86 bil total
16 bil in cortex - largest of anything (proportionally)
15 tril synapses
1 glial cell : 1 neuron
cooking allowed us to meet the energy requirements for this
7.2.3. whole brain#
Cerebrum - The cerebrum is the largest portion of the brain, and contains tools which are responsible for most of the brain’s function. It is divided into four sections:
the temporal lobe
the occipital lobe
parietal lobe
frontal lobe.
The cerebrum is divided into a right and left hemisphere which are connected by axons that relay messages from one to the other. This matter is made of nerve cells which carry signals between the organ and the nerve cells which run through the body.
Frontal Lobe - This lobe controls a several elements including creative thought, problem solving, intellect, judgment, behavior, attention, abstract thinking, physical reactions, muscle movements, coordinated movements, smell and personality.
Parietal Lobe - this lobe focuses on comprehension. Visual functions, language, reading, internal stimuli, tactile sensation and sensory comprehension will be monitored here.
Sensory Cortex - The sensory cortex, located in the front portion of the parietal lobe, receives information relayed from the spinal cord regarding the position of various body parts and how they are moving. This middle area of the brain can also be used to relay information from the sense of touch, including pain or pressure which is affecting different portions of the body.
Motor Cortex - This helps the brain monitor and control movement throughout the body. It is located in the top, middle portion of the brain.
Temporal Lobe: The temporal lobe controls visual and auditory memories. It includes areas that help manage some speech and hearing capabilities, behavioral elements, and language. It is located in the cerebral hemisphere.
Wernicke’s Area- This portion of the temporal lobe is formed around the auditory cortex. While scientists have a limited understanding of the function of this area, it is known that it helps the body formulate or understand speech.
Occipital Lobe: The optical lobe is located in the cerebral hemisphere in the back of the head. It helps to control vision.
 It is located in the triangular and opercular section of the inferior frontal gyrus.
Cerebellum
This is commonly referred to as “the little brain,” and is considered to be older than the cerebrum on the evolutionary scale. The cerebellum controls essential body functions such as balance, posture and coordination, allowing humans to move properly and maintain their structure.
60% of neurons
<IP_ADDRESS>. thalamocortical system#
cortex has layers that are connected in columns through 5 layers
cotex has different types based on distributions of cells through layers (Brodmann map 1909 has 50ish areas)
thalamus has lots of connections - gates what goes into cortex
<IP_ADDRESS>. limbic system#
The limbic system contains glands which help relay emotions. Many hormonal responses that the body generates are initiated in this area. The limbic system includes the amygdala, hippocampus, hypothalamus and thalamus.
Amygdala:The amygdala helps the body respond to emotions, memories and fear. It is a large portion of the telencephalon, located within the temporal lobe which can be seen from the surface of the brain. This visible bulge is known as the uncus.
Hippocampus: This portion of the brain is used for learning memory, specifically converting temporary memories into permanent memories which can be stored within the brain. The hippocampus also helps people analyze and remember spatial relationships, allowing for accurate movements. This portion of the brain is located in the cerebral hemisphere.
Hypothalamus:The hypothalamus region of the brain controls mood, thirst, hunger and temperature. It also contains glands which control the hormonal processes throughout the body.
Thalamus:The Thalamus is located in the center of the brain. It helps to control the attention span, sensing pain and monitors input that moves in and out of the brain to keep track of the sensations the body is feeling.
<IP_ADDRESS>. brain stem#
All basic life functions originate in the brain stem, including heartbeat, blood pressure and breathing. In humans, this area contains the medulla, midbrain and pons. This is commonly referred to as the simplest part of the brain, as most creatures on the evolutionary scale have some form of brain creation that resembles the brain stem. The brain stem consists of midbrain, pons and medulla.
Midbrain:The midbrain, also known as the mesencephalon is made up of the tegmentum and tectum. These parts of the brain help regulate body movement, vision and hearing. The anterior portion of the midbrain contains the cerebral peduncle which contains the axons that transfer messages from the cerebral cortex down the brain stem, which allows voluntary motor function to take place.
Pons: This portion of the metencephalon is located in the hindbrain, and links to the cerebellum to help with posture and movement. It interprets information that is used in sensory analysis or motor control. The pons also creates the level of consciousness necessary for sleep.
Medulla: The medulla or medulla oblongata is an essential portion of the brain stem which maintains vital body functions such as the heart rate and breathing.
