A work (novel, movie, whatever) only gets the story-behind-the-story treatment when it's been part of conventional knowledge for so long that the audience gets all the little in-jokes, can appreciate the asides, the irony, etc. To look at it another way, a work only gets the story-behind-the-story treatment when it's been overdeveloped in so many other directions that burrowing into the myth of its own origins is about all that's left. This is what Shakespeare in Love does for Romeo and Juliet, what Love and War tries to do for Farewell to Arms. This is also what the 13th Warrior tries to do for Beowulf--to tell it from the POV of a minor/forgotten participant in the 'actual' event, of which Beowulf is a loose retelling. The thing is, however, Shakespeare in Love had the advantage of coming right on the heels of 199x's Romeo + Juliet, meaning the play was still fresh in our minds, we were already piqued for a little more iambic pentameter, please. The 13th Warrior doesn't have such an advantage: disregarding the recent sci-fiBeowulf (not released in America),there's been nothing to leave us hungry for Old English, mead, all that. Writer/director Michael Crichton (along with Diehard's John McTiernan) was likely aware of this poor timing, too, so, for the big screen, this adaptation of his historical novel Eaters of the Dead draws more on, say, the enthematic swordplay of Braveheart, the 'good fight' against-all-odds feel of Starship Troopers, and, further back, all the Dungeons & Dragons-type movies (Flesh and Blood(1985), Excaliber, etc.) which also manage to assemble a rag-tag group into some honorable world-saving campaign. In The 13th Warrior, that rag-tag group is composed of twelve Viking volunteers, plus the initially-reluctant exiled Arabian poet Ibn Fadlan (Antonio Banderas). The world this group has to save is a village in Scandinavia. What they have to save the village from are creatures of legend--eaters of the dead. Which is to say transgressors of one of our most fundamental taboos: cannibalism. And, when fighting cannibals, you're automatically the good guy, which is how Crichton manages to erase any raping and pillaging Eric the Viking-type associations, making the campaigners honorable. In addition, though--or, to really establish the bad guys' inhumanity--the bad guys are never really personified, which makes Ibn Fadlen and Co.'s series of skirmishes with them impersonal, as it would be with a mass of animals. And this isn't necessarily a weakness, but more of an identification trick: the bad guys are as dark and mysterious to us as they are to Ibn Fadlan and Co. It does have a flipside, though: when the battle gets pared down to the individual level, it doesn't have that same finality you get with, say, Conan and Thulsa-Doom. Meaning we're not sure it's over when it is, in fact, over. If that was the only flaw, The 13th Warrior could possibly be a great movie. But there's more. There's the castle-intrigue in the opening sequence, which establishes so little that it's never mentioned again. There's Ibn Fadlan's love interest in the village they're saving, which feels tacked on. There's Antonio Banderas playing a devout Muslim. There's some unwisely foregrounded translation difficulty (Old English to Latin, then Latin to Arabian, which is cinematically rendered in English, etc) which slows things down considerably. On the plus side, though, there is a lot of flashy AD&D-type sword and horseplay, there's an ancient woman who talks with Yoda-syntax ('Seek you me?'), and there's even something of a transformation in Ibn Fadlan, which allows him to put pen to paper again, write that epic. More than all that, though, what The 13th Warrior leaves you with is a distinct nostalgia, not for a period in history that's lost, but for a period in history that never really was, at least as it's presented on-screen. Which is to say it does get us to buy its illusion, if only for a while. (c) 1999 Stephen Graham Jones

- Molecular Diagnostics – Healthcare providers involved in areas such as Prevention, Personalized Healthcare, Disease Profiling, and Point of Need testing
- Applied Testing – Industry and government clients who utilize molecular technologies in areas such as forensics, food safety testing, and veterinary diagnostics
- Pharma – Biotech and pharmaceutical firms that conduct molecular testing for drug discovery, clinical development, and translational medicine efforts
- Academia – Researchers who investigate disease pathways and mechanisms, and in certain cases use their findings to develop drug targets and/or associated products In 2015, the Molecular Diagnostics segment accounted for 50% of company revenues, with the other 50% split up among the other groups.
Value Proposition
Qiagen offers four primary value propositions: innovation, accessibility, risk reduction, and brand/status.
The company has embraced innovation from the outset, revolutionizing molecular biology. It introduced the first “Plasmid Kit”, which decreased the amount of time necessary for plasmid (DNA molecules from bacteria) preparation from 2-3 days to two hours. Furthermore, its automated systems enable customers to transform raw biological samples into valuable information.
The company creates accessibility by offering a wide variety of options. It has acquired numerous firms over the years, adding several new capabilities to its portfolio. Its products now have a number of applications, including life science research, veterinary and food safety, forensics, infectious diseases, and personalized healthcare. This advantage broadens its customer base.
The company reduces risk by maintaining several quality and safety standards. It utilizes the Globally Harmonized System (GHS), which regulates the labeling and classification of chemicals on material Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and product labels. It has also eaned Quality Management System certificates for the following standards:
- EN ISO 9001:2008
- ISO 13485: 2003 CMDCAS
- EN ISO 13485: 2012
- EC Directive 98/79/EC The company has established a powerful brand as a result of its success. It operates in more than 35 sites in over 25 countries. Its offers over 500 core products to more than 500,000 customers in over 130 countries. It estimates that over one billion biological samples have been analyzed or prepared using its technologies in labs worldwide. Lastly, Qiagen has won many honors, including “Top Employer 2015 in Germany” by the Top Employers Institute, the Life Science Industry Award for the best Nucleic Acid Purification and Separation Products (2011), the “Best Innovator” Award from A.T. Kearney and WirtschaftsWoche (2011), the 2010 Health & Wellness Trailblazer Award from the Alliance for Workplace Excellence, and the “Company of the Year“ Award from ACQ Magazine (2008).
Channels
Qiagen’s main channel is its direct sales and marketing team, which operates in offices worldwide; it also acquires customers through its website. The company promotes its offering through its social media pages, publications such as catalogs, scientific seminars, direct marketing campaigns, personalized electronic newsletters, advertising, and attendance of trade shows and conferences.
Customer Relationships
Qiagen’s customer relationship is primarily of a self-service nature. Customers utilize its products while having limited interaction with employees. The company’s website features a wide variety of self-help resources, including videos, webinars, virtual demos, instrument user manuals, application/protocol sheets, product documentation, product selection guides, kit handbooks, certificates of analysis, and answers to frequently asked questions.
Despite this orientation, there is a personal assistance component. Qiagen maintains a technical service support offering that enables current and potential clients to ask questions and provide feedback to M.Sc. and Ph.D. scientists at the firm. Customers may use phone or e-mail.
Key Activities
Qiagen’s business model entails designing, developing, and manufacturing molecular sample and assay technologies.
Key Partners
Qiagen utilizes suppliers for components and raw materials (chemicals, biologics, plastics, and raw separation media). The company has established several partnerships and license agreements with private firms, research institutions, and non-governmental organizations worldwide. Its collaborations with private firms include the development of integrated solutions with top manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and diagnostics sectors for mutual benefit. Qiagen’s specific partners include Tokai Pharmaceuticals and Array BioPharma.
Key Resources
Qiagen’s main resources are its human resources. They include over 1,000 employees in the research and development department who work in nine centers of excellence on three continents. They also include experienced sales and marketing staff, many of whom are scientists with degrees in molecular biology or similar areas. Lastly, the company places a high priority on intellectual property, with over 1,270 issued patents and over 900 pending patent applications.
Cost Structure
Qiagen has a value-driven structure, aiming to provide a premium proposition through frequent enhancements to its product offerings. Its biggest cost driver is cost of sales, a variable expense. Other major drivers are in the areas of sales/marketing, research/development, and administration, all fixed costs.
Revenue Streams
Qiagen has one revenue stream: the revenues it generates from sales of its sample and assay technologies. Pricing for its products varies greatly – for example, the cost of DNA preparation kits can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.

