The text object library also provides many ways to shape the appearance of individual paragraphs. Each paragraph within a text object may exhibit its own individual attributes if the text object is set to allow multiple paragraph attributes. The definitions within this section show the full range of possibilities for paragraph attributes.
The
VisTextParaAttr
structure provides the largest set of attributes for use by paragraphs within text objects. Note that although the
VisTextParaAttr
structure is of a fixed size, the paragraph attributes consist of this structure and a variable number of tabs; therefore, the paragraph attributes within a "run" may be variably sized. These entries are listed in VisTextParaAttr
. Comments follow the code display.
 This structure field allows the
VisTextParaAttr
structure to act as an element in an element array. For complete information on using paragraph attribute element arrays to implement paragraph style runs, see Paragraph Runs
.
VTPA_borderFlags
stores the
VisTextParaBorderFlags
to use in drawing any borders around the text paragraph.
VTPA_
borderColor
stores the color (of type
ColorQuad
) of the border.
VTPA_
attributes
stores the
VisTextParaAttrAttributes
to use on this paragraph. These attributes specify whether the paragraph uses keep-with, drop caps, automatic hyphenation, or paragraph numbering.
VTPA_
leftMargin
stores the left margin of the paragraph. This margin is the distance (offset in points) from the left edge of the text object.
VTPA_
rightMargin
stores the right margin of the paragraph. This margin is the distance (offset in points) from the right edge of the text object.
VTPA_
paraMargin
stores the paragraph margin. This margin is the additional distance (offset in points from the left margin) to indent the first line of a paragraph.
VTPA_
lineSpacing
stores the distance between lines of the paragraph. Single-spacing (a VTPA_
lineSpacing
of 1.0) is the default value.
VTPA_
leading
stores the leading of the paragraph. Leading is the additional space between all lines of a paragraph, independent of line spacing. This value is expressed in points.
VTPA_
spaceOnTop
stores the additional vertical distance (expressed in points) before the first line of the paragraph. VTPA_
spaceOnTop
plus VTPA_
spaceOnBottom
is the total vertical distance between paragraphs.
VTPA_
spaceOnBottom
stores the additional vertical distance (expressed in points) after the last line of the paragraph. VTPA_
spaceOnTop
plus VTPA_
spaceOnBottom
is the total vertical distance between paragraphs.
VTPA_bgColor
stores the background color (of type
ColorQuad
) of the paragraph. Note this is different from the background color of an individual character (in VTCA_
bgColor
). The background color of a character, if any, takes precedence over the background color of a paragraph.
VTPA_
numberOfTabs
stores the number of tab stops contained in this paragraph. Tabs are added at the end of the
VisTextParaAttr
structure. Therefore, this structure may be of variable size, depending on the number of tabs.
VTPA_
borderWidth
stores the width (in units of eight pixels) of the border, if any, attached to this paragraph.
VTPA_
borderSpacing
stores the spacing (in units of eight pixels) between the paragraph border, if any, and the paragraph itself.
VTPA_
borderShadow
stores the distance (in units of eight pixels) of the border shadow, if any, from the main border.
VTPA_
borderGrayScreen
stores the
SystemDrawMask
to use when drawing the paragraph border.
VTPA_
bgGrayScreen
stores the
SystemDrawMask
to use when drawing the paragraph background.
VTPA_
borderHatch
stores
HatchPattern
to use when drawing the border.
VTPA_
bgHatch
stores the
HatchPattern
to use when drawing the background.
VTPA_
defaultTabs
stores the spacing for default tabs.
VTPA_
startingParaNumber
stores the sequential number of this paragraph. This value depends on the
VisTextNumberType
in VTPA_
attributes
.
VTPA_
prependChars
stores the characters (up to four) to prepend to the beginning of this paragraph.
VTPA_
hyphenationInfo
stores the
VisTextHyphenationInfo
(see below) to use between lines of text within a paragraph.
VTPA_
keepInfo
stores the
VisTextKeepInfo
(see below) to use between this and other paragraphs.
VTPA_
dropCapInfo
stores the
VisTextDropCapInfo
(see below) to use at the start of this paragraph.
VTPA_nextStyle
and
VTPA_language
represent text attributes that are currently unimplemented but will be added.
VTPA_
reserved
reserves fifteen bytes of data at the end of the
VisTextParaAttr
structure. These bytes are used to designate extra tabs.
Code Display 10-6 VisTextParaBorderFlags
typedef WordFlags VisTextParaBorderFlags; #define VTPBF_LEFT 0x8000 #define VTPBF_TOP 0x4000 #define VTPBF_RIGHT 0x2000 #define VTPBF_BOTTOM 0x1000 #define VTPBF_DOUBLE 0x0800 #define VTPBF_DRAW_INNER_LINES 0x0400 #define VTPBF_SHADOW 0x0200 #define VTPBF_ANCHOR 0x0003 /* ShadowAnchor */
#define VTPBF_ANCHOR_OFFSET 0
typedef ByteEnum ShadowAnchor; #define SA_TOP_LEFT 0 #define SA_TOP_RIGHT 1 #define SA_BOTTOM_LEFT 2 #define SA_BOTTOM_RIGHT 3
The
VisTextParaBorderFlags
specify the manner in which a border should be drawn around the paragraph.
VTPBF_LEFT, VTPBF_TOP, VTPBF_RIGHT, and VTPBF_BOTTOM all specify whether their respective side is drawn with a border. If you wish a border to entirely surround the text object, you should set all of these flags.
VTPBF_DOUBLE specifies that there should be a two-line border around this paragraph. This flag will double any lines set to be drawn with VTPBF_LEFT, VTPBF_TOP, VTPBF_RIGHT, and VTPBF_BOTTOM.
VTPBF_DRAW_INNER_LINES draws lines between bordered paragraphs. If two consecutive paragraphs are marked with this flag, a line border will be drawn between them.
VTPBF_SHADOW specifies that the border should be shadowed. The direction of shadowing is specified in the VTPBF_ANCHOR flag.
VTPBF_ANCHOR specifies the
ShadowAnchor
to use if drawing a border shadow. The
ShadowAnchor
specifies the corner of the paragraph to anchor the shadow. The shadowing effect on the paragraph will proceed from this corner towards the opposite corner.
Code Display 10-7 VisTextNumberType
typedef ByteEnum VisTextNumberType; #define VTNT_NUMBER 0 #define VTNT_LETTER_UPPER_A 1 #define VTNT_LETTER_LOWER_A 2 #define VTNT_ROMAN_NUMERAL_UPPER 3 #define VTNT_ROMAN_NUMERAL_LOWER 4
The
VisTextNumberType
specifies the paragraph numbering scheme for this paragraph. For each paragraph with a numbering type, the object will number that paragraph sequentially based on the last occurrence of a paragraph with the same type. The text object stores this sequential number in the VTPA_
startingParaNumber
entry.
Code Display 10-8 VisTextParaAttrAttributes
typedef WordFlags VisTextParaAttrAttributes; #define VTPAA_JUSTIFICATION 0xc000 #define VTPAA_KEEP_PARA_WITH_NEXT 0x2000 #define VTPAA_KEEP_PARA_TOGETHER 0x1000 #define VTPAA_ALLOW_AUTO_HYPHENATION 0x0800 #define VTPAA_DISABLE_WORD_WRAP 0x0400 #define VTPAA_COLUMN_BREAK_BEFORE 0x0200 #define VTPAA_PARA_NUMBER_TYPE 0x01c0 #define VTPAA_DROP_CAP 0x0020 #define VTPAA_KEEP_LINES 0x0010
#define VTPAA_JUSTIFICATION_OFFSET 14 #define VTPAA_PARA_NUMBER_TYPE_OFFSET 5
VTPAA_JUSTIFICATION stores the
Justification
to use with this paragraph.
VTPAA_KEEP_PARA_WITH_NEXT ensures that this paragraph and the next one will not be split along page breaks.
VTPAA_KEEP_PARA_TOGETHER ensures that the entire paragraph will not be split along page breaks. In most cases, this will cause a paragraph capable of being split to appear at the top of the next page.
VTPAA_ALLOW_AUTO_HYPHENATION allows the paragraph to automatically hyphenate words that cross line breaks. If this flag is set, the entry VTPA_
hyphenationInfo
will store the
VisTextHyphenationInfo
to use when hyphenating words.
VTPAA_DISABLE_WORD_WRAP disables automatic word wrapping. Each line break will immediately wrap to next line without keeping words together.
VTPAA_PARA_NUMBER_TYPE stores the
VisTextParaType
for this paragraph. The actual paragraph number is stored in the VTPA_
startingParaNumber
entry. The paragraph number type in tandem with the paragraph number determines what number heading this paragraph will have.
VTPAA_DROP_CAP signifies that a this paragraph uses Drop Caps. If this flag is set, the
VisTextParaAttr
entry VTPA_
dropCapInfo
stores the
VisTextParaDropCapInfo
(see below).
VTPAA_KEEP_LINES specifies that this paragraph should make sure that beginning or ending lines of certain lengths should not be allowed to stand alone. If this flag is set, the
VisTextParaAttr
entry VTCA_
keepInfo
stores the
VisTextKeepInfo
(see below).
Code Display 10-9 VisTextHyphenationInfo

