Hello World! I 'm Erika Castillo a photographer originally from Venezuela.
I was born in Venezuela on 1996. For me photography is my refuge when there are moments of stress, my way of expressing myself, capturing beauty, capturing unique moments and portray reality in my on way.
Have you ever heard the term “Instagram-worthy”?
Well I kinda love/hate the term because I believe that if you love photography, it’s doesn’t matter from which side of the lenses you are, all your photos can be a work of art and therefore “Instagram-worthy” after all, the beauty it’s in the eye of the beholder.So for all those photography lover out there I decided to create this space where not only I can share my work whit y’all but also if you are interested in working with me you can contact me as well.
And if you’ve ever feel like your photos are not “Instagram-worthy” don’t hesitate to contact me so I can show you a different perspective.

OSCAR A film review by Edwin Jahiel Copyright 1996 Edwin Jahiel
OSCAR (1991) ** 3/4 . Directed by John Landis. Written by Michael Barrie and Jim Mulholland, from a play by Claude Magnier. Photography, Marc Ahlberg. Music, Elmer Bernstein. Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Peter Riegert, Chazz Palminteri, Joey Travolta, Vincent Spano, Ornella Muti, Don Ameche, Yvonne DeCarlo, Martin Ferrero, Harry Shearer, Elizabeth Barondes, Jim Mulholland, Tim Curry, Kirk Douglas, William Atherton, Marisa Tomei, Ken Howard , Richard Romanus, et al. A Touchstone release. 100 min. Rated PG.
Would you believe Sylvester Stallone in a non-violent comedy? Would you believe Yvonne DeCarlo back in circulation? Or a stutterer played by Eddie Bracken who had retired in 1953? Would you believe such an Italian-American, Italian (the enchanting Ornella Muti) or Italianate gathering of movie eagles--well, mostly eaglets, canaris and sparrows--with some Anglos thrown in for balance?
As befits a farce of this type, the parts, from medium to tiny, are shared. No one has a real lion's share, not even Stallone. Everyone seems to be having a good time. But for a long stretch, that good time is too good for the good of the movie.
"Oscar" has nothing to do with the statuette. Superficially it could be called a screwball comedy, but it is really something different, a transplanted, Americanized adaptation of a French "vaudeville" that ran endlessly, years ago, on the Paris stage.
The "vaudeville" is a special type of French farce and has nothing to do with British or American vaudeville. Georges Feydeau (1862-1921) was the undisputed master of the genre. The original French "Oscar" was written by Claude Magnier--not an undisputed master but still quite a skillful plot-maker. Its American adapters did nicely too, except for some unfunny excesses, e.g. baptizing Stallone "Angelo (Snaps) Provolone." Essentially though, they caught the spirit of the play and mostly kept to its "classical" format. Wisely, they did not try to air it out and make it much more than filmed theater with unity of place (the Provolone town house) and time (under one day).
Provolone is an underworld boss in the early Thirties Golden Age of gangsterism. Having promised his dying Papa Kirk Douglas to go straight, he tries hard. On the day Snaps is about to turn into a legit banker everything happens. Cops stalk his house. Bankers plan to defraud him. His accountant Anthony asks for the hand of Lisa, Snaps's daughter, while telling his employer that he's been robbing him all along.
Lisa lies to Snaps that she's pregnant by the chauffeur Oscar, now gone, because she wants to marry--anybody will do so long as she can get out of the Provolone place. Can you blame her? Yes you can, because Lisa has as little class as anyone around her.
The girl that Anthony loves turns out to be Theresa, who pretended she was Miss Provolone. Then come more mistaken identities in a madhouse of entrances, exits, announcements, revelations, engagements, separations, rival gangsters, visitors, and, of course, the props of farce. Here those are three identical black bags that play musical chairs as they get endlessly switched . Respectively they contain jewelry, greenbacks and the underwear of the former maid--who will marry the former fiance of Snaps's daughter.
The situation is madly promising. The execution is maddeningly wrong, at least for a long time, with troubles ranging from the direction to the pacing, from the acting to some of the lines. Snaps, trying to be a gentleman and to eliminate both firearms and gangster parlance from his mob --sorry, from his household staff--keeps rebuking them: "Don't call me Boss." "Sorry Boss" is the knee-jerk reaction. Not once but again and again and again.
A 19th century thespian said on his deathbed: "Don't feel sorry for me. Dying is easy, comedy is hard." Farce is even harder. The secret is to play it cool, to underplay, to have the text carry the actors and not vice versa.
"Oscar" however makes wrong moves from the start, but mercifully not to the finish. It goes from loud and raucous notes to dead spots. The actors mug with huge gesticulations, as if parodying a bad silent movie. They shout in unison, which is a deadly practice.
So what ought to have combined Damon Runyon and Georges Feydeau falls flat. It's basically a simple case of overkill, of exploding nuclear devices when one bullet would do.
The jokes are of vaudeville (in the Anglo sense) caliber. "Come here!" --" I can't, I'm smoking a salmon"--" So, put it out." Or " Of course I knew. I just had no idea." (Sam Goldwyn said it better: "It's not only unfeasible, it cannot be done.")
Then, at some point, something good happens. I can't say exactly where or how. Perhaps we've been desensitized by then, but assuming the film was shot in sequence, the performers seem to find the right level of timing and delivery.
It helps that we also introduced to two amusing Italian tailors, Ferrero and Shearer, and to the very funny and timid Tim Curry who plays Snaps's elocution teacher and ends up marrying Lisa. Their appearances shift the mode from raucousness to humor and even seem to bring a modicum of wit to the other characters, the imbroglios and the confusion. The film becomes genuinely comical .
Except for those newcomers, acting honors go to the befuddled Chazz Palminteri, Stallone's dumdum bodyguard and, would you believe it, yes, to Sylvester himself. He maintains a nice, gentlemanly cool throughout, is even endearing and looks as if Rocky and Rambo would horrify him were they to show up at the Provolone mansion.
Stallone is also the shortest man around. No effort was made to put him in elevator shoes or have him stand on platforms hidden from view. Could it be that someone decided that if it was good enough for Edward G. Robinson as gangster boss from "Little Caesar" to "Key Largo" to allow his underlings to tower over him, it was good enough for Sly Stallone.
(Snaps Provolone, to better himself, learns a new word each day. By an amusing coincidence, in the title role of "Bugsy," another 1991 movie, gangster Warren Beatty too practices quotidian enrichment of his vocabulary).
Long ago in Hollywood, pretty-boy crooner Dick Powell had a solid second career as the tough hero of thrillers. Taking the reverse route, Stallone could well become a pretty good funnyman.

