This page contains information on the various build services that are provided to all ASF projects for continuous integration, builds, testing, snapshots and deployment.
Projects therefore have a choice, you can choose to utilise any or all of the services provided should that make sense. See the More Information section for how to subscribe to one list that all these services are subscribed to.
Buildbot is a python based third party open source software chosen by the infrastructure team to provide extra build services to any Apache project that wants to utilise it.
Currently Buildbot is housed on thirteen machines/VMs:
For a detailed list of what Buildbot can do for your project, see the main Buildbot page for more info.
Apache Gump is a cross-project continuous integration server. It is different from "usual" CI servers in that it expects the individual project builds to succeed; its purpose is to check the integration of a project with the latest code rather than a fixed version of the project's dependencies. If you want a more traditional nightly build server Gump is not for you. Use Gump if you want to know when a change in your dependencies breaks your project or when your changes break other projects.
Gump is written in Python and supports several build tools (shell scripts, GNU make, Ant, Maven 1.x and 2.x and NAnt) and version control systems (svn, CVS, git, bzr, hg, darcs and Perforce). The Apache installation of Gump builds many ASF projects and their dependencies. It started in the Java part of the foundation but also builds projects like APR, HTTPd and log4net.
The ASF runs a Jenkins continuous-integration server at https://builds.apache.org/. The Jenkins setup consists of a master server running on an Ubuntu machine (Aegis) and several build slave servers, including five Ubuntu slaves, FreeBSD and Windows slaves, two Solaris slaves and an OSX Apple XServe. Thanks go to Apple, Yahoo! and HP for donating some of these slaves!
Any ASF project can run build and test tasks for their projects in Jenkins. See the wiki page for more information.
There is a mailing list setup to handle everything build related for all of the build service platforms mentioned above. Those involved with projects are encouraged to sign up.
There are admins from all above services signed up to the list and where applicable to them - and in their own volunteer time, will help with your queries.

HTML is an acronym for the phrase 'Hyper Text Markup Language'. It is used for web pages to define its structure. A HTML is broken into three parts: the start tag, the contents, and the end tag. Through this, it tells the browser which piece of text is a link, a paragraph, a heading, or anything else.
I decided to take this class to learn a basic understanding of code. I wanted to try an online class, and this seems like a good place to start. I was also thinking of maybe making a freelance art website.


What Is Ladies Circle?
Ladies Circle is a club that exists to offer the best opportunity possible for young women to connect, have a great time and give something back. Though the club was established in a different time, the original aims and principles remain as relevant today as ever.
Considering the modern, fresh attitude of Circlers, it often comes as a surprise to new members that Ladies Circle has been around for 80 years.
The first group, Bournemouth No. 1 Circle, first met in 1932 as a social group for the wives of Round Tablers. Now entirely modernised, the club is still going strong and stands as a testament to how Ladies Circle has moved with the times.
A National Movement
Eight more circles followed in 1936 in Manchester, Hastings, Liverpool, Doncaster, Middlesborough, Wolverhampton and Southampton, and soon after the national association was formed, under the guidance of first president, Win Hussey.
Then World War II hit, and Ladies Circle struggled to keep going. But it did survive, thanks to Edina Headon who kept the movement going and, leading from 1939 to 1948, is to this day Ladies Circle’s longest serving National President.
Going International
In 1947 Ladies Circle went international, with Great Britain & Ireland helping to set up Circles in Denmark and Sweden. This led to the founding of the Ladies Circle International organisation in 1958 to bring together Circlers from across the globe.
Later that year, to celebrate 21 years of Ladies Circle, the national executive decided to adopt Imperial Cancer Research as the Ladies Circle national charity. The first donation was £6,607, and we continued to support the charity as our national cause up until 2013 - which itself has modernised and is now known as Cancer Research UK – raising hundreds of thousands of pounds. Clubs now focus on raising funds for their own local causes.
Opening Up to a New Century
In the 1990s Ladies Circle opened up its membership to all women. We remain proud of our roots, and are still part of the Round Table family, but we have transformed into a unique, truly open organisation that welcomes ALL women aged between 18 and 45.
We hope you’ll help us build on our history, and we put everything we’ve learned over the years into making sure Ladies Circle remains an open, supportive and exciting environment for women everywhere – women like you!

Now I’m a member myself and I love being part of an network of women who support each other and contribute positively to their local, national and international communities. I’ve made some great friends and had lots of fun trying new activities (even slightly improving my terrible craft skills!), but also helped to raise funds for some great local and national charities.
 It’s really helped me find my own identity again and have some ‘me-time’ after having children and losing myself in the chaos of parenthood.
During the current situation our regular virtual meetings have kept my spirits up - we have shared the highs and lows of Lockdown as well as some useful resources for things like homeschooling, and I always end our catch ups feeling more positive and recharged.

