FEAR RATING: 7.5 / 10 --> Re-watchable
Review Date: April 4, 1998 Director: James Foley Writer: Christopher Crowe Producers: Brian Grazer, Ric Kidney Actors: Mark Wahlberg as David McCall Reese Witherspoon as Nicole Walker William L. Peterson as Steve Walker Amy Brenneman as Laura Walker Alyssa Milano as Margo Masse Genre: Thriller Year of Release: 1996
A thriller set in modern day Seattle, that marked Marky Mark's migration from the "Good Vibrations" and "Calvin Klein undie ad" guy, to Mark Wahlberg, thespian-at-large, and a mighty good one at that.
PLOT: Boy (Wahlberg) meets girl (Witherspoon). Boy likes girl. Girl likes boy. Boy and girl begin dating. Parents of girl aren't crazy about the boy. Girl steps to boy's defense. Family problems occur. Girl learns more about the boy. Boy goes nuts. Fun ensues.
CRITIQUE: Ever wonder what would happen if your better half turned out to be someone other than the person that you had come to cherish and love? Well, if you ever have, then this film is definitely for you. It isn't the most original premise in the world, but it is handled pretty well here, and pretty quickly for that matter (a speedy 90 minutes). I think one of the main reasons this film worked for me is the groundbreaking performance by Mark Wahlberg (of BOOGIE NIGHTS infamy (7.5/10). He completely captured all the goodness, and badness, of the main character of this film, and always kept me wanting to see more and more of him (his performance scored him a solid nomination from his core target audience, as "best villain" at the 1997 MTV Movie Awards).
The soundtrack is also very effective in this setting, and of course, the slutty performance by Alyssa Milano is something we could all indulge in (look for the nice bikini and butt shots...if you're into that kind of thing, that is :). I didn't much care for the father/David relationship which seemed to be a little too contrived, but for the most part, I was really into this movie. Then again, daddy dearest did have one of the coolest lines in the movie when his wife is asking him what the "big deal" was about his daughter dating David. His reply: "The big deal is that the guy gives me the creeps, and the girl is my daughter."
Good point.
All in all, the movie kicked some fun ass, mindless as it was, and effectively demonstrated every parent's worst nightmare.  And on a personal note, we finally decided to add some Taco meat onto our nacho fiesta of usual, and let me tell you all...it was a flaming success !! Another firm recommendation by Joe Schmoe!
Little Known Facts: Director James Foley was the man responsible for the critically acclaimed GLENGARRY GLENROSS (8/10) back in 1992, AT CLOSE RANGE (7.5/10) in 1986, and even directed an episode of TWIN PEAKS in 1990. Mark Wahlberg stands 5"9, is born in Massachusetts, dropped out of highschool (later got his GED), and was convicted of several minor felonies before starting his career as the lead singer of Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. His brother is Donnie Wahlberg of New Kids on the Block fame. He is also testing the waters on the acting front.

Below is a default bar plot. Bars will highlight on mouseover. Events are triggered when you mouseover a bar and also when you click on a bar. Here We capture the 'jqplotDataClick' event and display the clicked series index, point index and data values. When series data is assigned as a 1-dimensional array as in this example, jqPlot automatically converts it into a 2-dimensional array for plotting. So a series defined as [2, 6, 7, 10] will become [[1,2], [2,6], [3,7], [4,10]].
The plot target also fires a 'jqplotDataMouseOver' when the cursor is moused over a bar even if highlighting is turned off. This event will fire continuously as the user mouses over the bar. 'jqplotDataHighlight' fires only once when the user first passes over the bar. Additionally, a 'jqplotDataUnhighlight' event is fired when the user moves out of a bar (if highlighting is enabled).
The next example has the plot's 'captureRightClick' option set to true. This causes the plot to fire a 'jqplotRightClick' event the the user clicks the right mouse button over a bar. Here, the 'highlightMouseDown' option is also set to true. This will highlight a slice on mouse down instead of on move over. Highlighting will occur for either left or right click.
A pie chart is added to test for incompatibilities.
The nex example shows the placement of point labels on negative bars. They shou be placed on the opposite position. That is, if it is placed 'north' to the positive bars, then it should be placed 'south' to the negative bars.

