Dengue in Brazil: 484,779 cases in Minas Gerais
by News DeskBy NewsDesk @infectiousdiseasenews
The State Secretariat of Health of Minas Gerais has reported 484,779 confirmed and suspected dengue cases this year, including 153 deaths, according to a Otempo report (computer translated).
This “alarming” numbers prompted health officials to launch a campaign aimed at reinforcing the importance of eliminating outbreaks.
“This year was extremely tough compared to dengue. It was the second worst year, close to what happened in 2016. Maybe this year was the worst in number of hospitalizations and deaths. We need to reinvent ourselves to face Aedes. best weapon is to fight the focus”, Undersecretary of Health Surveillance Dario Brock Ramalho.
According to Health Secretary Carlos Eduardo Amaral, “This year $12 million has been transferred to cities to fight the disease. We plan to pass on some values to support the municipalities. At the beginning for prevention, and later, in case of epidemics. At that time, we already transferred $ 12 million to the municipalities at the beginning of the year. , and should transfer another $ 10 million. This amount of $ 10 million will be for a general form, but already with the guidance of trying to give a stimulus to dengue. And we should spend another $ 12 million by the end of year.”

Movie Review: Contact By Joseph Toscano
-- July 1997 [PG] 150 Minutes, 2.5 hours Directed by Robert Zemeckis Starring Jodie Foster, Matthew McConaughey, John Hurt, Tom Skerrit, James Woods Score: ***** / ***** or 9 / 10 SPOILER WARNING - some of the review may contain information regarding the plot of the movie. If you haven't seen it already, take caution. --
Finally.
After being tortured endlessly with the "explosive summer films" which contain special effects and nothing more, and some other cheesy wannabe dramas, along comes a truly satisfying and thoroughly enjoyable experience. An experience called "CONTACT."
You've read other reviews probably. And most state what a good movie CONTACT was. But it was more than good. It was actually a relaxing, cleansing, refreshing type of "good" because it really showed that the movies still can be movies, not just a show of special effects wizardry or a tiring piece of unimaginative drivel, even despite some raging stinkers that have come along, such as "MR. NANNY" and "8 HEADS IN A DUFFEL BAG."
Now the film, many say, was too long. I don't view it as being too long. I view it as being masterfully stretched out. I loved watching it and taking in every little tiny detail -- not to confuse and boggle the mind (much like MISSION:IMPOSSIBLE did... aye...) but to just make the experience much more enjoyable.
But when it actually comes to scenes in the film, they couldn't have been done better. The very first scene is a majestic trip through our galaxy and beyond -- just to show how small we are in comparison to this great vastness that has been created.
The word creation has meaning in the story, too. When people think of what kind of movie CONTACT was, they usually say it was Sci-fi. And yes it definitely is dealing with science, but it is also a drama of science and religion actually conflicting. This isn't just a movie made for special effects, like I said before, much like Independence Day, it's a move meant to either make you think, or make you more secure in what you believe in.
But just because the movie wasn't made specifically to show off special effects, that doesn't mean that the few special effects contained in the movie weren't spectacular. Though only boasted for a short while, the special effects are perhaps the most amazing effects I have ever seen. They don't simply please the eye, they stir the mind in a fascinating, dark way.  Yes the effects are amazing, but what makes them even more amazing is the fact that they are enclosed in an excellent film.
But, of course, no film is entirely "perfect." There are definitely some things that could have been improved upon. One thing that I personally felt could really use some work is the whole ordeal involving S.R. Hadden. It just didn't make sense when you first saw the man. I mean, I thought he was going to be some evil sadistic character when I first saw him on the screen. But of course the outcome was different. The Palmer Joss character played by McConaughey really needed a little more effort. The characters in some cases were flat and 2-dimensional. But I think the wonder and excellence of the movie cancels out the imperfections.
When it comes to the ending of the movie, I really was satisfied. I've heard that many people were disappointed because of what occurred in the hearing. Yes it was disappointing. But once I heard the comment made by Angela Bassett's character, Rachel, "It recorded 18 hours of static..." I knew that seeing this movie was not a disappointment after all. I was truly satisfied.
Yes, CONTACT is satisfying. It's wonderful. It leaves you with things to think about, and a sense of closure... many other things that just make a movie great. Really, I've never heard such a quiet theater, such thunderous applause, or so many gasps when the "For Carl" screen was shown.
So go see CONTACT, and treat yourself to a good time. ;)

This is a low-lyong, rocky island to the east of Siros and SE of Tinos. It is a popular tourist island, mainly for its beaches, bars and its night life. The architecture of the town perfectly suits its situation and is a much photographed image of Greece. Inspite of the number of tourists, its winding alleys and cosmopolitan atmosphere create a very attractive port of call.
For full details on clearing into our out of Greece see Greek Formalities.
Clearance will need to be carried out at the Old Harbour.
Mooring in the old harbour in front of the town is no longer permitted, and yachts must berth in the marina, about 2 miles north of the town.
The marina is still only partially completed. Only some mooring line are in place and problems can be encountered when using an anchor. No electricity, although the (rusty) pillars are in place. Water and fuel delivered daily by truck. No official Harbour Master and nor are there any charges.
Be aware of strong gusts with Meltemi (up to F10!), normal winds in harbour are about 15-20 kn.