Correlation¶
Relate to the way people use the term correlation, often they mention events or things that are expected to happen together. We may use the term loosely
and may interprate that one is causing the other. But when we study correlation, we are always told correlation is not causation and so our initial inkling mustn’t be that conclusion.
for e.g. one may say, “It rains whenever I wear white”, we know that this cant be true but statements such as these sometimes may be interpreted as one causing the other.
The most comman form of correlation coefficient that most data scientists compute is called
pearson correlation coefficient. Normally, when we say correlation it is assumed that its pearson correlation that’s been computed, but it doesn’t take a lot to confirm.
We will discuss 3 types correlation coefficients but you may find a few more in the literature.
Pearson correlation coefficient
Spearman correlation coefficient
Point Biseral correlation coefficient
Pearson correlation coefficient¶
As mentioned this is the most common form of correlation coefficient, and its computed as follows.
$\(
\rho_{X, Y} = \frac{\mathbb{E}[(X - \mu_{X})(Y - \mu_{Y})]}{\sigma_{X} \sigma_{Y}}
\)$
The numerator represents covariance between X and Y and the denominator represents the standard deviation.
The use of standard deviation suggests that pearson coefficient assumes that the distribution is a form of normal/gaussian distribution.
Here are few important elements to remember about the coefficient.
It measures a linear relationship/trend between two numerical variables and is effected by outliers.
Correlation ranges from -1 to 1, wherein value of -1 represents perfect negative. While a value of 1 reflects perfect positive correlation.
A positive correlation value suggests that both quantities increase together.
A negative correlation value suggests that as one value increases the other decreases.
A value of zero(0) correlation suggests that there is no linear relationship between the quantities.
Correlation value is unit less as you would observe from the equation above (the units cancel out), which means it isn’t associate with any measurement and so can be used for comparisons. for e.g correlation value of 0.9 is the same even if the value is measured in kilometers or miles.
Let’s demonstrate this with some code. We will import some libraries.
# importing some libraries
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from scipy.stats.stats import pearsonr
# Create different scenarios of correlation
perfect_pos_corr = [(x, x + 2) for x in range(1, 11)]
pos_corr_outlier = perfect_pos_corr.copy()
pos_corr_outlier.extend([(11, 6), (12, 2)])
perfect_neg_corr = [
(x, y) for x, y in zip(range(1, 11), sorted(range(1, 11), reverse=True))
]
np.random.seed(0)
no_corr = [(np.random.randn(500), np.random.randn(500))]
x1, y1 = zip(*perfect_pos_corr)
x2, y2 = zip(*perfect_neg_corr)
x3, y3 = zip(*no_corr)
x4, y4 = zip(*pos_corr_outlier)
The first graph shows a perfect positive linear trend with a value of 1, while the second graph shows a perfect negative trend, with a value of -1. We also have the third graph which almost certainly shows a random set of points with no linear trend and thus it has a correlation value of nearly(-0.04) zero. The last plot is rather interesting because, it almost has a perfect positive linear trend but has two points which are outlier points. Thus, by adding a few outliers we have affected the pearson correlation cofficient by a large degree i.e. dropping the strength of relationship from a value of 1 to 0.36, which suggests weak linear relationship.
fig, ((ax1, ax2), (ax3, ax4)) = plt.subplots(nrows=2, ncols=2, figsize=(15, 8))
ax1.scatter(x1, y1, color="orange", edgecolor="k")
ax1.set_title(f"Perfect Positive Correlation -> {round(pearsonr(x1,y1)[0],2)}")
ax2.scatter(x2, y2, color="orange", edgecolor="k")
ax2.set_title(f"Perfect Negative Correlation -> {round(pearsonr(x2,y2)[0],2)}")
ax3.scatter(x3, y3, alpha=0.5, color="orange", edgecolor="k")
ax3.set_title(f"Nearly No Correlation -> {round(pearsonr(x3[0],y3[0])[0],2)}")
ax4.scatter(x4, y4, alpha=0.5, color="orange", edgecolor="k")
ax4.set_title(
f"Positive Correlation with outliers -> {round(pearsonr(x4,y4)[0],2)}"
)
plt.show()
Spearman Correlation Coefficient¶
Spearman correlation coefficient has some advantages over pearson correlation coefficient. It performs well in cases where pearson correlation coefficient doesnt pick the strength of relationship between the features. It is defined as follows, $\( r_{s} = \frac{cov((R(X),R(Y))}{\sigma_{R(X)} \sigma_{R(Y)}} \)$ The numerator represents covariance between the rank of the values in X and in Y and the denominator represents the standard deviation of the rank. So if you had a table with examples such as below, ranks are calculated in the following manner.
X |
Y |
R(X) |
R(Y) |
|---|---|---|---|
20 |
5 |
20 |
3 |
10 |
2 |
1 |
1 |
50 |
80 |
3 |
2 |
Here are few important elements to remember about the coefficient.
It measures linear or non-linear trend between two numerical variables and the are not as sensitive to outliers as pearson correlation coefficient is.
It ranges from -1 to 1, wherein value of -1 represents perfect negative. While a value of 1 reflects perfect positive correlation.
A positive correlation value suggests that both quantities increase together.
A negative correlation value suggests that as one value increases the other decreases.
A value of zero(0) correlation suggests that there is no linear relationship between the quantities.
Same as pearson, the value is unit less and can be used for comparisons.

