UNBREAKABLE RATING: 8/10 --> Great movie

You gotta hand it to M. Night Shyamalan. The man practically came out of nowhere and suddenly he's written and directed two of the most memorable movies of the past two years. First SIXTH SENSE, which blew everyone away with its ending and its unbelievable box-office success, and now this movie, whose trailer is easily the best teaser for any movie that I've seen over the past year. It's mysterious, it's intriguing and it makes you want to see the movie. Excellent! And with that in mind, I will be writing this review knowing full well that nobody wants any of the film ruined for them, so I assure you that I will not be including any spoilers about the movie's plot in this critique. I just love a good mystery and sure wouldn't want to ruin it for anyone else.
PLOT: Set in Philadelphia, this film stars two diametrically opposed men. One man is black and has a disease which makes his bones very easy to break. The other man is white and seems to be unbreakable. He is the only survivor of a train wreck and can't seem to figure out why. The first man helps the second man come to some kind of understanding about his situation.
CRITIQUE: M. Night Shyamalan continues to impress. Here's yet another original creation of his that manages to successfully slap together a unique mystery, interesting characters, real life situations to which we could all relate and a touch of the paranormal. I love this guy! I hope he keeps it up because more movies like this is what we need. Of course, much like any other great film, this one is not for everybody. The film does have quite the slow pace, might come off as repetitive to some people and also manages to parallel THE SIXTH SENSE in various ways. But for me, I was hooked-lined-and-sinkered from its first two scenes, which much like the film's teaser trailer, just made me sit up and say, "What's up with that? Intriguing...now tell me more." The sequences in question basically set up the foundation of the two main characters in this film, and let me tell you, they grabbed me and that was that. I couldn't wait to find out why they were the way that they were, and what it all meant. But Shyamalan draws the film out slowly. He already seems to have developed a great eye for the camera, setting up angles just right, enough to give us a taste of the scene, but not the whole bite. There are also little hints dropped here and there, red herrings and a Hitchcockian score providing just enough background to allow for a gradual development of the richer points in the script. Like Hitchcock, Shyamalan also seems to be finding himself a small part in his own films. Here, he shows up as a suspicious "drug dealer" at a sports stadium.
But don't expect a horror with this film. That's not what it is. It's not a thriller either. No major "thrill" scenes in this movie. In fact, it isn't until the last twenty minutes that the film's leisurely pace is disturbed by some invigorating energy. I would consider this picture to be more like a good ol' fashioned mystery a la Twilight Zone. Set in an ordinary environment with believable characters, this film manages to creep us out with elements which just don't seem to make sense in our reality. Of course, much like any other good story, this film would not be a complete success unless we connected to the characters on the screen, and in this movie, I did. In fact, we could all relate to what Bruce's character is essentially going through. He doesn't understand his place in the world. He is confused. He is not sure why he is what he is. What is his destiny? We've all felt like him at some point or another in our lives and you learn to recognize that in his character early on.
Bruce downplayed his character as much as he did the one in THE SIXTH SENSE (almost seemed like the same guy but in a different circumstance), while Sam Jackson was surprisingly restrained as the bizarre dude with the love of comic books. And as for the ending...don't worry I won't be giving anything away here, but suffice it to say that unlike THE SIXTH SENSE, a movie which I believed was taken to another level with that slap-in-your-face conclusion, this film's finish felt much more like a "Hmmmmm, yeah okay, that makes sense" kind of thing. Of course, some might scoff at the ending, but that all depends on whether or not you were "into" the film as it moved along. It certainly didn't make or break the movie for me, and I doubt it will blow anyone else away either. This film is not about the ending necessarily. It is about the journey, a journey that is deliberately unhurried, melancholic and intriguing. My guess is that anyone who was greatly interested in this film by its teaser, will more than likely be impressed with this film's brilliant manner of storytelling. It looks like Shyamalan is here to stay. Of course, once the movie is over, and this seems to be developing into a very cool Shyamalan tradition, you will undoubtedly feel the need to discuss the film with others. It's engaging, it's mysterious, perhaps even unbelievable to the more cynical in our society, but ultimately the film is an excellent demonstration of what a great director, a solid script, a deeper, meaningful message and well crafted characters can bring to a theatrical presentation as such. For me, the film worked on various levels and I hope that many others like it just as much. That's it and I hope I didn't spoil anything for you...that's half the fun!

