An rxjs-based implementation of a standard duplex socket.
This implementation does not know (or care really) about the transport layer where the data ultimately ends up. Rather, this allows for a compact and efficient way of linking send and receive streams in order to do the heavy lifting for "round-trip" protocols.
npm install --save @obsidize/rx-socket
npm install --save git+https://github.com/jospete/obsidize-rx-socket.git
The below example uses a socket instance for both the client and the server.
However, when using this in your app you should only use this module as either the client or the server, but not both (unless you like talking to yourself).
import { RxJsonSocket } from '@obsidize/rx-socket';
import { delay, first, tap } from 'rxjs/operators';
const sendMessage = { message: 'hello' };
const receiveMessage = { message: 'world!' };
const client = new RxJsonSocket();
const server = new RxJsonSocket();
client.setBufferReceiveSource(server.bufferStream.onSend.pipe(
delay(10),
));
server.setBufferReceiveSource(client.bufferStream.onSend.pipe(
delay(10),
tap(() => server.emit(receiveMessage))
));
client.textStream.onSend.subscribe(v => console.log('client textStream.onSend: ' + v));
client.textStream.onReceive.subscribe(v => console.log('client textStream.onReceive: ' + v));
server.textStream.onSend.subscribe(v => console.log('server textStream.onSend: ' + v));
server.textStream.onReceive.subscribe(v => console.log('server textStream.onReceive: ' + v));
// The client and server sockets are "glued together" in such a way that we can
// send a message and wait for a response all in one go - much like an HTTP or websocket request.
const serverResponse = await client.send(sendMessage)
.pipe(first())
.toPromise();
console.log(serverResponse); // { message: 'world!' }
See the General Usage and RxSocketSubject test suites to get a feel for how to use this module.

I enjoy all of these things listed above but above two of them I love to talk to my friends and hang out with them I get to be able to tell my friends about everything and we also do a lot together so it turns out to be a great time. Being around people and being able to talk to them is one of the hobbies I value the most. I value being able to talk to people to learn and experience new things. I wish to be able to take my intrest in computers and computer programming farther than just an intrest and into a career. I enjoy listening to music. I listen to almost anything except for country and operas. One of the things that I value the most is perfection and the idea that I can make things better and improve constantly.

For the last couple of weeks, I’ve been having what I call end of summer blues; you know, when you know that school is very close, and theres is still a part of the summer, but you don’t know what to do with it. The symptoms include oversleeping, lack of interest in topics that previously made me go gaga, and never knowing what to do, might it be on or off the computer. Hell, even a game which is supposed to be addictive like World of Warcraft now seems boring. I just had to create some work for myself, something to distract myself until the school year starts, where I would dive very deep into my CCNA course which promises to be very interesting. Of course, I do have on very exciting hardware project underway, Fr0stByte, but since I ordered everything on ebay, I have to wait at least 14 days for paypal and UPS to do it’s magic, and that’s 14 days of boredom. So what if I worked with what I already have… Stares at sister’s PC… excellent…

Pair programming is the practice of two people collaborating on the same coding challenge. One these challenges, a person is designated navigator and the other the driver.
In pair programming, the driver typically is the person at the keyboard. They take instruction from and implement the ideas of the navigator.
During this Guided Pairing Session, I was the only one signed up for the session and got to work with Neal Peters exlusively. While not pairing a peer this time, I appreciated working with Neal one-on-one and working through the challenge. He was also gracious enough to coach me through some CSS issues and discuss his own DBC experience. He was incredibly helpful.