Separating your code into independent modules boils down to segmenting the space of variable names into subspaces that overlap to the extent you want. We will discuss how J handles namespaces, and then see how this corresponds to the classes and objects provided by C++.
A reminder on nomenclature: private names are assigned with =. and are visible only to the entity they are assigned in; public names are visible to all entities.
Every public named entity in J is a member of a single locale. Each locale has a name which is a list of characters. A locative is a name containing a simple name (the only kind of name we have encountered so far) and an explicit locale, in one of the two forms simplename_localename_ and simplename__var . In the form simplename_localename_, localename is the name of the explicit locale; in the form simplename__var, the variable var must be a scalar boxed string whose opened contents provide the name of the explicit locale. Examples:
abc_z_ is simple name abc and locale z
vv =. <'lname'
def__vv is simple name def and locale lname
Note that a simple name may contain an underscore; it may not end with an underscore or contain two underscores in a row.
(Note: J makes a distinction between named locales whose names are valid J variable names not including an underscore, and numbered locales whose names are strings representing nonnegative decimal integers with no leading zeroes. The difference between the two is small: numbered locales use slightly less memory, and numbered locales must be created in ascending numerical order. Numbered locales are created when you use conew to create an object, as we will discuss below).
The current locale is a value kept by J and used to influence the processing of names. We will learn what causes it to change. The current locale is the name of a locale. When J starts, the current locale is set to 'base' .
An assignment is private if it is of the form simplename=.value and is executed while an explicit definition is running (an explicit definition is the result of the : conjunction, for example a verb defined by 3 : 'text' or verb define, or a modifier defined by conjunction define or adverb define). An entity assigned by private assignment is not part of any locale and is accessible only by sentences executed by the explicit definition that was running when the entity was assigned. The idea is this: there is a pushdown stack of namespaces in which private entities are assigned. When an explicit definition E is executed, it starts with a new empty namespace that will be destroyed when E finishes. Any private assignments made while E is running are made in this private namespace. Any private variables referred to by E or by tacitly-defined entities invoked by E are taken from this private namespace. If E invokes another explicit definition F, F starts off with its own private namespace and has no access to elements of E's private namespace. When F finishes, returning control to E, F's private namespace is destroyed. E is said to be suspended while F is running.
Assignments that are not private (because they assign to a locative, use =:, or are executed when no explicit definition is running) are public. Assignment to a locative creates an entity having the simple name in the locative, residing in the explicit locale given by the locative. A public assignment to a simple name creates the named entity in the current locale. Entities in a locale are not affected by completion of an explicit definition; they have a life of their own and can be referred to by any verb that knows how to reach the locale they are in. The following examples illustrate assignments; the interpretation given is correct if the lines are entered from the keyboard:
simp1 =. 5 NB. public (outside of explicit definition)
vb1 =: verb define NB. public
isimp =. simp1 NB. private, referring to public simp1
simp1 =. 8 NB. private (=. inside definition)
loc1_z_ =. 10 NB. public (locative)
simp2 =: 12 NB. public (=:)
isimp,simp1 NB. result
)
vb1 '' NB. execute vb1, see result
5 8
Note that simp1 was set to 8 by the explicit definition. Because this was a private assignment, the public value was not changed:
simp1
5
The public value is still 5, as it was before the explicit definition was executed.
loc1_z_
10
simp2
12
The other public assignments leave their results in the locale they were assigned to.
isimp
|value error: isimp
The entities assigned by private assignment were destroyed when vb1 finished.
Note that the load verb (which runs scripts) is an explicit definition. Any assignment using =. executed during load will be lost. Use =: to define names in scripts.
Names and locatives used to refer to entities look just like names appearing as targets of assignments, but reference is more complicated than assignment because referencing conducts a search through several namespaces in order.
First, the name is sought in the private namespace of the executing entity. If the name is found, its private value is used.
If the name is not found as a private name (because it has not been assigned as a private name, or there is no executing entity, or the name is a locative), it is sought as a public name in the locales, as explained in the next section.
Note that the same name can exist as a private name and a public name. It is not unusual or harmful for an entity to use a private name, blissfully unaware that the same name is public in some locale. The converse situation is not so benign: if an entity creates a private name and subsequently makes a public assignment to the name, as in
name =. 5
...
name =: 7
the odds are that this is a mistake, because any reference to name is going to use the private version. The interpreter treats this case, where a global assignment is made to a name already defined locally, as a domain error. If you really need to perform the assignment (perhaps you want to have the value available for inspection after the function finishes), assign to a locative rather than a simple name: name__ =: or name_locale_ =: .
Referencing a Public Name: The Search Path
Each locale has a search path (usually called simply the path) which is a list of boxed locale names. The path is set and queried by the foreign 18!:2 which goes by the alias copath . Examples:
('loc1';'loc2';'z') 18!:2 <'loc3'
Sets the path for locale 'loc3' to 'loc1' followed by 'loc2' (and the obligatory 'z').
copath <'loc3'
+----+----+-+
|loc1|loc2|z|
+----+----+-+
Queries the path for 'loc3' .
Every reference to a public name implicitly uses a path. A reference to a locative looks for the simple name in the locative's explicit locale; if the name is not found there, the locales in the path of the explicit locale are examined one by one until the simple name is found (if the name is not found in any locale in the path, it is an undefined name). A reference to a simple name that was not found as a private name is similar, starting in the current locale and continuing if necessary in the locales in the current locale's path; in other words, a simple name that is not found as a private name is treated as if it were written simplename_currentlocale_ .
Note that only the path of the starting locale (either the current locale or the explicit locale) specifies the search order. No other paths are used.
Examples of references:
('loc1';'loc2';'z') 18!:2 <'loc3'
a_loc1_ =: 'a'
a_loc2_ =: 'b'
c_loc3_ =: 'c'
c_loc2_ =: 'd'
a_loc3_
a
The name was not defined in 'loc3' so the path was used, and the name was found in 'loc1' .
a_loc2_
b
The value in 'loc2' can be retrieved if we start the search there.
c_loc3_
c
If the value is found in the starting locale, no search is performed.
c_loc1_
|value error: c_loc1_
We have not defined a path for 'loc1', so 'loc2' is not searched.
The current locale can be changed in two ways: explicitly by executing the cocurrent verb, and implicitly by executing a verb named by a locative.
cocurrent y
sets the current locale to y .
Simple as that. cocurrent
uses the foreign 18!:4 . Do not use 18!:4 directly! It is intended to be used under an alias, and
it has side effects.
Executing an entity named by a locative (almost always a verb, but it could be a modifier as well) saves the current locale, changes the current locale to the explicit locale of the locative before starting the entity, and resets the current locale to the saved value when the entity finishes. Note that the entity always runs in the explicit locale of the locative, even if the search for the name found the entity in some other locale in the search path.
Whenever a named entity finishes execution, the locale is restored to its original value, even if the entity changed the current locale.
Here is an extended example of actions affecting the current locale: We load a utility file:
load 'printf'
We establish the search paths we want, and display the name of the current locale:
('loc1';'loc2';'z') 18!:2 <'loc3'
('loc2';'z') 18!:2 <'loc1'
18!:5 ''
+----+
|base|
+----+
Next we define two verbs.
v1_z_ =: verb define
'Locale at start of v1 is %j' printf 18!:5 ''
qprintf 'n1 '
v2_result =. v2_loc1_ n1
'Value returned by v2 is %s' printf <v2_result
'Locale in v1 after calling v2 is %j' printf 18!:5 ''
qprintf 'n1 '
)
cocurrent <'loc2'
v2 =: verb define
'Locale at start of v2 is %j' printf 18!:5 ''
qprintf 'n1 y '
cocurrent <'loc2'
qprintf 'n1 '
'Locale at end of v2 is %j' printf 18!:5 ''
n1
)
The verb v1 was defined in locale 'z' because it was an assignment to a locative; the verb v2 was defined in locale 'loc2' because it was an assignment to a simple name and the current locale at the time of its assignment was 'loc2' .
cocurrent <'loc3'
v2 =: [:
Now the verb v2 is defined, with different values, in locales 'loc2' and 'loc3' . Next we define the noun n1 in each of our locales, so we can see which locale a name was found in:
n1_loc1_ =: 'n1 in loc1'
n1_loc2_ =: 'n1 in loc2'
n1_loc3_ =: 'n1 in loc3'
Now run the verbs. I will insert interpretation of the execution.
v1 ''
J searches for the simple name v1 in the current locale 'loc3'; not finding it there it looks in 'loc1', 'loc2', and 'z', finally finding it in 'z' . J executes the definition of the verb found in 'z', but without changing the current locale.
Locale at start of v1 is loc3
Yes, the current locale is still 'loc3' ...
n1=n1 in loc3
...and a name lookup uses the current locale as the starting point.
Locale at start of v2 is loc1
v1 has executed v2_loc1_ . J starts searching for the name v2 in locale 'loc1' and its path, eventually finding it in 'z' . v2 is executed, using the definition found in 'z', but with the current locale set to the explicit locale of the locative, namely 'loc1' . Note that v2 was also defined in 'loc3' (as [: which would give an error), but 'loc3' was never searched. The operand of v2 was n1; note that the lookup for n1 is completely independent of the lookup for v2; n1 is sought and found in 'loc3' and it is that value that becomes y at the start of execution of v2 .
n1=n1 in loc1 y=n1 in loc3
Simple name lookups start in the current locale 'loc1' . The private name y has the value it was given on entry.
n1=n1 in loc2
Here we have switched the current locale to 'loc2' using cocurrent, and the name is found in the new current locale.
Locale at end of v2 is loc2
Value returned by v2 is n1 in loc2
Here v2 has finished and control has returned to v1 . Note that the value returned by v2 is simply the result of the last sentence executed; it is a noun. Here it is the value of n1 at the end of v2, at which time the current locale was 'loc2' .
Locale in v1 after calling v2 is loc3
Note that when v2 finished the current locale was restored to its value before execution of v2 . The cocurrent in v2 has no effect once v2 finishes.
n1=n1 in loc3
Execution of the verb v1 is complete. We should be back in locale 'loc3' from which we executed v1 :
18!:5 ''
+----+
|loc3|
+----+
True Globals--The Shared Locale 'z'
It is a J convention, universally adhered to, that every locale's search path must end with the locale 'z' . Any name in the 'z' locale can then be referred to by a simple name from any locale, making names in the 'z' locale truly global names.
Using Locales--Object-Oriented Programming
You have my sympathy for having to read through that detailed description of name processing; I refuse to apologize, though, because you really can't write programs if you don't know what names mean. But, you wonder, How do I use locales?
Object-Oriented Programming in J: Base Classes
You won't go far wrong to think of a locale as akin to a class in C++. When you have a set of functions that go together as a module, define all their verbs and nouns in a single locale. The easiest way to do this is to put a line
coclass <'localename'
at the beginning of each source file for the module (coclass is like cocurrent but it supports inheritance). Then, every public assignment in the file will automatically be made in the locale localename .
The simplest kind of module, comprising a set of routines and some private data storage, is called a base class. A typical base class is shown in Figure 1. It is a class to manage an execution log. Programs make calls to addlog to append information to the log. A call to setmodule saves a module name to be appended to each log item. A call to readlog returns the most recent log entries.