If the
VTPA_attributes
flag VTPAA_ALLOW_AUTO_HYPHENATION is set,
VisTextHyphenationInfo
stores the criteria to use when hyphenating words in VTPA_
hyphenationInfo
. If hyphenation is set, words will be automatically hyphenated using a Houghton-Mifflin engine.
VTHI_SHORTEST_WORD sets the shortest word-length (in character counts) to hyphenate. Words shorter than this character count will be wrapped to the next line.
VTHI_SHORTEST_PREFIX and VTHI_SHORTEST_SUFFIX set the shortest prefix and suffix to leave on a line after hyphenation. Prefixes or suffixes shorter than this character count will be tied to the main word and wrapped, if necessary.
Code Display 10-10 VisTextKeepInfo
typedef ByteFlags VisTextKeepInfo; #define VTKI_TOP_LINES 0xf0 #define VTKI_BOTTOM_LINES 0x0f
#define VTKI_TOP_LINES_OFFSET 4 #define VTKI_BOTTOM_LINES_OFFSET 0
If the VTPA_
attributes
flag VTPAA_KEEP_LINES is set,
VisTextKeepInfo
specifies the number of lines at the beginning and end of a paragraph that should not remain across page breaks. This prevents "widows" and "orphans"--single lines either at the end of one page or the beginning of another.
VTKI_TOP_LINES specifies the minimum number of lines at the beginning of a paragraph to be considered able to stand alone and not kept part of the main paragraph along a page break.
VTKI_BOTTOM_LINES specifies the minimum number of lines at the end of a paragraph to be considered able to stand alone and not kept part of the main paragraph along a page break.
For example, if VTKI_BOTTOM_LINES is set to three, then single or double lines will not be able to stand on their own at the top of a page, and either the orphans will be kept with the main paragraph or additional line(s) will be brought over from the preceding page to pad the next page.

If the VTPA_
attributes
flag VTPAA_DROP_CAP is set,
VisTextDropCapInfo
specifies the criteria to use when implementing Drop Caps. Drop Caps are currently not implemented in GEOS though they will be supported for later releases.
VTDCI_CHAR_COUNT sets the number of characters to capitalize at the start of the paragraph before resuming normal capitalization.
VTDCI_LINE_COUNT sets the number of lines to capitalize at the start of a paragraph before resuming normal capitalization.
Code Display 10-12 Tabs

typedef struct { VisTextParaAttr VTMPA_paraAttr; Tab VTMPA_tabs[VIS_TEXT_MAX_TABS]; } VisTextMaxParaAttr;
The
Tab
structure allows your paragraph to add custom tab stops to a paragraph. These tabs are in addition to any default tab stops that are defined in VTPA_
defaultTabs
. You may add up to 25 custom tabs to each paragraph. These tabs are added at the end of the
VisTextParaAttr
structure. Therefore, different paragraphs may have paragraph attributes of different lengths depending on the number of custom tabs in use by that paragraph.
You may decide that you do not need many of the features within the
VisTextParaAttr
structure in your paragraphs. If your text object is simple, you may want to use a set of default paragraph attributes provided in the text object library. These default attributes supersede the use of the
VisTextParaAttr
structure. All of these attributes will fit into a single word record of type
VisTextDefaultParaAttr
.
The
VisTextDefaultParaAttr
structure allows your text object to exhibit a
Justification
, a subset of default tabs, and left, right, and paragraph margins.
Code Display 10-13 VisTextDefaultParaAttr
typedef WordFlags VisTextDefaultParaAttr; #define VTDPA_JUSTIFICATION 0xc000 /* Justification */ #define VTDPA_DEFAULT_TABS 0x3000 /* VisTextDefaultTab */ #define VTDPA_LEFT_MARGIN 0x0f00 /* In units of half-inches */ #define VTDPA_PARA_MARGIN 0x00f0 /* In units of half-inches */ #define VTDPA_RIGHT_MARGIN 0x000f /* In units of half-inches */

typedef ByteEnum VisTextDefaultDefaultTab; #define VTDDT_NONE 0 #define VTDDT_HALF_INCH 1 #define VTDDT_INCH 2 #define VTDDT_CENTIMETER 3
The
VisTextDefaultDefaultTab
type is solely for use within a
VisTextDefaultParaAttr
record. The default tab stops provide either no tab stops (VTDDT_NONE) or tab stops every half-inch, centimeter, or inch. Note that no other application-defined tabs are allowed when using the default paragraph attributes.
The text object library also provides a macro to make the definition of the
VisTextParaAttr
structure simpler; there are also a few macros to aid in setting up justification and tab structures. These macros are listed in VisTextParaAttr Macros
. In many cases, these macros make the definition of paragraph style runs vastly easier.