The + operator is an infix operator, so it will have a led method that makes the token object into a tree, where the two branches are the operand to the left of the + and the operand to the right. The left operand is passed into the led, and the right is obtained by calling the expression method.
The number 60 is the binding power of +. Operators that bind tighter or have higher precedence have greater binding powers. In the course of mutating the stream of tokens into a parse tree, we will use the operator tokens as containers of operand nodes:
symbol("+", 60).led = function (left) { this.first = left; this.second = expression(60); this.arity = "binary"; return this; };
When we define the symbol for [], we see that only the id and binding powers are different. It has a higher binding power because it binds more tightly:
[] Pratt's paper is available at http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=512931; more information about Pratt himself can be found at http://boole.stanford.edu/pratt.html.
symbol("*", 70).led = function (left) { this.first = left; this.second = expression(70); this.arity = "binary"; return this; };
Not all infix operators will be this similar, but many will, so we can make our work easier by defining an infix function that will help us specify infix operators. The infix function will take an id and a binding power, and optionally a led function. If a led function is not provided, it will supply a default led that is useful in most cases:
var infix = function (id, bp, led) { var s = symbol(id, bp); s.led = led || function (left) { this.first = left; this.second = expression(bp); this.arity = "binary"; return this; }; return s; }
This allows a more declarative style for specifying operators:
infix("+", 60); infix("-", 60); infix("*", 70); infix("/", 70);
The string === is JavaScript's exact-equality comparison operator:
infix("===", 50); infix("!==", 50); infix("<", 50); infix("<=", 50); infix(">", 50); infix(">=", 50);
The ternary operator takes three expressions, separated by ? and :. It is not an ordinary infix operator, so we need to supply its led function:
infix("?", 20, function (left) { this.first = left; this.second = expression(0); advance(":"); this.third = expression(0); this.arity = "ternary"; return this; });
The . operator is used to select a member of an object. The token on the right must be a name, but it will be used as a literal:
infix(".", 90, function (left) { this.first = left; if (token.arity !== "name") { token.error("Expected a property name."); } token.arity = "literal"; this.second = token; this.arity = "binary"; advance( ); return this; });
The [ operator is used to dynamically select a member from an object or array. The expression on the right must be followed by a closing ]:
infix("[", 90, function (left) { this.first = left; this.second = expression(0); this.arity = "binary"; advance("]"); return this; });
Those infix operators are left associative. We can also make right associative operators, such as short-circuiting logical operators, by reducing the right binding power:
var infixr = function (id, bp, led) { var s = symbol(id, bp); s.led = led || function (left) { this.first = left; this.second = expression(bp - 1); this.arity = "binary"; return this; }; return s; }
The && operator returns the first operand if the first operand is falsy. Otherwise, it returns the second operand. The || operator returns the first operand if the first operand is truthy; otherwise, it returns the second operand:
infixr("&&", 40); infixr("||", 40);

The Akan people of Ghana frequently name their children after the day of the week they were born and the order in which they were born. These "day names" have further meanings concerning the soul and character of the person. Middle names have considerably more variety and can refer to their birth order, twin status, or an ancestor's middle name.

JUDGE DREDD A film review by Michael John Legeros Copyright 1995 Michael John Legeros
Directed by Danny Cannon Written by William Wisher and Steven E. De Souza, from a story by Michael De Luca and William Wisher Cast Sylvester Stallone, Armande Assante, Diane Lane, Rob Schneider, Jurgen Prochnow, Joan Chen, Max von Sydow MPAA Rating "R" (presumably for violence and profanity) Running Time 96 minutes Reviewed at Wynnsong 10, Durham (30JUN95)
==
Despite handsome casting and sharp production values, last month's second comic-book-to-film is a failure from the get-go. The tone problems start in the very first scenes, after James Earl Jones' somber narration introduces the judicial system of the future, where "judges" roam the streets of Mega-City One, acting as judge, jury, and executioner. The toughest judge is Judge Dredd (Sylvester Stallone), who's emotionless commitment to "da law" strikes fear in the hearts of evil men.
Boasting a great set-up, JUDGE DREDD sounds tougher than it really is. The screenplay--by William Wisher and Steven E. De Souza--tries to cover too many bases at once, as if someone at Disney decided that a Facist character in a graphic comic book could have some sort of mass audience appeal. So they "humanize" the movie by giving Dredd a hollow sense of humor, a female Judge/love-interest/sparring-partner (Diane Lane), and even a comic sidekick (Rob Schnieder, who obviously didn't learn *his* lesson after appearing alongside Stallone in DEMOLITION MAN).
Actually, *that* film is much more enjoyable than the wasted work here.  Sci-fi hillibillies; malfunctioning motorcycles; and, yes, even a cat-fight (between Lane and Joan Chen). Sigh. The whole thing is actually not awful until the last twenty minutes, when Stone and Armande Assante (who plays the villain) are standing and shouting in each other's faces, their respectively flawed diction trying to work their mouths in the direction of north by northwest.
BOTTOM LINE: Dreadful.
Grade: D+

