Why the lower bound for 3-query LCC’s doesn’t extend to LDC’s.
We aren’t using anything about the form of \(\phi\) other than small dual Gowers uniformity…
An interpretation of the AP differences \(y\): it fails to be an LDC if you can’t arbitrarily specify the (relative) density of AP’s in those directions.
A MVC is linear on \(\F_p\), not \(\Z/m\). The coefficients and evaluations are in \(\F_p\) even though the vectors aren’t. (Could we do better with codes on \(\Z/m\)?) A linear code on \(\F_p\) can be converted to a code on \(\F_2\) but it loses linearity.
However, a MVC is NOT captured by the “query at an AP formalism.” Although the codeword index space is \(\F_p^N\), we’re not using that group structure for querying. Rather, we’re using the group structure of \(\F_p^{\times N}\). So it could still be possible to prove a lower bound querying AP’s.
That is false, it IS captured. The group can be different! There is a group, and there is a field. Two different things!
Q4.14 in “APs and LDCs”: When \(N\) grows large, there doesn’t even exist a degree 1 polynomial for which this holds. This doesn’t seem promising; the only interesting case is for \(n\) constant or small.
Variations on the poly method:
How to use it for small finite fields? (In Kakeya, \(p\to \iy\).)
How about considering polynomials with multiple outputs, ex. \(\F_p^n\to \F_p^{n-2}\) to capture vanishing on a plane?
To study: Guth’s course. Does the idea for the plane/regulus theorem help in thinking about \(\de\)-SG configurations and LDC’s?

Match Play. Red trails 0-2 to 7. How should Red play 42?

(CorrectAnswer= 0/0, ErrorScore= 0)
Red must take his chances and go now because o the tactical opportunity afforded to him by the blot on White’s 2-pt. When ahead in the race, race.
Put that blot back on White’s 8-pt and running would be a huge mistake. However, Red must leverage the strength of his home board. Unless White can hit and cover the blot on the 2-pt he won’t be hitting because he still has a broken five point prime against Red’s rear checker.
After 20/16 with the 2 can be played 11/9, 9/7 or 6/4. Any move that doesn’t include 20/16 is a blunder.

Erin Brockovich * * (out of * * * * )
Directed by Steven Soderbergh. Cast: Julia Roberts, Albert Finney, Aaron Eckhart, Marg Helgenberger, Cherry Jones, Peter Coyote, Veanne Cox, Conchata Ferrell. 2000 - 131 minutes Rated R (for profanity). Reviewed by Dustin Putman, March 18, 2000.
"Erin Brockovich," whose nonfictional roots are made markedly clear even before the first frame of film, is the sort of vibrantly acted, feel-good legal drama that will inevitably leave many viewers enthusiastically raving about its qualities while exiting the movie theater. After all, the film didn't score a 98 out of 100 on Cinemascore, an almost unheard-of average grade from the general public whose seen it, for nothing. Superior to the usual movie whose newspaper and television blurbs read such things as, "It will make you stand up and cheer!," and absent of the majority of possible corniness, and tiresome courtroom scenes, that may very well have seeped into the proceedings with a lesser director at the helm, "Erin Brockovich," nonetheless, has its own problems.
Directed by Steven Soderbergh, a largely independent filmmaker (1989's stirring "sex, lies, and videotape") whose last studio picture was the undernourished, overrated 1998 George Clooney-Jennifer Lopez starrer, "Out of Sight," his latest excursion into the world of feature films has acquired the same sparkling performances that "Out of Sight" possessed, but remains just as unsatisfying in the long run. With a plot hook that was almost identically seen in 1998's "A Civil Action," yet focuses more on the central character than the former did on John Travolta, "Erin Brockovich," for all of its attributes, lacks urgency. As the developments in the case (a toxic level of chromium is found within the water supply in the small desert town of Hinkley, Calif., causing the residents to grow seriously ill) play out in the nearly two-and-a-quarter-hour running time, there is a complete insufficiency of suspense or rooting interest because it is clear, every step of the way, how the plot is going to evolve.
Julia Roberts, Hollywood's most popular leading lady, is unlike many of today's top stars because she actually has proven time and time again that she is a remarkably good actress. Unfairly labeled a performer who only makes romantic comedies, Roberts has made so many pictures in that genre because she is simply a charmer, and has the ability to win any viewer over, no matter what. That is not all she is about, however, as proven with "Erin Brockovich," which hands her one of the most memorable roles of her career, and she runs with it. As the self-titled character, a dirt-poor, twice-divorced mother of three who cares deeply for her children and desperately needs a job to get some cash, Roberts invigorates added life into a character that has been so freshly written to begin with.
After an automobile accident that leaves her with a case of whiplash and a court loss when her attorney, Ed Masry (Albert Finney), fails to convince the jury that it was the fault of the other driver, a doctor, Erin, who brashly, yet honestly, has a way of telling people like it is, walks right into the law firm of Masry and Vitito one day and demands that Ed give her a job. "I'm smart, I'm hard-working, I will work without benefits. Please don't make me beg," Erin heartfeltly tells him. While filing the real estate paperwork for the purchase of homes in Hinkley by PG&E (Pacific Gas and Electric), Erin stumbles upon the distressingly bleak medical files of the Hinkley residents peculiarly placed with the real estate information. After Ed allows her to research the files more, and following her initial meetings with several of the townspeople, Erin grows deeply involved in their story, firmly believing that they have a case after discovering the chromium within the water.
"Erin Brockovich" may be "based on a true story," but it is the sort of film that, if fictional, would be no less predictable. Following an intriguing opening half-hour as we meet and get to sympathize with Erin, who may dress in revealing clothing and not have a college degree, but who undeniably has an intelligent brain in her head and a caring heart in her chest, the film is bogged down in a narrative that is about as fresh as a loaf of one-month-old bread. Without a quick pace, something that almost any cliched movie needs in order to be successful, the film too often just lies there, immobile. Even the music score, by Thomas Newman, is basically a carbon copy of the one he composed for the infinitely better "American Beauty."
Thank goodness, then, for Roberts and the other top-flight actors, as well as some of the snappy dialogue within Susannah Grant's otherwise unworthy screenplay. Roberts, a naturally likable screen presence, single-handedly steals the film, but is ably supported by Albert Finney, who, with his own aptitude for humor and realism, makes a surprisingly great partner for Robert. Aaron Eckhart, playing a kind Harley Davidson-loving biker who falls for Erin and agrees to watch her kids while at work, tries his mightiest, but is so underwritten, and the subplot so shoddily penned, that the film might have benefitted from it being either edited out or rewritten. Finally, Marg Helgenberger, as the understanding housewife in Hinkley whom Erin first meets, is first-rate, and her character warmly and powerfully handled in only a few key scenes.
While it may be a wise career move for director Soderbergh to alternate between more risky, independent-minded projects and big-budget pictures, with "Erin Brockovich," he has made something so conventional and cinematically bland that it seems like the perfect example of the type of film Soderbergh has so valiantly fought against in the last decade of being a filmmaker.