Chapter 9: STxT and XML
Note for the reader
This chapter may offend xml enthusiast readers. Read at your own risk ;-)
The legend (**)
The origin of all evil: SGML.
It all began a long, long time ago, in a dark land called "computer science". Encodings thrived in that world. Sowing incompatibilities. Hindering communications. Laughing at those that were not like them. Some tried to be at peace with all of them.
And then they created the monster: SGML
The monster started saying what encoding it would keep. And the problem was solved. But it was too much of an effort. A lot of strange characters were necessary.  Unintelligible.
And they have reproduced. The world is full of its children. Little monsters that fill the Earth with these characters, hindering reading for humans. Only an elite handful can deal with the monsters. They are called "The computer techs". They are terrifying. Nobody wants to see them, but everyone needs them. They are obscure. They speak strange languages.
But the monsters are still here. They have mutated. They are now called xml’s. And people like them!!
...
But a small group of people met and decided that it could not be. They would create a champion. Someone who would illuminate them. Only one could remain.
The time for STxT had arrived.

We are inheriting an outdated format, with outdated encodings, with a very computerized way of thinking. And it is everywhere. And we still use it. And we want it to be there for everything... One minute! Stop! Is it necessary? If we didn't know anything about sgml and wanted to have a txt fast for parsing, with structure, with namespace, would we have created xml? I don’t think so. If we tell a child to make something up, I guess that they never would have created xml... they would have made something more natural... THEY WOULD HAVE CREATED STxT!
Well, we have more experience and we have learned. Let's create it!
Initial contact
I don't want to scare you, but STxT compared with xml, is:
- Better looking
- More compact
- Simpler
And you can also express the same things.
In other sections we will also see that:
- Automatic internationalization of semantics
- Faster parsing
- Everything is namespaces! And you can’t even see them!
Let's see an XML example, and we will compare it with STxT, for starters. It will be an easy example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>  <email> <from>John Smith</from> <to>Mery Adams</to> <cc>Keyla Brown</cc> <title>Project report</title> Hello Mery!! The book is finished!! </email>
Let’s see the STxT version:
# This is a line comment Email (www.example.com/email.stxt): From: John Smith To: Mery Adams Cc: Keyla Brown Title: Project report Body: Hello Mery!! The book is finished!!
I think a first feature stands out:
STxT looks much better than XML, and is understood better
Let's go for the size.
XML Length: 246
STxT Length: 183
Let's see when we compact fully
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <email><from>John Smith</from><to>Mery Adams</to><cc>Keyla Brown</cc> <title>Project report</title>Hello Mery!! The book is finished!!</email>
# This is a line comment Email(www.example.com/email.stxt): From:John Smith To:Mery Adams Cc:Keyla Brown Title:Project report Body:Hello Mery!! The book is finished!!
Minimum XML length: 225
Minimum STxT length: 172
If we compare without xml header or STxT namespace:
Minimum XML length: 186
Minimum STxT length: 144
I think it is clear that
STxT is more compact than XML
But in addition
STxT is more understandable than XML in a compacted state
or put another way
STxT keeps its understanding in a compacted state,
while XML does not
By the way, have we lost information? No, but what would happen if there were attributes? We will discuss it later. For now, believe me:
With STxT you can express the same things as with XML
Now let's try something fun... What does an XML document with a text node which in turn contains an XML, look like?
Let’s see it:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>  <email> <from>John Smith</from> <to>Mery Adams</to> <cc>Keyla Brown<cc> <title>Project report</title>  Hello Mery!! The book is finished!! <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>  <email> <from>John Smith</from> <to>Mery Adams</to> <cc>Keyla Brown<cc> <title>Project report</title> Hello Mery!! The book is finished!!  </email>
And in STxT:
Email (www.example.com/email.stxt): From: John Smith To: Mery Adams Cc: Keyla Brown Title: Project report Body: Hello Mery!! The book is finished!! <email> <from>John Smith</from> <to>Mery Adams</to> <cc>Keyla Brown<cc> <title>Project report</title> Hello Mery!! The book is finished!! </email>
I think nothing more needs be said. It is clear, but:
STxT is simpler than XML
XML attributes
Let's go for an example:
<example id="1" show="false"> Hello World </example>
Attributes in xml have always been controversial. What is an attribute and what should be a node? It is always difficult to decide. It is quite accepted that attributes are like node metadata, that is, they provide information but not about the content. There are cases in which this is acceptable, but (in my humble opinion) in most cases, they are a source of problems.
Another added problem is that everyone should keep in mind that attributes exist. This affects DTD's, XSD's, libraries, programmers... And what for? Actually they do not provide much. Only unnecessary complexity. Besides, this is STxT. Everything has a meaning, and everything is important.
STxT has no XML style attributes
This makes it BETTER, not worse. Sometimes, LESS IS MORE ;-)
The previous example in STxT would be:
example(...): id:1 show:false text:Hello World
In general, we can always make something of the type:
node_name: metadata: m1:xxx m2:xxx m3:xxx node2: node3:
DTD, XSD
XSD, DTD, and STxT
Let's talk about dtd’s and xsd's of xml. They are documents that tell us how a valid xml must be. They work well more or less, and each of them has its advantages and disadvantages. If you look around on the Internet you will see what I mean.
In short, DTD is simpler than XSD, is less powerful, and is written in a different language than XML. XSD is more powerful, more difficult to make and understand, but is written in XML, there is no need to learn another language.
And what happens with STxT? You should know it :-D It has the best. It is an STxT document. Integrated into the language itself. Powerful and easy to learn. Just like STxT itself ;-)
Where is it?
I'd like to see a typical xml problem disappear:
Where is the grammar in this document?
In STxT, EVERYTHING is on the web. When you want to create a document you have to be able to see automatically its definition. The grammar should always be accessible.
An STxT document has an associated grammar by definition.
Otherwise, it is not STxT
XSD of the XSD (*)
Anyone want to compare the xsd of an xsd? I've been tempted to include it in the book, but it would have taken up over 50 pages, and I'm not exaggerating :-D
I’ll leave you the link, in case someone wants to see it:
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd
Is there someone who understands it? Excuse me, excuse me. Is there someone who is not a superhero who understands it?
In contrast with STxT most people would not have any difficulties understanding the STxT of an STxT. I'm going to show it, although we have already seen it in Chapter 4:
ns_def(www.semantictext.info/namespace.stxt): n_def: type:NODE cn:ns_def a:namespace definition a:namespace_definition ch: cn:n_def n:+ n_def: type:NODE cn:n_def a:node definition a:node def a:node_def ch: cn:cn n:1 ch: cn:a n:* ch: cn:type n:1 ch: cn:dsc n:? ch: cn:ch n:* n_def: type:NODE cn:ch a:Child a:Child Node ch: cn:cn n:1 ch: cn:ns n:? ch: cn:n n:1 n_def: type:TEXT cn:cn a:name a:node a:node name a:canonical name n_def: type:TEXT cn:a a:al a:alias n_def: type:TEXT cn:type a:node type n_def: type:TEXT cn:n a:num a:occurs n_def: type:TEXT cn:dsc a:descrip a:description n_def: type:TEXT cn:ns a:namespace
That's it! Compare it! :-D
There’s no color!
Okay, it’s much simpler but, no one dares to read what comes out of the xsd's! Everything is much more complicated. With STxT we have sought simplicity. We like to do things by hand! Having an XML editor or reader should not be mandatory!
Parsers and validators
Does someone want to compare parsers and validators? There is no need to, one with STxT is MUCH faster and simpler to implement. Why? It’s very simple:
STxT has much fewer rules than XML
This makes everything easier. The parser code is faster. They have fewer errors. It is easier to maintain. To make. In addition, another advantage is that parsing and validating can be done simultaneously. With XML you must decide if you really have to validate the xsd... and where is it? Here we go again with the same problem as always. With STxT everything is much clearer. Any document has to have a definition of what it is like. But it is very easy to make. It doesn’t take any time. It's worthwhile. It is one of the great advantages of STxT.
Note: For fans of private information: if the STxT parser or editor has its own STxT grammars repository, it does not necessarily have to be visible on the web. I don't like it, I am against it, but there is nothing or no one that can prevent this. In fact, sometimes it will be needed, as I had to do with my own book before having the website up.
Namespaces
I have always hated XML namespaces. They are cumbersome, difficult to control, and usually tell us nothing.
Namespaces in STxT are completely different, as they are not difficult to make, they provide all the necessary information, and we do not lose the expressiveness that is achieved with XML. In fact, you can’t even see them! But they are always there, helping. Finishing the work.
In XML namespaces are a nuisance, provide complexity, and give little in return.
By the way, we have banished the http:// prefix from namespaces. It is no longer necessary, as this would imply that it is different if it is obtained with http:// than if it is done with https://. This makes no sense, what does make sense is that it is from //.
Future
I have been very honest with my entire analysis of XML vs STxT, but there is something we must not forget. XML has been around for quite a while. It is tested, it is used everywhere. It is a standard. STxT is new, it has just been born, and it has a long way to go.
But I think that it is worthwhile.