The architecture and design review process analyzes the architecture and design from a security perspective. If you have just completed the design, the design documentation can help you with this process. Regardless of how comprehensive your design documentation is, you must be able to decompose your application and be able to identify key items, including trust boundaries, data flow, entry points, and privileged code. You must also know the physical deployment configuration of your application. Pay attention to the design approaches you have adopted for those areas that most commonly exhibit vulnerabilities. This guide refers to these as application vulnerability categories.
You review the design of your application in relation to the target deployment environment and the associated security policies. You also consider the restrictions imposed by the underlying infrastructure-layer security.
You review the approach to critical areas in your application, including authentication, authorization, input validation, exception management, and other areas. You can use the application vulnerability categories as a roadmap and to ensure that you do not miss any key areas during the review.
You walk through the physical tiers and logical layers of your application. This means analyzing your Web server, application server and database server, as well as your presentation, business and data access layers.

Ebay: Usability Test - mobile size
- Basis of this site is an - Ecommerce Website.
Criteria Overview
- Find out how three users ( same users from previous usability test) can navigate chosen
site
https://www.ebay.com/ and test them on time completion and relatively amount of
taps to buying and selling on the site.
View Test-script
- How easy it was to buy an item
- Time Spent
- ease of navigation ( amount of taps average)
- How easy it was to Sell an item
- Time Spent
- ease of navigation ( amount of taps)
- Collective overview on possiible improvments
User 1:
-- Buying experience --
- Time Spent
- The user again had a relative easy time buying an item, it just took less than 2
minutes to go from the search bar and find exactly what he/she
wanted.
- ease of navigation ( amount of clicks)
- The user took around around 15 clicks no issues what so ever
-- Selling experience --
- Time Spent
- Again an experienced ebay user he had just
spent just 3 mins and knew exactly where to go
- ease of navigation ( avg amount of taps)
- The user was under 20 taps because the user was given the option to auto-fill
in details when he was selling a similar item.
User 2
-- Buying experience --
- Time Spent
- As having buying experience User 2 also took around 2 minuits or less to buy an item
- ease of navigation ( amount of taps)
- Straight forward, the search bar was the first thing the User 2 found and tapped on 12 taps before checking out.
-- Selling experience --
- Time Spent
- User 2 spent a few seconds looking for the "sell" button based on previous experience 10 mins to sell an item
- ease of navigation ( amount of taps)
- The user took about 30 taps to complete putting an item for sale.
Again, user was given the option to auto-fill beased on a similar item being sold and could modofify any area needed afterward.
User 3
-- Buying experience --
- Time Spent
- Took about 2 mins which was very similar to all the other users times.
- ease of navigation ( amount of taps)
- Due to how fimilar User 3 was it took around 12 clicks and told me that the formatting and how centralized
the page was helped in buying an item, especially "buy button " highlighted in blue.
-- Selling experience --
- Time Spent
- User 3 also seemed to take a bit of time locating the "sell" button 12 -15 mins Overall.
- ease of navigation ( amount of taps)
- User 3 was also greeted with an auto-fill so around 35 taps before he completed the sell item. User 3 mention how handy and usefull
the "auto-fill" option was and enjoyed the feature a lot.
Overview
-
Basically each user notified me they had a more effective time once they found out where
everything was placed. The most troublesome location to find was the "sell" button which was
hidden within the hamburger menu,
but after a few simple taps and the users knew where the layout of the site via mobile size
was, everything seemed to
"click" .
- User 2 and user 3 mentioned that since the whole site was more condensed everything was focused on the center and so their attention wasn't all looking through a "full" page looking at all the details which helped a lot in making faster actions.
- One fun fact to identify is that All the users who during the "buying Phase" took 2 mins or less, because they mentions the search bar was front and center and there were not distracted by other items, they could just focus on buying something.
- one last useful bit of information about the usability aspect found from Ebay, is that during the selling portion every user was given an expedited "auto-fill" option when selling because of a similar sold item which boosted the speed of their selling and user experience getting from A > B
-- possible improvemnts --
- Icons
- user 3 and user 2 this time mentioned to me that "sell" was a little hidden and not very straightforward.
They didn't understand why it was not front and center like the serach-bar, so they re-iterated that would would enjoy a "sell button" dead center either above or bellow the search-bar


AS A COMPANY PERSON WE NEED A EMPLOYEE WHICH HAVE SKILLS AND MORAL VALUES,THIS IS A PERFECT PLATFORM FOR FIND THE BEST EMPLOYEEE FOR COMPANY,COMPANY CAN SEARCH DIFFERENT PERSON WITH THEIR UNIQUE ID,COMPANY CAN ANALYSIS HISTORY OF EMPLOYEE.

