BOYS DON'T CRY (1999)
Grade: B+
Director: Kimberly Pierce
Screenplay: Kimberly Pierce, Andy Bienen
Starring: Hilary Swank, Chloe Sevigny, Peter Sarsgaard, Brendan Sexton III, Allison Folland, Alicia Goranson
The story of Teena Brandon is more than just that, it's the story of Mathew Shepard, possibly even the story of Howard Beach.  Both were killed out of intolerance, possibly fear as well.  She changed her appearance (taped her breasts, cut her hair, developed a swagger), and her name (took the Brandon and put it before the Teena) all to become male. Shocking? Not really.  Though unlike the homogenized fairy tales we're force fed as kids, this one doesn't end happily.
I recall the first time I became aware of Brandon's story.  Before heading to bed I switched on Cinemax hoping for some soft-core porn, as is the usual programming at 2:00 a.m. Instead I found THE BRANDON TEENA STORY, a horribly made, but nonetheless gripping documentary about the brief life and sudden death of Teena Brandon. It was a maddening story, viewing it was tantaumont to being privy to an injustice that could have easily been countered.   And who among us doesn't at least fleetingly have that desire? Is her wish to be a man all that hard to take in these supposedly enlightened times? ("Enlightened" today means we all carry around the same old prejudices, only now they're kept tightly underwraps only to surface in the heat of the moment as DO THE RIGHT THING, Spike Lee's audacious film about intolerance, showed us).  When Brandon is confronted about her switch (during a rape query no less) she's practically forced into saying "I have a sexual identity crisis" when she really doesn't, she's simply more comfortable as a man.
That damn documentary kept me up till 4:00 am, but it was well worth it. Teena Brandon's story is more insightful than anything I picked up in the gargantuan Psychology textbook I had been slogging through the very same night.
In BOYS DON'T CRY, Brandon is played by Hilary Swank in a performance that goes well beyond simple macho posturing. With her close-cropped hair, thin frame, and wide grin, Swank has the appearance of an extremely gawky Matt Damon. But look closer at that smile, the earnestness in her demeanor, the good-natured chivalrousness and she becomes loveable as a man. It's easy to see why a bitter southern townie would fall for her. She has something the other males lack; an aw shucks kindness. She comes with flowers while the others come with beer and condoms.
As the film opens Teena leaves her hometown of Lincoln for Falls City, a trailer park haven. Through a bar fight she becomes acquainted with two loutish rednecks (both extremely well played by Peter Sarsgaard and Brendan Sexton III), and their "girls". One of whom catches Teena's eye. She is Lana (well played by Chloe Sevigny) a bitter townie, who like all bitter townies dreams of escaping the confines of her town. Brandon is in a similar situation; she dreams of escaping the confines of femininity. Teena woos her with sweetness, something the men of this particular town seem to know nothing about (yes a generalization, but a surprisingly appropriate one judging from the documentary). Their relationship is the heart of the film, and it certainly works to counter the almost clinical manner of its brutal, unflinching conclusion. That heart makes the violence much harder to take; we've grown to care about this character and the unrelenting cruelty towards her hurts, as it should.
Kimberly Pierce (the co-writer\director, and certainly a talent to watch) ups the lyrical undertones with in-between-scene segues filmed as heady rushes of prairie life speeded up to the point where all we see are rapid lights blinking with urgency. The film itself gradually becomes more urgent, and a bit more difficult to watch. Pierce doesn't hide much from us. We see the murders, the beatings, and the rape, but here it serves a purpose whereas in a major Hollywood production like THE GENERAL'S DAUGHTER it did not. In that movie the rape was filmed by commercial director Simon West as a masochistic gang bang fantasy. West used flashy camera moves and stylishly dank cinematography to make, what looked like, a slick commercial for rape. Pierce hardly moves her camera; she simply presents us with the facts. BOY'S DON'T CRY doesn't preach, or moralize its characters, it chronicles events that did occur. And it gives them life and meaning by taking us into a strangely touching romance that looks to be so simple on the surface. It is simple in all its ROMEO AND JULIET tragic romanticism, but complex because of the one major addition.
Pierce's film is uncompromising in its content. I can just imagine if it had been made as a mainstream film (as was proposed). The movie features the kind of raw intensity, taboo exploration, and emotional truths that used to be (pre-Tarantino) the hallmark of independent film. Now amidst the rotting corpses of irony laden "hipster" indies, BOYS DON'T CRY stands out as a sobering experience.

