A radioactive egg hunt in Georgia
Washington Post | Submitted by: Son of Benway
"In the 1970s, scientists in the former Soviet Union developed scores
of powerful radioactive devices and dispatched them to the countryside
for a project known cryptically as Gamma Kolos, or "Gamma Ears." Its
purpose: to deliberately expose plants to radiation and measure the
effects... The experiments stopped long ago, but last year's terrorist
attacks on New York and the Pentagon have kindled an intense interest
in Gamma Kolos that revolves around a single question:
Where's the cesium now?"

Cat skinner operating with surgical precision
Denver Post | Submitted by: meatload

zipper on his tummy and they just unzipped him," she said of the cat...
Someone had made three quick incisions that, because of their precision,
were likely done after his death, Miller said investigators told her."

Manufacturer fined for selling lethal weed trimmer
Orange County Register | Submitted by: Reid Fleming
The US government announced they have fined the makers of a dangerous lawncare tool $885,000. The feds say that the Weed Wizard Corporation continued to sell their eponymous product for another two years after it had killed a 3-year-old Alabama girl in 1997. The child was killed when a metal chain link in the Weed Wizard came undone, flew through the air, ripped through her skull, and lodged in her brain. (The resulting lawsuit was settled for $7.35 million.) Over the years, there were at least 40 other reported injuries, wherein users and bystanders were struck by the same flying metal chain link, resulting in penetration wounds and lacerations to the head, neck, legs, ankles and feet. All this after the Australian government had already banned the thing in 1992.

The Worst Life Ever
New York Times | Submitted by: Mr. Black
"About once a year, the ragged punks along Hollywood Boulevard steal his
crutches while his attention is focused down on the brass monuments of stars
long forgotten. The punks apparently do this for kicks, and Mr. Peterson
is left to drag himself along on his knuckles and stump, a bag of
Brasso and rags and Windex in tow."

Carter shook the man off and landed several punches to his body before
about a dozen players from both teams restrained the fan. Lions linebacker
Carl Kidd kicked the man a few times while he was pinned to the ground."

Firefighters destroy man's Honda
Boston Herald | Submitted by: Michael C
"Framingham firefighters usually have their choice of junk cars on which
to practice using their metal-crunching rescue tools, and Friday's selection
of a 14 year old Honda seemed no different. But when the owner returned to
the vehicle he had parked earlier that day, it was a decision the firefighters
came to regret. Antonio Rocha, 32, of Framingham, found the windows of his
car gone and the doors and roof ripped off."

Have you ever wondered...
- Why am I so tired all the time?
- How much do I sleep at night?
- How much sleep is best for me?
If you have then Snoozzze is the app for you!
If you have then Snoozzze is the app for you!
Snoozzze is an app that will help you track how much you sleep each night. Additionally the app will ask you how you feel when you wake, how you felt during the day, and how tired you are before you go to bed using emojis. The emojis are each given a numerical value that is added up to calcualte your daily score. If you make a mistake or forget to log a day the app will let you go back and edit any previously entered data.
Snoozzze will take your logged sleep each day you wake up and compare it to your emoji score for that day and create a line graph presenting you the data. After you use snoozzze for a whole month the app will then be able to suggest how much sleep is best for you.

imglnx (pronounced as image lynx or image links - you decide) is a free image hosting service.
Currently we support .jpeg/.jpg, .png, .tiff, .bmp, .ico, .svg, and .gif at a maximum file size of 40MB.
nope.avi - All jokes aside, we just remove exif data.
Yes and no. You can login to your account and delete images, but as of right now you can't set an expiry on images. In other words, we store the images forever unless you delete them yourself or if they violate our ToS.
Honestly, 40MB is quite large for image hosting. It's possible that we'll raise it in the future, but it won't be anytime soon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Why did we change the size from 100MB to 40MB? Well, it's because we're not on a dedi anymore so we have limited space.
Of course you can. Just login and you can manage them if they were uploaded while signed into your account.
Yes, we recommend that you do. Make sure to choose a VPN that's listed on TorrentFreak or TheBestVPN, for the most trustworthy VPN providers.
Please check our Legal page for more information.
Exif data is data that's in images or media that can identify you, the user. Such as GPS coordinates, time of creation, or what camera you took said photo with. We remove this data to help protect your identity.
Short answer: no. Long answer: Since we're currently on 2.x version we're not going to open source it. If we end up making it to 3.x then we'll open source the 2.x version.
YES! We made the API for other developers to be able to use our service elsewhere.
Hmmmm. Perhaps it's your internets? Then again it could be our server(s). Go run a speedtest and if you're getting the usual speeds (what you pay for etc) then contact us and we'll look into it.
Forsure, do what you want.
If you have any other questions, please contact us.


{% extends 'base.html' %} {% block "left_column" %}
All the dimensions are in percentage widths so the layout adjusts to any screen resolution. Vertical dimensions are not set so they stretch to the height of the content.
To prevent wide content (like long URLs) from destroying the layout (long content can make the page scroll horizontally) the column content divs are set to overflow:hidden. This chops off any content that is wider than the div. Because of this, it's important to know the maximum widths allowable at common screen resolutions. For example, if you choose 800 x 600 pixels as your minimum compatible resolution what is the widest image that can be safely added to each column before it gets chopped off? Here are the figures:
I've colour coded each div so it's easy to see:
The header, colmask and footer divs are 100% wide and stacked vertically one after the other. Colleft is inside colmask. The two column content divs (col1 & col2) are inside colleft. Notice that the main content column (col1) comes before the side column.