Overview
The Challenge
Upcomer is a companion app for eSports fans get informed about their favorite eSports teams and important events but often leave after finding score information they want.
Our biggest challenge was to seamlessly implement engaging features that resulted in users interacting with the app and the Upcomer community longer without obstructing their initial purpose for visiting Upcomer.
Our Process
Research
Simply put, Electronic sports is organized competition where teams face off against one another playing popular multiplayer video games. This form of entertainment has blown up in recent year and professional gamers are watched worldwide by millions of viewers, who attend live events or use streaming services like Twitch to watch.
What is eSports impact?
To our surprise we found that eSports has been strategically structured to mimic traditional athletic sports in almost every way. This insight led us to understand eSports from a more familiar scope and would later influence our feature decisions in our ideation process.
Key Takeaways:
According to Business Insider, 62% of US eSports viewers are between the ages of 18-34.
It's anticipated that global eSports sponsorship revenue will reach $359 million in 2018, up 53% year-over-year
Data suggests that Gen Zers are more receptive to eSports compared to traditional sports.
What is on the Upcomer app?
I conducted a content audit that would help us understand the range of information and functionality the app currently offers it users.
To my concern, most of the content was only accessible via the home screen causing the app to be at least 4-5 levels deep. It was clear that my team would have to make the app more robust navigation and spread out the content in a way that is easier for users to access information.
How do users navigate Upcomer?
We conducted usability tests with several gamers and non-gamers to observe a wider range user pain points.
We observed that all users had difficulty navigating through the app because the nav bar disappeared when they click on different types of content which lead them either exiting the app or tapping the back arrow upwards of 10 times before returning to the screen they started on.
Who makes up the eSports community?
To gain a better understanding of our target audience, we interviewed several types of "gamers". These interviews taught us about the frustrations, motivations, and goals of Upcomers' potential userbase.
Key Takeaways:
Improving ones game is a large reason people look up highlights and join eSports forums
Users enjoyed gaming as a way to gather and bond with friends
Conversely, trolls are very real in the gaming community so gamers cautiously stick to their primary circle or utilize friends gaming circles to fill out a team
Analysis
What are trends among users?
To synthesize the data from our user interviews and identify key trends that existed in the existing marketplace, we collaborated via affinity mapping to find patterns among gamer/eSport fans.
We realized that there were 2 opportunities to improve the existing app by:
Providing references for users to improve their own game and continually come back on the app
Encourage more interaction between users on posts, events, and with each other.
What features do we tackle?
We began brainstorming features that could would fit into our observed areas of opportunity found in our affinity mapping. We landed on creating the following features which held high user value at a low level of implementation:
Easily accessible game tips & strategies for users to reference
Providing live event, player, and team scores and statistics.
In app messaging and sharing content with friends
Forming a Persona
To help my team understand the needs and goals of our users, I synthesized our data and created our user persona, Xander. In many ways our persona helped us come to united decisions based off of the wants and needs of users instead of making decisions based off of our assumptions as designers.
Designing Solutions
Ideation
I led the ideation process of the redesign focused on a collaborative team effort. Together my team was able to share ideas in design studios and come to united decisions based on our user research. We also utilized paper prototyping to test our ideas early and often before committing to a final design.
Final Designs
News Screen
Customizable news feed based on a users favorites with the option to see all trending eSports news.
Users are able to hide and show spoilers and set alarms for events with just a tap.
Quick access and editing users favorite teams, players, and games.
Profile and Team Screens
Robust editing/adding of favorites and friends.
Central hub for saved content that can be easily accessed.
Personalization of background images, time zone, and view gamer tags to connect via console.
Strategies Screen
Engaging users via liking, commenting, saving, and in app sharing features.
Simplified filtering by game for easier access to desired content.
Dedicated screen for improving users gaming by providing match highlights and useful tips.
The Results
Reflection
It was amazing immersing myself in the eSports world and understand the passionate people of the community. In retrospect, I would've loved to do some contextual inquiries with users watching a game together, or better yet, visit a tournament to capture the eSports environment and have conversations with a more diverse spectrum of eSports fans. I also think conducting A/B testing with our icons early on would have saved us from multiple navigation and feature iterations early on.
Next Steps
We tested the High Fidelity Prototype with several users, both gamers and people with little knowledge on the eSports industry to test out how intuitive we made the app, especially for users new to the gaming industry.
In order to make more changes and iterations, we would need to test the app with more users, gain more feedback, and make iterations from there.
I would like to continue to roll out features that my team ideated early on in the process, such as adding a Fantasy League feature (similar to fantasy football). We found that the gaming community is really engaged, and several of our users want more ways to interact with their friends as well as the professional eSports circuit.