Dense data are stored contiguously in memory, addressed by a single index (the memory address). Array memory ordering schemes translate that single index into multiple indices corresponding to the array coordinates. For example, matrices have two indices: rows and columns. Three-d arrays have three, and so on.
Column-major order is used by Fortran, Matlab, R, and most underlying core linear algebra libraries (BLAS). Sequential address locations are translated into array coordinates i, j, k, … so that the first array coordinates vary most rapidly with address, the next array coordinates less rapidly, and so on. For instance, four address locations 1, 2, 3, 4 are translated into a two by two matrix coordinate system (i, j) as:
address i j
1 1 1
2 2 1
3 1 2
4 2 2
The phrase column-major comes from the matrix example, where sequentially addressed data are laid out sequentially along columns of the matrix.
The concept of “row” and “column” don’t directly apply to n-d arrays, but the same idea holds. For instance the R language lays out sequential addresses from 1, 2, …, 8, into a 2x2x2 3-d array as:
address i j k
1 1 1 1
2 2 1 1
3 1 2 1
4 2 2 1
5 1 1 2
6 2 1 2
7 1 2 2
8 2 2 2
Consider the 3-d case shown above. Given array dimensions d1=2, d2=2, d3=2, a formula that takes 1-based coordinates i, j, k and returns address location a is
a = i + (j - 1) * d1 + (k - 1) * d2 * d1.
Row-major ordering is a different translation between sequential address indices and array coordinates, instead laying sequential data in memory across rows in matrices. Row-major ordering is sometimes called “C” style ordering and column-major ordering “Fortran” style. Python/NumPy refers to the orderings in array flags as C_CONTIGUOUS and F_CONTIGUOUS, respectively. For instance address locations 1, 2, 3, 4 are translated into a 2x2 matrix coordinate system (i, j) as:
address i j
1 1 1
2 1 2
3 2 1
4 2 2
Efficient wrappers to BLAS routines exist for row-major ordered arrays. For completeness, here is a 2x2x2 3-d example layout:
address i j k
1 1 1 1
2 1 1 2
3 1 2 1
4 1 2 2
5 2 1 1
6 2 1 2
7 2 2 1
8 2 2 2
And similarly to above a formula for this example that converts these 1-based array coordinates to address indices is:
a = k + (j - 1) * d3 + (i - 1) * d3 * d2.
See the following notes for a general formula for row- and column-order coordinate to address mapping, but note the use of zero-based indexing.
The Python NumPy library is very general. It can use either row-major or column-major ordered arrays, but it defaults to row-major ordering. NumPy also supports sophisticated views of data with custom strides across non-contiguous regions of memory.
R displays array data with unambiguously-labeled coordinate indices. Python doesn’t show this and displays n-d array data in different order than R (making matters somewhat confusing for R users). Consider the following example that creates and displays identical 4x3x2 arrays in R and Python:
array(1:24, c(4,3,2))
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 1 5 9
## [2,] 2 6 10
## [3,] 3 7 11
## [4,] 4 8 12
##
## , , 2
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 13 17 21
## [2,] 14 18 22
## [3,] 15 19 23
## [4,] 16 20 24
import numpy as np
np.reshape(np.arange(1,25), (4,3,2), "F")
## array([[[ 1, 13],
## [ 5, 17],
## [ 9, 21]],
##
## [[ 2, 14],
## [ 6, 18],
## [10, 22]],
##
## [[ 3, 15],
## [ 7, 19],
## [11, 23]],
##
## [[ 4, 16],
## [ 8, 20],
## [12, 24]]])
It’s easier to know which coordinates go where in R because they are labeled. Python, using column-major ordering, displays the same thing but in a different order where the first indices are grouped together in order. To see that these arrays are, in fact, the same, let’s pick out values along just the first “row”, that is values with a first index of 1 (R) or 0 (Python):
array(1:24, c(4, 3, 2))[1,, ,drop=FALSE]
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 1 5 9
##
## , , 2
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 13 17 21
np.reshape(np.arange(1,25), (4,3,2), "F")[0]
## array([[ 1, 13],
## [ 5, 17],
## [ 9, 21]])
I specified R’s drop=FALSE
argument to preserve array dimensionality above. If we use drop=TRUE
(the default) then R returns a 3x2 array in column-major order–exactly the same result as Python above.
array(1:24, c(4, 3, 2))[1,, ,drop=TRUE]
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 1 13
## [2,] 5 17
## [3,] 9 21
Note that the Python result is a special view of the original array data, not a copy. In this case it’s not stored in contiguous memory addresses and is neither really row- nor column-major. This is shown in the array flags:
np.reshape(np.arange(1,25), (4,3,2), "F")[0].flags
## C_CONTIGUOUS : False
## F_CONTIGUOUS : False
## OWNDATA : False
## WRITEABLE : True
## ALIGNED : True
## UPDATEIFCOPY : False
The reticulate package lets us easily mix R and Python code and data. Recall that R represents all dense arrays in column-major order but Python/NumPy can represent dense arrays much more generally. That difference warrants attention and can easily lead to confusion!
Remember the following things when working with R and Python arrays, especially n-d arrays with n > 2.
Also worth knowing:
Point number 3. introduces the most potential confusion. Let’s look at some examples to explore these points.
The following example creates a 2x2x2 array in Python using native NumPy row-major ordering and imports it into R. Despite the fact that they print out differently, they are in fact the same.
library(reticulate)
np <- import("numpy", convert=FALSE)
(x <- np$arange(1, 9)$reshape(2L, 2L, 2L))
## [[[ 1. 2.]
## [ 3. 4.]]
##
## [[ 5. 6.]
## [ 7. 8.]]]
(y <- py_to_r(x))
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 1 3
## [2,] 5 7
##
## , , 2
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 2 4
## [2,] 6 8
Wait a minute! They look different! But remember Python’s print order is different. The first “rows” (first index values) are grouped together. Let’s pull out elements with first index of 1 in the R result, with and without dropping the unused dimension to show precisely what we’re indexing here:
y[1,,, drop=FALSE]
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 1 3
##
## , , 2
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 2 4
y[1,,, drop=TRUE]
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 1 2
## [2,] 3 4
Note that this is the same as the first block printed in the Python output above! These arrays really are the same in Python and R, respectively. Their apparent differences are merely a result of printing.
Let’s look at this again with another example, this time with an array with different lengths along each dimension to make things even more clear (hopefully). Consider the following 4x3x2 array constructed in Python in row-major order:
np <- import("numpy", convert=FALSE)
(x <- np$reshape(np$arange(1, 25), c(4L, 3L, 2L)))
## [[[ 1. 2.]
## [ 3. 4.]
## [ 5. 6.]]
##
## [[ 7. 8.]
## [ 9. 10.]
## [ 11. 12.]]
##
## [[ 13. 14.]
## [ 15. 16.]
## [ 17. 18.]]
##
## [[ 19. 20.]
## [ 21. 22.]
## [ 23. 24.]]]
(y <- py_to_r(x))
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 1 3 5
## [2,] 7 9 11
## [3,] 13 15 17
## [4,] 19 21 23
##
## , , 2
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 2 4 6
## [2,] 8 10 12
## [3,] 14 16 18
## [4,] 20 22 24
Again, they look quite different but the R and Python arrays are really the same. Let’s pick out the sub-array with third index = 0 (Python), equivalently the third index = 1 in R.
np$take(x, 0L, 2L)
## [[ 1. 3. 5.]
## [ 7. 9. 11.]
## [ 13. 15. 17.]
## [ 19. 21. 23.]]
y[, , 1]
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 1 3 5
## [2,] 7 9 11
## [3,] 13 15 17
## [4,] 19 21 23
The NumPy take()
function is equivalent in this example to the Python notation x[:, :, 0]
; that is, entries with third dimension index = 0. (See https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.take.html.)
The corresponding R notation, y[, , 1]
, returns the same thing in this example: a 4x3 matrix.
Despite different internal memory ordering, and particularly despite awkward differences in printing arrays, the arrays are the same and are indexed the same way in each language respectively.
The previous examples focused on row-major arrays natively constructed in Python. Let’s see what happens when we start with column-major arrays from R and work with them in Python.
(y <- array(1:24, c(4, 3, 2))) # In R
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 1 5 9
## [2,] 2 6 10
## [3,] 3 7 11
## [4,] 4 8 12
##
## , , 2
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 13 17 21
## [2,] 14 18 22
## [3,] 15 19 23
## [4,] 16 20 24
(x <- np$array(y)) # and now in Python
## [[[ 1 13]
## [ 5 17]
## [ 9 21]]
##
## [[ 2 14]
## [ 6 18]
## [10 22]]
##
## [[ 3 15]
## [ 7 19]
## [11 23]]
##
## [[ 4 16]
## [ 8 20]
## [12 24]]]
Note that the Python version takes advantage of NumPy’s extraordinary flexibility and preserves R’s column-major ordering:
x$flags
## C_CONTIGUOUS : False
## F_CONTIGUOUS : True
## OWNDATA : True
## WRITEABLE : True
## ALIGNED : True
## UPDATEIFCOPY : False
You can probably tell already from the previous sections that these arrays are the same, and obey the same indexing conventions. The next example selects a subarray such that the third index of each array is 0 (Python) or 1 (R):
y[, , 1]
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 1 5 9
## [2,] 2 6 10
## [3,] 3 7 11
## [4,] 4 8 12
np$take(x, 0L, 2L)
## [[ 1 5 9]
## [ 2 6 10]
## [ 3 7 11]
## [ 4 8 12]]
It’s important to remember that the order is preserved from Python when copying an array result back into R:
py_to_r(np$take(x, 0L, 2L))
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 1 5 9
## [2,] 2 6 10
## [3,] 3 7 11
## [4,] 4 8 12
The upshot is that arrays created by either R or Python are indexed exactly the same in either language.
Right. That’s just a simple consequence of the default column-major and row-major formats used in R and NumPy respectively. You are always free to use R’s column-major format directly in Python, for example using the “F” flag below (for Fortran):
np$reshape(np$arange(1, 25), c(4L, 3L, 2L), "F")
## [[[ 1. 13.]
## [ 5. 17.]
## [ 9. 21.]]
##
## [[ 2. 14.]
## [ 6. 18.]
## [ 10. 22.]]
##
## [[ 3. 15.]
## [ 7. 19.]
## [ 11. 23.]]
##
## [[ 4. 16.]
## [ 8. 20.]
## [ 12. 24.]]]
Note that the result is just like the one we got starting from R above.
Re-arranging R arrays into row-major order requires more work. R is less flexible than Python and we can’t explicitly change R’s memory order representation. When the array is a matrix when we can simply use byrow=TRUE
. In the n-d array case, a portion of the problem can be reduced to using byrow=TRUE
followed by judicious index permutation with aperm()
. Here is one somewhat inefficient example:
y <- aperm(array(matrix(1:24, c(3 * 4, 2), byrow=TRUE),
c(3, 4, 2)), c(2, 1, 3))
See the last section below for a different example.