A ProtectionDomain is constructed with a CodeSource, a ClassLoader, an array of Principals, and a collection of Permissions. The CodeSource encapsulates the codebase (java.net.URL) for all classes in this domain, as well as a set of certificates (of type java.security.cert.Certificate) for public keys that correspond to the private keys that signed all code in this domain. The Principals represent the user on whose behalf the code is running.
The permissions passed in at ProtectionDomain construction time represent a static set of permissions bound to the domain regardless of the Policy in force. The ProtectionDomain subsequently consults the current policy during each security check to retrieve dynamic permissions granted to the domain.
Classes from different CodeSources, or that are being executed on behalf of different principals, belong to different domains.
Today all code shipped as part of the Java 2 SDK is considered system code and run inside the unique system domain. Each applet or application runs in its appropriate domain, determined by policy.
It is possible to ensure that objects in any non-system domain cannot automatically discover objects in another non-system domain. This partition can be achieved by careful class resolution and loading, for example, using different classloaders for different domains. However, SecureClassLoader (or its subclasses) can, at its choice, load classes from different domains, thus allowing these classes to co-exist within the same name space (as partitioned by a classloader).
For example, the typical way to invoke access control has been the following code (taken from an earlier version of JDK):
ClassLoader loader = this.getClass().getClassLoader(); if (loader != null) { SecurityManager security = System.getSecurityManager(); if (security != null) { security.checkRead("path/file"); } }Under the new architecture, the check typically should be invoked whether or not there is a classloader associated with a calling class. It could be simply, for example:
FilePermission perm = new FilePermission("path/file", "read"); AccessController.checkPermission(perm);The AccessController
checkPermission
method examines the current execution
context and makes the right decision as to whether or not the
requested access is allowed. If it is, this check returns quietly.
Otherwise, an AccessControlException (a subclass of
java.lang.SecurityException) is thrown.
Note that there are
(legacy) cases, for example, in some browsers, where whether there
is a SecurityManager installed signifies one or the other security
state that may result in different actions being taken. For
backward compatibility, the checkPermission
method on
SecurityManager can be used.
SecurityManager security = System.getSecurityManager(); if (security != null) { FilePermission perm = new FilePermission("path/file", "read"); security.checkPermission(perm); }We currently do not change this aspect of the SecurityManager usage, but would encourage application developers to use new techniques introduced in the Java 2 SDK in their future programming when the built-in access control algorithm is appropriate.
The default behavior
of the SecurityManager checkPermission
method is
actually to call the AccessController checkPermission
method. A different SecurityManager implementation may implement
its own security management approach, possibly including the
addition of further constraints used in determining whether or not
an access is permitted.
When the
checkPermission
method of the AccessController is
invoked by the most recent caller (e.g., a method in the File
class), the basic algorithm for deciding whether to allow or deny
the requested access is as follows.
Therefore, the
algorithm for checking permissions is currently implemented as
"lazy evaluation". Suppose the current thread traversed m
callers, in the order of caller 1 to caller 2 to caller m. Then
caller m invoked the checkPermission
method. The basic
algorithm checkPermission
uses to determine whether
access is granted or denied is the following (see subsequent
sections for refinements):
i = m; while (i > 0) { if (caller i's domain does not have the permission) throw AccessControlException else if (caller i is marked as privileged) return; i = i - 1; };
That is, a caller can
be marked as being "privileged" when it calls the
doPrivileged
method. When making access control
decisions, the checkPermission
method stops checking
if it reaches a caller that was marked as "privileged" via a
doPrivileged
call without a context argument (see a
subsequent section for information about a context argument). If
that caller's domain has the specified permission, no further
checking is done and checkPermission
returns quietly,
indicating that the requested access is allowed. If that domain
does not have the specified permission, an exception is thrown, as
usual.
The normal use of the "privileged" feature is as follows:
If you don't need to return a value from within the "privileged" block, do the following:
somemethod() { ...normal code here... AccessController.doPrivileged(new PrivilegedAction() { public Object run() { // privileged code goes here, for example: System.loadLibrary("awt"); return null; // nothing to return } }); ...normal code here... }PrivilegedAction is an interface with a single method, named
run
, that
returns an Object. The above example shows creation of an anonymous
inner class implementing that interface; a concrete implementation
of the run
method is supplied. When the call to
doPrivileged
is made, an instance of the
PrivilegedAction implementation is passed to it. The
doPrivileged
method calls the run
method
from the PrivilegedAction implementation after enabling privileges,
and returns the run
method's return value as the
doPrivileged
return value, which is ignored in this
example.
(For more information about inner classes, see Nested Classes in the Java Tutorials.
If you need to return a value, you can do something like the following:
somemethod() { ...normal code here... String user = (String) AccessController.doPrivileged( new PrivilegedAction() { public Object run() { return System.getProperty("user.name"); } } ); ...normal code here... }If the action performed in your
run
method could throw a "checked" exception
(one listed in the throws
clause of a method), then
you need to use the PrivilegedExceptionAction interface instead of
the PrivilegedAction interface:
somemethod() throws FileNotFoundException { ...normal code here... try { FileInputStream fis = (FileInputStream) AccessController.doPrivileged( new PrivilegedExceptionAction() { public Object run() throws FileNotFoundException { return new FileInputStream("someFile"); } } ); } catch (PrivilegedActionException e) { // e.getException() should be an instance of // FileNotFoundException, // as only "checked" exceptions will be "wrapped" in a // PrivilegedActionException. throw (FileNotFoundException) e.getException(); } ...normal code here... }Some important points about being privileged: Firstly, this concept only exists within a single thread. As soon as the privileged code completes, the privilege is guaranteed to be erased or revoked.
Secondly, in this
example, the body of code in the run
method is
privileged. However, if it calls less trustworthy code that is less
privileged, that code will not gain any privileges as a result; a
permission is only granted if the privileged code has the
permission and so do all the subsequent callers in the
call chain up to the checkPermission
call.
For more information about marking code as "privileged," see API for Privileged Blocks.
AccessController.checkPermission
was called inside the
new thread, a security decision would be made based solely upon the
new thread's context, not taking into consideration that of the
parent thread.
This clean stack issue would not be a security problem per se, but it would make the writing of secure code, and especially system code, more prone to subtle errors. For example, a non-expert developer might assume, quite reasonably, that a child thread (e.g., one that does not involve untrusted code) inherits the same security context from the parent thread (e.g., one that involves untrusted code). This would cause unintended security holes when accessing controlled resources from inside the new thread (and then passing the resources along to less trusted code), if the parent context was not in fact saved.
Thus, when a new
thread is created, we actually ensure (via thread creation and
other code) that it automatically inherits the parent thread's
security context at the time of creation of the child thread, in
such a way that subsequent checkPermission
calls in
the child thread will take into consideration the inherited parent
context.
In other words, the
logical thread context is expanded to include both the parent
context (in the form of an AccessControlContext, described in the
next section) and the current context, and the algorithm for
checking permissions is expanded to the following. (Recall there
are m callers up to the call to checkPermission
, and
see the next section for information about the AccessControlContext
checkPermission
method.)
i = m; while (i > 0) { if (caller i's domain does not have the permission) throw AccessControlException else if (caller i is marked as privileged) return; i = i - 1; }; // Next, check the context inherited when // the thread was created. Whenever a new thread is created, the // AccessControlContext at that time is // stored and associated with the new thread, as the "inherited" // context. inheritedContext.checkPermission(permission);Note that this inheritance is transitive so that, for example, a grandchild inherits both from the parent and the grandparent. Also note that the inherited context snapshot is taken when the new child is created, and not when the child is first run. There is no public API change for the inheritance feature.
checkPermission
method performs
security checks within the context of the current execution thread
(including the inherited context). A difficulty arises when such a
security check can only be done in a different context. That is,
sometimes a security check that should be made within a given
context will actually need to be done from within a
different context. For example, when one thread posts an
event to another thread, the second thread serving the requesting
event would not have the proper context to complete access control,
if the service requests access to controller resources.
To address this issue,
we provide the AccessController getContext
method and
AccessControlContext class. The getContext
method
takes a "snapshot" of the current calling context, and places it in
an AccessControlContext object, which it returns. A sample call is
the following:
AccessControlContext acc = AccessController.getContext();This context captures relevant information so that an access control decision can be made by checking, from within a different context, against this context information. For example, one thread can post a request event to a second thread, while also supplying this context information. AccessControlContext itself has a
checkPermission
method that makes access decisions based on the context it
encapsulates, rather than that of the current execution thread.
Thus, the second thread can perform an appropriate security check
if necessary by invoking the following:
acc.checkPermission(permission);The above method call is equivalent to performing the same security check in the context of the first thread, even though it is done in the second thread.
There are also times
where one or more permissions must be checked against an access
control context, but it is unclear a priori which permissions are
to be checked. In these cases you can use the
doPrivileged
method that takes a context:
somemethod() { AccessController.doPrivileged(new PrivilegedAction() { public Object run() { // Code goes here. Any permission checks from // this point forward require both the current // context and the snapshot's context to have // the desired permission. } }, acc); ...normal code here...Now the complete algorithm utilized by the AccessController
checkPermission
method can be given. Suppose the
current thread traversed m callers, in the order of caller 1 to
caller 2 to caller m. Then caller m invoked the
checkPermission
method. The algorithm
checkPermission
uses to determine whether access is
granted or denied is the following
i = m; while (i > 0) { if (caller i's domain does not have the permission) throw AccessControlException else if (caller i is marked as privileged) { if (a context was specified in the call to doPrivileged) context.checkPermission(permission); return; } i = i - 1; }; // Next, check the context inherited when // the thread was created. Whenever a new thread is created, the // AccessControlContext at that time is // stored and associated with the new thread, as the "inherited" // context. inheritedContext.checkPermission(permission);