Your glorious leader Kublai Khan wants to crush the imbeciles that reside on the islands they call Japan. He has provided you with a large army and navy because you need to obliterate any Japanese opposition you face. You set sail from China with the hopes of crushing thousands of Japanese souls. At your command are 3,500 ships and 100,000 men, while a force of 900 ships with 40,000 men is quickly coming from Korea to augment yours. It is no matter that the ships that are and will be under your command are not powerful warships; their sole purpose is to transport the ground troops into Japan. From there on, the soldiers will invade the island and conquer it.
After a few short weeks on the seas, Japan finally comes into view. A wall on the beach protects the Japanese, and from the looks of it the wall is 4 or 5 meters tall. It appears sturdy, and you can see soldiers defending the wall from forts.
Do you wait for the second fleet to join your forces or are you confident in the ability and power of you own fleet enough to decide to strike now?

Dataset source & problem description
Dataset includes red "Vinho Verde" wine samples from the north of Portugal. Observations involve physico-chemical properties as well as sample rank given by the professional tasters (the "quality"). How wine market values each wine usually depends on those quality ratings. Gathered opinions of experienced sommeliers is usually becoming final judgement of wine's quality. But is it possible, with a series of laboratory tests, to predict which quality rating will be given to a wine? Could wine tester judgment be somehow related to wine chemical proportions? With given dataset we'll try to create artificial sommelier that based on physico-chemical features can predict which quality rating will be given.

High disproportion between min & max values of each feature. We might be dealing with outliers.
Imbalanced record distribution of quality class. Quality "3" & "8" have both representation below 20 records.
Strongest correlation between quality and alcohol, volatile acidity, citric acid, sulphates features.
Problem can be seen as an either classification or regression, take on account that quality grows continuously.
As seen on a graphs below for most correlated features we can see strongest upward trend on alcohol graph and clear inverse correlation on volatile acidity graph.

Should be possible. Will be noticed for future releases.


Flood risk is a combination of the probability (likelihood or chance) of an event happening and the consequences (impact) if it occurred. Flood risk is dependent on there being a source of flooding, such as a river, a route for the flood water to take (pathway), and something that is affected by the flood (receptor), such as a housing estate.
Flood hazard is focused on the estimate of annual maximum discharges for different non exceedance probabilities and establishment of the corresponding flooding area and specific parameters of flood (water level, flow velocity, etc.).
We will analysis of expected negative consequences of floods is based on the concept of vulnerability of social, economic and environmental systems.
“Risk is the expected loss (of lives, persons injured, property damaged, and economic activity disrupted) due to a particular hazard for a given area and reference period “
“Vulnerability is defined as the degree of loss to a given element at risk (or set of elements) resulting from given hazard at a given severity level”
.
Our Objective:
The objective of our solution is to demonstrate the spatial data that will contain the estimated affected areas and warning sign that will be better understandable to the local communities and ward leaders.

Overview and Training Materials
Technical Documentation
Technical Diagrams
The following series of technical one-pagers tell a story, starting with the iRODS Data Management Model.
iRODS: Data Management Model
iRODS provides eight packaged capabilities, each of which can be selectively deployed and configured (usually into known patterns). These patterns and capabilities represent the most common use cases as identified by community participation and reporting.
The model contains eight capabilities which can be combined into interesting patterns:
- Data to Compute is Automated Ingest + Tiering + Additional Policy
- Compute to Data is Sorting Policy + Job Routing Policy
- Synchronization is Automated Ingest + Sync Policy
- Data Transfer Nodes is Cache Management Policy + Replication Policy
Pattern: Data to Compute
In many existing enterprise and research deployments, HPC clusters are separated from long term data storage technologies. When data needs to be moved to HPC and back again, the Data to Compute design pattern can leverage metadata-driven workflows and automate the execution of an organization's data management policy.
Pattern: Compute to Data
When data is stored in specific locations due to a requirement for specialized software or hardware or only because it is too big and expensive to move, compute requests can be routed to the appropriate location automatically. This metadata-driven computation design pattern could serve as a bridge until the time services are more fully containerized.
Pattern: Synchronization
iRODS is usually deployed into an environment alongside multiple other technologies. Existing filesystems may be tightly coupled with scientific instruments or legacy pipelines which are not yet ready to be directly integrated with iRODS. In these cases, iRODS can 'follow the leader' and keep its metadata catalog up-to-date by synchronizing with an existing 'source of truth'.
Pattern: Data Transfer Nodes
Many academic and governmental organizations have mandates to share data with one another. However, most internal networks are not designed for easy sharing with external partners. The common resulting pattern of having a DMZ, or set of machines designated as Data Transfer Nodes, provides a solution to that mandate.
Capability: Automated Ingest - Filesystem Scanner
When an organization first discovers iRODS, it is usually true that the organization already has a lot of data in disparate storage systems.
The automated ingest framework is based on Redis and Celery and can scale workers to bring large filesystems under management quickly.
Capability: Automated Ingest - Landing Zone
iRODS is often deployed to capture products from systems that generate new files in a regular way (sequencers, telescopes, microscopes, sensor networks, etc.).
The automated ingest framework can be configured to watch locations for new files and extract metadata, define manifests, and otherwise prepare them for use by the rest of the system.
Capability: Storage Tiering
The storage tiering framework provides efficient policy-driven storage utilization by automatically moving data between any number of identified tiers of storage within a configured tiering group.
To define a storage tiering group, selected storage resources are labeled with metadata which define their place in the group and how long data should reside in that tier before being migrated to the next tier.
Capability: Indexing
The indexing capability provides a policy framework around both full text and metadata indexing for the purposes of data discovery. Logical collections are annotated with metadata which indicates that any data objects or nested collections of data objects should be indexed by a particular external indexing technology.
Capability: Publishing
The publishing capability provides a metadata-driven policy framework for the publication of data to external services. When data is annotated appropriately, it can be protected, assigned a persistent identifier, and queued for publication to the configured catalog of record.
Capability: Provenance
Since every operation within an iRODS Zone can be logged with an Audit Plugin, a well-formed query can discover every event associated with a particular data object, user, or resource. The results can be formed into a standardized target format and provide automated reporting for an organization.
Core: Integration Layer
iRODS provides a layer of abstraction which integrates with your pre-existing infrastructure. This flexibility allows your infrastructure to continue to change over time.
Data Lifecycle
As data matures and reaches a broader community, data management policy must also evolve to meet these additional requirements. iRODS virtualizes the stages of the data lifecycle through policy evolution.
From Prototype to Production
Deploying iRODS requires making decisions about how quickly and how deeply to integrate with existing systems. The flexibility of iRODS allows for a dynamic approach that supports building confidence and trust in the software.
Tighter integration and automation can lead to better performance and stronger assertions about what has happened to your data throughout its lifecycle.
Metadata Templates
With metadata being a central part of how iRODS fosters best practices in workflows and provenance, it is also important to encourage good metadata curation. Metadata templates afford iRODS a friendly UI for specifying requirements, validation, and standardization.
Multipart Data Objects: Transfer
An effort to improve reliability and predictability of large file transfers in iRODS, multipart data objects will improve transport speeds (parallel and/or multisource), allow for cache-free object storage plugins, and provide natural support for reliable restarts.