THE OBJECT OF MY AFFECTION 1998 A film review by Timothy Voon Copyright 1998 Timothy Voon 3 :-( :-( :-( for not getting what ya want
Cast: Jennifer Aniston, Paul Rudd, John Pankow, Timothy Daly, Amo Gulinello, Allison Janney, Alan Alda, Nigel Hawthorne Director: Nicholas Hytner Producer: Laurence Mark Screenplay: Wendy Wasserstein based on the novel by Stephen McCauley
There are some things in life that you just can't have, no matter how much you tear your heart out trying to get it. These include a good seat on Santa's Reindeer Express, meeting Uncle Walt at Disney land, happily married men in general, or getting a gay man to change his sexual orientation in order to marry you. Ladies, spare yourself the unnecessary heart-breaking, tear-jerking disappointment. Turn your eyes from the cute guy, flirting with the rugby captain in the change rooms, and find yourself a dependable, straight guy who will be home in time to help you set the dinner table.
Having said this, I have more or less revealed how this movie will end and sadly, how pointless it becomes. Jennifer Aniston is Nina Borrowski. Her flat mate, George Hanson (Paul Rudd), a first grade teacher has recently broken up with his lover, Timothy Daly. Nina and George become the best of friends (as always), before Nina becomes unexpectedly pregnant to her casual boyfriend, Vince McBride (John Pankow). When Nina doesn't want the child to be raised by Vince, but by George, strange things start happening in Brooklyn. So much so, that George not only becomes Nina's object of affection, but also her object of fixation. When George can't return her love, you can't say you didn't try to warn her!
Part of the reason why many people will not enjoy this movie, is because of the preconceived notion that this is a romantic comedy. I will be forward and spare you the heartache, there is no romance and there is very little comedy. Part of the blame lies with the marketing of this movie. The billboard poster entails Paul Rudd holding Aniston in a romantic fashion - implying they fall in love, even though this is not the case. An innocent bystander, deceived by the billboard into watching the movie, gets a rude shock when they suddenly realise that this is not your regular ‘guy meets gal' love story.
The plot is jumbled and there is so much bed hoping, that you lose track of who is whose official partner, and who gets to sleep with whom in which room. Leaving the viewer extremely confused about everybody's sexual orientation by the end of the movie. It certainly isn't as bizarre as CHASING AMY, but when Paul Rudd kisses Amo Gulinello, a lot of the women gasped with shock. Like they weren't pre-warned that guys actually kiss guys, in a movie where half the characters are gay - once again an error on the part of marketing.
If you're feeling sorry for yourself, don't mope alone. Join Jennifer Aniston and you can't both wallow together, at not being able to obtain the object of your affections.

2010-01-23 : using my Pololu uploader, I can now upload code to my card, working fine. It is a bit annoying process but it has the bonus of saving 2kB over 16, which is cool. It works like that:
- In Arduino IDE compile and upload your code. It will not work I know BUT it will generate the .hex file in the \applet subdirectory (which is not done when doing a simple compile)
- With the win-avr, run a command prompt
- (make it a .bat for doing it simple) Run avrdude.exe :