CIDD README
# CIDD's README
#
# -F. Hage. Feb 1994.
# Last Update: 12/12/-00- F. Hage - HTML'ized
# Still lacks list of current ancillary programs
Cidd has two major code branches: "Little cidd",
which has the original code base as used and fielded from 1991 to
1998. "Big CIDD" is the code base that is currently being maintained and
went into use in late 1998 and throughout 1999. Its code has been
"cleaned up" and converted to compile under C++, although the design
remains primarily procedural C code. The new CIDD also uses the common
C++ class libraries for accessing data and ingest s and renders Symbolic product data
natively.
Major enhancements in the new CIDD code base:
- Unified config files in to one param file with delineated sections.
- Now uses URLs to designate sources of data.
- Only one server per machine need be run to serve out all gridded data.
- Can use HTTP (protocol) to load config files including Maps and Color scales.
- Can use HTTP proxies and a "data tunnel" to pass data through port 80
for both outgoing and incoming firewalls.
- Has a configurable main menu bar, which allows for customized and specialized
control setups.
- Has a simple, integrated mechanism to draw features for export into product
databases.
- Has hooks for driving netscape to specific URLS for help info and supplementary data.
Nowcast project configuration notes and instructions
CIDD related Applications and their Configuration Files:
CIDD Uses a unified configuration file delineated by XML like tags. Is is NOT XML, however.
Not even close.
Usage:
CIDD -p http://www.rap.ucar.edu/CIDD/aoaws.CIDD &
- <GRIDS> section: Determines which Gridded data sources are available from
CIDD's menus. Specifies the Labels, URL, colorscales, units label
default contour levels, rendering style, etc.
- <WINDS> section: Determines which data fields will be represented by wind
vectors, or barbs. Sets their Label, URL, colors, etc..
- <MAPS> section: Determines which map overlays are loaded, on by default,
and their initial colors. Note that these files are in the same format
as the product files that prds and exprt are compatible with.
- <DRAW_EXPORT> section: Determines parameters used to export simple line based
features to other programs.
- <MAIN_PARAMS> Contains most of start up parameters, such as window sizes, fonts,
menu configurations, zoom defines, map projection, the location/URL
of the map and colorscale files, and many other parameters which
control basic functionality and capabilities.
- <SYMPRODS> Contains parameters defining which Symbolic products to load and render.
- <DRAW_EXPORT> Contains parameters defining a set of Human Drawn Products to Export.
- <TERRAIN> Contains parameters defining a source of terrain data and land use data
render under the data grids. Terrain data is also displayed in cross section.
- <ROUTE_WINDS> Contains parameters defining a set of predefined routes and
sources of data to use for producing summary information about winds along the route.
It also controls the automatic warning feature for Icing and Turbulence along
the route.
-
- COLORSCALES: Each line in the <GRIDS> section specifies a colorscale file.
They are read either from a http URL or directly from a
local directory. CIDD first looks for a copy in the local
directory, which allows one to used modified colorscales.
- MAP FILES: Each overlay file listed in the <MAPS> section is loaded
from the given http URL or a specified directory.
Configuring CIDD
- Change the following sections and parameters
in the parameter file
- origin_longitude