DeepSurfels is a novel 3D representation for geometry and appearance information that combines planar surface primitives with voxel grid representation for improved scalability and rendering quality.
We approach the problem of online appearance reconstruction from RGB-D images with our novel DeepSurfel representation that leverages the implicit grid representation to support flexible topologies and 2D surface-aligned feature maps to encode high-frequency appearance information and improve scalability to large scenes.
We further present an end-to-end trainable online appearance fusion pipeline that fuses information provided by RGB images into the proposed scene representation and is trained using self-supervision imposed by the reprojection error with respect to the input images.
DeepSurfel representation is well-suited for online updates of appearance information and is compatible with classical texture mapping as well as learning-based approaches.

American Beauty 4 Stars (Out of 4) Reviewed by Mac VerStandig<EMAIL_ADDRESS>http://www.moviereviews.org September 5, 1999 USA Release Date - September 24, 1999
American Beauty is a sitcom on the surface, but a remarkable social commentary laced with dark humor and thorough character development can be found just below. Kevin Spacey gives a performance, in what may be one of the great films of our time, that will surely garner him an Academy Award nomination.
 "Both my wife and daughter think I'm this gigantic loser" he quips. His boss is about to give him the axe. His marriage to Carolyn (Annette Bening), a real estate agent, is just for show. His daughter, Jane (Thora Birch) is experiencing more that just the typical teenage resentment of her father, as she rightfully points out to him "You've barely even spoken to me for months."
Lester's answer is to make a drastic change in his lifestyle. He blackmails his boss out of nearly $60,000, buys the car that he has always wanted, develops a secret crush on his daughter's best friend, starts smoking dope, and gets a job that he truly enjoys: flipping burgers at a fast food restaurant.
Before long, Jane takes a liking to her new neighbor and classmate, Ricky (Wes Bentley), whose quiet and deeply observant habits test the attention span of Angela Hayes, Jane's best friend. As Jane and Ricky develop into a couple, Angela fades away into a world of infinite loneliness.
The role of Lester Burnham is an extraordinarily tough one. It exhibits feelings of pedophilia, obsession, and carelessness; just to name a few. Kevin Spacey does it all, thus creating a believable character and delivering an amazing performance that is one of the finest in memory. Annette Bening and the rest of the cast all do a sound job and play their parts credibly.
The title of the film is equally as thought provoking as its subjects. Is "American Beauty" a reference to the rose garden which Carolyn cherishes? Could it be Angela Hayes, the blond haired and blue eyed cheerleader that lives in constant fear or being ordinary? Most likely it is a reference to what director Sam Mendes and writer Alan Ball are trying to show is the impossible dream.
Two types of people will see this movie. One will see it as a humorous, out-of-the-ordinary sitcom. For them it is entertainment worth the price of admission. The other group will not only see those qualities, but the deep symbolic themes that lie between the lines. For them the two-hours will be priceless.

Bitcoin is a digital currency created in January 2009. It follows the ideas set out in a whitepaper by the mysterious and pseudonymous developer Satoshi Nakamoto, whose true identity has yet to be verified. Bitcoin offers the promise of lower transaction fees than traditional online payment mechanisms and is operated by a decentralized authority, unlike government-issued currencies.
Like Bitcoin, Ethereum is a distributed public blockchain network. Ethereum focuses on running the programming code of any decentralized application. In the Ethereum, instead of mining for bitcoin, miners work to earn Ether, a type of crypto token that fuels the network. Beyond a tradeable cryptocurrency, Ether is also used by application developers to pay for transaction fees and services on the Ethereum network.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a hard forked version of the original Bitcoin. It is similar to bitcoin with regards to its protocol; Proof of Work SHA-256 hashing, 21,000,000 supply, same block times and reward system. However two main differences are the the blocksize limits, as of August 2017 Bitcoin has a 1MB blocksize limit whereas BCH proposes 8MB blocks.
Ethereum Classic is an attempt at keeping the Ethereum blockchain unaltered by the part of the community that opposed the hard fork and the return of The DAO funds. It started trading on Poloniex and is getting more and more traction.The Ethereum Classic mission statement is: "We believe in decentralized, censorship-resistant, permissionless blockchains. We believe in the original vision of Ethereum as a world computer you can't shut down, running irreversible smart contracts."