Phalcon Monthly Funding Campaign
We are happy to announce that the Phalcon Monthly Funding Campaign.
https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4653615
Phalcon is a full stack PHP framework, delivered as a C-extension. Its innovative architecture makes Phalcon the fastest PHP framework ever built!
Phalcon is loosely coupled, thus you can choose which components you want to use, should you choose to. Some of the basic features are:
- Low overhead; Low memory consumption and CPU compared to traditional frameworks
- MVC & HMVC; Modules, components, models, views and controllers
- Dependency Injection; Dependency Injection and Location of services and it’s itself a container for them.
- Rest; In this case, you can use either a micro or full stack application to meet your goal. In addition, a powerful set of HTTP helpers.
- Autoloader; Provides the autoloading mechanism of PHP classes following PSR-4.
- Router; Phalcon\Mvc\Router provides advanced routing capabilities.
Additionally because Phalcon is loaded as a PHP extension on your web server, it offers the following benefits:
- Zephir/C extensions are loaded together with PHP one time on the web server’s daemon start process
- Classes and functions provided by the extension are ready to use for any application
- The code is compiled and isn’t interpreted because it's already compiled to a specific platform and processor
- Thanks to its low-level architecture and optimizations Phalcon provides the lowest overhead for MVC-based applications
Planned work:
- Documentation enhancements
- Bug fixes in Phalcon as well as Zephir
- Support for PHP 7.1
- Introduction of Middleware PSR-7
As many would know, working on an open source project rarely offers any rewards, other than the satisfaction that the project helps others with their work and projects. Often though, since this is not a source of income, time becomes a luxury to spend on the project and features or bugs take longer to be implemented/resolved.
Our goal, with your support of course, is to be able to hire a developer to work on the project full time. The focus would be first documentation, bug fixes and also new functionality.
For businesses that are using Phalcon for their application, it would make sense to sponsor Phalcon development since it will ensure that bugs are fixed quickly and efficiently and also new features are implemented much faster than before. Finally, it might also help you with exposure in the Phalcon community, making it easier to attract Phalcon developers.
Individual users are always welcome to make a recurring pledge, if Phalcon has helped you in your work or personal projects.
Thank you!

Snapdragon 865 will be 20% more powerful than Snapdragon 855
by AbdullahSnapdragon 865 will be 20% more powerful than Snapdragon 855
4 (80%) 4 votes
Everything points to the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor being unveiled in early December. So, it’s time for us to start learning more about its specifications.
This happens today thanks to the well-known Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station. This is often a credible source of this kind of information and once again used his Weibo social network account to let us know some of the specifications of the Snapdragon 865.
Snapdragon 865 Specifications
As previous leaks suggested, the Snapdragon 865 will have eight processing cores and one Adreno 650 GPU. The Qualcomm’s new SoC will consist of a Cortex A77 core running at 2.84GHz and another three running at 2.42GHz. In addition, we will have four 1.8GHz Cortex A55 cores that will take on the less demanding tasks.
This set of components and Samsung’s 7-nanometer EUV manufacturing process are expected to deliver a performance increase of around 20% compared to the Snapdragon 855, launched almost a year ago.
In graphics terms, this new processor will feature the Adreno 650 GPU, which should offer you a 20% performance boost. It should also be noted that this processor will feature a 4G and 5G compatible version.
The first smartphone with the new SoC
It is true! Although Qualcomm‘s new top processor has not been introduced yet, some have already announced a smartphone with this SoC.
The Chinese company 8848 was the first by revealing that its Titanium M6 5G will hit the market with the Snapdragon 865. It is an exclusive model in the Chinese market and at an exorbitant price.
The first models to hit the masses with the SD 865 are expected to be by Samsung, Xiaomi and Sony, as was the case with the SD 855.

| T+ 8:00 |

DXM |
I'm not going to make this a trip report about AMT because my experience on AMT was pretty standard, you know, I saw some stuff on the walls and stayed up all night blah blah blah. So anyway, mixing the drugs. I was just beginning to come down off a loooong AMT trip, and my friend and I decided to make hash. We realized we were a lot more intoxicated than we had realized and had accidentally spilled out all of the rubbing alcohol used as the solvent in the extraction in an attempt to extinguish the massive patio fire that we had started (long story).
Anyway, once the fire was under control we were kinda bummed out about losing our hash. So, we figured, lets knock back 250mg each, we have nothing to lose. When we dosed it was about 4:30 AM (that AMT keeps me up, I tell ya!). We popped in a Star Trek episode (Kirk era, too bad I can't remember what episode it was). I didn't really focus on the show at all, I let my mind run off and to tell you the truth I can't really recall what was happening during this first episode.
When the tape had ended, we put on 'Mirror, Mirror', one of the *best* episodes ever and the DXM started to really kick in. I had almost complete double vision and it felt like I was on a moderate 3rd plateau trip. It seemed like the voices were somewhat hollow and mumbled, and I found it extremely difficult to follow the plot (big surprise). It felt like I was forgetting what a person was talking about before they finished their sentence. It wore off faster than any dose of DXM I've ever taken -- about 3.5 hours after we had dosed. We spent the rest of the day just chilling around the house. No hangover, surprisingly. Slept like a baby the next night.
Summary:
Body -- total lethargy. This may have been a result of the time (4:30AM) and not the combo, but either way, this is the way it happened.
Mind -- relaxED, and took a break for a minute to just let everything clear out. This had it's positive and negative aspects, in that it was nice to feel so clear but I generally enjoy the feeling of thoughts rushing through my head (AMT did that nicely earlier in the night, the DXM somewhat spoiled that aspect of the trip for me).
Soul -- this combo has no spiritual aspects, IMHO.
Not euphoric, per se. Interesting, yes, but I didn't really do anything. I don't think that I even *would* be able to do something on this combo, even watch a movie. DXM is better suited for a lonely night. AMT is too happy to mix with DXM, and the DXM definitely took the excitedness and body high away.
Overall, if someone offered me the combo for free and I had nothing to do one night, I might consider doing it again. But like I said, it didn't really strike me as 'fun'. I was definitely intoxicated but it's just not exactly what I'm looking for in drugs.