Wenger Compares Hazard To Overweight Racehorse
by David KappelNot one to mince his words, Arsene Wenger has compared Eden Hazard, who is one of Real Madrid's most expensive signings ever, to an overweight racehorse.
Read: Real Madrid Transfer News: Five Out, Five In?
The 70-year-old, who has been linked with the Bayern Munich job, currently works as TV pundit for beIN SPORTS.
He recently analysed Los Blancos' 6-0 win over Galatasaray, in which Belgium superstar Eden Hazard once again failed to impress.
Choose the right midfielder for SA's Real Madrid Dream Team & win a replica shirt!
"I feel we have not seen the Hazard we know from England yet," Wenger said.
"He was not physically fit after he was injured. He's not a player who is usually impressed by anything.
"But he looked to me that he (doesn't have) the same confidence he had at Chelsea. He's not a type of guy to be (awestruck).
"I think it was more down to physical reasons. He came too heavy, what you read in the papers.
"If you want to make a horse lose a race, you put two kilograms on a horse of 500 kilograms and it's enough."
Read: Hazard Breaks Silence On Wearing Ronaldo's No. 7
Hazard joined Real for €100 million (R1.6 billion) ahead of this season, taking over the club's famous No. 7 shirt, but has scored just once in 10 appearances so far.

I was not 100% happy with the first design of Globe Explorer, but now I am. In this post some screenshots and inside info of the new design. I hope you like and enjoy it ...
This was the first design I presented two weeks ago:
There were some issues with this design. First of all the Tixik API mapped photos to various countries. I addressed this to them, but I am waiting for an answer ... So not all photos were accurate. Secondly I loaded a lot of photos per country which might have slowed down the experience for users with a slower internet connection.
I improved quite some things I think:
<iframe id="panoramio" src="http://www.panoramio.com/wapi/template/photo_list.html?tag= <?php echo $countryAttributes[0]['country'];?> &width=600&height=600&list_size=6&position=top&bgcolor=%23f2f2f2" frameborder="0" width="600" height="600" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"> </iframe>
$gradientColor = getFlagAverageColor($country); .. function getFlagAverageColor($country){ // http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1746530/get-image-color $filename = "img/flags/".strtolower($country).".gif"; $image = imagecreatefromgif($filename); $width = imagesx($image); $height = imagesy($image); $pixel = imagecreatetruecolor(1, 1); imagecopyresampled($pixel, $image, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, $width, $height); $rgb = imagecolorat($pixel, 0, 0); $color = imagecolorsforindex($pixel, $rgb); return rgb2html($color['red'], $color['green'], $color['blue']); } function rgb2html($r, $g=-1, $b=-1) { if (is_array($r) && sizeof($r) == 3) list($r, $g, $b) = $r; $r = intval($r); $g = intval($g); $b = intval($b); $r = dechex($r<0?0:($r>255?255:$r)); $g = dechex($g<0?0:($g>255?255:$g)); $b = dechex($b<0?0:($b>255?255:$b)); $color = (strlen($r) < 2?'0':'').$r; $color .= (strlen($g) < 2?'0':'').$g; $color .= (strlen($b) < 2?'0':'').$b; return '#'.$color; }
I found a nice PHP class to calculate a lighter tone of that color. It also matches the foreground color to W3C color visibility guidelines. Quite neat! The calculated flag gradient also shows up in the autocomplete:
I took the homepage out. It had all the flags which was nice, but it didn't result in a fast load of the homepage. I do load the flags in the footer carousel, that did not change, but the potential delay does not jump in the eye (and if it does effect user experience I might get it out after all). I thought it was more fun to select some preferred countries, put them in an array and randomly select one and load its page. So now, when you go to the homepage, you get one of those preferred countries and you dive right in. Usually the specs show one or more neighbour countries so you can keep browsing countries. If not, I hope it is obvious you can use the search box at the top to lookup any country (or click on the flags in the footer).
Before showing off some examples, please let me know if you have any feedback. I am open to any comments. Thanks for the designers that had a critical look at the first version. Especially the feedback on gradients was very useful. Thanks guys!
Check out the site here. I also made some printscreens:

public interface BeanPostProcessor
ApplicationContexts can autodetect BeanPostProcessor beans in their bean definitions and apply them to any beans subsequently created. Plain bean factories allow for programmatic registration of post-processors, applying to all beans created through this factory.
Typically, post-processors that populate beans via marker interfaces
or the like will implement postProcessBeforeInitialization(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)
,
while post-processors that wrap beans with proxies will normally
implement postProcessAfterInitialization(java.lang.Object, java.lang.String)
.
| 限定符和类型 | 方法和说明 |
|---|---|
default java.lang.Object |
postProcessAfterInitialization(java.lang.Object bean,
java.lang.String beanName)
Apply this BeanPostProcessor to the given new bean instance after any bean
initialization callbacks (like InitializingBean's
afterPropertiesSet
or a custom init-method). |
default java.lang.Object |
postProcessBeforeInitialization(java.lang.Object bean,
java.lang.String beanName)
Apply this BeanPostProcessor to the given new bean instance before any bean
initialization callbacks (like InitializingBean's
afterPropertiesSet
or a custom init-method). |
@Nullable default java.lang.Object postProcessBeforeInitialization(java.lang.Object bean, java.lang.String beanName) throws BeansException
afterPropertiesSet
or a custom init-method). The bean will already be populated with property values.
The returned bean instance may be a wrapper around the original.
The default implementation returns the given bean
as-is.

@Nullable default java.lang.Object postProcessAfterInitialization(java.lang.Object bean, java.lang.String beanName) throws BeansException
afterPropertiesSet
or a custom init-method). The bean will already be populated with property values.
The returned bean instance may be a wrapper around the original.
In case of a FactoryBean, this callback will be invoked for both the FactoryBean
instance and the objects created by the FactoryBean (as of Spring 2.0). The
post-processor can decide whether to apply to either the FactoryBean or created
objects or both through corresponding bean instanceof FactoryBean
checks.
This callback will also be invoked after a short-circuiting triggered by a
InstantiationAwareBeanPostProcessor.postProcessBeforeInstantiation(java.lang.Class<?>, java.lang.String)
method,
in contrast to all other BeanPostProcessor callbacks.
The default implementation returns the given bean
as-is.

Yes, it's true! I have an inside track to several Amazon companies that are looking to give away their products, to generate visibility on the internet. It's A Win-Win Companies know that social media sharing is how they spread positive word of mouth about products. Which is why they are willing to give away for free (or at massive discounts) some incredible and popular products! It is a perfect win-win. In exchange for mentioning the product in your Facebook post so that people in your circle can see what you're buying ... you win by getting products that normally cost $20-$50 or more for free (or nearly free). You are NOT required to post an amazon review and you are not getting any discounts in exchange for doing so. In plain English, whether you leave a review or not is up to you. What is required is that you post about the product on your Facebook. It's that simple! You can see why this VIP Deal Club is so popular!
Rule #1: If You Get An Amazon Product From Us, You Agree to Post About It On Facebook.
The only incentive for these top rated amazon companies to offer their products to you (for 70-99% Off), is that we promise them you will post about it on Facebook. A shout out, a selfie with the product, whatever you wish to post is appreciated. We do expect you to hold up your end of the bargain to get all these incredible deeply discounted products. Again, we are not asking for any reviews - just a social media post on Facebook about the product.
Rule #2: Leaving a review on Amazon is NOT required and is entiely optional
Just to be absolutely clear: You are NOT required to leave an amazon review to get any of these super discounts. Discounts are offered in exchange for you posting about it on Facebook to generate social buzz about new products being released by these companies.
Rule #3: Your Facebook post must be left within 5 days of getting product
We promise our amazon partners that our members will post on facebook within 5 days of receiving the products.So now that you know why Amazon vendors want to mail you top-rated products for 70-99% off ... and what is required of you to participate ... here is how to sign up!