Gospel artistes for live DVD recording
Mthabisi Tshuma, Showbiz Correspondent
Mai Mwamuka, Knowledge Nkiwane and Charles Mguni are some of the gospel artistes who will be featuring on former Vocal Ex lead singer, Siza Mdlongwa’s live DVD recording.
Joining them at the recording that will take place at Family of God (FOG) Auditorium in Bulawayo next Saturday will be Gwanda’s Destiny Life Ministries Church choir and Vocal Ex.
This will be Mdlongwa’s first recording after he went solo last year and successfully released his six-track gospel EP titled Isabelo Sami.
At the live recording, 15 songs will be recorded. Thereafter, they will be launched in January next year.
An elated Mdlongwa said he was ready for the litmus test he is facing on his individual brilliance.
“It’s definitely going to be a wonderful experience and now that I’ve gone solo as an artiste, I’ll work hard to give the best impression. The recording is something people should look out for as it’s going to be memorable,” said Mdlongwa.
Destiny Life Ministries’ choir said they were ready to entertain gospel lovers on the day.
“We’re so excited to be given this opportunity to worship God on a big platform and raise Gwanda’s flag high,” said choir leader, Prophet Tatenda Makasi. – @mthabisi_mthire

Long before the violoncello, there was the violin. It emerged as an instrument suited for dance music with its explosive articulations and vibrant sound. As time went on, the violin gave birth to the viola which in turn gave birth to the bigger viola. The new family of instruments began to be played in bands or consorts which became a popular platform for music making in many parts of 16th and 17th century Europe. Innovators explored the possibility of a still lower instrument of the violin family and created what was called the “violone” or bass violin. Able to play a full octave or more below the viola, the possibilities of violin band music and beyond were greatly increased.
The instrument was played in many stringings (between 4 and 6 strings), tunings, and bowings. It was played on the floor, between the legs, on a stool, or tied with a rope around the player’s neck. At the 18th century rise in popularity of the new small violone, in Italian literally “violoncello,” many of the old basses were cut down in size to keep with the fashion. The bass violin I play is modeled after one such instrument. The King, made by the master Italian craftsman Andrea Amati, was created in the middle of the 16th century. It was part of a collection of instruments for the court of King Charles the IX of France. Ornate paintings of the words “Justice” and “Piety” on the sides and a female depicting justice on the back graced this instrument. But it was later cut down the middle in order to “modernize” to a violoncello, marring the original proportions of the painting on the back.
In 1992, when Daniel Larson decided to recreate this instrument in its original proportions, clues could be found in the missing painting as well as other documents describing the proportions of bass violins of the time. The larger proportions restore this instrument to its bass origins and give it the dark yet articulate quality that grounded the fiery ensembles of its past.
And for the technical nuts out there, the instrument is strung in equal tension gut made by Dan Larson at a gauge best suited for A=440 in a tuning of G-C-F-Bb from top to bottom. The bow is a short Italian model by modern maker Pieter Affourtit.
*some information gleaned from here
The violoncello I play was constructed back in 1998 by Dan Foster, a family friend who also happened to be a master violinmaker. Many of the years of good musicking I have enjoyed are indebted to Dan’s skilled hands and generous spirit.