7.2.4. 1 - introduction#
<IP_ADDRESS>. genomics#
male Drosophila uses body position and environment to add rhythmic notes to song
female uses this to gauge male’s brain
neural circuits make up neural systems
neural systems serve 3 general functions
sensory systems
motor systems
associational systems - link the other two, higher order functions
gene has coding DNA (exons) and regulatory DNA (introns)
model organisms
cat - visual cortex
squid and sea slug had really large neurons
4 species: worm C. elegans, Drosophila, zebrafish Danio rerio, mouse Mus musculus
complete genome is available for them
can try homologous recombination - splicing in new genes
human genome has ~20k genes, ~14k expressed in brain, ~6k expressed only in brain
single-gene mutations can cause diseases like microcephaly
simulate brain as a computer
passive cabling equation
theoretical neuroscience
blue brain project
human brain project
<IP_ADDRESS>. cellular components#
neuron doctrine by Ramon y Cajal / Sherrington replaces Golgi’s reticular theory
Cajal uses Golgi’s salt-staining method to show neurons are distinct
Sherrington finds synapses
there are rare gap junctions between neurons (where there are electrical synapses)
neurons
number of inputs reflects convergence
number of targets reflects divergence
local circuit neurons = interneurons - short axons
projection neurons - long axons
glial cells - support and regeneration
outnumber neurons 3:1
they are stem cells - can generate new glia
maintaining ion gradients, modulating nerve signals, modulating synaptic action, scaffolding, aiding recovery
astrocytes - in CNS, maintain chemical environment, retain stem cell properties
oligodendrocytes - in CNS, lay down myelin - in PNS, Schwann cells do this
microglial cells - remove debris
glial stem cells - make more glia and sometimes neurons
<IP_ADDRESS>. cellular diversity#
~10^11 neurons, more glia
histology - microscopic analysis of cells
stains
Golgi stain - randomly stains only some neurons
Nissl stain - only stains cell bodies
Myelin stain - only stains myelin
<IP_ADDRESS>. neural circuits#
neuropil - bundle of dendrites/axons/glia - where synaptic connectivity occurs
afferent neuron - carries info toward the brain
efferent neuron - carries info away
myotatic reflex example - knee-jerk
<IP_ADDRESS>. organization of the human nervous system#
sensory systems
motor systems
CNS
brain
spinal cord
PNS
sensory neurons
somatic motor division - connect CNS to skeletal muscles
autonomic or visceral motor division - innervate muscles / glands
autonomic ganglia - peripheral motor neurons that take inputs from brainstem / spinal cord
enteric system - small ganglia / neurons in gut that influence gastric motility and secretion
sympathetic division - ganglia lie near the vertebral column and sent their axons to a variety of targets
parasympathetic division - ganglia are found near organs they innervate
groupings
ganglia - accumulations of cell bodies / supporting cells
nerve - bundles of axons in PNS
tract - bundles of CNS axons
if they cross the brain midline called commisures
nuclei - local accumulations of similar neurons
cortex - sheet-like arrays of neurons
gray matter - has more cell bodies
white matter - has more axons
<IP_ADDRESS>. neural systems#
unity of function - divide things into different systems - ex. visual
representation of information - ex. vision can be topographic map, taste can be computational map
subdivision into subsystems - ex. vision has color, form, motion, all in parallel
<IP_ADDRESS>. structural analysis#
often-used lesion studies
anterograde - source to termination
vs retrograde - terminus to source
<IP_ADDRESS>. functional analysis of neural systems#
electrophysiological recording - uses electrodes, neuron-level
can determine receptive field - region in sensory space where a specific stimulus elicits a spike
functional brain imaging - noninvasive, records local activity
computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), PET, SPECT, fMRI, MEG, MSI
<IP_ADDRESS>. analyzing complex behavior#
cognitive neuroscience - understanding higher-order functions
neuroethology - complex behaviors of animals
7.2.5. 2 - electrical signals of nerve cells#
microelectrode - fine glass tubing filled with good conductor
all cells have a voltage difference across them
assume resting potential - we’ll use -58 mV
depolarized - less negative - we’ll use +58 mV
potentials
receptor potential - (small) due to the activation of sensory neurons by external stimuli
at terminal of dendrite
graded - depends on how strong the input is
synaptic potential - (small) caused by activation of synapse
at middle of dendrite
action potential - cause by the other 2
at the axon
active transporters create differences in concentrations of specific ions - battery
cells can be depolarized by adding too much K+ outside
ion channels - make membranes selectively permeable - wires
ions
outside: high Na, Cl; low K
generally 10:1 ratio between inside, outside
inside of cell has a bunch of negative proteins to balance chlorine
ions want to spread out because of entropy (then they factor in charge difference)
\(V_{ion} = 58/z * log(X_{out} / X_{in}) \)
calculate for each ion, if able to move
z is charge on ion
for potassium: 58/1 * log(.1) = -58mV
Cl Nernst potential is actually -70 mV (even though we assumed -58 before)
Cl works as an inhibitor - ex. alcohol lets chloride in
whichever ion leaks, this determines the membrane potential
hodgkin-huxley
large squid escape neurons
adding K+ outside depolarizes the cell
adding Na+ outside raises height of spike
7.2.6. 3 - voltage-dependent membranes#
voltage clamp - one electrode outside, one inside
measured with reference to outside (usually more negative inside)
keeps voltage constant
current clamp - keeps current constant
current clamp - just measures the voltage without interfering
patch-clamp - suction part of cell into pipette
passive properties
current injection: \(V_t = V_{\infty} (1-e^{-t/ \tau})\)
voltage decay: \(V_t = V_{\infty} e^{-t / \tau}\)
block Na+ current with tetrodotoxin
block K+ current with tetraethyl-ammonium
refractory period is because Na needs to stop being inactivated
Na+ is transient, K+ is not
myelin insulates sections - less ion loss
called saltatory conduction
faster and more efficient
concentrates action potential to nodes
without myelin, 10 m/s with myelin, 100 m/s
deals with JAM receptor system
umyelinated can be ok
might want to regenerate
don’t care about speed
PNS
Schwann cells
loss - Guillan-barre syndrome
CNS
oligodendrocytes
loss - multiple sclerosis (MS)
7.2.7. 4 - ion channel transporters#
patch electrode - pull a piece of membrane out
cell-attached - don’t break membrane
whole-cell - break membrane
inside-out - inside of membrane is outside electrode
outside-out - outside of membrane is outside electrode - this method is always preferred
tetrodotoxin binds to outside of cell membrane