|
Figure 1. Sample class definition: execution checkpoint logging |
The first line of the module establishes the locale for the class. Next come the initializations, which are normally just public assignments that initialize the nouns used by the class.
The one-time initializations are an optional element used mainly during debugging. If you are debugging code and you reload the script that defines a class, all the initializations will be performed again. This may destroy values that have been assigned by calls to the class. To preserve existing definitions, use the InitIfUndef adverb defined in jforc.ijs. If the name has been defined already, it is not changed, but if it is not defined it is given an initial value.
The methods are the verbs that do the work of the class. These include both verbs that can be called by users of the class and verbs used only by the class itself.
The last component is the public interface for the class. The names defined in the locale are the equivalent of the private portion of class. To provide the public interface to the class, you need to put those names in a place where they can be found by other modules. The traditional way to do this is to define them in the locale 'z' by ending each file with lines like
epname_z_ =: epname_localename_
Here epname is the name of a verb, and localename is the name of the module's locale. Take a minute to see what happens when some other locale invokes epname . The name search for epname will end in the locale 'z' where this definition is found. Execution of this definition immediately results in execution of epname_localename_ which switches the current locale to localename and runs the definition of epname found there. The benefit is that the calling module doesn't need to know the locale that epname is going to be executed in.
If you tire of writing out the public definitions one by one, I have included in jforc.ijs a verb to do it for a list of entry points using a sentence like
PublishEntryPoints 'setmodule addlog readlog'
Object-Oriented Programming in J: Derived Classes
A derived class is a class that has all the features of a base class, plus a few additions of its own. It is easy to create such a class in J. In Figure 2 we create a timestamping class that adds timestamps to the log entries provided by the execlog class defined above:
|
Locale specifier |
coclass 'timelog' |
|
Append base class |
coinsert 'execlog' |
|
Initializations |
addtimelog
=: verb define |
|
Public interface |
addtimelog_z_ =: addtimelog_timelog_ |
|
Figure 2. Derived class: timestamp logging |
We use coinsert to give the timelog class all the facilities of the execlog class. A call to addtimelog will add a timestamped log entry, while calls to addlog, readlog, and setmodule are handled as before.
Object-Oriented Programming in J: Objects
As described so far, a class is a collection of code with associated private data storage. The same entities can be thought of as a set of data with associated methods for operating on the data; this view can be extended to allow multiple instances of the data, each instance sharing the same set of methods for operating on the instance.
When a class is augmented to allow creation of multiple instances of the data, we use the name object to denote a single instance of the data, along with its associated methods. In J, an object has a locale of its own, in which the data resides; the locale of the class is in the path of the object's locale, which makes the methods in the class available through name searches starting in the object's locale.
A class that supports objects must define methods named create and destroy that initialize the object's locale when the object is created and destroy the object's locale when the object is no longer needed.
Templates for defining a class that supports objects are given in Figures 3 and 4.
|
Locale specifier |
coclass 'objclass' |
|
Initial Values |
oval =: 0 |
|