Piran is the most convenient port of entry if coming from either Venice or Croatia. It is an attractive old town with a strong Venetian flavour and yachts moor right in the centre of the main square, which is a delight. That said, it gets busy in high season.
Position 45°31.5'N, 13°34.1'E.
There is a small space next to the fuel dock one can tie to for clearance. The Harbourmaster's office is at the root of the short breakwater and the Customs and Immigration are near the floating pontoon.
The small harbour lies on the SE side of the peninsula and is entered from SSW through a narrow entrance.
There is space to berth around 20-30 yachts up to 20m in length along its western breakwater in depths of 5-6m. Berth stern or bow-to with lazy lines. The berths on the eastern side of the harbour are for local yachts only.
Water and fuel are available in the harbour, but there are no other services for yachts.
Finding a berth here is not always easy, especially in the height of the season.
Whilst shelter is good, strong SW'lies can send a surge into the harbour so it is best visited in settled conditions.

What does it mean to display inline vs using inline block? Every element is a box model on CSS it all has height and width. They all naturally display in 2 ways, B • Block boxes: the are created with elements like P DIV and table, they take up all of the width of the HTML page • Inline boxes: This ones are generated by tags live B I or span, and things like text and images. They coexist on the same line by they don't accept all the changes in sizes. By setting the display to inline or block or inli-block you can change the deffault value of the element Block Elements: Inline Elements: They don't break the flow of the document!

Five Below to raise prices above $5 on some items
by KNOE(CNN) - Five Below, a popular store that sells products for five bucks or less, is undergoing a colossal change. It will start selling things above $5 for the first time in 17 years.
The company said: "We've always done everything possible to absorb cost increases. Recently, we had to raise prices above five dollars on tech items to keep providing the products you love."
The items costing up to $10 will be in separate sections of the stores.
They will have a toys and games section called "Ten Below Gift Shop" and an electronics section called "Ten Below Tech."
The company said most of its merchandise remains below $5, so it’s keeping the store name.

PETA criticises Jason Momoa for getting bear to eat Oreo from his mouth
‘Please, Jason, don’t promote wild animal exploitation in the future,’ says animal rights organisation
by Olivia PetterPETA has criticised Game of Thrones star Jason Momoa for getting a bear to eat an Oreo cookie out of his mouth.
The actor posted a video on Instagram of the exchange on Saturday, which took place before filming a scene for his new Apple TV+ series, See, in which he fights with a grizzly bear.
Speaking about the scene to Apple Music’s Beats 1 radio show, Momoa revealed the animal was a Kodiak bear that was nine-feet tall.

“Once the episode comes out, I’ll put it on my Instagram, when I put a cookie in my mouth. And then he eats it up,” Momoa said.
 Cause he tried to feed a bear with a cookie.’”
Momoa captioned the Instagram post: “The things we do for our ART. SEE. Is out. Please watch on Apple TV+. The bear needs to know your scent. So here’s my cookie kisses big guy. Love you tag. Aloha Baba Voss.”
But animal rights activists were quick to criticise Momoa for his actions, accusing the actor of using his celebrity platform to promote animal exploitation.
“In a sad stunt, a captive bear ate a cookie out of actor Jason Momoa’s mouth,” tweeted PETA.
“Bears used for entertainment are often torn from their mothers as infants, beat, and forced to perform.
“Please, Jason, don’t promote wild animal exploitation in the future.”
In a subsequent tweet, PETA called the use of a real-life bear in film and TV as “totally outdated”.
“Momoa knows how lifelike CGI, animatronics, and other cutting-edge technologies are, but subjecting a bear to the bright lights and bustle of a production set is stressful and totally outdated,” it continued.
“PETA urges the actor to consider compassion and refuse work with wild animals going forward.”
The Independent has contacted Momoa for comment.

13 April 1999
Disease Outbreak Reported
Further genetic analysis of the human virus isolates from 2 hospitalized children in Hong Kong SAR in March 1999, confirmed to be influenza A(H9N2) by the WHO Collaborating Centre for Influenza in London (United Kingdom) WHO Collaborating Centres in Atlanta (United States), has revealed that the viruses are genetically closely related to, but distinct from, influenza A/Quail/Hong Kong/GI/97(H9N2) isolates detected in 1997 during the influenza A(H5N1) outbreak in Hong Kong SAR.
Studies on the spread of A(H9N2) viruses between cages of chickens indicate that quail H9N2 virus is transmitted by aerosol more effectively than by faecal transmission.
In China, 5 human cases of influenza A(H9N2) were apparently identified in March 1999, but laboratory confirmation of the virus was not reported. Of the 5 cases, the youngest was 1 year old and the oldest was a man in his 70s. All patients apparently had mild influenza-like symptoms and recovered with no medical complications.


