mentioned earlier in the DATA Properties. Below is the default settings.
{ 'navigation': 'hover' /* hover | always | none */ , 'indicator': 'always' /* hover | always | none */ , 'speed': 500 , 'delay': 5000 , 'transition': 'slide' /* slide | fade */ , 'loop': false /* false | true */ , 'group': 1 }
Events:
$('#sliderId').on('slideCreated', function(evt) { /* do something */ });
$('#sliderId').on('slideStart', function(evt) { /* do something */ });
$('#sliderId').on('slideComplete', function(evt) { alert(evt.current); /* return the current slide index */ });
$('#sliderId').on('slideCancelAutoPlay', function(evt) { /* do something */ });

Load balancing is a crucial part of parallel simulations. Within Sandia's ASCI program, many different load-balancing algorithms and tools enable successful parallel computation. The Chaco static partitioning package is used as a pre-processor to applications to provide initial decompositions. This tool is coupled with the Nemesis parallel mesh database to enable efficient input and output on parallel computers. Dynamic load balancing is used in particle methods, contact detection algorithms, and adaptive finite element methods. In this talk, the load-balancing tools and methods used in Sandia's ASCI program are discussed.
