Jeremy Corbyn heckler's pulpit ban starts as Church of Scotland misses Sunday service
Reverend Richard Cameron’s stand-in told parishioners in Scotstoun that the minister had been temporarily relieved of his duties.
by Jackie Grant, https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/authors/jackie-grant/A minister who posted homophobic comments on social media was nowhere to be seen yesterday as his shocked congregation were told about his pulpit ban.
Richard Cameron’s stand-in told parishioners at Scotstoun Parish Church in Glasgow that he’d been temporarily relieved of his duties.
It comes after Cameron was suspended for heckling Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn during a visit to Scotstoun last Wednesday and retweeting a series of homophobic and anti-gay marriage messages.
One parishioner yesterday described the situation as
“very sad”.
“I’ve been coming to this church for 20 years and Reverend Cameron has been here for 15 years. It’s heartbreaking”, she said.
Another added: “I’m not happy with him. That’s the safest way to put it”.
Cameron approached the Labour leader when he visited the Heart of Scotstoun community centre on his 48-hour tour of Scotland.
He branded him a “terrorist sympathiser” and said: “I thought you’d be wearing your Islamic Jihad scarf, Mr Corbyn.” His shameful Twitter history emerged after the incident.
Cameron tweeted that “homosexual behaviour is a sin” and said “allowing children to change their gender is wicked”.
In September, he tweeted: “Christ has the power to
help and change anyone. Obviously, many gays hate this because they want to carry on in their perversion.”
The Church of Scotland confirmed they had
“administratively suspended” Cameron while they carry out an inquiry into the incident as well as complaints about his social media use.
During yesterday’s church service, Reverend George Cowie told the congregation that Cameron had been told to stay away from the pulpit.
“It doesn’t mean he’s been found guilty of any wrongdoing, it’s just to take Richard out of a very difficult situation while matters are ongoing”, he said.
“The church received complaints about your minister regarding his encounter with the leader of the Labour Party and his use of social media.
“As a result, he has been required to step back from active duties.
“This is a very difficult situation, not just for Richard, Wendy and their family but for others affected and our prayers are with you at this time. The Church of Scotland cares for everyone in this situation very deeply.”
He said an interim moderator will be appointed to support parishioners.
At the end of the service, a second minister, Reverend Hilary McDougall, said Cameron and his family are in their prayers as “they dwell in this time of uncertainty”.
“As they look to the future, they have our compassion and grace”, she said.
Cameron stood by his Twitter comments when approached by the Daily Record last week.


React Native and Expo
I’ve started my career as a backend developer. Pretty early on, I had to get familiar the console and chose Vim as my main editor. Afterwards, as a sysadmin and dba I lived in ssh sessions. It’s great, I love it, but when it’s time to switch to the frontend I struggle.
Imagine my hapiness when I found about a project that lets me code for mobile without leaving the command line.
React Native and Expo
React Native is a Facebook project that converts Javascript into native Android and iOS code. Using one language for both platforms is definetly enticing and conventient.
Expo is an official React Native project that lets you do without full featured IDEs like Android Studio.
https://expo.io/
Curious about how it worked, I tried it for a few days and here’s the result.
Setting Up
We only need Node.js to get started:
$ npm install -g expo-cli
$ expo init
? Choose a template: (Use arrow keys)
----- Managed workflow -----
❯ blank a minimal app as clean as an empty canvas
blank (TypeScript) same as blank but with TypeScript configuration
tabs several example screens and tabs using react-navigation
----- Bare workflow -----
minimal bare and minimal, just the essentials to get you started
minimal (TypeScript) same as minimal but with TypeScript configuration
$ npm install
Running
Running the application is as easy as:
$ npm run start
The command starts a bunch of processes, including a local dashboard running on localhost:19002
.
The quickest way of viewing the application is by scanning the QR code with your phone and running it on the physical device.
Additionally, you can run the application in a virtual device if you have installed the emulator (Android Studio and avd)
Building
The Expo platform offers a cloud build service. Compiling an Android package is as easy as:
$ expo build:android
After a few minutes, you’ll find the signed APK from the website, ready to upload to the Play Store.
Ejecting
The Expo build service is nice but it can get inflexible. I’d like to be able to do End-to-End testing, and manage the project entirely in my CI/CD workflow instead of depending on 3rd parties.
Fortunately, Expo can create native Android and iOS projects that are will feel familiar to mobile developers.
To get these files, we must eject the project. The price we pay is that we no longer can build it from the Expo service:
$ expo eject
? How would you like to eject your app?
Read more: https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/expokit/eject/ (Use arrow keys)
❯ Bare: I'd like a bare React Native project.
ExpoKit: I'll create or log in with an Expo account to use React Native and the Expo SDK.
Cancel: I'll continue with my current project structure.
Of course, Expo may not be the best alternative for every case: https://docs.expo.io/versions/latest/introduction/why-not-expo/
The android
directory can be opened by Android Studio. We can compile an APK with gradle and run the project in an emulator as usual.
Summary
Expo is a nice alternative to full-featured IDEs. We can prototype pretty quickly a mobile project and when it’s time for more serious work. We can get a good Android project.