It's great to hear from you, FIRSTNAME! However, I am afraid we are all way too busy wrapping up the case to stop and chat :). Why, I don't even have time to arrange any social events tonight!
You should focus on making your recommendations. Make sure you make the right ones :). Once we have this case in the bag, there will be more time for fun!

How did you get into Quality Assurance?
I worked as a developer in India, then earned my master’s degree in Management Information Systems in Arkansas. After I finished my degree, my first job was at Yahoo! That was a QA position, and so my career became geared toward QA.
How did you arrive at Gilt?
In early 2010, someone from Gilt reached out to me online. At the time I was living in Washington, DC. During the interview process, I made a purchase to see how the site worked. I thought, ‘this is such a great concept!’ I still have what I bought the first time: a pair of lounge pants.
When did you start working here?
I joined Gilt in March 2010 as an automation engineer, doing QA automation. My job was to create new test cases for automation for different parts of the site–both front-end and back-end. I then did automation at Gilt City for a year. Earlier this year I switched back to Gilt to join the International team.
Which technologies have you used most at Gilt?
When I started here, we used Java and Selenium; most of our automation framework was built on Java as well. We still use Selenium, but with Scala now.
You’ve been learning Scala on your own, correct?
Yes. So far mostly everything that I’ve wanted to learn has been through internal chats, Martin Odersky’s Coursera course, and my colleagues’ help. With Scala, as with any programming language, you learn more by doing and getting your hands dirty.
What do you like about Scala?
I’ve only been studying it for a few months, but already I see that it’s more concise than Java. Scala lets you mix object-orientation and functional programming, and it’s easy and fun to learn.
What else have you been studying and learning here?
Gilt is so open about learning – people support you and make it as easy as possible. Recently I’ve been learning how to use Cognos, a data warehouse tool. It’s not required for my job, but I told my mentor that I wanted to learn more about the business side of the work I do for International. He helped me to gain access to the Cognos system and so I could learn how to create dashboards and understand the core international business better.
This brings me to Gilt’s mentorship program: It’s definitely very helpful to everyone who wants to make use of it. My mentor meets with me regularly to help me work on my primary and secondary goals. This sort of guidance definitely helps us to understand how our work directly affects the growth of the company.
Tell us more about the International team.
I’ve been on this amazing team for almost six months now, and feel really lucky to be a part of it. We’ve grown so fast, and we have so much potential. Everyone on our team is awesome at what they do, and we are always brainstorming about how to make the international experience more beautiful and seamless for our customers.
What are your goals going forward?
I’m very interested in product management. I’d like to work on solving some of those bigger business challenges, to help Gilt grow.
How has Gilt helped you move toward achieving your goals?
Last year, after I told my manager that I wanted to move into product management, he helped me take a one-week executive education course at UC Berkeley. The course helped me learn all about product management concepts and processes, and was a great experience. When I came back from California, I got to lead a subscriber registration model project for Gilt City.
How would you describe Gilt Tech’s work environment?
Creative, open, friendly. We don’t have walls or private offices, and there is no bureaucracy. It’s very easy to ask members of the executive team for their input and feedback on ideas. I love how we have things like a Gilt Tech Women group, where women can talk about our experiences, share and learn from each other openly, and read books by other women in technology and business.
There’s also a focus on substance here. We have KPIs to measure exactly how we’re contributing to the company. And we obviously care about using the best technologies, and meeting our own high standards.
What do you do outside of work?
I do improv and am taking kickboxing and storytelling classes. I also just received my competent communicator certificate from Toastmasters International. I joined Toastmasters for personal growth–to be a good product manager, you have to be a good speaker.
I feel that everyone at Gilt is passionate about pursuing their personal interests. It helps you grow in your company–you remain open to different sources of inspiration. The company appreciates work-life balance. It means that they actually care about you.


| Opcode* | Instruction | 64-Bit Mode | Compat/Leg Mode | Description |
| 9B DB E2 | FCLEX | Valid | Valid | Clear floating-point exception flags after checking for pending unmasked floating-point exceptions. |
| DB E2 | FNCLEX* | Valid | Valid | Clear floating-point exception flags without checking for pending unmasked floating-point exceptions. |
Notes: * See IA-32 Architecture Compatibility section below.
Clears the floating-point exception flags (PE, UE, OE, ZE, DE, and IE), the exception summary status flag (ES), the stack fault flag (SF), and the busy flag (B) in the FPU status word. The FCLEX instruction checks for and handles any pending unmasked floating-point exceptions before clearing the exception flags; the FNCLEX instruction does not.
The assembler issues two instructions for the FCLEX instruction (an FWAIT instruction followed by an FNCLEX instruction), and the processor executes each of these instructions separately. If an exception is generated for either of these instructions, the save EIP points to the instruction that caused the exception.
When operating a Pentium or Intel486 processor in MS-DOS* compatibility mode, it is possible (under unusual circumstances) for an FNCLEX instruction to be interrupted prior to being executed to handle a pending FPU exception. See the section titled “No-Wait FPU Instructions Can Get FPU Interrupt in Window” in Appendix D of the Intel®64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual, Volume 1, for a description of these circumstances. An FNCLEX instruction cannot be interrupted in this way on a Pentium 4, Intel Xeon, or P6 family processor.
This instruction affects only the x87 FPU floating-point exception flags. It does not affect the SIMD floating-point exception flags in the MXCRS register.
This instruction’s operation is the same in non-64-bit modes and 64-bit mode.
FPUStatusWord[0:7] ← 0; FPUStatusWord[15] ← 0;
The PE, UE, OE, ZE, DE, IE, ES, SF, and B flags in the FPU status word are cleared. The C0, C1, C2, and C3 flags are undefined.
None.
| #NM | CR0.EM[bit 2] or CR0.TS[bit 3] = 1. |
| #UD | If the LOCK prefix is used. |
Same exceptions as in protected mode.
Same exceptions as in protected mode.
Same exceptions as in protected mode.
Same exceptions as in protected mode.