## [ 0. 0.]
## [ 0. 0.]]
##
## [[ 0. 0.]
## [ 0. 0.]
## [ 0. 0.]]
##
## [[ 0. 0.]
## [ 0. 0.]
## [ 0. 0.]]
##
## [[ 0. 0.]
## [ 0. 0.]
## [ 0. 0.]]]
The above NumPy arrays are the same, their element-wise difference is zero.
In R you would typically reshape an array using the dim<-()
function. For example:
dim(x) <- c(1000, 28, 28)
In R, this operation simply changes the “dim” attribute of the array, effectively re-interpreting the array indices as specified using column-major semantics.
However, the NumPy reshape
method uses row-major semantics by default, so if you are mixing R and Python code that reshapes arrays you will find that the reshaping will be inconsistent if you use the R dim<-()
function.
To overcome this inconsistency, there is an array_reshape()
function which will reshape an R array using row-major semantics (i.e. will fill the new dimensions in row-major rather than col-major order). The example above would be re-written as:
x <- array_reshape(x, c(1000, 28, 28))
Here’s a further example to illustrate the difference:
# let's construct a 2x2 array from a vector of 4 elements
x <- 1:4
# rearrange will fill the array row-wise
array_reshape(x, c(2, 2))
# [,1] [,2]
# [1,] 1 2
# [2,] 3 4
# setting the dimensions 'fills' the array col-wise
dim(x) <- c(2, 2)
x
# [,1] [,2]
# [1,] 1 3
# [2,] 2 4
It’s worth noting that analogs of R’s apply()
function in Python behave differently. The following excellent Mathesaurus reference http://mathesaurus.sourceforge.net/r-numpy.html applies well to matrices and vectors, but is misleading for n-d arrays with n > 2.
In particular, Mathesaurus says that if a is a matrix, then the sum of each column in Python may be computed by a.sum(0)
, and in R (among other possible ways) by apply(a, 2, sum)
. Although correct for matrices, this is in general not quite right. A more precise R analog of NumPy’s a.sum(0)
is apply(a, seq_along(dim(a))[-1], sum)
. In other words, a.sum(0)
means sum over the first dimension, returning an array of the same dimensions as a but with the first dimension removed.
It’s easy to be confused by this, so let’s see an example using a 4x3x2 array, first in Python:
library(reticulate)
np <- import("numpy", convert=FALSE)
x <- np$arange(1, 25)$reshape(c(4L, 3L, 2L))
x$sum(0) # N. B. a 3x2 matrix!
## [[ 40. 44.]
## [ 48. 52.]
## [ 56. 60.]]
# N. B. A tuple() object is required here (NumPy vectors won't work)
x$sum(tuple(1L, 2L))
## [ 21. 57. 93. 129.]
And now the corresponding sums in R:
y <- py_to_r(x)
apply(y, dim(y)[-1], sum)
## [,1] [,2] [,3]
## [1,] 40 48 56
## [2,] 44 52 60
apply(y, 1, sum)
## [1] 21 57 93 129
These notes were prepared in response to a tensorflow issue now in the reticulate package https://github.com/rstudio/reticulate/issues/9. The issue directly gets to a common source of confusion with n-d arrays in R and Python and how they are printed and stored. A lightly-edited reproduction of the reference Python code in the issue appears below.
library(tensorflow)
np <- import("numpy", convert=FALSE)
a <- np$arange(1, 9)$reshape(c(2L, 2L, 2L))
b <- np$arange(1, 5)$reshape(c(2L, 2L, 1L))
c <- tf$matmul(tf$constant(a), tf$constant(b))
tf$Session()$run(c)
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 5 11
## [2,] 39 53
The issue goes on to reproduce the example using R-generated arrays as follows:
A <- list(matrix(1:4, nrow=2, byrow=T), matrix(5:8, nrow=2, byrow=T))
A <- array(unlist(A), dim=c(2,2,2))
However, already at this point we see that the R-generated array A is not the same as the above array a by comparing a with np$array(A)
below.
However, we can see how it can be easy to make the mistake that they are the same simply because of the way the arrays are printed! The R array looks superficially the same as the printed Python array.
print(a)
## [[[ 1. 2.]
## [ 3. 4.]]
##
## [[ 5. 6.]
## [ 7. 8.]]]
print(np$array(A))
## [[[1 5]
## [2 6]]
##
## [[3 7]
## [4 8]]]
print(A)
## , , 1
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 1 2
## [2,] 3 4
##
## , , 2
## [,1] [,2]
## [1,] 5 6
## [2,] 7 8
Instead, we need to construct the R array A differently to match the row-major order of Python, discussed in the previous sections. We can use many approaches including:
(A <- np$array(aperm(array(1:8, c(2,2,2)), c(3,2,1))))
## [[[1 2]
## [3 4]]
##
## [[5 6]
## [7 8]]]
With similar care ordering the values in the b array we can finish replicating the example in R (with the same result as the reference Python example above).
A <- np$array(aperm(array(1:8, c(2,2,2)), c(3,2,1)))

Universal Studios delayed guest from entering park whose shirt said 'retired officer'
He says he'll never go back
by Associated PressORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A 55-year-old law enforcement veteran was stopped from entering Universal Studios for nearly an hour because the front of his grey long-sleeved t-shirt read “retired police officer.”
Former Ormond Beach officer Vincent Champion tells the Orlando Sentinel the experience left him confused and angry. He vows never to return to the theme park.
FLORIDA NEWS | The latest headlines from Florida
Universal officials said in a statement they have tremendous respect for law enforcement, but guests could have confused him for an actual police officer. Security attendants asked him to remove the shirt before entering the park Nov. 1.
Bystanders defended Champion. One offered his shirt. Champion put it on but was told he couldn’t carry the other shirt into the park.
Champion says a supervisor finally relented when he acknowledged there’s no official badge on the shirt.

