SPEECHLESS A film review by Scott Renshaw Copyright 1995 Scott Renshaw
Starring: Michael Keaton, Geena Davis, Christopher Reeve. Screenplay: Robert King. Director: Ron Underwood.
All right, all right, we get the point: despite all similarities to the best-selling story, SPEECHLESS is *not* based on the romance between 1992 Presidential campaign rivals James Carville and Mary Matalin. In fact, the script was in development well before 1992. Still, the comparisons are inevitable, until one realizes a critical difference. No, it's not that the SPEECHLESS twosome are speech writers, not campaign managers; it's that Carville and Matalin's story is actually interesting. SPEECHLESS is a limp, poorly structured would-be romantic comedy.
SPEECHLESS is set during a New Mexico senatorial campaign, where Kevin Vallick (Michael Keaton) and Julia Mann (Geena Davis) meet and get romantic one night when neither one can sleep. What neither one realizes is that they are on opposite sides of the campaign: Kevin is a sit-com writer brought in to punch up the Republican candidate's speeches, while Julia is the chief speech writer for the Democratic candidate. At first each one believes that the other has an ulterior motive for the relationship, but eventually they let down their guard and become closer. But there are plent of obstacles in the way, including Julia's stud-reporter fiance (Christopher Reeve) and a series of stunts which continue to prove that all's fair in love and politics.
The standard formula for a movie like SPEECHLESS would have the two principles starting out as antagonists and realizing only at the end that they're crazy about each other. Screenwriter Robert King completely subverts expectations by throwing Kevin and Julia into each other's arms in the first fifteen minutes, then developing the antagonism. It's a noble attempt to shake things up, but unfortunately it just doesn't work. Part of the fun of watching sparring in a romantic comedy comes from recognizing the chemistry even before the characters do, but in SPEECHLESS they already know they're attracted to each other, and we're left with waiting for the campaign to end so they'll admit that they love each other already. There is such a herky-jerky feel to the constant bickering and making up that even King's sharp dialogue can't prevent SPEECHLESS from becoming repetitive after about half an hour.
Inconsistency is also the defining characteristic of the performances of Geena Davis and Michael Keaton, and with those performances most of their scenes together. The problems begin with their initial courtship, which does virtually nothing to establish Julia's character and merely establishes that Kevin is a wise-ass. Davis is radiantly beautiful, and Keaton is generally entertaining, but these characters are so plastic that nothing that happens to them seems to matter one bit. In a couple of scenes, like a quiet moment sitting at a fountain, they actually achieve some measure of connection. For the most part, however, they're just actors spouting lines. You keep waiting for a little spark, and it never happens.
Perhaps most disappointing is that King and director Ron Underwood completely waste their premise by removing all the punch from SPEECHLESS's politics. The setting seems perfect for a high- energy battle of the sexes with partisanship thrown into the mix, but that's never the tone that Underwood is going for. He wants a warm, fuzzy romance compatible with Marc Shaiman's flute-and-wind musical score, and the campaign which should have defined the conflict between Kevin and Julia fades into the background. It might as well have been a story about rival grocers, and every single character is about as uninspired as he or she could possibly be.
I was about the only reviewer in the civilized world who seemed to enjoy Robert King's previous screenplay, the Dana Carvey flop CLEAN SLATE, so I had some hopes for SPEECHLESS. But while there is wit in the words, this is a script which was probably much better on paper. On screen, it's still paper thin.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 political campaigns: 4.

Repeating Characters
问题描述 :
For this problem, you will write a program that takes a string of characters, S, and creates a new string of characters, T, with each character repaeated R times. That is, R copies of the first character of S, followed by R copies of the second character of S, and so on. Valid characters for S are the QR Code "alphanumeric" characters:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z $ % * + – . / :
输入:
The first line of input contains a single integer P,(1 <= P <= 1000), which is the number of data sets that follow. Each data set is a single ling of input consisting of the data set number N, followed by a space, followed by the repeat count R, (1 <= R <= 8), followed by a space , followed by the string S. The length of string S will always be at least one and no more than 20 characters. All the characters will be from the set of characters shown above.