Plot: A singer's search for her missing sister leads her to a pier freakshow run by the wheelchair-ridden Dr Durea. But Dr Durea is really a descendant of the Frankenstein family and is injecting his dim-witted assistant with a serum to turn him into a monster to collect victims for his experiments in revivification of the decapitated. And at the same time Durea is coerced by Count Dracula into helping him revive the original Frankenstein monster.
It's one of the great title confrontations of all time, one that Universal in their various monster team-ups of the 1940s (`Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman' (1943), `House of Frankenstein' (1944), `House of Dracula' (1945) and `Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein' (1948)) somehow overlooked. And it was a popular idea too - there were at least two other films using the same title conflict that appeared the same year as this. But in terms of delivering on its title challenge, this is a thoroughly wasted opportunity. It's not just what an incredibly shabbily made film it is - it's that Dracula and Frankenstein seem irrelevant to the plot which is really about a girl searching for her missing sister who has been abducted into a mad scientist's ill-defined scheme that has something to do with decapitating and then reviving young women from the dead. Dracula and the Frankenstein monster do have a tussle at the climax to justify the title but it is poorly motivated confrontation.
The rest of the film is a mess. It is badly directed and the plot is a haphazard jumble (not surprising considering that it originally started out as a biker film and was turned into a monster bash to capitalize on the early 1970s classic monster revival). It is sad to watch genre veterans like an ageing and wheelchair-ridden J. Carrol Naish and an alcoholically wasted Lon Chaney Jr (in his last performance) reduced to playing in such impoverished surroundings. Forrest J. Ackerman is credited as technical advisor and has a small part as a doctor victim, something which demonstrates he should really stick to editing. Zandor Vorkov gives a performance that verges on the somnambulistic, making what is possibly the worst screen Dracula of all time.

Family of six found shot dead in Southern Philippines waters
KUALA LUMPUR: The Sabah Police on Sunday (Nov 10) confirmed a family of six, including two women and an eight-year old boy were killed, believed to have been shot in the southern Philippines waters on Tuesday.
The state Police Commissioner Omar Mammah who confirmed the incident, told Bernama all victims, who were undocumented, were from Pulau Denawan, Semporna, Sabah.
He said the victims were believed to be heading to Siasi in the southern Philippines to celebrate Maulidur Rasul with their families.
“While on a boat to Siasi during night time, they were believed to have ran into an unknown boat.
“A group of individuals on the unknown boat had approached their boat and fired shots,” he said, adding the shots killed six while two others on the boat managed to hide and were found safe.
He said the families of the victims who were worried about them when they failed to arrive at their destination went out looking for them and found a boat drifting with six bodies and two survivors on it.
"Their families brought them back to Pulau Denawan for burial before the public found out about it and lodged a police report,” he said, adding that all victims were buried on Friday.
Omar said the public lodged the police report at the Semporna District Police Headquarters.

* IN THE HIGH COURT OF DELHI AT NEW DELHI + W.P.(C) 9942/2009, W.P.(C) 9943/2009 & W.P.(C) 9944/2009 % Date of decision : 13th October, 2009 DARBARI LAL KATARIA ..... Petitioner in WPC 9942/2009. ADARSH CABLE INDUSTRIES ..... Petitioner in WPC 9943/2009 GAURAV FANS & ANR. ..... Petitioner in WPC 9944/2009 Through Mr. Anil Goel and Mr. Ashwani, Advocates. versus DELHI POLLUTION CONTROL COMMITTEE ..... Respondent Through Mr. Rahul Kumar and Mr. Dinesh, Advocates. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SANJIV KHANNA ORDER
1. This common order will dispose of the aforesaid writ petitions.
2. The petitioners herein have impugned order dated 19th June, 2009 passed by the Financial Commissioner dismissing their appeals and upholding the order passed by Delhi Pollution Control Committee refusing consent to operate under the provisions of Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner has drawn my attention to the letter dated 4th January, 2006 by DDA with reference to Zonal Plan for Zone G-3 and the letter of MCD, Town Planning Department dated 6th WPC NOS.9942-44/2009 Page 1 September, 2002 stating that the properties of the petitioners as per the sketch plan furnished by them form part of the area ear-marked for Light and Service Industry in the Zonal Plan of Zone-G.
4. In the impugned order passed by the Financial Commissioner, specific reference has not been made to the aforesaid documents. The Financial Commissioner, on the other hand, proceeds on the assumption that petitioners' units are located in an unplanned industrial area of Basaidara Pur and, therefore, are in a non-conforming area.
5. It is the contention of the petitioners that the activities undertaken by them fall in category F, Item No. 268 and 297 and are permitted in terms of Master Plan of Delhi, 2021. It is submitted that as per the Master Plan of Zone-G, Light and Service Industry are permitted in the said area and as per the letter of DDA dated 4th January, 2006, the draft Zonal Development Plan notified by Zone-G under Master Plan of Delhi, 2021 all manufacturing activities under the Light and Service Industry category are permitted in the said area.
6. The Financial Commissioner, in the impugned order without any discussion has held that the site under reference falls under Service Industry as per draft approved for Zone-G and hence and thereafter the industrial activities undertaken by the petitioners are not permitted.
7. In these circumstances, the impugned order dated 19th June, 2009 is set-aside and the matter is remanded back to the Financial WPC NOS.9942-44/2009 Page 2 Commissioner for a fresh decision. The Financial Commissioner will take into account the letters written by the DDA and MCD. In case there is doubt about the manufacturing activity permitted in the area and the location of the units of the petitioners, help of DDA and MCD will be taken to identify and locate the units. In addition, the parties can also file relevant site plan to show the exact location of the petitioners.
8. The writ petitioners are accordingly disposed of. The parties will appear before the Financial Commissioner on 4th November, 2009 when date of hearing will be fixed in the matter. It will also open to the learned Financial Commissioner to issue notice to DDA/MCD in case he requires any clarification. No costs.