Maharashtra: A Govt Formed At Night, Will Cease To Be At Night, Says NCP's Jayant Patil
by Prachi MankaniPolitics
Nationalist Congress Party leader Jayant Patil on Monday said that the government which was formed at night will cease to be at night as well.
Written By Prachi Mankani | Mumbai | Updated On: November 25, 2019 07:54 IST
Taking a jibe at the newly formed BJP-NCP alliance in Maharashtra, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Jayant Patil on Monday said that the government which was formed at night will cease to be at night as well. Pulling the biggest surprise in Maharashtra politics, Devendra Fadnavis took oath as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra in the presence of Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari at Raj Bhawan on Saturday, while NCP's Ajit Pawar was sworn-in as his deputy.
"A government that was formed at night, will cease to be at night. Only the Chief Minister (Devendra Fadnavis) and Deputy Chief Minister (Ajit Pawar) are there in the government, so they are meeting each other. They will divide all the portfolios among themselves," Patil said.
Several leaders, including Jayant Patil and Chhagan Bhujbal from NCP and Shiv Sena's Eknath Shinde, visited the NCP MLAs who are staying at Hyatt hotel here. This comes as MLAs of Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress are staying at different hotels in the city in a bid to prevent horsetrading by the BJP.
Furthermore, Eknath Shinde, who was earlier speculated to be the CM candidate asserted that Sena-NCP will form a strong government as the respective party chiefs have already spoken to the MLAs.
"We will form a strong and stable government in the state. NCP chief Sharad Pawar and Shiv Sena's Uddhav Thackerey have spoken to the MLAs. They told them that Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress have the majority and will soon form a government which will work for the welfare of the people," Shinde said.

SC hearing on the matter
Following a crucial hearing on the legality of Maharashtra Government formation on Sunday, the Supreme court has directed Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for Centre, to produce the following letters at 10.30 am tomorrow-
- Governor's order on November 23, inviting Devendra Fadnavis to form a government
- The letter of Devendra Fadnavis to the Governor claiming a majority
A three-judge SC bench heard the petition of the Shiv Sena-Congress-NCP on Sunday at 11.30 AM, challenging Maharashtra Governor’s decision to invite Devendra Fadnavis for government formation. The Justice Ramana-led SC bench further said that it will pass appropriate orders on Monday morning following the submission of the letters sought by the court. Plea for an immediate floor test will be considered after considering the order of the Governor. Towards this, notice was issued to the Centre, Maharashtra govt, CM Fadnavis and Deputy CM Ajit Pawar.

This is the reference library for the Spinn3r client API.
This code was designed to be extremely portable to other langauges which should facilitate bindings in Java, Python, Lisp, Perl, Ruby, etc.
This implementation also correctly handles all features of the API including all fields at the time it was shipped, throttling when no more results were found, pagination, gzip encoding, etc.
The reference API was designed to function without any external dependencies. It uses the internal java.net.URL for HTTP transport and JAXP and DOM for parsing the XML results.
Right now this library requires JDK 1.5. It should be easy to back port it to JDK 1.4 which we might do if we see a client request.


P2-E005¶
This exercise will not be related to statistics. Instread, you get the chance to write your very own, simple “climate model” that calculates the temporal evolution of the mean temperature of Earth for different simplified, idealised Earths.
Background¶
Preparation for this exercise will only require the close study of the contents of previous lectures. Make sure you are familiar with the concepts of black body radiation, radiative fluxes, Stefan Boltzman Law, heat capacity and dynamic equilibrium.
The essential topics are covered in the Building a Climate III.

What to Submit
Use the skeleton script below (or create your own in your preferred language) and add your lines of code where prompted. Submit the same script with your own code. The script should be named [your surname]_e105.[ext], where [ext] is the file extension. In case of Python, this would be .py, for Matlab it is .m, etc. Furthermore, submit the figure(s) of temperature evolution your script calculates.
Creating a Simple Climate Model¶
Study the script below. Certain parameters are already defined for you. Follow the instructions of the script carefully and add your own code where asked. The final script will be able to calculate the temporal evolution of mean global temperatures on different simplified and idealised versions of Earth until an equilibrium is reached.

Note: Heat capacity is given in J/(K*m^2) to simplify calculations.
The specific heat capacity of air (Cp) is ~1000 J/(kg*K) or, given the density
of air (ro) of 1 kg/m^3, the volumetric heat capacity Cv of ~1000 J/(K*m^3).
[ Cv=Cp*ro=1000 J/(K*m^3) ].
In ro*Cp*dT/dt=dQ/dx, Q is heat flow in W/m^2 or J/(s*m^2), which is given by
f_net. To get dT, we need to divide heat flow by a unit of length. In this exercise,
volumetric heat capacity (c=ro*cp) is already multiplied by 10000 (m), i.e. the
average thickness of the troposphere, and therefore skip the division of the heat
flow by length.