Bootstro requires bootstrap & bootstrap popover
Add class .bootstro to any element that you'd like to be highlighted
Specify the highlighted (intro'ed) element's popover with data-bootstro-* prefix, where * can be one of the bootstrap popover's options.
At the bare minium, you should probably provide data-bootstro-title and data-bootstro-content.
data-bootstro-title : Title of the popover [optional, defaulted to '']
data-bootstro-content : Content of the popover [optional, defaulted to '']
data-bootstro-placement : Placement position [top,bottom,left,right] of the popover [optional, defaulted to 'top']
data-bootstro-width : If you like to bypass bootstrap's default popover un-settable width, specify it like data-bootstro-width='500px'. Don't forget the 'px' suffix [optional]
data-bootstro-nextButtonText : Next button HTML text. For example, in stead of "Next", you can specify
data-bootstro-html : true|false . Whether or not the popover content will be displayed as HTML or text. Refer to popovers html option.
data-bootstro-step : The stack index of the intro'ed popover.
Heads up! If you specify data-bootstro-step for at least one .bootstro element, then you must provide data-bootstro-step for all .bootstro elements on the page.
Otherwise, just leave out data-bootstro-step attribute altogether, and the popovers will follow their natural order
To extend bootstro, you can just assign bootstro.yourfunction = {}. Bootstro's using the prototype written in jqueryenterprise.com's blog
bootstro's public methods
bootstro.start(selector, options) : Init & Start the popover show
bootstro.go_to(i) : Show the popover at the stack index i
bootstro.stop() : Stop slide show
bootstro.next() : Go to next popover
bootstro.prev() : Go to previous popover
bootstro.bind() : Initialize & bind handlers for keypress, click on the nav events
bootstro.unbind() : Unbind all the initialized bootstro handlers
With that, probably Bootstro can be easily customized to show all the popovers at once, not just a slideshow
Include bootstro.js (after bootstrap.js) & bootstro.css. There are minified versions too
Call
$(document).ready(function(){ bootstro.start(selector, options); });
where selector is any jquery selector, defaulted to '.bootstro'
You can pass an options object to overwrite bootstro's defaults.
nextButton: HTML for the next button. It must include a class 'bootstro-next-btn'. defaulted to
< button class="btn btn-primary btn-mini bootstro-next-btn">Next »< /button>
Pass '' if you don't want the buttons (and just using nav keys)
nextButtonText: If you don't want to specify the whole length button text for nextButton, this is a simplified version. You just need to specify the test "Next »" and the final button will be wrapped into
< button class="btn btn-primary btn-mini bootstro-next-btn">Next »< /button>
Note that, nextButton will override nextButtonText.
prevButton: HTML for the prev button. It must include a class 'bootstro-prev-btn'. defaulted to
< button class="btn btn-primary btn-mini bootstro-prev-btn">Next «< /button>

initially we had a drink in the summer months.


change to scenery mode and it will combine the right texture with the right model and you can cycle through them with q and w
I'm getting about 1,000,000 +/- 100,000
no problems really, except for that one texture that is HUGE and covers up the model lol
I ran it in 800x600 windowed, fullscreen, then 1600x1200 windowed and then fullscreen and there was no performance hit


Highlight a region to zoom in. Double-click to zoom back out.
The fractals here are drawn using a neat technique known as an iterated function system (IFS). Basically: for a given fractal, we have a set of transformations, each of which may be applied with some probability (e.g., 1 out of 10 times). These transformations are applied iteratively over and over - the more iterations, the more self-similarity emerges (and the cooler it looks).
The charting is done with the excellent dygraphs library.
The following fractals are currently implemented:
| Fractal | Recommended min. iterations (to make it look cool) |
|---|---|
| Barnsley's fern | 20,000 |
| Koch snowflake | 50,000 |
TODO:
- Center graph container
- Show computation time
- For now, plot the whole thing at once - eventually a "real-time" animation would be cooler - need to investigate that capability with dygraphs


What the user is prompted to download, fill out and mail in if they accidentally choose the wrong option.
I created six different possibilites for how the screens could potentially look. The team decided that the best solution was a "Yes" or "No" tab. This allowed the user to pick "Yes" (thinking they own it, when in reality they don't) and then select "My business". This would take them to the same place as clicking "No" in the tab option.