Namespace SudokuSpice.ConstraintBased
Classes
ExactCoverGraph
Holds an exact-cover graph for the current puzzle being solved.
This is an extension of the exact-cover matrix concept. Rows of the exact-cover matrix, i.e. a specific location and possible value for that location, are represented by Possibility objects. These are linked together by IObjective objects, which represent the columns of an exact-cover matrix.
For example, the RowUniquenessConstraint uses a required Objective to link all the Possibility objects on a single row that have the same possible value. This way, when one of these possibilities is selected, then the others are all dropped.
To extend the concept into a larger graph, this also uses OptionalObjectives to create subgroups over Possibility objects and/or other OptionalObjective objects. This allows for much more complex constraints, such as the MagicSquaresConstraint.
Objective
A required objective in the ExactCoverGraph. This enforces that one or more IPossibilitys must be selected.
OptionalObjective
An optional objective in an ExactCoverGraph. An optional objective is both an IObjective and an IPossibility.
This can be satisfied if one or more attached IPossibility objects are selected. Once satisfied, this drops any remaining unknown possibilities, and notifies parent objectives that to select this possibility.
Unlike Objectives, this class can be dropped. Dropping this objetive does not immediately impact attached possibilities. These possibilities may still be dropped or selected, as long as this objective does not become satisfied. If selecting a possibility would satisfy a dropped optional objective, then the call to SudokuSpice.ConstraintBased.IObjective.TrySelectPossibility(SudokuSpice.ConstraintBased.Link) will fail.
All OptionalObjective
objects must eventually be descendents of at least one
Objective.
Possibility
A concrete possibility in the ExactCoverGraph. This represents a single possible value for a single square in the puzzle.
PuzzleSolver<TPuzzle>
Solves puzzles of the given type using an ExactCoverGraph.
StandardPuzzles
Provides utilities for interacting with standard Sudoku puzzles.
Interfaces
IObjective
Defines an objective in the ExactCoverGraph graph.
IOptionalObjective
IPossibility
Defines a possibility in the ExactCoverGraph.
Enums
NodeState
Indicates if an IPossibility or IObjective is still possible, selected, or dropped.


This tab provides information regarding the "Plan in Progress" panel. This panel lets you add an actions form the list of grounded actions in the domain. You can select an action name and use the "Add" button for this purpose.
We understand once a human starts building a plan, it easy to loose track if it makes sense in the long run. Thus we provide the "Validate" functionality that can report actions that are not feisable in the context of the plan made so far. Lack of preconditions or ordering of actions are often the problem.
Lastly, if the human feels that it might be doing a sub-optimal plan and wants the planning assitant to generate a plan, he can use the "Suggest" button.
The action names is the grid are movable to ease the rearragment of actions. To do this click on an action and move it to the desired place with the mouse button pressed.

The Microservice API provides support for simple console commands.
| public static void main(String[] args) {
| Microservice
| .create()
| .args(args)
| .build()
| .start()
| .startConsole() // Start console.
| .join()
| ;
| }
When started, the console renders the following output:
| Running class 'Microservice' using config file 'my-microservice.cfg'.
|
| List of available commands:
| exit -- Shut down service
| restart -- Restarts service
| help -- Commands help
|
| >
The builder methods for controlling the console are as follows:
- {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice.Builder}
- {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice.Builder#consoleEnabled(boolean) consoleEnabled(boolean)}
- {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice.Builder#consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...) consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...)}
- {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice.Builder#consoleCommands(Class...) consoleCommands(Class...)}
- {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice.Builder#console(Scanner,PrintWriter) console(Scanner,PrintWriter)}
By default, the supported commands are pulled from the configuration file:
| #=======================================================================================================================
| # Console settings
| #=======================================================================================================================
| [Console]
|
| enabled = true
|
| # List of available console commands.
| # These are classes that implements ConsoleCommand that allow you to submit commands to the microservice via
| # the console.
| # When listed here, the implementations must provide a no-arg constructor.
| # They can also be provided dynamically by overriding the Microservice.createConsoleCommands() method.
| commands =
| org.apache.juneau.microservice.console.ExitCommand,
| org.apache.juneau.microservice.console.RestartCommand,
| org.apache.juneau.microservice.console.HelpCommand
New commands can be added by adding them to the configuration file, or programmatically using the {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice.Builder#consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...) consoleCommands(ConsoleCommand...)}
builder method.
The API for defining console commands is shown below:
- {@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand}
- {@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#execute(Scanner,PrintWriter,Args) execute(Scanner,PrintWriter,Args)}
- {@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getDescription() getDescription()}
- {@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getExamples() getExamples()}
- {@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getInfo() getInfo()}
- {@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getName() getName()}
- {@link oaj.microservice.console.ConsoleCommand#getSynopsis() getSynopsis()}
By default, the console input and output are taken from {@link java.lang.System#in} and {@link java.lang.System#out}.
These can be overridden using the {@link oaj.microservice.Microservice.Builder#console(Scanner,PrintWriter) console(Scanner,PrintWriter)} method.