Canelo Alvarez can make history - but expect Sergey Kovalev to push him to the wire
Canelo bids to win a world title in a fourth weight division when he takes on Kovalev in Las Vegas
by Barry McGuigan, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/barry-mcguigan/Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez has his eyes on history.
He not only wants to become a four division world champion, he is jumping two divisions to challenge for a light heavyweight title, which is pretty much unheard of among Mexican fighters.
Canelo is a Hall-of-Famer no doubt, and has identified a fading, 36-year-old Sergey Kovalev as the perfect foe, the right man in the right place at the right time.
Though Kovalev lost the WBO title twice, initially to Andre Ward in his first defeat as a pro, he regained in avenging his shock loss to Eleider Alvarez.
The defeat by Alvarez marked a low point and highlighted the dissolute lifestyle issues that had finally caught up with him.
Kovalev vs Ward I three years ago was close, he dropped Ward before losing by decision. In the rematch seven months later Kovalev appeared to capitulate too easily.
It was a mental disintegration as much as physical. It looked like he did not want to continue. Ward is a once in a lifetime talent so it does not mean Kovalev was not a great fighter.
After the Alvarez disaster in April last year Kovalev turned to Buddy McGirt, a no-nonsense character who appears to have turned things around.
After winning back the WBO belt in the rematch in February, Kovalev added big hitting Anthony Yarde to his list of victims in August.
That showed that he was at least half decent back in shape, and that the chin held up. Though he does not punch as hard as Yarde, Canelo is way more accomplished and will test Kovalev in every department.
My worry is Kovalev does not make the weight easily and does not take shots to the body as well as he did.
Kovalev is the bigger specimen but Canelo is the fresher. Kovalev’s Achilles heel is the body. Canelo’s strength is his body punching so you can see how this might play out.
However, if Alvarez can’t find him and has to walk in and take chances Kovalev is well in the match.
Canelo is a strong favourite here but don't be surprised if Kovalev has him over and takes it to the wire. So there is jeopardy in it for both.
Ultimately Kovalev is going up a level here in intensity, pressure and sense of occasion. And that’s a whole different ball game.

Since there was a change in the schedule and Jean Paeling couldn't come to Rome (great pity...), we don't have much to study yet. Moreover, the weather in Rome these days is gorgeous. All together, my flatmates and I felt like we had to go out for a tour around the
main Rome. Since the
main Rome means the
touristic Rome, we dressed up (honestly, a japanese with a digital camera, a french with a guide from Michelin in his hands and a spaniard taking pictures all around do look like tourists...) as for the occassion and headed downtown. Nice weather, nice ambiance and amazing ice-cream...
main Rome!


SCENE I. Athens. A hall in Timon's house.
Enter Poet, Painter, Jeweller, Merchant, and
others, at several doors
- Poet
- Good day, sir.
- Painter
- I am glad you're well.
- Poet
- I have not seen you long: how goes the world?
- Painter
- It wears, sir, as it grows.
- Poet
- Ay, that's well known:
- But what particular rarity? what strange,
- Which manifold record not matches? See,
- Magic of bounty! all these spirits thy power
- Hath conjured to attend. I know the merchant.
- Painter
- I know them both; th' other's a jeweller.
- Merchant
- O, 'tis a worthy lord.
- Jeweller
- Nay, that's most fix'd.
- Merchant
- A most incomparable man, breathed, as it were,
- To an untirable and continuate goodness:
- He passes.
- Jeweller:
- I have a jewel here —
- Merchant
- O, pray, let's see't: for the Lord Timon, sir?
- Jeweller:
- If he will touch the estimate: but, for that —
- Poet
- Reciting to himself 'When we for recompense have
- praised the vile,
- It stains the glory in that happy verse
- Which aptly sings the good.'
- Merchant
- 'Tis a good form.
Looking at the jewel
- Jeweller
- And rich: here is a water, look ye.
- Painter
- You are rapt, sir, in some work, some dedication
- To the great lord.
- Poet
- A thing slipp'd idly from me.
- Our poesy is as a gum, which oozes
- From whence 'tis nourish'd: the fire i' the flint
- Shows not till it be struck; our gentle flame
- Provokes itself and like the current flies
- Each bound it chafes. What have you there?
- Painter
- A picture, sir. When comes your book forth?
- Poet
- Upon the heels of my presentment, sir.
- Let's see your piece.
- Painter
- 'Tis a good piece.
- Poet
- So 'tis: this comes off well and excellent.
- Painter
- Indifferent.
- Poet
- Admirable: how this grace
- Speaks his own standing! what a mental power
- This eye shoots forth! how big imagination
- Moves in this lip! to the dumbness of the gesture
- One might interpret.
- Painter
- It is a pretty mocking of the life.
- Here is a touch; is't good?
- Poet
- I will say of it,
- It tutors nature: artificial strife
- Lives in these touches, livelier than life.
Enter certain Senators, and pass over
- Painter
- How this lord is follow'd!
- Poet
- The senators of Athens: happy man!
- Painter
- Look, more!
- Poet
- You see this confluence, this great flood
- of visitors.
- I have, in this rough work, shaped out a man,
- Whom this beneath world doth embrace and hug
- With amplest entertainment: my free drift
- Halts not particularly, but moves itself
- In a wide sea of wax: no levell'd malice
- Infects one comma in the course I hold;
- But flies an eagle flight, bold and forth on,
- Leaving no tract behind.
- Painter
- How shall I understand you?
- Poet
- I will unbolt to you.
- You see how all conditions, how all minds,
- As well of glib and slippery creatures as
- Of grave and austere quality, tender down
- Their services to Lord Timon: his large fortune
- Upon his good and gracious nature hanging
- Subdues and properties to his love and tendance
- All sorts of hearts; yea, from the glass-faced flatterer
- To Apemantus, that few things loves better
- Than to abhor himself: even he drops down
- The knee before him, and returns in peace
- Most rich in Timon's nod.
- Painter
- I saw them speak together.
- Poet
- Sir, I have upon a high and pleasant hill
- Feign'd Fortune to be throned: the base o' the mount
- Is rank'd with all deserts, all kind of natures,
- That labour on the bosom of this sphere
- To propagate their states: amongst them all,
- Whose eyes are on this sovereign lady fix'd,
- One do I personate of Lord Timon's frame,
- Whom Fortune with her ivory hand wafts to her;
- Whose present grace to present slaves and servants
- Translates his rivals.
- Painter
- 'Tis conceived to scope.
- This throne, this Fortune, and this hill, methinks,
- With one man beckon'd from the rest below,
- Bowing his head against the sleepy mount
- To climb his happiness, would be well express'd
- In our condition.
- Poet
- Nay, sir, but hear me on.
- All those which were his fellows but of late,
- Some better than his value, on the moment
- Follow his strides, his lobbies fill with tendance,
- Rain sacrificial whisperings in his ear,
- Make sacred even his stirrup, and through him
- Drink the free air.
- Painter
- Ay, marry, what of these?
- Poet
- When Fortune in her shift and change of mood
- Spurns down her late beloved, all his dependants
- Which labour'd after him to the mountain's top
- Even on their knees and hands, let him slip down,
- Not one accompanying his declining foot.
- Painter
- 'Tis common:
- A thousand moral paintings I can show
- That shall demonstrate these quick blows of Fortune's
- More pregnantly than words. Yet you do well
- To show Lord Timon that mean eyes have seen
- The foot above the head.
Trumpets sound. Enter TIMON, addressing himself
courteously to every suitor; a Messenger from
VENTIDIUS talking with him; LUCILIUS and other
servants following
- TIMON
- Imprison'd is he, say you?
- Messenger
- Ay, my good lord: five talents is his debt,
- His means most short, his creditors most strait:
- Your honourable letter he desires
- To those have shut him up; which failing,
- Periods his comfort.
- TIMON
- Noble Ventidius! Well;
- I am not of that feather to shake off
- My friend when he must need me. I do know him
- A gentleman that well deserves a help:
- Which he shall have: I'll pay the debt,
- and free him.
- Messenger
- Your lordship ever binds him.
- TIMON
- Commend me to him: I will send his ransom;
- And being enfranchised, bid him come to me.
- 'Tis not enough to help the feeble up,
- But to support him after. Fare you well.
- Messenger
- All happiness to your honour!
Exit
Enter an old Athenian
- Old Athenian
- Lord Timon, hear me speak.
- TIMON
- Freely, good father.
- Old Athenian
- Thou hast a servant named Lucilius.
- TIMON
- I have so: what of him?
- Old Athenian
- Most noble Timon, call the man before thee.
- TIMON
- Attends he here, or no? Lucilius!
- LUCILIUS
- Here, at your lordship's service.
- Old Athenian
- This fellow here, Lord Timon, this thy creature,
- By night frequents my house. I am a man
- That from my first have been inclined to thrift;
- And my estate deserves an heir more raised
- Than one which holds a trencher.
- TIMON
- Well; what further?
- Old Athenian
- One only daughter have I, no kin else,
- On whom I may confer what I have got:
- The maid is fair, o' the youngest for a bride,
- And I have bred her at my dearest cost
- In qualities of the best. This man of thine
- Attempts her love: I prithee, noble lord,
- Join with me to forbid him her resort;
- Myself have spoke in vain.
- TIMON
- The man is honest.
- Old Athenian
- Therefore he will be, Timon:
- His honesty rewards him in itself;
- It must not bear my daughter.
- TIMON
- Does she love him?
- Old Athenian
- She is young and apt:
- Our own precedent passions do instruct us
- What levity's in youth.
- TIMON
- To LUCILIUS Love you the maid?
- LUCILIUS
- Ay, my good lord, and she accepts of it.
- Old Athenian
- If in her marriage my consent be missing,
- I call the gods to witness, I will choose
- Mine heir from forth the beggars of the world,
- And dispossess her all.
- TIMON
- How shall she be endow'd,
- if she be mated with an equal husband?
- Old Athenian
- Three talents on the present; in future, all.
- TIMON
- This gentleman of mine hath served me long:
- To build his fortune I will strain a little,
- For 'tis a bond in men. Give him thy daughter:
- What you bestow, in him I'll counterpoise,
- And make him weigh with her.
- Old Athenian
- Most noble lord,
- Pawn me to this your honour, she is his.
- TIMON
- My hand to thee; mine honour on my promise.
- LUCILIUS
- Humbly I thank your lordship: never may
- The state or fortune fall into my keeping,
- Which is not owed to you!
Exeunt LUCILIUS and Old Athenian
- Poet
- Vouchsafe my labour, and long live your lordship!
- TIMON
- I thank you; you shall hear from me anon:
- Go not away. What have you there, my friend?
- Painter
- A piece of painting, which I do beseech
- Your lordship to accept.
- TIMON
- Painting is welcome.
- The painting is almost the natural man;
- or since dishonour traffics with man's nature,
- He is but outside: these pencill'd figures are
- Even such as they give out.
- Painter
- The gods preserve ye!
- TIMON
- Well fare you, gentleman: give me your hand;
- We must needs dine together. Sir, your jewel
- Hath suffer'd under praise.
- Jeweller
- What, my lord! dispraise?
- TIMON
- A more satiety of commendations.
- If I should pay you for't as 'tis extoll'd,
- It would unclew me quite.
- Jeweller
- My lord, 'tis rated
- As those which sell would give: but you well know,
- Things of like value differing in the owners
- Are prized by their masters: believe't, dear lord,
- You mend the jewel by the wearing it.
- TIMON
- Well mock'd.
- Merchant
- No, my good lord; he speaks the common tongue,
- Which all men speak with him.
- TIMON
- Look, who comes here: will you be chid?
Enter APEMANTUS
- Jeweller
- We'll bear, with your lordship.
- Merchant
- He'll spare none.
- TIMON
- Good morrow to thee, gentle Apemantus!
- APEMANTUS
- Till I be gentle, stay thou for thy good morrow;
- When thou art Timon's dog, and these knaves honest.
- TIMON
- Why dost thou call them knaves? thou know'st them not.
- APEMANTUS
- Are they not Athenians?
- TIMON
- Yes.
- APEMANTUS
- Then I repent not.
- Jeweller
- You know me, Apemantus?
- APEMANTUS
- Thou know'st I do: I call'd thee by thy name.
- TIMON
- Thou art proud, Apemantus.
- APEMANTUS
- Of nothing so much as that I am not like Timon.
- TIMON
- Whither art going?
- APEMANTUS
- To knock out an honest Athenian's brains.
- TIMON
- That's a deed thou'lt die for.
- APEMANTUS
- Right, if doing nothing be death by the law.
- TIMON
- How likest thou this picture, Apemantus?
- APEMANTUS
- The best, for the innocence.
- TIMON
- Wrought he not well that painted it?
- APEMANTUS
- He wrought better that made the painter; and yet
- he's but a filthy piece of work.