Some of the capabilities of CodeGen require that you provide additional information about a method catalogs interfaces, methods and parameters, beyond what can be specified in the catalog itself. To achieve this CodeGen allows you to provide this additional information as necessary by creating and naming a special JSON file. The structure of the file looks like this:
[
{
"InterfaceName": "",
"CustomExpansionTokens": [
{
"Name": "",
"Value": ""
}
],
"CustomExpressionTokens": [
""
],
"Methods": [
{
"MethodName": "",
"CustomExpansionTokens": [
{
"Name": "",
"Value": ""
}
],
"CustomExpressionTokens": [
""
],
"Parameters": [
{
"ParameterName": "",
"CustomExpansionTokens": [
{
"Name": "",
"Value": ""
}
],
"CustomExpressionTokens": [
""
]
}
]
}
]
}
]
As you can see the file contains an array of objects, each of which relates to an interface defined in your method catalog. Each interface has a property named InterfaceName that allows you to specify the name of the associated interface in the method catalog.
From that point on everything is optional, you only need specify as much information as you need in order to define the custom tokens that are required to activate whatever piece of CodeGen functionality you are trying to use.
For example, if you need to specify a custom expression SAVE_RESULT_TO_CONTEXT and a custom expansion token SAVE_BUFFER_NAME with a value of OpsBufferValue, for method ops_buffer_read in interface asp, your JSON file would need to look like this:
[
{
"InterfaceName": "asp",
"Methods": [
{
"MethodName": "ops_buffer_read",
"CustomExpressionTokens": [
"SAVE_RESULT_TO_CONTEXT"
],
"CustomExpansionTokens": [
{
"Name": "SAVE_BUFFER_NAME",
"Value": "OpsBufferValue"
}
]
}
]
}
]
Once you have created your JSON file you can specify its use during code generation via the -smcext command line option.
To use the SAVE_RESULT_TO_CONTEXT expression in a template file you would use expression syntax like <IF CUSTOM_METHOD_SAVE_RESULT_TO_CONTEXT>. Note that the expression will only evaluate to true for methods that have the custom expression defined in the extensions file, all other methods will evaluate to false.
To use the SAVE_BUFFER_NAME expansion token in a template file you would use a syntax like <SAVE_BUFFER_NAME>. Note that the expansion to the associated value (OpsBufferValue) will only occur when processing methods that have the custom expansion token definedin the extensions file, no value will be inserted for other methods.
Note that custom expression and expansion token names are not case sensitive, always being converted to uppercase for comparison, but the case of expansion token values is preserved and inserted exactly as typed.

How to install on Raspbmc / Linux
First we need to install a torrent downloader called transmission. Skip this step if you already have transmission configured.
Transmission
We only need to install a daemon (service running at background) instead of full-featured client. Thanks to that, less memory will be used.
Install transmission
$ sudo apt-get install transmission-daemon
Set it to run at startup
$ sudo update-rc.d transmission-daemon defaults
Stop the deamon
$ sudo /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stop
-
Configure
$ sudo nano /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json
You may also use
vi
if you prefer, or any other editor.$ sudo vi /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json
You should at least change these settings:
-
download-dir
to some generic download directory such as ~/Downloads (lumus will move the files to destination directories from here), -
incomplete-dir
to some generic incomplete downloads directory such as ~/Downloading, -
incomplete-dir-enabled
totrue
, -
rpc-enabled
totrue
.
-
Node.js
This is a required step so that the application can run.
sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
Answer Y
if asked.
Lumus
Clone lumus sources
git clone https://github.com/ziacik/lumus.git
Go to the lumus directory
cd lumus
Install dependencies
npm install
Run
node app.js
Browse to configure
http://localhost:3001
Notes
- This howto is incomplete.
- This project is a work in progress.
- This tool does not download any content. It only provides a convenient search interface to transmission client.


Instead of public holidays I get an extra two weeks leave a year which accrues quickly. In the last two years I’ve taken just under four weeks of leave and three of those I had to take for rehabilitation following my bike accident. That means one week of recreational leave in two years, not much.
Contrary to what that might seems I’m not at all a workaholic and I think that’s the reason I feel so little compulsion to take leave.
I enjoy my job and while at work, I work hard but when my eight hours are up I go home and lead a rich life outside in my “down” time. While others either hate their jobs or work themselves into the ground to the point of desperately needing leave to rejuvenate and attend to their recreational lives, I maintain the balance.


