THE VIOLENT YEARS A film review by Andrew Hicks Copyright 1996 Andrew Hicks / Fatboy Productions
(1956) 0
"This is a story of violence, of violence born in the uncontrolled passions of adolescent youth and fostered by this generation of parents, those who, in their own smug little world of selfish interests and confused ideas of parental supervision, refuse to believe today's glaring headlines. But it _has_ happened. Only the people and places have been given other names." That's the narration that opens THE VIOLENT YEARS, a movie so bad it's hilarious. What else could you expect from a film scripted by Ed Wood himself?
As the narrator reads his Jack Webb-like intro, the four main characters of THE VIOLENT YEARS walk into frame one by one. They're four high school girls who have formed their own gang of violence and aren't too big on traditional authority. We can pretty much guess this as they walk in front of a blackboard reading "Good Citizenship, Self-Restraint, Politeness, Loyalty," and sneer defiantly. These girls have none of these things, especially their leader, Paula.
The movie begins with Paula's parents being chewed out by a courtroom judge for being so lax in raising the girl that she turned to violence. Flash back to the beginning of it all, when Paula tells her mother she wants to have a "heart-to-heart" talk with her and the mother replies, "What could be so important in your young life as to warrant my attention so drastically?"
Word of the robbery gets to Paula's dad, a newspaper editor.  When will they learn?" his star reporter asks him. "These aren't kids," he replies. "These are morons." But the joke's on you, dad. The reason Paula has turned to such crime is because you're busy with your newspaper, and the reason you're so busy with your newspaper these days is because of this femdom violence. Alanis Morissette has yet to dream of a situation that ironic.
The next night, the girls take their tyranny one step further and assault a couple making out in a car. They force the girl to take off her sweater and skirt and steal her jewelry. As for the "pretty" boy, "Maybe he's got more to offer than money." Another girl adds, "Under conventional circumstances, he could be very interesting." So they take him into the woods and, one by one, have their way with him. To a teenage boy, a more horrendous form of torture could only be imagined.
The next day is Paula's birthday, but neither of her parents can make it to the party. Better that they don't, though, because it turns out to be a four-on-four orgy of 50's proportions. However, even in its depiction of perversions, THE VIOLENT YEARS embodies each and every 50's cliche, from "You're a peach" to "Hi, gang." The girls are never believable as hoodlums and everyone else simply can't act. Mixed in with Wood's atrocious dialogue like "I'm not in it for the money. There's plenty of that at home... It's the thrill that gets me -- the thrill of the chase," it turns into one of the absolute worst movies of all time.
Finally comes the climax, as Paula and the gang are offered a job that will pay more money than all the gas station jobs combined, although we all know it isn't the money Paula is after. No, there's plenty of that at home.  As bad luck would have it, though, the cops show up and plug one of the girls where it counts. "It ain't supposed to be this way," she wails before falling over dead.
 "You killed for the love of killing," he tells Paula. "A kill for a thrill." We get even more Poetry With Ed Wood when the parents finally realize the error of their ways and lament, "We've given Paula everything -- everything but real love. A new dress instead of a caress, a new car instead of a heart-to-heart talk."
Wood throws in a plot twist at the end involving Paula's illegitamate child that makes the movie even worse.  I'd have to agree with her on that one, and even more so with the judge's final speech about the youths of today (who are now over fifty) when he says, "Their callous attitude is summed up in two words: 'So what'." So what indeed.

Suggestive photos of children in 'wrestling' poses sold for up to R1 500 by Bronkhorstspruit man - report
A karate and wrestling coach from Bronkhorstspruit has been selling picture sets of young children in a variety of "wrestling" poses on the internet for as much as R1 500, according to reports.
In the pictures, boys and girls in their preteens and teens can be seen in a number of suggestive poses, with tags such as "schoolboy", "body scissors", "crucifix pins", "schoolgirl pins", "strangling" and "boy dominating girl".
On Sunday, Rapport carried a report about a website that hosts thousands of picture sets that are being sold by one, Neville Randall, who has been coaching children at his club in the rural town since 2000.
Clients can also reportedly order bespoke picture sets with the children of their choice.
News24 has seen a plethora of sets in which young children engage in staged fights. One page is dedicated to "boy vs girl" pictures, in which boys and girls can be seen fighting and dominating each other. In one picture, a girl chains a boy to a wooden pole, while in another, a boy holds a teenage girl in a strangle grip, on the floor, from behind, while forcing her legs apart.
According to Rapport, child services authorities cannot intervene as no crime has been committed and the children's parents consented to the pictures. The paper also reported that the children got paid for their efforts.
'So hot'
Rapport traced some of the pictures to a Facebook page belonging to one, Aaron Lautner. His page contains pictures of wrestling children, with some pictures bearing the "Fighting Kids" watermark and website address.
Some of the comments are sexually suggestive.
Michael Tovar commented: "2 on 1 that is what i want. Soooo hot (sic)."
Someone called Still Mike wrote: "want some one to hold me and take fully advantage of me (sic)."
Randall did not respond to Rapport's questions regarding the sexual nature of the photographs.
Instead, he reportedly said the sessions were "innocent" and were used to teach self-defence techniques. According to his website, the children were being remunerated for participating in photo sessions or DVD recordings so that they could buy clothes, computers or bicycles.
Rapport spoke to parents who reacted with shock to the sexual undertones of the comments.
Theuns Vorster, a local attorney, reportedly submitted a draft statement about the activities at the club to the police in 2016, but the investigation led to nothing.