- APEMANTUS
- Thy mother's of my generation: what's she, if I be a dog?
- TIMON
- Wilt dine with me, Apemantus?
- APEMANTUS
- No; I eat not lords.
- TIMON
- An thou shouldst, thou 'ldst anger ladies.
- APEMANTUS
- O, they eat lords; so they come by great bellies.
- TIMON
- That's a lascivious apprehension.
- APEMANTUS
- So thou apprehendest it: take it for thy labour.
- TIMON
- How dost thou like this jewel, Apemantus?
- APEMANTUS
- Not so well as plain-dealing, which will not cost a
- man a doit.
- TIMON
- What dost thou think 'tis worth?
- APEMANTUS
- Not worth my thinking. How now, poet!
- Poet
- How now, philosopher!
- APEMANTUS
- Thou liest.
- Poet
- Art not one?
- APEMANTUS
- Yes.
- Poet
- Then I lie not.
- APEMANTUS
- Art not a poet?
- Poet
- Yes.
- APEMANTUS
- Then thou liest: look in thy last work, where thou
- hast feigned him a worthy fellow.
- Poet
- That's not feigned; he is so.
- APEMANTUS
- Yes, he is worthy of thee, and to pay thee for thy
- labour: he that loves to be flattered is worthy o'
- the flatterer. Heavens, that I were a lord!
- TIMON
- What wouldst do then, Apemantus?
- APEMANTUS
- E'en as Apemantus does now; hate a lord with my heart.
- TIMON
- What, thyself?
- APEMANTUS
- Ay.
- TIMON
- Wherefore?
- APEMANTUS
- That I had no angry wit to be a lord.
- Art not thou a merchant?
- Merchant
- Ay, Apemantus.
- APEMANTUS
- Traffic confound thee, if the gods will not!
- Merchant
- If traffic do it, the gods do it.
- APEMANTUS
- Traffic's thy god; and thy god confound thee!
Trumpet sounds. Enter a Messenger
- TIMON
- What trumpet's that?
- Messenger
- 'Tis Alcibiades, and some twenty horse,
- All of companionship.
- TIMON
- Pray, entertain them; give them guide to us.
- Exeunt some Attendants
- You must needs dine with me: go not you hence
- Till I have thank'd you: when dinner's done,
- Show me this piece. I am joyful of your sights.
- Enter ALCIBIADES, with the rest
- Most welcome, sir!
- APEMANTUS
- So, so, there!
- Aches contract and starve your supple joints!
- That there should be small love 'mongst these
- sweet knaves,
- And all this courtesy! The strain of man's bred out
- Into baboon and monkey.
- ALCIBIADES
- Sir, you have saved my longing, and I feed
- Most hungerly on your sight.
- TIMON
- Right welcome, sir!
- Ere we depart, we'll share a bounteous time
- In different pleasures. Pray you, let us in.
Exeunt all except APEMANTUS
Enter two Lords
- First Lord
- What time o' day is't, Apemantus?
- APEMANTUS
- Time to be honest.
- First Lord
- That time serves still.
- APEMANTUS
- The more accursed thou, that still omitt'st it.
- Second Lord
- Thou art going to Lord Timon's feast?
- APEMANTUS
- Ay, to see meat fill knaves and wine heat fools.
- Second Lord
- Fare thee well, fare thee well.
- APEMANTUS
- Thou art a fool to bid me farewell twice.
- Second Lord
- Why, Apemantus?
- APEMANTUS
- Shouldst have kept one to thyself, for I mean to
- give thee none.
- First Lord
- Hang thyself!
- APEMANTUS
- No, I will do nothing at thy bidding: make thy
- requests to thy friend.
- Second Lord
- Away, unpeaceable dog, or I'll spurn thee hence!