Make sure to include albedo and transmissivity in your calculations.
HINT: To calculate temperature change for a specific time step based on net incoming radiation,
remember dT (change in temperature) = dQ (change in heat/energy) / C (heat capacity), incoming
radiation is measured in W/m^2 (J/(s*m^2)) and heat capacity is given in J/(K*m^2) here.

The probability density function used in making the phase-space sampling can be any reasonable function, which can be chosen to obtain desired resolution of the phase-space. The most intuitive way of sampling the phase-space is to sample it using the uniform probability density function, i.e., p(Z) = 1∕V , where V is the total volume of the phase space. Another frequently used sampling scheme is to load particle markers according to the initial total distribution function of the physical particles. In this case P(Z) = ftot(Z)∕Ns, where Ns is the total number of physical particles, i.e., ∫ V ftot(Z)dΓ = Ns. (The method of generating random markers that satisﬁes a given probability density function is discussed in Sec. 7.)

They truly do exist but not everyone knows or understand why people must inter breed with a skin color or ethnicity different from themselves
We are Human, We are valid, We don't need to prove ourselves to be a part of your race
We aren't your fetishes
You stare at me in disgrace
While looking at my mother's brown face
I feel somewhat displaced
Maybe I'm not a part of this race?
Where do I belong in this database in the desktop of life
How can I identify myself if I'm , “ Basically white”?
To be exact I'm Puerto Rican, Jamaican, Irish, Scottish, Cuban, Italian, Taino Indian,and Black
How do I proudly represent myself when my own race is not represented in a questionnaire
Sometimes I wonder why the worlds so unfair
Does my fair skin determine the race that I bare?
Colors are so complicated you never know what they represent
If you misinterpret someone's identity you may just leave a dent.