< This is the base class that takes in a GMSH .msh file to build a network. All edges in the mesh generated from GMSH are taken as edges of the network. The nodes in the mesh are taken as cross-linker positions and the edges as polymers.
All properties relevant to the computational experiments are initialized. Experiments are then member functions that can be called.
| Network::Network | ( | Network const & | source | ) |
| Network::Network | ( | string & | fname, |
| bool | from_dump = false |
||
| ) |
|
virtual |
Destructor for class network.
| void Network::add_long_range_egdes_random | ( | int | n_add, |
| float | prestretch | ||
| ) |
Adds random long range edges to the network. Chooses two nodes uniformly at random and adds an edge with x/L = 0.25 (i.e. prestressed)
| void Network::add_long_range_egdes_y | ( | int | n_add, |
| float | prestretch | ||
| ) |
Adds y-directional long range edges to the network. Chooses two nodes uniformly at random from the n_add divisions in x_direction such that the distance between them is at least 0.25*L_MEAN and at max L_MEAN.
| n_add | number of long range y-connections to add |
| prestrech | float between 0.01,0.99 to give initial x/L of these long range bonds If value is not between (0.01,0.99), 0.25 is assumed |
| void Network::apply_crack | ( | Cracklist & | alist | ) |
Adds random cracks in the Network object. This is implemented by removing all connections and nodes that lie {entirely} within the ellipses specified in alist. Please note this assumption may be relaxed and a probabilistic measure may be introduced to remove some connections so as to simulate small world networks (cluster networks) This is managed by the PROB_REMOVAL parameter in params.h.
| alist | (Cracklist) –> A list of ellipses |
|
virtual |
This function is for users to build custom networks. It has no body and implements nothing.
|
virtual |
Called by destructor of Network objects to clear variables from memory.
Reimplemented in MPI_Network, and sacNetwork.
| void Network::copy | ( | Network const & | source | ) |
| void Network::dump | ( | int | iter, |
| bool | first_time = false |
||
| ) |
Dumps the network information for an iteration in a file. Filename would be <FLDR_STRING>.txt with <FLDR_STRING taken from params.h If <FLDR_STRING>.txt exists, <FLDR_STRING>_i.txt would be created where i is an integer decided based on copies present in current folder.
/param iter The iteration number for the simulation
| int Network::get_current_edges | ( | ) |
Gets the active (load-bearing) edges in the Network object. Also prints out that info to STDOUT or piped OUT.
|
virtual |
Calculates forces along edges of the polymer network graph (i.e forces in each polymer). The forces are then assigned to nodes which prepares the network for the optimization step. If update_damage is true, the appropriate damage metric is also updated. If damage exceeds predefined thresholds, the edge is broken. In case of a sacNetwork object hidden lengths are also opened according to damage in these hidden bonds apart from end damage. The function does not return anything as it updates the objects forces directly.
| update_damage | (bool) –> flag to update damage |
Reimplemented in MPI_Network, and sacNetwork.
|
virtual |
Writes the forces on the top plate the supplied plate_forces array.
/param plate_forces (float*) –> storage array for plate_forces /param iter (int) –> force_{i} stored in plate_forces[iter*DIM + i] i = 0 ... DIM - 1 /param max_iter (int) –> maximum iterations to be allowed in descent
| bool Network::get_stats | ( | ) |