There are a few ways to configure holonix for a project.
- “zero config” through
https://holochain.love
urls - pinned per-project with a
default.nix
file - embedded directly as a native NixOS overlay
Each approach has pros and cons.
The end goal for all approaches is to create a nix shell that includes a set of dependencies that are useful and predictable for development of zomes, core, GUIs, etc.
It is possible to use the --run
syntax to run scripts ad-hoc within a shell but this takes more time as the shell needs to be rebuilt per-command.
Building the nix shell takes 10-30 seconds. This is reasonable for continuous integration and other automations but can be a bit slow for local development feedback loops.
The usual workflow is for a developer to drop into one or more nix shells before starting work and keep it open for a working session.
Important:
Nix shell only parses and compiles the config from a default.nix
file (see below) once when it first builds!
To see new nix config exit
and rebuild the nix shell to create a fresh session.
holochain.love
Summary
Use holochain.love
and other github urls when you want a basic shell with sane defaults and minimum preparation/knowledge.
This is the best option for beginners, especially anyone feeling overwhelmed by holochain itself, not wanting to also learn NixOS at the same time.
This option is also great for continuous integration or other situations where it helps to decouple dependency management from project-specific concerns (e.g. what repositories are cloned to the local file system).
Details
Nix shell can build from either a local directory or a url.
nix-shell
builds from the current directory likenix-shell .
wouldnix-shell {{ path }}
builds from{{ path }}
locallynix-shell {{ url }}
builds from{{ url }}
remotely using curl
{{ path }}
can be either a directory or a compressed archive (e.g. a .tar.gz
“tarball”).
{{ url }}
must point to an archive.
If nix-shell
points to a directory it will look for shell.nix
first, then default.nix
If nix-shell
points to an archive/url it will look for default.nix
only.
Holonix has its own default.nix
file that is designed to be consumed by nix shell directly.
The default.nix
file in the root of the Holonix repository references a blank config.nix
file so it is unsuitable for project specific workflows such as release management (see below).
Native Github archive functionality can be used to target any commit of holonix.
The general format of holonix Github archives looks like:
https://github.com/holochain/holonix/archive/{{ ref }}.tar.gz
Where {{ ref }}
is any valid git ref, e.g. commit, tag, or branch.
https://holochain.love
is a convenience url that points to the master
branch of the holonix repo on github.
Benefits
When the shell points directly to the root of the holonix repository it pulls everything in with “sane defaults”.
This is the approach used by the holochain quick start guide as it requires almost no nix knowledge to get up and running.
Using https://holochain.love
provides the latest holonix code from the master
branch, give or take a little caching.
Referencing holonix by url decouples usage of the nix shell from the local file system making it very portable. This approach can be used to drop into a consistent nix shell from any computer in any directory.
Using the extended github archive url form allows surgical pinning and “time travel” of holonix and all its dependencies and workflows.
Limitations
Because the shell uses the “empty” config.nix
file in the root of the holonix repository, it cannot be configured or extended for a specific project.
Some holonix functionality, such as release management, relies on per-project configuration so isn’t supported by direct url references.
Ideally the latest commits on master
will be tested and work well but mistakes are possible. Even if master
is working perfectly as intended, breaking changes from dependencies (e.g. new Rust compiler versions) can be disruptive to complex existing projects.
Targetting a specific commit in a github archive url is great for individual developers or small teams but doesn’t scale well to many active git branches or large/dynamic team structures.
default.nix
Summary
This is the normal approach for “serious” work.
A dedicated nix derivation is created for each project with three parts:
- a reference to holonix
- a configuration file
- custom extensions (optional)
It balances extensibility and configurability against conventions and stability.
The intent is to allow teams to co-ordinate effectively with minimal boilerplate.
Basic nix understanding is needed to initially setup the repository. Once the repository is setup it is comparable to the holochain.love
approach for ease of use.
Details
Holonix includes two files that contain “live boilerplate”.
They are example.default.nix
and example.config.nix
.
They are called example.*
so that they aren’t used by the shell when holonix is directly referenced by url (see above).
example.default.nix
:
example.config.nix
:
How to holonixify a repo
Follow these steps to holonixify a repo:
- Copy
example.default.nix
into the repo root asdefault.nix
- Copy
example.config.nix
into the repo root asconfig.nix
- Change
config = import ./example.config.nix;
indefault.nix
to point toconfig.nix
- Change
release.version.current
to0.0.1
andrelease.version.previous
to_._._
inconfig.nix
- Change
release.owner
to the owner of your github repository - Change
release.repo
to the name of your github repository
That’s it!
How to use a holonixified repo
Point nix-shell
to the repository.
Nix shell will detect the default.nix
file and import the config.nix
to build.
This can be a local checkout or a github url.
How to upgrade holonix
The preferred way to pull new versions of holochain binaries is from new holonix versions.
Every new holochain binary release is tracked with a new holonix release. Some holonix releases don’t include a new holochain binary.
Committing holonix versions explicitly rather than manually tracking binaries ensures:
- New supporting dependencies will be available in holonix
- Rolling code back and forward or across branches switches holonix versions and also to the correct binaries
This is important for zome development as HDK/conductor API changes can break zome code. Explicitly tracking holonix versions alongside zome code fixes keeps local development environment versions synced with the relevant conductor and other dependencies.
The version of holonix is set in config.nix
as holonix.github.ref
.
The version is cached by the sha as holonix.github.sha256
.
To change the version of holonix:
- Change
holonix.github.sha256
slightly to bust nix’s internal cache - Attempt to drop into the nix shell, it will error with “hash mismatch”
- Set
holonix.github.ref
to the new version (can be a git commit, branch or tag) - Attempt to drop into the nix shell, it will error with “hash mismatch”
- Copy the “got:” hash for the new ref to
holonix.github.ref
- Attempt to drop into the nix shell, it should work now!
How to extend holonix
The easiest way to extend holonix is to add your own buildInputs
to default.nix
.
There will be some boilerplate that looks like this:
buildInputs = [ ]
++ holonix.shell.buildInputs
++ config.buildInputs
;
Add new buildInputs
by creating foo/default.nix
files in your project and calling them with holonix.pkgs.callPackage
like this:
buildInputs = [ ]
++ holonix.shell.buildInputs
++ config.buildInputs
# main test script
++ (holonix.pkgs.callPackage ./foo {
pkgs = holonix.pkgs;
}).buildInputs
Let’s break down what this is doing:
buildInputs = [ ]
sets up an empty list ofbuildInputs
(derivations to include in the shell)++ ...
appends...
to the list with++
operator++ ( ... ).buildInputs
executes( ... )
then appends thebuildInputs
property to the listholonix.pkgs.callPackage ./foo { pkgs = holonix.pkgs; }
reads and calls the contents of./foo/default.nix
as a function with thepkgs
argument set toholonix.pkgs
So we are passing the pkgs
from holonix
into ./foo/default.nix
(which is a function) and then appending the buildInputs
from the return to our top level buildInputs
.
For example, to include a new dependency on the elixir
language.
- Visit NixOS packages search and search for
elixir
- The package is there and has a link to the elixir homepage so we know it is what we are looking for
- Create a
./elixir/default.nix
file in our repository - Include
pkgs.elixir
in the returnedbuildInputs
- Use
callPackages
to append this to thebuildInputs
indefault.nix
Which looks like:
./elixir/default.nix
{ pkgs }:
{
buildInputs = [ pkgs.elixir ];
}
{ pkgs }:
a function with named argumentpkgs
{ buildInputs = ..; }
the function returns a key/value set with a keybuildInputs
and value...
./default.nix
buildInputs = [ ]
++ holonix.shell.buildInputs
++ config.buildInputs
++ (holonix.pkgs.callPackage ./elixir {
pkgs = holonix.pkgs
}).buildInputs
;
Using a local copy of holonix
Set holonix.use-github
to false
and holonix.local.path
to the local holonix path relative to the default.nix
file.
Using a fork of holonix
Set holonix.use-github
to true
and holonix.github.owner
to the owner of the fork and holonix.github.repo
to the fork’s repository name.
c.f. npm run
It is possible to extend your local default.nix
with ad-hoc bash scripts so that nix-shell --run foo
works like a generalised version npm run foo
.
From https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/run-script
In addition to the shell’s pre-existing
PATH
,npm run
addsnode_modules/.bin
to thePATH
provided to scripts. Any binaries provided by locally-installed dependencies can be used without thenode_modules/.bin
prefix.
Where npm run foo
adds binaries and packages managed by npm
to the PATH
, nix-shell --run foo
can add almost anything to PATH
.
Nix shell can also include one of several versions of node to facilitate writing npm run *
scripts predictably inside the nix shell.
We recommend keeping npm
inside the nix shell rather than trying to “npmify” nix shell. This is because the npm
ecosystem is sensitive to semver of node
itself.
Set a version of npm
that works for the holonixified project in the buildInputs
for ./node/default.nix
and then use it inside a nix shell across the whole team, rather than ad-hoc nvm
management.
See the node writeup for more info.
c.f. makefiles
It is possible to use makefiles in combination with nix shell.
Nix can even help ship make to platforms where it is not installed by default such as Mac OS X.
This combination is useful because:
make
is a very old and trusted standard for toolingnix-shell
can provide dependencies and environment variables thatmake
assumes
Adding a Makefile
to a project can help interoperability with other systems and human expectations.
The question is whether to “wrap make in nix” or “wrap nix in make”.
Should we run nix-shell --run 'make foo'
or make foo
with foo
running nix-shell
internally?
There are pros and cons to both approaches.
Wrapping nix in make make foo
:
- Familiar and interoperable
make *
syntax - Boot a nix shell for each command (slow but always fresh)
- Ensures correct nix shell and context for this project
- Much harder to audit if nix is not used consistently internally to
make
for all commands
Wrapping make in nix nix-shell --run 'make foo'
:
- New non-standard
nix-shell --run *
syntax - Optional re-use of nix shell (faster, maybe stale)
- Can make mistakes and use the wrong shell for a project
- Makefile does not work without implicit nix-shell
See the makefile writeup for more info.
How to manage releases with holonix
See the releases writeup.
Benefits
Ability to lock down all dependencies across teams, branches, commits, and operating systems.
Zome repositories can define the holonix (and therefore conductor) versioni they are compatible with per-commit.
Supports both local and url based usage like https://holochain.love
but for individual projects.
Can be extended through buildInputs
to include additional upstream dependencies and/or custom bash scripts.
Can be customised to integrate with conventional workflows such as release management.
Limitations
Requires initial setup of default.nix
and config.nix
boilerplate files.
Requires some basic nix knowledge to add buildInputs
.
Project-specific configuration is not portable to other projects.