some channels are delayed
self-inactivating = transient - channels turn off by themselves
take 10-20 ms
voltage-gated channels
Na+, K+, Ca, Cl
frog Xenopus Ooctyes ion channels are studied
TRP channels gated by mechanical / heat
4 K+ channels
delayed rectifier
fast acting - shapes AP, used for hearing
late phase - slow ending, makes AP fire again
inward rectifier - open at resting potential - establishes membrane potential
mitten model - protein rotates around
human genes: 10 Na, 10 Ca, 100K, ~5 Cl
there are more types of potassium channels
channel-opathies - diseases can be caused by altered ion channels
ion transporters
ATPase Pumps
Na+/K+ pump
Ca pump
ion exchangers
Na+/K+ pump exchanges 3Na for 2K ions
1/3 of body’s energy
2/3 of neuron’s energy
brains use 20% of body’s energy
Ouabain blocks this
SERT - Na transporter
co-transporter
ligand-gated channels
respond to a chemical
usually allow Na, K, Cl to flow in and out
7.2.8. 5 - synapses#
<IP_ADDRESS>. synapse types#
electrical synapses
gap junction channels
ions flow through gap junction channels
presynaptic and postsynaptic cell are almost the same
delay is fast (.1 ms)
gap junction proteins have been showing up in diseases
simple organisms have these
chemical synapses
bouton - end of presynaptic dendrite
spines - start of postsynaptic dendrite
voltage-gated Ca comes in and causes vesicles to fuse with presynaptic membrane
neurotransmitter released
bind to ligand-gated channels which let ions flow through
if Cl flows into postsynaptic cell - inhibition
pumps get rid of neurotransmitters quickly
<IP_ADDRESS>. neurotransmitter types#
released when Ca comes in due to depolarization
peptides
ex. oxytocin
require long Ca exposure
loaded into vesicles up by the cell body - can take days to get to bouton
neurotransmitter diffuses away - doesn’t always have specific target
can spread to all neurons in the area (ex. substance P)
small & fast
glutamate, Ach, GABA
loaded into vesicles in bouton
presynaptic cell takes these back up
<IP_ADDRESS>. discovery#
neurotransmitter lifecycle
synthesis -> receptors -> function -> removal
important that they are removed
60 s to recycle
Loewi’s experiment showed that neurotransmitters can flow through solution to synchronize heart
<IP_ADDRESS>. synaptic transmission#
minis = MEPP - not big enough to fire the neuron
you can treat a muscle as a post-synaptic junction
chatter from single vesicle release
quantal basis of neurotransmitter release - 1,2,3,etc because vesicles release as all-or-none
synapses / vesicles are all about the same size across different species
receptors receive these neurotransmitters differently
each vesicle is covered with proteins
SNAPs on plasma membrane
SNAREs on vesicle
ex. synaptobrevin
botulinum toxin, tetanus toxin - block synaptobrevin - clip other proteins
render a vesicle inactive
they recognize each other and lock for priming - ready to release when Ca+ enters
need to endocytose membrane to make more vesicles
endocytosis includes clathrin which curves the membrane
can measure single ligand-gated channel by clamping it alone
7.2.9. 6 - neurotransmitters#

3 is ionotropic!
mushroom drugs
<IP_ADDRESS>. excitatory#
Acetylcholine - excites muscle cells
receptors: nAch
Acetylcholinesterase breaks down Ach after it is released
neurotoxins (ex. Serin) break down Acetylcholinesterase so Ach stays and muscles stay on (nerve gases)
Myasthinia is when you develop antibodies against your own nAch receptors
you have trouble controlling your eyes
Glutamate - excites pyramidal cells
VGLUT pumps Glutamate into vesicles
EATT transports extracellular Glutamate into presynaptic terminal / nearby Glial cells
Glial cells convert glutamate to glutamine (inactivates) and glutamine is taken up by the presynaptic terminal
glutamate overload if you overload the inactivating pumps in the glial cells
glutamate receptors
AMPA - fast Na only
NMDA - slow, Na and Ca and also requires depolarization
<IP_ADDRESS>. inhibitory#
,4. GABA/glycine
have simple transporters that move released GABA into presynaptic terminal / Glia
Ionotropic GABA receptors - depressants; shut down nervous system
can bind steroids like estrogen - different effects in men / women
alcohol binds to this, shuts things down
immature neurons have high intracellular Cl - people don’t know why
<IP_ADDRESS>. neuromodulators#
lifecycle molecules
synthesis: L-Dopa, trytophan
reuptake: DAT, NET, SerT
breakdown: MAO
vesicular transport: VMAT
catecholamines
pathway: DOPA -> Dopamine -> Norepinephrine -> Epinephrine
dopamine - forming of memories
produced by substantia nigra
loss of these neurons -> Parkinson’s
norepinephrine
produced by locus coeruleus
serotonin = 5HT - happiness
Tryptophan -> serotonin
serotonin produced by Raphe nuclei
affected by LSD
histamine - not well-known
antihistamines can make you hallucinate
atp - sensitivity to pain
neuropeptides - slow
substance P - pain
alpha-endorphin - analgesia (block pain)
vasopressin - blood pressure
thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) - metabolism
neuropeptide Y - mood/aggression
enndocannabinoids - weed
ex. anandamide - binds to CB1 (cannabanoid 1 receptor)
retrograde signal - post back to pre - inhibit the inhibitor
this increases the signal
nitric oxide - gas
binds to guanylyl cyclase
7.2.10. 7 - molecular signaling#
<IP_ADDRESS>. localization#
chemical signaling mechanisms
synaptic - local
ex. Ach
paracrine - medium distance, neurotransmitter sprinkled and nearby targets take it up
ex. serotonin
endocrine - get into your blood stream - body-wide signaling
ex. vasopressin
amplification = enzyme
signal that activates enzyme amplifies signal
cell-signaling molecules
cell-impermeant molecules
need transmembrane receptors
ex. glutamate
cell-permeant molecules (steroids)
can have intracellular receptors
signaling molecules
adhesion molecules - like a lock and key - binds neurons together
spine has small neck - hard for proteins to go through it
keeps information local
large raft of signaling molecules keeps info local
<IP_ADDRESS>. celllular receptors#
ionotropic - channel-linked receptors
neurotransmitter binds to a channel that opens
ex. Glu ionotropic receptor
signal is sodium coming in
enzyme-linked receptors
ex. TrkA NGF receptor - Tyrosine kinase
once it binds, it becomes an enzyme
metabotropic - G-protein-coupled receptors
ex. Glue metabotropic receptor
activate G-protein that then does something
these require energy for G-proteins
Heterotrimeric G-proteins - G-protein has 3 subunits: - 1. Gs - binds norepinephrine
cAMP
2. Gq - binds glutamate
- + DAG (diaglycerol) & IP3
3. Gi - binds dopamine
- inhibits cAMP
Monomeric G-proteins - G-protein has just one subunit - ex. Ras
intracellular receptors
ex. estrogen receptors
activates intracellular transcription factors
<IP_ADDRESS>. second messengers#
Ca must be pumped out of neuron or
Ca can be stored into internal stores in ER