Your mission is to build an automatic trading bot to buy and sell Bitcoins to maximize returns in a market. Your initial investment is $100,000.
Suppose a hypothetical market for trading bitcoins is governed by the following principles:
Your job is to implement the logic of this trading bot. This bot will observe the twitter stream and identify relevant keywords to make trading decision. There is only one decision to make—to trade or not to trade.
Implement the function below in bot.js
.
function decideWhetherOrNotToTrade(){
return Math.random() < 0.1
}
The default logic of this function is to randomly decide to trade every one out of ten times. Replace the code with a more reasonable logic. You do know what keywords are influential. But you don’t know which are positive and which are negative. Your challenge is to guess or estimate them.
A history of about 10000 tweets and prices is provided for testing purposes. While you are developing the code for your bot, you can test its performance against this history data to see how much profit it wold have generated.
Whenever you are ready, you can test your bot on the live streaming data.
At the end of the hackathon, we will organize an informal contest to see whose bot is able to make the most profits on live data.
The team members who contributed to this hackathon are:

Background: I had used salvia a couple times, smoked marijuana, and drank alcohol. This had been the extent of my drug use till the amanitas. The amanitas and salvia combo was no doubt the most terrifying ordeal of my life.
 I ate around 10-15g of the mushroom straight, with candy in between bites to lessen the bad taste. We headed to a party and after an hour or so I felt a bit dizzy and figured that's all that would come of it. After getting bored with it, me and a friend went into the bathroom to smoke some salvia. By this time I was sweating, and shaking at the same time. I now see it was from the mushrooms. Anyways I managed to take a deep hit of the salvia and hand the bowl to my friend. This was my first time with 10x.
Experience: I remember the toilet fading away and me crawling into nothing. Next thing I knew I was clawling at the bathroom wall and I was in the tub. I was yelling about getting to the bridge on the other side. Everything I saw was geometrical and cartoon like. Soon my high let off, but I could still feel the salvia 'weight' leaning against me.
This is where the mushrooms started to kick in. I lay on the ground and closed my eyes. I watched lines of color pulse to some sort of energy and I felt I was the center of it all. People asked me questions that I could repond too but I kept my eyes closed and was in a trance state.
The next part of the trip was the most horrific experience of my life. I found myself caught in a neverending loop of thought. (I found the same ordeal in another report, interesting) each time the thought would cycle, it would speed up. I felt I was in some sort of hell, destined to experience this loop forever.
Then it ended and I heard music (later to find it was from the tv) I could name the song right now.  It was my life. The life I had failed. Frame by frame, backwards. My hell was to experience my life moment by moment and to feel all the pain I had caused and had felt. I saw my dad looking over my dead body, I tried to call his name but my voice was weak and he could not hear me. I felt helpless, lost, forsaken. I then realized I was not only to repeat my life moment by moment, but everyone on earth. Everyone that had ever lived. I was to experience every pain of any human being that had ever lived. This was terrifying to the greatest extent. This was my hell, I had failed my test of life and deserved it.
Then I came back to 'reality'. I called the name of the lord. I cried for God. I moaned I was sorry and to take me back. I thought it was my second chance (was it my second chance?) I ran to the hallway to tell people of the lord and his mercy. No on was around so I ran back to the room and made my friend sit down.  I talked to him for around a half hour with little response from him. I told him I was an angel and that my whole purpose was to change him and that the lord was the only way. This life is a test and the worldy things so important to us now are nothing in the next life.
I laid back down hoping I had passed my second chance and not knowing if I would awake in the morning.
I did

BUG LIST! Also: the Xenimus meshes, fully textured.
Posted: Sat Jan 05, 2008 11:31 am
Ok, so if you've found any problems with the new editor, let me know here! These are ones that I've found and are corrected in this patch download (just download the EXE file and overwrite the one you installed. I could make a new installer, but that seems like a waste since this is such a small thing.
http://www.unseenstudios.com/volucris/d ... editor.exe
And now, the Xenimus meshes! This download includes MDJ meshes (and PNG images) taken from Xenimus, and a file that sets up a project using them. Beware! If you try to use the meshes without the new editor, the editor will crash. To solve this, erase the entries with 'null' textures in the Skin "mdj-skin".

min
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
min — 找出最小值
说明
mixed min ( array $values )
mixed min ( mixed $value1 , mixed $value2 [, mixed $... ] )
如果仅有一个参数且为数组，min() 返回该数组中最小的值。如果给出了两个或更多参数,
min() 会返回这些值中最小的一个。
Note:
PHP 会将非数值的 string 当成 0，但如果这个正是最小的数值则仍然会返回一个字
符串。如果多个参数都求值为 0 且是最小值，min() 会返回按字母表顺序最小的字符
串，如果其中没有字符串的话，则返回数值的 0。
参数
values
包含值的数组。
value1
Any comparable value.
value2
Any comparable value.
...
Any comparable value.
返回值
min() 返回参数中数值最小的。
范例
Example #1 min() 用法的例子
参见
• max() - 找出最大值
• count() - 计算数组中的单元数目或对象中的属性个数

===============================================================================
min() (and max()) on DateTime objects compares them like dates (with timezone

It is possible to use it with booleans, there is is just one thing, which you
need to keep in mind, when evaluating using the non strict comparison (==)
anyting that is not bool false, 0 or NULL is consideret true eg.:
(5 == true) = true;
(0 == true) = false;
true is also actually anything else then 0, false and null. However when true
is converted to a string or interger true == 1, therefore when sorting true =
1. But if true is the maximum number bool true is returned. so to be sure, if
you only want to match if true is the max number remember to use the strict
comparison operater ===
===============================================================================
A way to bound a integer between two values is:
function bound($x, $min, $max)
{
return min(max($x, $min), $max);
}
which is the same as:
$tmp = $x;
if($tmp < $min)
{
$tmp = $min;
}
if($tmp > $max)
{
$tmp = $max;
}
$y = $tmp;
So if you wanted to bound an integer between 1 and 12 for example:
Input:
$x = 0;
echo bound(0, 1, 12).'
';
$x = 1;
echo bound($x, 1, 12).'
';
$x = 6;
echo bound($x, 1, 12).'
';
$x = 12;
echo bound($x, 1, 12).'
';
$x = 13;
echo bound($x, 1, 12).'
';
Output:
1
1
6
12
12
===============================================================================
I've modified the bugfree min-version to ignore NULL values (else it returns
0).
===============================================================================
Regarding boolean parameters in min() and max():
(a) If any of your parameters is boolean, max and min will cast the rest of
them to boolean to do the comparison.
(b) true > false
(c) However, max and min will return the actual parameter value that wins the
comparison (not the cast).
Here's some test cases to illustrate:
1. max(true,100)=true
2. max(true,0)=true
3. max(100,true)=100
4. max(false,100)=100
5. max(100,false)=100
6. min(true,100)=true
7. min(true,0)=0
8. min(100,true)=100
9. min(false,100)=false
10. min(100,false)=false
11. min(true,false)=false
12. max(true,false)=true
===============================================================================
If NAN is the first argument to min(), the second argument will always be
returned.
If NAN is the second argument, NAN will always be returned.
The relationship is the same but inverted for max().
Returns:
0
NAN
NAN
0
===============================================================================
I tested this with max(), but I suppose it applies to min() too: If you are
working with numbers, then you can use:
$a = ($b < $c) ? $b : $c;
which is somewhat faster (roughly 16%) than
$a = min($b, $c);
I tested this on several loops using integers and floats, over 1 million
iterations.
I'm running PHP 4.3.1 as a module for Apache 1.3.27.
===============================================================================
Be very careful when your array contains both strings and numbers. This code
works strange (even though explainable) way:
var_dump(max('25.1.1', '222', '99'));
var_dump(max('2.1.1', '222', '99'));
===============================================================================
NEVER EVER use this function with boolean variables !!!
Or you'll get something like this: min(true, 1, -2) == true;
Just because of:
min(true, 1, -2) == min(min(true,1), -2) == min(true, -2) == true;
You are warned !
===============================================================================
Here is function can find min by array key
===============================================================================
If you want min to return zero (0) when comparing to a string, try this:
===============================================================================
A condensed version (and possible application) of returning an array of array
keys containing the same minimum value:
300,
'player2' => 301,
'player3' => 302,
'player4' => 301,
...
);
// search for array keys with min() value
foreach($player_score_totals as $playerid => $score)
if($score == min($player_score_totals)) array_push($min_keys, $playerid);
print_r($min_keys);
?>
===============================================================================
When using a variable with an array that has a list of numbers, put just the
variable in min(). Don't use integer index's. Seems pretty straight forward
now, but I wasn't used to just putting down the variable for an array in
functions.
===============================================================================
min() can be used to cap values at a specific value. For instance, if you're
grading papers and someone has some extra credit, but that shouldn't make it
to the final score:
$pts_possible = 50;
$score = 55;
// Percent will equal 1 if $score/$pts_possible is greater than 1
$percent = min($score/$pts_possible,1);
===============================================================================
empty strings '' will also return false or 0, so if you have something like
$test = array('', 1, 5, 8, 44, 22);
'' will be returned as the lowest value
if you only want to get the lowest number, you'll have to resort to the old
fashioned loop
// default minimum value
$minVal = 100;
foreach ($test as $value) {
if (is_numeric($value) && $value < $minVal) {
$minVal = $value;
}