Stardust, by Jeanne Willis & Briony May Smith
“One little girl dreams of being a star. But whether it’s finding Mum’s lost wedding ring or winning the fancy-dress prize, her big sister always shines brighter.
“Yet for her grandad she is a star and, as he dries her eyes and they both gaze up at the night sky, he tells a story, the story of the beginning of the world. Everything and everyone is made of stardust, and we all shine in different ways. It’s a lesson this little girl will never forget - and one day her dream comes true, and she finally realises her ambition to become an astronaut and fly up to the stars.”
Bye-bye Baby Brother!, by Sheena Dempsey
“Ruby loves nothing more than playing, especially with Mum. But Mum is always so busy with Oliver, Ruby’s little baby brother, and Ruby is tired of waiting. She’s already looked at TONS of books, painted SO MANY pictures and she’s even dressed her dog Rory in a very fetching stripy jumper. Babies are so boring. Ruby stomps out into the garden and there she begins to wonder - what if she could magic Oliver away?”
Mr Super Poopy Pants, by Rebecca Elliott
“Toby was looking forward to all the adventures he would have with his new baby brother. But Benjy can’t run around, invent gadgets or fight crime. He just poops. All the time. Can Toby learn to love his little brother all the same?”
Mr Bear’s New Baby, by Debi Gliori
“Mr and Mrs Bear and their woodland friends try everything to quieten the baby, but nothing works. Then her big sister has an idea.”
Oliver and the Noisy Baby, by Mara Bergman & Nick Maland
“Oliver’s baby sister won’t stop crying. Oliver gets in his plane and travels to distant lands to get away from the noise. But Oliver wonders if back home his sister might need him? So he flies back to cuddle his sister to sleep!”
The Perfect Baby, by Tony Bradman & Holly Swain
“Lucy’s new baby brother, William, is noisy and smelly, so Lucy insists he is returned to the hospital. She’d like to try another baby brother instead. But after trying a succession of babies from the New Baby Department, it dawns on Lucy that maybe baby William wasn’t so bad after all.”
Don’t Be Horrid, Henry!, by Francesca Simon & Tony Ross
“It’s a shock for Horrid Henry when Perfect Peter is born, and, despite his efforts, he can’t manage to get rid of him. But the day comes when Henry finds himself saving Peter from a big fierce dog, and discovers that it is rather nice to be a hero.”
Wolfie the Bunny, by Ame Dyckman & Zachariah Ohora
“The Bunny family has adopted a wolf son, and daughter Dot is the only one who realises Wolfie is going to eat them all up! Dot trieds to get through to her parents, but they are too smitten to listen. A new brother takes getting used to and when (in a twist of fate) it’s Wolfie who’s threatened, will his big sister Dot save the day?”

It is still a matter of wonder how the Martians are able to slay men so swiftly and so silently. Many think that in some way they are able to generate an intense heat in a chamber of practically absolute non–conductivity. This intense heat they project in a parallel beam against any object they choose, by means of a polished parabolic mirror of unknown composition, much as the parabolic mirror of a lighthouse projects a beam of light. But no one has absolutely proved these details. However it is done, it is certain that a beam of heat is the essence of the matter. Heat, and invisible, instead of visible, light. Whatever is combustible flashes into flame at its touch, lead runs like water, it softens iron, cracks and melts glass, and when it falls upon water, incontinently that explodes into steam.
That night nearly forty people lay under the starlight about the pit, charred and distorted beyond recognition, and all night long the common from Horsell to Maybury was deserted and brightly ablaze.
The news of the massacre probably reached Chobham, Woking, and Ottershaw about the same time. In Woking the shops had closed when the tragedy happened, and a number of people, shop people and so forth, attracted by the stories they had heard, were walking over the Horsell Bridge and along the road between the hedges that runs out at last upon the common. You may imagine the young people brushed up after the labours of the day, and making this novelty, as they would make any novelty, the excuse for walking together and enjoying a trivial flirtation. You may figure to yourself the hum of voices along the road in the gloaming. . . .
As yet, of course, few people in Woking even knew that the cylinder had opened, though poor Henderson had sent a messenger on a bicycle to the post office with a special wire to an evening paper.
As these folks came out by twos and threes upon the open, they found little knots of people talking excitedly and peering at the spinning mirror over the sand pits, and the newcomers were, no doubt, soon infected by the excitement of the occasion.
By half past eight, when the Deputation was destroyed, there may have been a crowd of three hundred people or more at this place, besides those who had left the road to approach the Martians nearer. There were three policemen too, one of whom was mounted, doing their best, under instructions from Stent, to keep the people back and deter them from approaching the cylinder. There was some booing from those more thoughtless and excitable souls to whom a crowd is always an occasion for noise and horse–play.
Stent and Ogilvy, anticipating some possibilities of a collision, had telegraphed from Horsell to the barracks as soon as the Martians emerged, for the help of a company of soldiers to protect these strange creatures from violence. After that they returned to lead that ill–fated advance. The description of their death, as it was seen by the crowd, tallies very closely with my own impressions: the three puffs of green smoke, the deep humming note, and the flashes of flame.
But that crowd of people had a far narrower escape than mine. Only the fact that a hummock of heathery sand intercepted the lower part of the Heat–Ray saved them. Had the elevation of the parabolic mirror been a few yards higher, none could have lived to tell the tale. They saw the flashes and the men falling and an invisible hand, as it were, lit the bushes as it hurried towards them through the twilight. Then, with a whistling note that rose above the droning of the pit, the beam swung close over their heads, lighting the tops of the beech trees that line the road, and splitting the bricks, smashing the windows, firing the window frames, and bringing down in crumbling ruin a portion of the gable of the house nearest the corner.
In the sudden thud, hiss, and glare of the igniting trees, the panic–stricken crowd seems to have swayed hesitatingly for some moments. Sparks and burning twigs began to fall into the road, and single leaves like puffs of flame. Hats and dresses caught fire. Then came a crying from the common. There were shrieks and shouts, and suddenly a mounted policeman came galloping through the confusion with his hands clasped over his head, screaming.
"They're coming!" a woman shrieked, and incontinently everyone was turning and pushing at those behind, in order to clear their way to Woking again. They must have bolted as blindly as a flock of sheep. Where the road grows narrow and black between the high banks the crowd jammed, and a desperate struggle occurred. All that crowd did not escape; three persons at least, two women and a little boy, were crushed and trampled there, and left to die amid the terror and the darkness.