What is Color Therapy?
Color therapy, in laymans terms, is basically where we shine a colorful light at somebody in a comforting room, and that in turn, helps them feel certain emotions, whether that be contempt, energized, or relaxed. This is an easy thing to do, both for the patient, and the staff. We believe color therapy is beneficial to those who are neurodivergent or people whose mental health isn't the best, but it can also be used for people who just need a relaxing experience.
Pricing
We have experimented with various prices, and we have found the perfect pricing for our therapy sessions. Starting at $30 per individual session, patients will be able to choose between red, green, or blue depending on their needs. You may also purchase a monthly membership which reserves 4 sessions (one every week) This membership costs $75 monthly, but can be canceled any time and can also be scheduled for only one month.

Japan-South Korea friction flares again after GSOMIA intel pact rescue
Japan and South Korea took fresh swipes at one another Sunday, raising questions about whether relations between the U.S. allies would improve after they reached a last-minute deal Friday to rescue an expiring intelligence-sharing pact.
Late Sunday Japan rejected a South Korean complaint over the wording of an announcement that the two sides would hold talks on a dispute over export controls.
Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry wrote on Twitter that the announcement had been in line with prior discussions with South Korea, after Seoul accused Tokyo of intentionally leaking and distorting information about the agreement.
South Korea on Friday suspended its plan to pull out of the intelligence-sharing pact, known as the General Security of Military Information Agreement (GSOMIA), and said it would temporarily withdraw a complaint it made against Japan at the World Trade Organization. The developments marked a rare reversal in tensions that have plunged to new depths in recent years and spilled over to impact trade and tourism.
The foreign ministers of the two countries then agreed at a meeting in Nagoya on Saturday to work toward a summit between Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and South Korean President Moon Jae-in on the sidelines of a trilateral meeting with China next month.

- GSOMIA lives, but what's next for Japan and South Korea ties?
Then, on Sunday, the South Korean presidential office expressed deep regret over the Japanese government’s handling of the joint announcement on GSOMIA. It accused Tokyo of not abiding by the agreed timing for their joint statements and objected to some of its characterization of South Korea’s positions.
The pact was set to formally cease at 12 a.m. Saturday, three months after South Korea moved to end the deal amid a history-laden dispute with Japan. The three-year-old pact was seen as important because it demonstrated the neighbors’ ability to cooperate independently from Washington to counter shared threats including China and North Korea.
The decision to save GSOMIA — which had been a key focus of U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper during a trip to Asia over the past week — was quickly applauded by the Pentagon.
The Pentagon had warned that allowing the pact to end would “increase risk” to some 80,000 U.S. troops stationed in the two countries, while Esper said in Seoul that the only ones benefiting from friction between Japan and South Korea were “Pyongyang and Beijing.”
North Korea has reminded all three of the risks, test-firing a series of new ballistic missiles since May that weapons experts have said could deliver a nuclear warhead to all of South Korea and most of Japan.

The breadcrumb trail may also include tab state on a single page. This can be achieved by creating a UI Router state for each tab, and connecting the states with the active tab in a controller. The breadcrumb may then display a different breadcrumb text for each tab, and child views may be associated with particular tabs for the purposes of navigation.
To configure this, create the tab view using the select
and active
attributes.
In the above example, the patterns.pagelayout.breadCrumbWithTabState. documentationDetail
state acts as a child
of patterns.pagelayout.breadCrumbWithTabState. documentationTab
in the breadcrumb trail, even though it is
at the same level of hierarchy. This is due to the ncyBreadcrumb.parent
property, and allows it to load in
the same ui-view
as the parent.
Note: If you use the
ncyBreadcrumb.parent
property, the Back Button will require additional code to navigate correctly. See the Back Button section of the Standard Header documentation for an appropriate implementation of thetarget-state
attribute.

I started this out in the name of pure scientific knowlegde. My plan: to document the effects of a daily dose of salvia for spiritual/mental health purposes. Everyday at about the same time, around 10 PM, I smoked a bowel of salvia divinorum leaf. Everyday I got the same effect, a sense of well being and feelings of connection. I also got a slight taste of the salvia body high. I continued this for a total of 2 weeks.
About halfway through the first week my mood seemed very up, nobody seemed to notice anything different about my character and I felt more in contact with the gods, the earth, people, animals, everything. By the end of the first week my recollection starts to get hazy. I still felt in very high spirits, but my friends said I was acting a little odd, randomly blurting out whatever popped into my head. They all seemed to enjoy it and I enjoyed myself too.
Halfway through the second week my thinking and memory was extremely erratic but never dangerous. I can't quite remember my state of mind during that time but I know I was considering giving up on the experiment. At the end of the second week I ended the experiment when a friend expressed concern for my well being. We had smoked some weed and during my high there was a time where I layed back onto the couch, my eyes rolled back into my head and I suddenly exclaimed MASHED POTATOES! I preceded to be barely reachable for the next 30 minutes. I remember smoking the pot but don't remember that half an hour.
My thinking was erratic for the next 3-4 days or so but it eventually went back to normal. I guess here is where I make my conclusions but personally I don't want to influence you, the reader, either way on trying what I did. Just be careful.