Undercomplete representation forces the autoencoder to capture the most salient features of the training data.
The learning process tries to minimize a loss function \( L({\bf{x}},g(f({\bf{x}})))\) where \(L\) is a loss function penalizing \(g(f({\bf{x}}))\) from being dissimilar from \({\bf{x}}\).
One example of the loss functions used is the mean squared error.
The capacity of the encoding and decoding functions, whether linear or nonlinear will influence the quality of the reconstruction.
Sparse autoencoder (SAE): An autoencoder whose training criterion involves a sparsity penalty.
Denoising autoencoder (DAE):Noise is added to the input \( {\bf{x}} \) to create a noisy or corrupted version \( \tilde{{\bf{x}}} \). The goal of the denoising autoencoder is to learn to recover \( {\bf{x}} \) from \( \tilde{{\bf{x}}} \).
Contrastive autoencoder (CAE): An explicit regularizer is introduced to encourage the derivatives of the encoding function \(f({\bf{x}})\) to be as small as possible.
Characteristics
Try to adjust the capacity of the encoder and decoder based on the complexity of the data to be modeled .
Use a loss function that encourages the model to have other properties (e.g., sparsity) besides the ability to copy its input to its output.
A regularized autoencoder can be nonlinear and overcomplete but still learn something useful about the data distribution.
In principle, the goal of the denoising autoencoder is to reconstruct an input that has been corrupted by some sort of noise.
Othe previous works have proposed to use multi-layer perceptrons for denoising data.
However, the denoising autoencoder is intended not merely to learn to denoise its input but to learn a good internal representation as a side eﬀect of learning to denoise.
Sample a training example \( {\bf{x}} \) from the training data.
Sample a corrupted version \( {\bf{\tilde{x}}} \) from \( C({\bf{\tilde{x}}}|x= {\bf{x}}) \), where \(C() \) represents a given corruption process.
Use \(({\bf{x}},{\bf{\tilde{x}}}) \) as a training example for estimating the autoencoder distribution \( p_{reconstruct}({\bf{x}}|{\bf{\tilde{x}}}) = p_{decoder}({\bf{x}}|x= {\bf{h}}) \) with \( {\bf{h}} \) the output of encoder \( f({\bf{\tilde{x}}}) \) and \(p_{decoder}\) typically defined by a decoder \( g({\bf{h}}) \).
As in sparse autoencoders a regularization penalty is used:
\[
\begin{equation}
L({\bf{x}},g(f({\bf{x}}))) + \Omega({\bf{h}},{\bf{x}})
\end{equation}
\]
But with a different choice of \(\Omega\):
\begin{equation}
\Omega({\bf{h}},{\bf{x}}) = \lambda \sum_{i} ||\nabla_{{\bf{x}}} h_i||^2
\end{equation}
Characteristics
The model is forced to learn a function that does not change much when \({\bf{x}}\) changes slightly.
It has theoretical connections to denoising autoencoders.
The CAE is contractive only locally, i.e., all perturations of a training point \({\bf{x}}\) are mapped near to \(f({\bf{x}}) \).
Generative Modeling with DNNs
Network generated faces
Generative modeling
Generative modeling deals with models of distributions \( p({\bf{x}}) \), defined over datapoints \({\bf{x}} \) in some high-dimensional space \( \mathcal{x}\).
Since, learning the exact distribution is usually impossible, the goal is then to learn an approximate distribution as accurate as posssible accodirng some metric.
For an image, the \( {\bf{x}} \) values which look like real images should be given a high probability, whereas images that look like random noise should get low probability.
Instead of computing the probabilities, usually the goal is to produce more examples that are like those already in a database, but not exactly the same.
More formally, let us suppose we have a dataset of examples \( {\bf{x}} \) distributed according to some unknown distribution \( p_{gt}({\bf{x}}) \).
The goal is to learn a model \( p({\bf{x}}) \) which we can sample from, such that \( p({\bf{x}}) \) is as similar as possible to \( p_{gt}({\bf{x}}) \).
Training this type of model has been a long-standing problem in the machine learning community.
Generative adversarial nets are trained by simultaneously updating the discriminative distribution (D, blue, dashed line) so that it discriminates between samples from the data generating distribution (black, dotted line) \( p_{\bf{x}} \) from those of the generative distribution \( p_g(G) \).
One of the goals is to learn the generator's distribution \( p_g \) over data \( {\bf{x}}\).
To do this a prior on input noise variables \(p_z ({\bf{z}})\) is defined
A mapping to data space \({\bf{\tilde{x}}} = G({\bf{z}}, \theta_g)\) is also defined where \( G \) is a differentiable function represented by a multilayer perceptron with parameters \( \theta_g \).
One of the goals is to learn the generator's distribution \( p_g \) over data \( {\bf{x}}\).
To do this a prior on input noise variables \(p_z ({\bf{z}})\) is defined
A mapping to data space \({\bf{\tilde{x}}} = G({\bf{z}}, \theta_g)\) is also defined where \( G \) is a differentiable function represented by a multilayer perceptron with parameters \( \theta_g \).
A second multi-layer perceptron \(D({\bf{x}}, \theta_d)\) is also defined.
\(D({\bf{x}}, \theta_d)\) outputs a scalar and represents the probability that \( {\bf{x}} \) from the data rather than \( p_g \) .
\(D \) and \(G \) play the following two-player minimax game with value function \(V(D,G) \):
As traditional autoencoders they can be split into two components: an encoder and a decoder.
They are probabilistic autoencoders since their outputs are partly determined by chance (as oppossed to DAEs which use randomness only during training).
They can generate new instances that look like they were sampled from the training set (generative autoencoders).
Similar to RBMs, but they are easier to train and the sampling process is much faster.
Learning a distribution of images that belong to the same class can be difficult.
In the example above, the second image (b) is a corrupted version of the first image (a). The third image (c) is identical but it has been shifted two pixels.
Thinking of a way to detect this type of similarity given a wide range of transformations is difficult.
In some highly complex input domains (e.g., image analysis), assuming a latent representation can help to model the problem.
Latent space: We assume that the distribution over the observed variables \({\bf{z}} \;\) is the consequence of a distribution over some set of hidden variables \({\bf{z}} \sim p({\bf{z}}) \).
Inference is the process of disentangling these rich real-world dependencies into simplified latent dependencies, by predicting \(p({\bf{z}}|{\bf{x}})\).
In the decoder phase, a sampled \( {\bf{z}} \) is passed to the decoder/generative network.
The decoder uses the learned conditional distribution over input space to reconstruct an input according to \(\tilde{\bf{x}} \sim p_{\theta}({\bf{x}}|{\bf{z}})\).
The actual coding is sampled from the Gaussian distribution with the learned parameters.
The key idea behind the variational autoencoder is to attempt to sample values of \({\bf{z}}\) that are likely to have produced \({\bf{x}}\), and compute \( p({\bf{x}})\) just from those.
The encoder maps observed inputs to (approximate) posterior distributions over latent space.
The decoder works as a generative network. It maps arbitrary latent coordinates back to distributions over the original data space. .
The latent variable model can be seen as a probability distribution \(p(x|z)\) describing the generative process (of how \( x \) is generated from \(z\) ).
In machine learning, a manifold can serve to capture in a low dimensional space characteristics of the data in the high dimensional space.
In contrast to PCA and other methods, the manifold learning can provide more powerful non-linear dimensionality reduction by preserving the local structure of the input data.
The usability of manifolds can be measured in terms of their ability to capture variability accross the data and in terms of their generative capability.
Manifold learning has mostly focused on unsupervised learning procedures that attempt to capture these manifolds.