Integer.compare()
method or
a similar method from the Long
, Short
, Byte
, Double
or Float
classes,
instead of more verbose or less efficient constructs.
If x
and y
are boxed integers, then x.compareTo(y)
is suggested,
if they are primitives Integer.compare(x, y)
is suggested.
Example:
public int compare(int x, int y) {
return x > y ? 1 : x < y ? -1 : 0;
}
After the quick-fix is applied:
public int compare(int x, int y) {
return Integer.compare(x, y);
}
Note that Double.compare
and Float.compare
slightly change the code semantics. In particular,
they make -0.0
and 0.0
distinguishable (Double.compare(-0.0, 0.0)
yields -1).
Also, they consistently process NaN
value. In most of the cases, this semantics change actually improves the
code. Use the checkbox to disable this inspection for floating point numbers if semantics change is unacceptable
in your case.

The Enumerable Module in Ruby
A brief look at Ruby’s Enumerable Module and methods
“A set is a Many that allows itself to be thought of as a One” — Georg Cantor
I’m hurtling towards the one year mark as a full time Rubyist. I still consider myself to be an utter novice but I hope to have at least picked up a few good habits along the way. One area where my understanding has evolved is in dealing with Ruby collections — traversing Hashes and Arrays and manipulating them in a way that is efficient and idiomatic.
I intend to sketch out the behaviour of some of the more common methods found within Ruby’s ‘Enumerable’ module, in particular when you want to interrogate or manipulate a collection. In general I’m using ‘enumerable’ loosely in the context of Arrays and Hashes i.e. collections which can be counted/ordered in some way. This post is heavily indebted to all of the further reading identified at the end.
Everything was each
When I first started working with Ruby I more or less only knew the fundamental ‘each’ method, and I manipulated and twisted it to achieve the desired outcome For instance, if I wanted to identify only the even numbers in an array:
even_numbers = []
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].each do |num|
even_numbers << num if num.even?
end
puts even_numbers
=> [2, 4]
As far as I was concerned this worked fine. But I was conscious of regularly seeing other, far terser ways of achieving the same work in other people’s code.
The Enumerable Module
One of the core Ruby modules is ‘Enumerable’. A mixin which provides a “several traversal and searching methods, and with the ability to sort”. This module is included within the core classes Array and Hash
Array.included_modules?
=> [Enumerable, Kernel]
Hash.included_modules?
=> [Enumerable, Kernel]
I’m not going to look too closely at sorting in this post, but focus more on traversing enumerable classes and, perhaps, manipulating them in some way. I first saw the various methods I’d been stumbling across clearly laid out by Robert Qualls:
Enumerable.instance_methods.sort
=> [:all?, :any?, :chunk, :collect, :collect_concat, :count, :cycle, :detect, :drop, :drop_while, :each_cons, :each_entry, :each_slice, :each_with_index, :each_with_object, :entries, :find, :find_all, :find_index, :first, :flat_map, :grep, :group_by, :include?, :inject, :lazy, :map, :max, :max_by, :member?, :min, :min_by, :minmax, :minmax_by, :none?, :one?, :partition, :reduce, :reject, :reverse_each, :select, :slice_after, :slice_before, :slice_when, :sort, :sort_by, :take, :take_while, :to_a, :to_h, :zip]
I’m going to briefly dwell on a small subset of these methods that I find myself using regularly: #any?, #collect and #select.
#any?
The first thing to note about this method is the concluding question mark, which conventionally indicates that it will return a boolean value (i.e. True or False). Such methods are also called ‘predicate’ methods. Generally any is used to ask whether any of the elements of the collection conform to the block that is passed in, for example:
capitals = ['London', 'Edinburgh', 'Belfast', 'Cardiff']
capitals.any? { |name| name.length >=5 }
=> true