| float Network::get_weight | ( | ) |
Gets the total length of all polymer chains active in the network.
| void Network::load_from_dump | ( | string & | dname | ) |
This function loads the last network state from a dump file. This is called by the Network constructor load_from_dump is set to true. Do not load from dump if network has already broken.
| dname | (string) –> dump filename |
|
virtual |
This function builds the network. It includes building PBC bonds. The function initializes all properties required for running experiments on the instantiated Network code. This is called by constructor of a Network object. User is discouraged from directly calling this function.
| fname | (string) –> string of the .msh filepath |
Reimplemented in sacNetwork.
| void Network::make_edge_connections | ( | float | dely_allowed = 10.0 | ) |
Adds PBC bonds to the network according to dely_allowed.
| dely_allowed(float) | –> Connects two nodes i and j on the two sides of the network respectively iff $abs(y_i - y_j) < $dely_allowed |
|
virtual |
This function allocates memory for all class data members. This is called by the Network constructor if the same is called using a filepath string. User is discouraged from directly calling this function.
Reimplemented in sacNetwork.
|
virtual |
Moves the top plate according to velocity supplied in vel.h.
Overloads assignment operator (=) to implement copy constructor.
|
virtual |
Equilibriates the Network object using RMSProp algorithm due to G. Hinton et al (a gradient based force minimization over each node). Stops when maximum force on node is less than TOL specified in params.h or max_iter is reached.
/param eta (float) –> learning rate /param alpha (float) –> history weighting parameter /param max_iter (int) –> maximum iterations to be allowed in descent
|
virtual |
Plots the graph of the network. Note the edges in the graph just signify connection between two nodes and do not represent the actual polymer geometry in any sense. Note that this plot will be saved as .png file in the folder specified by FLDR_STRING in params.h.
| iter_step | (int) –> The iteration number of the experiment. This number will also be the filename for the .png file |
| first_time | (bool) –> This just effects what quantity is mapped to the color of the graph. If True, colors represent magnitude of forces in the polymer else, they represent the damage in a polymer connection |
| void Network::remove_duplicates | ( | int & | n_elems | ) |
Removes duplicate edges. A much more efficient version can be made of this program. But it is called only once in the simulation, so this should be fine.
| float Network::set_weight | ( | float | weight | ) |
Sets the total length of all polymer chains according to supplied weight parameter. Also prints out the new average polymer contour lengths.
/param weight (float) –> Weight goal required.
| void Network::side_nodes | ( | float | max_x = MAXBOUND_X , |

I spent some time this afternoon updating my grade book. Like most of us, grading is my least favorite part of teaching and I have a nasty habit of putting it off for longer than I should. I end up having marathon grading stints after school and it usually seems to coincide with other things I would rather be doing.
Anyways, I was putting grades into the book and I began thinking about what I’m going to call “count down” grading and “count up” grading. Very technical.
Currently, my grading is quasi-standards based, where learners are rated on a one to four scale for each learning objective based on an evaluation of some sort. Each person starts with a zero, for no experience, and can progress at any time to a four, which is a class expert. If they are at a level four, they know that they can be called upon to tutor small groups and teach others. It works really well and I have reliable people to help foster collaboration in the class. Learners have told me that it is encouraging to work this way because they can see their learning increasing through the chapter (or quarter, etc) as they gain new skills. This is “count up.”
That all sounds great, but the grade book can cause some concerns for people that aren’t familiar with the system. Until the learner attempts the concept, they are a zero. As a zero, they are not being punished for incompletion or missing work. It is simply a place holder until something is put in there. It helps them keep track of where they are and what they need to be working on. At times, though, there are mild panic attacks because of the number that is associated with their names.
I began thinking about some other books I’ve seen, where learners all begin with full credit (the proverbial “clean sheet”) and are then whittled down over time through testing, homework, or whatever other assignments are put in. I haven’t used a system like this, but I have known teachers that make sure everyone starts at 100% and then works down by artificially setting the grades at the start of each new quarter. This is “count down” grading.
I know this narrative is painfully biased, but I think it is an important questions for practicing teachers to ask themselves (constant evaluation and adaptation) as well as for teachers in training to ponder before they hit the class. Are you using grades to show the learning process? Or are grades simply an average of scores through the year?
—-
On a side note, I would abolish grades if I could, but that’s not the system we live in. Until that day comes, I’ll do the best I can.