Drunk husband prompts wife to push the panic button
John Dunn told his wife she was a “waste of space” before uttering offensive remarks at her, within a sheltered housing complex.
by Paul Behan, https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/authors/paul-behan/Dunn, aged 69, of Viewfield Road, Ayr appeared from custody at Ayr Sheriff Court on Tuesday, November 12.
He admitted behaving in a threatening or abusive manner towards his wife, Louisa Dunn, and that he did shout, swear and utter offensive remarks.
The offence took place on October 14 this year in Bradan Road, Troon.
Dunn further admitted breaching his bail conditions on October 17, by entering Bradan Road, Troon, without a reasonable excuse.
Fiscal Depute Scott Toal said: “The accused and his wife were married for 13 years. They have no children.
“It seems the accused came back at 5.30pm under the influence and his wife was in bed.
“A minor argument came about and he said she was a waste of space.

“The accused continued to swear and so his wife activated the community alarm, linked to a monitoring station.
“Police were called and the wife was in her bed and the accused in the living room.
“Officers went to the monitoring station and heard the conversation, lasting 14 minutes and heard the complainer say “leave me alone.”
“The accused was heard swearing at his wife and he was taken away.”
At the police station Dunn told officers he had sworn at her.
Mr Toal outlined the circumstances of the bail breach.
He said: “He phoned his wife asking if he could attend.
“He was told, though, that it was a breach of his bail conditions.
“But the accused arrived in a taxi and under the influence. She let him in but activated the intercom.
“Officers attended and again he was arrested.”
Defence solicitor Steven Maxwell said: “I am hoping the last three weeks in custody have had a sobering effect on him.”
Sheriff David Bicket sentenced Dunn to a community payback order, consisting of 12 months of supervision.
A review and progress report on Dunn’s payback order will take place on December 10.
Dunn was bailed under the standard conditions.


The cartography curriculum at UW-Madison dates to 1937 and was expanded rapidly after Arthur Robinson joined the UW Geography faculty following the end of World War II. Today, the cartography curriculum sits within a campus-wide array of courses covering geospatial data, GIS, remote sensing, and spatial statistics. Five of these courses are fully or partially dedicated to cartography instruction.
In a recent refresh of the curriculum, we realigned the courses based on two distinctions defining contemporary cartography. The first axis captures the traditional distinction between mapmaking and map use while the second axis captures an emerging distinction between representation and interaction that is increasingly fundamental to cartography and related fields. The refreshed curriculum captures topics ranging from the basics of reference and thematic map design to interactive, web, and mobile map design and visual ethics and critique.
Interested in maps, geography, or design? We’d love to have you in our cartography classes! Each course balances concept with skills, promoting design thinking with industry-standard technology. Take a look at the topics and technologies covered in each class, and pay particular attention to the beautiful array of final projects from prior offerings.
Geography 370: Introduction to Cartography
Geography 572: Graphic Design in Cartography
Geography 575: Interactive Cartography Geovisualization
Find this semester's course offerings at the online Course Guide
The cartography curriculum supports six different degree programs offered through UW Geography. Both introductory and advanced courses also regularly gains interest from students studying anthropology, art, computer science, design, journalism, and political science.
We use Twitter in the classroom to support asynchronous discussion and focus on timely, real-world examples. Follow along with our courses on the #uwcart hashtag!

with differing blocking dimensions
and you want the return to have blocking different from that of x
,
then use the function base.rpdgemm()