Exit
- First Lord
- He's opposite to humanity. Come, shall we in,
- And taste Lord Timon's bounty? he outgoes
- The very heart of kindness.
- Second Lord
- He pours it out; Plutus, the god of gold,
- Is but his steward: no meed, but he repays
- Sevenfold above itself; no gift to him,
- But breeds the giver a return exceeding
- All use of quittance.
- First Lord
- The noblest mind he carries
- That ever govern'd man.
- Second Lord
- Long may he live in fortunes! Shall we in?
- First Lord
- I'll keep you company.
Exeunt
SCENE II. A banqueting-room in Timon's house.
Hautboys playing loud music. A great banquet
served in; FLAVIUS and others attending; then enter
TIMON, ALCIBIADES, Lords, Senators, and VENTIDIUS.
Then comes, dropping, after all, APEMANTUS,
discontentedly, like himself
- VENTIDIUS
- Most honour'd Timon,
- It hath pleased the gods to remember my father's age,
- And call him to long peace.
- He is gone happy, and has left me rich:
- Then, as in grateful virtue I am bound
- To your free heart, I do return those talents,
- Doubled with thanks and service, from whose help
- I derived liberty.
- TIMON
- O, by no means,
- Honest Ventidius; you mistake my love:
- I gave it freely ever; and there's none
- Can truly say he gives, if he receives:
- If our betters play at that game, we must not dare
- To imitate them; faults that are rich are fair.
- VENTIDIUS
- A noble spirit!
- TIMON
- Nay, my lords,
- They all stand ceremoniously looking on TIMON
- Ceremony was but devised at first
- To set a gloss on faint deeds, hollow welcomes,
- Recanting goodness, sorry ere 'tis shown;
- But where there is true friendship, there needs none.
- Pray, sit; more welcome are ye to my fortunes
- Than my fortunes to me.
They sit
- First Lord
- My lord, we always have confess'd it.
- APEMANTUS
- Ho, ho, confess'd it! hang'd it, have you not?
- TIMON
- O, Apemantus, you are welcome.
- APEMANTUS
- No;
- You shall not make me welcome:
- I come to have thee thrust me out of doors.
- TIMON
- Fie, thou'rt a churl; ye've got a humour there
- Does not become a man: 'tis much to blame.
- They say, my lords, 'ira furor brevis est;' but yond
- man is ever angry. Go, let him have a table by
- himself, for he does neither affect company, nor is
- he fit for't, indeed.
- APEMANTUS
- Let me stay at thine apperil, Timon: I come to
- observe; I give thee warning on't.
- TIMON
- I take no heed of thee; thou'rt an Athenian,
- therefore welcome: I myself would have no power;
- prithee, let my meat make thee silent.
- APEMANTUS
- I scorn thy meat; 'twould choke me, for I should
- ne'er flatter thee.  It grieves me
- to see so many dip their meat in one man's blood;
- and all the madness is, he cheers them up too.
- I wonder men dare trust themselves with men:
- Methinks they should invite them without knives;
- Good for their meat, and safer for their lives.
- There's much example for't; the fellow that sits
- next him now, parts bread with him, pledges the
- breath of him in a divided draught, is the readiest
- man to kill him: 't has been proved. If I were a
- huge man, I should fear to drink at meals;
- Lest they should spy my windpipe's dangerous notes:
- Great men should drink with harness on their throats.
- TIMON
- My lord, in heart; and let the health go round.
- Second Lord
- Let it flow this way, my good lord.
- APEMANTUS
- Flow this way! A brave fellow! he keeps his tides
- well. Those healths will make thee and thy state
- look ill, Timon. Here's that which is too weak to
- be a sinner, honest water, which ne'er left man i' the mire:
- This and my food are equals; there's no odds:
- Feasts are too proud to give thanks to the gods.
- Apemantus' grace.
- Immortal gods, I crave no pelf;
- I pray for no man but myself:
- Grant I may never prove so fond,
- To trust man on his oath or bond;
- Or a harlot, for her weeping;
- Or a dog, that seems a-sleeping:
- Or a keeper with my freedom;
- Or my friends, if I should need 'em.
- Amen. So fall to't:
- Rich men sin, and I eat root.
- Eats and drinks
- Much good dich thy good heart, Apemantus!
- TIMON
- Captain Alcibiades, your heart's in the field now.
- ALCIBIADES
- My heart is ever at your service, my lord.
- TIMON
- You had rather be at a breakfast of enemies than a
- dinner of friends.
- ALCIBIADES
- So the were bleeding-new, my lord, there's no meat
- like 'em: I could wish my best friend at such a feast.
- APEMANTUS
- Would all those fatterers were thine enemies then,
- that then thou mightst kill 'em and bid me to 'em!
- First Lord
- Might we but have that happiness, my lord, that you
- would once use our hearts, whereby we might express
- some part of our zeals, we should think ourselves
- for ever perfect.
- TIMON
- O, no doubt, my good friends, but the gods
- themselves have provided that I shall have much help
- from you: how had you been my friends else? why
- have you that charitable title from thousands, did
- not you chiefly belong to my heart? I have told
- more of you to myself than you can with modesty
- speak in your own behalf; and thus far I confirm
- you. O you gods, think I, what need we have any
- friends, if we should ne'er have need of 'em? they
- were the most needless creatures living, should we
- ne'er have use for 'em, and would most resemble
- sweet instruments hung up in cases that keep their
- sounds to themselves. Why, I have often wished
- myself poorer, that I might come nearer to you. We
- are born to do benefits: and what better or
- properer can we can our own than the riches of our
- friends? O, what a precious comfort 'tis, to have
- so many, like brothers, commanding one another's
- fortunes! O joy, e'en made away ere 't can be born!
- Mine eyes cannot hold out water, methinks: to
- forget their faults, I drink to you.
- APEMANTUS
- Thou weepest to make them drink, Timon.