Powers of 2
Before we get into powers of 2 (or the base 2 number system) we must first understand the number system we use: base 10. Take the number 125 for example:
As you can see, the numbers we use in our day-to-day lives are constructed using powers of 10.
Numbers in the 1's column are multiplied by 100 (1). Numbers in the 10's column are multiplied by 101 (10).
Numbers in the 100's column are multiplied by 102 (100). This process is repeated to create larger numbers,
with the sum of all columns representing the final number.
Binary (a base 2 number system) works in a similar fashion, but rather than multiply each number by powers of 10,
you multiply by powers of two. Let's look at the number 13 represented in binary:
Since we're only working with powers of 2, we only need two numbers to represent each column: a 0 or a 1. This on-off relationship (a binary relationship if you will) is the fundamental principle of computer technology. Columns are multiplied by 20, 21, 22, 23, and so on. These "powers of 2" values show up everywhere in computer technology, which is why it's paramount to understand them. Here's a graphical representation of each column's possible value in a full byte (8 bits, or 8 columns):

The Endless Summer A film review by Marty Mapes Copyright 1998 Marty Mapes
*** (out of 4) Brown loves to surf. It was his dream to spend one year surfing, switching hemispheres as the seasons changed, and circling the globe in the process. This documentary gave him the perfect excuse to fulfill his dream. The title refers to the year in his life when, for him, summer would never end.
Along the way, we learn a little about surfboards and waves. What types of waves are the best? Little curly ones that don't collapse. What does great surfing mean? Long rides.
But more interesting is the human story.
The tone of the film is a little staged and familiar at first. Brown seems like a big self-assured lug going for cheap clever laughs. He realizes he has a movie camera and sets up a couple of visual gags, as if that's what one is expected to do with a camera.  He stops TRYING so hard, which is for the best, because the adventure he is living is enough for the camera.
He arrives on the west coast of Africa with his two "stars" and companions. Blond, white, well-dressed, and carrying 10-foot surfboards, they stand out like a couple of sore thumbs. They catch some waves at a nearby beach and are mobbed by locals (adults and children) who have never seen a surfboard, much less a person riding one.  This first encounter is a real culture shock and it makes them grow up fast. What little "we're Americans so respect us" attitude they started with, goes away fast.
As they travel south along the coast, they gradually become more streetwise, more confident, and more mature.
In the most memorable scene of the film, the two surfers find the most perfect spot on the globe for surfing. It is a little beach in South Africa, miles away from the nearest civilization, only accessible by walking 20 minutes from the road across some sand dunes. The spot itself is pretty, but to the average viewer, it is no more amazing than any other spot on earth. To these surfers, it is paradise. Their enthusiastic declaration that it is the best surfing in the world makes us feel privileged to have seen it and sorry not to have been there in person (especially in light of what became of the spot . . . but more on that in the next review).
The movie is a favorable cross between a home movie and a serious documentary. Bruce Brown's personality is apparent from the pranks he pulls at the beginning, and through his more serious evaluations of friendships and waves. But the movie is also long enough and of a broad enough scope to be taken seriously. The mix is very effective. The storyteller's personal enthusiasm for the subject matter is contagious, and it makes both Brown and surfing much more interesting. In fact, it will probably make you want to try surfing.
Not many of us get to fulfill the kind of dream that Brown fulfilled by making this movie. He knew he was lucky to be making THE ENDLESS SUMMER, and by the end, he seems genuinely grateful for the chance. The year of the endless summer was clearly the best year of his life, and we got to see it all.
He was a wonderful tour guide for one of the most interesting tours on film.

