Hi my name is James. I build websites and web applications designed to make things people do everyday easier and more efficient. This reduces time wasted on tedious tasks and allow people to focus on the task at hand.
Front Burner: Deep Dive Full Stack Bootcamp
Front Burner: Checking online job boards and applying to the opportunities that pique my interest
Back Burner: LinkedIn Profile
Back Burner: Personal Portfolio Website
I had a really great time playing Forbidden Island with my team. Although it was my first time playing the game, it was really fun figuring it out with my team members. Nobody really stood out as the "quiet one" or the "one who tries to take everything over" so that was really nice. It seems like my team is really well balanced and everyone has something to offer. Our group is communicating well and I don't think we will have any issues working together.
Dear Lynn,
I would like to thank you for the opportunity to volunteer my website development services for Sojourners. Please be aware your organization will be responsible for the server fees to hang the website on the internet once complete. Other than that, there will be no charges for development.
To begin, Lynn, we will have to schedule a time to discuss what you would like on the website. As well, I will need all imagery and verbiage you would like to be included in the site prior to production.
I am available to meet with you on _______ or _______, dates. Please let me know if these times work for you.
I look forward to meeting with you soon, Lynn. Please feel free to telephone or text me at<PHONE_NUMBER> for any reason whatsoever.
Respectfully yours,
James Ticer
Week 0: My first week here at Deep Dive has been amazing! It's so nice to get to know everybody and see all of the different personalities. This week started out with some review on creating and deploying to repositories. We then learned about creating personas and use/case interaction flows. It was really fun to work in groups while designing our personas. We then moved on to databases and learned about their entities, and their corresponding attributes. We then learned about Entity Relationship Diagrams, foreign/primary keys and some commands in mySQL.
Week 1: My second week here at Deep Dive has been a blast! It seems like things have really started to pick up pace, however, although it may be challenging, it has been just as rewarding. This week we chose photos to represent how we see ourselves now, and how we see ourselves two years in the future. It was really cool to visualize where we want to be, and take a chance to think about it's going to feel like. The picture I chose to represent myself currently was a photo of a man being blasted from underneath with a massive water fountain. I felt this represented me because of the massive amount of information that I've been absorbing. The image I chose to represent myself in the future is of a cat sitting comfortably in a chair confidently analyzing a situation. I felt like this represents me in the future because the cat is calm, cool, collected, and most importantly not being blasted with a massive water fountain. This week we also began learning Object Oriented PHP, more specifically about classes, getter and setter methods, traits, constructor methods, and composer.json files. It has been a lot of material but after reading a ton of documentation, and getting some practice under my belt, I feel like I'm starting to learn the basics. Another one of our assignments this week was to research our web presence on Google. We were instructed to find our online identity, channels, and the content within those channels. From this exercise I discovered that my web presence is shared equally with my father as we share the same name. The same profiles come up, LinkedIn, FaceBook, Ancestry.com. However there is a blank profile for James Ticer that comes up under my dad's but it's not mine. This is definitely something I should look into and fix sooner rather than later.
Week 2: This week we wrapped up our Data Design Projects, started the CSS Challenge, and were assigned to our capstone groups. Overall it was a very exciting and eventful week. I'm really excited to be branching off into our capstone groups, and I look forward to learning more about everyone on my team. We also had many different guest speakers this week and it was really interesting to learn more about the software industry from their perspectives. As part of our homework this week we were asked to reflect on a couple of different questions. I went ahead and added each question and my response below: "Has anyone ever told you that you have potential? do you believe it? why or why not?" My response is "Yes, people have told me that I have potential. Yes, I do believe them. I believe them because life has thrown a lot of really challenging problems at me, but I've stayed strong and pulled through, even when I didn’t think it was possible." The next question is "What are internal and external factors keeping you from achieving your goal? how can you over come them?" My response, "Currently the only external factor holding me back is being in-between jobs, this can be solved by working hard and using my time during Bootcamp as efficiently as possible. The only internal factor holding me back is anxiety, this can be remedied by developing a regular meditation practice that encourages me to live in the present moment." The next question was "how do you create value for others? " My response, "I strive to let my passions encourage me to take action and drive me forward; I hope that by living my life in such a way I am able to create a tangible value in the lives of others".
Week 3: We're almost half way through the Bootcamp and my experience has been fantastic so far. This week we had some wonderful presentations about preparing yourself for the workforce and avoiding Impostor Syndrome. We also started digging deeper into our capstone projects and were able to get a lot of the coding for the classes done over the weekend. I would say the most challenging part of this week was the assessment we had on Friday. It was really stressful leading up to, and during the test, but afterwords I had such a sense of relief. We also started learning about angular on Friday in preparation for Angular Attack next week. Im really excited that our whole group has decided to join in and I look forward to learning more about Angular 6 and building the majority of our Capstone's front end together.
Week 4: Week four was jam packed to say the least. We ended up doing Angular Attack over the weekend and it was really great to get the opportunity to get ahead a little bit. We spent a lot of time covering RESTful APIs and covering some basic Java Script. It's been a really great time so far, and I've been learning more than I ever thought was possible. The hardest part of the week was at the end when we were doing Angular, but it was really helpful and it was a fantastic opportunity to practice "learning how to learn". I'm looking forward to starting unit testing this week and getting some final details added to the class I'm working on as my part of the Capstone Project.
Demo Day:It was really intimidating to think about giving a presentation to a large crowd. It was my first time being in front of so many people and it ended up going really well. It was really exciting to get such good feedback from so many people, and having people actually approaching me for interviews was a huge confidence boost. I'm really excited to get out there and start getting some interviews and coffees planned, and I'm extremely excited for what the future holds.