The fundamental behaviour of any? is to “[return] true if the block ever returns a value other than false or nil”. If no block is passed to the method then it simply iterates through the collection implictly asking ‘is there anything here that isn’t false or nil?’
foo = [nil, false, true, 5]
bar = [nil, false, nil, false]
foo.any? # true
bar.any? # false
I now find myself using any? regularly, not to manipulate a collection but rather to question its contents.
#collect
The absence of a question mark suggests that the above method does more than simply return a boolean value. In contrast to #each, #collect actually returns a whole new array, its elements are the product of running the passed block on every item in the original collection. So, for instance,
def double_it(enum)
enum.collect { |x| x * 2 }
end
double_it([2, 4, 6, 8, 10])
=> [4, 8, 12, 16, 20] # returns the manipulated array
The collect method, in practical terms, is almost interchangable with the ‘map’ method.
#select
This is the method I find myself using most regularly. In manipulating a collection I often want to identify a subset of it that conforms to a certain condition e.g. ‘All of those in Year 9 who scored more than 75 in the exam’.
year_nine = {Adams: 34, Butler: 55, Carr: 93, Davies: 44, Edwards: 88}
year_nine.select { |student, score| score > 75 }
=> {:Carr=>93, :Edwards=>88}
Select returns an entirely new object consisting of those elements from the original collection that met the conditions passed into the select’s block. In other words it’s used when you’re asking ‘Can I have a subset of the original collection which fits a particular criteria’.
The inverse of #select is #reject, which returns an array of all of the elements for which the block returned false. For instance:
homes = {'Jay Gatsby' => 'West Egg', 'José Buendía' => 'Macondo', 'Billy Pilgrim' => 'New York'}
homes.reject { |name, town| town.length < 8 }
=> {"Jay Gatsby"=>"West Egg", "Billy Pilgrim"=>"New York"}
In the above example we end up with a new Hash containing those elements for which the test ‘Town name is less than 8 characters’ returned false. i.e. all of those towns whose name is eight or more character in length.
Easily Enumerable
It is also possible to use the core Enumerable Module in your own classes (this was explained really excellently by Jaime Bellmyer). Conceptually an object is enumerable if, broadly speaking, it can be ‘counted’ i.e. it has elements which are able to be iterated through. So if you’re defining a class which represents a collection then the logic of Enumerable could be useful.
class Bookshelf
include Enumerable
attr_accessor :books
def initialize
@books = []
end
def each(&block)
@books.each { |book| block.call(book) }
end
end
There are a few deceptively complicated things going on above (e.g. ‘& the unary ampersand operator’ and an attr_accessor) — but for the purpose of this post the key point is that you can include the Enumerator mixin, and the powerful logic it provides, in your own classes. The key requirement is that the class has its own #each method, because this core behaviour of being able to move through a set is key to the Enumerable module.
Ampersand shortcut
Just as a final addendum — the unary ampersand operater I mentioned above often appears when traversing collections
users.map(&:name)
There are some good explanations of what’s going on ‘under the hood’ here & here (some of which still eludes my understanding). But to quickly outline in purely practical terms: when you’re looking (for instance) to identify a single property from items in a collection, this allows you to quickly call for the attribute on every member of a set and return an array of those values. So the above code is equivalent to the slightly more verbose
users.map do |user|
user.name
end
Conclusion
Clearly we have only scratched the surface of Ruby’s Enumerable module. The message I hoped to capture in writing this post, as someone who’s still very new to Ruby, is that it’s always worth taking a step back and considering ‘What am I trying to find out here?’ — because this will often change the tools you need for the job.
(Thanks very much to @chrislowis for his suggestions on improving this post).