Import datepicker module in your application
import { DatepickerModule } from '@sbb-esta/angular-public';
The datepicker field accepts dates in the format of dd.MM.yyyy as seen below
| Input | Output |
|---|---|
| 08.12.2018 | Sa, 08.12.2018 |
<sbb-datepicker>
<input sbbDateInput>
</sbb-datepicker>
By default the datepicker has the toggle enabled and the arrows disabled. Toggle and arrows can be enabled/disabled via attributes or property:
<sbb-datepicker toggle="false" arrows>
<input sbbDateInput>
</sbb-datepicker>
<sbb-datepicker [toggle]="toggleEnabled" [arrows]="arrowsEnabled">
<input sbbDateInput>
</sbb-datepicker>
The date input supports min and max dates. The datepicker emits events for opening and closing the datepicker. The initial focus for the datepicker is the current date value.
<sbb-field mode="long">
<sbb-label>Datum</sbb-label>
<sbb-datepicker (closed)="closedEvent()"

(dateInput)="dateInputEvent($event)">
</sbb-datepicker>
</sbb-field>
Datepickers can be connected. On selecting a date in the first/master datepicker, the second/slave datepicker will have its datepicker opened if it was empty or the value of the slave is before the newly selected date. Also the value of the master is set to be the min value of the slave, if no manual min has been set.
<form [formGroup]="twoDatepickersForm">

Module: WCC::Contentful::Store::Query::Interface
- Includes:
- Enumerable
- Defined in:
- lib/wcc/contentful/store/query/interface.rb
Overview
This module represents the common interface of queries that must be returned by a store’s #find_all implementation. It is documentation ONLY and does not add functionality.
This is distinct from WCC::Contentful::Store::Query, because certain helpers exposed publicly by that abstract class are not part of the actual interface and can change without a major version update.
Constant Summary collapse
- OPERATORS =
The set of operators that can be applied to a query. Not all stores implement all operators. At a bare minimum a store must implement #eq.
%i[ eq ne all in nin exists lt lte gt gte query match ].freeze
Instance Method Summary collapse
-
#apply(_filter, _context = nil) ⇒ Object
Called with a filter object in order to apply the filter.
-
#eq(_field, _expected, _context = nil) ⇒ Object
Applies an equality condition to the query.
Instance Method Details
#apply(_filter, _context = nil) ⇒ Object
Called with a filter object in order to apply the filter. The filter in this case is a hash where the keys are paths and the values are expectations.
sig
field: T.any(T::String),
expected: T.untyped,
context: T.nilable(T::Hash[T.untyped, T.untyped])
).returns(T.self_type)
59 60 61 |
# File 'lib/wcc/contentful/store/query/interface.rb', line 59 def apply(_filter, _context = nil) raise NotImplementedError, "#{self.class} does not implement #apply" end |
#eq(_field, _expected, _context = nil) ⇒ Object
Applies an equality condition to the query. The underlying store translates this into a ‘==’ check.
sig
field: T.any(T::String),
expected: T.untyped,
context: T.nilable(T::Hash[T.untyped, T.untyped])

A BUG'S LIFE A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1998 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): *** 1/2
Easily the best family movie in the past few years was 1995's TOY STORY.  Although the script is not quite up to the level of their first film, the movie is technically and artistically superior to DREAMWORKS's ANTZ, a film started after A BUG'S LIFE but rushed to market sooner.
Unlike ANTZ, full of Woody Allen's angst-filled musings targeted to some indeterminate age group, A BUG'S LIFE, with its large doses of good-spirited humor, will charm a preschooler as well as an octogenarian. Brightly lit and created with dazzling computer-generated animation, the film surpasses both TOY STORY and ANTZ in the intricacy and fluidity of the production.
The press notes say that it took up to 100 hours of computer time to render a single frame of the most complicated scenes. Rarely has computing power been put to use more effectively. But the sheer joy of A BUG'S LIFE comes not from the film's technical prowess but from the sweet and loveable characters and situations it creates. The script by Andrew Stanton, Donald McEnery and Bob Shaw is not only delightful, it is so funny that it had our press-only screening in such stitches that I missed half the jokes. It was so warmly received that the critics were applauding in the end, something these normally reticent professionals avoid.
The story opens with the ants harvesting food for their archenemies, the grasshoppers. The long line of ants carrying the food is stopped dead in its tracks by a disaster. A leaf has fallen smack dab in the middle of the line, and they have no idea how to cope. Finally, it is suggested that they might actually walk around the leaf, and, miracle of miracles, that works. One ants claims that the catastrophe wasn't nearly as bad as the "twig of 93."
The grasshoppers are led by a mean looking critter named Hopper, done with a deliciously sinister voice by Kevin Spacey.  And when ants don't toe the line, Hopper's universal refrain to his troops is "Squish 'em!" In private, he says that, since there are more ants than grasshoppers, it would be a terrible thing for the local insect food chain if the ants ever figured out what they could accomplish with their vaster numbers.
The story's hero is an ant named Flik (Dave Foley), an inventor who is always getting the other ants in trouble with his hair-brained schemes. After he loses all of the grain that they've been storing up for the grasshoppers, he proposes to leave their island and go in search of "bigger bugs" that would be a match for the evil grasshoppers. Princess Atta (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), The Queen (Phyllis Diller) and the council agree with his proposal. They never expect to see him again, which would please most of them.
In a classic story of mistaken identity, Flik happens onto the acting troop from the P. T. Fleas Circus. He hires them thinking that they are warrior bugs. They, on the other hand, think they've been engaged to perform circus acts for the ants. The wise script milks this idea for a long stream of laughs before it lets both sides realize how vulnerable they are. The colorful bugs include a praying mantis, a monarch butterfly, a pair of roly-poly bugs and a walking stick. Best of all is Denis Leary as a ladybug guy named Francis.
Although the film contains none of the inappropriate sexual references of ANTZ, it does have one hilarious line when the lightning bugs accidentally shine a light at the wrong time.  This is the only even slightly off-color line in the entire picture.
The marvelously inventive film ends in a celebration in which the ants even figure out how to create fireworks out of nothing more than some weeds. This sumptuous ending sequence is a perfect conclusion to a magical film.
And then come the ending credits when, in the "outtakes," we see how hard it is even for animated characters to get their lines right and to keep a straight face. Whatever you do, don't miss a minute of this hilarious concoction.
A BUGS LIFE runs 1:34. It is rated G and would be a great choice for all ages.
My son Jeffrey, age 9, gave it ****, said it was one of the best pictures of the year, and thought it was "way better than ANTZ." He had a long string of things he loved including the animation, the grasshoppers and the ants' big attack. He can't wait to see it again.