Adenylyl cyclase turns ATP into cAMP -> PKA
Guanylyl cyclase turns GTP into cGMP -> PKG
would use inside-out patch to study these
Phospholipase C -> PKC -> IP3 lets Ca out of ER (usually kills cell)
<IP_ADDRESS>. protein control#
kinases (on switch) add phosphate to protein and makes them active
PKA - cAMP binds then catalytic domain can bind
non-covalent so can diffuse into nucleus
CAM kinase
covalent
protein kinase C
covalent - very local to membrane
phosphatases (off switch) remove phosphates
<IP_ADDRESS>. long-term alteration#
long-term alteration requires epigenetic changes (change transcription factors)
transcription factor CREB requires three things at once
Ca comes in and binds Cam kinase
activate Protein kinase A - this can stay in nucleus for a while
how much to make
MAP kinase, ras
on/off switch
when all of these things come in at once - convergence signaling - CREB will make actin, AMPA receptors
TrkA binds NGF (Nerve growth factor) - peptide and has 3 pathways:
PI 3 kinase
ras
Phospholipase C
this displays divergence signaling
cerebellar synapses
mGlu inhibits AMPA with negative feedback
lets out Ca which depresses AMPA receptor
signal scaling - tyrosine hydroxylase makes dopamine
more Ca in bouton activates more hydroxylase -> makes more dopamine
Ca comes in whenever fires
use it or lose it
7.2.11. 8 - synaptic plasticity#
<IP_ADDRESS>. short-term#
measured by firing neuron before muscle and recording response
synaptic facilitation - frequency-dependent plasticity - fire faster, get bigger EPSPS
Ca comes in and persists during next pulse
ms time scale
synaptic depression - transmitters are depleted
s time scale
synaptic potentiation/augmentation - changes in presynaptic proteins
min time scale
experiments
habituation - decrease vesicles on sensory neuron after too much stimuli
sensitization - associate two stimuli together:
mechanism
sensory neuron -> serotinergic neuromodulatary interneuon -> motor neuron
interneuron releases serotonin
cAMP produced in sensory neuron
long term - CREB in nucleus - synapse growth
central signal for LTM
activates PKA
short term - decreases K+ current
sensory neuron doesn’t learn, neuromuscular junction gets stronger
mutant genes associated with cAMP identified
phosphodiesterase - if you remove this, too much cAMP
adenylate cyclase
<IP_ADDRESS>. long-term#
HM lost his memory w/out hippocampus
site of LTP
at night memories are moved from hippocampus (flash drive) to cortex (long-term hard drive)
Schaffer collateral pathway is one pathway in hippocampus (also perforant pathway, mossy fiber)
pre-stimulate with tetanus
later when stimulated EPSP is bigger
usually 20 ms between firing - LTP when multiple firing in less time
Schaffer mechanism - NMDA receptor key to this
both AMPA and NMDA exist
NMDA -> Ca -> CAM kinase -> LTP
Mg blocks NMDA unless already depolarized
requires good timing!
silent synapses
short-term - more AMPA receptors, long-term new synapses
all synapses born with only NMDA
protein synthesis needed for LTP (mostly making more AMPA)
unclear how synapse decides whether to strengthen / make more synapses
LTD - long-term depression is opposite of LTP - long-term potentiation
low levels of Ca lead to AMPA being endocytosed
mGlu -> PKC -> starts LTD
epilepsy - neurons fire together and wire together

Cloudmesh Graphical User Interface¶
This project can also be taken as an independent study or as part of the Cloud Engineering class
Goals¶
In this project, you will be developing a graphical user interface for cloudmesh based on Electron. You will be focusing on first displaying the information available in the cloudmesh database. This includes information from clouds about
images
flavors
virtual machines
keys
security groups
You will also develop a convenient registration form that dynamically creates a form for including credentials from the various clouds based on the cloudmesh configuration file. For
virtual machines
keys
security groups
uploading new information including starting new vms is required. The clouds we consider are
openstack
AWS
Azure
Google
Requirements¶
This project is easy for those with javascript experience. We will not consider other GUI frameworks. If you however find a better one, please discuss with us first.
Difficulty¶
easy - moderate: This is an easy project as in theory you will only need minimal access to the cloud while making sure you obtain information for each of the data types, which can either be obtained from cloudmesh or can be found in the code base where examples are posted.
Deliverables¶
Working code
Video documenting the use of the GUI
showcasing image, flavor, and vm interactions
showcasing registration for clouds
check-ins into GitHub by all team members. If only one team member checks in all other team members will not get credit.

In 1991 I discovered the rave scene. What can I say it truly took my breath away and nothing could have prepared me for it.
People from all races, rich and poor dancing together under one roof whereas in years past some of these people were kicking the hell out of each other. The rave scene was incredible and I do believe that it did and still has a massive hold on our particular generation.
When attending raves I would often just smoke marijuana and drink alcohol and I still had a buzz but many of my friends were in to Ecstacy at that time. I had seen the press articles about Ecstacy at the time and this had scared me in to not taking pills with them and besides I had a good time just smoking some reefer and chillin'.
Eventually curiousity got the better of me. I was just seeing that week after week what an incredible time my friends were having Rolling on E's and unlike all the Press and News 'Scare Stories' I had seen at the time that my friends were taking E's every week and NOT dying. In fact it looked as though they weren't coming to any harm whatsoever.
So in 1992 I took my first E along with them. I had an incredible experience. My friends couldn't drag me off the dancefloor. I was going mental all night dancing on the stage, watching other people moving to the beats, my friends felt like more of a friend than ever before (and I had always got on with them really well anyway), we had deep conversations. It was absolutely incredible. It was breathtaking. I had to work the next day and I was amazed at the fact that I did not have a hangover or a come down of any kind.
The 1992 experience of my first E started a 6 year habit of dropping at least 3-6 pills almost every weekend at a local club (2-3 on Friday, Another 2-3 on Saturday). 6-10 pills in one night for Christmas, New Years Eve and Festivals.
My first bad experience came at a large summer music festival I went to in 1997. I had taken 10 pills by 5am as the festival was winding down and up until this point I had an unbelievable night. Again I was dancing like a madman and soaking up the sounds and the vibe of the people.