The Restoration of Honor Act has been in the works for years, said state Senator Brad Hoylman, who fought alongside Assemblywoman Didi Barrett to get it passed earlier this year.
“The men and women who have stepped up and risked their lives to protect and serve our country embody what it means to be a hero,” Barrett said in a statement. “Yet, for far too long, many of our veterans in the LGBTQ community, those who experienced military sexual trauma and vets struggling with mental and behavioral health disorders have been denied the support and resources they’ve earned when they separate from service.”
Four years ago, Hoylman’s office reported that military sexual trauma, traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder were among the circumstances that led to veterans receiving less than honorable discharge, costing them at least 53 state benefits.
One of the key findings of the report was that an estimated 114,000 servicemembers have received a dishonorable discharge because of their gender identity or sexual orientation since World War II. The report also faulted the U.S. government’s delay restoring benefits to servicemembers after the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, a policy that led to the dismissal of more than 14,000 gay military members.
The first such discharge occurred in 1778 under orders from then-General George Washington, the report found.
“For too long, LGBT service members put their lives on the line only to suffer in silence under military policies that took a tremendous toll,” Lynn Faria, executive vice president at SAGE, which provides advocacy and services to older gay populations. “Older LGBT veterans especially bore the burden of hiding and have suffered because of their lack of access to critical benefits
On Veterans’ Day, Cuomo signed into law a package of 14 bills advancing the rights of veterans, including allowing them to get high school diplomas, mandating a report on homeless vets in the state, expanding their paid leave for health reasons, and extending a real property tax exemption to active members who need to modify their homes for a service-related disability.
“Countless service members were discharged from the military simply because of who they are,” Cuomo said in a statement Tuesday about the Restoration of Honor Act.
“Adding insult to injury, they were then denied the services and benefits they earned as members of our armed forces who fought to protect our country and defend our ideals. With this measure we are righting that wrong and sending a message to LGBTQ veterans that we have their backs, just as they had ours.”

Rangers flop Eros Grezda admits driving without licence and insurance at Glasgow Sheriff Court
by Connor GordonRANGERS flop Eros Grezda has today admitted being behind the wheel of a high-performance car with no licence and no insurance.
Albanian winger Grezda, 24, was driving his Audi RS3 last month when he was pulled over by cops in Glasgow's Kelvinbridge.
Grezda, who represented himself at Glasgow Sheriff Court claimed he did not realise his insurance had lapsed because he had not checked his mail.
He admitted driving without insurance and not having a valid licence and was fined £400.
The court heard Grezda was banned from driving for six months in March this year, and should have applied for a new licence when the disqualification ended.
Grezda told the court that he thought he had paid his insurance by direct debit and added: “I wasn’t aware that they had refunded the money back into my account.
“They wanted information from my drivers licence but I didn’t reply as I didn’t see it.
“I never saw the mail as I never checked the mail I was sure I had insurance.”
Sheriff Barry Divers asked if the insurance company could have been getting in touch because he had been disqualified, Grezda replied: “Maybe.”
Grezda, of Glasgow's Kelvinside, told the court: “I wish to apologise to the court for this incident. I didn't intend to drive without insurance and I hope this will be taken into consideration.”
Sheriff Barry Divers ordered his licence to be endorsed with six penalty points.

URGENT BUSINESS PROPOSAL
Kindly allow me
the modesty of introducing myself. I
am Gregory Kabila, the son of the
former head of state
president of Congo-Kinshasha (then called Zaire) Mr.
Laurent Desire Kabila.
I am contacting you in order to ask for your
assistance
on this confidential Business proposal with full financial
benefit for both of us.
Before I go into further details please be
informed
that I am writing without any other person(s)
pre-knowledge of my contacting you on this
transaction. Therefore I
will appreciate same attitude
to be maintained all through.
I have
the sum of USD48Million from a secret sale of
Diamond by my father before
he was assassinated by one
of his body guard (Rashid) on January 16th
2001, which
I will like you to receive on my behalf due to
security
reasons, as my narration below will explain.
But before I continue be
well informed that your share
in this transaction has been calculated at
25% of the
total sum of USD$48M, 5% for expenses and the rest for
my family and me.
My father as a real African traditionalist was a
polygamist thereby having married so many wives, and
my mother being
the second wife of my father, My
stepbrother Joseph, who is the current
president of my
country, is the son of the first wife and he does not
have any knowledge about this deal.
Already president Joseph is using
his power to
colonize all the money and private property, which my
father left behind for the whole family. Now my mother
and I are left
with nothing in the inheritance of my
late father’s wealth. Our situation
is seriously
critical that we need your assistance to help us
receive these funds overseas for proper investment.
Let me quickly
assure you the 100% safe proof of this
transaction because the diamond
sales are packaged
from the onset in a pattern that shows no direct trace
or linkage with us (Kabila family). At present the
money is in cash
and is secured in a security company
as family treasures, as I don’t want
to deposit the
money in a financial institution for fear of the funds
being confiscated
The consignment will be released within seven (7)
days
of my being in receipt of your reply via my email
address
above only for security reasons.
I am waiting for your swift and
favorable response,
and in case you have any question(s), do not hesitate
to contact me.
Best Regards,
Gregory Kabila.