HTML 5 Image upload uses the feature of HTML 5 and file handling. The requirments for using this tool are jQuery 1.9.x or higher and the use of Twitter Bootstrap.
The basic usage of the HTML 5 Image upload is to write the HTML code below and assign the JavaScript class to the element. The code can be used on a single element as well as multiple elements.
The basic usage of the HTML 5 Image upload is to write the HTML code below and assign the JavaScript class to the element. The code can be used on a single element as well as multiple elements.
If you want the plugin to be responsive, add data-resize = true. That way, the plugin will resize with the window and when a mobile device changes orientation. When this option is not added, after initializing the plugin, it will not change width or height.
You can also use HTML5 Image upload with a form and let it submit the image when you submit the form. Depending if you use the canvas option or not, the file will be posted as a base64 encoded string or as an input file element (in PHP, it will be in the $_FILES variable).
If you want the form to be blocked (prevent submitting) when the image is not selected (or when the user is still in edit mode), use the required="required" attribute on the input field.
Want to preview an image you are using in your CMS, use the image option. You can also add the removeurl option to make AJAX calls to the server to remove uploaded images. The variables that will be given in the call $_POST['name'] with the image source.
It is possible you already have the needed images on your server and you only need to crop them. With the added option of image and setting editstart the user can directly start editting an existing image on your server. Also, if the image is on your server and you don't want the use uploading the cropped image onto your server again, you could just send only the dimensions to your server. Use dimensionsonly to achive this.
If you prefer to have no ghosting image shown, use the ghost option and set it to false (default is true).
The selected image from the input can be much bigger then needed, to make sure that the user can see the whole image when starting cropping, use originalsize. This will resize the image just a little bit bigger then the image preview (default is true).
If you want to receive the filename/location of the image after processing it, just use the custom functions to do so. Here is an example for getting the file after it is uploaded.
When using pure CSS, you have to set the width and height! Otherwise the script doesn't know what the dimensions of the image are. You can use both pixels (px) or percentage (%).Not that resizing the window does not resize that imagepreview (will be build in later).
Using options
Use the width and height option to set the size of the element. You need to set both in order for the script to know the dimensions.
Mix and mingle
You can use the css width and height together with the width and height options, you can set the element. The important thing is that you use the same ratio, so if you choose a full HD image, ratio 16:9, the CSS should be also in that ratio. It's possible to use you one CSS element, width or height. HTML5 Upload image will calculate the missing element with the correct ratio.
Below are all the options that can be given with the plugin. The options can be given via the data- attribute of the chosen element or within the javascript declaration.
Important to know is that the options set with the data- attribute are prior to the options that are declared in JavaScript.
Option
Default
Description
data-width or width
-
The width of the image in pixels
data-height or height
-
The height of the image in pixels
data-url or url
-
The url where to send the data when using AJAX to save the image.
data-ajax or ajax
true
Set this to false to use a form to save the image. When using the data-canvas="true" option, the data will be set in a input field. The name of the base64 encoded image is data, the whole field is json encoded, containing the width and height of the original image, the width and height of the final image and the left en top position of the crop that needs to be made.
data-canvas or canvas
true
Set this to false when you want to save the image with a serverside script. When true the data send to the server will be cropped and ready to be saved in a file. The data of the image is base64 encoded and is json encoded.
data-originalsize or originalsize
true
With this option the picked image by the uploader will apear in the original size or already resized to fill the element. Set false to let it resize.
data-ghost or ghost
true
This will show a ghost of the image outside the border of the element, to let the user know what he is cropping. Set false to hide this.
data-image or image
-
This will let you preview an image you already have on your server.
data-removeurl or removeurl
-
When given this url, everytime the user will upload an image and then clicks the trashcan, the url gets called so you can remove the image. This way your server doesn't get filled up with "tmp" images the user made. Also, when providing data-image, when the user clicks the trashcan, the url gets called so you can remove the preview image.
data-dimensionsonly or dimensionsonly
false
This option will let you $_POST only the dimensions and not the image source. Use this option if you only want the user to post dimensions, for example when you have the original image already stored on your server.
data-editstart or editstart
false
When you provide data-image you can let users start editing the image immediately
data-save-original or save-original
false
Set this option to true if you want to save the original image and the cropped one. You need to edited your saving scripts also!
data-resize or resize
false
Set this option to true if you want the plugin to change size when you resize your window or when a mobile device orientation is changed.
data-download or download
false
Set this option to true if you want to let users download their cropped image.
data-save or save
true
Set this option to false if you don't want the image to be saved and handle it yourself with your own function (use onSave, se below)
data
{}
The data option can only be filled within the javascript. It's a object that you can add when the image is saving via AJAX. The object will be added in with the POST call of the AJAX request.
There have been requests for hiding buttons in the editor. You can achive this with CSS, but now i have made a change that you can do this with the (example) data-button-edit attribute (also the buttonEdit). The only thing you have to do, to not display the button, is set it to false!
Below a list of possible buttons.
Button
Data attribute
Option
CSS
Description
data-button-edit
buttonEdit
.dropzone .btn-edit
Edit an existing image (when providing data-image)
data-button-zoomin
buttonZoomin
.dropzone .btn-zoom-in
Zooming in on the image in the editor
data-button-zoomout
buttonZoomout
.dropzone .btn-zoom-out
Zooming out on the image in the editor
data-button-reset
buttonReset
.dropzone .btn-reset
Reseting the image to the original size, same size as when selecting the image (so when data-originalsize = false it will be the smaller size, fitting the element)
data-button-cancel
buttonCancel
.dropzone .btn-cancel
Canceling the uploaded image and reseting the uploader.
data-button-done
buttonDone
.dropzone .btn-done
Crop the image to the selected dimensions. When hiding this button, you cannot crop the image!
data-button-del
buttonDel
.dropzone .btn-del
"Deleting" the preview image or the image when done cropping. No actual deleting is done, only when using data-removeurl is set to a script removing an image.
Callback functions
There are several callback functions implemented in the plugin. You can use them in the JavaScript. The argument that we give to each callback is the plugin itself (this). Within the object, you can all the image (this.image), the element (this.element) and the input (this.input).
Callback
Description
onAfterInitImage
When the script has been initialized and the element is turned into the plugin.
onAfterZoomImage
When zooming the image
onAfterMoveImage
After draging the image
onAfterResetImage
When users reset the image to starting size.
onAfterProcessImage
Triggers after the user click on done button (green button) and after uploading via AJAX (when options is set).
onAfterCancel
When users clicks reset button (red button).
onAfterRemoveImage
When removing an image (clicking the delete button and making the ajax call)
onSave
When data-save = false, you can push your own function to process the data that would otherwise be send to the server. Set data as argument of your function and you will be able to handle the following data: {name, imageOriginalWidth, imageOriginalHeight, imageWidth, imageHeight, width, height, left, top, data (this is de base64 image)}
Because this plugin heavely leans on the HTML5 file api, it only works with HTML5 browsers. At this point, we tested the plugin on pc and mac with these results