create =: verb define initialization that depends on y ) |
|
destroy Method |
destroy =: verb define release acquired resources here |
|
Other Methods |

=: verb define |
|

|

Other Methods |

|
Public interface |

|
Figure 4. Template for a derived class that supports objects |
Creating an Object
A new object is created by execution of
objname =: conew 'classname'
create__objname objparms
or
objname =: objparms conew 'classname'
where classname is the name of the locale the class is loaded in. The second form is normally used, but you can use the first form if the create method requires a left argument or returns a result you need to keep.
Either form of object-creation code first creates a numbered locale which will hold the object's instance of the data; then puts classname into the path of the object locale; then calls the create verb in the object's locale to initialize the object. Since the object's locale has just been created and doesn't have any verbs in it, this call to create will execute the create verb defined in the locale classname, but it will run it in the object's locale so that the initialization is performed in the object's locale. If the class is a derived class, its create verb should call the create verb in the base class to perform any initialization needed by that class.
The result of conew is the name of the object locale. This value should be saved in the variable that will be used to refer to the object.
For example, to create a Grid Control object, use
grid=: '' conew 'jzgrid'
and thereafter use grid as the object name, for example calling show__grid to display the grid.
Note that default initial values for each object may simply be defined in the class. When an object refers to them, they will be found in the class if they have not been modified in the object. If a method in the object changes one of these values, the updated value will be written into the object's locale, where it will thereafter override the value in the class.
Calling an Object's Methods and Reading Its Contents
The methods in an object are called using locatives. The name returned by conew is used as the explicit locale of the locative. To call the method verb, use
[operand] method__objname operand
Nouns in the object can be referred to by locative, as in
publicnoun__objname
Note that the methods referred to through locatives do not need to be published as global names in the z locale.
Note that object may contain other objects. In a locative of the form simplename__var, var may be a locative, as in method__subobjname__objname, where method is sought in the locale given by subobjname__objname .
Destroying an Object
When an object is no longer needed, call destroy__objname to remove it. A class's destroy verb should release any resources that were allocated when the object was created, and if the class is derived, it should call the destroy method in the base class so that it can do likewise. The last act in destroying an object is to issue codestroy, which erases the object's locale.
Calling Class Methods in a Class That Supports Objects
It is perfectly acceptable for a class that supports objects also to publish methods that deal with the class as a whole. Such methods must use PublishEntryPoints or define names in the z locale.
Watch That f. When Calling create From a Derived Class
If you were paying close attention you noticed that the create method in a derived class calls the create method in the base class with a line like
create_baseclass_ f. y
What is the purpose of the f.? Why not just create_baseclass_ y?
The trick is that (create_baseclass_ f.) looks up the name create_baseclass_ and returns its value after substituting defined names with their values. The result of (create_baseclass_ f.) is a verb but not a locative. It executes the same code as create_baseclass_, but it doesn't switch locales before it does so, so the operation is executed in the object's locale.
Utility Verbs to Use With Objects
costate '' gives a list of objects and associated information.
conl y lists the named (if y contains 0) or numbered (if y contains 1) locales.
conouns"0 localelist gives a list of nouns that can be used to refer to locales in localelist .
[prefix] copathnlx types displays names of the specified types in every locale in the path at which the verb is executed. copathnlx__obj can be used to display names defined in an object. The types are any combination of 0-3 for noun, adverb, conjunction, or verb, or 6 for locale; omitted types lists names of all types. If prefix is specified, only names starting with a letter in prefix are listed.
Good Object-Oriented Design in J
Some C programmers get object-happy and make every little array its own object. Don't do this in J. If you keep your data in arrays or boxed arrays, you have the full power and high efficiency of J's array-processing verbs. Use objects when you have a substantial amount of processing that you want to be able to reuse. Good examples of objects are the Grid Control, in which the object is the entire grid of data to be displayed and edited, and the Plot Control, in which the object is the graph or surface to be plotted.
By following the guidelines given above you will be able to emulate the class facilities of C++. Because J is interpreted, you can do much more if you want: you can install verbs in objects in addition to the usual nouns; you can change search paths dynamically; you can use locales and paths to create a high-performance network database; you can pass locales as data and use them to direct processing; you can peek at a module's private data. You can even modify a module's private data from outside the module, but if you are struck by lightning after doing so the coroner will find it was suicide.
Using locale-names as data allows for dynamic separation of namespaces. For example, the processing of forms in J requires definition of verbs for a great many events. You may let these verbs all share the same locale; but if you want to segregate them, the Window Driver will remember what locale was running when each form was displayed, and direct events for a form to the locale handling the form.


