While it may seem counter-intuitive, it is often the case with existing TCP implementations that -- between two computers -- a single TCP connection has much poorer performance than two TCP connections that each carry half the data1. Therefore, the number of REQUEST entries to the same upstream LDM can affect the tradeoff that consequently exists in the LDM system between data-product latency and computer load. Take, for example, the following entry in the LDM configuration-file, ldmd.conf:
It might be better, in terms of data-product latency to split this request into the following:REQUEST WMO .* hostId
If the increased load on the computer from having two downstream LDMs running instead of one caused performance problems, however, then this would be a bad idea.REQUEST HDS .* hostId REQUEST IDS|DDPLUS .* hostId
Besides splitting the data-feeds on the feedtype as in the above example, it is also possible to split them on the data-product identifier ERE. This is most useful for extremely high-volume data-feeds like CONDUIT. For example, the following entries:
would split reception of CONDUIT data into two connections to the same upstream LDM of equal volume by taking advantage of the trailing sequence number that is part of the data-product identifier of CONDUIT data-products. Similarly, the feed could be split into five connections of equal volume if experience proved that necessary.REQUEST CONDUIT "[02468]$" hostId REQUEST CONDUIT "[13579]$" hostId


Equivalent to selecting the check box corresponding to a toolbar on the Toolbars tab in the Customize dialog box, which appears when you select the Customize command (View menu, Toolbars submenu). Hides or displays a toolbar. Use SHOW.TOOLBAR to display or hide a menu bar you have created with the ADD.BAR function or to display a built-in Microsoft Excel 95 or earlier version toolbar.
Syntax
SHOW.TOOLBAR(bar_id, visible, dock, x_pos, y_pos, width, protect, tool_tips, large_buttons, color_buttons)
Bar_id is a number or name of a toolbar corresponding to the toolbars you want to display. For detailed information about bar_id, see ADD.TOOL.
Visible is a logical value that, if TRUE, specifies that the toolbar is visible or, if FALSE, specifies that the toolbar is hidden.
Dock specifies the docking location of the toolbar.

X_pos specifies the horizontal position of the toolbar.
If the toolbar is docked (not floating), x_pos is measured horizontally from the left edge of the toolbar to the left edge of the toolbar's docking area.
If the toolbar is floating, x_pos is measured horizontally from the left edge of the toolbar to the right edge of the rightmost toolbar in the left docking area.
X_pos is measured in points. A point is 1/72nd of an inch.
Y_pos specifies the vertical position of the toolbar.
If the toolbar is docked, y_pos is measured vertically from the top edge of the toolbar to the top edge of the toolbar's docking area.
If the toolbar is floating, y_pos is measured vertically from the top edge of the toolbar to the top edge of the Microsoft Excel workspace.
Y_pos is measured in points.
Width specifies the width of the toolbar and is measured in points. If you omit width, Microsoft Excel uses the existing width setting.
Protect is a number specifying the degree to which you can modify a toolbar and its buttons. Each succeeding protect number retains the protection status of its previous numbers. For example, a protect status of 3 (a toolbar cannot become docked if it is floating) assumes the protection status of 0, 1, and 2 as well.

Tool_tips is a logical value that corresponds to the Show Screentips On Toolbars check box on the Options tab. If TRUE, ScreenTips will be displayed. If FALSE, ScreenTips will not be displayed.
Large Buttons is a logical value that corresponds to the Large Icons check box on the Options tab. If TRUE, large icons will be displayed. If FALSE, large icons will not be displayed.
Color_buttons is a logical value that corresponds to the Color Toolbars check box. If TRUE, the toolbar buttons will be displayed in color. If FALSE, the toolbar buttons will not be displayed in color. This argument is for compatibility with Microsoft Excel version 5.0.

Logic Programming Tutorial
Pyke is an inference engine that applies rules to facts to establish additional facts (through forward-chaining rules), and/or to prove goals and optionally assemble Python functions into customized call graphs, called plans (through backward-chaining rules).
Pyke may then be reset, deleting the last set of facts, so that the cycle may be repeated. For each cycle a different rule base may be activated.
The plan capability allows the postponement of code execution until the top-level goal has been completely proven. This shields the code from blind alleys and the backtracking that occurs within the rules.
Once a plan has been created, it may be executed multiple times with different arguments. It may also be pickled, and later run again only requiring one small Pyke module.
Pyke also provides an end user question capability, as well as the capability to run commands on the local system to guide the inferencing.