Welcome to the Shape-Up Wellness Choice Program Reporting System. Please utilize the links to the left to log in your program activites. Detailed program information and instructions for this reporting system are available on the Shape-Up website at.


comtradeRggregator
uses comtradr
to access Comtrade trade data using its API. This means that you sometimes are confronted with a set of API related error messages. To learn more about the different types of errors see w3.org.
comtradeRggregator
and how to fix themTypically, you get a 400 (bad request) error whenever any of the input parameters are specified incorrectly.
Double-check all input parameters for download_Comtrade()
for any issues/inconsistencies.
One of the most common issues is that if you hit a usage limit a 409 (conflict) error is returned along with a message specifying why the request was blocked and when requests may resume.
Whenever such an error occurs during one of its queries, comtradeRggregator
pauses the data query. Next, after a specified cool-off of an hour, it tries to resume the download. This means that you can conveniently max out the user limit for bulk downloads, and comtradeRggregator
will ensure your query fails because of usage limits. The limits for unauthenticated requests, i.e. guests, are set to 100 requests per hour (per IP address or authenticated user). See Comtrade’s API help page for more information.
However, this is not practice I would wish to encourage. Instead, you should acquire an authentication code (token) which you can then use when calling download_Comtrade()
for large bulk downloads.
Follow the instruction on Comtrade’s API page to Comtrade’s API help page to get access to an authentication code (token).
You can check the validity of your token here.
Use the token as input parameter token
in function download_Comtrade()
to get unlimited (authenticated) usage of 10,000 requests per hour.
Unexplored/unspecified error. comtradeRggregator
will pause the download for 60 seconds and re-send the last unsuccessful query again.
This should typically eliminate the issue, and your request should go through after at most a handful of attempts.
In case you are running a big request, i.e., you try to download a big chunk of data, consider increasing the interval between every single request. You can do this by increasing the parameter value for sleep
in download_Comtrade()
.
curl::curl_fetch_memory()
Sometimes, especially when downloading large(r) chunks of data, you might run into the following error message:
Error in curl::curl_fetch_memory(url, handle = handle) :
Operation was aborted by an application callback
From experience, and in the context of this package, the error message relates to the file you are trying to download with curl
. In other words, there are limits on the respective file sizes and download times per file, and one of your download_Comtrade()
queries might hit one of those curl
limits.
In such a case, try re-running your download_Comtrade()
query by reducing the value for ext_cnt
, which sets the number of countries extracted with each request (default and maximum is 5). The lower the number for ext_cnt
, the fewer countries are downloaded simultaneously, hence the smaller the file size and the shorter the download time. Alternatively, the same error message also gets triggered when your device gets disconnected from the internet, so also double-check to make sure you are still online.

IYC urges security agencies to probe Nembe pre-election violence
by https://www.facebook.com/CheerfulpraiseMike Odiegwu, Yenagoa
The Ijaw Youths Council (IYC) Central Zone, has called on security agencies to investigate the pre-election violence that rocked Nembe Local Government Area in Bayelsa State and left some persons dead and others injured.
The Zonal Chairman, Kennedy Olorogun, spoke on Friday during a one-day nonviolent summit, praise and prayer he organised to harp on the need for peace before, during and after the election.
Olorogun described the shooting and killing in Nembe as barbaric unacceptable and called on security agencies to up their game to forestall recurrence.
He said persons involved in the incident should be fished out and prosecuted to serve as deterrent to others.
Olorogun said there was no alternative to peace saying election should not be viewed as war but a democratic contest involving brothers.
He asked youths to eschew violence and stop allowing themselves to be used by politicians to disrupt the peace in the state.
Olorogun said: “We condemn in the strongest of terms the devilish act in Nembe that led to the death of so some youths with many people wounded.
“The IYC leadership also call on INEC and Security agencies to exhibit the characters of civility and neutrality to ensure the election is peaceful, transparent, credible, free and fair”.