Table of contents - 2. Features
The StringSearch library - while being reasonably small - attempts to provide a variety of high-performance pattern matching algorithms for all common data types.
All algorithms search in bytes, chars and Strings. If accessing the underlying char array in String through Reflection is allowed, the overhead of cloning the char array is avoided if the text to search exceeds a certain length. This length is based on the speed of Reflection in the Java Virtual Machine used. The length is discovered when the com.eaio.stringsearch.StringSearch class is loaded. As of Release 1, performance data from the current Java Virtual Machines from Sun, IBM, BEA and Transvirtual is included.
StringSearch also contains a stripped-down version with only three algorithms called StringSearch-mini that is useful if few space is available. StringSearch-mini contains the BNDM, BNDM Wildcards and Boyer, Moore, Horspool, Raita algorithms in a JAR archive of only 10 KB size. StringSearch-mini does not use the native library.
StringSearch contains a native library that further accelerates searching in bytes. Release 1 contains precompiled versions for Microsoft Windows (NativeSearch.dll) and Linux (libNativeSearch.so). To use the native library, set the java.library.path accordingly. If the native library is in lib/, invoke your application through java -jar app.jar -Djava.library.path=lib. If the standard StringSearch library is used, the usesNative method may be called to find out if an algorithm uses the native library. This method is not included in StringSearch-mini.
All implementations are thread-safe - one instance can be used by as many threads as required.
The following table summarizes the differences between the two versions.

I designed this website as an assignment for web authoring class at Cal State East Bay. The objective was to get more familiar with javascript and its capabilities. The website story is straight forward and short as my main goal was to focus more on the coding itself than the story. Code languages used in this story are html, css and javascript. You can see my initial collages and sketches that lead into creation of this website on this page.

--- layout: newsstory title: 5 WINS ON THE TROT match: FAC Yeltz 2 Staveley MW 0 ---
And another. After last year's troubles, it's fantastic to be able to report 5 wins on the trot by the once again mighty Yeltz :-)
OK, the opposition hasn't been too strong so far but we can only keep winning. Goals from Leroy May and Kerry Giddings have taken us into the 2nd Qualifying Round, where we'll travel to Moor Green a week on Saturday. That should be an interesting comparison to how much we've improved from last year.
Next Saturday takes us down to Weston-CanUSeeThe-Mare. They've had a reasonable start to the season, but let's hope we can keep this excellent run going.
Halesowen Town: Clarke; Colwell, Burnham, N. Smith, L. Collins, R. Collins (Skidmore 84), Spencer, Jones, May (Giddings 45), Taylor, Hines. Subs: Hall, G. Smith, Garvey
Staveley MW: Hone; Brodie, East, Schofield, Morris, Pell, Thomson, Sharman, Chambers (Bally 63), P. Smith, Bettney. Subs: Cowlishaw, Webb, Wilcockson, Holland
Referee: S. Winton (Willenhall) Attendance: 358 Booked: None
Halesowen avoided slipping up in the potential banana-skin tie against Staveley Miners' Welfare of the Northern Counties East league and made a comfortable passage into the next round against Moor Green. Inevitably it was higher league Halesowen who piled on the pressure, although they could only maintain a slender lead until late on.
Ross Collins and Mark Taylor sent early attempts wide before Leroy May latched onto a long goal kick from Tim Clarke to lob opposing goalkeeper Andy Hone for a 12th minute lead. However, any hope of a goal avalanche were denied by some determined defending from the visitors.
Les Hines had a 16th minute shot from 20 yards blocked and five minutes later Andy Jones flicked just wide from Richard Colwell's cross. Staveley won a 26th minute freekick when Ross Collins gave the ball away in midfield, but the defensive wall held firm.
Andy Jones turned and squirted another shot wide in the 28th minute and Ross Collins had a shot cleared off the line. Paul Sharman then bravely headed away a fierce Taylor shot in a packed Staveley penalty area. Goalkeeper Hone played his part, saving from Andy Jones in the 38th minute and May's overhead kick fell just wide moments before the interval.
The injured May was replaced by Kerry Giddings at half-time but Halesowen went close again in the 51st minute when Hone saved from Jones after Les Hines took a quick freekick.
With just one goal in it, Staveley remained in the hunt and had their best spell midway through the second half. In the 57th minute Dave Thomson supplied Dave Chambers with a great opportunity but his shot rolled agonisingly past Clarke's post.
Halesowen came back strongly towards the end, forcing three successive corners in the 68th minute and causing defender Julian Morris to make two desperate clearances across his own goal before finally wrapping up the tie. Substitute Kerry Giddings, who has developed taste for scoring spectacular goals, bagged another by converting a Les Hines corner with an overhead kick in the 83rd minute. The margin was almost increased in the final minutes, but Welfare's defence did just enough to distract Jones as he raced clear and Hone went on to make another reflex save from a Lee Collins header.