Ruby+ImageMagickTM
Version 0.0.0
RMagick is a binding from Ruby to the ImageMagick TM image manipulation library. Here's how the ImageMagick home page describes ImageMagick:
ImageMagickTM... is a free software suite to create, edit, and compose bitmap images. It can read, convert and write images in a large variety of formats. Images can be cropped, colors can be changed, various effects can be applied, images can be rotated and combined, and text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves can be added to images and stretched and rotated.
ImageMagick offers a full range of image processing tools that provide the capability to:
RMagick is a complete interface to ImageMagick. Version 1.0.0 was released in February, 2003. Within its four major classes and 18 minor classes RMagick defines over 650 methods and 350 constants. RMagick exploits Ruby idioms such as blocks and iterators, Struct classes, symbols, ?- and !-suffixed methods, and exceptions.
This document describes Version 0.0.0 of RMagick. It is divided into 4 parts. The first is this page. The second part is a user's guide covering both RMagick and ImageMagick usage and conventions. The third part is a reference guide to the ImageList, Image, and Draw classes. This guide includes many examples. The fourth part covers Ruby Vector Graphics (RVG). RVG is a facade for Draw that provides a high-level API for scalable vector graphics. The RVG section includes a tutorial and complete reference documentation.
Accompanying the HTML documentation is a set of over 175 example RMagick programs. Each is a complete, stand-alone program that either creates an image from scratch or modifies an input image using one or more RMagick methods. The output images are used as illustrations in the HTML documentation. Throughout this document, click any example image to see the program that created it.
Names I've tried to follow existing Ruby conventions in this document. A class is identified by its name, which always starts with a
capital letter. An object is referred to by its class name, starting with a small letter. For example, a generic ImageList object is referred to as an
imagelist. Class methods are identified like this: Class.method
. Instance methods are identified like this:
Class#method
.
RMagick is implemented in the Magick module, therefore its constants are in the Magick namespace. However, for clarity I've omitted the
Magick::
prefix in most places in this document. You can use the include Magick
statement to add the constants and methods to
the Object namespace.
ImageMagick documentation Text that looks like this is quoted from the ImageMagick documentation.
Example programs and images All of the example images on these pages were created by RMagick. Click the image to see the program code. (You may need to configure your browser to allow JavaScript and pop-up windows.) All example images show the result of applying the method. Many example images show the "before" image as well. When the image is accompanied by this symbol mouse over the image to see the "before" version.
If you have a question that is not answered by these pages, you can post it at the Issues on GitHub.
Please report problems with RMagick installation and usage to the Issues at GitHub.
For quickest results, include the RMagick, ImageMagick and Ruby version numbers, along with a thorough description of the problem. RMagick will tell you both its version number and ImageMagick's version number. Simply bring up irb and run this command:
$ ruby -rrmagick -e "puts Magick::Long_version" This is RMagick 5.2.0 ($Date: 2009/12/20 02:33:33 $) Copyright (C) 2009 by Timothy P. Hunter Built with ImageMagick 7.1.1-8 Q16-HDRI x86_64 21129 https://imagemagick.org Built for ruby 3.2.2 Web page: https://rmagick.github.io/
(Using RubyGems? If you haven't added rubygems
to your RUBYOPT environment variable you may need to use this command instead:
ruby -rrmagick -e "puts Magick::Long_version"
.)
It will help a lot if you supply a small Ruby program that reproduces the problem. Don't forget to include any input image files!
Please remember I can't help with Ruby or ImageMagick installation and configuration problems. For help with Ruby, post your questions to
comp.lang.ruby
. For help with ImageMagick, you can post to the
ImageMagick Discourse Server.
I'm not an image processing guru, either, so I probably won't be able to help with questions about specific image formats and transformations. I will be glad, however, to intermediate between RMagick users and the ImageMagick developers.