Module ROT.FOV.Bresenham
Bresenham Based Ray-Casting FOV calculator.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bresenham's_line_algorithm. Included for sake of having options. Provides three functions for computing FOV
Functions
| Bresenham:__init (lightPassesCallback, options) | Constructor. |
| Bresenham:compute (cx, cy, r, callback) | Compute. |
| Bresenham:computeThorough (cx, cy, r, callback) | Compute Thorough. |
| Bresenham:computeQuick (cx, cy, r, callback) | Compute Thorough. |
Functions
- Bresenham:__init (lightPassesCallback, options)
-
Constructor.
Called with ROT.FOV.Bresenham:new()
Parameters:
- lightPassesCallback function A function with two parameters (x, y) that returns true if a map cell will allow light to pass through
- options Options
- topology int Direction for light movement Accepted values: (4 or 8)
- useDiamond boolean If true, the FOV will be a diamond shape as opposed to a circle shape.
- Bresenham:compute (cx, cy, r, callback)
-
Compute.
Get visibility from a given point.
This method cast's rays from center to points on a circle with a radius 3-units longer than the provided radius.
A list of cell's within the radius is kept. This list is checked at the end to verify that each cell has been passed to the callback.
Parameters:
- cx int x-position of center of FOV
- cy int y-position of center of FOV
- r int radius of FOV (i.e.: At most, I can see for R cells)
- callback A function that is called for every cell in view. Must accept four parameters.
- x int x-position of cell that is in view
- y int y-position of cell that is in view
- r int The cell's distance from center of FOV
- visibility number The cell's visibility rating (from 0-1). How well can you see this cell?
- Bresenham:computeThorough (cx, cy, r, callback)
-
Compute Thorough.
Get visibility from a given point.
This method cast's rays from center to every cell within the given radius.
This method is much slower, but is more likely to not generate any anomalies within the field.
Parameters:
- cx int x-position of center of FOV
- cy int y-position of center of FOV
- r int radius of FOV (i.e.: At most, I can see for R cells)
- callback A function that is called for every cell in view. Must accept four parameters.
- x int x-position of cell that is in view
- y int y-position of cell that is in view
- r int The cell's distance from center of FOV
- visibility number The cell's visibility rating (from 0-1). How well can you see this cell?
- Bresenham:computeQuick (cx, cy, r, callback)
-
Compute Thorough.
Get visibility from a given point. The quickest method provided.
This method cast's rays from center to points on a circle with a radius 3-units longer than the provided radius.
Unlike compute() this method stops at that point. It will likely miss cell's for fields with a large radius.
Parameters:
- cx int x-position of center of FOV
- cy int y-position of center of FOV
- r int radius of FOV (i.e.: At most, I can see for R cells)
- callback A function that is called for every cell in view. Must accept four parameters.
- x int x-position of cell that is in view
- y int y-position of cell that is in view
- r int The cell's distance from center of FOV
- visibility number The cell's visibility rating (from 0-1). How well can you see this cell?

Before starting this post, please go back and look at Part 1 to get the research justification for the outline below.
In an effort to make research more accessible and visible in the implementation of new ideas, here is a practical, “how-to” explanation of ways to get students to ask better questions.
While all of this can be done with paper and pencil in class, expanding the process to the web brings benefits. Students (and the teacher) can interact when and where they want. If you’re using an open community, you can also get feedback from outside sources. There is also a running record of the interactions asked and answered by each member of the community, which can be used for analysis, assessment, or just judging the health of the community.
Dan Meyer advocates questioning habits through making it a habit to ask. His keynote at CUE gives an example of how he practices asking good questions. (Please watch just a minute or two of the video. It is well worth the time.) This brings us to thing-to-try-number-one:
Have your students keep a list of questions. Not just content questions. Just questions.
Think of this as brain training. There is evidence showing that students who undergo training in asking questions score higher on information-based assessments than groups who do not receive training (Weiner 1978). Now, before you accuse me of reaching too far, the study also notes that they did not study the efficacy of a particular type of training. So, if we take Dan’s example and begin tracking perplexity, we are training our brains to pay attention to our surroundings, which could translate to the classroom. (As a closing side note, Dan also runs a website called 101 Questions which is a fun way to get kids thinking. You can also use it to upload content to get some feedback before using it with students.)
Thinking back to part 1, I gave a brief outline of a method called the “question formulation strategy. So, thing-to-try-number-two:
Try using the QFS rather than a more common tool like the KWL.
I know both strategies essentially do the same thing – get students to reflect on their learning as it happens. I like QFS better because the metacognitive processes the students engage in are open ended and content agnostic. The students are free to ask questions on anything they want, which gives then an open route to make connections on their own. The KWL also has a “finality” to it…once the student learns what they want to know (the “W” column), there is little invitation to continue exploring. QFS, on the other hand, encourages further questioning at every stage.
Finally, thing-to-try-number-three:
Use an online Q&A platform for peer feedback on questionins.
Remember, there is evidence showing that questions alone aren’t enough. We need feedback. I mentiond earlier that StackExchange is a great platform for both asking and answering questions, but the added layer of voting and commenting serves as the quality control. Unfortunately, getting the platform for student use is more complicated.
StackExchange is a private company – the platform is not open source. I did some searching and there are some open-source alternatives which can be used, but they’re not insignificant to get set up.
The way I see it, there is a large community of educators with the know-how and the interest in getting something like I’ve described set up. I’m even willing to throw in my small-beans experience in helping to set up and maintain a site. If there is interest in experimenting with this idea (I’m not in the classroom, or I’d try it myself), leave a comment and we’ll see what we can do.