protected
members in final
classes.
Since final
classes cannot be inherited, marking the method as protected
may be confusing. It is better to declare such members as private
or package-visible instead.
Example:
record Bar(int a, int b) {
protected int sum() {
return a + b;
}
}
After the quick-fix is applied:
record Bar(int a, int b) {
int sum() {
return a + b;
}
}
As shown in the example, a class can be marked as final
explicitly or implicitly.

Tests that check that the
destination host or cluster can see the datastores where the virtual
machine's virtual disks are currently located. The destination
resource pool is irrelevant. If you are planning to relocate the
virtual disks, do not use these tests; instead examine the relevant
datastore objects for your planned disk locations to see if they
are accessible to the destination host.

Tests that check that the destination resource
pool can support the virtual machine if it is powered on. The
destination host or cluster is relevant because it will affect the
amount of overhead memory required to run the virtual machine.

It doesn’t matter how many firewalls, P2P filters, script blockers, or spyware removers you use, the one giveaway to your identity on the Internet is your IP address. Those numbers will trumpet your location to whoever’s interested, which is why you’ll often see annoying ads like “Find friends in (insert your city here) now!” This lack of privacy is a huge problem for political dissidents in China, or for anyone in that country who wants to surf an uncensored version of the net.
Fortunately, there are anonymous proxies that you can use to redirect your traffic through servers in ‘safe’ countries. One piece of software that does this extremely well is Ultrasurf 8 by Ultrareach Internet Corp. Ultrasurf was designed specifically to provide surfing freedom and anonymity to the Chinese. The beauty of this software is that is searches for the fastest US proxies in the background while encrypting Internet Explorer so that you will never be hounded by the Chinese Internet police. Plugins like Firefox’s ProxySwitch, or ad-supported software like Hotspot Shield are not nearly as good.
The benefits for Canadians of using this software is that you can get around copyright restrictions on streaming your favourite US TV shows from network sites, or streaming music on pandora. I do not endorse engaging in these sorts of activities, of course, but thought you should be aware of the possibilities.

In this project, we're going to make a webpage whose background color is set via a blending of Red, Green, and Blue values. There will be buttons that add or subtract from the Red, Green, and Blue levels to change the background of the page.
Click Here to View Full Screen!
1. Open a new HTML file and give your page a title.
2. Make a "+" button and a "-" button that appear side-by-side. Set their background color to red.
3. Now make two more "+" and "-" buttons under the first two. Set their background color to green.
4. Make two final "+" and "-" buttons under those. Set their background color to blue.
5. Using JavaScript, make three variables (red, green, and blue) and set them all to random numbers between 0 and 255.
6. Using those values, set the background color of the page. For example if you have Red = 110, Blue = 95, Green = 215, set the background of the page to be the color rgb(110,215,95)
.
7. Write code that makes your red buttons cause the red variable to go up and down, then make it update the page color.
8. Now do the same for the green and blue buttons.
9. Play around with the style of your page. Choose the shape for your buttons, choose which shades of red, blue and green to color them, etc.
10. Save and share your project!


The Mission
Hi, my name is Jacob Ortt and I am the PR Rep for the Computer Engineering Club. During this year's geer week I have found myself in a bit of a bind. For anyone who does not know the Rules of Geer week, PR reps are treated like objects. I must be in the possession of another member of my club or else I can be stolen by another club.  This would all be fine and dandy if it wasn't for one major problem: I live with two Mechanical Engineers. Any time that I go home I can be kidnapped by their club and held for ransom. As you can imagine this idea does not appeal to me a whole lot, so I have decided to avoid the situation completely by just not going home. There is one safe place for me during geer week and that is the computer engineering club room in ETLC. I will be living ETLC for the entire span of geer week 2014 and I have started this blog to document my Chronicles.
My set-up
My living conditions will be cramped but fairly comfortable. I have a sleeping bag on the couch and I have bought a decent amount of food to hold me over for the week. Our club room is one of the biggest ones in the building but it is still very stuffy. There is no well-functioning ventilation so as soon as there is more than one person in the room it heats up to unbearable temperatures. This is my greatest fear going into this because I do not deal well with heat. In hopes to minimize my overheating I have shaved off all of my chest and back hair, however I fear it will not be enough. I have no idea what my first night will hold but I will put up a post in the morning describing it. I am hoping to do two blog posts a day during this week to give an in-depth understanding of my adventure.