Trading giant Robinhood makes its UK debut in Revolut challenge
by Emily NicolleUS fintech Robinhood, a commission-free trading startup valued at $7.6bn (£5.9bn), has today arrived in the UK.
The firm's stock trading service is making its international debut, in a direct challenge to established British rivals Freetrade and Revolut.
Robinhood will today roll out the waiting list for its popular app to UK investors, with a formal launch penned for early next year.
Users will be able to invest in more than 3,500 US-denominated stocks, including Apple, Amazon and Tesla. They will also be able to access foreign stocks that are available to trade in dollars through depository receipts, such as Barclays and Burberry.
Accounts can be opened for free with investing to start at a minimum of £1, after which Robinhood will exchange users’ funds into dollars to begin trading with no execution fees.

"We chose the UK as the place for our first international office because the market has a lot of talent and it's a great place for fintech, so it's a great place for us to build our first office," Robinhood's UK boss Wanders Rutger told City A.M.
"We’ve talked to many customers and we see the opportunity here to bring real value to the market… [and] to bring a much more competitive product to existing investors."
The startup, which has more than 6m users in the US, gained authorisation from the City watchdog to operate in the UK in August.
Its debut comes as Revolut attempts to trade places with Robinhood, targeting a US launch before the end of the year. The two share a number of investors, including DST Global and Ribbit Capital.

Rutgers said the firm will expand its offering in time to include UK stocks, but said nothing "specifically jumped out" from its roadmap for early launch.
Robinhood now has 10 people in its Shoreditch office, and is steadily hiring across marketing, operations and compliance.

A note from the editor:
Movies. They take us to places we never imagined we could go — to far off places filled with mythical creatures and magical people, or places closer to home that take a look into our everyday lives.
Movies remind us of our relationships with others, from lovers to parents. They take us back to our teenage years and allow us to evaluate where we are now.
Movies cover real-life stories with different viewpoints. They give voice to the voiceless and make people look at events in a different light.
On this page, we honor and talk about the best of the best from 2017 while remembering the best of the past. 2017 had everything from Get Out’s social perceptions to the acceptance of love in The Shape of Water, while mother-daughter relationships were at the forefront of films like Lady Bird and I, Tonya.
Here’s to the movies that make us look at life and the ones that help us escape it.
As always, thanks for reading.

Continous Integration How-To
For administrators working with a single company, changesets are a great way to move updates between sandboxes and a parent org. However, when working on the enterprise tier, we often need to transfer components between various test and developer environments, which are outside the scope of changesets.
To support multiple developers working across multiple environments on various features and fixes, a proven path is to use an automated continuous integration system to simplify deployments and promote transparency.
For a quick overview of the basics, see Bootstrapping Continuous Integration on Force.com.
Lifecycle Guide
One approach, outlined in the Force.com Development Lifecycle guide, is to use a separate developer org for each coder. While multiple orgs is better than one org, for larger teams, the org-per-developer approach presents challenges:
- Teardown scripts are needed to reset the developer org.
- Commingling alpha code with tested code increases the potential for error.
- Increased overhead discourages experimentation and innovation.
CumulusCI
CumulusCI is the process used by the Salesforce.com Foundation for the Cumulus project, the next generation of the Non-Profit Starter Pack (NPSP).
The process integrates GitHub, Jenkins, the Salesforce.com Ant Migration Tool, and a custom web application called mrbelvedere running on Heroku.
While this process was specifically built for the Cumulus project, it should be useable by other Force.com projects.
For a high-level overview, see [https://github.com/SalesforceFoundation/CumulusCI the project’s GitHub page].

Two earthquakes shake southwest corner of California
by KGTV StaffEL CENTRO, Calif. — Two earthquakes shook the Imperial County city of El Centro Monday night.
The first quake, which measured at 4.0 magnitude, struck about a half mile east-northeast of the city at 6:13 p.m. local time. The second quake was recorded as a 3.7 magnitude quake about 30 seconds later.
A check of the U.S. Geological Survey's 'Did You Feel It' map showed shaking was reported in Calexico, about 12 miles away, and Yuma, Arizona.
The quakes were "very quick," said an El Centro hotel clerk who did not wish to be identified.
A server at a local Denny's said the shaking made his customers stand up out of concern, but no one was hurt.
While no major damage has been reported, the quakes were strong enough to shake overhead lights and topple monitors on display at Staples, according to clerk Krosby Rider.
This story was originally published by Allison Horn on KGTV in San Diego.

JavaScript wasn't always cool. Most people hated the language for quite a while since its launch in the mid 90's. Since then, it has slowly gained popularity in the web development community. So much so that it is being hailed as "the future of programming. "How did this much maligned language emerge as such a popular development tool?
For one, JavaScript is what they call "beginner friendly." I'm not sure I buy into that because I struggled mightily this past week with my first taste of the language. This makes a lot of sense though. It essentially works with any operating system and it doesn't cost anything. It is relatively easy to learn with many e-learning modules designed to get beginners using the language. Editing and debugging code is a snap, and you can create interactive elements that make websites really sparkle. What I like most about JS is that it is fully supported by browsers and meshes well with HTML and CSS.