Below is the setup used to develop and test the example code.
The example code was developed and tested using the following environment.
Each Blender material used to build mill-scene.egg
has five textures in the following order.
By having the same maps in the same positions for all models, the shaders can be generalized, reducing the need to duplicate code.
If an object uses its vertex normals, a "flat blue" normal map is used.
Here is an example of a flat normal map. The only color it contains is flat blue (red = 128, green = 128, blue = 255)
. This color represents a unit (length one) normal pointing in the positive z-axis (0, 0, 1)
.
(0, 0, 1) =
( round((0 * 0.5 + 0.5) * 255)
, round((0 * 0.5 + 0.5) * 255)
, round((1 * 0.5 + 0.5) * 255)
) =
(128, 128, 255) =
( round(128 / 255 * 2 - 1)
, round(128 / 255 * 2 - 1)
, round(255 / 255 * 2 - 1)
) =
(0, 0, 1)
Here you see the unit normal (0, 0, 1)
converted to flat blue (128, 128, 255)
and flat blue converted to the unit normal. You'll learn more about this in the normal mapping technique.
Up above is one of the specular maps used. The red and blue channel work to control the amount of specular reflection seen based on the camera angle. The green channel controls the shininess factor. You'll learn more about this in the lighting and fresnel factor sections.
The reflection and refraction textures mask off the objects that are either reflective, refractive, or both. For the reflection texture, the red channel controls the amount of reflection and the green channel controls how clear or blurry the reflection is.
The example code uses Panda3D as the glue between the shaders. This has no real influence over the techniques below, meaning you'll be able to take what you learn here and apply it to your stack or game engine of choice. Panda3D does provide some conveniences. I have pointed these out so you can either find an equivalent convenience provided by your stack or replicate it yourself, if your stack doesn't provide something equivalent.
Three Panda3D configurations were changed for the purposes of the demo program. You can find these in config.prc. The configurations changed were gl-coordinate-system default
, textures-power-2 down
, and textures-auto-power-2 1
. Refer to the Panda3D configuration page in the manual for more details.
Panda3D defaults to a z-up, right-handed coordinate system while OpenGL uses a y-up, right-handed system. gl-coordinate-system default
keeps you from having to translate between the two inside your shaders. textures-auto-power-2 1
allows us to use texture sizes that are not a power of two if the system supports it. This comes in handy when doing SSAO and other screen/window sized related techniques since the screen/window size is usually not a power of two. textures-power-2 down
downsizes our textures to a power of two if the system only supports texture sizes being a power of two.

HeroModifier
public final class HeroModifier
Undocumented
-
Undocumented
Declaration
Swift
public init(applyFunction:@escaping (inout HeroTargetState) -> Void)
-
Apply modifiers directly to the view at the start of the transition. The modifiers supplied here won’t be animated. For source views, modifiers are set directly at the beginning of the animation. For destination views, they replace the target state (final appearance).
Declaration
Swift
public static func beginWith(_ modifiers: [HeroModifier]) -> HeroModifier
-
Undocumented
Declaration
Swift
public static func beginWith(modifiers: [HeroModifier]) -> HeroModifier
-
Undocumented
Declaration
Swift
public static func beginWith(_ modifiers: HeroModifier...) -> HeroModifier
-
Use global coordinate space.
When using global coordinate space. The view become a independent view that is not a subview of any view. It won’t move when its parent view moves, and won’t be affected by parent view’s attributes.
When a view is matched, this is automatically enabled. The
source
modifier will also enable this.Global coordinate space is default for all views prior to version 0.1.3
Declaration
Swift
public static var useGlobalCoordinateSpace: HeroModifier
-
ignore all heroModifiers attributes for a view’s direct subviews.
Declaration
Swift
public static var ignoreSubviewModifiers: HeroModifier
-
ignore all heroModifiers attributes for a view’s subviews.
- recursive: if false, will only ignore direct subviews’ modifiers. default false.
Declaration
Swift
public static func ignoreSubviewModifiers(recursive: Bool = false) -> HeroModifier
-
Will create snapshot optimized for different view type. For custom views or views with masking, useOptimizedSnapshot might create snapshots that appear differently than the actual view. In that case, use .useNormalSnapshot or .useSlowRenderSnapshot to disable the optimization.
This modifier actually does nothing by itself since .useOptimizedSnapshot is the default.
Declaration
Swift
public static var useOptimizedSnapshot: HeroModifier
-
Create snapshot using snapshotView(afterScreenUpdates:).