In their various remarks, the Commissioner for Youths, Ebipatei Apaingolo and IYC National Secretary, Alfred Kemepado called on youths to stay away from violence during the poll.
Kemepado particularly told the youths that IYC had not and would not endorse any candidate for the election.
He, however, said members were free to support and vote for any candidate of their choice.
“Any purported endorsement is a crime to Ijaw nation. I urge the clan chairmen and IYC members to go down to their communities to exercise their civic responsibility of voting and I appeal to security agencies to be professional in discharging their duties and not to compromise the process”.

Our organizing team has a variety of responsibilities that all contribute towards delivering an awesome experience for our attendees and speakers. We’ve formalized those into the following roles:
SUPER GENIUS OF CONF
The SUPER GENIUS OF CONF oversees the direction of the conference, year after year, and ensures that it stays true to its mission, character and overall vibe.
Additionally, they manage the budget, set ticket pricing, manage the ticketing system, invoice sponsors and make the final decisions about how we spend the money generated from ticket sales and sponsorships.
They also help the other roles organize their work and fill in wherever needed, from sweeping the floor to updating the website, to ordering stickers.
For 2019, our SUPER GENIUS OF CONF is Troy Howard.
Agenda Director
The Agenda Director is responsible for managing everything related to the conference agenda, schedule, and speakers.
They open and close the Call For Proposals (CFP), work closely with the Program Committee, coordinate the talk selection process and speaker outreach, communicate with potential speakers when a talk is accepted or rejected, coordinate speaker travel, organize the talk schedule, and help ensure the speakers are prepared for their talk.
After the conference, they manage the process of getting videos uploaded to the site.
For 2019, the ML4ALL Agenda Director is Lena Hall.
Program Committee
Program Committee are known members of the community passionate about Machine Learning and related topics. They have varying backgrounds, skills, and diverse expertise that contributes a lot to builing an excellent conference agenda. The Program Committee works closely with Agenda Director, and help create the agenda for the conference by doing outreach to invite the best speakers, judging and voting for the best talks. They also communicate with the wide audience, encourage people to attend the conference, and submit talks through the CFP.
For 2019, the ML4ALL Program Committee consists of Paige Bailey, Natallia Dzenisenka, and Wee Hyong Tok.
The Program Committee is usually invited by the conference organizers. If you would like to be a member of ML4ALL Program Committee next year, or have a recommendation, contact us at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Sponsorship Coordinator

Emcee
The Emcee is the face and voice of the conference on stage. They are responsible for introducing the speakers on stage, and making various announcements during the conference. The Emcee also manages any on-stage interaction with the crowd that may come up, especially around Q&A.
For 2019, the ML4ALL Emcee role is shared by Troy Howard and Glenn Block.
NOTE: We’d love to find a replacement for Troy or Glenn in this role. If you’re interested, shoot us an email at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>The Emcee can be based anywhere in the world, but must be able to attend the conference.
Speaker Wrangler
The Speaker Wrangler works closely with the Emcee, but operates off-stage, to make sure that speakers are ready to take the stage at their scheduled time. The Speaker Wrangler also helps them connect to the A/V system and troubleshoot and projection or amplification problems, and helps the speaker wear their microphone. During the talk, they ensure the speaker does not run over time (gives 5 minute warning, and cuts off long-running talks).
For 2019, the ML4ALL Speaker Wrangler is Adron Hall.
Communications Director
The Communications Director is responsible for managing outbound communications and promotions via email, Twitter, and other online media. The Communications Director works closely with the Brand Director to ensure the voice of the brand remains consistent with the conference’s identity and vibe.
For 2019, the ML4ALL Communications Director is Adron Hall.


Get ready for a trip to space fisiting all atmosphere layers
There are 5 layer which are trorosphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, thermosphere and Exospere. These layers provide protection to the earth.
Keep scrolling for a ride through the layers.
The Troposphere starts at the Earth's surface and extends 8 to 14.5 kilometers high. This part of the atmosphere is the most dense. Almost all weather is in this region. Within the troposphere you will find Earth, Humans (us), animals, clouds and hot air ballons.

The Stratosphere starting at 17km ending at 50 km consists of the ozone layer. Ozone is created when radiation from the sun splits two-atom oxygen molecules into separate atoms. They combine with other two-atom molecules to form a three-atom molecule. The layer acts as a shield from ultraviolet radiation from the sun. The upper part of the stratosphere warms up to approximately 18°C as the ozone reacts with ultraviolet radiation giving off enough heat to warm this layer. The oxygen has decreased at this layer.