User Guide¶
HPAT supports a subset of Python that is commonly used for data analytics and machine learning. This section describes this subset.
HPAT compiles and parallelizes the functions annotated with the @hpat.jit decorator. Therefore, file I/O and computations on large datasets should be inside the jitted functions. The supported data structures for large datasets are Numpy arrays and Pandas dataframes.
Enabling Parallelization¶
To enable parallelization, HPAT needs to recognize the large datasets and their computation in the program. Hence, only the supported data-parallel operators of Numpy and Pandas can be used for large datasets and computations. The sequential computation on small data can be any code that Numba supports.
Supported Numpy Operations¶
Below is the list of the data-parallel Numpy operators that HPAT can optimize and parallelize.

Optional arguments are not supported unless if explicitly mentioned here. For operations on multi-dimensional arrays, automatic broadcast of dimensions of size 1 is not supported.
Explicit Parallel Loops¶
Sometimes a program cannot be written in terms of data-parallel operators easy
and explicit parallel loops are required.
In this case, one can use HPAT’s prange
instead of range
to specify that a
loop can be parallelized. The user is required to make sure that the loop does
not have cross iteration dependencies except the supported reductions.
Currently, only sum using the +=
operator is supported.
The example below demonstrates a parallel loop with a
reduction:
from hpat import jit, prange
@jit
def prange_test(n):
A = np.random.ranf(n)
s = 0
for i in prange(len(A)):
s += A[i]
return s
Supported Pandas Operations¶
Below is the list of the Pandas operators that HPAT supports. Since Numba doesn’t support Pandas, only these operations can be used for both large and small datasets.
- HPAT supports Dataframe creation with the
DataFrame
constructor. Only a dictionary is supported as input. For example:
df = pd.DataFrame({'A': np.ones(n), 'B': np.random.ranf(n)})
- HPAT supports Dataframe creation with the
- Accessing columns using both getitem (e.g.
df['A']
) and attribute (e.g.
df.A
) is supported.
- Accessing columns using both getitem (e.g.
- Using columns similar to Numpy arrays and performing data-parallel operations
listed previously is supported.
- Filtering data frames using boolean arrays is supported
(e.g.
df[df.A > .5]
).
- Rolling window operations with window and center options are supported.
Here are a few examples:
df.A.rolling(window=5).mean() df.A.rolling(3, center=True).apply(lambda a: a[0]+2*a[1]+a[2])
shift
operation (e.g.df.A.shift(1)
) andpct_change
operation(e.g.
df.A.pct_change()
) are supported.
File I/O¶
Currently, HPAT only supports I/O for the HDF5 format. The syntax is the same as the h5py package. For example:
@hpat.jit
def example():
f = h5py.File("lr.hdf5", "r")
X = f['points'][:]
Y = f['responses'][:]
HPAT needs to know the types of input arrays. If the file name is a constant string, HPAT tries to look at the file at compile time and recognize the types. Otherwise, the user is responsile for providing the types similar to Numba’s typing syntax. For example:
@hpat.jit(locals={'X': hpat.float64[:,:], 'Y': hpat.float64[:]})
def example(file_name):
f = h5py.File(file_name, "r")
X = f['points'][:]
Y = f['responses'][:]
Strings¶
Currently, HPAT provides basic ASCII string support. Constant strings, equality
comparison of strings (==
and !=
), split
function, extracting
characters (e.g. s[1]
), concatination, and convertion to int and float
are supported. Here are some examples:
s = 'test_str'
flag = (s == 'test_str')
flag = (s != 'test_str')
s_list = s.split('_')
c = s[1]
s = s+'_test'
a = int('12')
b = float('1.2')
Dictionaries¶
HPAT supports basic integer dictionaries currently. DictIntInt
is the type
for dictionaries with 64-bit integer keys and values, while DictInt32Int32
is for 32-bit integer ones. Getting and setting values, pop
and get
operators, as well as min
and max
of keys is supported. For example:
d = DictIntInt()
d[2] = 3
a = d[2]
b = d.get(3, 0)
d.pop(2)
d[3] = 4
a = min(d.keys())

This R package provides the model we inferred in the publication “Perturbation-response genes reveal signaling footprints in cancer gene expression” and a function to obtain pathway scores from a gene expression matrix. It is available on bioRxiv.
airway
package data for pathway scoresThis is to outline how to prepare expression data, in this case from the airway
package for pathway activity analysis using PROGENy.
library(airway) library(DESeq2) data(airway) # import data to DESeq2 and variance stabilize dset = DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(assay(airway), colData=as.data.frame(colData(airway)), design=~dex) dset = estimateSizeFactors(dset) dset = estimateDispersions(dset) gene_expr = getVarianceStabilizedData(dset) # annotate matrix with HGNC symbols library(biomaRt) mart = useDataset("hsapiens_gene_ensembl", useMart("ensembl")) genes = getBM(attributes = c("ensembl_gene_id","hgnc_symbol"), values=rownames(gene_expr), mart=mart) matched = match(rownames(gene_expr), genes$ensembl_gene_id) rownames(gene_expr) = genes$hgnc_symbol[matched]
We can then use the progeny
function to score the expression matrix. Note that we are scaling the pathway scores with respect to the controls only.
So now we might be interested how the treatment with dexamethasone affects signaling pathways. To do this, we check if the control is different to the perturbed condition using a linear model:
library(dplyr) result = apply(pathways, 1, function(x) { broom::tidy(lm(x ~ !controls)) %>% filter(term == "!controlsTRUE") %>% dplyr::select(-term) }) mutate(bind_rows(result), pathway=names(result))