View: Le Violon rouge Die Rote Geige Il Violino rosso The Red Violin (1998)
The Red Violin is the story of a journey across centuries and continents, with the intrument as traveller, and as the catalyst of the human lives it strings together. As a movie, it is uneven but entirely worthwhile. I did not enjoy the segments set in Vienna and Oxford much: they didn't appeal to me. However, the ones set in China, Italy and Canada did sustain my interest. Here, production values and direction are enough, in my opinion, to allow the audience to turn a shortsighted critical eye over this movie's faults. Bravo to Niv Fichman and François Girard.
While the violin itself is unarguably the movie's central character, the matter of protagonists is manifold. Samuel L. Jackson gets top billing, and I estimate that he also gets the most screen time, but he is a great actor and he fills his segment with a sense of purpose that perfectly espouses the narrative. The other protagonists in each segment act in reaction to circumstances and emotional shocks, the actors' performances are strong, but the movie's momentum lulls; the violin has no will of its own, despite its mystique. If it had, the film would have achieved its desired epic scope. The Red Violin is beautiful, certain to pluck heartstrings, and moving; but it's also a cripple. Listen to the music: that's as far as it will go.
It's a cathartic but unchallenging drama. See it. Listen carefully.
__THE RED VIOLIN directed by François Girard stars Samuel L. Jackson and was co-written by Don McKellar and François Girard, who have often expressed their eternal gratitude toward their translators__

United Kingdom Postcodes
United Kingdom postcodes are five, six, or seven characters and digits defined by the Royal Mail. Postcodes are made up of two parts: the outward postcode (or outcode) and the inward postcode (or incode). The outcode is one or two alphabetic characters followed by one or two digits, or one or two characters followed by a digit and a character. The incode is always a single digit followed by two characters (any characters excluding C, I, K, M, O, and V, which are never used in postcodes). The incode and outcode are separated by a space.
171 Kyverdale Road, London N16 6PS
33 Main Street, Portsmouth, P01 3AX
18 High Street, London NW11 8AB
[A-Z]{1,2}\d[A-Z\d]? \d[ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2}
171 Kyverdale Road, London N16 6PS
33 Main Street, Portsmouth, P01 3AX
18 High Street, London NW11 8AB
The incode first matches one or two alphabetic characters followed by a digit using [A-Z]{1,2}\d. [A-Z\d]? matches an additional alphanumeric character if it exists. As such, [A-Z]{1,2}\d[A-Z\d]? matches every possible valid incode combination. To match the outcode, the pattern \d[ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2} is used; this matches a single digit followed by two of the allowed alphabetic characters (A, B, D through H, J, L, N, P through U, and W through Z).
Note | This regular expression is one that should not be case sensitive. |