Mission: I wanted to setup an instance, that I could install various things on and prepare it to act as a Terraformer or central server within GCE to spawn instances, setup networks, and generally manage the network autonomously of any local scripts or junk I have on my local computer. To set this up, I would of course have to launch it from my local computer, so there’s a whole range of things I’d need to have execute. To accomplish this, here’s what I did.
First Steps: Google Compute Engine
First I logged in and setup a GCE Account (read specifically about creating and getting started with a GCE account) and got gcloud configured. The gcloud is a cli to manage GCE. It’s actually a super powerful tool that comes in handy for all sorts of things. Besides managing GCE, it has a thin wrapper around ssh, scp, and working with servers with those respective tools. I’ll use it a bit later to actually run some scripts against the instance I’ll be creating.
Once you’ve signed up for GCE there’s a few things worth noting. One is the idea of the project that Google uses within GCE. This is something you’re create, or rename the default, or in some way bring into existence to use. A project is something that a host of instances, instance groups, load balancers, networks, networking, and more can be allocated against. It’s also something that can be setup for or inside a specific billing group. It might also be helpful to really get an understanding of what a project is by reading the Google documentation on projects.
Once the project is ready, we can move forward with installing gcloud. The way this is done is by installing the Google Cloud SDK. The curl below pulls down and executes the installation. Then the following command restarts the shell. Finally the gcloud init command kicks off the initialization of the gcloud cli.
curl https://sdk.cloud.google.com | bash
exec -l $SHELL
gcloud init
Running gcloud init does several things.
- Authenticates the user (or allows re-use of saved credentials).
- Requests the user’s project & saves it in the gcloud configuration.
- Requests and sets a default zone based on the project in the gcloud configuration.
At this point gcloud is setup for use, however upon connecting for the first time to an instance, gcloud will prompt to create a new ssh key set. This key set will be created and autonomous of the key set I have setup for git or other cli ssh tooling I’ll use. I’ll talk more about that later. NOTE: It is very important for subsequent steps to insure the gcloud ssh key is generated. I’ll get around to that in a moment under the “User gcloud w/ Terraform“ section.
The specific instructions for setting up gcloud are also available here in getting started with the Google Cloud SDK. This includes a little more description of what is included and related information about the Google Cloud SDK.
Using gcloud w/ Terraform
When building Terraform configurations for Google Cloud there are a number of settings that gcloud can pull up very easily. Here are some of the commands I’ve used most frequently when setting up google compute instances.
List machine types in a project in table.
gcloud compute machine-types list
List the URIs of all machine types in a project.
gcloud compute machine-types list --uri
List all machine types in the us-central1-b and europe-west1-d zones.
gcloud compute machine-types list --zones us-central1-b europe-west1-d
List all images in a project in table.
gcloud compute images list
List all the URI images in a project.
gcloud compute images list --uri
The last thing is connecting to instances, with gcloud looks like the following.
gcloud compute --project "project-name" ssh --zone "us-central1-b" "instance-name"
There’s some super useful ways to execute commands with the gcloud cli, which provides a great way for bash scripting against instances.
These all provide quick ways to get the specific GCE specific settings for the Terraform file. Which brings up a perfect point to get into a basic Terraform instance creation.
Next: Terraforming with Terraform
If you don’t have Terraform installed, the following bash commands will get you all setup on your machine. With this script below I can wrap this up as an installation script for the instance further along in this how-to. We’ll just have to tweak it specifically for Linux, as this script is focused around downloading and installing the Darwin (OS-X) version.
cd /home/adron
# Create a move into directory.
mkdir terraform_0_6_14
cd terraform_0_6_14
# Download.
curl -O https://releases.hashicorp.com/terraform/0.6.14/terraform_0.6.14_darwin_amd64.zip
# Unzip and install
unzip terraform_0.6.14_darwin_amd64.zip
export PATH=/home/terraform_0_6_14:$PATH
To confirm that Terraform is installed correctly, just type terraform. The following should be displayed, which will let you know that the path variable is set to the correct path.
$ terraform
usage: terraform [--version] [--help] <command> [<args>]
Available commands are:
apply Builds or changes infrastructure
destroy Destroy Terraform-managed infrastructure
get Download and install modules for the configuration
graph Create a visual graph of Terraform resources