The Texas Instruments Sensor Tag is meant to help developers begin working with Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) devices. Bluetooth LE allows devices to communicate without having to complete the pairing step which is normally required when using Bluetooth. Bluetooth LE is ideal for retrieving data from sensors that are showing up in more and more devices in our homes and on our person. While the Sensor Tag has some practical uses, it is really meant to help developers learn how to build apps using these technologies.
The demo apps included in this site are meant to show you have to leverage the data produced from the Sensor Tag. However the first step in leveraging the data is retrieving the data from the Sensor Tage itself. There are various ways of doing this but they all involve using Bluetooth LE, so the first thing you need is a Bluetooth LE enabled device that is connected to the internet. This could be your computer, mobile phone, tablet, Raspberry PI, or Beaglebone Black. Most newer computers, tablets, and mobile phones should be able to talk Bluetooth LE. If you are using a Raspberry PI or Beaglebone Black you will need a Bluetooth LE USB adapter.
I chose to use a
If you want to use a Rasberry PI, there are plenty of articles out there describing how.
Before being able to connect the Sensor Tag to the Beaglebone you will need to install some software. SSH into the Beaglebone by running ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and run the following commands.
$ apt-get install bluez $ apt-get install libbluetooth-dev
If you want to use OSX to connect to the Sensor Tag you need to run one command in a Terminal window.
$ sudo nvram bluetoothHostControllerSwitchBehavior="never"You will need to restart your Mac after running this command.
After you have your device, you need to connect to the Sensor Tag. How you do this depends on the device you are using. If you plan on using a mobile phone or tablet, TI has provided some sample code for iOS and Android that should help you out. If you are going to connect to the device from a computer, a light weight programming language like Node.js is usually a good idea, especially if you are connecting to a Raspberry PI or BeagleBone Black.
After your device is able to access the data from the Sensor Tag you are probably going to want to publish the data somewhere so your apps can access it. Luckily there is a standard protocol for sharing data of this type. It is called MQTT. MQTT is a lightweight, machine-to-machine connectivity protocol, and functions much like other pub-sub protocols. IBM has provided an MQTT server we can use as part of its Internet of Things Cloud (IoT). Connecting to it is easy using any MQTT library. For details on how to connect to the IBM IoT cloud you can follow these instructions.
In my case I chose to use Node.js on my Beaglebone Black. There is a Node.js library that makes connecting to and retrieving data from the Sensor Tag really easy. There is also an MQTT library that we can use to connect to the IBM IoT Cloud. The code to connect to the Sensort Tag and publish to the IoT cloud can be found in this GitHub repo. You can clone the repo by running the following command on your Beaglebone Black.
$ git cloneBefore you run the code you will need to register the application in the IoT Cloud. To do this you need to register for the beta. After you sign up you can register a device, all you need is the MAC address. The result of registering the device will give you some properties you will need to connect to the IoT cloud. The properties will look something like this.
org=someorg type=atype id=macaddress auth-method=token auth-token=secrettokenThe Sensor Tag code will read these properties from a properties file. Create a new file called config.properties in the publish directory and copy the properties into the file and save it.
When you run this code, by running node sensor-tag.js, you will see the Mac address of the computer you are running on printed to the console and then a message indicating the program is waiting for a connection from a Sensor Tag. If you press the button on the side of your Sensor Tag to turn it on you should see the program indicate it has found the Sensor Tag and print out some basic properties about it. Once you see that, data should be published to the IoT Cloud.
To quickly see the data being published you can head over to Bluemix and create a Node-RED instance connected to the IoT Cloud. Instructions on how to do this can be found here. Once you have the Node-RED app up and running should be able to see all the data coming from your Sensor Tag in the debug tab.
The Node-RED flow prints out all topics published from the MAC address, however if you look closely at the Node code you will notice that we are actually publishing a bunch of different topics allowing applications to consume only the data they want. Below is a table describing the topics published and what topics you can subscribe to in order to listen for specific data from the Sensor Tag.
| Publish Topic | Subscription Topic | Values | Frequency |

'Having a laugh' Birmingham City fans react to £6m transfer rumour
Birmingham City latest | All the latest Blues news and views from BirminghamLive as fans respond to Blues being linked with this in-form Championship striker
by Brian Dick, https://www.facebook.com/blueswriterbriandick/?fref=tsBirmingham City have been linked with a January swoop for Burnley striker Nahki Wells.
The Sun (November 3 edition) claims Blues could look to take Wells from his loan with QPR as his parent club look to cash in on the player.
Wells is in the final few months of his Clarets’ contract but according to Sun journalist Alan Nixon, Burnley have an option to extend for another season.
And they could also be looking to cash in with the suggestion that Blues could launch a £6million bid for the 29-year-old when the window reopens having had a nibble at him in the summer.
We asked Blues fans what they thought.