My name is Mohammed; it is a popular name - it means the grateful person.
Originally, I am from the old city of Damascus - Syria. This city is mentioned in the Holy Bible due to its historical weight. It is the first capital the world has ever known.
Prophecies say that when Jesus descends back to earth, the East Minaret of Damascus will be his first destination.
Before the war, Syrians were known of being very good at trading. We just love trading. We love to buy and sell, it just runs in the traditions of being from Damascus. Since I was a little boy, I had a totally different passion from trading merchandises and properties. This passion walked into my veins when I first sat behind a computer screen.
In 1995, I was 13 years old. I used to work as a typewriter at a business center that uses computers to process documents. I used to typewrite attorneys narratives and statements using MS. Word 95 on a Windows 3.1x Operating System. When the system crashes, I was so glad to use to MS-DOS 6.22 Installer Floppy Images and Windows 3.1 Installer Floppy Images to restore Windows. It was charming to my little eyes that used to follow the blue loading bricks. I used to spend hours playing Minesweeper, FreeCell and Solitaire.
In 2000, I attended my first bootcamp to study Oracle 8i DBA and Developer courses. It was a cutting-edge technology at the time. The course was taught by a German Computer Engineer. To attend the course, I had to borrow a fortune of $1000. By the time, I was working as an Assistant DBA at an international private school in Damascus.
On 2005, I travelled to Switzerland to work at the International Telecommunication Union. It is a United Nations specialized agency. On 2007, I moved to the United States to work at the United Nations headquarters in New York.
I worked several jobs at the United Nations: a Desktop and Publishing Assistant for the Arabic Unit; an Application Developer; an Information Systems assistant; and currently, I am working as a Web Developer. During my 10 years tenure at the UN, my passion did not fade or subside. After I finished my BA in English Literature, I studied a Master's in Computer Information Systems. My major was in Database Administration and Business Intillegence.
On 2016, I joined the United States armed forces. When I say that I love America, it is an understatment. At the Army, I have been trained to competency at my job. The military has sharpened my rough edges, it made me a better person. It taught me many, many lessons at life. They were very tough, harsh and expensive lessons that either made me smarter or made me stronger.
On a personal level, I am a spontaneous person. I always hold very good intentions to all people. I might say or do things that people might or might not like but this is who I am. My hobbies? I love scuba diving, shooting, swimming, running, I love coding and making things look or function better, I love milling and I love assembling electronic circuts. Yes, I might look like a boring person but I always add fun to my some-what rigid activites. My wife tells me that I resemble the tiger's character and that's why I put the tiger photo instead of mine.

MICHAEL A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1996 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): * 1/2
An angel as an oversexed slob. Is the world ready for this? Acclaimed director of WHEN HARRY MET SALLY and SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE, Nora Ephron believes so. Her new film MICHAEL features John Travolta as an angel like you've never seen before.
Quirkiness is not funny in itself, providing only one of the ingredients from which comedies can be created. Ephron gives holiday audiences a film that is dead on arrival.  Most of the laughter you will hear in the theater comes from Travolta who thoroughly enjoys being an archangel. He and the dog Sparky give the only compelling performances in the film.
The setup for the story is that Vartan Malt (Bob Hoskins), the editor of a Chicago tabloid called the National Mirror, is on the lookout for bizarre articles. A letter from the Milk Bottle Motel in Iowa is sent to his chief investigative reporter, Frank Quinlan (William Hurt). The motel's owner, Pansy Milbank (Jean Stapleton), claims to have an angel staying there.
Frank takes his partner, Huey Driscoll (Robert Pastorelli), and a reputed angel expert, Dorothy Winters (Andie MacDowell), to Iowa to find the angel and bring him back alive. Accompanying them is Malt's dog Sparky, who has his own column in the National Mirror.
When Michael finally makes his much anticipated appearance to our three crack reporters, he is looking for his smokes and a bottle of beer. He has a two day stubble, a beer belly, dingy wings, and a hangover. Michael addresses Dorothy's confusion at his appearance by explaining, "Halos? Inner light? I'm not that sort of angel." In his room, Frank reflects to Dorothy, "It is definitely the weirdest thing I've ever seen. It like some big bird made love to his mother."
Michael agrees to go back with them to Chicago on condition that they drive so he can visit eccentric places along the way, including the world's largest ball of twine and the biggest non-stick frying pan.
 He picks up whole groups of women as he goes. He justifies it with, "Remember what John and Paul said?" Frank quizzically replies, "The Apostles?" "No, the Beatles," corrects Michael. "All you need is love."  (Go ahead, before you get to the end of the review, guess what its MPAA rating is.)
In the press kit, MacDowell says about fellow actor Travolta, "John takes such wonderful chances with his character. It is very endearing the way he has this childlike quality to him." I agree, but he needed a better script that this one by the screenwriting committee of Nora Ephron, Delia Ephron, Peter Dexter, and Jim Quinlan. The visuals are shockingly cute, but the story has little energy. Hurt, MacDowell, and Pastorelli are given poorly written characters and do little with them. Hoskins overacts his meager part.
The pacing of the show is way off. Be prepared to nod off at the many slow places. Regretfully, I stayed awake. The ending of the movie is a trick. Just as in horror movies, when you think it is finally over, it isn't. After the natural conclusion point, there is another ten minutes of uninteresting "resolution." I did not care about any of the characters, so I certainly was not wild about sitting through ten more minutes while they worked out their troubles.
MICHAEL runs 1:40, but feels much longer.  Much of this could prove confusing and frightening to some kids. My son, Jeffrey, 7 1/2, says it is an okay movie, but he wouldn't recommend it to his friends. He liked the "battle" parts, but didn't like all the kissing scenes. He gave it a thumb almost up and said it was for kids four and up. I would say six and up, but I am not sure if anyone will like the show very much. I don't recommend it, and I give it only * 1/2.
**** = One of the top few films of this or any year. A must see film. *** = Excellent show. Look for it. ** = Average movie. Kind of enjoyable. * = Poor show.  Totally unbearable.