Sempra Energy operates a website at www.sempra.com, through which it provides information on its various services, activities, and projects. The nature of the Company’s services, however, is not conducive with the operation of an online sales channel.
Sempra Energy owns and operates its own network of storage, distribution and transmission infrastructure, through which it provides its natural gas and energy products. The Company deals with its clients directly through an in-house sales force, which is organised across the Company’s separate operating segments and geographic operating regions. Sempra Energy has offices across the US, Mexico, Chile and Peru.
To a lesser extent, Sempra Energy also utilises the distribution and sales services of third-party energy and utility wholesalers and power generation companies.
Customer Relationships
Sempra Energy does not provide any products or services to its customers on a self-service basis. The Company, instead, consults directly with its customers, working closely with clients to agree multi-year sales and distribution agreements. The Company also works closely with a number of organisations, including public bodies, collaborating in the development of energy infrastructure and utility projects across the Americas. Across all of its operating segments Sempra Energy seeks to establish longstanding customer relationships, with a view to securing recurring business.
Sempra Energy provides ongoing support to its clients. The Company provides contact details for its various operating segments and business divisions on its websites, providing personal responses to queries and enquiries from existing and potential customers. Sempra Energy operates several social networking accounts, including with Twitter and LinkedIn, through which it can interact directly with clients and post updates on its corporate developments.
Key Activities
Sempra Energy operates as a holding company. Through its various operating subsidiaries, the Company provides a range of utility and energy infrastructure services to commercial, industrial, public, and residential customers.
The Company’s principal operating units are San Diego Gas and Electric Company, Southern California Gas Company, Sempra International – which includes Sempra South American Utilities and Sempra Mexico segments, and Sempra US Gas and Power – which includes Sempra Renewables and Sempra Natural Gas segments. The Company owns energy and utility distribution infrastructure across the US and Latin America, including a natural gas-fired power plant in Baja California, natural gas distribution systems in Mexicali, underground gas storage facilities and pipelines across multiple US states, and a regasification facility in Hackberry, Louisiana.
Key Partners
Sempra Energy’s multiple operating segments collaborate with a range of companies in the provision of their various products and services. These partners include:
- Supplier Partners, including suppliers of services, resources, tools, and technology that support and supplement the Company’s own suite of services;
- Joint Venture Partners, comprising a rage of energy and utility companies, with which the Company collaborates on joint projects through mutually-owned entities;
- Strategic and Alliance Partners, comprising a range of partners across various sectors with which the Company shares resources and collaborates on joint projects; and
- Channel Partners, comprising a range of energy and utility distributors, wholesalers and power generation companies, that assist in delivering the Company’s products and services to clients. Sempra Energy participates in a solar energy partnership with Consolidated Edison Development, through which it holds a stake in several solar energy facilities. It is also a 50-50 partner alongside Mexico’s state oil company Petroleos Mexicanos in operating a natural gas distribution network that begins at the US border.
Sempra also has a range of community and corporate social responsibility partners. This includes a recent tie-up with Habitat for Humanity, under which the Company’s staff assisted in construction of homes in Mexico.
Key Resources
Sempra Energy’s key resources are its gas and electricity supplies, its production and distribution infrastructure – including pipelines and power generating facilities, its various operating permits and licences, its sales and distribution channels, its information and technology systems, its partnerships, and its personnel.
Sempra Energy owns and leases a number of offices and facilities across the US and Latin America, including office complexes, warehouses, maintenance centres, and service facilities, and own certain equipment that is key to its activities. The Company also owns or part-owns various gas pipeline networks, underground gas storage facilities, power generation plants, regasification facilities, and energy distribution networks that are key to the Company’s ability to provide core energy services.
While Sempra Energy is involved in research and development activities, the Company does not appear to have any patents or intellectual properties that are material to the success of its ongoing activities.
Cost Structure
Sempra Energy incurs costs in relation to the purchase of gas and electricity, the operation and maintenance of its production, storage and transmission infrastructure, the acquisition of relevant permits and licences, the operation of its sales and distribution channels, the maintenance of its information and technology infrastructure, the management of its partnerships, and the retention of its personnel.
In 2015 Sempra Energy accrued total operating and maintenance costs in the amount of $2.90 billion. The Company also accrued substantial utilities expenses, including costs related to the purchase of natural gas totalling $1.34 billion and costs related to the purchase of electric fuel and power totalling $2.14 billion. Sempra Energy also incurs occupancy costs relating to the operation of its network of international offices, and personnel costs comprising the payment of salaries and benefits to its global workforce of more than 17,000 employees.

FluxWallet Wrapped ETC (FWETC) is an ERC20 token minted and destroyed at a 1:1 ratio, representing the ETC held within the FWETC Smart Contract.
Simply put, it gives ETC the powers of an ERC20 token - programmable, multi-functional - but still most importantly, immutable, decentralised and secure.
There's two parts to how FWETC works: Wrapping ETC and Unwrapping FWETC. Let's quickly go through both.
Wrapping ETC- 1. You deposit ETC into the FWETC Smart Contract, via this Dapp interface
- 2. Once transactions are confirmed, you receive FWETC, minted 1:1 with the ETC you deposited
- 3. You use the FWETC however applicable to your requirement
- 4.  You unwrap FWETC tokens via this Dapp interface
- 2. FWETC tokens are destroyed from the Current Supply, at a 1:1 ratio with the ETC you receive from unwrapping the FWETC tokens.
- 3. You have ETC in your wallet, ready for regular use or trading!
FluxWallet Wrapped ETC is made available for use by the general public, via this Dapp interface.
Right now, FWETC is not listed on any exchanges or DEXs - however, You are welcome to wrap and unwrap ETC as you need / see fit.
Saturn Wallet works with Google Chrome and Firefox, and is the best choice for using Ethereum and Ethereum Classic quickly, efficiently and securely on your computer.