Only supported with version 6 and above, the windows version of Safari ended with version 5.1
Only supported with version 6 and above. You need OS X Lion or higher to get Safari version 6 or higher.
Not supported browsers
When a user try to use the plugin in a unsupported browser, the following message will show.
HTML5 Upload Image: Sadly.. this browser does not support the plugin, update your browser today!
Mobile / Tablet support
NOW SUPPORTED! (21 november 2014)
Tested on iPad with iOS 8.1 (8.0 will not work! This is because Apple has forgotten to add the file API in safari!).
Tested on Android 4.4
Frequently asked questions
The image quality of the canvas worse then the original?
Canvas doesn't use any kind of anti-aliasing when resizing an image. There are multiple custom solutions you can use for this problem and implement it in a callback function. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=canvas+image+quality+html5

Slow-moving landslides don’t pose a serious threat to human life, but they do impact the health of our rivers. While these landslides are common in New Zealand, little is known about these landslides because they are difficult to monitor. In my PhD I am using advanced remote sensing techniques, such as interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR), to track these landslides and to assess their impact on New Zealand’s rivers.

Riverbank erosion is an important source of pollutants to Iowa’s rivers, but are riverbanks a dominant source of pollution? My colleagues at Iowa State University and I are using both in-field and remote sensing techniques to determine if the amount of Phosphorus and sediment contributed by riverbank erosion is comparable to the amount that is contributed by eroding farm fields. For this project I developed AIMM, a remote sensing model that measures riverbank erosion over large regions.

The Daily Erosion Project provides daily estimates of farmland erosion across the Midwest, but it needs to know how much plant material is present in farm fields in order to run. After collecting a massive amount of field data, we are now using the Google Earth Engine platform to develop and implement a remote sensing model to measure the amount of plant residue cover present in farm fields across the Midwest.

class: center, middle, inverse, title-slide .title[ # Agricultural Shocks and Social Conflict in Southeast Asia ] .author[ ### David Ubilava ] .date[ ### University of Sydney ] --- # Agriculture and conflict are linked; sometimes literally .right-90[ ![A tractor pulling a tank](tractor.png) ] --- # But, more typically, possibly also causally .right-90[ We focus on low- and middle-income countries of Southeast Asia, where agriculture employs and pays large shares of population. We ask the question: > Do harvest-time agricultural shocks lead to changes in forms of conflict? ] --- # Harvest-time violence may be linked to rapacity .right-90[ [Ubilava et al. (2023)](https://doi.org/10.1111/ajae.12364) investigate the effect of cereal price change on seasonal violence in the croplands of Africa. The key finding: much of the annually accrued effect—which is positive, statistically significant, and economically meaningful—happens during the first three months of the crop year. Accords with the *rapacity mechanism*: farmers attacked when most gains are to be made (or maximum damage incurred). ] --- # Opportunity cost may explain less protests .right-90[ The *opportunity cost mechanism* often is portrayed as a trade-off a person faces between farming and fighting. Agricultural shocks may push a person in one direction or another... but this is a longer term engagement. In the short run, the opportunity cost mechanism is well-suited to explain the lack of protests at harvest time. But, some of this may be offset by *resentment*, i.e., when people feel being worse off only because others are doing well. ] --- # More violence and (maybe) less protests at harvest .right-90[ Relative to the rest of the year, at harvest time we estimate: - more than ten percent increase in violence against civilians - up to ten percent increase in battles* - up to ten percent decrease in protests* `$$\\[.5in]$$` *sensitive to data subsetting or changes in model specification. ] --- # Conflicts happen all across Southeast Asia .left-50[ From the [ACLED Project](https://acleddata.com/), over 70 thousand incidents of: - **battles**, - **explosions/remote violence**, - **violence against civilians**, - **riots**, and - **protests** observed over the 2010-2022 period. ] .right-50[ ![Conflict across space](Figures/map_conflict.png) ] --- # Conflicts happen all the time in Southeast Asia .left-40[ Unbalanced panel of eight countries.

We consider: - all forms of conflict combined, and - each form of conflict separately. The treatment variable is the product of the cropland indicator (harvest area `\(\ge\)` 10,000ha) and harvest season indicator. Fixed effects: cell, country-year, year-month. ] --- # Battles and violence increase and protests decrease .left-40[ The estimated effect is evaluated at the average size of the cropland and relative to the average conflict.

Finland to reduce time for grant of work visas to under two weeks
The move was aimed at attracting more software professionals from countries like India, he said
by Press Trust of IndiaThe Finnish government plans to reduce the time taken to grant work visas to just one to two weeks by next year, the country's Minister of Employment, Harakka, said on Thursday.
The move was aimed at attracting more software professionals from countries like India, he said.
"For these expert visas and for these expert work permits, which require a certain (level of) income, but are also on the express lane on permits, we are aiming to get these things handled in one or two weeks," the minister said.
"We are looking to shorten the time frame. This we can achieve next year because we are shifting the whole process of immigration - work-based and study-based immigration - to my Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment from the Interior Ministry," he added.

Roger Stone Fears He’s Going to be ‘Epsteined’ in Jail
Trump confidant found guilty on all 7 counts now concerned for his life.
by Paul Joseph WatsonAfter being convicted on all 7 counts in his federal trial, Roger Stone now fears he will be ‘Epsteined’ in jail.
The former Trump confidant was found guilty today of all 7 counts against him, including witness tampering and making false statements.
Stone’s supporters assert that the charges were just another aspect of the witch hunt conducted by the deep state against Trump and his allies as part of a coup to overthrow the president.
With Stone facing the rest of his life behind bars, he now fears an even worse fate.
“I saw Roger Stone a couple nights ago and he told me he’s scared they’re going to Epstein him. I can’t say that I think his fear is unfounded,” tweeted journalist Cassandra Fairbanks.
Jeffrey Epstein purportedly committed suicide but many people do not believe the official explanation given reports that he was about to name high level individuals who were complicit in his sex trafficking ring.
Stone will still be hoping that he can avoid jail via a presidential pardon, although the chances of that happening look slim.