getting started with golang part 2
Part 2
Lesson 11
package main
import "fmt"
var i int
var c, python, java bool
func main() {
fmt.Println(i, c, python, java)
}
The var
statement declares a list of variables; as in function argument lists, the type is last.
ORDER: ‘var’ > name > ‘type’
The above would print 0 false false false
Moving on
Lesson 12
package main
import "fmt"
var i, j int = 1, 2
var c, python, java = true, false, "no!"
func main() {
fmt.Println(i, j, c, python, java)
}
A var declaration can include initializers, one per variable.
If an initializer is present, the type can be omitted; the variable will take the type of the initializer.
The above would print 1 2 true false no!
Moving on
Lesson 13
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
var i, j int = 1, 2
k := 3
c, python, java := true, false, "no!"
fmt.Println(i, j, k, c, python, java)
}
Inside a function, the := short assignment statement can be used in place of a var declaration with implicit type.
Outside a function, every construct begins with a keyword (var, func, and so on) and the := construct is not available.
”:=” means that we can throw a var declaration INSIDE a func
REF Implicit Type
Moving on
Lesson 14
package main
import (
"fmt"
"math/cmplx"
)
var (
ToBe bool = false
MaxInt uint64 = 1<<64 - 1
z complex128 = cmplx.Sqrt(-5 + 12i)
)
func main() {
const f = "%T(%v)\n"
fmt.Printf(f, ToBe, ToBe)
fmt.Printf(f, MaxInt, MaxInt)
fmt.Printf(f, z, z)
}
bool
string
int int8 int16 int32 int64
uint uint8 uint16 uint32 uint64 uintptr
byte // alias for uint8
rune // alias for int32
// represents a Unicode code point
float32 float64
complex64 complex128
Moving on
Lesson 15
package main
import (
"fmt"
"math"
)
func main() {
var x, y int = 3, 4
var f float64 = math.Sqrt(float64(3*3 + 4*4))
var z int = int(f)
fmt.Println(x, y, z)
}
The expression T(v) converts the value v to the type T.
Some numeric conversions:
var i int = 42
var f float64 = float64(i)
var u uint = uint(f)
Or, put more simply:
i := 42
f := float64(i)
u := uint(f)
Unlike in C, in Go assignment between items of different type requires an explicit conversion. Try removing the float64 or int conversions in the example and see what happens.
Moving on.
Lesson 16
package main
import "fmt"
const Pi = 3.14
func main() {
const World = "世界"
fmt.Println("Hello", World)
fmt.Println("Happy", Pi, "Day")
const Truth = true
fmt.Println("Go rules?", Truth)
}
Constants are declared like variables, but with the const keyword. Constants can be character, string, boolean, or numeric values. Constants cannot be declared using the := syntax.
Constants are by convention Capital cased -
Moving on
Lesson 17
package main
import "fmt"
const (
Big = 1 << 100
Small = Big >> 99
)
func needInt(x int) int { return x*10 + 1 }
func needFloat(x float64) float64 {
return x * 0.1
}
func main() {
fmt.Println(needInt(Small))
fmt.Println(needFloat(Small))
fmt.Println(needFloat(Big))
//fmt.Println(needInt(Big))
}
Numeric constants are high-precision values. An untyped constant takes the type needed by its context. Try printing needInt(Big) too.
NOTE: What are high-precision values?
Moving On
Lesson 18
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
sum := 0
for i := 0; i < 10; i++ {
sum += i
}
fmt.Println(sum)
}
Go has only one looping construct, the for loop.
The basic for loop looks as it does in C or Java, except that the ( ) are gone (they are not even optional) and the { } are required.
NOTE: DON’T Bracket for loops
Moving On
Lesson 19
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
sum := 1
for ; sum < 1000; {
sum += sum
}
fmt.Println(sum)
}
As in C or Java, you can leave the pre and post statements empty. NOTE: probably shouldn’t use this as this might be hard to debug or differenciate.
Moving On
Lesson 20
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
sum := 1
for sum < 1000 {
sum += sum
}
fmt.Println(sum)
}
At that point you can drop the semicolons: C’s while is spelled for in Go.
NOTE: hmmm, not really got a preference in using this while for looping right now~
Moving On.
Lesson 21
package main
func main() {
for {
}
}
If you omit the loop condition it loops forever, so an infinite loop is compactly expressed.

Calls for vaccinations after suspected outbreak of mumps at Nottinghamshire school
Around 16 suspected cases have been reported
by Joseph LockerHealth officials are urging parents to make sure their children are vaccinated after a suspected outbreak of mumps at a secondary school in Nottinghamshire.
Around 16 sixth-form students from the Toot Hill School in Bingham have fallen ill with symptoms usually indicative of the viral mumps infection.
The sixth-form college currently has around 380 students and the school informed Public Health England's East Midlands protection team about the potential outbreak on Friday, November 15.
The viral infection is usually recognised by painful swelling of glands in an infected person's face, sometimes referred to as "hamster face", the NHS says.
Sandy Paley, the headteacher at Toot Hill School, said: "The school has distributed the official Public Health England advice to all parents and staff and are reinforcing the guidance to our students in school.
"Our first priority is always the well-being and health of our students and we are continuing to monitor the situation closely."
Public Health England has urged teenagers and young adults, aged 15 to 24, to get vaccinated against the infection by having the MMR vaccine.
The health body is working with the school to explain to children why the vaccination is important.
Dr Vanessa MacGregor, consultant in health protection at PHE, said it is important people have had two doses of the MMR vaccine.
She added: "We have seen a rise in the figures recently and teenagers and young adults who have not had two doses of MMR vaccine are particularly vulnerable.
"Young adults who have not received the MMR or only received one dose should ensure that they take up the offer of MMR vaccination.
"However, it’s not just students who are at risk and we would urge everyone who hasn’t received two doses of MMR vaccine to do so. MMR also gives immunity to measles and rubella."
Other symptoms of mumps include headaches, joint pain and swelling of a parotid glands in the neck.
While the infection is not usually serious, it can lead to complications such as glandular fever and tonsillitis.