Williamson wicket rocks New Zealand as England strike
by OmnisportEngland battled to a good position after the late scalp of Kane Williamson left New Zealand 144-4 at stumps on day two of the first Test on Friday.
A Sam Curran delivery caught New Zealand captain Williamson (51) off guard in the final session in Mount Maunganui, where the Black Caps closed the day 209 runs adrift with six wickets in hand.
After Tom Latham (8), Jeet Raval (19) and Ross Taylor (25) fell cheaply in response to England's 353, Williamson posted his 31st Test half-century before exiting to Curran (2-28).
Henry Nicholls (26 not out) survived a scary blow to the helmet off the bowling of Jofra Archer as he and BJ Watling (6 not out) saw out the remaining overs.
Earlier in the day, New Zealand produced an honest performance with the ball, having toiled on day one against England.
An eventful morning session saw Tim Southee (4-88) produce a three-wicket burst to put England on the back foot – Ben Stokes (91) the first to go after the tourists resumed on 241-4.
Stokes – who started the day on 67 – fell nine runs short of his third Test century in five matches when Taylor held on to a catch first slip.
Southee struck three times in 11 balls as he also dismissed Ollie Pope (29) and Curran (0), with Archer (4) negotiating the hat-trick ball only to fall to Trent Boult (1-97) the following over.
From the relative comfort of 277-4 to 295-8, England found themselves in trouble until Jos Buttler (43) and Jack Leach (18 not out) added some valuable runs to lead the visitors past 350 before Neil Wagner (3-90) wrapped things up following lunch.

**BARC0130 CW2: Fourier Series I & II**
**Fourier Series models of real world periodic processes**
*Deadline: Hardcopy submission @ 1000 on Monday, 29 October 2018*
*Late submissions will be penalised according to [standard UCL regulations](https://www.ucl.ac.uk/academic-manual/chapters/chapter-4-assessment-framework-taught-programmes/section-3-module-assessment#3.12).*
# General definition for an arbitrary period $T$
The function, $f(t)$, can be expressed by its Fourier Series, $F(t)$ , at those points where $f(t)$ is continuous, if:
- it is a periodic function such that $f(t+T)=f(t)$, where $T$ is the period
- it defined and it is single-valued
- it is piecewise continuous (i.e. there are a finite number of finite discontinuities) over a single period
If these properties, the **Dirichlet conditions**, are satisfied, the Fourier Series of the function is:
\begin{equation}
f(t) = \frac{a_0}{2} + \sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty{a_n\cos(n \omega t)} + \sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty{b_n\sin(n \omega t)}
\end{equation}
where $\omega = \frac{2 \pi}{T}$ and the coefficients of $F(t)$ are:
\begin{equation}
a_0 = \frac{2}{T}\int_{0}^{T}{f(t)dt}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
a_n = \frac{2}{T}\int_{0}^{T}{f(t)\cos(n \omega t)dt}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
b_n = \frac{2}{T}\int_{0}^{T}{f(t)\sin(n \omega t)dt}
\end{equation}
# Question
Consider the number of people onsite at UCL Here East at any given time, $t$, to be a periodic variable, $f(t+T) = f(t)$, where the period, $T$, is 24 hours. The site is closed from 2200 to 1000 when there are only two members of security staff onsite. The doors open at 1000 at which point 12 eager students run straight into the building to work on their projects for 12 hours. Assume no one else goes in or out of the building during this time period. The building closes at 2200, at which time all of the students are tired and leave the building to head home and rest. The security staff lock the doors for the night, remaining inside.
- Sketch $f(t)$ over two full cycles (10).
- Write out the analytical expression for $f(t)$ (10).
- Find the coefficients $a_0$, $a_n$ and $b_n$ of the Fourier Series of $f(t)$ (40).
- Using MATLAB, sketch $f(t)$ over two cycles using MATLAB's line function. On the same figure, plot the Fourier Series of $f(t)$ up to $n=10$. Use your figure to explain the concept of Gibb's phenomenon (20).
- Discuss the limitations of the model proposed in the question. Propose an enhanced analytical model, sketch its figure and write out its analytical expression. Explain how the enhanced model addresses limitations of the original model (20).
## Guidance
There are a number of integrals to evaluate for this question. They are all very straightforward, but it can get messy and unduly complicated for you if you are not well organised. Think carefully about how you lay out your work on paper. For the MATLAB component of the question, you can adapt the MATLAB script for plotting the Sawtooth Function that we discussed in class. You will find it on Moodle. The marks (out of 100) for each component of the question are indicated. If you would like any clarification about the coursework question, you must ask through the Moodle Student Forum, where any information we provide will be visible to the whole class. We will not respond to coursework related questions that are raised by email, as this risks being unfair to other students. Good luck!