ST NECTAN'S KIEVE AND THE LONELY SISTERS.
FAR up the deep and rocky vale of Trevillet, in the parish of Tintagel, [a] stands on a pile of rocks the little chapel of the good St Nectan. No holy man ever selected a more secluded, or a more lovely spot in which to pass a religious life. From the chapel rock you look over the deep valley full of trees. You see here and there the lovely trout-stream running rapidly towards the sea; and, opening in the distance, there rolls - the mighty ocean itself. Although this oratory is shut in amongst the woods, so as to be invisible to any one approaching it by land, until they are close upon it, it is plainly seen by the fishermen or by the sailor far off at sea; and in olden time the prayers of St Nectan were sought by all whose business was in the "deep waters."
The river runs steadily along within a short distance of St Nectan's Chapel, and then it suddenly leaps over the rock--a beautiful fall of water--into St Nectan's Kieve. This deep rock basin, brimming with the clearest water, overflows, and another waterfall carries the river to the lower level of the valley. Standing here within a circular wall of rocks, you see how the falling fluid has worked back the softer slate-rock until it has reached the harder masses, which are beautifully polished by the same agent. Mosses, ferns, and grasses decorate the fall, fringing every rock with a native drapery of the most exquisite beauty. Here is one of the wildest, one of the most untrained, and, at the same time, one of the most beautiful spots in Cornwall, full of poetry, and coloured by legend. Yet here comes prosaic man, and by one stroke of his every-day genius, he adds, indeed, a colour to the violet. You walk along the valley, through paths trodden out of the undergrowth, deviously wandering up hill, or down hill, as rock or tree has interposed. Many a spot of quiet beauty solicits you to loiter, and loitering, you feel that there are places from which the winds appear to gather poetry. You break the spell, or the ear, catching the murmur of the waters, dispels the illusions which have been created by the eye, and you wander forward, anxious to reach the holy " Kieve,"--to visit the saint's hermitage. Here, say you, is the place to hold "commune with Nature's works, and view her charms unrolled," when, lo, a well made door, painted lead colour, with a real substantial lock, bars your way, and Fancy, with everything that is holy, flies away before the terrible words which inform you that trespassers will be punished, and that the key can be obtained at ---------. Well was it that Mr Wilkie Collins gave "up the attempt to discover Nighton's Kieve ; " [b] for had he, when he had found it, discovered this evidence of man's greedy soul, it would have convinced him that the "evil genius of fairy mythology," who so cautiously hid "the nymph - of the waterfall," was no other than the farmer, who, as he told me, "owns the fee," and one who is resolved also to pocket the fee before any pilgrim can see the oratory and the waterfall of St Nectan. Of course this would have turned the placid current -of the thoughts of" the Rambler beyond Railways," which now flow so pleasantly, into a troubled stream of biliary bitterness.
St Nectan placed in the little bell-tower of his secluded chapel a silver bell, the notes of which were so clear and- penetrating that they could be heard far off at sea. When the notes came through the air, and fell on the ears of the seamen, they knew that St Nectan was about to pray for them, and they prostrated themselves before Heaven for a few minutes, and thus endeavoured to win the blessing.
St Nectan was on the bed of death. There was strife in the land. A severe struggle was going on between the Churchmen, and endeavours were being made to introduce a new faith.
The sunset of life gave to the saint the spirit of prophecy, and he told his weeping followers that the light of their religion would grow dim in the land; but that a spark would for ever live amidst the ashes, and that in due time it would kindle into a flame, and burn more brightly than ever. His silver bell, he said, should never ring for others than the true believer. He would enclose it in the rock of the Kieve; but when again the true faith revived, it should be recovered, and rung, to cheer once more the land.
One lovely summer evening, while the sun was slowly sinking towards the golden sea, St Nectan desired his attendants to carry him to the bank which overhung the "Kieve," and requested them to take the bell from the tower and bring it to him. There he lay for some time in silent prayer, waiting as if for a sign, then slowly raising himself from the bed on which he had been placed, he grasped the silver bell. He rang it sharply and clearly three times, and then he dropped it into the transparent waters of the Kieve. He watched it disappear, and then he closed his eyes in death. On receiving the bell the waters were troubled, but they soon became clear as before, and the bell was nowhere to be seen.
St Nectan died, and two strange ladies from a foreign land came and took possession of his oratory, and all that belonged unto the holy man. They placed--acting, as it was believed, on the wishes of the saint himself--his body, all the sacramental plate, and other sacred treasures, in a large oak chest. They turned the waters of the fall aside, and dug a grave in the river bed, below the Kieve, in which they placed this precious chest. The waters were then returned to their natural course, and they murmur ever above the grave of him who loved them. The silver bell was concealed in the Kieve, and the saint with all that be. longed to his holy office rested beneath the river bed. The oratory was dismantled, and the two ladies, women evidently of high birth, chose it for their dwelling. Their seclusion was perfect. "Both appeared to be about the same age, and both were inflexibly taciturn. One was never seen without the other. If they ever left the house, they only left it to walk in the more unfrequented parts of the wood; they kept no servant; they never had a visitor; no living soul but themselves ever crossed the door of their cottage." [c] The berries of the wood, a few roots which they cultivated, with snails gathered from the rocks and walls, and fish caught in the stream, served them for food. Curiosity was excited; the mystery which hung around this solitary pair became deepened by the obstinate silence which they observed in every~ thing relating to themselves. The result of all this was an anxious endeavour, on the part of the superstitious and ignorant peasantry, to learn their secret. All was now conjecture, and the imagination commonly enough filled in a wild picture : devils or angels, as the case might be, were seen ministering to the solitary ones. Prying eyes were upon them, but the spies could glean no knowledge. Week, month, year passed by, and ungratified curiosity was dying through want of food, when it was discovered that one of the ladies had died. The peasantry went in a body to the chapel; no one forbade their entering it now. There sat a silent mourner leaning over the placid lace of her dead sister.  The dead body was eventually removed, the living sister making no sign, and they left her in her solitude alone. Days passed on; no one heard of no one probably inquired after, the lonely one. At last a wandering child, curious as children are, clambered to the window of the- cell and looked in. There sat the lady; her handkerchief was on the floor, and one hand hung strangely, as if endeavouring to pick it up, but powerless to do so. The child told its story--the people again flocked to the chapel, and they found one sister had followed the other. The people buried the last beside the first, and they left no mark to tell us where, unless the large flat stone which lies in the valley, a short distance from the foot of the fall, and beneath which, I was told, "some great person was buried," may be the covering of their tomb. No traces -of the history of these solitary women have ever been discovered.'
Centuries have passed away, and still the legends of the buried bell and treasure are preserved. Some long time since a party of men resolved to blast the "Kieve," and examine it for the silver bell. They were miners, and their engineering knowledge, though rude, was sufficient to enable them to divert the course of the river above the falls, and thus to leave the "Kieve" dry for them to work on when they had emptied it, which was an easy task. The "borer" now rung upon the rock, holes were pierced, and, being charged, they were blasted. The result was, however, anything but satisfactory, for the rock remained intact. Still they persevered, until at length a voice was heard amidst the ring of the iron tools in the holes of the rock. Every hand was stayed, every face was aghast, as they heard distinctly the ring of the silver bell, followed by a clear solemn voice proclaiming, "The child is not yet born who shall recover this treasure."
The work was stopped, and the river restored to its old channel, over which it will run undisturbed until the day of which St Nectan prophesied shall arrive.
When, in the autumn of 1863, I visited this lovely spot, my guide, the proprietor, informed me that very recently a gentleman residing, I believe, in London, dreamed that an angel stood on a little bank of pebbles, forming a petty island, at the foot of a waterfall, and pointing to a certain spot, told him to search there and he would find gold and a mummy. This gentleman told his dream to a friend, who at once declared the place indicated to be St Nectan's waterfall. Upon this, the dreamer visited the West, and, upon being led by the owner of the property to the fall, he at once recognised the spot on which the angel stood.
A plan was then and there arranged by which a search might be again commenced, it being thought that as an angel had indicated the spot, the time for the recovery of the treasure had arrived.
Let us hope that the search may be deferred, lest the natural beauties of the spot should be destroyed by the meddling of men, who can threaten trespassers,--fearing to lose a sixpence,--and who have already endeavoured to improve on nature, by cutting down some of the rock and planting rhododendrons.
The Rev. R. S. Hawker, of Morwenstow, has published in his "Echoes of Old Cornwall" a poem on this tradition, which, as it is but little known, and as it has the true poetic ring, I transcribe to adorn the pages of my Appendix X.
[a] TINTAGEL. is the usual name. Gilbert, in his "Parochial History," has it "DUNDAGELL, alias DYNDAGELL, alias BOSITHNEY;" in "Doomsday-book" it is called "DUNECHEINE." Tonkin writes "Dindagel or Daundagel," and sometimes DUNGIOGEL. "A King Nectan, or St Nectan, is said to have built numerous churches in several parts of Scotland, as well as in other parts of the kingdom of the Northern Picts."--Wilson's Prehistoric Annals of Scotland.
[b] It is called indifferently Nectan, Nathan, Nighton, or Knighton's Kieve.
[c] Rambles beyond Railways. By Wilkie Collins. Mr Collins was curiously misled by those who told him the tradition. The building which these strange solitary women Inhabited was St Nectan's, or, as he and many others write it, St Nighton's, Chapel, and not a cottage. They died, as Mr Collins describes it: but either he, or those from whom he learned the tale, has filled in the picture from imagination. I perceive, on referrIng to Mr Walter White's admirable little book, "A Londoner's Walk to the Land's End, that he has made the same mistake about the cottage.