- APEMANTUS
- Ho, ho!
- Third Lord
- I promise you, my lord, you moved me much.
- APEMANTUS
- Much!
Tucket, within
- TIMON
- What means that trump?
- Enter a Servant
- How now?
- Servant
- Please you, my lord, there are certain
- ladies most desirous of admittance.
- TIMON
- Ladies! what are their wills?
- Servant
- There comes with them a forerunner, my lord, which
- bears that office, to signify their pleasures.
- TIMON
- I pray, let them be admitted.
Enter Cupid
- Cupid
- Hail to thee, worthy Timon, and to all
- That of his bounties taste! The five best senses
- Acknowledge thee their patron; and come freely
- To gratulate thy plenteous bosom: th' ear,
- Taste, touch and smell, pleased from thy tale rise;
- They only now come but to feast thine eyes.
- TIMON
- They're welcome all; let 'em have kind admittance:
- Music, make their welcome!
Exit Cupid
- First Lord
- You see, my lord, how ample you're beloved.
Music. Re-enter Cupid with a mask of Ladies
as Amazons, with lutes in their hands,
dancing and playing
- APEMANTUS
- Hoy-day, what a sweep of vanity comes this way!
- They dance! they are mad women.
- Like madness is the glory of this life.
- As this pomp shows to a little oil and root.
- We make ourselves fools, to disport ourselves;
- And spend our flatteries, to drink those men
- Upon whose age we void it up again,
- With poisonous spite and envy.
- Who lives that's not depraved or depraves?
- Who dies, that bears not one spurn to their graves
- Of their friends' gift?
- I should fear those that dance before me now
- Would one day stamp upon me: 't has been done;
- Men shut their doors against a setting sun.
The Lords rise from table, with much adoring of
TIMON; and to show their loves, each singles out an
Amazon, and all dance, men with women, a lofty
strain or two to the hautboys, and cease
- TIMON
- You have done our pleasures much grace, fair ladies,
- Set a fair fashion on our entertainment,
- Which was not half so beautiful and kind;
- You have added worth unto 't and lustre,
- And entertain'd me with mine own device;
- I am to thank you for 't.
- First Lady
- My lord, you take us even at the best.
- APEMANTUS
- 'Faith, for the worst is filthy; and would not hold
- taking, I doubt me.
- TIMON
- Ladies, there is an idle banquet attends you:
- Please you to dispose yourselves.
- All Ladies
- Most thankfully, my lord.
Exeunt Cupid and Ladies
- TIMON
- Flavius.
- FLAVIUS
- My lord?
- TIMON
- The little casket bring me hither.
- FLAVIUS
- Yes, my lord. More jewels yet!
- There is no crossing him in 's humour;
- Aside
- Else I should tell him — well, i' faith I should,
- When all's spent, he 'ld be cross'd then, an he could.
- 'Tis pity bounty had not eyes behind,
- That man might ne'er be wretched for his mind.
Exit
- First Lord
- Where be our men?
- Servant
- Here, my lord, in readiness.
- Second Lord
- Our horses!
Re-enter FLAVIUS, with the casket
- TIMON
- O my friends,
- I have one word to say to you: look you, my good lord,
- I must entreat you, honour me so much
- As to advance this jewel; accept it and wear it,
- Kind my lord.
- First Lord
- I am so far already in your gifts —
- All
- So are we all.
Enter a Servant
- Servant
- My lord, there are certain nobles of the senate
- Newly alighted, and come to visit you.
- TIMON
- They are fairly welcome.
- FLAVIUS
- I beseech your honour,
- Vouchsafe me a word; it does concern you near.
- TIMON
- Near! why then, another time I'll hear thee:
- I prithee, let's be provided to show them
- entertainment.
- FLAVIUS
- Aside I scarce know how.
Enter a Second Servant
- Second Servant
- May it please your honour, Lord Lucius,
- Out of his free love, hath presented to you
- Four milk-white horses, trapp'd in silver.
- TIMON
- I shall accept them fairly; let the presents
- Be worthily entertain'd.
- Enter a third Servant
- How now! what news?
- Third Servant
- Please you, my lord, that honourable
- gentleman, Lord Lucullus, entreats your company
- to-morrow to hunt with him, and has sent your honour
- two brace of greyhounds.
- TIMON
- I'll hunt with him; and let them be received,
- Not without fair reward.
- FLAVIUS
- Aside What will this come to?
- He commands us to provide, and give great gifts,
- And all out of an empty coffer:
- Nor will he know his purse, or yield me this,
- To show him what a beggar his heart is,
- Being of no power to make his wishes good:
- His promises fly so beyond his state
- That what he speaks is all in debt; he owes
- For every word: he is so kind that he now
- Pays interest for 't; his land's put to their books.
- Well, would I were gently put out of office
- Before I were forced out!
- Happier is he that has no friend to feed
- Than such that do e'en enemies exceed.
- I bleed inwardly for my lord.
Exit
- TIMON
- You do yourselves
- Much wrong, you bate too much of your own merits:
- Here, my lord, a trifle of our love.
- Second Lord
- With more than common thanks I will receive it.
- Third Lord
- O, he's the very soul of bounty!
- TIMON
- And now I remember, my lord, you gave
- Good words the other day of a bay courser
- I rode on: it is yours, because you liked it.
- Second Lord
- O, I beseech you, pardon me, my lord, in that.
- TIMON
- You may take my word, my lord; I know, no man
- Can justly praise but what he does affect:
- I weigh my friend's affection with mine own;
- I'll tell you true. I'll call to you.
- All Lords
- O, none so welcome.
- TIMON
- I take all and your several visitations
- So kind to heart, 'tis not enough to give;
- Methinks, I could deal kingdoms to my friends,
- And ne'er be weary. Alcibiades,
- Thou art a soldier, therefore seldom rich;
- It comes in charity to thee: for all thy living
- Is 'mongst the dead, and all the lands thou hast
- Lie in a pitch'd field.
- ALCIBIADES
- Ay, defiled land, my lord.
- First Lord
- We are so virtuously bound —
- TIMON
- And so
- Am I to you.
- Second Lord
- So infinitely endear'd —
- TIMON
- All to you. Lights, more lights!
- First Lord
- The best of happiness,
- Honour and fortunes, keep with you, Lord Timon!
- TIMON
- Ready for his friends.
Exeunt all but APEMANTUS and TIMON
- APEMANTUS
- What a coil's here!
- Serving of becks and jutting-out of bums!
- I doubt whether their legs be worth the sums
- That are given for 'em.
- TIMON
- Now, Apemantus, if thou wert not sullen, I would be
- good to thee.
- APEMANTUS
- No, I'll nothing: for if I should be bribed too,
- there would be none left to rail upon thee, and then
- thou wouldst sin the faster. Thou givest so long,
- Timon, I fear me thou wilt give away thyself in
- paper shortly: what need these feasts, pomps and
- vain-glories?
- TIMON
- Nay, an you begin to rail on society once, I am
- sworn not to give regard to you. Farewell; and come
- with better music.
Exit
- APEMANTUS
- So:
- Thou wilt not hear me now; thou shalt not then:
- I'll lock thy heaven from thee.
- O, that men's ears should be
- To counsel deaf, but not to flattery!
Exit