Overview • Getting started • Protocol for spin labeling and DEER simulation • Loading the protein • Site scan ↑ | ↓
MMM allows simulating a DEER trace and the distance distribution based on the computed rotamers. To simulate the DEER trace use the menu item:
EPR/DEER
A window will appear where you can select which computed side chains to use for the DEER simulation (in this case there are only two computed sites: 106 and 160).
Select the site 106, press +
to add it in the spin system, then select the second site, press +
.
Once you selected the first pair of spins, the DEER trace and the distance distribution will appear.
To copy the figures, Detach
them and copy/paste the Matlab figures by using the menu of the detached figures.
To compare the computed DEER trace with the experimental one, choose
Load Xepr
(to load the original DEER trace in Xepr format)
And choose the Fit options
for the background.
Or
Load Deer Analysis
(to load the processed DEER data that were saved with DeerAnalysis)
The latter option is recommended in the case the background correction was difficult to perform, and the analysis has been optimized. However, if you have doubts about the background correction performed in DeerAnalysis, you should also try whether the model-based approach of MMM can find a more convincing fit.
You find the experimental data and DeerAnalysis result for this label pair in the LHCII subdirectory of MMM.
The comparison will appear in the same window. To copy the comparison plots, detach the figures as before. With the Save
button you can save the underlying data as ASCII files and process them in other programs (e.g. Origin or, if you must, Excel).
Comparison of the computed and experimental traces gives a qualitatively good agreement in this case. Beware that close to position 106 there is a residue with missing atoms (green amino acid in the Hierarchy window). The possible influence of missing atoms on the calculation must be investigated.

He said AICTE has started online workshops on various issues at this critical moment. Even online examination and inspection of documents of various educational institutions is being considered online in the near future. According to him, in that case, having video recordings will not lead to allegations of corruption.

Speech Synthesis, also known as Text to Speech (TTS) is the task of synthesizing natural and intelligible speech from text, with broad applications in Industry. Modern day TTS Systems involve expertise from Machine Learning, Linguistics and Signal Processing. Research on TTS has shifted from Early Concatenative Synthesis, to Parametric Synthesis to Neural Speech Synthesis. In this blog post, we give a high level overview of TTS Systems, and illustrate Why and How Speech Output can be controlled. We specifically look at how and attention varies with the explicit introduction of pitch and emotion features.
With the development of Deep Learning, Neural Network based TTS Approaches have become prominent. Neural Speech Synthesis approaches give higher voice quality in terms of both intelligibility and naturalness, and less requirement on human preprocessing and feature development. A Modern TTS System consists of three components - Text Analysis Module, Acoustic Model and a Vocoder. Let’s look into each in detail.
Text Analysis
Text Analysis converts text into rich lingusitc information about pronunciation, rhythm, stress, intonation and prosody. These lingusitc features serve as the input to acoustic models.
Phonemes are one such way to repesent linguistic features. Phoneme is a perceptually distinct unit of sound.
English language has 44 phones, meaning pronunciation of any english word can be represented with these 44 phones.

Acoustic Model
Acoustic Models are Sequence-To-Sequence Models which generate Acoustic features from linguistic features or directly from raw text. The Acoustic features are later converted into a speech waveform. The kind of acoustic features determine the type of architecture used for generation. Mel-Spectrogram is a widely used acoustic feature output, owing to its minimal information loss.
Mel-Spectrogram is derived based on linear cosine transform of speech wave on a log linear frequency scale.
Vocoders
Vocoders are used to synthesize waveform from acoustic features. Neural Vocoders have recently gained popularity owing to their higher speech quality.
Since speech waveform is very long, autoregressive waveform generation takes much inference time. Thus, generative models such as Flow, GAN,
VAE, and DDPM (Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model, Diffusion for short) are used in waveform generation. Prominent TTS Methods used GAN based Vocoders, where Generators use transposed and dilated convolutions
to generate the waveform, and Discriminator judges the authenticity of generated data.
In a traditional Machine Learning problem, generalization is typically achieved by throwing in more data. Unlike a traditional machine learning problem, Text-To-Speech is a one-to-many mapping problem. TTS is a typical one-to-many mapping problem, since multiple possible speech waveforms correspond to the same text message, owing to variations in pitch, duration, volume, energy and prosody. Controlling these parameters is necessary, as the model is prone to overfit to the variations of the target speech in the training set, resulting in poor generalization ability. Recent Research has demonstrated ability to control Duration, Pitch, Energy in the output speech. In the following experiments, we model pitch, and emotion, two features which influence the quality of speech explicitly. We then add this variance information to the phoneme hidden sequence before decoding. We look through the attention values to see how they affect the output.
Pitch
Pitch is a key feature to convey emotion, and greatly affects the speech prosody. FastSpeech provides a way to control pitch by adding pitch variance information to the phoneme hidden sequence. The ground truth pitch information, extracted from speech waveforms, are used as targets during training. The following figure shows how phoneme level attention without and with embedded pitch information.
Visualising Attention with and without pitch embeddings
We generate speech for the text "Ohh My God! Our dog died." with and without pitch embeddings. The following shows the visualisation of attention values in
the first decoding step. The tokens on the left indicate phones in the sentence. Consecutive occurence of same phone are representative of it's duration

Pitch Embeddings have reduced the attention span for each token while generating output. Each token is giving more weight
to its corresponding input token, compared to without pitch embedding.
Emotion
We now experiment with another sppech parameter, Emotion, to control speech output. We add emotion embeddings to the phoneme hidden sequence, and notice the difference in output speech waveform and attention of each token to input.