You can follow our Blues reporter Brian Dick on Twitter, and his email address is<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Andrew Tetsell: Gayle all the way for me, hes proven and a far superior player. We can obviously afford him as we agreed wages with the player, only for Newcastle to increase price past 12 million. The original deal was worth between 10-12 million so go again might get him nearer 10 million now as his contract is up in June. If not Gayle then ivan toney, young and hungry and would cost half the funds of Gayle.
Stephen Massey: Only Gayle for me with our funds. He’s a proven goal scorer and you’ve only got to listen to west Brom fans go on about him. He would totally change the look of our team in the threat up front . Our problem is he will be wanted by many clubs come January so it’s wise to keep the options available. No1 Gayle ,don’t mess about
Cody Cole: Not really gonna improve the squad or have a big impact we need to be more ambitious rather than looking at average players
John Palmer: Rather pay the extra for Gayle if we’re willing to spend 6mil
Steven Cale: Dwight Gayle for me if we can afford him, if not seek a younger pacy forward who can develop and have a big resale value in a couple of years. Cheap options abroad I’m sure of it.
Mark Ivory: Younger hungry player up front is what we need better for the money about than wells 6 mill to pricey
Andrew Barrie: Nope.. Go get Ivan Toney or Mo Eisa from Peterborough
Jordan Bohemia: I think he’d definitely do well for us but I wouldn’t pay £6m for him no way.
Danny Puliuca: Ivan Toney all day long
Paul Harris: Never been prolific Goalscorer, not for me
Matt Legg: Scores goals and would be useful, but 6 million for a 29 year old. I’d hope there are better signings
Stephen Cannon: I like Blues to go out and buy a younger striker
Marc Aspery: Could get Dwight Gayle for similar money
Tom Devey: Ivan toney or Gayle
Anthony Bourke: He knows where the goal is
Jez Whitehead: 6 millions alot.... hes got 7 in 10. Id pay up an go in for gayle
@IMRMEZZI: Wells for 6 million i hope someone is having a laugh with that. Never been a proflic goalscorer and at 29 christ that’s alot of money. I’d rather have Vydra from Burnley
@cdbcfc_: Not sure about Nakhi Wells, been a bit hit and miss over his career. £6m seems a lot for a 29 year old striker.
@BCFCEVERYTHING: A player of Nahki Wells’ quality is exactly what we need, as well as a new goalkeeper and I think we’re sorted.
@JJJenkinson16: Nakhi Wells. Yes please. £6M seems very questionable considering his contract situation but goalscorers cost big money these days.
@mdaly316: In a heartbeat
@Bill_Billingham: Seems expensive but I would take him
@KieranBcfc89: Should have pushed harder for him In the summer Instead of wasting time on Puscas.
@dinoarmenis89: 6 million ? Having a laugh ain’t you ?!
@WadrupR: For 6 mil !!! better options around
@ANDYBCFC84: Not for 6mil with 6 montha to run on jis deal and apparochin 30. Would.prefer that money to go on either the 2 lads from peterboro.
@stuartroberts18: No chance. 1 in 7 last term, nowhere near prolific enough

@Id
Mark a property as the @Id
property.
@Entity
public class Contact {
@Id
long id;
...
}
@GeneratedValue
When we annotate a property with @Id
Ebean will automatically assign an appropriate
Id generator
if the type is a number type or UUID type
.
That is, with Ebean it is effectively redundant to also add the @GeneratedValue
annotation.
@Id
long id;
// ... is effectively the same as
@Id @GeneratedValue
long id;
@Identity
Ebean additionally has an @Identity annotation
when we want to use to specify the starts value
, cache value
and
generated by default|always
options for database identity or sequence.
We want to use this to specifically set the cache
option when the associated
table is expected to get a high load of inserts and we want to let databases that support it
to have higher than normal id caching to reduce contention around generated id values/sequences.
Postgres, Oracle and NuoDB all support setting the identity cache option. The downside to larger
cache for id values is the potential for larger gaps in the id values if the database is restarted.
@Id @Identity(start=10000, cache=500)
long id;
We can also specify @Identity
on the class - typically when the id property
is inherited from a MappedSuperclass.
@Entity
@Identity(start=10000, cache=500)
public class Contact {
@Id
long id;
...
}
UUID
If the @Id type is UUID
then Ebean will automatically assign an appropriate Id generator
to that property.
// an appropriate UUID based Id generator
// is automatically assigned
@Id
UUID id;
UUID and @GeneratedValue
If we have a UUID
that is NOT the @Id we can add @GeneratedValue
and
then Ebean will assign a appropriate UUID generator to it.
/** The Id property using DB Identity or Sequence */
@Id @GeneratedValue
private long id;
/** Alternate unique UUID property */
@GeneratedValue @Column(unique = true)
private UUID uid;
String
If the @Id type is String
then Ebean assumes that the id value is supplied by the
application. No Id generator is assigned to the Id property in this case.
@Id
String code;
An example of this could be ISO Country codes used as a primary key for Country.
Entities with no @Id property
We can model entity beans without any @Id
property. The 2 cases for this are
when modelling views and when modelling tables that are "insert only" representing a log
of events or similar.
Views
When the entity bean is modelled to a @View
often the view will not have
column(s) that equates to a primary key.
Example - entity based on a view with @Id property
@Entity
@View(name = "machine_stats")
public class MachineStats {
@ManyToOne
Machine machine;
LocalDate date;
@Sum // equivalent to @Aggregation("sum(totalKms)")
long totalKms;
@Sum
long hours;
@Max
BigDecimal rate;
@Aggregation("sum(cost)")
BigDecimal totalCost;
@Aggregation("max(totalKms)")
BigDecimal maxKms;
Tables with no primary key
When modelling a "append only" table where we do not need a primary key
then we can desire not having an @Id
property and no actual primary key.
We can desire this when we want to avoid the cost of the primary key index (that the
application will never need or use).
For Postgres we would often use table partitioning for this type of "append only" events
type table via @DbPartition
.
Example - append only table with no primary key / no @Id property
/**
* Append only table with no Id property, no primary key (no primary key index).
*/
@DbPartition(mode = DAY, property = "eventTime")
@Entity
@Table(name = "machine_log")
public class MachineLog {
@Index
@NotNull
protected Instant eventTime;
@DbForeignKey(noConstraint = true)
@ManyToOne(optional = false)
protected Machine machine;
...
Custom Id Generator
There is support for registering and using a custom Id generator.
1. Implement io.ebean.config.IdGenerator
public class ModUuidGenerator implements IdGenerator {
@Override
public Object nextValue() {
return ModUUID.newShortId();
}
@Override
public String getName() {
return "shortUid";
}
}
2. Register with ServerConfig
We register the IdGenerator with ServerConfig by using addClass()
or add(IdGenerator idGenerator)
or setIdGenerators(List
.
Note that if you are using classpath scanning to find entity beans that this will also automatically find implementations of IdGenerator and automatically register them so in this case you don't need to register the IdGenerator manually with ServerConfig.
3. @GeneratedValue
We can then tell Ebean to use our custom IdGenerator by using the @GeneratedValue
with
the generator being the name of our custom IdGenerator.