Man who shot, wounded school bus driver sentenced to prison
by Associated PressMINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A Minnesota man who shot and wounded a school bus driver on a Minneapolis freeway during a snowstorm has been sentenced to more than seven years in prison.
Thirty-two-year-old Kenneth Lilly, of St. Paul, pleaded guilty in August to first-degree assault for the February attack that left Thomas Benson deaf in one ear and unable to continue working as a bus driver due to nerve damage in his hand. Lilly was sentenced Friday to 86 months.
Authorities say Benson was trying to merge onto the highway when his bus scraped Lilly's car, although Benson was unaware.  A girl on the bus was not hurt.
Defense attorneys asked for three years, citing Lilly’s “documented history of cognitive limitations.”
___
This story has been corrected to show that Benson was unaware his bus scraped Lilly’s car.


FAQ
How to change the project name and description?
On desktop, edit package.json. On mobile - config.xml
How to remove the loader?
- Open settings.js
- Change the loaderOnLaunch to false
- Set default connection settings below. After that Involt will connect to selected device on launch.
- Enjoy not selecting the device each time when app is launched.
- Remember that loader is recommended when sending the project to others.
How to change the desktop window dimensions?
Open package.json and change width or height. To run app on fullscreen uncomment the fullscreen parameter.
Debug mode
Debug mode prints to console additional informations about what is happening in Involt and connection settings. To turn on debug mode open settings.js and change debugMode to true.
Adding Involt to existing layout. What should I do?
- Injecting interactions will not change the existing layout and there is no need of rewriting your project.
- Rename your index.html file to app.html as project homepage. Look what scripts and assets are required in head section for your subpages.
- You can remove the Involt CSS stylesheet but remember that some UI elements like switch or bar requires their styling to work correctly.
- With hardware, just adapt your project to Involt sketch and its functions. It's easy but requires some planning.
How should I adapt my project from desktop to mobile?
- It's easier to work on desktop and then pack into mobile version. You can set the window dimensions to your target device and preview the layout. There is no point of uploading to Phonegap Build each time.
- You should work with responsive design from beginning. By doing it correctly there is no need to make changes in layout.
- Involt without additional plugins works fine with Phonegap. Be aware of some quirks in Phonegap.
- Try building layout without Involt interactions and use real time preview in Phonegap Developer App without connection.
- Don't pack node-webkit files to Phonegap Build, they are useless on mobile
- Bluetooth communication is same as on desktop but remember that mobile device may have lower range and may work slower.
Should I start working on app or device?
There is no golden rule as it really depends on project. Sometimes there are more tangible interactions than those on screen and vice versa. Think about the amount of potential changes during development on both sides.
Involt limitations
- All limitations related to node-webkit and cordova (on mobile).
- Project is based on web technologies but keep in mind that Involt does not support online communication so you can't develop working IoT solution(maybe in future).
- IOS and Bluetooth LE are not supported.
- Only one device can be connected to app at once.
Are there any devices that won't work?
I never heard of any issues with particular Arduino version. With Bluetooth I can be 100% sure that HC-05, HC-06 and XM-15B works fine. However, I never received feedback about issues with other Bluetooth modules. I know that specific Android devices have issues with Bluetooth but it's not related to Involt. I will really appreciate any feedback if it works (or not) on particular Android device and system versions. I'm working on Galaxy S5 with Android 6.0.1 (previously with 5.1.1).
Known issues
When I launch my app nothing happens
- Are the Involt files unpacked in main folder so package.json and nw.exe are in same folder?
- Involt works only within Node-webkit and Phonegap. It will not work in your browser.
- Check Javascript code, especially errors in console. Errors in your code will block framework communication.
My device doesn't respond when connected
- Assuming that device is plugged correctly and bluetooth is connected and paired - mostly it's a problem while changing serial baudrate in serial begin and inconsistenty with baudrate in settings.js. You shouldn't make any changes in involt-basic.ino functions unless you know what you want to do.
- Maybe there are some pin numbers not consistent between app and device or Involt arrays are too short causing issues within Arduino code.
- Reopen the bluetooth adapter and open the app again. Involt sometimes (rarely) throws "Invalid UUID" error.
- Remember that Arduino Leonardo/Micro requires change from Serial to Serial1 while using bluetooth connected to hardware serial pins.
Device send strings with glitches
Usually it's buffer overload. Try higher delays between sending long strings or while sending multiple strings at once (even small strings requires some delay). It's common issue while switching from serial to Bluetooth. Also check higher baudrate and your bluetooth range.
Device receives incomplete strings
Increase involt array length in Arduino sketch. It's possible that you try to send too much data at once but uncontrolled buffer overload is issue while sending from device to app.
Device/app latency is too slow
- Obviously this could be caused by too many (too long?) delays in your sketch so it's blocking the communication. Consider using millis instead of delay.
- Try increasing baudrate.
- The update rate affects smoothness of updating HTML read elements. Default value is compromise between smoothness and cpu usage. Lower value will update objects almost in real time but will affect CPU usage (important especially on mobile). To change this open settings.js and change updateRate. This will not affect the connection bitrate.
- Check Bluetooth range.
Can I use software serial for Bluetooth?
No, it's too slow. I always connect my BT directly to hardware serial pins and never had any issues. I don't use additional resistors or logic-level converters but you should always check for your module if it's required.