Businessmodel of ManTech
Customer Segments
ManTech International provides a range of technologies and solutions, including security, software development, systems engineering and IT consulting services. The Company vast majority of the Company’s business comes through contracts with the US Government and its numerous agencies and public bodies. The Company’s major clients include:
- The Departments of Defense, State, Homeland Security, Health and Human Services, Veterans Affairs and Justice, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation;
- The Space Community; and
- Other US Government Bodies ManTech International has long-standing relationships with its government customers. For each of the last three years the Company has derived approximately 99% of its annual revenues from US Government customers, with at least 90% of revenues coming from national security and defense customers.
The Company’s customers are based almost exclusively in the US. It treats sales to US Government customers as sales within the US, regardless of where the services are performed.
Value Propositions
ManTech International provides value to its customers in the following ways:
- The reliability of its products and solutions, comprising a broad range of services that have proved to be sufficiently reliable and efficient to attract the recurring business of government clients;
- Its security and robust infrastructure, which is key when operating within the unforgiving national security sector;
- Its expertise, including specialist cyber security, consulting, engineering, and intelligence personnel; and
- Its commitment to innovation and development, ensuring that its products and services are consistently at the cutting edge so that its high-profile clients receive the best possible service. ### Channels
ManTech International operates a website at www.mantech.com, through which it provides information on its various products and services. The Company, however, does not operate an online sales channel.
With the majority of ManTech International’s business coming through government contracts, much of the Company’s business is secured by a devoted sales team through competitive government tenders and auctions. The Company employs a team specialised in dealing with government agencies.
The nature of ManTech International’s business does not lend itself to the use of channel partners, such as resellers and sales agents, with the majority of the Company’s contracts coming through official government channels.
Customer Relationships
While ManTech International has an online presence, its business model does not allow for it to simply provide solutions on a self-service basis. The Company has a devoted sales team that manages the process of bidding for and securing government contracts, which requires that the Company be compliant with a series of official regulations.
ManTech International deals directly with its customers, both public and commercial, consulting with them over a period of time in order to provide a bespoke solutions spanning its entire range of services and products.
ManTech International also provides ongoing support to its customers, with customers able to contact the Company directly through email and phone channels. The Company also operates social media accounts with Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
Key Activities
ManTech International Corporation is a technology and cyber security solutions company.
It provides a suite of technologies and solutions, primarily to national security programs and US Government agencies, including the intelligence community; the departments of Defense, State, Homeland Security, Health and Human Services, Veterans Affairs and Justice; and the space industry.
The Company’s information technology and technical services and solutions are principally provided under official contracts with the US Government, supporting specific national security assignments and providing services to more than 50 federal government agencies.
Its solutions and services include cybersecurity, software and systems development, enterprise information technology, multi-disciplined intelligence, program protection and mission assurance, systems engineering, test and evaluation, and command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance services.
Key Partners
ManTech International does not appear to operate a partner program, and its sales and distribution team does not appear to utilise the services of resellers, distributors and independent sales agents to any significant degree.
However, the Company does enter into occasional joint venture projects with other companies to bid jointly on and complete particular projects. These partners primarily comprise technology and cyber security firms that can provide complementary services to those provided by ManTech International.
In recent years, ManTech International has entered into a range of partnerships. The Company has joined the US Army’s Partnership for Youth Service, has collaborated with HortonWorks on government contracts, teamed up with Saffron Saffron to combat fraud in the financial services industry, and has launched a tie-up with UMD on a cyber security research project.
Key Resources
ManTech International’s key resources are its technology and cybersecurity solutions, its intellectual properties, its IT infrastructure, and its personnel – notably its security and technology specialist staff.
The Company owns a limited number of patents, and maintains a number of trademarks and service marks to identify and distinguish its goods and services. While the Company takes steps to protect its patents and marks, it does not consider its business to depend protection of its intellectual property. Searches of records published by the US Patent and Trademark Office identified no patent applications filed in the name of ManTech international.
Cost Structure
ManTech International incurs costs in the relation to the development of its products and solutions, the maintenance of its IT infrastructure, its participation in government tenders and contracts, and the retention of its personnel.
The Company accrues substantial general and administrative costs, paying the salaries and benefits of its 7,200 employees, and rent and utility fees in relation to its network of facilities, including offices, laboratories and warehouses.
Revenue Streams
ManTech International generates revenue through the provision of various cyber security and technology solutions, including security and intelligence, big data, supply chain management, and test and evaluation services. The Company’s revenue is generated through fees associated with the following contracts forms:
- Cost-reimbursable contracts
- Fixed-price contracts
- Time and materials contracts In 2015 ManTech International generated an annual revenue of $1.55 billion, down on the $1.77 billion recorded in 2014. The majority of the Company’s revenue, around 90.7%, was derived from contracts with US government agencies focused on national security. Around 20.7% was derived from contracts with federal civilian agencies, and approximately 1.1% was derived from contracts with state agencies, international agencies and commercial entities.
ManTech International’s dependence on government contracts means that its operational results are affected by US government spending levels in the areas of defense, federal health information technology, intelligence and homeland security.

var scoop = '';
The best way to get a basic understanding of these types of variable declarations is to see them in action. Follow the instructions below to enter the following code snippets into the console and then interact with them.
But first, a quick refresher on scope.
// Open your JavaScript console.
// Enter the following line of code:
var global = 'I am a global variable';
// Now let's make a function to create some scope.
function scopeMaker() {
var local = 'I am a local variable.'
console.log(global, 'logged from inside scopeMaker().')
console.log(local, 'logged from inside scopeMaker().')
}
scopeMaker();
// In your JavaScript console, type 'global' without the quotation marks so that you can inspect the value of the variable. Keep in mind that the console is globally scoped.
// 'global' works just fine.
// Now try the same thing with 'local'. It doesn't work because it is declared inside the function.
// What about let and const? For the purposes of global and local scope with functions, they work exactly the same. Both of the variables declared above could have been declared with let or const and nothing would have changed.
// Now let's look at how let and const are different.
// A key thing to know about let and const is that they are block scoped. In other words, any code block (not just functions) creates scope for variables declared with let and const. Try the following example by entering the code into your dev console.
const anotherGlobal = true;
if(anotherGlobal) {
console.log('Do global variables declared with const behave like other global variables with respect to scope?', anotherGlobal);
let anotherLocal = 'This is a local variable declared with let';
console.log(anotherLocal);
}
// Now try entering this in the console in the global scope:
console.log(anotherLocal);
// "Uncaught ReferenceError: anotherLocal is not defined"
// We've seen that before when trying to use a local variable outside of its scope. But in this case, the code block of the "if" statement created the scope, not the function.
// One more thing to try: attempt to reassign the variable declared with const:
anotherGlobal = 'foo';
// "Uncaught TypeError: Assignment to constant variable."
// Thus, the variable assigned with const cannot be reassigned. That's the basics of let and const.
// Which should you use? Depends. Read the articles linked in the README to gain a deeper understanding. For the purposes of this assignment, use "let" for everything.
// You're now ready to start working with the starter code. Do not forget to make a new branch and make a copy of that directory before working on it.