Currently I am working for the County Clerk and Recorders Office as a Pollbook Judge. This is new as I recently left my full time position as a Construction Manager with a large home builder. I will upload my resume and you will see my involvement with homebuilding throughout Colorado. I have seen extensive expansion and frankly am concerned but relieved that there is this commission. A friend of mine told me about it. I would be honored to support the commission with my efforts.
Masters of Science Bachelors of Science
80501
I have not been formally organizing any interest groups in Colorado. I was a full time worker and single mom which took all of my time.
I have not ever been politically active other than voting
none
Upon discovering this commission, I felt immediately drawn. Having just leaving my full time job in the construction industry I am looking for something that would support community and/or state interests. Having built hundreds of homes and seeing hundreds of people coming into Colorado, I cannot help but believe that a redistricting is needed; not to mention possible past gerrymandering. Hence, I am applying for this position and would be honored to serve on the committee. In an effort to be honest with you I need to express that I am a common person who never really got involved with the parties or politics; other than voting. I do not know what you are looking for. I can tell you that I am ethical, interested, organized, results orientated, collaborative, objective and I listen really well to all people and treat everyone with fairness and concern. My job in construction was that of a problem solver, basically all day long, and I would like to carry that skill forward to a meaningful effort such as this. I do not have any letters of recommendation but can get you some if you would like me to. I did not want to ask unless I knew this was even a possibility! The letters would come from owners of businesses in the trades that I worked with. They would tell you I am fair, kind and treat everyone with importance. Having lived in Routt County for many years as well as the Front Range has afforded me the unique experience of the needs and the cultures of both areas.
To be fair I believe it is important to listen to people with genuine interest. All committee members need to have the ability to take each others interests and to collaborate interests and opinions among the committee. In this situation, problems need to be solved. The problems need to be stated like a scope of work. The problem needs to be analyzed by all involved and input needs to be heard. Perhaps not everyones solution will be the determining point, but the most sensible solution needs to be the determination. If needed, I can accept to let go of an opinion to determine the most sensible solution through collaboration.
I would keep the following in mind: First analyzing a problem from variable possibilities and viewpoints is necessary. Taking effort into genuinely understanding the history as well as the pros and cons of the history of the situation to determine root cause issues is always helpful to me. If and then scenarios toward possible solutions and results to each is a process I follow. Utilization of facts and data available is important to uncover issues and situations. Then, craft solutions toward desired outcomes and results prioritizing results leads me to desired outcomes. In summary it is important the end point is reasonably thought out with data to back it up.

MEN WITH GUNS A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1998 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): *** 1/2
As he looks wistfully at the photograph taken just three years ago, the doctor puts his thumb on each smiling face. The picture has the men and one woman surrounding him like a father at a reunion of his grown children. They were all young doctors at the time, and he had just finished training them in a well-intentioned plan to treat tapeworms among the poor Indians of an unnamed Latin American country, where the story takes place. But he had recently begun to realize that most of them had been murdered, and he covers their happy expressions to remind himself that they have probably perished. His sense of loss becomes palpable in this moving drama and mystery, aptly called MEN WITH GUNS.
It wasn't as if he hadn't tried to report the tragedy to the authorities. When he found that the first doctor had been killed, he went promptly to the local police to inform them of the tragedy. And the officer was indeed concerned. He wanted to hear all about it so he could go speak to those Indians immediately and stop these rumors. Oh yes, and could the doctor please show him his medical card to prove that he was not a journalist.
In MEN WITH GUNS John Sayles, one of our preeminent storytellers, tackles another subject ignored by most other filmmakers. He received Oscar nominations for the scripts of LONE STAR and PASSION FISH, and he has made movies ranging from dramas about baseball scandals (EIGHT MEN OUT) to mystical tales about remote Scottish Islands (THE SECRET OF ROAN INISH) to ones about union busting (MATEWAN). One thing sure and certain about Sayles's movies is that they will be highly intelligent and worth a second or even a third viewing to savor the rich tapestry he arrays in front of us. He even bankrolls his own movies lest some studio head dare suggest how he should approach his craft.
Sayles, who taught himself Spanish, wrote the script directly in Spanish and then had a Latin American native translate it into an appropriate dialect. Besides the Spanish, and a little English, many of the actors speak in their native tongues of Nahuatl, Tzotzil, Maya and Kuna. The resulting tower of Babel, with easy to follow subtitles, shows how hard it is for the country's people to communicate among themselves.
As MEN WITH GUNS starts, the upper-middle class Dr. Fuentes is attending to his well-heeled clients. When he sees one of his student doctors back in the city rather than the village where he was sent, Dr. Fuentes is nonplussed. The nervous young man flees and, when trapped, complains about how Dr. Fuentes is both the smartest and the most ignorant man he knows. The student alludes obliquely to some horrors out in the jungle where the students were sent.
This sets the doctor off on an allegorical journey, both to solve the mystery and to seek his legacy. Although sad, this poignantly moving tale is never less than engrossing, not so much as a big mystery but in its almost spiritual exploration along the way.
Federico Luppi gives an impressive portrayal of Dr. Fuentes. With his highly polished look, he brings a commanding presence to the role. And when the entire world as he thought he knew it begins imploding on him, his fear and concern are never less than completely believable. A strong man, but a vulnerable one, the doctor faces a crisis of such proportions he could never have dreamt of them in his worst nightmares.
The word village does not adequately capture the spirit of these obscure clusters of poor people living in the wilderness. Many of the places where they live can only be reached on foot, they are so far removed from civilization. At the first of this little hamlets, Dr. Fuentes first learns of the murder of one of his students. A poor blind woman explains that the "Men with Guns" killed him. Why? "Because they had guns, and we didn't." And in a story that takes no political sides, the doctor comes to learn of atrocities committed by the military, staffed by Indians from other villages, and the guerillas alike.
On his journey through more and more remote terrain, the doctor is robbed repeatedly but picks up three unlikely traveling companions along the way. In a powerful performance rivaling Luppi's, Damian Delgado plays a soldier named Domingo, who has gone AWOL from the army since he became sick of being forced to perform unspeakable acts of horror. Domingo is no saint himself as his actions as well as the scenes in flashback demonstrate, and one could argue that his quest is for the redemption of his soul.
As the boy Conejo, Dan Rivera Gonzalez delivers a performance so natural that it sometimes seems he isn't acting at all. Finally, the most troubled person in the movie is a man who refers to himself as a ghost, a priest named Damian Alcazar, who feels he is no longer a priest.
As the four travel through the wilderness, trying to avoid the Men with Guns at every turn but usually failing, they become increasingly frightened but resolved to carry on. Along the way they come upon the home in ruins of people known only as the Banana People, the Coffee People and the Salt People, named for the single commodity they can harvest to sell for food.
(In a blessed relief from the show's tension, Mandy Patinkin and Kathryn Grody play American tourists with laughably bad Spanish, who have a blast touring the local ruins during all of this commotion. Never realizing what is happening, they sum up their feelings to Dr. Fuentes, whom they keep running into, as "It is 'so' peaceful here.")
Typical of the locals the doctor meets along the way is a man getting a haircut. He sums up the situation succinctly as, "Nobody refuses the men with guns."
MEN WITH GUNS runs 2:08. It is rated R for language and some violent images and would be an excellent choice for teenagers as well as adults.