Online Masterclass: Entrepreneurship Defined: What Kind of Entrepreneur are you?
- about 24 hours
IE School of Architecture and Design and ArchDaily would like to invite you to join this outstanding online masterclass by Joseph Pistrui, expert in Entrepreneurship at IE University where he will share what it takes to be an entrepreneur in different contexts.
These days becoming an entrepreneur is a popular idea, yet what does it mean to “be an entrepreneur?” Do you have to be the founder of a startup? Work for a special unit inside a company? Go to work for a unicorn? In other words, what does it really take to become an entrepreneur?
If you are a start-up trying to get traction or an established company trying to launch new products and services, what you are trying to do is grow. With top-line growth as the objective, you are—implicitly or explicitly—doing something new to create value for customers and this requires thinking and behaving like an entrepreneur.
REGISTER HERE
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Joseph Pistrui has been helping founders, corporate leaders and their organizations become more systematic about developing a range of entrepreneurial behaviors that support innovation-based growth. He is currently leading the Nextsensing Initiative to distinguish the requisite mindset and skillset that underpins entrepreneurial behaviors and make them accessible to more general managers who chose to pursuing innovation-based growth and development.

fun observeActions(): Flow<Action>
(source)
Observe actions taking place in this MVFlow object.
This is just a utility method that you probably don't need. Be mindful what you do with it. While this might make some functionality easier to implement, you are risking breaking the MVI concept and its advantages!


EXTRACT Function
The EXTRACT function returns a date part, such as a day, month, or year, from a time stamp value or expression.
Syntax
EXTRACT ( datepart FROM { TIMESTAMP 'literal' | timestamp } )
Arguments
- datepart
-
For possible values, see Dateparts for Date or Time Stamp Functions.
- literal
-
A time stamp value, enclosed in single quotation marks and preceded by the TIMESTAMP keyword.
- timestamp
-
A TIMESTAMP or TIMESTAMPTZ column, or an expression that implicitly converts to a time stamp or time stamp with time zone.
Return Type
INTEGER if the argument is TIMESTAMP
DOUBLE PRECISION if the argument is TIMESTAMPTZ
Examples
Determine the week numbers for sales in which the price paid was $10,000 or more.
select salesid, extract(week from saletime) as weeknum from sales where pricepaid > 9999 order by 2; salesid | weeknum --------+--------- 159073 | 6 160318 | 8 161723 | 26 (3 rows)
Return the minute value from a literal time stamp value.
select extract(minute from timestamp '2009-09-09 12:08:43'); date_part ----------- 8 (1 row)

Navigate project history through contributor's faces!
Ever wanted to see the faces of the people who wrote the software you're using and trusting every day? Now you can easily, thanks to lolcommits, GitHub and this app!
Just create a repository named my-lulz-pics
and commit
your ~/.lolcommits
directory into it.
Lulz-history will look for pictures in all the subfolders of the
my-lulz-pics
repository owned by the commit author.
You can also put pictures in a branch named lulz-pics
,
in the same repository as the code, but I opted out from that solution
as it would require more work to set up and forces to keep around / merge
all the pictures from all the projects contributors.
Just tell me the name of the GitHub repository you want to explore..
..or, append repo/owner/name
at the end
of the application URL.

Continuous exposure to pollutants can cause severe long term damage. Clean Air Hub keeps you informed about the potential danger in the air.
Clean Air Hub monitors the Air Quality in real time. It is your well-wisher and warns you by changing color, each time there is a change in air quality.
Since Clean Air Hub gives you an updated comprehensive view of the air quality, you can compare the local air quality with the air quality of various other places.
Air pollution isn't a new thing, specially when you live in a city like Delhi. It has become a major environmental issue as it has created a lot of health hazards to the people of all age groups. In the recent years the rate of pollution has increased very sharply because of industries, rising number of cars, burning of waste materials and a lot of other factors. However, in Delhi full attention is not getting paid to control it. It needs to be tackled seriously otherwise we would suffer immensely.
The main pollutants contributing to this menace are:
To combat this problem, the Clean Air Hub provides sensors to keep these gases in check.

Releasing TomEE
This document aims to guide a release manager through the general release process.
Requirements
Operating System
You will need either a Linux or Mac. If you are on a Windows machine, you should set up a virtual machine (with at least a 50GB drive). Keep in mind, that you have to upload > 1GB of data, that means, ensure to have a stable and fast connection to the internet. Upload bandwidth is key.
Java & Maven
Ensure to build with the correct Java and Maven version.
-
TomEE 8.x - Java 8 + Maven 3.3.9
-
TomEE 9.x - Java 11 + Maven 3.8.x
Note: Currently, newer Maven version will fail to deploy *.tar.gz
files correctly. This is tracked in TOMEE-3903.
Ensure to setup JAVA_HOME
and PATH
correctly, e.g.:
Code Signing Setup
If this is your first release then you will have to ensure that you have a code signing key prepared on the machine from which you perform the release. The process obtain a valid key is quite intense. You can find information here:
However, the basic steps are:
-
Create a key using gpg --gen-key, using a keysize of 4096 and answering the questions that command issues.
-
During the process you will have to generate random entropy, this is best achieved in another console and issuing the command find / > /dev/null and waiting a minute.
-
List the keys using gpg --list-keys and take note of the name
Once you have your key then you will need to append it to the key file here:
Note: Adding new keys via SVN to the KEYS files can only be conducted by a PMC member.
That is best done as the file itself explains, once you open and view it in a UTF-8 safe text editor. The basic steps are also here, please read both before you proceed:
-
Save the KEYS file on your local machine and import it using gpg --import KEYS
-
Then create the new KEYS file using (gpg --list-sigs
&& gpg --armor --export ) >> KEYS -
Check that the new KEYS file contains your key.
-
Checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/tomee/ via SVN
-
Make a backup of the remote KEYS file just in case
-
Overwrite the old KEYS file with your new one that now also contains your key.