At the moment, my blog is basically a single page. This is boring, so let’s expand it to handle multiple pages. Also, each page should be templatized in turn, so that we can add a footer to handle analytics, comments, etc.
I’ll do this step by step. First, I’ll ignore the index page and just add support for the posts. So blog.hs
gets a new “match” rule.
match "posts/*" $ do
route $ setExtension "html"
compile $ pageCompiler
>>> applyTemplateCompiler "templates/post.html"
>>> relativizeUrlsCompiler
I modified index.markdown
to explicitly point to the two posts for now (i.e. this one and the previous one).
Also, I created templates/post.html
, which has some basic boilerplate difference from the template used to serve the index page :-

$$title$$

$$date$$

$$body$$
Ok, ghc --make blog.hs && ./blog preview
confirms that all is well.
I’ll be brief here, since you probably already know this, and this isn’t relevant to hakyll in anyway. There are many commenting systems out there, I found Disqus to be really quick to set up.
Enter your username, password, site url, and you’ll be shown a list of hosting platforms; just select Universal Code from the list, then copy-paste the javascript into the html footer of your post template. Done. Your posts now have comments!
Similarly, if you want to track site visits, Google Analytics is a quick solution. Sign up for a new account, enter the website name, and then get your “tracking code”, which is a bit of javascript you (again) tack on to the end of each post’s html.
At a minimum, we’d like to show the last few posts on the index page, and provide a link to the list of all posts.
Let’s do the second item first. To do this, we’ll create a pseudo-page that will be defined based on the list of posts found in the posts/
subdirectory.
(BTW this is heavily inspired by copy-pasted from this hakyll example)
Since we want to have a ‘list of posts’ on the index page as well, this common functionality can be abstracted out.
addPostList :: Compiler (Page String, [Page String]) (Page String)
addPostList = setFieldA "posts" $
arr (reverse . chronological)
>>> require "templates/postitem.html" (\p t -> map (applyTemplate t) p)
>>> arr mconcat
>>> arr pageBody
Now create a rudimentary html fragment that will hold the ‘post summary’

$ title $ - $ date $

Finally, to tie it together, add a match for posts.html
, which will be the entry point to show the list of all posts.
match "posts.html" $ route idRoute
create "posts.html" $ constA mempty
>>> arr (setField "title" "All posts")
>>> requireAllA "posts/*" addPostList
>>> applyTemplateCompiler "templates/posts.html"
>>> applyTemplateCompiler "templates/default.html"
>>> relativizeUrlsCompiler
Initially, I had some trouble getting this to work, for some reason the match "posts/*"
wasn’t working, and I commented out the match "index.html"
and retained the index.markdown
that I had.
Turned out to be another ommission on my part, I had to replace
match "index.html" $ do
create "index.html" $ constA mempty
with
match "index.html" $ route idRoute
create "index.html" $ constA mempty
… and then it works!
Getting the list of the last (say) 3 posts is achieved by having a line similar to the one in the handler for posts.html
, except instead of just
>>> requireAllA "posts/*" addPostList
we now have
>>> requireAllA "posts/*" (id *** arr (take 3 . reverse . chronological) >>> addPostList)
You probably know more about this than me, but if you don’t want a black-and white, crammed together bunch of text, you probably want atleast a couple of css rules for your headers and the body text etc. I cobbled together mine based on some random examples I found online, pick yours as you see fit.

Our wide brown land
Thank you for supporting our new series that shines the
spotlight on Australia's neglected environmental issues.
Australia’s fragile environment is under attack. Environmental protections have been dramatically eroded and funding slashed. The threat to climate change so dominates debate that other pressing and immediate environmental dangers struggle for attention. Few Australians know that our country has one of the worst records for species loss, with even the koala threatened; that microplastic pollution is so prevalent it can be found in the sediments of our river estuaries and nearby ocean floors; or that land clearing rates are just as severe as the notorious deforestation of the Brazilian Amazon.
We’re thrilled and grateful to have reached our funding target of $150,000. We’re just as inspired by all the suggestions for environmental issues that need our attention.
So over the next three months, thanks to your support, we will be able to report on the animals at the very edge of extinction, the ecological fallout from invasive plant species, the looming fracking crisis, the threats to our oceans and the plight of the Murray-Darling basin. Your support will help us move these most important of issues up the public agenda, empower those already taking a stand and challenge governments to do more.