The First Wives Club (1996) A film review by Edwin Jahiel Copyright 1996 Edwin Jahiel
By Edwin Jahiel
THE FIRST WIVES CLUB * Directed by Hugh Wilson.Written by Robert Harling fromthe novel by Olivia Goldsmith. Photography, Donald Thorin. Editing, John Bloom. Production design, Peter Larkin. Music Marc Shaiman. Producer, Scott Rudin. Cast: Bette Midler (Brenda), Goldie Hawn (Elise), Diane Keaton (Annie), Dan Hedaya (Morty), Stockard Channing (Cynthia), James Naughton (Gil), Heather Locklear (Gil's new wife), Sarah Jessica Parker (Shelly), Stephen Collins (Aaron), Marcia Gay Harden (Dr. Leslie Rosen), Maggie Smith (Gunilla), Victor Garber (Bill Atchison), Elizabeth Berkley (Phoebe LaVelle), Bronson Pinchot (Duarto Feliz), Jennifer Dundas (Chris). A Paramount release. 105 minutes. Rated PG.
There are three opening moves to this movie. The comic-book design of the opening credits; in her palatial penthouse, Cynthia who jumps to her death from the balcony; a flashback to four young women, close friends who are happily graduating from Middlebury College in 1969.
Cynthia's tiny sequence is the only serious one and arguably the best in a movie botched by its comic-book treatment of a major subject.
In the first of a string of improbabilities, the Middlebury graduates, while so close to each other, have not met in ages, even though they all lived in New York City. It takes Cynthia's funeral services to reunite the surviving three , Keaton, Midler and Hawn. They are now 45 or 46. If you believe their official birthdates, the three actresses are nearing 51.
In another forced ploy (it's in the book) all of them were abandoned by their husbands for younger chicks. This is what had happened to Cynthia too. In additional inventions, all three women had helped their husbands attain wealth and status; all three men are creeps; all their new patooties are flawed.
Keaton is in a trial separation.  Hawn's ex has the cheek to ask her for alimony.
To this coarse, too-much-is-too-much mess are added, for no really valid reason, Midler's son and his Bar Mitzvah, and Keaton's daughter who proudly announces that she is lesbian.
The ladies are seething. When each receives a letter from the grave (Cynthia's),the trio decide to exact revenge. In ways too unlikely to analyze, they succeed.
The actresses do what they can with their parts, but none of them is likable in a movie where nobody is. With the minor exceptions of friends recruited to help the wives: Maggie Smith as a sly "grande dame" and Bronson Pinchot, "one of the nine worst decorators in Manhattan" who also lends a hand. With the exception of tongue-in-cheek Smith, the acting ranges from broad to very broad, the latter fitting best Pinchot and Sarah Jessica Parker. There is not even token dimensionality to the three husbands, with Victor Garber (as Hawn's ex) being icomprehensively passive.
The film's subject is no joke but is treated as such yet there are few successful one-liners or gags --save for a funny scam sequence at Christie's auction house. While conceived as a farce, the film is not handled as a farce. Sluggish, dull, doing nothing for feminism, it limits it would-be message by limiting its arena to a moneyed milieu. In the wrap-up the ladies use their new wealth to open (in an artificial attempt to flatter female audiences) a women's crisis center. They throw a high society party which is like the opening of a ritzy restaurant or a fashion show. There's a dumb, cop-out reconciliation of one couple. The last scene has the three women doing an embarrassingly silly musical comedy song and dance number.
Director Hugh Wilson has made "Police Academy," (hmm), "Rustler's Rhapsody" (ugh), "Burglar" (ugh), "Guarding Tess" (good). Scripter Robert Harling wrote "Steel Magnolias" from his play, co-wrote the funny "Soapdish" and was one 7 writers on "Sister Act."
If you want to see a delightful film about three women who revolt against male oppression, try the 1980 "9 to 5."

template <class RandomAccessIterator> void push_heap(RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator last); template <class RandomAccessIterator, class StrictWeakOrdering> void push_heap(RandomAccessIterator first, RandomAccessIterator last, StrictWeakOrdering comp);
The two versions of push_heap differ in how they define whether one element is less than another. The first version compares objects using operator<, and the second compares objects using a function object comp. The postcondition for the first version is that is_heap(first, last) is true, and the postcondition for the second version is that is_heap(first, last, comp) is true.
int main() { int A[10] = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }; make_heap(A, A + 9); cout << "[A, A + 9) = "; copy(A, A + 9, ostream_iterator<int>(cout, " ")); push_heap(A, A + 10); cout << endl << "[A, A + 10) = "; copy(A, A + 10, ostream_iterator<int>(cout, " ")); cout << endl; }
The output is

[1] A heap is a particular way of ordering the elements in a range of random access iterators [f, l). The reason heaps are useful (especially for sorting, or as priority queues) is that they satisfy two important properties. First, *f is the largest element in the heap. Second, it is possible to add an element to a heap (using push_heap), or to remove *f, in logarithmic time. Internally, a heap is a tree represented as a sequential range. The tree is constructed so that that each node is less than or equal to its parent node.

Ex-cop husband of murder accused Joanne Threshie says she 'doesn't have bad bone in her body'
William Threshie resigned from the police in June 2018 after serving for eight years.
by Wilma ReilyMurder accused Joanne Threshie’s husband told a jury yesterday that fellow police officers gave him sensitive information about a break-in at his home.
But he denied deliberately passing it on to his wife, who is on trial for the murder of Frederick McGettigan, 51, in Bishopbriggs, near Glasgow, on August 6, 2017.
Mum-of-three Threshie, 37, also from Bishopbriggs, is accused of giving her cousin Kirk McIntyre, who is serving life for the murder, Frederick’s name and address, and inciting and encouraging him to perpetrate serious violence.
It is alleged she did so because she believed Frederick had broken into her home and stolen items.
William Threshie, 37, who resigned from the police in June 2018 after serving for eight years, told the High Court in Glasgow his wife overheard him speaking about Frederick on the phone.
He said she was “heartbroken” but not angry after the break-in and added: “Joanne doesn’t have a bad bone in her body.”
Threshie denies murder.
The trial continues.

[gecode-users] Gecode/J and time stability
Guillaume Richaud

Fri Nov 2 11:05:08 CET 2007
Hi,
I tried to solve some problems with Gecode/J and the time spend to solve
the same instance seems to be quite unstable. In the example
QueensJavaPropagator, i removed Distinct constraints. So, the solver
just had to instantiate each variable to find a solution.
Solving 20 times the same instance:
nb vars=100, min=18ms, max=216ms, av=36ms
nb vars=500, min=371ms, max=3581ms, av=1544ms
nb vars=1000, min=2170ms, max=7333ms, av=6236ms
And i observe a strange phenomena: time variations are similar at each run.
For example with nb vars=600
Run 1 Run2
1st: 825ms / 761ms
2nd: 1853ms / 1744ms
3rd: 1391ms / 1308ms
4th: 2890ms / 2751ms
5th: 1422ms / 1399ms
6th: 4141ms / 3963ms
7th: 963ms / 945ms
8th: 5073ms / 4775ms
9th: 903ms / 862ms
10th: 5031ms / 4415ms
Do you know what is the cause of the problem ?
Thank,
Guillaume
ps: I also tried to force garbage collector before solving...