On this day, the team leader went over the milestone 1 documentation and assigned a task to all members of the team. Along with assigning the tasks, the team leader also assigned due dates to each task in order to make sure that this milestone would be turned in on time.


Encoding Xml Decode
Background
I plan to explore a number of Go packages. These will often come with useful samples or utilities. Enjoy!
All the code for this post is in this repo.
A Generic XML Parser
The first example will be a generic parser: parseAny.go
.
This example will parse any XML, identify all element and attributes
and output a CSV file as shown. The input XML for this is below.
The depth of an element and the element type are two necessary ingredients to create a pretty printer Go program.
While this code may be useful to get a quick understanding of content of an XML file, its likely to be more valuable as a starting point to tweak and make into something you need.
Here is the input XML for the above:
<?target instructions?>

DPKG-GENBUILDDEPS(1) DPKG-GENBUILDDEPS(1) NAME dpkg-genbuilddeps - generate a list of packages used to build this pack‐ age SYNOPSIS dpkg-genbuilddeps [arg ...] DESCRIPTION This program is a wrapper around dpkg-depcheck(1). It should be run from the top of a Debian build tree. It calls dpkg-buildpackage with any arguments given on the command line, and by tracing the execution of this, it determines which non-essential packages were used during the package building. This can be useful in determining what the Build- Depends control fields should contain. It does not determine which pack‐ ages were used for the arch independent parts of the build and which for the arch dependent parts, not does it attempt to determine which versions of packages are required. It should be able to run under fakeroot rather than being run as root, as fakeroot dpkg-genbuilddeps, or dpkg-genbuild‐ deps -rfakeroot. This program requires the build-essential package to be installed. If it is not, please use dpkg-depcheck directly, with a command such as dpkg-depcheck --all dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b -rfakeroot ... All this program itself does is essentially to run the command: dpkg-depcheck -b dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b -rfakeroot [arg ...] SEE ALSO The Debian Policy Manual, sections on Build-Depends etc., dpkg- depcheck(1) and fakeroot(1). AUTHOR The original dpkg-genbuilddeps was written by Ben Collins<EMAIL_ADDRESS>The current version is a simple wrapper around dpkg-depcheck written by Bill Allombert<EMAIL_ADDRESS>This man‐ ual page was written by Julian Gilbey<EMAIL_ADDRESS>DEBIAN Debian Utilities DPKG-GENBUILDDEPS(1)

We are company number 09894328 registered in England & Wales.
Our registered office is at 20-22, Wenlock Road, London, N1 7GU.
This is a notice to inform you of our policy about all information that we record about you. It covers both information that could identify you and information that could not.
We are extremely concerned to protect your privacy and confidentiality. We understand that all users of our web site are quite rightly concerned to know that their data will not be used for any purpose unintended by them, and will not accidentally fall into the hands of a third party.
Our policy is both specific and strict. It is based on a template from Net Lawman (www.netlawman.co.uk) that complies with UK law and meets the additional guidelines set out by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. It If you think our policy falls short of your expectations or that we are failing to abide by our policy, do please tell us via our contact form or via post.
We regret that if there are one or more points below with which you are not happy, your only recourse is to leave our web site immediately.
Except as set out below, we do not share, or sell, or disclose to a third party, any personally identifiable information collected at this site.
Here is a list of the information we collect from you, either through our web site or because you give it to us in some other way, and why it is necessary to collect it:
1. Personal information
This includes basic identification and contact information, such as your name and contact details and also includes all information given to us in the course of your business and ours, such as information you give us in your capacity as our client. We undertake to preserve the confidentiality of the information and of the terms of our relationship. It is not used for any other purpose. We expect you to reciprocate this policy.
This information is used:
1.1. to provide you with the services available on the website;
1.2. for verify your identity for security purposes;
1.3. for marketing our services and products;
1.4. information which does not identify any individual may be used in a general way by us or third parties, to provide class information, for example relating to demographics or usage of a particular page or service.
We keep information, which forms part of our business record for a minimum of six years. That is because we may need it in some way to support a claim or defence in court. That is also the period within which our tax collecting authorities may demand to know it.
2. Market place information
When we obtain information from you specifically to enable you to buy a service offered on our web site by some other person, we assume that in giving us your information, you are also giving us permission to pass it to the relevant person, as in the case of purchasing of opening repertoires made available by third parties.
3. Your domain name and e-mail address
This information is recognised by our servers and the pages that you visit are recorded. We shall not under any circumstances, divulge your e-mail address to any person who is not an employee or contractor of ours and who does not need to know, either generally or specifically. This information is used:
3.1. to correspond with you or deal with you as you expect;
3.2. in a collective way not referable to any particular individual, for the purpose of quality control and improvement of our site;
3.3. to send you news about the services to which you have signed up;
3.4. to tell you about other of our services or services of sister web sites.
4.  We do not specifically use that information except to allow it to be read, but you will see in our terms and conditions that we reserve a right to use it in any way we decide.
5. Website usage information
We may use software embedded in our website (such as JavaScript) to collect information about pages you view and how you have reached them, what you do when you visit a page, the length of time you remain on the page, and how we perform in providing content to you.
6. Financial information relating to your credit cards
This information is never taken by us either through our website or otherwise. At the point of payment, you are transferred to a secure page on the website of PayPal or some other reputable payment service provider. That page may be dressed in our “livery”, but it is not controlled by us. Our staff and contractors never have access to it.
7. Note on padlock symbols and other trust marks
Many companies offer certification and an icon or other small graphic to prove to site visitors that the site is safe. Some certify to a high level of safety. Others are more concerned to take our money than to provide a useful service. We do not handle information about your credit card so do not subscribe to any such service.
8. Third party advertising
At this point in time we do not take any third party advertisements.
9. Third party content
Our web site is a publishing medium in that anyone may register and then publish information about himself or some other person. We do not moderate or control what is posted. If you complain about any of the content on our web site, we shall investigate your complaint. If we feel, it may be justified, we shall remove it while we investigate. Free speech is a fundamental right, so we have to make a judgment as to whose right will be obstructed: yours, or that of the person who posted the content which offends you. If we think, your complaint is vexatious or without any basis, we shall not correspond with you about it.
10. Information we obtain from third parties
Although we do not disclose your personal information to any third party (except as set out in this notice), we do receive data which is indirectly made up from your personal information, from software services such as Google Analytics and others. No such information is identifiable to you.
11. Content you provide to us with a view to be used by third party
If you provide information to us with a view to it being read, copied, downloaded, or used by other people, we accept no responsibility for what that third party may do with it. It is up to you to satisfy yourself about the privacy level of every person who might see your information. If it is available to all the World, neither we nor you have no control whatever as to how it is used.