D.E. Shaw gifts solar panel to Akshaya Patra Foundation
by Special CorrespondentD.E. Shaw-India has extended support to The Akshaya Patra Foundation by sponsoring a solar panel for its hybrid hot water application.
The solar panel was inaugurated at a special event held at the Akshaya Patra kitchen in Narsingi on Monday.
Akshaya Patra is working towards implementing a set-up that enables the pre-heating of cooking water by solar energy at its centralised kitchens. On an average, the foundation requires 20KL cooking water, which is boiled in batches of 100 litres throughout the day.
However, this new set-up will heat around 5KL water in one go and reduce the boiling time by 40%. This support from D.E. Shaw India will benefit the 22,000 children who receive meals from the Narsingi kitchen, said Satya Gaura Chandra Dasa, regional president of Akshaya Patra - Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
On behalf of D.E. Shaw India, Satish Shah, head of Human Capital, and Sneha Anand and Savisa Durani, CSR representatives for the company, attended the event. Rajini Sinha, State head of corporate partnerships, and Y.V. Sheshagiri Rao, GM-Operations at Narsingi, were present.

CHAPTER IX
(Delivered in London, 3rd November 1896)
"The Self-existent One projected the senses outwards and, therefore, a man looks outward, not within himself. A certain wise one, desiring immortality, with inverted senses, perceived the Self within." As I have already said, the first inquiry that we find in the Vedas was concerning outward things, and then a new idea came that the reality of things is not to be found in the external world; not by looking outwards, but by turning the eyes, as it is literally expressed, inwards. And the word used for the Soul is very significant: it is He who has gone inward, the innermost reality of our being, the heart centre, the core, from which, as it were, everything comes out; the central sun of which the mind, the body, the sense-organs, and everything else we have are but rays going outwards. "Men of childish intellect, ignorant persons, run after desires which are external, and enter the trap of far-reaching death, but the wise, understanding immortality, never seek for the Eternal in this life of finite things." The same idea is here made clear that in this external world, which is full of finite things, it is impossible to see and find the Infinite. The Infinite must be sought in that alone which is infinite, and the only thing infinite about us is that which is within us, our own soul.  The Seer, He to whom they all belong, the Soul of man, He who is awake in the internal man, alone is infinite, and to seek for the Infinite Cause of this whole universe we must go there. In the Infinite Soul alone we can find it. "What is here is there too, and what is there is here also. He who sees the manifold goes from death to death." We have seen how at first there was the desire to go to heaven. When these ancient Aryans became dissatisfied with the world around them, they naturally thought that after death they would go to some place where there would be all happiness without any misery; these places they multiplied and called Svargas — the word may be translated as heavens — where there would be joy for ever, the body would become perfect, and also the mind, and there they would live with their forefathers. But as soon as philosophy came, men found that this was impossible and absurd. The very idea of an infinite in place would be a contradiction in terms, as a place must begin and continue in time. Therefore they had to give up that idea. They found out that the gods who lived in these heavens had once been human beings on earth, who through their good works had become gods, and the godhoods, as they call them, were different states, different positions; none of the gods spoken of in the Vedas are permanent individuals.
For instance, Indra and Varuna are not the names of certain persons, but the names of positions as governors and so on. The Indra who had lived before is not the same person as the Indra of the present day; he has passed away, and another man from earth has filled his place.  In the old Rig-Veda we find the word "immortality" used with regard to these gods, but later on it is dropped entirely, for they found that immortality which is beyond time and space cannot be spoken of with regard to any physical form, however subtle it may be. However fine it may be, it must have a beginning in time and space, for the necessary factors that enter into the make-up of form are in space. Try to think of a form without space: it is impossible. Space is one of the materials, as it were, which make up the form, and this is continually changing Space and time are in Maya, and this idea is expressed in the line — "What is hole, that is there too." If there are these gods, they must be bound by the same laws that apply here, and all laws involve destruction and renewal again and again. These laws are moulding matter into different forms, and crushing them out again. Everything born must die; and so, if there are heavens, the same laws must hold good there.
In this world we find that all happiness is followed by misery as its shadow. Life has its shadow, death. They must go together, because they are not contradictory, not two separate existences, but different manifestations of the same unit, life and death, sorrow and happiness, good and evil. The dualistic conception that good and evil are two separate entities, and that they are both going on eternally is absurd on the face of it. They are the diverse manifestations of one and the same fact, one time appearing as bad, and at another time as good. The difference does not exist in kind, but only in degree. They differ from each other in degree of intensity. We find as a fact that the same nerve systems carry good and bad sensations alike, and when the nerves are injured, neither sensation comes to us. If a certain nerve is paralysed, we do not get the pleasurable feelings that used to come along that wires and at the same time we do not get the painful feelings either. They are never two, but the same. Again. the same thing produces pleasure and pain at different times of life. The same phenomenon will produce pleasure in one, and pain in another. The eating of meat produces pleasure to a man, but pain to the animal which is eaten. There has never been anything which gives pleasure to all alike. Some are pleased, others displeased. So on it will go. Therefore, this duality of existence is denied. And what follows? I told you in my last lecture that we can never have ultimately everything good on this earth and nothing bad. It may have disappointed and frightened some of you, but I cannot help it, and I am open to conviction when I am shown to the contrary; but until that can be proved to me, and I can find that it is true, I cannot say so.
The general argument against my statement, and apparently a very convincing one, is this that in the course of evolution, all that is evil in what we see around us is gradually being eliminated, and the result is that if this elimination continues for millions of years, a time will come when all the evil will have been extirpated, and the good alone will remain. This is apparently a very sound argument. Would to God it were true! But there is a fallacy in it, and it is this that it takes for granted that both good and evil are things that are eternally fixed. It takes for granted that there is a definite mass of evil, which may be represented by a hundred, and likewise of good, and that this mass of evil is being diminished every day, leaving only the good. But is it so? The history of the world shows that evil is a continuously increasing quantity, as well as good. Take the lowest man; he lives in the forest. His sense of enjoyment is very small, and so also is his power to suffer. His misery is entirely on the sense-plane. If he does not get plenty of food, he is miserable; but give him plenty of food and freedom to rove and to hunt, and he is perfectly happy. His happiness consists only in the senses, and so does his misery also. But if that man increases in knowledge, his happiness will increase, the intellect will open to him, and his sense-enjoyment will evolve into intellectual enjoyment. He will feel pleasure in reading a beautiful poem, and a mathematical problem will be of absorbing interest to him. But, with these, the inner nerves will become more and more susceptible to miseries of mental pain, of which the savage does not think. Take a very simple illustration. In Tibet there is no marriage, and there is no jealousy, yet we know that marriage is a much higher state. The Tibetans have not known the wonderful enjoyment, the blessing of chastity, the happiness of having a chaste, virtuous wife, or a chaste, virtuous husband. These people cannot feel that. And similarly they do not feel the intense jealousy of the chaste wife or husband, or the misery caused by unfaithfulness on either side, with all the heart-burnings and sorrows which believers in chastity experience. On one side, the latter gain happiness, but on the other, they suffer misery too.