What we see is that indeed the p53/DNA damage response pathway is less active after treatment than before.
Below is an example on how to calculate pathway scores for cell lines in the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) panel, and to check for associations with drug response.
The code used for the analyses is available on Github.
This example shows how to use the GDSC gene expression data of multiple cell lines together with PROGENy to calculate pathway activity and then to check for associations with drug sensitivity.
First, we need the GDSC data for both gene expression and drug response. They are available on the GDSC1000 web site:
# set up a file cache so we download only once library(BiocFileCache) bfc = BiocFileCache(".") # gene expression and drug response base = "http://www.cancerrxgene.org/gdsc1000/GDSC1000_WebResources/Data/" paths = bfcrpath(bfc, paste0(base, c("suppData/TableS4A.xlsx", "preprocessed/Cell_line_RMA_proc_basalExp.txt.zip")))
You can also download the files manually (adjust the file names when loading):
First, we need to load the files we just downloaded into R to be able to perform the analysis:
# load the downloaded files drug_table <- readxl::read_excel(paths[1], skip=5, na="NA") drug_table <- replace(drug_table, is.na(drug_table), 0) gene_table <- readr::read_tsv(paths[2]) # we need drug response with COSMIC IDs drug_response <- data.matrix(drug_table[,3:ncol(drug_table)]) rownames(drug_response) <- drug_table[[1]] # we need genes in rows and samples in columns gene_expr <- data.matrix(gene_table[,3:ncol(gene_table)]) colnames(gene_expr) <- sub("DATA.", "", colnames(gene_expr), fixed=TRUE) rownames(gene_expr) <- gene_table$GENE_SYMBOLS
Activity inference is done using a weighted sum of the model genes. We can run this without worrying about the order of genes in the expression matrix using:
library(progeny) pathways <- progeny(gene_expr,scale = TRUE, organism = "Human", top = 100, perm = 1, verbose = FALSE)
To visualize the progeny result
library(pheatmap) myColor = colorRampPalette(c("Darkblue", "white","red"))(100) pheatmap(pathways,fontsize=14, show_rownames = FALSE, color=myColor, main = "PROGENy", angle_col = 45, treeheight_col = 0, border_color = NA)
We now have the pathway activity scores for the pathways defined in PROGENy:

Trametinib is a MEK inhibitor, so we would assume that cell lines that have a higher MAPK activity are more sensitive to MEK inhibition.
We can test this the following way:
cell_lines = intersect(rownames(pathways), rownames(drug_response)) trametinib = drug_response[cell_lines, "Trametinib"] mapk = pathways[cell_lines, "MAPK"] associations = lm(trametinib ~ mapk) summary(associations)
##
## Call:
## lm(formula = trametinib ~ mapk)

## Min 1Q Median 3Q Max

## F-statistic: 444.6 on 1 and 960 DF, p-value: < 2.2e-16
And indeed we find that MAPK activity is strongly associated with sensitivity to Trametinib: the Pr(>|t|)
is much smaller than the conventional threshold of 0.05
.
The intercept is significant as well, but we’re not really interested if the mean drug response is above or below 0
in this case.
Note, however, that we tested all cell lines at once and did not adjust for the effect different tissues may have.

Strengths and limitations
and enjoy learning new things. Despite a few setbacks in life I always make sure I give everything I can, and used this determination to pass my degree at university, and am currently using it to tackle web development too.
My main limmitation is probably that I'm quite introverted. I often struggle with talking to people I dont know very well, and It sometimes causes me to suffer, as I do things like not ask questions because I feel like im being a pain.
It also makes writing things like my reflections and these blog posts hard, as I never really know what to say, and dont often share my personal thoughts and beliefs.
A time working with a group that got tense
and it would sometimes seem like you were doing more work than others. The best way I found to deal with this was just communicating with each other properly, and finding out a way to work that suited everyone.
It was also good to tell people about any reason you might not be able to do a specific task, and also finding out what everyones strengths were so you could divide up the work in a way that worked best for everyone involved.
Being able to be so easily connected to people and things happening all over the world has opened my eyes to many things, both good and bad.
Being connected to people of all kinds of different backgrounds and identities has taught me the importance of acceptance and kindness.