Preventing Over Matching? matches are limited in scope (zero or one match only), and so are interval matches when using exact amounts or ranges. But the other forms of repetition described in this lesson can match an unlimited number of matches—sometimes too many. All the examples thus far were carefully chosen so as not to run into over matching, but consider this next example. The text that follows is part of a Web page and contains text with embedded HTML  tags. The regular expression needs to match any text within  tags (perhaps so as to be able to replace the formatting). Here's the example: This offer is not available to customers living in AK and HI. <[Bb]>.*</[Bb]>
This offer is not available to customers
living in AK and HI.
<[Bb]> matches the opening  tag (in either uppercase or lowercase), and </[Bb]> matches the closing  tag (also in either uppercase or lowercase). But instead of two matches, only one was found; the .* matched everything after the first  until the last  so that the text AK and HI was matched. This includes the text we wanted matched, but also other instances of the tags as well. The reason for this is that metacharacters such as * and + are greedy; that is, they look for the greatest possible match as opposed to the smallest. It is almost as if the matching starts from the end of the text, working backward until the next match is found, in contrast to starting from the beginning. This is deliberate and by design, quantifiers are greedy. But what if you don't want greedy matching? The solution is to use lazy versions of these quantifiers (they are referred to as being lazy because they match the fewest characters instead of the most). Lazy quantifiers are defined by appending an ? to the quantifier being used, and each of the greedy quantifiers has a lazy equivalent as listed in Table 5.1.
*? is the lazy version of *, so let's revisit our example, this time using *?: This offer is not available to customers living in AK and HI. <[Bb]>.*?</[Bb]> This offer is not available to customers living in AK and HI. That worked, by using the lazy *? only AK, was matched in the first match allowing HI to be matched independently. Note