PICNIC07: Jonathan Harris of We Feel Fine
First movement: gathered sentiments from weblogs with an automated search, plots them onto a screen as moving dots, and implements clustering behaviour between them.
Second movement: gathered photos from these blog posts and mixes them with the sentiment.
Third movement: feeling breakdown of the overall population (most people feel "better" apparently). Also a gender breakdown (women slightly more prolific than men in blogging).
Fourth movement: plotting weather conditions at time-of-post and use this to implement behaviour of sentiments.
Fifth movement: statistical view.
Sixth movement: visualisation as gelatinous blobs.
Oodles of lovely data, categorised and related.
Passive observation leads to candid findings, because people don't know they're being watched.
New project, Universe: "is there a mythology we hold, as a species, today?" Is there a set of global stories affecting all our lives? Think about a new metaphor for organising information, beyond the web page - based on relationships.
A lot of his projects involve setting up simple rules, and running them over time (e.g. "gather all web pages including the phrase 'I feel'"). In Spring he subjected himself to the same sorts of rules his programmes follow - which led to The Whale Hunt. Jonathan decided to photograph the entire experience of living with an eskimo family hunting a whale at 5 minute intervals - even when sleeping (using a timer to take pictures). When exciting things happened he'd quicken the pace of photography, producing a sequence of images matching the pace of his heartbeat: 3214 pictures over 7 days.
Graphs excitement level over 7 day period, using intervals between photos to gauge excitement.
Also wanted to experiment with a new interface for human storytelling: taking an epic experience, documenting it, and looking for sub-stories. Filters on the photos let him whittle down pics by character, activity and themes.

JavaScript can send network requests to the server and load new information whenever it’s needed.
For example, we can use a network request to:
…And all of that without reloading the page!
There’s an umbrella term “AJAX” (abbreviated Asynchronous JavaScript And XML) for network requests from JavaScript. We don’t have to use XML though: the term comes from old times, that’s why that word is there. You may have heard that term already.
There are multiple ways to send a network request and get information from the server.
The fetch()
method is modern and versatile, so we’ll start with it. It’s not supported by old browsers (can be polyfilled), but very well supported among the modern ones.
The basic syntax is:
url
– the URL to access.options
– optional parameters: method, headers etc.Without options
, this is a simple GET request, downloading the contents of the url
.
The browser starts the request right away and returns a promise that the calling code should use to get the result.
Getting a response is usually a two-stage process.
First, the promise
, returned by fetch
, resolves with an object of the built-in Response class as soon as the server responds with headers.
At this stage we can check HTTP status, to see whether it is successful or not, check headers, but don’t have the body yet.
The promise rejects if the fetch
was unable to make HTTP-request, e.g. network problems, or there’s no such site. Abnormal HTTP-statuses, such as 404 or 500 do not cause an error.
We can see HTTP-status in response properties:
status
– HTTP status code, e.g. 200.ok
– boolean, true
if the HTTP status code is 200-299.For example:
let response = await fetch(url);
if (response.ok) { // if HTTP-status is 200-299
// get the response body (the method explained below)
let json = await response.json();
} else {
alert("HTTP-Error: " + response.status);
}
Second, to get the response body, we need to use an additional method call.
Response
provides multiple promise-based methods to access the body in various formats:
response.text()
– read the response and return as text,response.json()
– parse the response as JSON,response.formData()
– return the response as FormData
object (explained in the next chapter),response.blob()
– return the response as Blob (binary data with type),response.arrayBuffer()
– return the response as ArrayBuffer (low-level representation of binary data),response.body
is a ReadableStream object, it allows you to read the body chunk-by-chunk, we’ll see an example later.For instance, let’s get a JSON-object with latest commits from GitHub:
```js run async let url = ‘https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits’; let response = await fetch(url);
! let commits = await response.json(); // read response body and parse as JSON /!
alert(commits[0].author.login); ```
Or, the same without await
, using pure promises syntax:
js run fetch('https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits') .then(response => response.json()) .then(commits => alert(commits[0].author.login));
To get the response text, await response.text()
instead of .json()
:
```js run async let response = await fetch(‘https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits’);
let text = await response.text(); // read response body as text
alert(text.slice(0, 80) + ‘…’); ```
As a show-case for reading in binary format, let’s fetch and show a logo image of “fetch” specification (see chapter Blob for details about operations on Blob
):
```js async run let response = await fetch(‘/article/fetch/logo-fetch.svg’);
! let blob = await response.blob(); // download as Blob object /!
// create for it let img = document.createElement(‘img’); img.style = ‘position:fixed;top:10px;left:10px;width:100px’; document.body.append(img);
// show it img.src = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
setTimeout(() => { // hide after three seconds img.remove(); URL.revokeObjectURL(img.src); }, 3000); ```
We can choose only one body-reading method.
If we've already got the response with `response.text()`, then `response.json()` won't work, as the body content has already been processed.
```js
let text = await response.text(); // response body consumed
let parsed = await response.json(); // fails (already consumed)
```
The response headers are available in a Map-like headers object in response.headers
.
It’s not exactly a Map, but it has similar methods to get individual headers by name or iterate over them:
```js run async let response = await fetch(‘https://api.github.com/repos/javascript-tutorial/en.javascript.info/commits’);
// get one header alert(response.headers.get(‘Content-Type’)); // application/json; charset=utf-8
// iterate over all headers for (let [key, value] of response.headers) { alert(${key} = ${value}
); } ```
To set a request header in fetch
, we can use the headers
option. It has an object with outgoing headers, like this:
…But there’s a list of forbidden HTTP headers that we can’t set:
Accept-Charset
, Accept-Encoding
Access-Control-Request-Headers
Access-Control-Request-Method
Connection
Content-Length
Cookie
, Cookie2
Date
DNT
Expect
Host
Keep-Alive
Origin
Referer
TE
Trailer
Transfer-Encoding
Upgrade
Via
Proxy-*
Sec-*
These headers ensure proper and safe HTTP, so they are controlled exclusively by the browser.
To make a POST
request, or a request with another method, we need to use fetch
options:
method
– HTTP-method, e.g. POST
,body
– the request body, one of:
FormData
object, to submit the data as form/multipart
,Blob
/BufferSource
to send binary data,x-www-form-urlencoded
encoding, rarely used.The JSON format is used most of the time.
For example, this code submits user
object as JSON:
```js run async let user = { name: ‘John’, surname: ‘Smith’ };
! let response = await fetch(‘/article/fetch/post/user’, { method: ‘POST’, headers: { ‘Content-Type’: ‘application/json;charset=utf-8’ }, body: JSON.stringify(user) }); /!
let result = await response.json(); alert(result.message); ```
Please note, if the request body
is a string, then Content-Type
header is set to text/plain;charset=UTF-8
by default.
But, as we’re going to send JSON, we use headers
option to send application/json
instead, the correct Content-Type
for JSON-encoded data.
We can also submit binary data with fetch
using Blob
or BufferSource
objects.
In this example, there’s a <canvas>
where we can draw by moving a mouse over it. A click on the “submit” button sends the image to the server:
```
Please note, here we don’t set Content-Type
header manually, because a Blob
object has a built-in type (here image/png
, as generated by toBlob
). For Blob
objects that type becomes the value of Content-Type
.
The submit()
function can be rewritten without async/await
like this:
function submit() {
canvasElem.toBlob(function(blob) {
fetch('/article/fetch/post/image', {
method: 'POST',
body: blob
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => alert(JSON.stringify(result, null, 2)))
}, 'image/png');
}
A typical fetch request consists of two await
calls:
let response = await fetch(url, options); // resolves with response headers
let result = await response.json(); // read body as json
Or, without await
:
Response properties: - response.status
– HTTP code of the response, - response.ok
– true
is the status is 200-299. - response.headers
– Map-like object with HTTP headers.
Methods to get response body: - response.text()
– return the response as text, - response.json()
– parse the response as JSON object, - response.formData()
– return the response as FormData
object (form/multipart encoding, see the next chapter), - response.blob()
– return the response as Blob (binary data with type), - response.arrayBuffer()
– return the response as ArrayBuffer (low-level binary data),
Fetch options so far: - method
– HTTP-method, - headers
– an object with request headers (not any header is allowed), - body
– the data to send (request body) as string
, FormData
, BufferSource
, Blob
or UrlSearchParams
object.
In the next chapters we’ll see more options and use cases of fetch
.