Now some people may say 10 pills you are asking for trouble and you would be right but after 4 years with little or no side effects and being young I thought 'I am Immune, I can take as many of these pills as I like and nothing bad will happen to me'.
I met up with my friends at 5am to make the journey back home as the festival was now winding down.
My previous feelings of euphoria, urge to dance and general friendliness towards other people came crashing down within minutes and turned in to extreme paranoia and I would say maybe even agression.
I started thinking that people knew I was on an E and that they were all talking about me rolling and criticising me(in reality of course most of them were on E themselves).
I was shouting at them. I was hurling abuse at them. I was so convinced that they were talking about me. My friend had to calm me down.
I waited at a train station to catch a train home. I sat on the train station platform on my own because I was so paranoid being around other people (my friends and other festival types were downstairs in the train station cafe).
The next train home only took around 10 minutes to arrive but it seemed like hours.
I was convinced that some cleaners that were on the train station platform knew that I was on E and that they were going to report me to the police and I was going to be arrested (ridiculous looking back on it but it 'seemed' so real).
Apparently (according to my friend - who was coming down at this point and really didn't need this) on the train home I was still swearing and shouting at anyone and everyone and was convinced that they were all talking about me rolling on an E. I was even coming out with 'speeches' to strangers (who weren't interested in reality and probably wanted to get off the train and away from me as soon as they could !!) justifying why I was on E in an effort to try and counteract their criticism.
The next day when I came down I had uncontrollable shaking, sweating and twitching and for the next week I was a wreck - paranoia, terrible mid-week 'blues'.
Now most 'sensible' people would have curbed their use of E at this point and maybe start thinking to themselves 'Maybe I've done too much'. Did I do that ? Hell no. I kept repeating to myself the tired old lines 'I did too many pills that night, I'll cut down' and 'It's only one bad experience'.
I continued on the weekly cycle reducing my pill intake to 2-3 week.
Meanwhile (without me noticing) my depression and paranoia was getting worse. My friends kept trying to point it out to me but I just kind of 'brushed it off' or ignored them.
Eventually in 1997 it finally hit me how the drug was affecting me (I began to realise my cycle of depression and paranoia) and I decided to call it a day and say goodbye to the love drug - ecstacy.
2 weeks after quitting I had what can only be described as a 'panic attack' at work. It was bizarre ..
I was working as normal on my computer at work and chatting to one of my work colleagues. Suddenly I couldn't hear what my work colleague was saying clearly any more or I couldn't concentrate on what he was saying. Coloured SpotLights and Balloons started appearing above his head at first and then all over his face masking it so I could not see it anymore.
I turned away from him and tried to calm down and continued to work on my computer. The text in my computer screen suddenly turned in to what can only be described as a Garbled, Swirling Pattern in effect ensuring that I could not read the text on screen. It looked 'mashed'.
I suddenly burst in to a cold sweat and had trouble breathing and my heart started racing. I became slightly paranoid.
I quickly ducked in to the toilets, locked myself in there for 5 minutes or so and splashed my face with water several times and tried to calm myself down.
I couldn't believe what was happening. I thought 'Why is this happening ? I have quit drugs now'
I was still shakey and was sweating a lot for the rest of the afternoon.
I still can't explain to this day what caused this ? I don't have any ideas ?
After stopping E the paranoia wore off after a month or so but the depression and boredom remained for around 6 months. That 6 months seemed to go on for ever. It was like I had lost something deep inside and that it was never ever going to return.
I wondered if I was going to feel that low for the rest of my life ? I even had thoughts of taking my own life although I had the will not to carry them out.
Now after being clean for almost a year and a half now it is only now that I can see that I feel like my old self again and that things are returning to normal.
Some of the experiences I went through while on E were fantastic and incredible and I would say life changing. I still love the music and buying the music (both old and new) has become my new obsession. I can listen to a track and still remember what I felt. It triggers so many good memories and feelings.
Other experiences have scared me so much that I would never ever touch another E again.
This is just my experience told as honestly as I can. Take what you will from it. It's not a scare story and it's not an endorsement to take E story. It's just my story.

Recipe 19.4. Unpacking a Few Items in a Multiple AssignmentCredit: Brett Cannon, Oren Tirosh, Alex Martelli ProblemPython's multiple unpacking assignment is very handy when you are unpacking all the items from a sequence and binding each to a name. However, you often need to unpack (and bind to names) only some items from the "front" of a sequence, and bind another name to "the rest" of the sequence (the part you didn't unpack). SolutionA generator provides an elegant solution to this problem: def peel(iterable, arg_cnt=1): """ Yield each of the first arg_cnt items of the iterable, then finally an iterator for the rest of the iterable. """ iterator = iter(iterable) for num in xrange(arg_cnt): yield iterator.next( ) yield iterator if _ _name_ _ == '_ _main_ _': t5 = range(1, 6) a, b, c = peel(t5, 2) print a, b, list(c) # emits: 1 2 [3, 4, 5] DiscussionPython supports the handy idea of multiple unpacking assignment. Say that t5 is any sequence of five items. Then, you can code: a, b, c, d, e = t5 to bind a name to each item of t5. However, you often do not know (nor care) exactly how many items a certain sequence t holds: you want to bind (say) two names, one to each of the first two items, and a third name to "the rest" of t (this requirement does imply that t must hold at least two items). If you know that t is a "proper" sequence, with support for slicing, not just an arbitrary iterable, you can code: a, b = t[:2] c = t[2:] but this is nowhere as elegant or handy as the multiple unpacking assignment. Moreover, if you are not certain about the nature of t (i.e., if t can be any iterable, not necessarily supporting slice syntax), the task becomes more cumbersome: c = iter(t5) a = c.next( ) b = c.next( ) Given these issues, the Python Development mailing list[1] once discussed a new syntax for generalized multiple unpacking assignment, such that:
a, b, *c = t would perform exactly this taskbind names a and b to the first two items of t and name c to "the rest". I didn't like the idea of making the Python language bigger by adding this extra functionality to assignment statements, so I came up with this recipe's generator. This generator provides this functionality fully and without any need to add any new syntax to Python. Just one caveat: you must make sure that you pass the arg_cnt argument properly. If you pass a wrong value for arg_cnt, or if the sequence you pass to peel is shorter than arg_cnt, you get an exception at runtime. But then, you also get a Python exception at runtime if you try to perform a multiple assignment and the number of names you have on the left of the = sign is not identical to the number of items of the sequence you have on the right. Therefore, this recipe isn't any different from normal, multiple unpacking assignment in this respect. If you think it is important to relax some parts of this requirement, see Recipe 19.5. See AlsoLanguage Reference and Python in a Nutshell about multiple unpacking assignments; Recipe 19.5. |

It is compatible with Digilent’s line of Pmod™ peripheral modules and is suitable for use with the Microchip MPLAB® IDE tools. The Cerebot MX3cK is also compatible for use with the chipKIT™ MPIDE development environment. ChipKIT and MPIDE are PIC32-based systems compatible with many existing Arduino™ code examples, reference materials and other resources. The Cerebot MX3cK is designed to be easy to use and is suitable for use by anyone, from beginners to advanced users, for experimenting with electronics and embedded control systems. It is intended to be used with either the Multi-Platform IDE (i.e., MPIDE which is a modified Arduino IDE) or the Microchip MPLAB IDE. The kit contains everything needed to start developing embedded applications using the MPIDE. In order to use the MPLAB IDE, an additional programming/debugging device, such as a Microchip PICkit3, is required. The Cerebot MX3cK provides 42 I/O pins that support a number of peripheral functions, such as UART, SPI, and I2C™ ports, as well as five pulse-width modulated outputs and five external interrupt inputs. Eleven of the I/O pins can be used as analog inputs, in addition to their use as digital inputs and outputs. |


[gecode-users] 'Shared' IdxView in an element constraint
David Rijsman
davidrijsman at gmail.com
Thu May 8 16:47:15 CEST 2008
I have a use case where I have to post an element constraint several
times on the same variable array but using different variables for the
'index' and rhs. For example
A = {A1,A2,A3}
A[Y1] = Z1
A[Y2] = Z2
...
What I would like todo is to share the variable array among the
element constraints and I thought I could do that by posting the
element constraint myself:
Gecode::Int::Element::IdxView<Gecode::Int::IntView>* aview =
Gecode::Int::Element::IdxView<Gecode::Int::IntView>::init(this,A);
GECODE_ES_FAIL(this,(Gecode::Int::Element::ViewDom<Gecode::Int::IntView,Gecode::Int::IntView,Gecode::Int::IntView>::post(this,aview,A.size(),Y1,Z1)));
GECODE_ES_FAIL(this,(Gecode::Int::Element::ViewDom<Gecode::Int::IntView,Gecode::Int::IntView,Gecode::Int::IntView>::post(this,aview,A.size(),Y2,Z2)));
...
This will crash although by looking at the code I conclude this should
work, am I missing something or doing something completely absurd?
By the way it workd fine if I use a sharedarray of integers and post
GECODE_ES_FAIL(this,(Gecode::Int::Element::Int<Gecode::Int::IntView,Gecode::Int::IntView>::post(this,shared_integers,Y1,Z1)));
GECODE_ES_FAIL(this,(Gecode::Int::Element::Int<Gecode::Int::IntView,Gecode::Int::IntView>::post(this,shared_integers,Y2,Z2)));
thanks,
David

THE PRINCESS BRIDE A film review by Clark Quinn Copyright 1987 Clark Quinn
"Scaling the Cliffs of Insanity Battling the Rodents of Unusual Size Cast into the Pit of Despair True love has never been a snap."
I admit it, I was skeptical. I also was hopeful. This paradox came about by having read the wonderful book THE PRINCESS BRIDE by William Goldman and being unable to imagine that it could be turned into a successful movie, capturing the humor, wonder, the *magic* of that book. Why, then, was I hopeful? Well, the screenplay was written by the same William Goldman who also wrote the screenplay for one of my all-time favorite movies, BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID. And the director was Rob Reiner, who has an apparently flawless record with THIS IS SPINAL TAP, THE SURE THING, and STAND BY ME. With mixed feelings, I went to see a sneak preview of the movie THE PRINCESS BRIDE.
For once, my optimism was richly rewarded and my cynicism was sent snivelling back under its rock; this is a near-perfect movie. The movie captures, as did the book, an unabashed affection for heroic fantasy, touched with a soft spot for True Love, and retaining a deft appreciation for humor. Witty, warm, and still exciting, this movie captures the magic that seems so elusive in today's bottom-line oriented movie making. Of course, there is more than just a good screenwriter and director behind this success. As I have gleaned from an interview with Norman Lear and Rob Reiner in the Calendar section of the Los Angeles Times, and an excerpt, published on the net, from a cinema magazine, this is definitely a labor of love by the principals. Rob Reiner fell in love with the book and has been trying to make it for many years. William Goldman wrote the screenplay for the book and fought to regain control of it so that it could get made. Norman Lear produced the money for the movie when Rob Reiner was having trouble obtaining it, with no strings attached.
Enough about the history, how about the movie? Well, most of the casting is nearly perfect. As the mysterious and heroic protaganist of the story, newcomer Cary Elwes is perfect. Capturing the necessary secure confidence, self-effacing humility, and romantic fervor, Elwes *is* Wesley. I didn't recognize Mandy Patinkin as the murdered swordmaker's son, Inigo Montoya, until part way through the movie. He just about stole every scene he was in. In fact, my favorite scene in the movie is the duel between these two on the brink of the Cliffs of Insanity. Similarly well cast was Andre the Giant as the strongman, Vizzini (?); Chris Sarandon as the wicked Prince; and Christopher Guest as the evil advisor to the prince. From there the casting was only a little less effective. I wish I could be more enthused about the heroine. Another newcomer, Robin Wright is beautiful enough as the milkmaid-turned- princess, Buttercup, but she seemed to lack some magic sparkle. I may be picking at nits, but I confess that I thought her a tad wooden. Another niggling problem was the casting of some of the bit parts. For reasons I can only guess at, a number of cameos were filled by (to greater or lesser extent) well-known characters. By and large, these failed (for me) to capture the requisite gentle, subtle humor that characterized the rest of the movie. Wallace Shawn, as the Sicilian, was particularly strident and unconvincing as a masterful schemer. Peter Cook, as the Bishop, added a jarring note to the wedding scene. Billy Crystal and Carol Kane, as the semi-retired miracle worker and his wife, added a less distracting note, but their scene still retained a touch of schtick. To end on a cheery note, Peter Falk as the grandfather and the boy who played the sick grandson, in the story surrounding the story of the Princess Bride, were both excellent. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised at the understated job Falk turned in as the grandfather slowly arousing the interest of the originally sceptical child.