Above the stratosphere is the mesosphere. It extends upward to a height of about 85 km above our planet. Most meteors burn up in the mesosphere. Unlike the stratosphere, temperatures once again grow colder as you rise up through the mesosphere. Due to the cold temperatures meteors burn. The Metosphere is where all meteors burn to protect the earth. However there are chances that a meteor can pass this protection layer and hit earth.

High-energy X-rays and UV radiation from the Sun are absorbed in the thermosphere, raising its temperature to hundreds or at times thousands of degrees. However, the air in this layer is so thin that it would feel freezing cold to us!

Although some experts consider the thermosphere to be the uppermost layer of our atmosphere, others consider the exosphere to be the actual "final frontier" of Earth's gaseous envelope. Different definitions place the top of the exosphere somewhere between 100,000 km (62,000 miles) and 190,000 km (120,000 miles) above the surface of Earth. The latter value is about halfway to the Moon!

This is a JavaScript library that helps in progressively enhancing websites. It is relying on pushState, replaceState, onPopState and plain JavaScript to give the user the impression a request is handled on the server, when in fact the request is handled on the client itself. The library is a client side implementation of the Express* API. The goal here is to promote re-use of the routing and templating logic from the server on the client.
* Express is a high performance, high class web development framework for Node.js.
This website has been created using Node.js and Express on the server and Client Express on the client. Each page will show where the main content was generated. You may also want to open FireBug which will show you the log output which will show what route was triggered.
When we look at a simple Express configuration, and then take a look at the same configuration for Client Express them you may notice a striking similarity between the two.
Express configuration:var express = require('express'); var server = express.createServer(); server.get('/', function(request, response) { response.send('hello world'); }); server.listen(3000);Client Express configuration:
var express = require('express'); var server = express.createServer(); server.get('/', function(request, response) { response.send('hello world'); }); server.listen(3000); // this of course doesn't do anything
The source code of the Client Express library as well as the source code for this website can be found on GitHub please use it and provide feedback.

General Election 2019: First head-to-head debate on 19 November
The first head-to-head election debate between Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn will take place on 19 November.
It will be shown on ITV and hosted by news presenter Julie Etchingham.
The channel said it also plans to hold a multi-party debate in the run-up to the 12 December poll.
On Thursday, Labour leader Mr Corbyn challenged the PM to a one-on-one debate, while Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson said she should take part in a three-headed encounter with the two leaders.
Mr Corbyn welcomed ITV's announcement on Twitter, claiming Mr Johnson had "accepted our challenge" for the "once in a generation election".
But pro-Remain parties are not happy, with the Lib Dems criticising the line-up as a "cosy establishment stitch-up" and the SNP saying it would be "deeply misleading for viewers".
After the main event, ITV said it would hold a live interview-based programme to allow other parties to comment on the debate.
The Conservatives, Labour, Liberal Democrats, Brexit Party, Scottish National Party and the Green Party will all be represented.
In a later multi-party debate, the Conservatives, Labour, Lib Dems, SNP, Brexit Party and Plaid Cymru will take part, represented by either their leader or "another senior figure".
'Undemocratic'
ITV said Northern Ireland and Wales would have their own debates specifically for the nations, while STV - which broadcasts to parts of Scotland - plans to hold its own debate with Scottish candidates.
The SNP said it should be included in the principal debate since it could very well hold the balance of power in a Hung Parliament.
"This debate ignores the half of the population who voted remain and want to see the UK stay in the EU and the majority in Scotland who support independence," said the party's Westminster leader Ian Blackford.

And Lib Dem MP Chuka Umunna said the format was "undemocratic and wrong".
Political leaders' TV debates have featured in the last three general elections in 2010, 2015 and 2017.
But in 2017, the then-Conservative Party leader and PM Theresa May declined to take part, saying she preferred "to get out and about and meet voters".
The then-Home Secretary Amber Rudd stood in for her during a BBC debate.