EXOTICA (1994) A Film Review by Ted Prigge Copyright 1998 Ted Prigge
Writer/Director: Atom Egoyan Starring: Bruce Greenwood, Elias Kosteas, Mia Kirshner, Don McKellar, Arsinée Khanjian, Sarrah Polley, David Hemblen, Peter Krantz, Victor Garber, Maury Chaykin
Every other night, he comes in to the "Exotica" club and gets the same girl to do an erotic dance for him, and, after a couple hours of this, leaves. And every time he does, the "DJ" of the club observes from above, and sometimes from a tinted window, observing everything that goes on. The man doesn't really seem to get a lot of enjoyment from it, but instead seems to feel cleansed by the act of the particular girl dancing for him. For him, it's not just some easy woman showing off her body, but instead it's something deeper.
Canadian director Atom Egoyan's films always deal with a group of people who have bizarre connections to one another, and the films usually examine their relationships, giving us information as it goes on and allowing us to put it all together. The same goes for "Exotica," which dives right into its narrative without so much as an exposition, and forces us to pay complete attention, and remember everything we see. He gives us characters who seem unnecessary at first, but eventually come into the narrative more clearly, and presents situations and scenes which appear to have no relevance or meaning, but then blossom as other scenes make more sense out of them.
Take for instance a scene between two of the characters in the film who are talking while walking in a field with a bunch of other people. They mention that they "joined up" with the event, and that they're "looking for something," but what they're doing there isn't even mentioned until the second to the last scene in the film. It's the kind of film you watch once to see everything, then watch a second time so that it all makes sense.
Egoyan introduces several characters and slowly allows us to get to know them better throughout the film by not only seeing what they're doing in the present day, but also bits from their past which are often tossed in looking like scenes from either the present or the near future. Character-wise, there's: Francis (Bruce Greenwood), an IRS man who is the guy who goes to the club every other night; Eric (Elias Kosteas), the DJ at the club; Christina (Mia Kirshner), the stripper at the club who dances for Francis; Thomas (Don McKellar), a gay pet store owner who's been checked out by Francis; and Zoe (Egoyan's wife, Arsinée Khanjian), the owner of the club who is probably the most disjointed person in the film.
One would think that people like an IRS man, a DJ, a stripper, a pet store owner, and a club owner would never fully amount to a film, but they all have connections to one another in some way. Although Thomas seems to be just a mere subplot that has nothing to do with any other part of the film, Egoyan eventually gets him into the narrative and also gives his character some depth.
Watching the film is like watching layers and layers and layers being peeled back; as the film goes on and we piece things together, the film's emotional core is exposed, and instead of just a really fun and kinky film, like some of Egoyan's films ("The Adjuster" is the least emotionally attached film that I've seen of his; "The Sweet Hereafter," the most), it shows that it's about people who become more and more realized as the film goes on, and by the last scene, our heart is crushed because we know everything. We get to witness what happens to every character, and piece by piece, we see what they're doing and why. In the beginning, we have no clue why Francis goes to the club every other night, and we think that his behavior is just a tad off kilter. But by the end, we know what has happened to him to make him do this, and we feel all the more for him.
 It seems that he can only get the same group of actors for each film, save a couple extras, probably because his characters do such weird things. Egoyan regulars in this film are: Bruce Greenwood, who expertly shows a man who is at the end of his rope; Elias Kosteas, who plays yet another weird character, and well; Don McKellar, who's performance is wonderfully subtle; Arsinée Khanjian, who is slightly pathetic once again; a small role from "The Sweet Hereafter"'s Sarrah Polley; and cameos from David Hemblen as an inspector in the first scene, and Maury Chaykin as an "Exotica" patron. Egoyan newcomer Mia Kirshner is wonderfully sympathetic in what would normally just be a seductive role, and look for Victor Garber, who recently played the sympathetic desinger of the ship in "Titanic," as Polley's wheelchair bound father.
The brilliance of "Exotica" is that it grows on your emotions as you watch the story unfold. What starts out as just another bizarro Egoyan film blossoms into one of the most emotionally profound films of the 90s, as well as one of the most fascinating. Of course, this is no shock coming from Egoyan, who, with this and "The Sweet Hereafter," is now not only one of the most fascinating directors working, but also one of the best.