To increase performance even further, place your stylesheets in <head>-area and the javascript before the </body>-tag at the end of the document.

V6 (read “five six”, the first inversion of V) is also a commonly used inverted chord in popular music. By using an inversion of V, the usual strong tendency to go back to I is significantly reduced. V6 can precede a I chord but this would usually be in the middle of a progression where it is not desired to have a “cadence” feel to it. One very common use of V6 is to directly expand from I. Listen to “You Look Wonderful Tonight” by Eric Clapton for an example of this usage:
It is also typical to follow the V6 with a vi chord. In the same way that I6 serves as a bridge between ii and IV, V6 can serve as a bridge between I and vi. For an example of how this sounds, listen to “Can You Feel The Love Tonight” by Elton John.
This song uses the common I → V → vi → IV progression, but the V6 gives a more subtle feel to the V. “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith also starts with this same progression, but instead of using the IV as a cadence to I, they go to I6 instead.
Because the I is played in an inversion, the progression doesn’t feel like it’s over. The song then uses I6 to go to ii, prolonging the phrase in anticipation of a nice cadence to V.
The V6 chord has what scale degree in the bass?
In “Ever Ever After” by Carrie Underwood (from the motion picture Enchanted), the bass line ascends stepwise all the way from the initial I6 to the cadence on V. Write down the appropriate chords for the ?s.
I6 → IV → V → vi → V6 → I → ii → I6 → IV → V. Below you can listen to the song with the missing chords filled in.

For the fennel and saffron broth, bring the stock, saffron and pastis to the boil.
Meanwhile, heat half of the butter in a frying pan and fry the fennel and shallots over a low heat for 2-3 minutes, or until softened.
Pour in the white wine, bring to the boil and continue to cook until the volume of the liquid has reduced by half.
Add the stock mixture to the pan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering and simmer for 1-2 minutes. Whisk in the remaining butter and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir in the chives and set aside.
For the fennel frond tempura, heat the oil in a deep heavy-based frying pan until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns brown when dropped into it. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)
Whisk the cornflour and sparkling water together in a bowl to form a smooth batter. Dip the fennel fronds into the batter, shaking off any excess, then fry in the vegetable oil for 20-30 seconds until pale golden-brown and crisp. (Do this is batches if necessary.)
Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper. Season, to taste, with salt.
For the trout darnes, season the trout, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan and fry the trout darnes for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
Remove the trout darnes from the pan and set aside to rest. Squeeze over lemon juice, to taste.
To serve, reheat the fennel and saffron broth, if necessary, and ladle into four shallow soup bowls. Top each with a trout darne and some fennel frond tempura.


One of my favorite things to do in my free time is to spend it with my closest friends!
Shown above are a few of my friends from where I grew up. I miss them a lot and hopefully I get to see them over break.
In this picture are some of my friends that I made this year. I'm so grateful that I met people like them.
Another thing I enjoy doing in my free time is playing sports. Growing up I always played a lot of sports all year round including track, basketball, and volleyball for a few years.
I am the youngest of 4. I have two older half sisters and one brother who's only 2 years older. I mostly grew up with my older brother because my two older sisters were a lot older and had moved out by the time I got to middle school.
Pictured here is my mom, my dad, my brother, and I.
 I am originally from NJ but moved to Charleston, SC August of 2019. I moved in order to get residency in SC because USC was the school I wanted to go to but paying out-of-state tuition was not in my budget. I then transferred to USC this year and am very excited to continue my education here. I'm not quite sure what I want to do after school but I really hope I decide soon :)

Only women and girls can be victims and survivors of sex trafficking.

Traffickers target victims they don't know.
Sex Trafficking only happens in illegal or underground industries.
Human trafficking does not only involve kidnapping or physically forcing someone into a situation.In reality, most traffickers use psychological means such as, tricking, defrauding, manipulating or threatening victims into providing commercial sex or exploitative labour. Many survivors have been trafficked by romatic partners, including spouses and by family memebers, including parents.
One study estimates that as many as half of sex trafficking victims and survivors are male. Advocates believe that percentage may be even higher but that male victims are far less likely to be identified. LGBTQ boys and young men are seen as particularly vulnerable to trafficking.
The most pervasive myth about human trafficking is that it often involves kidnapping or physically forcing someone into a situation. In reality, most traffickers use psychological means such as, tricking, defrauding, manipulating or threatening victims into providing commercial sex or exploitative labor.
Many survivors have been trafficked by romantic partners, including spouses, and by family members, including parents.
Human trafficking cases have been reported and prosecuted in industries including restaurants, cleaning services, construction, factories and more.