The rest of the movie stood out, too. The scenery and cinematography were not noticeably awkward, a frequent problem in fantasy movies. While you had to be aware that some of the settings (such as the infamous Cliffs) were not real, there was none of the usual artificial look about places like the Swamp of Fire. If I do not notice the scenery too much, if the scenery is an integral part of the movie, I consider it a success. The same holds true for the music. With my tin ear, the only time I notice the soundtrack is when the music strongly contrasts with what I would expect in a scene. In one recent movie I kept wondering, "Why are they playing this creepy, somethings-gonna-happen music in the middle of the denouement?" While this may be damning with faint praise, Mark Knopfler's score certainly didn't intrude on the scenes at all. You'll have to read another review to find out more about how effective the score was.
The screenplay, as I should have expected, was wonderful. As was noted in the excerpt on the net, large amounts of the dialogue were lifted from the book. The rest of the dialogue seemed to aptly mesh with the atmosphere that I waxed so enthusiastic about at the beginning of this review. My only hesitation is that I saw this at a sneak preview in our large auditorium, which has a murky sound system, so that I missed some of the dialogue, particularly of Andre the Giant (who had some good lines). Similarly, the pacing of the direction was superb. There were no flat spots, no rushed action.
All in all, I think that THE PRINCESS BRIDE is a must see. While I will have to see it again before I confer upon it the status of a classic, I will give it a strong 3 on the -4 to +4 scale. I may well give it a 4 after a second viewing. -- Clark

A project that had been almost as long overdue as reviving http://www.stevenclontz.com was updating my neglected resume.
The tl;dr version: check it out at http://resume.stevenclontz.com! But if you think that looks nice and would like to check out the web app that powers it, please read on. :-)
I knew I wanted my resume to be web-first. The last time I wrote a resume (back in early 2011) I had TeX’d it up locally. And hey, at least that’s better than a Word document, right? However, and maybe I’ve gotten lazier in the past two years… but trudging through this didn’t seem appealing:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
|
So began my search for a simpler way. My first instinct was Markdown - it’s what Teloga uses, it’s what Reddit uses, heck, it’s what this blog uses. And certainly this markup is a lot friendlier to read and edit:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 |
|
So I thought the simple thing to do would be to just make a page on this blog for the resume. And when I did, it didn’t look half bad either.
The only problem… I’d probably need a PDF version as well, and maybe even have to print it at some point. Silly old media.
Now, keeping multiple copies of the same resume definitely violates DRY; I wanted a slicker solution. So my first idea was to just print the webpage from Chrome and save it as a PDF.
Yikes.
So, the issue that Octopress’s default theme doesn’t have a nice print stylesheet is a topic for another day, but I figured there was someone else out there of a similar mind that would have already paved the way for a nice way to share a resume written in Markdown.
As it often does, the Google helped me find an answer earlier today: http://pseudoweb.net/2010/10/25/developing-your-resume/
Looks nice, and it prints well too. Incidentally, Mr. Welch’s resume app makes use of this very cool Ruby gem called Sinatra which I may need to look more into for simple apps. I’m new to Ruby (hey maybe I can add it to my resume now though) but hacking his app to do what I wanted was pretty straight forward.
I added a few extra variables to the configuration YAML to store the URL of the page itself and the URL of a QR Code image leading to that URL, which I use in a couple of nice extra features:
- If the page is printed, it adds a line to the top: “Optimized for web | http://resume_url”
- A QR code floats in the upper right of the page, also linking to the digital version of the resume.
You can see it in action at my resume page, and my forked version of the app can be found on my Github.
There are still a couple of tweaks that might be nice to have if I decide to work on this more later.
- It’d be preferable to have a script to burn a PDF from the resume.md Markdown file rather than using a browser printout, possibly leveraging LaTeX.
- A simple change would be to move some of the basic data (name, address, etc.) into the configuration file to standardize the header.
In the meantime, I hope you found all this interesting, and maybe I’ve inspired you to use revision control and Markdown to maintain your own resume!

Networks are defined by two things: nodes and links.
Nodes: a collection of entities which have properties that are somehow related to each other
Edges: connections between nodes
Say we have tabular data for Les Miserables with columns for "scene", "character", and "line". We want to examine the network of which characters co-occur in scenes. Take all unique characters are nodes and link between all characters in a scene together.
d3.nest().key(function(d) { return d.scene; })
.pd.groupby('scene')
.Social network data extract
Many possibilities: Connect any tools that can compute layouts to any other visualation tool. A few useful examples:
Colorful, perceptually uniform, colorblind-safe, monotonically-increasing luminance

What’s new on the NME 1 and NME 2 playlists this week?
ICYMI: we now have two radio channels here at NME! You can tune into NME 1 for a selection of stone-cold classics and indie anthems, while NME 2 will bring you the best of the past decade — from alternative bops to grime and leftfield dance.
Each week Team NME carefully handpick a selection of tunes to add to both playlists — here are the NME 1 & 2 playlist additions for this week.
On the A List
Billie Eilish – ‘Everything I Wanted’
First on the playlist this week we have the new one from Billie Eilish. The teenage star’s first piece of new music since her excellent debut album ‘When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?’ is a haunting fusion of her trademark whispered vocals and crisp electrical production. A total eerie earworm, and we love it.
J Hus – ‘Must Be’
Next up we’ve got the new one from J Hus, and the rapper’s highly anticipated comeback song is a belter. Combining his wicked lyricism with slick, afro-swing instrumentals, he’s created another winner.