A mini bar is a very narrow bar that is typically associated with the feather or plume pieces.
Does this piece contain a mini bar?


I'm a Computer Science Graduate student at University at Buffalo. I am passionate about the field of Distributed Systems and Artificial Intelligence and its application in Natural Language Processing and Computer Vision. Prior to this I have three years of experience in software development using core java,j2ee frameworks, python, big data technologies in hadoop, spark, hive, impala and web technologies in ext js and angular js. As a Senior technology associate at Sapient, I was responsible for leading the development for three major products for our client Morgan Stanley which contributed to growth of the entire risk infrastructure at the firm. The big data platform ingested terabytes of risk data files every day into hdfs. Data loading timings improved massively loading 400 million rows under 4 minutes. The data aggregation framework final build was able to provide 30% more throughput consuming 50% less memory
• Developed the data ingestion framework with a very performant / scalable code running on top of Big Data platforms (Spark/Hive/Impala/Hadoop) that ingests terabytes of files every day into hdfs. Data loading timings improved massively loading 400 million rows under 4 minutes. Impala query timings was also 2.9x faster than Greenplum for analytical queries.
• Revamped legacy data aggregation framework used in Risk Tech in order to make it scalable, maintainable and improve overall throughput. Apart from rewriting the entire code, performed analysis of GC logs to tweak JVM Args, leveraging JProfiler/VisualVM to identify hotspots in code.

The summer of 2004 I had received a few doses of 5-MEO-AMT. I had played around with a few research chemicals before, but this was my first experience with this. My dose was no more then 10mg, but the actual dose is not 100% remembered. Anyways, soon after ingesting the 5-MEO-AMT, I had an experience of tripping that was highly visual and highly physical - not very emotional at all. While lying on my bed for a few minutes after the trip had started (~45 minutes), my heart rate began to sky rocket - I tried to calm myself down, but my heart kept beating faster and faster - I got up, went to the bathroom and it looked as if I had taken a shower with my clothes on since I had been sweating so much. My heart still felt like it was going to beat out of my chest - I mistakenly did all of this without a sober sitter - so I decided to find someone to take me to the hospital - all while tripping.
After getting to the hospital, I entered triage, and my heart rate and blood pressure were so high I was quickly moved by most of the people waiting in the hospital. Once my heart was somewhat stabilized, the questions came...what had I done, how long, how much, etc...Out of fear, I denied the use of drugs, knowing that 5-MEO-AMT would in all likelihood not be tested for in a drug test - I was correct. It was diagnosed that I had a panic attack, with abnormal nervous system responses - i.e., extreme dilating of pupils, disassociation, etc. This was one of the most scariest experiences of my life - I had spent the night in the hospital tripping - being jabbed with needles, harshly interrogated, handled in a manner that was not very gentle (understandably so, the doctors didn't want to deal with some ODing kid when other people with other problems were there), and ultimately was forced to concoct a very fishy story to get out of trouble.
I have tripped many a times on many different drugs...I've had bad trips, I've had good trips...I have never seriously thought I was going to die except for this one time - and being that I was bordering on having a heart attack - I was close to some very dire health consequences. I would highly recommend to anyone planning on doing this drug to reconsider and maybe try a slightly safer hallucinogen...acid, mushrooms maybe...cause I can assure you, a hospital is not a conducive environment to tripping, especially when you fear for your life.