[gecode-users] DDS in trunk version : does distinct support self-decomposition?
Martin Mann
mmann at informatik.uni-freiburg.de
Tue Jan 13 19:10:59 CET 2009
Hi,
I am preparing and updating my code for the next release of Gecode to
utilize DDS. For that I update everything to work with the current trunk.
An important question for me at this point: Is the distinct propagator
self-decomposing to work properly with DDS or do I've got to come up
with a 'hacked' version. :)
And concerning that: do you have plans for a set of DDS-dedicated
self-decomposing propagators or a module for this?
Furthermore, in the current trunk the DDS module is not working and
stops compilation on my machine. Is the module stable or currently under
construction? So do I've got to search for the problem on my machine or
just wait for some time for the final changes?
Thanks for your help,
Martin
PS. btw any release plans for 3.0? ;) I wont give up ... *grin*

MUFG likely to deny Softbank loan over Wework bailout
by Anna MeninMitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG), Japan’s largest bank, is reportedly likely to withhold additional loans from Softbank to finance the conglomerate’s $9.5bn (£7.3bn) rescue package for struggling office space firm Wework.
Softbank has asked for around ¥300bn (£2.1bn) additional loans for Japan’s three megabanks – MUFG, Mizuho Financial Group and Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group – in a bid to recoup losses from its large bets on Wework, The Financial Times reported.
Read more: Softbank in talks to take over KPMG’s private members’ club
The technology investment giant is typically a big borrower from Japanese banks, but is seeking further financing as it attempts to reverse Wework’s flagging fortunes.
MUFG may reject Softbank’s request if the new loans are used to bail out Wework, according to the FT.
Softbank offered Wework a $9.5bn financial lifeline in October following its failed initial public offering (IPO).
The package involved Softbank providing $5bn of new debt, injecting $1.5bn equity and an offer to buy up to $3bn WeWork shares in exchange for control of the company.
Softbank had already invested around $10bn in the flexible working space company before the rescue package.
Although Softbank typically has a close relationship with Japanese banks, the country’s top lenders are becoming more cautious about lending to the group given the current turmoil surrounding Wework.
“We have to be very careful about this,” a source close to the loan discussions told Reuters. “Especially if the money goes to WeWork, it will take a long time to conclude the process.”
Read more: New York State Attorney General reportedly investigating Wework
A Softbank spokesperson told Reuters a loan was one of its options but that nothing had yet been decided. All three banks declined its request for comment.
Softbank posted its first quarterly loss in 14 years earlier this month after soured bets on Wework and Uber dragged its Vision Fund to an $8.9bn loss.

Mozilla Appmaker for congratulating winners
July 9, 2014
Mozilla Appmaker making it easier for lot of the thing which we would like to make it in the internet and according to our own design and graphics. In this blog post you will be learning to create a mobile application for Firefox OS or a web app which can be viewed in our browser itself.
Here I would like to share with you the application which has been developed by me with the help of the appmaker tools. The basic idea is to share a message to the winner so he can feel happy.
The basic layout which was made for developing this application is that it should have a text area, then an image which looks catchy and then some space and a button. So when he clicks the button we can display the message.
According to the Appmaker technical terms the most important components required are as follows,
- Text area or Header (1)
- Image (1)
- Spacer(2)
- Button(1)
Steps for designing
- The first step is to give the name for the application. You can click on the unnamed app and dialog comes and in that text box we need to give our desired name.
- The first thing is to place the header (we dont need any text now, so give the Header label a space alone)
- Then place the image box, and give the source of the image you want.
- Then place 2 spacer so you will be getting bigger and enough space.
- Then place the button give the Label name you want, then the Value you want so when you click it will be made to added to the header, if needed change the color of the text and color of the button.
Designing the action
- Click the button, you will be seeing the arrow in the right side. Click on that and choose the color.
- Then Click the Header, the arrow will be in left side click the select the required.
- Then hit the publish button by selecting the 2nd drop down.
Share with your friends, you can be now able to see the app like below.
If feeling lazy to do from first then just Remix