In England public transport is the best option due to the high traffic on roads and lack of parking areas in the big towns. Roads are not that good as in other countries like spain and the public automobiles are most of them old as train and bus. However the timetable for travel between little towns is high and the frecuency range is extended.
| COMPANY | LOGO | SERVICE AND FEEDBACK |
|---|---|---|
| Ryanair | It is one which has the ticket more competitive in any date while the accomodation on the jet is not the best. His main connection is Stanted, airport to 60 km to London, therefore you should catch a additional bus. | |
| easyJet | As Ryanair has tickets very competitives even though more expensive but in my opinion has a better service. It has connection with Gatwick, Stanted y Lutton. Since Gatwick there is direct train for a price not more than 7 pounds. | |
| Iberia | Spanish company with tickets more expensive than the others but if you take in time is not that bad, price is like a 33% higher than his rivals but comfort is better. | |
| Vueling | It has a lot of flights and with medium prices. It has connection with Heathrow. | |
| Norwegian | A new company with flights direct to Gatwick. | |
| Monarch | British company specialized in charter flights. Prices more competitive than Iberia or British Airwais. | |
| British Airwais | The more important british company, same category as Iberia regarding prices and confort. |
London has one of the underground networks more extended and biggest of the world and under it they pass through daily millions of people. Moreover is the first tube worldwide.
All the tube links are respectevely in bus.
Buses in London are very popular and they are a simbol of the town. They are renewed through the time.
Nevertherless most of the remain this old sign of identity and you can read on the website of the government: https://tfl.gov.uk/
The tube is very useful but expensive. Weekly tickets of two areas cost around £40 and montly around £120. Single ticket is about £ 2.3 with the Oyster card. This card cost £5 and you can charge in any station. The £5 are like a deposit, so if you return the card day yo came back Spain finally you will recover the money. For tube. and bus you can us the Oyster Card. There here is a link with maps related to train and tube
Taxi in London is a medium very used to the others and it is popular also.
All taxi models are similar and they follow the same old line with black color.
Most of them go with some advertisements over the bodywork.
They are made for travel comfortely and they can travel 5 people easily with big space for the luggage.
They one of the mediums for travel more used and sometimes it is moneymaker than other travel transport, depending of the number of people onboard.
After 1am tube is closed so it could be also the only medium for travel apart the bus.
The rate are related to the distance and timetable you take the taxi between other factors. Next I show a table with these rates:
| Rate x mile | TARIFA 1 | TARIFA 2 | TARIFA 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mile | £4,20 – £6,20 | £4,60 – £7,40 | £8,00 – £11,00 |
| 2 miles | £6,60 – £9,40 | £7,20 – £10,80 | £8,00 – £11,00 |
| 4 miles | £11 – £15 | £13 – £18 | £15 – £19 |
| 6 miles | £14 – £20 | £18 – £22 | £21 – £24 |
| Airport | £40 – £70 | £40 – £70 | £40 – £70 |
For travel arund England you have three options. Use your own car, travel by bus or by train. Bus use to be about a 335 cheaper than train.
Biggest bus company isNationalExpress.
Best option for travel long distances is train, though in my opinion for moving between London and a town, bus depending of how far it is from the bus station could be a better option,
Official website of train is NationalRail.
In United Kindom companies of train are privates and each area of the country is from one or from other.

The Core
Updated on 17th February, 2019
Some time ago, I was put in a situation where most of who I am was challenged. Several events unfolded,
and I was drawn into the entire mess. There was one common attribute which belonged to all of them, the
deepening of sentiment.
Most of us are put in situations where we tend to get attached. Sentiment is an inevitable outcome of
attachment. This emotional idealism is strongly felt and it has the power to grow with time, based on
how you let it affect you. But what most people do not realize early on is the absolute pain which is
caused to themselves when things don’t go as planned. Acting on sentiment is something which people
find hard to reason out. Logic doesn’t exist there, it’s just one of the strongest personal feelings
ever. Even when things are looking horrible, they continue to act in an odd way which is likely to only
provide the satisfaction for the foundation of their sentiment.
Even when things are going downhill for us, we are unable to even realize that we aren’t taking the
right approach. We stay in the endless loop that we made for ourselves and find hard to leave. We
become less flexible to alternative opinions, more biased to older conventions, whilst losing our power
of reasoning.
There is one thing which we must not fail to realize. Each and every one of us has a certain build, a
CORE. It constitutes everything which we would say defines ourselves. Our values, our principles, our
image, our dreams and aspirations, and so much more all of which aren’t meant to be transient based on
the passing of emotions or sentiment. Whatever happens, these things must not change because that would
be a cardinal sin. It is the basis for everything we stand for and it would be absolutely unacceptable
to lose that especially since it would be happening without our control.
It isn’t easy to contain the strength to find this core again, or even to let it from not slipping
away. It is the one mindset which you need to enforce in your mind, leaving it absolutely
non-negotiable. Once you understand that you need to keep this intact, your approach to dealing with
situations becomes refined with a certain cynicism which is required for your own betterment. No matter
what the situation, no matter how deep the sentiment, you cannot act in a manner that puts your core at
stake. On this matter, the one who takes the side of sentiment belongs to the losing side.You must
always care about this. My dad always said, “When you fall, it's better to get up and dust yourself
rather than rolling on the spot and getting yourself dirty”.
I too understood the power of this, it helped me shape everything I am now. This write up is addressed
to all those who find themselves in a situation where they cannot understand what’s important, either
themselves or their sentiment. Don’t lose yourself, it just isn’t worth it.

Comparison Sort (SORT):
Given a sequence of elements of any (uniform) type and a
comparison function over the elements, sort the elements into
ascending order. The elements consists of a key and possible
auxiliary data, and the comparison function must define a total order
over the keys. The sort need not be stable. The code must not take
advantage of the specific type beyond the comparison function.
Input and Output File Formats
The input and output data need to be in the sequence file
format, both with the same element type. The output file
must be in sorted order with respect to the given comparison function.
Default Input Distributions
Each distribution should be run for
n=10,000,000. Currently
none of the inputs use auxiliary data. The weight of each input
for the purpose of reporting average times is given in parentheses.
-
(1) Double precision floating point numbers generated uniformly at
random from the range [0:1].

-
(3) Strings from tri-gram distribution, but order randomized after
allocation. In particular after the data is read in, the pointers to
the strings have to be randomly shuffled (the shuffling should not be
included in timing). The purpose of this test is to see how the sort
does when strings are not allocated adjacently with respect to the
input pointers.