Database platform
All the supported databases use either Identity
or Sequences
(or allow both)
and Ebean will choose the appropriate Id generation strategy based on the database platform.
| Database | Strategy |
|---|---|
| H2 | Identity (also supports sequences) |
| Postgres | Identity (as serial, also supports sequences) |
| MySql | Identity |
| Oracle | Sequences (also supports Identity) |
| DB2 | Identity (also supports sequences) |
| SQL Server | Identity |
| SQLite | Identity |
| SqlAnywhere | Identity |

Boris unveils Brexit manifesto for U.K.
He vows £23.5 bn worth of tax cuts and public spending during 2020-2024 period
by AFPBritish Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Sunday unveiled his Conservative Party’s manifesto, pledging to get Brexit done and “unleash the potential of the whole country”.
Having taken over a minority administration in July and been unable to speed his EU divorce deal through Parliament, Mr. Johnson is seeking a clear victory at the December 12 snap election.
Mr. Johnson is promising to bring back his Brexit deal to Parliament before December 25 if the Conservatives are returned to power. “As families sit down to carve up their turkeys this Christmas, I want them to enjoy their festive-season free from the seemingly unending Brexit box-set drama,” Mr. Johnson said. “The Conservative manifesto, which I’m proud to launch today, will get Brexit done and allow us to move on and unleash the potential of the whole country,” he said.
‘Oven-ready’ Brexit deal
He claims the treaty is “oven-ready” and good to go — as long as he can get a majority.
He insists the deal will allow Britain to regain control over its laws, money and immigration policy.
Mr. Johnson has blasted chief rival, left-wing Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, for his strategy in refusing to recommend either his own proposed Brexit deal or staying in the EU.
He promised £23.5 billion worth of tax cuts and public spending between 2020 and 2024. The party is pledging it will not raise the three main taxes — income tax, sales tax and national insurance contributions to State benefits — in what it branded a triple tax lock.
Other measures include more money for childcare support, energy efficiency measures, skills retraining and road upgrades.

From tsardom to empire
The future Peter the Great was born Pyotr Alexeyevich Romanov in Moscow to Alexis I of Russia and his mother Nataliya Naryshkina. Peter was the 14th of Alexis' 16 children and therefore an unlikely heir to the Russian throne.
Alexis I died in January 1676 sparking off a chain of events that would eventually see Peter installed as Peter I of Russia. For the time being however, the crown passed to his sickly half brother, the new Feodor III.
Feodor's many illnesses saw him eventually succumb at the tender age of 20, but there was one final male heir blocking Peter's path to the crown.
Peter’s half brother Ivan was next in line and was sickly like Feodor but unlike his predecessor, the boy who was to become Ivan V, was also of infirm mind. As a result, he was jointly crowned along with the new Peter I of Russia. The act was to bring an end to the Moscow Uprising and Ivan's puppet reign served as an appeasement.
Ivan was beset by serious physical and mental disabilities and in February 1696 he died. Ivan ruled with Peter in name only, and his death saw his half brother assume sole Tsardom at the age of 23.
The 'European tour' was a notorious trip undertaken by Peter and his delegation in an attempt to win aid and assistance from Western European monarchs.
Peter had dreamt of modernising Russia in line with other countries in Europe and as he travelled with his 'Grand Embassy' he hoped to secure help in battling the Grand Ottoman Empire. It was a largely futile quest.
After securing peace with the Ottoman Empire, Peter turned his attentions to gaining territory in the Baltic states. Thus began the Great Northern War which was to last for twenty-one years.
It was a long and bitter conflict but ultimately Russia was successful and established itself as a major European power. Ultimately, this was the defining point of Peter's reign.
Peter captured the Swedish fortress of Nyenskans and subsequently laid down the first stone for a new city.
Work continued until St. Petersburg was founded and named in the ruler's honour.
Peter had never enjoyed the best of health and in the winter of 1723 he began to suffer problems with a blocked urinary tract. In an emergency operation, the blockage was cleared and some four pounds of urine were removed but Peter never truly recovered.
Peter had fallen ill with Uremia at the beginning of 1725 and began to fall into a coma. He passed away on the February 8th, with his autopsy revealing that his bladder was infected with gangrene. It was an unremarkable end to the life of a man who arguably the greatest of all Russian leaders.

21 November 2006
From 1 September to 8 November 2006, 231 suspected cases and 16 deaths of meningococcal disease have been reported in Greater Yei County, Central Equatorial State of South Sudan.
The epidemic threshold was crossed in this county during the last week of October. Five cerebral spinal fluid specimens have tested positive for Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A by latex test.
An outbreak investigation was conducted by the Ministry of the Central Equatorial State with the support of WHO's Early Warning and Response Network (EWARN) team and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A national multisectoral task force established earlier this year which includes county health authorities, UNICEF, WHO and nongovernmental organizations is coordinating the outbreak response.
Enhanced surveillance, case management, and social mobilization are underway, as well as the preparation of a vaccination campaign targeting c.294,000 people in the affected area.


endometrial tissue is present outside the uterine cavity
causing cyclic sypmtoms
reduced fertility
‘working diagnosis’ - patient’s symptoms + evaluation of risk-factors
laparoscopy == definitive
diagnosis
-
presence of endometrial tissue, glands and stroma outside uterine cavity

-
Analgesia
-
NSAIDs
- all have similar efficacy

medroxyprogesterone 10-100mg/day
-
10mg tds 90d
-
day1 cycle
-
-
norethisterone 10-45mg/day

5mg bd for 6/12
-
start d1-5 of cycle
-
-
suppress HPO
- inhibit ovulation
-
also direct effect on endometrium
- atrophy both normal endometrium and endometriotic lesions
-
generally well tolerated
-
-
L - IUS
- effective even after 3 years of use
-
-
Gonadotropin releaing hormone analogues
-
induce medical menopause
-
secondary care
-
implant or injection
-
associated with BMD decrease
-
add back therapy
- concurrently add progestin + bisphosphonate or oestrogen
-
-
Fertility (infertility)
-
not well understood
-
inflammation, structural abnormalties, endometriomas of ovaries, alterations spem-oocyte interaction, decreased endometrial receptivity
-
not possible to differentiate between women with endo who will experience decrease fertility those who will retain normal levels of fertility
-
Surgey = most common therapy
-
Assited fertility treatments likley to be beneficial
-
Cochrane review: no increase in fertility after treatmetn with hormonal medicines
-
medroxyprogesterone and some androgenic may have lasting effects of ovulation suppression
- not more than a few months
surgical
-
highly effetive for symptoms and pain reduciton
-
increase fertility in sub-fertile women
-
recurrence rates are high
- 50% redevelop symptoms within 5yrs of surgery
-
two cateogries
-
suregry with preservation of fertility
-
surgery if fertility not desired
-
complications