Apache HTTP Server Version 2.4
| Description: | Dynamic mass reverse proxy extension for
mod_proxy |
|---|---|
| Status: | Extension |
| Module�Identifier: | proxy_express_module |
| Source�File: | mod_proxy_express.c |
This module creates dynamically configured mass reverse
proxies, by mapping the Host: header of the HTTP request to
a server name and backend URL stored in a DBM file.
This allows for easy use of a huge number of reverse proxies
with no configuration changes. It is much less feature-full
than mod_proxy_balancer
, which also provides
dynamic growth, but is intended to handle much, much
larger numbers of backends. It is ideally suited as a
front-end HTTP switch and for micro-services architectures.
This module requires the service of mod_proxy
.
Do not enable proxying until you have secured your server. Open proxy servers are dangerous both to your network and to the Internet at large.
mod_proxy_balancer
. Instead, it is intended to be mostly
a lightweight and fast alternative to using mod_rewrite
with RewriteMap
and the [P]
flag
for mapped reverse proxying.
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName front.end.server ProxyPass "/" "back.end.server:port" ProxyPassReverse "/" "back.end.server:port" </VirtualHost>That is, the entire URL is appended to the mapped backend URL. This is in keeping with the intent of being a simple but fast reverse proxy switch.

Great-grandma who's just turned 100 is 'oldest Labour Party member in country'
Bristolian Pamela Parsons has just celebrated her 100th birthday but has already sent off her postal vote for this week's election - and once again she's backing Labour
by Kate WilsonA great-grandmother thought to be the oldest Labour Party member in the country has turned 100.
Bristolian Pamela Parsons celebrated her 100th birthday last Thursday with a party thrown for her by her family and staff at the assisted living home where she lives.
The centenarian was born a year after the end of the First World War - and a year after suffragettes won some women the right to vote in Britain.
Pamela began ticking Labour on her ballot papers the first chance she got and hasn't stopped in the eight decades since.
She had been introduced to the world of politics at an early age as her adopted mum was an Alderman in the city, reports Bristol Live .
And it was through this political connection that she got involved with the Labour Party and has remained a member ever since she was a child.
Do you know a member of the Labour Party who's older? Email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Although Pamela now suffers from dementia, she still remembers canvassing around Bristol and hosting Labour Party committee meetings in the living room of her council flat.
Former Bristol MP Tony Benn - who Pamela describes as being “a very charming man” - was among the guests at the meetings.
Mr Benn was elected Labour MP for Bristol South East in 1950 and went on to represent the city in the House of Commons for 30 years.
But Pamela still remembers him sitting in her living room talking to Labour members and supporters especially on an election night when her flat was used as a makeshift party headquarters as they awaited the results.
Pamela has a daughter, two grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
Her daughter Pamela Plumley, 64, says she remembers one election night when she was around 11 years old, where dozens of people piled into their living room and ran back and forth from the count to try and tally up the results.
"Being a member of the Labour Party has been a huge part of mum's life since she was a child," said Pamela.
"We found a pin once from her time as a member of The Labour League of Youth, and even in her 90s she was still going to committee meetings and delivering the Observer in her shopping trolley around Kingswood.
Even at 100 Pamela has no plans to leave the world of politics behind completely.
She has already sent of her postal vote for Thursday’s general election - and of course, she is voting for Labour.

The Values of My Life
What is the value to choosing?
April 14, 2015
The values I'm going to talk to you about today are pretty simple: adventure, creativity, courage, integrity, persistence and wisdow. I've picked these because I feel that they are the most important values in my life, currently. Does that mean that others aren't important? Goodnesss no. But some of these have a time and a place, and some of them will always be boiling just below the surface, adding additional structure to how I build my life.
But if I had to pick one, I'd have to go with wisdom. To me wisdom is more encompassing than a lot of the other ones. Wisdom takes many of these other values in order to be true. You cannot be wise without being knowledgeable or creative, adventurous or having integrity. I view it as fundamental to leading a full life.
The last thing somebody asked my advice about was jobs. I had a long conversation with a young graduate about the merits of working abroad. As a person who spent the last year working in China I feel like I have a strong understanding of this decision and good advice to share. It certainly relates to the values I find important, but also goes to show how they are all connected. I feel like it was my wisdom on living abroad that was sought, but this was possible because this person considers me a loyal and trustworthy person to talk with.
I think I do tend to fall back on my values in tough times, but I think our values should be our ultimate source of confidence. Over time, as we grow older and wiser, I think we become clearer in our minds as to which words really fit us, and that offers a sense of security in a crazy world. Knowing that we're loyal, for instance, can help us in fights with friends. Knowing you're smart can give you confidence to take on new challenges. I 100% feel like keeping my values in mind helps me move forward in this world.

THE BUTTONERS (Czech, in Czech and English) A review by Mark R. Leeper in bullet-list form from the Toronto Internation Film Festival
CAPSULE: A series of comedy sketches inter-related dealing with absurd uses of science, strange sexual perversions, marital infidelity, etc. The result is occasionally funny, but much more often the pieces just seem to fall flat. It could be, however, that some of the humor has been lost in the translation. Rating: 3 (0 to 10), -1 (-4 to +4)
- Made for Czech television. - Written and directed by Petr Zelenka. - Several inter-related skits: Japanese learn to swear in the final hours before the Hiroshima bomb is dropped while the bomber crew swears a blue streak, a cab driver has two consecutive set of passengers who want to use the cab for sex, two pairs of prospective in-laws meet each other and discover each other's perversions, a couple plays odd games near a railroad track, a laid-off railroad employee and his wife discuss a plan to send sperm into space, the pilot of the Enola Gay is resurrected by seance, etc. - Props from one skit show up in the next, then turn out to be connections between skits. - Historically inaccurate about the bombing of Hiroshima. - There are sufficient links between the segments to put them in some chronological order, much like PULP FICTION. - Very negative on United States and the decision to use the bomb without examining the historic alternatives. - The film has a sort of cult following in Czech Republic, much like Monty Python over here. It is unlikely to be seen in the US. - Some of the concepts are very strange including a party of two bourgeois couples who each have their own weird perversion. - The structure is more interesting than the content.