--- title: Sharp Color Keys sidebar: documentation_sidebar permalink: EBSDSharpPlot.html folder: documentation toc: false ---
In this section we discuss color keys that are particular useful when analyzing data with very small deviation in orientation. Let us consider the following calcite data set
{% highlight matlab %} % plotting conventions plotx2east, plotb2east mtexdata sharp ebsd = ebsd('calcite'); ipfKey = ipfColorKey(ebsd); close all; plot(ebsd,ipfKey.orientation2color(ebsd.orientations)) {% endhighlight %} {% highlight plaintext %} saving data to /home/hielscher/mtex/master/data/sharp.mat ebsd = EBSD Phase Orientations Mineral Color Symmetry Crystal reference frame 0 32 (0.16%) notIndexed 1 20119 (100%) calcite LightSkyBlue -3m1 X||a*, Y||b, Z||c* Properties: x, y Scan unit : um {% endhighlight %}and have a look into the 100 inverse pole figure.
{% highlight matlab %} % compute the positions in the inverse pole figure h = ebsd.orientations .\ vector3d.X; h = project2FundamentalRegion(h); % compute the azimuth angle in degree color = h.rho ./ degree; plotIPDF(ebsd.orientations,vector3d.X,'property',color,'MarkerSize',3,'grid') mtexColorbar {% endhighlight %} {% highlight plaintext %} I'm plotting 8333 random orientations out of 20119 given orientations {% endhighlight %}We see that all individual orientations are clustered around azimuth angle 115 degrees with some outliers at 65 degree. In order to increase the contrast for the main group, we restrict the color range from 110 degree to 120 degree.
{% highlight matlab %} caxis([110 120]); % by the following lines we colorcode the outliers in purple. cmap = colormap; cmap(end,:) = [1 0 1]; % make last color purple cmap(1,:) = [1 0 1]; % make first color purple colormap(cmap) {% endhighlight %}The same colorcoding we can now apply to the EBSD map.
{% highlight matlab %} % plot the data with the customized color plot(ebsd,color) % set scaling of the angles to 110 - 120 degree caxis([110 120]); % colorize outliers in purple. cmap = colormap; cmap(end,:) = [1 0 1]; cmap(1,:) = [1 0 1]; colormap(cmap) {% endhighlight %}Next, we want to apply the same ideas as above to the default MTEX color key, i.e. we want to stretch the colors such that they cover just the orientations of interest.
{% highlight matlab %} ipfKey = ipfHSVKey(ebsd.CS.properGroup); % To this end, we first compute the inverse pole figure direction such that % the mean orientation is just at the gray spot of the inverse pole figure ipfKey.inversePoleFigureDirection = mean(ebsd.orientations,'robust') * ipfKey.whiteCenter; close all; plot(ebsd,ipfKey.orientation2color(ebsd.orientations)) {% endhighlight %}We observe that the orientation map is almost completely gray, except for the outliers which appears black. Next, we use the option maxAngle
to increase contrast in the grayish part
You may play around with the option maxAngle
to obtain better results. As for interpretation keep in mind that white color represents the mean orientation and the color becomes more saturated and later dark as the orientation to color diverges from the mean orientation.
Let's have a look at the corresponding color map.
{% highlight matlab %} plot(ipfKey,'resolution',0.25*degree) % plot orientations into the color key hold on plotIPDF(ebsd.orientations,'points',10,'MarkerSize',1,'MarkerFaceColor','w','MarkerEdgeColor','w') hold off {% endhighlight %} {% highlight plaintext %} I'm plotting 10 random orientations out of 20119 given orientations {% endhighlight %}observe how in the inverse pole figure the orientations are scattered closely around the white center. Together with the fact that the transition from white to color is quite rapidly, this gives a high contrast.
Another example is when analyzing the orientation distribution within grains
{% highlight matlab %} mtexdata forsterite ebsd = ebsd('indexed'); % segment grains [grains,ebsd.grainId] = calcGrains(ebsd); % find largest grains largeGrains = grains(grains.grainSize > 800) ebsd = ebsd(largeGrains(1)) {% endhighlight %} {% highlight plaintext %} ebsd = EBSD Phase Orientations Mineral Color Symmetry Crystal reference frame 0 58485 (24%) notIndexed 1 152345 (62%) Forsterite LightSkyBlue mmm 2 26058 (11%) Enstatite DarkSeaGreen mmm 3 9064 (3.7%) Diopside Goldenrod 12/m1 X||a*, Y||b*, Z||c Properties: bands, bc, bs, error, mad, x, y Scan unit : um largeGrains = grain2d Phase Grains Pixels Mineral Symmetry Crystal reference frame 1 56 85514 Forsterite mmm 2 2 1969 Enstatite mmm boundary segments: 17507 (811875 µm) inner boundary segments: 222 (10023 µm) triple points: 1247 Properties: meanRotation, GOS ebsd = EBSD Phase Orientations Mineral Color Symmetry Crystal reference frame 1 1453 (100%) Forsterite LightSkyBlue mmm Properties: bands, bc, bs, error, mad, x, y, grainId Scan unit : um {% endhighlight %}When plotting one specific grain with its orientations we see that they all are very similar and, hence, get the same color
{% highlight matlab %} % plot a grain close all plot(largeGrains(1).boundary,'linewidth',2) hold on plot(ebsd,ebsd.orientations) hold off {% endhighlight %}when applying the option sharp MTEX colors the mean orientation as white and scales the maximum saturation to fit the maximum misorientation angle. This way deviations of the orientation within one grain can be visualized.
{% highlight matlab %} % plot a grain plot(largeGrains(1).boundary,'linewidth',2) hold on ipfKey = ipfHSVKey(ebsd); ipfKey.inversePoleFigureDirection = mean(ebsd.orientations) * ipfKey.whiteCenter; ipfKey.maxAngle = 2*degree; plot(ebsd,ipfKey.orientation2color(ebsd.orientations)) hold off {% endhighlight %}