I have been using hops almost daily and it has become my favorite herb of all time. Hops is related to cannabis and I have noticed some cannabis-like effects from it. I normally use hops in a cigarette with tobacco. It gives a nice relaxing effect and heavy eyes. In many respects it's like smoking pot minus the head change. I really enjoy the relaxing effect without having my thoughts distorted like when using cannabis.
I also find that vaporizing hops give a stronger effect. When I vaporise I just do it in my pipe with a lighter flame above the bowl. Hops won't set me back like cannabis does but I notice it. Another thing I really like about it is that because it's used in brewing beer the chances of it becoming illegal are virtually 0. Additionally, although hops is related to cannabis it is not likely to show up on a drug test.
After having vaporised a bowl: I mentioned that it didn't give me a head change. What I mean my that is that my thoughts are pretty clear on hops. But hops does what I call 'selective stupidity'.  Also as far as visuals go, it gives my vision a kinda 'hazy' effect kinda like cannabis does. Even though I am an almost daily user I don't vaporise that often and I forgot how strong an herb it actually is. Dispite its legality hops can be set me back pretty good if vaporised. Vaporising in a pipe with a lighter flame works really well.

The situation in Sudan currently has made me feel the need to write this post.
I have been doing a pretty great job of being ignorant about the problems going on in this world lately. And after having experienced it myself, I do agree, ignorance is bliss.
I was too occupied complaining about not having enough will to eat healthy, or getting more sleep than I need, and the worst problem of all of not having a partner that I can love and confide to.
It was almost like I was not even conscious of the people of this world scattered around the globe that are dying out of hunger and thirst, some cannot get sleep for more than a few seconds because of the loud noises coming from gun fires, and those same gun fires depriving them of their loved ones till eternity.
This facade was broken a few minutes back when I decided to tap on a friends Instagram story. It gave me a crash course on the things happening in Sudan as of now. The same old same old people killing and hurting others while battling within themselves to find the right balance between power and peace.
Humans seem to be hungry for power and peace, and the saddest, most ironical part is that both of these things are at the opposite sides of the spectrum. To gain power, you have to let go of peace, regardless of trying to convince yourself that it is only for a brief moment. And the same applies to restoring peace. It is this constant dilemma between power and peace that has and will destroy nations universally.
But interestingly enough, this is not exclusive only to governments and leaders. Our parents have the same dilemma, a little spanking or shouting could go a long way at establishing the authoritative power in the house and maybe even a delusional peaceful environment?
And the same dilemma can be seen for an individual battling with their own life decisions. We could give up our peace by taking up power to do something about these “unjust”(I put unjust in quotes because we all are biased in all situations no matter what, and maybe from our perception it is clear that it is unjust but from the people that make the decision to kill, they probably have justifications for their actions in great lengths, but bias is a topic for another day) wars.
And suppose for a second I do decide to choose power and take action. What actions do I take that can actually help? Which battles and wars do I pick to take actions for? Is putting up an Instagram story or writing a Medium post enough of an action? I’ve heard this saying a couple of times that goes something like “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”
But is just doing something or anything by good men enough for evil to not triumph? I somewhat get the idea behind this quote, but what exactly do good men do? And how do we even know if we are the good or the evil in a situation? Is the only way to find out which side is right is by seeing where the majority of mass killing is being taken place? Is that the metric that needs to be followed? Or is there a way for good men to do something before evil triumphs, but what if those decisions are that make them the evil that triumphs?
Maybe I am looking at this from a completely wrong perspective, I really do not know. The more I try to learn, the more I find out the less I know.
So then by the process of elimination, do I pick peace over power and knowingly live an ignorantly blissful life?