SICONOS is the European Project IST2001-37172, funded by the Commission of the European Communities, from September 1, 2002, to August 31, 2006.
It is a project of the Information Society Technologies programme, fifth framework programme (FP5). This project's goal is the study of complementarity dynamical systems (a class of hybrid dynamical systems).
It gathers scientists from various communities : Mechanics, Applied Mathematics, Systems and Control, and Numerical Analysis and from various European countries : United Kingdom, Netherlands, Italy, Switzerland, Spain and France.
The name SICONOS comes from the title of the project : Modeling, Simulation and Control of Non-smooth Dynamical Systems.
For example, a Non Smooth Dynamical System could be a system that incorporates friction and/or impacts for a mechanical one, or switchings for an electrical one.
The strategic aim of this project is the development of novel algorithms and numerical routines for the qualitative analysis, simulation and feedback control of non-smooth complementarity dynamical systems. The output of SICONOS will be an integrated numerical software package for the virtual prototyping of systems with discontinuities and development of novel control techniques for this class of dynamical systems. Therefore, this project is clearly focused on the development over 4 years of a user-friendly, versatile and computationally effective numerical tool for non-smooth systems, validated through its application to 3 key engineering problems : power electronic converters, walking robots and automotive systems.
This project is divided into 7 work-packages :The goal of this project is not redeveloping existing numerical routines, but providing framework for non-smooth problems. Particularly we want to reuse :
Especially, we will use Scilab, numerical libraries (LAPACK, ...) and modules of Lmgc90.
Lmgc90 is an existing platform for modeling interaction problems developed in FORTRAN90 in LMGC. This software is made of a library of components (F90 modules) which can be used through a macro-language named CHIC. For the basic algebra computations, this software relies on public numerical libraries such as LAPACK95, LAPACK and BLAS.
Although this software was designed in an oriented object way, one drawback is that Fortran 90 is not a real object-oriented language (lack of inheritance, template programming, dynamic polymorphism, ... ). Indeed, it could be difficult to add new modules and maintain the code.
The Siconos software is dedicated to the Modeling, Simulation, Analysis and Control of non smooth dynamical systems, i.e., abstract evolution problem where the non smooth character is crucial. To put it more precisely, six major sets of functionalities have been identified :
The development of the software has to take into account the diversity of users. For each types of users, several constraints in terms of development has to be taken into account :
For this type of users, user-friendly and interactive graphical interface are needed. This is the goal of the Front-End which must be integrated in a classical software for scientific computing as Matlab or Scilab.
For this type of users, the software we plan to develop should be modular and easy to extend with additional numerical routines. Particularly for this of users, the Front End must be able to call every methods in the platform (and not just higher-level method) in order to validate promptly the new algorithm inserted.
For this type of users, the architecture must be modular and well documented in order to be maintained and modified easily. To reach this goal, standard methods of Object Oriented Analysis and Design must be used.
In this section we present more precisely the six major functionalities of
the Siconos software. In this section the
relation between the functionalities are explicitly stated. The six major
functionalities of the platform are recalled in the Table and figure
below.
| Name of the module | Functionality |
| Siconos/Numerics | Low level numerical tools |
| Siconos/Kernel | Modelling and numerical simulation |
| Siconos/Frontend | Command interactive user interface |
| Siconos/Analysis | Analysis of solution |
| Siconos/Control | Control design and validation |
| Siconos/Imse | Integrated modeling and Simulation Environment |
This module has to perform several major functionalities of the Siconos software. This module is devoted to
the modeling and the simulation of a physical process in the framework of the
non smooth dynamical systems theory (NSDS).
The functionalities of this module may be stated as follows:
Several NSDS listed above (e.g LCS) may be decomposed in a smooth dynamical system, a set of relations between input/output variables and the state variables and a set of Non Smooth law which are listed below.
This module features the reformulation and the organization of the canonical model provided by the formalization part to realize the simulation. A numerical simulation is composed of :
The Siconos platform works with its own internal data structure, stored in the various attributes of the instantiated objects. This internal data structure will consist of :
Therefore, a specific storage structure must be defined and constitutes the Siconos specific files. This storage structure has to be very close to the object oriented data structure. The use of xml and associated tools (DOM) seems impossible to circumvent.
If the Siconos specific files do not contain the complete representation of the formalized model, it needs to specify how to construct this representation, i.e. the name of the plug-in and the identifier of the data files for this plug-in.
Indeed, there are 3 ways to inform the internal data structure :
There are 2 ways to save the internal data structure :
Furthermore, the structure of the Siconos specific files must be able to represent all the above way to read and to save the data. It means that even for a mixed representation, the location of the external files must be specified in the Siconos specific files.
Using these various mechanisms of reading and saving data, one can translate storage structure from external files to Siconos specific files.
This files must be exhaustive to allow a backup and a restart of a simulation at any specified time.
The Engine must allow the user to trace internal variables during a simulation. These values of the internal variables could be exported in various formats for other post-processing softwares.
This module provides the interface between the user and the platform. This interface have to fulfill several tasks :
This Front-End will be realized by two APIs :