-
Create a backup of your private and public key and store it in a save location.
Prepare Maven Authentication
Ensure your maven .m2/settings.xml
are setup correctly and be aware that the tools currently require a clear text password:
<servers> <server> <id>apache.snapshots.https</id> <username>ASF_LDAP</username> <password>ASF_PASSWORD_IN_CLEAR</password> </server> <server> <id>apache.releases.https</id> <username>ASF_LDAP</username> <password>ASF_PASSWORD_IN_CLEAR</password> </server> <server> <id>apache.dist.https</id> <username>ASF_LDAP</username> <password>ASF_PASSWORD_IN_CLEAR</password> </server> </servers> <profiles> <profile> <id>my_profile</id> <properties> <gpg.keyname>INSERT_YOUR_GPG_FINGERPRINT</gpg.keyname> </properties> <repositories> <repository> <id>apache.dist.https</id> <url>https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist</url> </repository> </repositories> </profile> </profiles>
Check SVN Authentication
Pre-authenticate SVN repositories to ensure your credentials are cached before using any tools.
svn mkdir --username [ASF_LDAP] --password [ASF_PASSWORD] -m "Create test dir" https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomee/testdir3 svn delete --username [ASF_LDAP] --password [ASF_PASSWORD] -m "Delete test dir" https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomee/testdir3
Preparation of the release
Check Licenses & Style
Run
mvn help:system -U --show-version --fail-at-end clean install -DfailIfNoTests=false -DskipTests -Pstyle,rat
to ensure all licences are in place.
-
Review the report.txt and update/add missing headers until clean.
-
Search for Unapproved licenses: at the beginning of the report for a list.
Note: This step is always run by the GitHub Actions workflow and by the Jenkins build server, so you can check the CI status:
Check the full builds
Before you can continue, you should check, that the full build on Jenkins CI passes all tests.
Run the TCK (optional)
If in doubt, it makes sense to run the TCK on dedicated infrastructure. Instruction can be found in the TCK harness repository.
Build the Release Tools
Checkout the release tools using git from https://github.com/apache/tomee-release-tools
-
Read the
README.adoc
and follow the instructions for building required 3rd party libraries, i.e., checkout Tentacles and build them. -
Build the release tools by running
mvn clean install
-
The build will create an executable, which can be run via
./target/release
. -
Understand that the release tools are not polished, and you currently may have to edit source and re-compile.
Begin the Release process
Build the project
Double check that the tests and (optionally) the TCK passes. If so, go ahead with
mvn clean install release:prepare -DskipTests=true -Pmy_profile
The release:prepare
will ask some interactive questions, which need to be answered. If you are unsure, you can specify -DdryRun=true
to test it beforehand.
This command will create a tag and update the POM files accordingly to the release and the next development iteration.
During this process a release.properties
is created in the project root, which you should copy to a save location in case something goes wrong.
Deploy to Nexus Staging Area
If everything was successful, you can then run
mvn release:perform -DskipTests=true -Pmy_profile
This will take some time and upload a bunch of data to https://repository.apache.org/
After the build succeeds:
-
Login into https://repository.apache.org/
-
Go to Staging Repositories
-
Find the auto-generated staging repository named orgapachetomee-xxxx
-
Double-check the content of the repository. For example:
-
Check if
*.tar.gz
distribution artifacts are correctly uploaded. -
Check that
*.asc
signatures are present.
-
-
If your checks are ok, you can close the staging repository and move on.
Deploy Source and Distributions to dist/dev
Next, we need to move the distribution bundles (source + zip + tar.gz) to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomee/
To do so, open the tomee-release-tools
, which you have build in an earlier step.
Run
./target/release dist maven-to-dev --dry-run --maven-repo=https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachetomee-xxxx/ VERSION
and replace xxxx
with the staging repository and VERSION
with the actual version to perform the release.
This will download the required distribution bundles from the staging repository and generate SHA256 / SHA512 hashes.
Check that the files were correctly downloaded and the created folder in /tmp
contains everything, which is expected for the release (i.e. hashes, gpg sigs, sources, tar.gz and zip files).
If everything is ok, remove the --dry-run
flag and execute:
./target/release dist maven-to-dev --maven-repo=https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachetomee-xxxx/ VERSION
This will download the required distribution bundles from the staging repository and generate SHA256 / SHA512 hashes and commit everything to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomee/.
Note: Committing the changes will take some time depending on your upload bandwidth. Ensure you have a stable connection.
After the upload was successful, check that everything you would expect is available in https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomee/
Push the commits and the tag
Now it is time to push the generated commits and the tag generated during release:prepare
.
git push origin <branch>
git push origin <tagname>
Generate release notes (website)
Next, you can use tomee-release-tools
to generate the release notes for the website.
./target/release release-notes generate VERSION
Create a new branch on tomee-site-generator and add a new directory to src/main/jbake/content/<VERSION>
.
Copy the output of the command above to a new file release-notes.adoc
.Write some sentences summarizing the release and thank all users / contributors, who submitted bug reports, contributed code or documentation for the given release.
You can also get inspiration from previous release notes.
In addition, prepare the download pages and move the old version to the download archive.
Generate release notes (Jira)
-
Go to ASF Jira
-
Navigate to Releases
-
Create the next version, if it does not exist
-
Move all unresolved issues from the previous version to the new version (this is a bulk action)
-
Navigate to the version, which should be released, and click on Release Notes.
-
Verify, that the Release Notes only contain resolved issues.
-
Save the permalink to the release notes in Jira as we need it for the VOTE.
Calling for a vote (PMC only)
-
Publish a Vote.
-
Votes are generally managed and identified using keywords such as [VOTE], [CANCELLED] and [RESULT]
-
Include links to the staging repository, to dev/dist and to the tag created.
-
Include the changelog and a link to the Jira release notes
-
If the vote fails then discuss, fix and re-roll.
Voted Binaries (PMC only)
-
Once the vote has passed then release the binaries on Nexus: https://repository.apache.org/
-
Update both OpenEJB and TomEE JIRA versions as released (Set the release date).
-
Copy the binaries to the release location
From: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomee/staging-[stagingId]/tomee-[version] To: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/tomee/tomee-[version]
This step can also be automated by using the release-tools as follows:
[source,bash]
# Make sure to replace XXXX with the appropriate value ./target/release dist dev-to-release --dev-repo=https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomee/staging-XXXX https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/tomee/tomee-XXXX tomee-8.0.14
-
Merge the website branch and trigger a site deploy via Jenkins.
Spread the word!
Announce to the world that TomEE has new bells and whistles!