Mon Jun 27, 2016
Unlike Google and the other guys, there was no talk of AI or bots at Apple’s software showcase this year. Instead, Apple was true to form, highlighting aspects like “differential privacy” and “continuity” - features that keep you locked into their ecosystem.
Overall, the event was fairly low key with Apple focused on improving and polishing rather than innovating (I think it was the announcement of universal cut and paste that got the biggest round of applause).
Still, I always enjoy sitting down to watch the two-hour infomercial that is the keynote - if only to see what free stuff I’m going to get. Remember when Apple actually charged for software upgrades? It’s way more fun to watch these things after you’ve sold your kidney for Apple hardware. There is no angst at WWDC - only benefits for those who have already paid the Apple tax.
Since the keynote was divided into four software platforms, I’ll do the same and comment on each one individually.
watchOS 3
I’m not sold on the Apple watch hardware just yet. I still think round smartwatches look far more classic than rectangular ones. Sure, you can read more text on a rectangular display, but I think Jony Ive should have focussed on form, and not function in this case.
After all, Apple is positioning this thing as a fashion accessory - not a Casio calculator watch reboot. Never mind that Tim Cook sees the Apple watch as more of a fitness wearable… Forget trying to please everyone - time to focus guys!
On the software side though, I am happy that they gutted the software and started over on the user interface. I’m happy because it means Apple is still committed to developing this product, and future iterations should be way more enticing than the clunky gadget this watch is now.
tvOS 10
I still have the Apple TV 3, so am not going to get these updates either. But I really don’t need Siri or apps on my Apple TV when I only use it for Netflix and Youtube. Also, the remote app on the iPhone is actually way more useful than the Apple TV 4 physical remote anyway.
I think the Apple TV has more potential for disruption in the US, but the CRTC in Canada is never going to let the Apple TV take down the cable companies.
I am far more interested in the rumours of an Alexa-like Siri box, possibly bundled into the next-gen Apple TV. We’ll see if those rumours pan out later this year.
macOS Sierra
My aging mid-2010 iMac just made the eligibility cutoff this year - iMacs that came out before 2009 are out of luck. I wish I could say that my iMac is aging gracefully, but the HDD hard drive is slowing down and crippling performance to the point of frustration. SSD hard drives were an emerging and expensive technology six years ago, but now it’s a no-brainer to go with solid state.
Anyway, Siri is coming to the Mac, which is good news… I guess? I’ll be able to ask Siri how much hard drive space I have left on my horribly slow hard drive.
I thought it was cool that the desktop and documents folders will be backed up to iCloud… but then again, you only get 5GB of free space, and Apple is pushing hard to put everything in iCloud so you have to buy more storage.
Now that I think of it, there isn’t a whole lot in macOS (formerly OS X) that is worth getting excited about, but hey, it’s free! And - that name change!
iOS 10
Since the iPhone is my newest Apple product, I was most interested in what’s new on the mobile front. Oh, and my iPad! I almost forgot you iPad, along with everybody else (drum roll please).
But seriously, even the minor update we got a few months ago with “Night Shift” was legitimately useful. Night Shift, in case you’re not aware, shifts the colour hue from blue to yellow at sunset everyday. I am now quite used to being bathed in a warm yellow glow every night. I wish my Kindle Paperwhite had this feature - the jarring switch to the bright blue Kindle screen after using my iPad at night feels like being blinded with a couple of photon torpedoes.
Anyway, “APIs for third parties” (or, “it’s an API party!”) was the defining theme of the upcoming improvements - a continuation of Apple’s ongoing efforts to be more open and developer friendly. The idea is that software hooks in Siri, Maps, and iMessage will allow a more seamless user experience. The example Craig Federighi demoed on stage was going to Maps and seeing restaurant reviews, booking a table, calling an Uber to get there, and paying for everything - all without ever leaving Maps.
My feelings on this sort of integration hasn’t changed much - the convenience in this scenario is great if you’re a single Silicon-Valley bro with money to burn. But if you’re a family man who needs to shop around for the best price, and needs to install car seats for the kids, and… well, let’s just say I can think of many ways to kibosh the above scenario.
The parts of iOS 10 that I like the best are the user interface improvements. The lock screen, control centre, notifications screen, and “Siri suggestions” screen (all in heavy day-to-day use) have all been revamped. Rich notifications and widgets on the lock screen with 3D-Touch support are especially great. Design-wise, they look a lot like the “Google Now cards”, which I’ve always thought were fantastic, and I can’t blame Apple for copying them.
Lots of people have said this, and I agree - at this point it doesn’t matter who is copying who. Android and iOS are borrowing the best from each other and are both converging into a user-focused paradigm. The result is a win for everybody.
Closing thoughts
I enjoyed watching the keynote, in the same way I enjoy listening to an old record. The familiarity and rhythm of it is pleasing in a way. But I’m not too happy about Apple trying to supplement flagging iPhone sales (in terms of growth, not revenue) by pushing paid services on us. It feels a bit disingenuous to claim you want a magical user experience on one hand, then push iCloud upgrades and accessories on the other (ooh look - you can unlock your iMac with your Apple watch - well why not with your iPhone?).
September is going to be interesting because it looks like Apple is going to ditch the tick-tock iPhone overhaul pattern. Rumours are pointing to a modest upgrade this year, with a radical design change slated for 2017 - the 10th anniversary of the iPhone.
Are savvy Apple fans going to forgo the upgrade this year and cost Apple billions of dollars in lost revenue? Stranger things have happened, I suppose. But there was nothing strange about WWDC 2016 (well, there was that rap-along) - on the software front, it’s business as usual, and that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

We re-created the following section from the turing website.
Image from turing.io
The <div> HTML container element is used to group other HTML elements together.
To open the inspector, right-click on the website and select "inspect".
Part of building a website includes ensuring everyone can access the website. For this, we'll need to use a company that offers web hosting.
A service that stores all the necessary files to render your website. This includes the HTML and CSS files.
For our final project, we'll use the web hosting service Neocities.
Why neocities?
Visit neocities.org to create an account.
Neocities offers an HTML tutorial
Clear out the existing HTML but keep the HTML structure.
<!DOCTYPE html>

Focusing on the top portion of our website, we have a vertical split. Ignoring the content for now, let's focus on building this layout.
<body>
</body>
.split-layout-container {
height: 100vh;
background-color: purple;
}
The "vh" unit stands for "viewport height". The viewport height is the height of the browser's window, which across laptops, tables, and phones.
So far, we've discussed two ways elements take up space on a page: block layout and inline layout. For advanced positioning, we're going to use a third layout option called: Flexbox.
A flexbox layout consists of a flex container that holds flex items. These flex items can "flex" their sizes, growing to fill unused space in the container, or shrinking to avoid overflowing.
<body>
</body>
.split-layout-container {
display: flex;
height: 100vh;
background-color: purple;
}
.split-layout-media {
background-color: lightblue;
width: 50%;
}
.split-layout-container {
background-color: pink;
width: 50%;
}
A large number of sites use "lists" to create their navigation or footer as these section are a collection of links.
Wrap each list item in a link (aka, anchor tag):
Remove the bullet point icon
Remove the blue color and underline
Style each list item to be on the same line
Nav is on the right-hand side of the page
.navigation-list {
list-style-type: none;
}
.navigation a {
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
Place each list item to on the same line
Nav is on the right-hand side of the page
.navigation-list {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row-reverse;
list-style-type: none;
}
Create space between each list item
Create space around the navigation links
.navigation {
background-color: yellow;
padding-top: 40px;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
Side-note, the background color is temporary and will help us see the padding that surrounds the nav element
Below the nav, let's add a container (div). Within that div, add the intro text.
Pineapple
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...
Visit lipsum.com to generate dummy text, also known as Lorem Ipsum.
Centering an element, vertically, can be tricky business. However, we can use flexbox to make it easy. Revisit the "split-layout-content" CSS class and set the layout to use "flex".
.split-layout-content {
background-color: pink;
width: 50%;
display: flex;
}
The flex layout defaults to placing elements in a row. In our case, we want a column layout.
.split-layout-content {
background-color: pink;
width: 50%;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
}
Not much has changed but changing the layout of the parent container will help the "intro" container position itself vertically. Let's vertically center the intro container.
.intro {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100%;
justify-content: center;
}
Add space around the text
Limit how much space the text can occupy
.intro {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100%;
justify-content: center;
max-width: 500px;
padding: 0 50px;
}
Add space between each line of text
.intro {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100%;
justify-content: center;
max-width: 500px;
padding: 0 50px;
line-height: 1.5;
}
Remove the pink and yellow background colors
Set the green background color
Below is the updated CSS with the green color:
.split-layout-content {
background-color: #828170;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
width: 50%;
}
.navigation {
padding-top: 40px;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
Update the navigation links and the intro text to use the color white. Below is the updated CSS:
.navigation a {
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}
.intro {
color: white;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: 100%;
justify-content: center;
line-height: 1.5;
max-width: 500px;
padding: 0 50px;
}
Remove the white border around the page
body {
margin: 0;
}
Set the font family
Set the font size
body {
font-family: Georgia, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 18px;
margin: 0;
}
Visit Unsplash for high-quality, free images.
A tall image will work best.
Once you found an image you like:
Update the existing HTML for "split-layout-media" and add a nested image tag to reference the recently uploaded image.
Position the image:
.split-layout-media img {
height: 100vh;
object-fit: cover;
width: 100%;
}

How Did This Gold Ship End Up Buried in the Woods?
This man bought some land hoping to find some gold, but what he found was a lot larger. A turn of the century gold mining ship was buried in the mud, far away from the nearest water.