On the B List
Biig Piig – ‘Roses and Gold’
Blending lilting house beats with gorgeous hazy production, Biig Piig’s latest is a slice of blissful summer in the middle of this grey November.
Glass Animals & Denzel Curry – ‘Tokyo Drifting’
It’s another comeback song on this week’s playlist – and this time in the form of the new one from Glass Animals and they’ve teamed up with American rapper Denzel Curry. On it vocalist Dave Bayley has created an extreme alter-ego Wavey Davey, who’s his “fucked-up Sasha Fierce”, and is “ironically flexing” over the bolshy production. With its killer brass hooks and Curry’s exquisite verse blended with Glass Animals trademark woozy production, it’s a beauty. Good to have you back, lads.
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds – ‘Wandering Star’
Filled with jangling glockenspiels (that sounds like sleigh bells) and a punchy sing-a-long chorus, Noel’s latest is a feel-good cut of growling indie-pop.
Rosalía – ‘A Palé’
‘A Palé’ sees Rosalía mix flamenco with snarling vocals and glitchy pop, and it absolutely slaps.
On the C List
Brother Zulu – ‘Ice Cold’
Love Tom Misch or FKJ? Then try this one from Brother Zulu. The London collective create banging future soul that combines huge funk basslines, hip-hop beats and jazzy instrumental licks, and ‘Ice Cold’ is one of their best.
Jehnny Beth – ‘I’m The Man’
Taken from the first ever Peaky Blinders OST, Jehnny Beth’s ‘I’m The Man’ is a standout track. She’s explained that it’s “an attempted study on humankind, what we define as evil and the inner conflict of morality. Because it is much easier to label the people who are clearly tormented by obsessions as monsters than to discern the universal human background which is visible behind them.” She does this with howling vocals over hulking overdriven guitars, and it’s hugely powerful.
 With its elegant production, impossibly catchy melody and mega chorus, it’s another exciting release from the NME 100 alumni.
The Whiffs – ‘Now I Know’
Last up we’ve got the new one from The Whiffs. With its cantering punk riffs and growled vocals, ‘Now I Know’ is an exciting glimpse of what the band have coming up.


Polygon
问题描述 :
输入:
The first line contains six integers n (1 <= n <= 20000), a(a != 0), b, c, l and r, which are the total of the points of the polygon and the parameters of the function and these parameters are in the range [-20000, 20000].
The next n lines contains two integers x and y, which are the coordinate of the point and both of them are in the range[-10^9, 10^9]. We can ensure that there is a edge between i-th point and (i+1)-th point (1 <= i < n) and there is a edge between first point and n-th point.

Weak Ten: NFL Stadiums Still Full of Empty Seats
If the NFL thought that its 100th season would be the big draw to fill seats in the stands this year, many teams are finding that is not the case as seats still remain woefully empty for many clubs across the fruited plains.
by Warner Todd HustonIn Chicago, as the Bears welcomed the nearby Detroit Lions into the Bear’s Den for a loss 20-13, fans stayed home despite the nice, if not somewhat chilly Chicago weather:
Meanwhile, in Nashville, as the Tennessee Titans played to the home crowd against the Kansas City Chief beating the visitors in a close 35-32 game, fans had other plans for their Sunday:
The Jet’s MetLife Stadium saw a cold day, but a warm 34-27 win over local rivals the New York Giants. But some fans were left asking where everyone was:
Cleveland’s FirstEnergy Stadium formed the backdrop of Cleveland’s close 19-16 win over the Buffalo Bills, but fans were still discouraged over the low turn out:
When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers opened their doors for the visiting Arizona Cardinals, they pulled out a 30-27 squeaker over the redbirds, but many noted the paltry attendance:
Finally, the winner of the weekend’s “where are they now” award goes to the Cincinnati Bengals whose fans decided to take it easy elsewhere this Sunday when the Baltimore Ravens came to town to deliver a crushing 49-13 beat down to The Bungles:

When, while the lovely valley teems with vapour around me, and the meridian sun strikes the upper surface of the impenetrable foliage of my trees, and but a few stray gleams steal into the inner sanctuary, I throw myself down among the tall grass by the trickling stream; and, as I lie close to the earth, a thousand unknown plants are noticed by me: when I hear the buzz of the little world among the stalks, and grow familiar with the countless indescribable forms of the insects and flies, then I feel the presence of the Almighty, who formed us in his own image, and the breath

Known issues with Rack and ECMA-262¶ ↑
-
Many users expect the escape() function defined in ECMA-262 to be compatible with URI. Confusion is especially strong because the documentation for the escape function includes a reference to the URI specifications. ECMA-262 escape is not however a URI escape function, it is a javascript escape function, and is not fully compatible. Most notably, for characters outside of the BMP. Users should use the more correct encodeURI functions.
Known issues with Rack and Web servers¶ ↑
-
Lighttpd sets wrong SCRIPT_NAME and PATH_INFO if you mount your FastCGI app at “/”. This can be fixed by using this middleware:
class LighttpdScriptNameFix def initialize(app) @app = app end def call(env) env["PATH_INFO"] = env["SCRIPT_NAME"].to_s + env["PATH_INFO"].to_s env["SCRIPT_NAME"] = "" @app.call(env) end end
Of course, use this only when your app runs at “/”.
Since lighttpd 1.4.23, you also can use the “fix-root-scriptname” flag in fastcgi.server.
Known conflicts regarding parameter parsing¶ ↑
* Many users have differing opinions about parameter parsing. The current parameter parsers in Rack are based on a combination of the HTTP and CGI specs, and are intended to round-trip encoding and decoding. There are some choices that may be viewed as deficiencies, specifically: - Rack does not create implicit arrays for multiple instances of a parameter - Rack returns nil when a value is not given - Rack does not support multi-type keys in parameters These issues or choices, will not be fixed before 2.0, if at all. They are very major breaking changes. Users are free to write alternative parameter parsers, and their own Request and Response wrappers. Moreover, users are encouraged to do so.