ANGELS & INSECTS A film review by Ben Hoffman Copyright 1996 Ben Hoffman
About 150 years ago there was the Victorian age, known for decorum and modesty, even prudery. When we think of that period, the very word, "Victorian" brings that certain image to mind. Still, people are unpredictable and, regardless of the age in which they live, there are secrets about which most of us know nothing. One such secret was discovered by a naturalist, William @Adamson (Mark Rylance) who lost all his specimens he had studied and collected in South America when on his return to England he was shipwrecked.
Many educated and wealthy men of the time engaged in studying nature. When one such, the Reverend Alabaster, (Jeremy Kemp) heard of the disaster that had befallen Adamson, he took him into his home where Adamson met and fell in love with the beautiful daughter of the Reverend, Eugenia (Patsy Kensit).
Adamson seemed to have indeed fallen into great luck but nothing ever runs smoothly. Adamson wondered why his wife was a tiger in bed at night but a cool cucumber during the day. He could find no explanation. The other bothersome part of being in the household was that his brother-in-law, Edgar, (Douglas Henshall) who despite being of the aristocracy was in fact a disgruntled boor and seemed to have an intense dislike of Adamson. It seems that he wanted the Alabaster family kept pure; Adamson does not fill the mold of a blond, beautiful family. When the secret of the Alabasters is out, it is an exploding bombshell.
The film is ably helped by Mary (Kristin Scott Thomas), a poor relation who lives with the family but who has more in common intellectually with William than he does with his wife.
While on the surface this may appear to be a costume film of the Victorian Age, with the evolutionary theory of Darwin making its presence known, the movie is much, much more. Highly recommended.

Croatia boasts of record tourism season
ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) - Croatia says a record 20 million people visited the Adriatic Sea country this year.
The Ministry of Tourism said Friday in a statement this is the first time that so many arrivals have been recorded in one year in Croatia.
Croatia is a popular tourism destination because of its stunning Adriatic Sea coast and dozens of islands. Croatia’s coastal resorts are routinely packed during the summer season.
The ministry statement says tourism in Croatia has “flourished” in the past several years. It says the most popular destinations include the walled ancient city of Dubrovnik, Rovinj, Porec and Medulin on the northern Istria peninsula, as well as the central coastal town of Split.
Croatia became a member of the European Union in 2013.

Introduction to Conditional Random Fields
Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) are a class of statistical modeling method often to used to model structured data. CRFs are used as an alternative to hidden Markov models (HMMs) as well. Conditional Random Fields were introduced in 2001 by Lafferty, John, Andrew McCallum, and Fernando CN Pereira [2]. They are widely used in machine learning problems. Some specific applications include:
- Computer Vision: Object recognition, image segmentation
- Natural Language Processing: POS tagging, Shallow parsing, Named entity recognition
- Biological Sequences: Gene finding, Peptide critical functional region finding
A conditional random field or CRF is a Markov Random Field where all the clique potentials are conditioned on input features:
A CRF is basically a structured ouput extension of logistic regression. We can assume a log-linear representation of the potentials:
CRFs are more efficient than generative classifiers because they don't waste resources modeling things that they always observe. They only focus on the distribution of labels given data. This leads to the potentials of the model be data-dependent. If two nodes x and y are discontinuous, then we can "turn off" or set the transition potential to zero. [1]
We can also represent CRFs as:
A key advantange of CRFs over Markov Random Fields (MRF) is that we don't "waste resources" modeling things that we always observe. Another advantage is that the potentials of the model are data-dependent. As an example, if we are classifying images, we can "turn off" label smoothing between two neighboring nodes $s$ and $t$. The only disadvantage of CRF over MRF is that they require labeled training data and are slower to train.
The most commonly used CRFs use a chain-structured graph to model correlation amongst neighboring labels. Traditionally, Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are used for such tasks. These are joint density models of form:
An HMM requires specifying a generative model which is difficult. Furthermore, each $\mathbf{x}_{t}$ is required to be local, since it is hard to define a generative model for the whole stream of observations $\mathbf{x}=\mathbf{x}_{1:T}$. An obvious way to make a descriminative version of an HMM is to "reverse the arrows" from $y_{t}$ to $\mathbf{x}_{t}$ to model a form as:
This is called a maximum entropy Markov model or MEMM. An MEMM is simply a Markov chain whose state transition probabilities are conditioned on input features. A chain-structured CRF has the form:
Chain-structured CRFs remove the label bias problem. The problem is that local features at time $t$ do not influence states prior to time $t$. In MEMMs, the label bias problem occurs because directed models are locally normalized, meaning each CPD sums to 1. By contrast, MRFs and CRFs are globally normalized, which means that local factors do not need to sum to 1, since partition function $Z$, which sums over all joint configurations, will ensure the model defines a valid distribution. The main disadvantage is that we do not get a valid probability distribution over $\mathbf{y}$ until we have seen the whole sentence. CRFs are also not as useful as DGMs for online or real-time inference. Also, $Z$ depends on all nodes which makes CRFs much slower to train.

Gross scheduled income is considered as the gross income that would be collected from a rental property with all units 100% occupied and rented. That is, it is the amount of annual rental income that would be collected if the property experienced zero vacancy and credit loss. To make this happen, vacant units (if they exist) are included in the calculation at a fair market rent.
Gross Scheduled Income = O + V
Where:
In other words, if you have a rental income property consisting of eighty units with two units vacant where the occupied units are currently rented for $740 and you feel the market rent should be $750. You would compute the GSI by showing the occupied units at their current rent of $740 and the vacant units at $750.
78 units occupied @ 740 = 692,640
+ 2 vacant units @ 750 = 18,000
GSI = 710,640