Take your country which is the richest in the world, and which is more luxurious than any other, and see how intense is the misery, how many more lunatics you have, compared with other races, only because the desires are so keen. A man must keep up a high standard of living, and the amount of money he spends in one year would be a fortune to a man in India. You cannot preach to him of simple living because society demands so much of him. The wheel of society is rolling on; it stops not for the widow's tears or the orphans' wails. This is the state of things everywhere. Your sense of enjoyment is developed, your society is very much more beautiful than some others. You have so many more things to enjoy. But those who have fewer have much less misery. You can argue thus throughout, the higher the ideal you have in the brain, the greater is your enjoyment, and the more profound your misery. One is like the shadow of the other. That the evils are being eliminated may be true, but if so, the good also must be dying out. But are not evils multiplying fast, and good diminishing, if I may so put it? If good increases in arithmetical progression, evil increase in geometrical progression. And this is Maya. This is neither optimism nor pessimism. Vedanta does not take the position that this world is only a miserable one. That would be untrue. At the same time, it is a mistake to say that this world is full of happiness and blessings. So it is useless to tell children that this world is all good, all flowers, all milk and honey. That is what we have all dreamt. At the same time it is erroneous to think, because one man has suffered more than another, that all is evil. It is this duality, this play of good and evil that makes our world of experiences. At the same time the Vedanta says, "Do not think that good and evil are two, are two separate essences, for they are one and the same thing, appearing in different degrees and in different guises and producing differences of feeling in the same mind." So, the first thought of the Vedanta is the finding of unity in the external; the One Existence manifesting Itself, however different It may appear in manifestation. Think of the old crude theory of the Persians — two gods creating this world, the good god doing everything that is good, and the bad one, everything bad. On the very face of it, you see the absurdity, for if it be carried out, every law of nature must have two parts, one of which is manipulated by one god, and then he goes away and the other god manipulates the other part. There the difficulty comes that both are working in the same world, and these two gods keep themselves in harmony by injuring one portion and doing good to another. This is a crude case, of course, the crudest way of expressing the duality of existence. But, take the more advanced, the more abstract theory that this world is partly good and partly bad. This also is absurd, arguing from the same standpoint. It is the law of unity that gives us our food, and it is the same law that kills many through accidents or misadventure.
We find, then, that this world is neither optimistic nor pessimistic; it is a mixture of both, and as we go on we shall find that the whole blame is taken away from nature and put upon our own shoulders. At the same time the Vedanta shows the way out, but not by denial of evil, because it analyses boldly the fact as it is and does not seek to conceal anything. It is not hopeless; it is not agnostic. It finds out a remedy, but it wants to place that remedy on adamantine foundations: not by shutting the child's mouth and blinding its eyes with something which is untrue, and which the child will find out in a few days. I remember when I was young, a young man's father died and left him poorly off, with a large family to support, and he found that his father's friends were unwilling to help him. He had a conversation with a clergyman who offered this consolation, "Oh, it is all good, all is sent for our good." That is the old method of trying to put a piece of gold leaf on an old sore. It is a confession of weakness, of absurdity. The young man went away, and six months afterwards a son was born to the clergyman, and he gave a thanksgiving party to which the young man was invited. The clergyman prayed, "Thank God for His mercies." And the young man stood up and said, "Stop, this is all misery." The clergyman asked, "Why?" "Because when my father died you said it was good, though apparently evil; so now, this is apparently good, but really evil." Is this the way to cure the misery of the world? Be good and have mercy on those who suffer. Do not try to patch it up, nothing will cure this world; go beyond it.
This is a world of good and evil. Wherever there is good, evil follows, but beyond and behind all these manifestations, all these contradictions, the Vedanta finds out that Unity. It says, "Give up what is evil and give up what is good." What remains then? Behind good and evil stands something which is yours, the real you, beyond every evil, and beyond every good too, and it is that which is manifesting itself as good and bad. Know that first, and then and then alone you will be a true optimist, and not before; for then you will be able to control everything. Control these manifestations and you will be at liberty to manifest the real "you". First be master of yourself, stand up and be free, go beyond the pale of these laws, for these laws do not absolutely govern you, they are only part of your being. First find out that you are not the slave of nature, never were and never will be; that this nature, infinite as you may think it, is only finite, a drop in the ocean, and your Soul is the ocean; you are beyond the stars, the sun, and the. They are like mere bubbles compared with your infinite being. Know that, and you will control both good and evil. Then alone the whole vision will change and you will stand up and say, "How beautiful is good and how wonderful is evil!"
That is what the Vedanta teaches. It does not propose any slipshod remedy by covering wounds with gold leaf and the more the wound festers, putting on more gold leaf. This life is a hard fact; work your way through it boldly, though it may be adamantine; no matter, the soul is stronger.  You make yourselves suffer, you make good and evil, and it is you who put your hands before your eyes and say it is dark. Take your hands away and see the light; you are effulgent, you are perfect already, from the very beginning. We now understand the verse: "He goes from death to death who sees the many here." See that One and be free.
How are we to see it? This mind, so deluded, so weak, so easily led, even this mind can be strong and may catch a glimpse of that knowledge, that Oneness, which saves us from dying again and again. As rain falling upon a mountain flows in various streams down the sides of the mountain, so all the energies which you see here are from that one Unit. It has become manifold falling upon Maya. Do not run after the manifold; go towards the One. "He is in all that moves; He is in all that is pure; He fills the universe; He is in the sacrifice; He is the guest in the house; He is in man, in water, in animals, in truth; He is the Great One. As fire coming into this world is manifesting itself in various forms, even so, that one Soul of the universe is manifesting Himself in all these various forms. As air coming into this universe manifests itself in various forms, even so, the One Soul of all souls, of all beings, is manifesting Himself in all forms." This is true for you when you have understood this Unity, and not before Then is all optimism, because He is seen everywhere. The question is that if all this be true that that Pure One — the Self, the Infinite — has entered all this, how is it that He suffers, how is it that He becomes miserable, impure? He does not, says the Upanishad. "As the sun is the cause of the eyesight of every being, yet is not made defective by the defect in any eye, even so the Self of all is not affected by the miseries of the body, or by any misery that is around you." I may have some disease and see everything yellow, but the sun is not affected by it. "He is the One, the Creator of all, the Ruler of all, the Internal Soul of every being — He who makes His Oneness manifold. Thus sages who realise Him as the Soul of their souls, unto them belongs eternal peace; unto none else, unto none else. He who in this world of evanescence finds Him who never changes, he who in this universe of death finds that One Life, he who in this manifold finds that Oneness, and all those who realise Him as the Soul of their souls, to them belongs eternal peace; unto none else, unto none else. Where to find Him in the external world, where to find Him in the suns, and moons, and stars? There the sun cannot illumine, nor the moon, nor the stars, the flash of lightning cannot illumine the place; what to speak of this mortal fire? He shining, everything else shines. It is His light that they have borrowed, and He is shining through them." Here is another beautiful simile. Those of you who have been in India and have seen how the banyan tree comes from one root and spreads itself far around, will understand this. He is that banyan tree; He is the root of all and has branched out until He has become this universe, and however far He extends, every one of these trunks and branches is connected.