Self-awareness is mindfulness, although I think one could more precisely say that self-awareness is self-directed mindfulness
I tried the body scan exercise outlined in Chapter Four of Search Inside Yourself. This is a concept I was familiar with from yoga, but not something I practice regularly. I was sitting in the chair that I usually sit in while working at my desk. Although I have a standing desk, I usually sit (which does sort of defeat the purpose of having a standing desk). The scanning exercise helped me to realise that although I am feeling relaxed and comfortable in this chair, it is terrible for my posture and I'm putting a lot of unnecessary strain on my back. I'm going to try a different chair and make an effort to stand more frequently. I think it would be useful to do a quick body scan from time to time to be more mindful about my posture while working.
I found this section to be very valuable. I have learned recently that when we are feeling very stressed, self-awareness is often very limited and it is easy to feel disempowered. However, by registering and acknowledging one's emotional state it is possible to exercise a little objectivity. So for example, rather than simply thinking, "I am very stressed" I can say, "I am feeling very stressed...how is this manifesting, both physically and emotionally? What is causing this stress? Is there anything I can do to a) address the cause of stress, and b) address the symptoms of stress". I have been practicing this over the past couple of months and have noticed a big improvement in my overall sense of wellbeing.

Detailed Description
The QImageIOPlugin class defines an interface for writing an image format plugin.
QImageIOPlugin is a factory for creating QImageIOHandler objects, which are used internally by QImageReader and QImageWriter to add support for different image formats to Qt.
Writing an image I/O plugin is achieved by subclassing this base class, reimplementing the pure virtual functions capabilities() and create(), and exporting the class with the Q_PLUGIN_METADATA() macro. See How to Create Qt Plugins for details.
An image format plugin can support three capabilities: reading (CanRead), writing (CanWrite) and incremental reading (CanReadIncremental). Reimplement capabilities() in you subclass to expose the capabilities of your image format.
create() should create an instance of your QImageIOHandler subclass, with the provided device and format properly set, and return this handler.
The json metadata file for the plugin needs to contain information about the image formats the plugins supports, together with the corresponding MIME types (one for each format). For a jpeg plugin, this could, for example, look as follows:
{ "Keys": [ "jpg", "jpeg" ], "MimeTypes": [ "image/jpeg", "image/jpeg" ] }
Different plugins can support different capabilities. For example, you may have one plugin that supports reading the GIF format, and another that supports writing. Qt will select the correct plugin for the job, depending on the return value of capabilities(). If several plugins support the same capability, Qt will select one arbitrarily.
See also QImageIOHandler and How to Create Qt Plugins.
Member Type Documentation
enum QImageIOPlugin::Capability
flags QImageIOPlugin::Capabilities
This enum describes the capabilities of a QImageIOPlugin.
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
QImageIOPlugin::CanRead | 0x1 | The plugin can read images. |
QImageIOPlugin::CanWrite | 0x2 | The plugin can write images. |
QImageIOPlugin::CanReadIncremental | 0x4 | The plugin can read images incrementally. |
The Capabilities type is a typedef for QFlags<Capability>. It stores an OR combination of Capability values.
Member Function Documentation
QImageIOPlugin::QImageIOPlugin(QObject *parent = Q_NULLPTR)
Constructs an image plugin with the given parent. This is invoked automatically by the moc generated code that exports the plugin.
[virtual]
QImageIOPlugin::~QImageIOPlugin()
Destroys the picture format plugin.
You never have to call this explicitly. Qt destroys a plugin automatically when it is no longer used.
[pure virtual]
Capabilities QImageIOPlugin::capabilities(QIODevice *device, const QByteArray &format) const
Returns the capabilities of the plugin, based on the data in device and the format format. If device is 0
, it should simply report whether the format can be read or written. Otherwise, it should attempt to determine whether the given format (or any format supported by the plugin if format is empty) can be read from or written to device. It should do this without changing the state of device (typically by using QIODevice::peek()).
For example, if the QImageIOPlugin supports the BMP format, format is either empty or "bmp"
, and the data in the device starts with the characters "BM"
, this function should return CanRead. If format is "bmp"
, device is 0
and the handler supports both reading and writing, this function should return CanRead | CanWrite.
Format names are always given in lower case.
[pure virtual]
QImageIOHandler *QImageIOPlugin::create(QIODevice *device, const QByteArray &format = QByteArray()) const
Creates and returns a QImageIOHandler subclass, with device and format set. The format must come from the values listed in the "Keys"
entry in the plugin metadata, or be empty. If it is empty, the data in device must have been recognized by the capabilities() method (with a likewise empty format).
Format names are always given in lower case.