12.9. to store your personal information so that you do not have to provide it afresh when you visit the site next time. This cookie will last for 90 days.
12.10. to enable you to watch videos we have placed on YouTube. YouTube will not store personally identifiable cookie information when you use YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode.
13. Sending a message to our support system
When you send a message, we collect the data you have given to us in that message in order to obtain confirmation that you are entitled to receive the information and to provide to you the information you need.

We do not keep any personally identifiable information associated with your message, such as your name or email address.
14. Complaining
When we receive a complaint, we record all the information you have given to us. We use that information to resolve your complaint. If your complaint reasonably requires us to contact some other person, we may decide to give to that other person some of the information contained in your complaint. We do this as infrequently as possible, but it is a matter for our sole discretion as to whether we do give information, and if we do, what that information is.
We may also compile statistics showing information obtained from this source to assess the level of service we provide, but not in a way that could identify you or any other person.
15. Job application and employment
If you send us information in connection with a job application, we may keep it for up to three years in case we decide to contact you at a later date.
If we employ you, we collect information about you and your work from time to time throughout the period of your employment. This information will be used only for purposes directly relevant to your employment. After your employment has ended, we will keep your file for six years before destroying or deleting it.
16. Re-marketing
We may use re-marketing from time to time. This involves Google or some other supplier placing a tag or marker on your website in order to be able to serve to you an advert for our products / services when you visit some other website.
17. Affiliate information (Repertoire Publishers)
This is information given to us by you in your capacity as an affiliate of us or a customer or client of ours. Such information is retained for business use only. We undertake to preserve the confidentiality of the information and of the terms of our relationship. It is not used for any other purpose. We expect any affiliate to agree to reciprocate this policy. As an exception to this, we have the right to disclose your first name and URL of your affiliate connection to other affiliates and to any other person or organisation, on and off site. The reason is solely to enable us to mention winners and others whose performance as an affiliate is in some way outstanding.
18. Use of site by children
We do not market to children, nor do we sell products or services for purchase by children. We do sell products and services for end use by children, but for purchase by adults. If you are under 18, you may use our site only with consent from a parent or guardian.
19. Disclosure to Government and their agencies
We are subject to the law like everyone else. We may be required to give information to legal authorities if they so request or if they have the proper authorisation such as a search warrant or court order.
20. Compliance with the law
This confidentiality policy has been compiled so as to comply with the law of every jurisdiction in which we aim to do business. If you think it fails to satisfy the law of your country, we should like to hear from you, but ultimately it is your choice as to whether you wish to use our website.
21. Review or update personally identifiable information
At any time you may review or update the personally identifiable information that we hold about you, by contacting us at the address below. To better safeguard your information, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections to your information.

Accordingly data obtained within the UK may be “processed” outside the UK and data obtained in any other country may be processed within or outside that country.
If you have any question regarding the privacy policy, please contact us.