Easily find how Apollo mutations and queries are affecting your React components
Simply drag and drop
Apollo Aperture is a desktop application that analyzes Apollo and React code and displays the relationships among React components and Apollo queries and/or subscriptions. This tool provides developers with critical insight into their frontend architecture so that they can minimize unnecessary component re-rendering and optimize their application. In a coming update, it will also enable a developer to invoke mutations and see how queries are affected.
Apollo Client is designed so that a developer can insert GraphQL mutations, queries, and subscriptions almost anywhere in their code and connect them to React components. In a large codebase, however, this can become problematic because developers can find themselves in connected component hell where queries and mutations are strewn across their codebase and React components are connected with multiple queries and mutations. Not only is this an issue for developers, it can also cause issues for users. When Apollo’s client store or cache is updated, React child components which rely on queries or subscriptions are re-rendered, causing React’s DOM diffing algorithm to do more work which increases loading time on the client.


BY EDWIN JAHIEL
GATTACA ** Written and directed by Andrew M. Niccol. Produced by Danny DeVito et al. Photography, Slawomir Idziak. Editing,Lisa Zeno Churgin. Production design, Jan Roelfs .Music, Michael Nyman. Cast: Ethan Hawke (Vincent/Jerome), Uma Thurman (Irene Cassini), Gore Vidal (Director Josef), Xander Berkeley (Lama), Jayne Brook (Marie), Elias Koteas (Antonio), Blair Underwood (Geneticist), Mason Gamble (Younger Vincent), Vincent Nielson (Younger Anton), Chad Christ (Young Vincent), William Lee Scott (Young Anton), Clarence Graham (Personnel Officer), Ernest Borgnine (Caesar, the top janitor), Tony Shalhoub (German,the black-marketeer), Jude Law(Jerome/Eugene Morrow, Alan Arkin (Hugo Coldspring), Carlton Benbry (Gattaca Hoover), Loren Dean (Investigator/Anton Freeman), et al. A Sony/Columbia film. 106 min. PG-13.
Released in 1936, and just a stone's throw away from World War II, the futuristic 1936 movie "Things to Come," from a much earlier novel by H.G.Wells, was a vision of disastrous conflicts that were much later followed by the new, utopian start of the space age. "Gattaca," set "in a not too distant future", does not have a such a redemptive conclusion.
Life in it is pretty dreary. Genetic engineering divides people --at least the limited groups we see, in two : the elite and all the others. The elite comes from those babies that were created in vitro. They are all perfect specimens. The rest , conceived in the nice old-fashioned way (including the back seat of automobiles), are, like us, all born with weaknesses that are predicted by immediate tests.
Of two brothers born respectively via the new and the old method, Anton will join the Valid people's favored class, Vincent the In-Valids, the hoi polloi. There is sibling rivalry. From his earliest years, Vincent dreams of becoming a space explorer but realizing that he has the chance of a snowball in hell, becomes bitter, albeit wonderfully well self-taught. Like a few others (how many, we never learn), he eventually rebels against the system. His tactic is "if you can't lick them, join them).
He hires a "DNA broker" whose illegal business is to have In-Valids assume the genetic identity of Valids. For me this echoes the oft-made old film "Imitation of Life," (from the Fannie Hurst novel), in which Claudette Colbert (and later Lana Turner), had a black friend whose daughter's complexion allowed the girl to "pass" for white. There is also "Pinky" and other films.
In "Gattaca" this passing is called "a borrowed ladder." Vincent, modified in sundry ways, borrows his identity from Jerome, a cynical, sad, boozing former Silver Medalist swimmer, now wheelchair-bound after an accident. He trades identities with Vincent and provides him with samples of blood and urine. These are routinely, constantly used for identification.
As "Jerome," Vincent goes from janitor to scientist, joins the aerospace (plus more, but this remains hazy) corporation called Gattaca, and hopes to be among the chosen astronauts for a coming exploration of the planet Titan. His impersonation is not without suspense yet works out until a director of Gattaca is murdered. This brings in the police and heats things up for our hero.
Much has been made in the media about "Gattaca" being a sci-fi picture that shuns the deja vu effects, blasts, chases, shootings, ray-guns, morphing and such of the contemporary sci-fi genre. There is, indeed, merit in a picture that shifts gears from high to low in order to offer us a variant of dystopia based on class distinctions. The film keeps the gadgetry down, though not entirely out. It creates a sterile (rather than frightening) atmosphere through people who act like semi-zombies, all in identical business suits and moving in near lock-step.
There's much hidden irony here in the parallels with the hordes of similarly desk-bound office-workers, whether in real life or in older (I'd say pre-1960s) pictures. But "Gattaca" almost unremittingly takes itself seriously. The "humorous relief" items that I remember are two. In one, a pianist plays a Schubert "Moment Musical," then is revealed to have 12 fingers. The other bit is linguistic. The terms for investigators are "J. Edgars" or "Hoovers," doubly witty expressions since "to hoover" in British English means to vacuum-clean.
In investigations, everything is "hoovered," as a single human hair or flake of skin can prove the real identity of a suspect. To protect himself Vincent-Jerome engages in lengthy, vigorous ablutions to remove particles of skin. But this is a patent impossibility and a flaw in the movie's reasoning.
"Gattaca" is a high-concept film that tries to be an un-silly think-movie too. Both ideas work, but feebly. Beyond the DNA premise we just don't have enough --or any-- information about the minds, psyches, life or non-life of the people; about the form of government; about anything else beyond the narrow focus of Vincent's ambitions, and so on.
More attention is paid to the look of things than to their substance. No doubt, the stage settings are good in their oppressive monotony, uniformity, curves (rather than angles), dull colors and low light levels--the latter typical of places where computers do not require strong ambient light. No doubt there is superior camera work by the late director Krzysztof Kieslowski's favorite cinematographer. But the rhythm is too languid; there are enough holes to drain spaghetti through; a certain, mixed retro look that includes cars and a depressing ballroom sequence goes unexplained, as well as other sights.
In no order of importance, here are some other weaknesses. The return to obligatory cliches with the inclusion of Vincent's unexciting affair with co-worker Uma Thurman who is more decorative than functional. The answer to who was the killer, which I guessed effortlessly. Repetitions that include the musical score. The lack of edge-of-seat suspense. The improbable revelation that a major character bore close kinship to another person. The lack of dimensionality of characters.
Like an increasing number of first-feature makers --often promising--writer-director Andrew Niccol comes from the world of commercials. (He is a New Zealander who made them in England). His background may explain the lack of depth of this cautionary tale. The film is by no means a failure, but as food for thought, it is a Continental breakfast rather than a four-course meal of high cuisine.

My heart was fashioned to be susceptible of love and sympathy; and when wrenched by misery to vice and hatred it did not endure the violence of the change without torture such as you cannot even imagine.