init Initializes Terraform configuration from a module
output Read an output from a state file
plan Generate and show an execution plan
push Upload this Terraform module to Atlas to run
refresh Update local state file against real resources
remote Configure remote state storage
show Inspect Terraform state or plan
taint Manually mark a resource for recreation
untaint Manually unmark a resource as tainted
validate Validates the Terraform files
version Prints the Terraform version
You may also want to add the PATH to the ~/.bash_profile on your own OS-X machine, like I did. Instead of that last bit of script that just exports the PATH variable, I swapped it out with the following code.
echo "
export PATH=/home/terraform_0_6_14:$PATH
" >> ~/.bash_profile
Yes, the odd spacing and new lines are important, because that will append the export to PATH in a way that provides space before and below the line. It just leaves the ~/.bash_profile file looking a little cleaner.
Once you’ve added it to your ~/.bash_profile, remember to either restart the terminal or source the file to get the PATH variable updated.
source ~/.bash_profile
The next thing we’ll need for Terraform use with GCE is the account.json file. This is the file that a service account sets up to secure our connection between GCE and Terraform.
Navigate to the Permissions section of the GCE interface and add a service account. When you click to create a service account you’ll be prompted with the following.
Here check the “Furnish a new private key” and click on the JSON for the key type. Then create create. This will create the service account and the key will download locally. The key is not named account.json, but the file downloaded is what to use as the account.json file, it just needs renamed.
Now we’re ready to get into actually putting together an infrastructure project. Let’s start with a basic setup. First I need the following files.
- account.json
- theterraformfile.tf
These are needed files and will get a terraform workflow started, but I break them out a bit more. Terraform files after all are all collected and then processed, so the configuration doesn’t have to all be in a single file.
What I have been doing lately, is take the terraform file and break it out accordingly. For the connection I create a connection.tf file, for configuration around instances I create an instances.tf file, for network addresses (static IPs) that goes in an addresses.tf file. If any of those files get to big within a project I break those out further like instance-instancename1.tf and instance-instancename2.tf.
With that practice applied, I end up with a project with the following files.
- account.json
- instances.tf
- addresses.tf
I then run git init and add two more files.
- .gitignore
- README.md
These have no relevance to the actual Terraform files, but they’re standard practice and come in very helpful once the project starts to grow. You’ll want a README.md for notes and documentation and you’ll definitely want to keep trash out of the project with the .gitignore, so even though they’re not required right now, if you’re following along add the files.
In the README.md, of course, we write our documentation! So anyway, it’ll be there in the repo I’ve created for this blog entry here.
In the .gitignore file add the following.
.DS_Store
account.json
In the connection.tf file I added the following connection information. The ${file(“../secrets/account.json”)} configuration interpolates the path of the file based on where the project is located and pulls in the appropriate values for GCE.
# Configure the Google Cloud provider
provider "google" {
credentials = "${file("account.json")}"
project = "that-big-universe"
region = "us-central1"
}
With that in place, I added this to the instances.tf file.
# Create a new instance
resource "google_compute_instance" "flirpderp" {
name = "flirpderp"
machine_type = "f1-micro"
zone = "us-central1-b"
disk {
image = "ubuntu-1404-trusty-v20160406"
}
network_interface {
network = "default"
access_config {}
}
service_account {
scopes = ["userinfo-email", "compute-ro", "storage-ro"]
}
}
To get the machine_type and disk image above I just used the following gcloud commands.
gcloud compute machine-types list
and
gcloud compute images list
For this first build, I just wanted to get a basic template with a small (and by association super cheap) instance. For this I went with f1-micro. For the disk, I used the base disk image load of the ubuntu-1404-trusty-v20160406.
All configuration set, I opened up a bash terminal and typed in the following.
terraform plan
This command then displayed the following result.
Refreshing Terraform state prior to plan...
The Terraform execution plan has been generated and is shown below.
Resources are shown in alphabetical order for quick scanning. Green resources
will be created (or destroyed and then created if an existing resource
exists), yellow resources are being changed in-place, and red resources
will be destroyed.
Note: You didn't specify an "-out" parameter to save this plan, so when
"apply" is called, Terraform can't guarantee this is what will execute.

Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.
Let’s walk through this result to get an idea of what just happened. Terraform has taken all of the Terraform files, which currently is only one file with actual configuration in it, and processed them to create a plan of changes. At the very bottom of the results the line “Plan: 1 to add, 0 to change, 0 to destroy.” simple shows what will occur if I were to apply these changes. Many of the values are also set as which simply means that when processed they’ll be calculated and set. Otherwise most of the other values are simply the settings I’ve put in via the actual Terraform configuration files.
Now I applied the configuration.
terraform apply
The output of this command will display as shown.

Apply complete! Resources: 1 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.
The state of your infrastructure has been saved to the path
below. This state is required to modify and destroy your
infrastructure, so keep it safe. To inspect the complete state
use the `terraform show` command.
State path: terraform.tfstate
I logged in at this point to verify the creation of the instance.
In the interface the instance (or instances if I have multiple) shows up in a list underneath the fancy CPU utilization chart.
 If there were other instances in this set of Terraform configuraiton files, it would also destroy those too. Destroy, suffice to say is something that is very destructive and should be used carefully. For this example I’m going to destroy this instance now, but since I have the configuration I’ll add a little bit more to it and recreate it shortly.
I issue this command.
terraform destroy
This displays…
Do you really want to destroy?
Terraform will delete all your managed infrastructure.
There is no undo. Only 'yes' will be accepted to confirm.
Enter a value: yes
Then I confirm by typing ‘yes’ and then the following result of this acction is returned.
google_compute_instance.flirpderp: Refreshing state... (ID: flirpderp)
google_compute_instance.flirpderp: Destroying...
google_compute_instance.flirpderp: Destruction complete
Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 1 destroyed.
At this point, it’s pretty cool that I can build a single instance, but that’s of extremely limited use if I can’t get it deployed out into GCE in a usable state. The most common ways I’d want to wrap up configuration and installation of software on an instance is to issue some bash commands to the instance. Well, Terraform has ways that exactly that can be done. I’ll cover that in the follow up to this article.

binstar config --set verify_ssl False
Update Anaconda.
conda update conda
Get the yml file to create an environment.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/E3SM-Project/e3sm_diags/master/conda/e3sm_diags_env.yml
Remove any cached Anaconda packages. This will ensure that you always get the latest packages.
conda clean --all
8. Use Anaconda to create a new environment with e3sm_diags
installed.
Tip: You can change the name of the environment by adding -n new_env_name
to the end of conda env create ...
.
conda env create -f e3sm_diags_env.yml
source activate e3sm_diags_env
Running all sets of diagnostics¶
9. Copy and paste the below code into myparams.py
using your
favorite text editor. Adjust any options as you like.
reference_data_path = '/ccs/proj/cli115/acme_diags_data/obs_for_e3sm_diags/climatology/'
test_data_path = '/ccs/proj/cli115/acme_diags_data/test_model_data_for_acme_diags/'
test_name = '20161118.beta0.FC5COSP.ne30_ne30.edison'
#sets = ["lat_lon"] # To run only lat_lon countour diags
#without specifing sets, sets = ['zonal_mean_xy', 'zonal_mean_2d', 'lat_lon', 'polar', 'cosp_histogram']
diff_title = 'Model - Obs'
backend = 'mpl' # 'vcs' is for vcs plotting backend.
results_dir = 'lat_lon_demo' # name of folder where all results will be stored
Run the diags.
e3sm_diags -p myparams.py
Open the following webpage to view the results.
firefox --no-remote lat_lon_demo/viewer/index.html &
The
--no-remote
option uses the Firefox installed on this machine, and not the one on your machine.
Above example runs the package in serial. Instead, it can be run much faster using multi-processing, either in an interactive session on compute nodes, or as a batch job.
Adding below lines to myparams.py
:
multiprocessing = True
num_workers = 16 # Number of processes to use
Tip: Once you’re on the webpage for a specific plot, click on the ‘Output Metadata’ drop down menu to view the metadata for the displayed plot.
Running that command allows the displayed plot to be recreated. Changing any of the options will modify the resulting figure.
Interactive session on compute nodes¶
First, request an interactive session with a single node (16 cores) for an half hour (running this example should take much less than this):
qsub -I -A charging_project_name -q name_of_queue -V -l nodes=1 -l walltime=00:30:00
Once the session is available, launch E3SM Diags:
source activate e3sm_diags_env
e3sm_diags -p myparams.py
Batch job¶
Alternatively, you can also create a script and submit it to the batch system.
Copy and paste the code below into a file named diags.pbs
and change the following:
Change
charging_project_name
to a valid valueChange
$YOUR_WORKING_DIR
to your working directoryGet the path of your Anaconda binary
Run
which conda
, and get a path like so:/ccs/home/zhang40/anaconda3/envs/e3sm_diags_env/bin/conda
Copy everything from the beginning to ‘anaconda2’ (or ‘anaconda3’) put it in:
export PATH="PASTE_HERE/bin:$PATH"
An example path is:
export PATH="/ccs/home/zhang40/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"
#!/bin/bash -l
# PLEASE CHANGE: charging_project_name
#PBS -A charging_project_name
#PBS -N e3sm_diags_test
#PBS -j oe
#PBS -l walltime=0:30:00,nodes=1
# PLEASE CHANGE: the line below to your valid path
export PATH="/ccs/home/zhang40/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"
source activate e3sm_diags_env
# PLEASE CHANGE: $YOUR_WORKING_DIR to a valid directory
cd $YOUR_WORKING_DIR
e3sm_diags -p myparams.py
And then submit it
qsub diags.pbs