Various heavens are spoken of in the Br‚hmana portions of the Vedas, but the philosophical teaching of the Upanishads gives up the idea of going to heaven. Happiness is not in this heaven or in that heaven, it is in the soul; places do not signify anything. Here is another passage which shows the different states of realisation "In the heaven of the forefathers, as a man sees things in a dream, so the Real Truth is seen." As in dreams we see things hazy and not so distinct, so we see the Reality there. There is another heaven called the Gandharva, in which it is still less clear; as a man sees his own reflection in the water, so is the Reality seen there. The highest heaven, of which the Hindus conceive is called the Brahmaloka; and in this, the Truth is seen much more clearly, like light and shade, but not yet quite distinctly. But as a man sees his own face in a mirror, perfect, distinct, and clear, so is the Truth shining in the soul of man. The highest heaven, therefore, is in our own souls; the greatest temple of worship is the human soul, greater than all heavens, says the Vedanta; for in no heaven anywhere, can we understand the reality as distinctly and clearly as in this life, in our own soul. Changing places does not help one much. I thought while I was in India that the cave would give me clearer vision. I found it was not so. Then I thought the forest would do so, then, Varanasi. But the same difficulty existed everywhere, because we make our own worlds. If I am evil, the whole world is evil to me. That is what the Upanishad says. And the same thing applies to all worlds. If I die and go to heaven, I should find the same, for until I am pure it is no use going to caves, or forests, or to Varanasi, or to heaven, and if I have polished my mirror, it does not matter where I live, I get the Reality just as It is. So it is useless, running hither and thither, and spending energy in vain, which should be spent only in polishing the mirror. The same idea is expressed again: "None sees Him, none sees His form with the eyes. It is in the mind, in the pure mind, that He is seen, and this immortality is gained."
Those who were at the summer lectures on R‚ja-Yoga will be interested to know that what was taught then was a different kind of Yoga. The Yoga which we are now considering consists chiefly in controlling the senses. When the senses are held as slaves by the human soul, when they can no longer disturb the mind, then the Yogi has reached the goal. "When all vain desires of the heart have been given up, then this very mortal becomes immortal, then he becomes one with God even here. When all the knots of the heart are cut asunder, then the mortal becomes immortal, and he enjoys Brahman here." Here, on this earth, nowhere else.
A few words ought to be said here. You will generally hear that this Vedanta, this philosophy and other Eastern systems, look only to something beyond, letting go the enjoyments and struggle of this life. This idea is entirely wrong.  On the contrary, we read in our scriptures that our philosophers do not want to go to other worlds, but depreciate them as places where people weep and laugh for a little while only and then die. As long as we are weak we shall have to go through these experiences; but whatever is true, is here, and that is the human soul. And this also is insisted upon, that by committing suicide, we cannot escape the inevitable; we cannot evade it. But the right path is hard to find. The Hindu is just as practical as the Western, only we differ in our views of life. The one says, build a good house, let us have good clothes and food, intellectual culture, and so on, for this is the whole of life; and in that he is immensely practical. But the Hindu says, true knowledge of the world means knowledge of the soul, metaphysics; and he wants to enjoy that life. In America there was a great agnostic, a very noble man, a very good man, and a very fine speaker. He lectured on religion, which he said was of no use; why bother our heads about other worlds? He employed this simile; we have an orange here, and we want to squeeze all the juice out of it. I met him once and said, "I agree with you entirely. I have some fruit, and I too want to squeeze out the juice. Our difference lies in the choice of the fruit. You want an orange, and I prefer a mango. You think it is enough to live here and eat and drink and have a little scientific knowledge; but you have no right to say that that will suit all tastes. Such a conception is nothing to me. If I had only to learn how an apple falls to the ground, or how an electric current shakes my nerves, I would commit suicide. I want to understand the heart of things, the very kernel itself.  My philosophy says you must know that and drive out from your mind all thoughts of heaven and hell and all other superstitions, even though they exist in the same sense that this world exists. I must know the heart of this life, its very essence, what it is, not only how it works and what are its manifestations. I want the why of everything, I leave the how to children. As one of your countrymen said, 'While I am smoking a cigarette, if I were to write a book, it would be the science of the cigarette.' It is good and great to be scientific, God bless them in their search; but when a man says that is all, he is talking foolishly, not caring to know the raison d'Ítre of life, never studying existence itself. I may argue that all your knowledge is nonsense, without a basis. You are studying the manifestations of life, and when I ask you what life is, you say you do not know. You are welcome to your study, but leave me to mine."
I am practical, very practical, in my own way. So your idea that only the West is practical is nonsense. You are practical in one way, and I in another. There are different types of men and minds. If in the East a man is told that he will find out the truth by standing on one leg all his life, he will pursue that method. If in the West men hear that there is a gold mine somewhere in an uncivilised country, thousands will face the dangers there, in the hope of getting the gold; and, perhaps, only one succeeds. The same men have heard that they have souls but are content to leave the care of them to the church. The first man will not go near the savages, he says it may be dangerous. But if we tell him that on the top of a high mountain lives a wonderful sage who can give him knowledge of the soul, he tries to climb up to him, even if he be killed in the attempt. Both types of men are practical, but the mistake lies in regarding this world as the whole of life. Yours is the vanishing point of enjoyment of the senses — there is nothing permanent in it, it only brings more and more misery — while mine brings eternal peace.
I do not say your view is wrong, you are welcome to it. Great good and blessing come out of it, but do not, therefore, condemn my view. Mine also is practical in its own way. Let us all work on our own plans. Would to God all of us were equally practical on both sides. I have seen some scientists who were equally practical, both as scientists and as spiritual men, and it is my great hope that in course of time the whole of humanity will be efficient in the same manner. When a kettle of water is coming to the boil, if you watch the phenomenon, you find first one bubble rising, and then another and so on, until at last they all join, and a tremendous commotion takes place. This world is very similar. Each individual is like a bubble, and the nations, resemble many bubbles. Gradually these nations are joining, and I am sure the day will come when separation will vanish and that Oneness to which we are all going will become manifest. A time must come when every man will be as intensely practical in the scientific world as in the spiritual, and then that Oneness, the harmony of Oneness, will pervade the whole world. The whole of mankind will become Jivanmuktas — free whilst living. We are all struggling towards that one end through our jealousies and hatreds, through our love and co-operation. A tremendous stream is flowing towards the ocean carrying us all along with it; and though like straws and scraps of paper we may at times float aimlessly about, in the long run we are sure to join the Ocean of Life and Bliss.