Lock Modes
The application may increase the level of locking for an entity by specifying the use of lock modes. Lock modes may be specified to increase the level of optimistic locking or to request the use of pessimistic locks.
The use of optimistic lock modes causes the persistence provider to check the version attributes for entities that were read (but not modified) during a transaction as well as for those entities that were updated.
The use of pessimistic lock modes specifies that the persistence provider is to immediately acquire long-term read or write locks for the database data corresponding to entity state.
The lock mode for an entity operation may be set by specifying one of the lock modes defined in the javax.persistence.LockModeType enumerated type, listed in Table 37-1.
Lock Mode |
Description |
|---|---|
OPTIMISTIC |
Obtain an optimistic read lock for all entities with a version attribute. |
OPTIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT |
Obtain an optimistic read lock for all entities with a version attribute, and increment the version attribute value. |
PESSIMISTIC_READ |
Immediately obtain a long-term read lock on the data to prevent the data from being modified or deleted. Other transactions may read the data while the lock is maintained, but may not modify or delete the data. The persistence provider is permitted to obtain a database write lock when a read lock was requested, but not vice versa. |
PESSIMISTIC_WRITE |
Immediately obtain a long-term write lock on the data to prevent the data from being read, modified, or deleted. |
PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT |
Immediately obtain a long-term lock on the data to prevent the data from being modified or deleted, and increment the version attribute of versioned entities. |
READ |
A synonym for OPTIMISTIC. Use of LockModeType.OPTIMISTIC is to be preferred for new applications. |
WRITE |
A synonym for OPTIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT. Use of LockModeType.OPTIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT is to be preferred for new applications. |
NONE |
No additional locking will occur on the data in the database. |
Setting the Lock Mode
The lock mode may be specified by one of the following techniques:
Calling the EntityManager.lock and passing in one of the lock modes:
EntityManager em = ...; Person person = ...; em.lock(person, LockModeType.OPTIMISTIC);
Calling one of the EntityManager.find methods that takes the lock mode as a parameter:
EntityManager em = ...; String personPK = ...; Person person = em.find(Person.class, personPK, LockModeType.PESSIMISTIC_WRITE);
Calling one of the EntityManager.refresh methods that takes the lock mode as a parameter:
EntityManager em = ...; String personPK = ...; Person person = em.find(Person.class, personPK); ... em.refresh(person, LockModeType.OPTIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT);
Calling the Query.setLockMode or TypedQuery.setLockMode method, passing the lock mode as the parameter:
Query q = em.createQuery(...); q.setLockMode(LockModeType.PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT);
Adding a lockMode element to the @NamedQuery annotation:
@NamedQuery(name="lockPersonQuery", query="SELECT p FROM Person p WHERE p.name LIKE :name", lockMode=PESSIMISTIC_READ)
Using Pessimistic Locking
Versioned entities as well as entities that do not have a version attribute can be locked pessimistically.
To lock entities pessimistically, set the lock mode to PESSIMISTIC_READ, PESSIMISTIC_WRITE, or PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT.
If a pessimistic lock cannot be obtained on the database rows, and the failure to lock the data results in a transaction rollback, a PessimisticLockException is thrown. If a pessimistic lock cannot be obtained, but the locking failure doesn't result in a transaction rollback, a LockTimeoutException is thrown.
Pessimistically locking a version entity with PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT results in the version attribute being incremented, even if the entity data is unmodified. When pessimistically locking a versioned entity, the persistence provider will perform the version checks that occur during optimistic locking, and if the version check fails, an OptimisticLockException will be thrown. Attempting to lock a non-versioned entity with PESSIMISTIC_FORCE_INCREMENT is not portable and may result in a PersistenceException if the persistence provider doesn't support optimistic locks for non-versioned entities. Locking a versioned entity with PESSIMISTIC_WRITE results in the version attribute being incremented if the transaction was successfully committed.
Pessimistic Locking Timeouts
The length of time in milliseconds the persistence provider should wait to obtain a lock on the database tables may be specified using the javax.persistence.lock.timeout property. If the time it takes to obtain a lock exceeds the value of this property, a LockTimeoutException will be thrown, but the current transaction will not be marked for rollback. If this property is set to 0, the persistence provider should throw a LockTimeoutException if it cannot immediately obtain a lock.
Note - Portable applications should not rely on the setting of javax.persistence.lock.timeout, as the locking strategy and underlying database may mean that the timeout value cannot be used. The value of javax.persistence.lock.timeout is a hint, not a contract.
This property may be set programmatically by passing it to the EntityManager methods that allow lock modes to be specified, the Query.setLockMode and TypedQuery.setLockMode methods, the @NamedQuery annotation, and as a property to the Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory method. It may also be set as a property in the persistence.xml deployment descriptor.
If javax.persistence.lock.timeout is set in multiple places, the value will be determined in the following order:
The argument to one of the EntityManager or Query methods.
The setting in the @NamedQuery annotation.
The argument to the Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory method.
The value in the persistence.xml deployment descriptor.