1 Ball In, 1 Ball Out
Simple Example One
In this example, an orange ball is entering the blue box at a rate of 1 ball per second, or 1 ball/s. The orange ball is also leaving at 1 ball/s. We can express this with a mass balance equation as follows:
Variable Rate
Simple Example Two
In this example you can change the rate at which the orange balls enter and leave the blue box. You can adjust this rate up to 5 ball/s.
Notice how the orange balls will accumulate in the blue box if the IN rate is greater than the OUT rate


I am interested in computational biophysics, with a focus on investigating self assembling and phase separating systems in the cell. I develop models integrating theory, experiments and bioinformatics to study these phenomena.

RMT¶
The RMT (Remote Control) module, specific to the ESP32, was originally designed to send and receive infrared remote control signals. However, due to a flexible design and very accurate (as low as 12.5ns) pulse generation, it can also be used to transmit or receive many other types of digital signals:
import esp32
from machine import Pin
r = esp32.RMT(0, pin=Pin(18), clock_div=8)
r # RMT(channel=0, pin=18, source_freq=80000000, clock_div=8)
# The channel resolution is 100ns (1/(source_freq/clock_div)).
r.write_pulses((1, 20, 2, 40), start=0) # Send 0 for 100ns, 1 for 2000ns, 0 for 200ns, 1 for 4000ns
The input to the RMT module is an 80MHz clock (in the future it may be able to
configure the input clock but, for now, it’s fixed). clock_div
divides
the clock input which determines the resolution of the RMT channel. The
numbers specificed in write_pulses
are multiplied by the resolution to
define the pulses.
clock_div
is an 8-bit divider (0-255) and each pulse can be defined by
multiplying the resolution by a 15-bit (0-32,768) number. There are eight
channels (0-7) and each can have a different clock divider.
So, in the example above, the 80MHz clock is divided by 8. Thus the
resolution is (1/(80Mhz/8)) 100ns. Since the start
level is 0 and toggles
with each number, the bitstream is 0101
with durations of [100ns, 2000ns,
100ns, 4000ns].
For more details see Espressif’s ESP-IDF RMT documentation..
Warning
The current MicroPython RMT implementation lacks some features, most notably receiving pulses and carrier transmit. RMT should be considered a beta feature and the interface may change in the future.
-
class
esp32.
RMT
(channel, *, pin=None, clock_div=8)¶ This class provides access to one of the eight RMT channels. channel is required and identifies which RMT channel (0-7) will be configured. pin, also required, configures which Pin is bound to the RMT channel. clock_div is an 8-bit clock divider that divides the source clock (80MHz) to the RMT channel allowing the resolution to be specified.
-
RMT.
source_freq
()¶ Returns the source clock frequency. Currently the source clock is not configurable so this will always return 80MHz.
-
RMT.
clock_div
()¶ Return the clock divider. Note that the channel resolution is
1 / (source_freq / clock_div)
.
-
RMT.
wait_done
(timeout=0)¶ Returns True if RMT.write_pulses has completed.
If timeout (defined in ticks of
source_freq / clock_div
) is specified the method will wait for timeout or until RMT.write_pulses is complete, returningFalse
if the channel continues to transmit.
Warning
Avoid using wait_done()
if looping is enabled.
-
RMT.
loop
(enable_loop)¶ Configure looping on the channel, allowing a stream of pulses to be indefinitely repeated. enable_loop is bool, set to True to enable looping.
-
RMT.
write_pulses
(pulses, start)¶ Begin sending pulses, a list or tuple defining the stream of pulses. The length of each pulse is defined by a number to be multiplied by the channel resolution
(1 / (source_freq / clock_div))
. start defines whether the stream starts at 0 or 1.

Black doubled this position and, without taking too much time, White passed. He had quickly employed the principle of PRAT (Position, Race, Threat) and determined that he was behind in all three. Such a situation normally implies a pass and ergo, he passed.
However, I learned a long time ago that as a general rule, all general rules are wrong! PRAT is only meant as a guideline and not as an absolute method for making doubling decisions. There are situations, particularly towards the end of a game, where tactical analysis gives a much more accurate result than a general principle. This position ably demonstrates that point.
If Black rolls a five or a six he will be a heavy favourite , although he will not win all twenty of those games. It is the other sixteen games that are of more interest. With any of those rolls Black must weaken his position and give White very real game-winning chances. His large numbers will escape Black’s home board while with ones and twos he will hit the Black checker in his home board. The position will then become highly volatile and White’s ownership of the doubling cube could well be crucial to the outcome of the game.
Can we assume that White will win 50% or more of the games where Black doesn’t escape White’s board immediately? I think we can, plus he will won some games by racing or a late hit even when Black does escape. Certainly White will lose some gammons but not enough to influence the correct decision.
Of course Black should double but in fact White has a very clear take. He wins nearly 29% of the time from here. White was too hasty in his decision over the board – he should have done the tactical analysis before making his decision.
However, as we know, backgammon is a game of small margins. Take the dead checker on Black’s ace-point and put it on his 4-pt and the position becomes a borderline take/pass. Place the checker on his 6-pt and it becomes a clear pass because now Black’s 21 and 32 no longer significantly damage his position.