Statue of Indian pilot Abhinandan installed in Karachi's PAF Museum
by https://www.dawn.com/authors/119/afp, AFPA statue of an Indian pilot whose plane was shot down by the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) over Indian-occupied Kashmir earlier this year has been put on display in Karachi, invoking the ire of India's media.
The life-sized statue of Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman — complete with his signature moustache — has been installed in an exhibit at the PAF Museum in Karachi.
Varthaman's plane was shot down in a dogfight over the disputed Himalayan region in February during clashes which brought nuclear-armed India and Pakistan to the brink of a new war.
After his capture, the Pakistani military released a video showing him sipping a cup of tea and politely refusing to answer questions.
His stoic and courteous demeanour — and comment that the tea was “fantastic” — catapulted him to hero status in India.
He was released several days later in a peace gesture from Pakistan aimed at defusing tensions.
The statue stands in a gallery named Operation Swift Retort.
The exhibit includes parts of the fuselage and tail of Varthaman's aircraft, a Mig-21, as well as a tea mug — though apparently not the same one the pilot was seen sipping from.
The gallery also contains images re-enacting the moment his plane was shot down, and photographs showing him being handed back to India at the Wagah border crossing.
A mess receipt jokingly charging Varthaman for the tea — at the cost of one Mig-21 — is also framed in the exhibit. Images of the mocking receipt went viral in the days after his capture.
The museum stands inside a recreational park for young people in Karachi, complete with decommissioned aircraft and other military hardware.
“I feel very proud of my country seeing Abhinandan's statue at the gallery,” said Samiullah Bari, a 10th grade student visiting the museum on a school trip.
Indians were less enthusiastic, however, with the Times of India newspaper calling the exhibit “a new low”.


Bafana coach discusses possible Benni role
Cape Town - Bafana Bafana coach Molefi Ntseki has been probed whether former striker Benni McCarthy could join his technical team.
The 42-year-old McCarthy was recently sacked as head coach of Cape Town City following a run of poor results as the Mother City side won just two of their last 18 matches.
McCarthy has reportedly returned to Scotland to enjoy some quality family time as he ponders his next move, with reports linking the Champions League winner to Soweto giants Orlando Pirates.
South African Football Association (SAFA) president Danny Jordaan also weighed in on McCarthy's sacking, revealing he will have talks with the coach to discuss a possible role within the association.
Meanwhile, Ntseki is hoping to build an overseas-based scouting network in the next few months with a view to roping in McCarthy.
"Yeah, because when you look at our roll-out plan I presented to the president and technical committee, we need to have a scout overseas," said Ntseki ahead of Bafana Bafana's crucial Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Ghana on Thursday.
"Basically we are saying we must have two, who will be helping each other for senior and all the junior players, because if we are to have only one scout then it would be very difficult to be all over and give us a technical report on players we have overseas.
"So, it's just unfortunate that coach Benni had to lose his job at Cape Town City, but that doesn’t mean anything bad about him - he’s a good coach and a legend of the game, and he’s qualified to do the job for us. When that time comes, we’ll be able to consider him."

My task was identifying a user pain point revolving around online resources for travel planning, followed by researching and designing a whole new mobile experience that addressed the pain points.
I was assigned a proto-persona and a live business website where I needed to research and improve or implement a new feature that would meet my proto-persona's needs.
As the primary user researcher on a team of three, I provided my teammates with valuable insight that they needed to improve Geekwire’s current mobile app UX and UI design.