An endpoint object represents a source or destination of MIDI data. It can correspond to either a physical device such as a port on a MIDI interface, or to a source or destination within another MIDI application.
Real endpoints correspond to physical devices or sources/destinations created by other MIDI applications on the system.
Virtual endpoints, on the other hand, are endpoints that you create and that appear in other applications as sources and destinations. They allow you to communicate with other applications as though your application were a physical device.
Real endpoints are represented by objects of the PYMIDIRealDestination and PYMIDIRealSource classes. The MIDI Manager is responsible for creating and managing objects of these classes - you never instantiate them yourself.
Virtual endpoints are represented by objects of the
PYMIDIVirtualDestination and PYMIDIVirtualSource classes. These
can be created using the initWithName:
initializer.
Note that the terminology can be slightly confusing in that a PYMIDIVirtualSource appears as a source to other applications, not to your own. Your own application must send data to the virtual source (as though it were destination.) That data can then be received by other applications. The reverse is true for virtual destinations.

This operator acts similarly to the "Fast Run" operator, except that it is able to run multiple inputs on a machine and acceptance traces cannot be viewed. The inputs to run are entered in a table. The left column of the table holds the inputs.
When the "Run Inputs" button is pressed, the right column of the table reports whether that input was accepted or not. The "Clear" button will delete all inputs. The "Enter Lambda" will blank the currently selected input, acting as though nothing were truly entered in that part of the table. The "View Trace" button returns a trace of the last configuration generated for a run.
There may be an arbitrary number of inputs. Similar to grammar input, when the last row of the table is edited, a new row will be added. Additionally, the input entries will be remembered between separate multiple input runs; this is useful if a user wants to check a batch of inputs on a variety of machines without having to retype the inputs, which is useful for grading purposes (for example).
The alternate "Multiple Run (Transducer)" action is applicable only to Turing machines, and behaves similarly to the regular multiple runs, except it produces not only whether the machine accepted, but also the output from each of the tapes. In other words, it runs the Turing machine as a transducer that not only accepts a given input but modifies it. The output for a tape is defined to be the contents of the tape from the symbol under tape head, and all symbols to the right of the tape head until the next blank tape symbol.