Can anyone find where add_comm
acquires simp
?
I do find
git grep "attri.*simp.*add_comm" src/set_theory/lists.lean:local attribute [-simp] add_comm add_assoc
Maybe it's in core?
mul_comm
is locally simp
when the run_cmd transport_multiplicative_to_additive
defining add_comm
is defined, so I guess that's where it gets the attribute.
in init.algebra.group
Maybe that line from set_theory.lists
should move to logic.basic
and become global?
I quite like having it as a simp lemma.
It frustrates me to no end. I get everything all lined up so simp
will work, but then simp
uses add_comm
and arbitrarily jumbles up terms.
I think you can't globally remove an attribute anyway.
To me it sounds like automatic invocations of add_comm
should be done by ring
, abel
and similar tactics.
I think add_comm
is the declaration that I most often have to remove from a simp set (simp [-add_comm]
). I would also have preferred it to not have simp
by default.
We should remove it from core. I don't know where the attribute is added. I'm wondering if it's through meta programming
Chris proposed a diagnosis several posts upstairs
A theory: I think it's in group.lean
.
local attribute [simp] mul_comm mul_assoc mul_left_comm -- ... later meta def transport_with_dict (dict : name_map name) (src : name) (tgt : name) : command := copy_decl_using dict src tgt >> copy_attribute `reducible src tt tgt >> copy_attribute `simp src tt tgt >> copy_attribute `instance src tt tgt
The local
on local attribute
means that the attribute is only present inside the section right? But maybe this localness gets clobbered when it does the copy_attribute
.
I have simp [-sub_eq_add_neg]
much more often than simp [-add_comm]
@Edward Ayers Isn't that what Chris also said?
yep
But mul_comm isn't a simp lemma I think. So this is a bug in transport_with_dict
?
I'm wondering if setting that tt
flag on copy_attribute
will cause it to be local
Ok so copy_attribute `simp src ff tgt
will set it as a local attribute. But I can't see a tactic that tells you whether an attribute is local or not so I think the best fix is to just unset the attribute in the group.lean
file.
I think you can't globally remove an attribute anyway.
Aw damn.
You can actually remove mul_comm
as a local simp attr and thegroup.lean
file still checks, so that might be the best way to fix it.
PRed a change to remove add_comm and add_left_comm from simp lemmas. https://github.com/leanprover-community/lean/pull/65
I suspect this might be a change that makes it hard to keep mathlib in sync with both 3.4.2 and 3.5c?
Yeah, I think so
ne.def
is another simp lemma that i frequently remove from my simp only set

JOHNNY MNEMONIC A film review by T. Robin Sutherland Copyright 1995 T. Robin Sutherland
On the up side, this was a fun way to spend the afternoon. A futuristic action movie with lots of whiz-bang special effects, a decent soundtrack, and not a few interesting shots and stunts.
But this will not be one of the science fiction films we look back on and say "this was a pivotal moment in cinema." In fact, it seems to me that somewhere along the line, the society which Gibson & Co. have helped to fashion with their ideograms of cybericity has caught up and now dictates to that work. Too bad. It would have been nice to seen a screenplay--so extensively modified from the original short story--take advantage of the transformation to continue to challenge its audience. Johnny Neumonic does not do this. It doesn't come close. Instead, it panders to the pop hysteria surrounding the Internet, hacker culture, and the glitz and glamour which has become associated (ironically) with the "power (computer) user."
Worse--it is as shallow a movie as that same pop hysteria.
I dunno. Maybe I was expecting too much when I found out that Gibbie was doing the screenplay. Maybe the cult following which has been cyberpunk is so much a part of our culture now is just too much to challenge. But I don't think so. It just all smells of a Hollywood which is much more concerned with flash and bucks than making a good film.
Acting? C'mon--this is sci-fi. We don't get much of the talent. Just watch the guys on DS9, B5, or SeaQuest. I hear they're remaking DEMOLITION MAN this year as DREDD. Keanu's prowess as an actor has never been in question as far as I've been aware, but the guy does have something besides a 1995 face, which I think I finally have figured out. He's Arnie for Generation X. And Gen-X doesn't use one-liners; they just let their phases hang there without any meaning. Done effectively, this will leave you going "What-?" and KR pulls this off from time to time.
But a lot of the scripting was just plain dumb. Much of it felt like ninja turtle fare. Two shots I immediately saw James Bond in. Lines like "You will regret this," "It's time to let your daughter die," and "You need to rest," come off as trite and cliche as they are, and there is finally no way to take anyone seriously. Reeves' forced intensity drives the whole thing, along with fairly quickly paced shooting sequences of fights, special effects, and loud music.
As for the story itself--the twins are still there, as is the dolphin and a guy named Ralphie (and a familiar bartender with a mechanical arm), but even Molly is gone, replaced with a Jane who's good in a fight, but has none of Molly's cyber-novelty. Many layers of story have been added, most of them pointless, some of them seeming to have the Gibson hint of obscure metaphor, but all drowned in a diatribe against dependence on the machine.
Despite all of that, it is fun to watch if you like mind candy and are not set up for a parable of our times. Gibson fans will go in droves and all of them will either be dazzled or disappointed. And on the upside once again, this was a short story.  If anyone has any brains, they'll do one or two more short stories first.
I read an interview in WIRED with Gibson and Robert Longo, which said that this was originally designed to be a $1.5 million "artsy" movie, and then went to $30 million budget. I really wish now that I could have a chance to see the former.