Mediation Process
- How did the 'process over product' concept affect the way you tackled the site redesign and rebuild?
This concept meant that instead of focusing on the product I build, I should instead focus on the learning process of building a website. This is far more important.
The more fun you make your process, the less you actually think about your end-goal, the better your product will be.
- What did you think about meditation before reading chapter 2?
I thought it was a helpful tool that can help calm the mind & allow you to stay present, however I was amazed at some of the findings in chapter 2.
- What new things have you learnt about meditation?
- The Difference between Attention & Meta-Attention. “Attention is something we all understand. William James has a very nice definition for it: “taking possession by the mind, in clear and vivid form.”
“Meta-attention is attention of attention, the ability to pay attention to attention itself”. A good analogy was used about riding a bicycle.
- When the mind is calm and clear at the same time, happiness spontaneously arises. “Alan said the reason is very simple: happiness is the default state of mind. So when the mind becomes calm and clear,
it returns to its default, and that default is happiness. That is it. There is no magic; we are simply returning the mind to its natural state.”
- Meditation is like the Pot analogy & Exercise.
There's no such thing as bad meditation and also both exercise and meditation can both significantly change the quality of your life.” “After a few weeks or months of starting a regular meditation regime, you have
more energy; your mind becomes calmer, clearer, and more joyful; you get sick less; you smile more; your social life improves (because you smile more); and you feel great about yourself. And you don’t even need to sweat".
- Did any of the suggested meditation techniques stand out to you?
Process Model of Mindfulness Mediation. The process starts with Intention. “Start by creating an intention, a reason for wanting to abide in mindfulness.”
The next step is too follow your breath. “The classical analogy of this process is a guard standing at the city gates watching people go in and out of the city. ”
In the state of distraction the first thing to do is simply regain attentional focus by bringing attention back to the process of breathing. The second thing to do is remember
that wandering attention is like flexing your biceps during your gym workout. This is not failure; it is the process of growth and developing powerful mental “muscles.” The third
thing to is become aware of yoour attitude towards yourself. Instead of getting angry at yourself simply shift the attitude towards self-kindness and curiosity. This shift is, by itself,
another meditation. Once again, it is about forming mental habits.” Every time we create an attitude of self-directed kindness, we deepen that habit a little bit more, and if we do it a lot,
we may overcome a lot of our self-hatred and even become our own best friend. Remember Grandma Mind.
- Any other musings?
- The Seven Point Meditation Posture
1. Back straight “like an arrow”
2. Legs crossed in “lotus position”
3. Shoulders relaxed, held up and back, “like a vulture”
4. Chin tucked in slightly, “like an iron hook”
5. Eyes closed or gazing into space
6. Tongue held against the upper palate
7. Lips slightly apart, teeth not clenched
- “Sogyal Rinpoche, a world-renowned Tibetan Buddhist teacher, suggests sitting like a majestic mountain. ”
- The Question to either have your eyes opened or closed during meditation. The book suggests that either, both, and neither
are good. It also suggests that an option is to have your eyes slightly, look slightly downward, and gaze at nothing in particular
- “Breathing as if your life depends on it". "If you can only remember a single phrase in this chapter, remember this, and you will understand mindfulness meditation.”
- The Science behind Mediation. Firstly the study by Richard Davidson and Jon Kabat-Zinn where anxiety was measurably lower in the participants, there was increased activity
in the parts of their brains associated with positive emotions & they developed more antibodies from the flu shots. Secondly, a later study conducted by Heleen Slagter, Antoine Lutz,
Richard Davidson, et al., focused on attention. They found that after just three months of intensive and rigorous training in mindfulness meditation, participants can significantly reduce
their "attentional blink". The theory is that with mindfulness meditation training, one’s brain can learn to process stimuli more efficiently, hence after processing the first salient target,
it still has the mental resources to process the second number. Thirdly, Antoine Lutz showed that adept Buddhist meditators are able to generate high-amplitude gamma brain waves, which are often
associated with high effectiveness in memory, learning, and perception. Better still, these adepts exhibit higher gamma-band activity even at baseline, when they are not meditating, suggesting that
meditation training can change your brain at rest. If you pump iron a lot, you will have bulging muscles even when you are not working out in the gym. Similarly, when you do a lot of meditation training,
you will have strong mental “muscles” of calmness, clarity, and joy even when you are just hanging out. Fourthly, one early study in this field by Jon Kabat-Zinn revealed that mindfulness can greatly accelerate
the healing of a skin condition known as psoriasis. Finally, there is a study that suggests meditation can thicken your neocortex. This study, conducted by Sara Lazar, took MRI snapshots of mindfulness meditators
and non-meditators, and showed that meditators have a thicker cortex in brain regions associated with attention and sensory processing.Of course, these measurements show correlation, not causation, which means it
is entirely possible that people with a thicker cortex in those brain regions just happen to be meditators. However, the study also showed that the longer the meditation subjects have been practicing meditation, the
thicker those parts of their brains are, which suggests that meditation practice is causing those observed changes in the brain.