{{site.user_description}}
Other than styling web pages with bootstrap, I was once a 2D designer and is familiar with Photoshop.
Java and Javascript is my most used language. I am also exposed to different scripting and programming languages during my study. They are listed below.
I have used different tools to facilitate my development. Atom is my favourite editor. I have also used different IDEs such as Andriod Studios or Visual Studio according to the situation.
I have been learning and experimenting with different things in the field of Computer Science.


 The crust was perfect, and the filling was perfect, and the local grocery store even sells HP sauce (in its “ethnic foods” section, no less). So perfect. I had one cold for breakfast, which I thought as I ate it seemed a bad idea and the best idea all at once.
Pasties are the final dish of the three (British) meat dishes that I’ve now mastered. The other two: sausage rolls and shepherd’s pie. So I can say, with gritted teeth, that yes, I will eat lamb or pork or beef. I am not a picky eater! (Reader: I am.)
I should note here, I suppose, that I used ground beef in my pasties. I knew that I couldn’t handle eating steak. Too gristly. Too chewy. Too muscly. So yes, I will eat lamb or pork or beef, served in a traditional dish of my people, as long as that meat is ground.
I tried to cook a rack of lamb tonight. It’s my second attempt to do so. The first try came out of the oven virtually raw, and even though I extended the cooking time tonight well beyond what any recipe called for, they were still too rare for my taste. I threw the chops into a skillet and gave them a quick sear, and that seemed to do the trick.
Well, truth be told, I’ve never forgotten. And I don’t hate lamb chops per se.   I had a memorable fight with my aunt when I was 9 or so about whether or not I should be eating the fat of the lamb chop. She insisted I should. I insisted I’d barf. I put a far too fatty piece of meat in my mouth tonight and gagged. Run and play more, little lamb.
I have a list where I write down “Meal Ideas That Don’t Suck” – these are the recipes I’ve nailed. I have another list where I track “Meal Ideas to Work On.” Rack of lamb has been on the latter for a while now.  I’m not going to even try. It’s gross.
Grind me up some lamb and cook it with carrots and peas and smother it with mashed potatoes. I’ll eat it all that way. I promise.


ID7 is downloadable in two forms, within which you'll find the following directories and files, logically grouping common resources and providing both compiled and minified variations.
Once downloaded, unzip the compressed folder to see the structure of (the compiled) ID7.
The ID7 source code download includes the precompiled CSS, JavaScript, images and font assets, along with source Less, JavaScript, and documentation. More specifically, it includes the following and more:
{% highlight bash %} id7/ ├── less/ ├── js/ ├── fonts/ ├── images/ ├── dist/ │ ├── css/ │ ├── js/ │ ├── fonts/ │ ├── images/ │ └── templates/ └── docs/ {% endhighlight %}The less/

is one of the three fundamental building blocks used to define forms in Angular, along with Control and ControlArray. ControlArray can also contain other controls, but is of variable length.Example (live demo)


QUANTUM TELEPORTATION
[Article 1]: Japanese Researchers Teleport Quantum Information into a Diamond
Quantum teleportation is very real. In fact, researchers have already teleported quantum information across cities and even into space. Though this sounds like an Avengers Endgame plot device, quantum teleportation has a host of powerful applications in the near future, mainly in the emergence of quantum technologies (https://interestingengineering.com/what-will-quantumcomputing- change-exactly). Recently, researchers from something very cool with quantum information. The team from Yokohama National University have managed teleport quantum information securely into one of the hardest structures on the planet, the diamond. The breakthrough could help us better share and store sensitive information.
[Article 2]: Physicists Appear to "Reverse Time" in a Quantum Computer
Using a quantum computer, scientists appear to have reversed the entropy of a two-qubit and a three-qubit system, opening new avenues of error correction in quantum computers. Scientists appear to have “reversed time” in a two-bit and a three-bit quantum computer after calculating the probability of the phenomenon occurring naturally in a localized electron. Reversing The Entropy of a Two-Qubit System . Scientists in Russia, Switzerland, and the US have come together to apparently reverse the entropy of a two-qubit quantum computer with 85% accuracy and about 50% accuracy in a three-qubit system, though they note that the remaining inaccuracy is due to the imperfections in the quantum computer itself, not their algorithm.

This repository contains a number of front-end interview questions that can be used when vetting potential candidates. It is by no means recommended to use every single question here on the same candidate (that would take hours). Choosing a few items from this list should help you vet the intended skills you require.
Note: Keep in mind that many of these questions are open-ended and could lead to interesting discussions that tell you more about the person’s capabilities than a straight answer would.

Divers salvage 900 bottles of rare French cognac and liqueur from Swedish shipwreck
by The LocalA ship carrying French cognac to Tzar Nicholas II's Russia was sunk in the Baltic Sea more than 100 years ago. The cargo has now been salvaged.
On May 19th, 1917, at the height of World War One, Swedish steamer S/S Kyros set its course to Petrograd (today known as St Petersburg).
It was delivering 50 cases of cognac and 15 cases of liqueur from France to Russia through neutral Swedish territory.
But just off Åland island in the Baltic Sea, it was stopped and checked by German submarine UC-58, whose captain decided to sink the steamer because the alcohol was considered an illegal contraband product.
The crew were transferred to another ship and were able to return home to Sweden safely – but the cognac and liqueur was left at the bottom of the sea.
Until last month, that is.
After years of preparation, Swedish salvage hunters Ocean X Team and Icelandic iXplorer teamed up with international vessel Deepsea Worker to retrieve the bottles.
"The importance of this event cannot be overemphasized – it's not only a find of rare cognac and liqueur but also a part of history of the former imperial Russia," said the Ocean X Team in a statement.
The wreck was discovered in 1999, but has been damaged by fishing trawls and it was long too dangerous for divers to access it.
But using Deepsea Worker's special underwater robots, the teams managed to salvage the cargo of around 600 bottles of De Haartman & Co cognac and 300 bottles of Benedictine liqueur.
The cognac is no longer in production and Benedictine, created more than 500 years ago by French monks, is today owned by Bacardi.
"[We] are excited to hear about the find and are eager to learn if the product has been preserved for the duration of the stay under water," said Petra Caspolin, Nordic marketing manager at Bacardi, in a statement.
Peter Lindberg, one of the divers involved in the treasure hunt, told The Local that they did not yet know what would happen to the bottles, how much they could be worth or when and how they could be sold.
A couple of them have been sent to Sweden and Moscow for analysis.