django-textvariation v0.1 documentation
URLs are important. Content should exist at one and only one URL. Each variation in content needs to have a unique URL. Django Text Variation tries to be as flexible as possible by using middleware to check configured patterns as they are requested.
A great resource for my research was this blog post regarding methods for handling multilingual websites. He defines nine ways of accomplishing language variations in content, many of which are not generic enough for use here.
First and foremost, query parameters are not recommended. and will not be supported.
Ultimately, there are three ways specify a unique variation:
You can use any combination of these methods to specify your variation.
The domain difference could be at the host level, such as dim1.example.com or at a different top-level domain such as example.es. Top-level domains are probably only useful for specifying language variations.
Note
You can only vary on one dimension within a domain. That means you can vary on language (en.example.com) or audience (kids.example.com), but not both (en.kids.example.com) within the domain.
A common variation, especially for language specification, is to have the variant prefix the path, such as www.example.com/en/ or www.example.com/es/. However, encoding the variant within the path (www.example.com/blog/en/ ) is also supported.
Note
Putting the variant within the path may make it difficult to re-create variation URLs of items. If the item’s URL is either prefixed or suffixed with dimension information, the variation URL is easily created.
Path parameters are defined by Section 3.3 of RFC 3986 as semicolon (;) and comma (,). One benefit of the semicolon is support within Python’s urlparse module. It is also possible to use a dot (.) delimiter if you wish, although it is less common and not recommended.
Domain variations are defined within each variant’s dictionary. Each variant for each dimension has several options, one of which is domain. If domain is not specified, the default domain is assumed.
The middleware checks if the requested path fits a defined set of regular expressions in TEXT_VARIATIONS['URL_REGEXES']. To make the regular expressions easier to define, there are two shortcuts available.
Assuming two dimensions: ‘language’ and ‘audience’ with variants ‘en’, ‘es’, ‘es-mx’, ‘fr’ and ‘cd’, ‘tn’, ‘ad’ respectively.
| # | RegEx Pattern | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | '{language}/{path};{audience}' | '(?P<language>en|es|es-mx|fr)/(.*);(?P<audience>cd/tn/ad)' |
| 2 | '{path}/{language}/{path};{audience}' | '(.*)/(?P<language>en|es|es-mx|fr)/(.*);(?P<audience>cd/tn/ad)' |
| 3 | '{language}/{path}\.{audience}' | '(?P<language>en|es|es-mx|fr)/(.*)\.(?P<audience>cd/tn/ad)' |
The middleware modifies the request
See TextVariationMiddleware for more detailed information.