Warren Gatland reveals Wayne Pivac wasn't initially meant to be in charge of Wales on Saturday
Gatland says he intervened as he thought it was really important for Pivac
by Jon DoelWarren Gatland has revealed Wayne Pivac wasn't initially supposed to be in charge of Wales on Saturday when they face the Barbarians.
Pivac makes his bow as Wales rugby coach at the Principality Stadium, going up against the man he replaced.
And Gatland has now revealed the plan had first been for him to coach Wales for one final time.
Asked about Pivac's new regime, he said: "He needs a little bit of time to put his own personality onto it and his own imprint on the game, working with the other coaches, gelling together, and that takes some time.
"That was why I felt it was really important to have this game. Initially, when I was told about this game going ahead, the idea was that it was going to be my last game in charge of Wales.
"I just felt that it was not right for that to happen. I was finished after the Rugby World Cup and it was a great chance for the new coaching team to come in and to get some time with the players.
"This will give them a good chance to assess those players and help them build for the Six Nations, and I just felt that was really important.
"Rather than the Barbarians asking me, I had to ask the Barbarians if I could coach them against Wales! It was important for Wales and for the new management team too."

US and Australian hostages freed after Taliban prisoners released
American Kevin King and Australian Timothy Weeks are both professors at the American University of Kabul.
The Taliban said they have freed an American and an Australian hostage held since 2016 in exchange for three top Taliban figures who were released by the Kabul government and flown out of Afghanistan the previous day.
The hostages, American Kevin King and Australian Timothy Weeks, were released in southern Zabul province, ending their more than three years in captivity.
The release took place in the province’s Now Bahar district, a region largely under Taliban control, according to a Taliban official.
It was not immediately known if the two hostages, both professors at the American University of Kabul, were handed over to Afghan government representatives, intermediaries or US forces.
Their freedom came hours after the Afghan government freed three Taliban prisoners and sent them to Qatar.
They included Anas Haqqani, the younger brother of the Taliban’s deputy Sirajuddin Haqqani, who also leads the fearsome Haqqani network.
It appears the Taliban had refused to hand over the two professors until they received proof their men had reached Qatar.
Afghan President Ashraf Ghani a week ago announced the “conditional release” of the Taliban figures, saying at a press event broadcast live on state television that it was a very hard decision he felt he had to make in the interest of the Afghan people.
Mr King and Mr Weeks were abducted in 2016 outside the American University in Kabul.
The following year, the Taliban released two videos showing the captives.
A January 2017 video showed them appearing pale and gaunt.
In the later video, Mr King and Mr Weeks looked healthier and said a deadline for their release was set for June 16 that year.
Both said they were being treated well by the Taliban but that they remained prisoners and appealed to their governments to help set them free.
It was impossible to know whether they were forced to speak.
Subsequently, US officials said that American forces had launched a rescue mission to free the two, but the captives were not found at the raided location.
US secretary of state Mike Pompeo and US national security adviser Robert O’Brien made separate calls to Mr Ghani on Monday to discuss the prisoners’ release, Mr Ghani’s spokesman Sediq Sediqqi said.
The release and swap were intended to try to restart talks to end Afghanistan’s 18-year war and allow for the eventual withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan.
The United States had been close to an agreement in September with the Taliban but a fresh wave of violence in the Afghan capital that killed a US soldier brought talks and an impending deal to a grinding halt.
The agreement called for direct talks between the Taliban and Afghan government as well as other prominent Afghans to find a negotiated end to the war and set out a road map for what a post-war Afghanistan would look like.
In his discussions with Mr Pompeo and Mr O’Brien, Mr Ghani said he wanted a reduction in violence and an all-out ceasefire, his spokesman said.
According to a US State Department statement, Mr Pompeo told Mr Ghani the United States was “committed to work closely together to address violence if the president’s decision does not produce the intended results”.