About The chat app
Suppose you have to develop a program for chatting application. The following functions have been requested by your Head (The shopkeeper):
1: The program should allow the user to select and chat with that person different items present in that shop.
2: The user should be able to see the items that he has bought and print his total bill on the screen
3: The program should not end until the user specifies it to end. (The user should press 'q' to quit the program)

I've been focusing more on Jetpack development this quarter, but will still be posting performance round-ups regularly here. In fact, here's one now:
- Taras Glek continues to blog his progress on improving the binaries we ship, talking about how reordering binaries improves memory use as well as load time, leveraging GCC's PGO for fast startup, and finally about Icegrind, his Valgrind plugin that generates a log of the order of access to mmap'd files.
- Are we fast yet?! The answer to that question, at least in regards to JavaScript performance test suites, can be found at AreWeFastYet.com, where you'll see graphs that show Firefox trunk's performance relative to Google's V8 and Apple's Nitro on the Sunspider and V8Bench tests. I won't spoil the answer for you, you'll have to go check it out for yourself.
- I finished and checked-in my changes to the Tinderbox Pushlog, adding a new feature that provides at-a-glance comparison in performance test results between any two pushes on the page (screenshot). It will go live next time Marcus pushes changes out to his server. But he's not online at the moment, so I don't know when this feature will go live. Heh, it went live moments after I published this post.
- Heather Arthur and Clint Talbert are working on a project to add performance data to Addons.mozilla.org for extensions. They're starting with the effect of a given extension on Firefox startup time. Follow along on the bug, or watch project Dirty Harry on Github.
- Improving the AMO extension validator: AMO scans uploaded extensions and reports problems to the authors. For performance best-practices, we should at least warn the authors if possible if their add-on is doing something that'll make Firefox slow. This bug is for warning about add-ons that don't have their content in a JAR file. If you see any thing in the best practices guide that can be statically detected, please file a bug for it here. If you have any other performance-related bugs, blog posts, anecdotes or other tomfoolery, post it in the comments!

This middleware provides a debug view of web pages produced by the Pages middleware.
To use this middleware add it to the OWIN pipeline then run your code and request pages from your website but include debug=true in the query string of the page.
When you do this, instead of rendering the page itself, the Debug Middleware will intercept the request and render a page showing how that page would be rendered, including how the data binding context will be established etc.
builder.Register(ninject.Get<OwinFramework.Pages.DebugMiddleware.DebugInfoMiddleware>()) .As("Pages debug");
You can view debug information for any page that is produced by the Pages middleware by adding a query string parameter to the page URL. Below are some examples:
http://mywebsite.com/folder/page1?debug=true http://mywebsite.com/folder/page1?debug=xml http://mywebsite.com/folder/page1?debug=json http://mywebsite.com/folder/page1?debug=html http://mywebsite.com/folder/page1?debug=svg
If you write custom regions, layouts, components etc, you can include more detailed information in the debug output by overriding a protected method of the base class called PopulateDebugInfo<T>.

WAVELAN
Section: Linux Programmer's Manual (4)
Updated: 2013-09-04

NAME
wavelan - AT&T GIS WaveLAN ISA device driver
SYNOPSIS
insmod wavelan_cs.o [io=B,B..] [ irq=I,I..] [name=N,N..]
DESCRIPTION
This driver is obsolete:
it was removed from the kernel in version 2.6.35.
wavelan
is the low-level device driver for the NCR / AT&T / Lucent
WaveLAN ISA
and Digital (DEC)
RoamAbout DS
wireless ethernet adapter.
This driver is available as a module or
might be compiled in the kernel.
This driver supports multiple cards
in both forms (up to 4) and allocates the next available ethernet
device (eth0..eth#) for each card found, unless a device name is
explicitly specified (see below).
This device name will be reported
in the kernel log file with the MAC address, NWID and frequency used
by the card.
Parameters
This section apply to the module form (parameters passed on the
insmod(8)
command line).
If the driver is included in the kernel, use the
ether=IRQ,IO,NAME
syntax on the kernel command line.
- io
-
Specify the list of base address where to search for wavelan cards
(setting by dip switch on the card).
If you don't specify any io
address, the driver will scan 0x390 and 0x3E0 addresses, which might
conflict with other hardware...
- irq
-
Set the list of irq that each wavelan card should use (the value is
saved in permanent storage for future use).
- name
-
Set the list of name to be used for each wavelan cards device (name
used by
ifconfig(8)).
Wireless extensions
Use
iwconfig(8)
to manipulate wireless extensions.
NWID (or domain)
Set the network ID
[0
to
FFFF]
or disable it
[off].
As the NWID is stored in the card Permanent Storage Area, it will be
reuse at any further invocation of the driver.
Frequency & channels
For the 2.4GHz 2.00 Hardware, you are able to set the frequency by
specifying one of the 10 defined channels
(2.412,
2.422, 2.425, 2.4305, 2.432, 2.442, 2.452, 2.460, 2.462
or
2.484)
or directly by its value.
The frequency is changed immediately and
permanently.
Frequency availability depends on the regulations...
Statistics spy
Set a list of MAC addresses in the driver (up to 8) and get the last
quality of link for each of those (see
iwspy(8)).
/proc/net/wireless
status
is the status reported by the modem.
Link quality
reports the quality of the modulation on the air (direct sequence
spread spectrum) [max = 16].
Level
and
Noise
refer to the signal level and noise level [max = 64].
The
crypt discarded packet
and
misc discarded packet
counters are not implemented.
Private ioctl
You may use
iwpriv(8)
to manipulate private ioctls.
Quality and level threshold
Enable you the define the quality and level threshold used by the
modem (packet below that level are discarded).
Histogram
This functionality makes it possible to set a number of
signal level intervals and
to count the number of packets received in each of those defined
intervals.
This distribution might be used to calculate the mean value
and standard deviation of the signal level.
Specific notes
This driver will fail to detect some
non-NCR/ATT&T/Lucent
Wavelan cards.
If this happens for you, you must look in the source code on
how to add your card to the detection routine.
Some of the mentioned features are optional.
You may enable to disable
them by changing flags in the driver header and recompile.