Testing homapage of B40


My friend S is really into distilling and brewing alcohols. About a month ago he came across a recipe for absinthe, a psychoactive alcoholic drink. He gets most of his recipes from http://homedistiller.org and http://www.feeverte.net/bedel/
S prepared the 'sinthe as follows;
Ingredients:
Wormwood 25g Look in legal herbal high shops
Green Anise 30g Chinese cooking stores
Star Anise 15g Chinese cooking stores
Fennel 30g Chinese cooking stores
Coriander 5g Supermarket
Alcohol at 90% 830Ml
Water 415Ml
1. Bruise (place in a plastic bag and hit it with a hammer) all of the herbs
2. Place them in the 90% alcohol
3. Leave the mixture for 12 to 24 hours
3. Add the 415Ml of water to the mixture (making 1245ml)
4. Distill the whole mixture VERY slowly, using the lowest power setting in a pot still. (Refer to the homedistiller website above for more info on pot stills)
4. Collect the first litre of distillate, which should be around 70% alcohol. This is your absinthe.
Experience:
One night at around 8pm a few weeks ago we took a bottle of 6 shots (30mL per shot) of absinthe (180mL) each with us into the bush. The bottles were diluted with about 70mL of water each. A tablespoon of sugar was also added to each bottle.
We stumbled about 50 meters down a bush track near his house until we found a small waterfall and sat down on a rock. The sinthe tasted amazing, it was like liquid barley sugars and liquorish. It tasted very strong despite the dilution and was white, opaque and slightly greenish. After we had downed the sinthe we sat around for quite a while.
T+10: The first effects were a numbness in the mouth and a slight blurriness of vision. The sky seemed as if it was emitting a bright white glow. All sources of light seemed to be unbelievably strong. Auditory reception seemed to be much more sensitive then usual, S would hear a dog barking in the distance which I couldnít, then I would hear a plane or a dog bark which he couldnít. We could feel the alcohol slightly but only as you would after about three or four beers. It was definitely a different 'buzz' to alcohol. After a while we got up and left, walking back up the bush track back to S's road. When we arrived there I had no scene of direction at all- I had no idea were we were and was very disorientated. We decided not to go straight back to S's house but wander around a while to let the sinthe wear off because his mother was home.
T+15: We walked up the street where I stopped to have a jump on someone's trampoline. We felt happy but not euphoric, the sort of feeling where you want to wander around and be active. This was when the full effects of the sinthe really started to kick in. As we walked up the road we found the strip outside someone's house to contain sand not grass, but on a close inspection it turned out to be grass and it was just the sinthe playing with us. The visual texture was definitely one of sand but it felt like grass. We then decided that some sculptured trees near us were lollypops and we ran over to them to lick. Big mistake as I got taken out by a branch in the face.
T+30: We walked up another street which had a cul-de-sac at the end. When we got to the end of the street and were walking around the cul-de-sac, the street moved with us while the cul-de-sac stayed stationary. We walked faster but could not catch up with the street. When we finally made it my mobile rang and I managed to have a coherent conversation.
T+40: We walked back to S's house where his mum insisted on having a long and very fast conversation with us. I thought that I could control myself enough to seem sober. I walked over to a couch and sat down without noticing the cat under me. S talked to his mum for a while and sat down opposite me. He was really out of it, his eyes were half open and he couldnít sit up properly. In conversation with Sís mum I couldnít tell whether I was speaking very fast or very slowly. We felt really tired and went to bed almost immediately. Falling asleep was no problem although I felt quite nauseous.
S and I woke up after seven hours of sleep feeling fine and not at all hung over. Absinthe is truly amazing and great tasting. Definitely worth doing it again. The buzz of absinthe is remotely comparable to the buzz before a chemical rush kicks in.

There’s a lot to learn in Battlefield 1, but if you’re just starting out, these nine tips can help you get up to fighting strength in a hurry, while you get used to some of the nuances of the classes, the weapons, and the vehicles.
Jumping right into a Battlefield 1 multiplayer battle, especially if you’re new to the series, throws you into the middle of battles with a bunch of unfamiliar weapons, and much more importantly, unfamiliar vehicles. Luckily, the single-player campaign for Battlefield 1 basically acts as a series of tutorials for different situations you’ll experience in multiplayer. Conquering the campaign will help you get acquainted with lots of the stuff you’ll find when you head into multiplayer, and let you cut your teeth on things you’ve never seen before.
Most first-person shooters send you out into the fray to blast enemies, die, respawn, and blast enemies again, with little regard to what’s going on in the big picture of a battle beyond rushing to the next control point or backing up your teammates. Battlefield 1, on the other hand, leans into its class system pretty hard by making a few elements essential to certain battles.
Character classes are nothing new to the Battlefield series, but the classes in Battlefield 1 have been tweaked to make them distinct from one another than in previous games. Each one has a pretty specific job, and particular circumstances in which they are most effective.
Vehicles are a game-changer in some Battlefield games. Used effectively, they can hassle the other team to the point of frustration. Similarly, they can seriously screw up your ability to defend territory and, if left unchecked, can ravage your team and cost you a match.
Through the course of multiplayer battles, you’ll often hear the announcer say something like “There’s a Sentinel kit near your position.” It’s easy to ignore that information, but you shouldn’t — it means there’s an elite class loadout near you, and you should grab it if you can.
More than most shooters, Battlefield 1 is not made for “lone wolf” players. Each multiplayer map starts with the ability to join a “squad” of other players, which allows you to spawn near specific teammates and marks them on your map. You get extra points for helping out your squad with heals and ammo as well. But the overall point of squads is to encourage you to avoid fighting alone, and with huge battles raging that have tons of players in them, you’re always going to be much, much more effective if you’ve got backup.
If you center your crosshairs on an enemy, there’s a button you can hit — RB on Xbox One, R1 on Playstation 4 and Q on PC — to “spot” the enemy. This is basically your character calling out the enemy to your teammates. Spotting an enemy marks them with an indicator that makes them easier to see, but more importantly, it grants that indicator to the rest of your teammates in the vicinity. Suddenly, everyone sees the guy you just watched climb up into a sniper position or who is sprinting across the battlefield to hit an unprotected control point.
This is another obvious one, but for players not used to class-based shooters, it’s easily overlooked. When you get dropped in the middle of a multiplayer match, you’ll have a few seconds to wait until you can respawn. During this time, you’re able to skip straight back to the map where you choose your next spawn point, but don’t do it — instead, check the indicators at the bottom of the screen that tell you if there is a Medic is nearby. If so, you’ll see a distance indicator that will tell you whether they’re approaching you or not. If they are, you want to be there, ready to go, when they arrive.
In some game types, giant death machines called “behemoths” can appear to wreak havoc on your team. These include a huge flying zeppelin, an armored train, and a dreadnought battleship. While these vehicles seem indestructible, they’re definitely not — provided you put enough effort into bringing them down.