Fast high-level methods for sorting and ordering.
These are wrappers to ramsort
and friends and do not modify their arguments.
## S3 method for class 'integer64' sort(x, decreasing = FALSE, has.na = TRUE, na.last = TRUE, stable = TRUE , optimize = c("time", "memory"), VERBOSE = FALSE, ...) ## S3 method for class 'integer64' order(..., na.last = TRUE, decreasing = FALSE, has.na = TRUE, stable = TRUE , optimize = c("time", "memory"), VERBOSE = FALSE)
x |
a vector to be sorted by |
has.na |
boolean scalar defining whether the input vector might contain |
na.last |
boolean scalar telling ramsort whether to sort |
decreasing |
boolean scalar telling ramsort whether to sort increasing or decreasing |
stable |
boolean scalar defining whether stable sorting is needed. Allowing non-stable may speed-up. |
optimize |
by default ramsort optimizes for 'time' which requires more RAM, set to 'memory' to minimize RAM requirements and sacrifice speed |
VERBOSE |
cat some info about chosen method |
... |
further arguments, passed from generics, ignored in methods |
sort
returns the sorted vector and vector
returns the order positions.

The first player to reach a total score of 100 or more will win!
During each player's turn, they may roll for points as many times as they want to increase their potential turn score which will be added to their total score.
A player can click on the hold button at any point during their turn which ends their turn and adds their turn score to their game score.
If a player rolls a 1 at any point during their turn, their turn is over and they lose any points from that turn that were collected.

As we saw in the last post, we can get IntelliTrace logs from web applications.
But this is possible for Windows Applications, too!
Locate the IntelliTrace application under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\IntelliTrace\11.0.0.
Then launch it, with the following syntax:
intellitrace.exe launch /cp:<CollectionPlanPath> /f:<LogFilePath> <ExecutablePath>
That’s all, we finished
After that the itrace file is analysable as usual.

Adding a place to 'My Places' will send you updates if we notice any changes in normal reviews. This can be helpful because if one of your places has a drastic change in reviews you may want to visit another location.


Surrey drunk driver gets 32 months in prison for killing grandma, injuring girl
Shavin Reynold Singh, 31, is also prohibited from driving for four years
by Tom ZytarukA Surrey drunk driver who left the scene of a fatal crash to chase after his dog has been sentenced to 32 months in prison and is also prohibited from driving for four years.
Shavin Reynold Singh, 31, pleaded guilty on July 30 in Surrey provincial court to impaired driving causing death in the case of 80-year-old Dolat Jiwani, and impaired driving causing bodily harm for injuring her teen-aged granddaughter, who suffered broken bones and burns.
Singh smashed into their car with his SUV at 129 km/h in the middle of an intersection in Newton. It happened on July 15, 2017 at 72nd Avenue and 132nd Street, where the posted speed limit is 50 km/h.
Judge Peter La Prairie sentenced Singh on Nov. 13. The Crown had called for a prison term of two-and-a-half to three years and also argued for a driving prohibition of three or four years, while Singh’s defence lawyer sought a sentence of two years less a day to two-and-a-half years in prison.

La Prairie heard that Singh drank five “squeeze” watermelon vodka drinks before driving, downing his last one just 10 minutes before the crash. Witnesses reported seeing the Dodge he was driving speeding, and swerving in and out of traffic. He was on his way to a pet store, to buy a dog leash. He left the scene after the crash, to chase after his dog when it ran away. Jiwani died on the spot.
Singh already had three immediate roadside driving prohibitions – a one day, a three day and a 90 day – and also had a history of failing to stay at the scene of a crash and driving without a licence, which he has never held. He was prohibited from driving, by court order, at the time of the fatal crash.
The court heard that upon his arrest, Singh told police he learned to drive by watching video games.