Aegisub / Automation / Included macros
Aegisub includes several macros. Here's a line-up of them.
Apply karaoke template
This is the macro incantation of Karaoke Templater. See the page on Karaoke Templater for how to use this.
This macro is only available when there is at least one template line in the subtitle file.
Make full-width
Converts all ASCII characters to Japanese "full-width" variations of them.
This can be useful if you need to typeset a sign translation vertically, such that the letters are "stacked".
This macro modifies all lines that are currently selected in the subtitles grid.
Here's a typeset sign:
{\fn@DFPGothic-EB\fs26\shad0\fe128\bord3\3c&H25485A&\c&HDEEBF1&\pos(456,184)\frz-90}Sign text
Notice that it uses an "@-font", a variation that exists of every CJK font that has "fullwidth" characters rotated 90 degrees from the baseline. Fullwidth characters include not just these fullwidth variations of the Latin alphabet but also Japanese kana and kanji, hanzi, hanja and various punctuation characters.
Now after running this macro on the line:
{\fn@DFPGothic-EB\fs26\shad0\fe128\bord3\3c&H25485A&\c&HDEEBF1&\pos(456,184)\frz-90}Ｓｉｇｎ ｔｅｘｔ
This is what it looks before and after running the macro:
Automatic karaoke lead-in
Automatically join several karaoke-timed lines up timing-wise and add
appropriate \k
tags in front of them.
This macro is designed to help creating karaoke effects, most importantly creating transitions and lead-ins for lines. It's well suited for using when the karaoke is timed but before applying effects, such as karaoke templates.
This macro requires at least two lines to be selected and it only works
sensibly if the start-time of each selected line is larger than the
start-time of the selected line that comes before it. It changes the timing
of the selected lines and adds \k
tags at the start of them except the
first.
Here's two lines of "tightly" timed karaoke:
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.46,0:00:46.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,{\k15}Ne{\k14}ver {\k14}gon{\k13}na {\k37}give {\k40}you {\k49}up
Dialogue: 0,0:00:46.57,0:00:48.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,{\k13}Ne{\k13}ver {\k13}gon{\k13}na {\k36}let {\k46}you {\k65}down
Both lines start exactly when the first word starts being sung, and they end exactly when the last word ends.
Now if the Automatic karaoke lead-in macro is run on these two lines, they are changed into this:
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.46,0:00:46.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,{\k15}Ne{\k14}ver {\k14}gon{\k13}na {\k37}give {\k40}you {\k49}up
Dialogue: 0,0:00:46.28,0:00:48.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,{\k29}{\k13}Ne{\k13}ver {\k13}gon{\k13}na {\k36}let {\k46}you {\k65}down
The start-time of the second line is changed so it matches the end-time of
the first line, and a \k
tag is added to the start of the line, to make
up for the shift otherwise created by this. This effectively creates an
empty syllable that can be used as a "spacer" to create fade-in and fade-out
effects.
The macro also shows this message:
Smallest inter-line duration: 290 milliseconds
This simply says that the smallest duration between two lines it found, was 290 milliseconds, or 0.29 seconds, so that's as much time you have to make fade-in, fade-out and other transition effects, if you want every syllable-highlight to be fully visible.
Clean tags
This macro does various cleaning up on the override tags in all selected lines.
- Combines adjacent override blocks (i.e { ... }) except if both of the block contains \k tags each then they will be left as is
- Push any \k tags in override blocks to the front (e.g. from {\frz90\k40} to {\k40\frz90}). Special care will be taken for multiple \k tags within one block to preserve the ordering
- Move line-wide tags (i.e. tags whose effects affect the whole line -- \a \an \org \pos \move \fade \fad) to the beginning of the lines
- Remove all but first line-wide tags of the same class (note: \pos and \move are from the same class -- only first of them works in a line, therefore the script will find the first \move or \pos and retain whic of the two comes first and remove others. The same are done for \fad and \fade)
- Remove spaces in comma-separated parameters (e.g. \pos(200 , 200) becomes \pos(200,200))
This macro is also available as an export filter.
The main intended function of this macro is to make karaskel.lua split karaoke lines more sensibly into syllable structures, see the example.
This macro modifies all selected lines in the grid, re-writing all tag blocks in them.
Original line:
{\r\frz90\k80}Test {\r\fry180\k60}me
Karaskel creates these syllable structures:
- 0 = {\r\frz90}
- 1 = Test {\r\fry180}
- 2 = me
After running Clean Tags on the line:
{\k80\r\frz90}Test {\k60\r\fry180}me
Now karaskel creates these syllable structures:
- 0 =
- 1 = {\r\frz90}Test
- 2 = {\r\fry180}me
The cleaned up version is generally what you'd want since it places the override tags inside the syllables they affect.
Add Edgeblur
Add \be1
to all selected lines. Lightly blurring the
edges of all dialogue lines can noticeably improve compressibility when
hardsubbing (especially when using older
codecs such as XviD), but edgeblur cannot be set in the style due to format
limitations.
Strip tags
Remove all ASS override blocks and the tags within from the selected lines.
Select Overlaps
Select all lines which begin while another line is still active. This can be useful for catching timing errors, or for setting an alternate style for these lines, which improves readability.

This comforting, gluten-free broth is packed with fresh vegetables, while the miso paste brings great depth of flavour. Making your own bone broth adds extra goodness.
This meal provides 458 kcal, 20g protein, 72.5g carbohydrate (of which 8.5g sugars), 10g fat (of which 0.8g saturates), 9g fibre and 3g salt per portion.
Put all of the ingredients for the bone broth in a large lidded pot and cover with cold water. The water level should cover the bones by 5cm/2in while still leaving room at the top of the pan. Cover and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for at least 6 hours for chicken and 12 for beef or lamb, skimming off any foam that rises to the top. Strain the liquid and return to the pot, set aside.
Cook the buckwheat noodles according to the packet instructions, using plenty of water. During the first minute of cooking, use two forks to stir and separate the noodles.
Drain the cooked noodles and rinse under cold running water for 15-20 seconds to stop them cooking any further. Set aside to drain, then drizzle over a little sesame oil and mix through to prevent the noodles from sticking to each other.
Divide the pak choy, mushrooms, carrot and red cabbage equally among four serving bowls.
Gently heat the bone broth and stir in the grated ginger, spring onions, lime juice, miso paste and tamari.
Pour the hot broth over the vegetables, sprinkle the coriander on top and serve.


For the fig-swirl: Melt butter over medium heat in a saucepan. Add brown sugar and stir to dissolve. Halve all of the figs and toss in the saucepan with water and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until you have a chunky-jammy mixture. Add salt with one or two stirs, set aside and let cool completely.
Ice cream in a small pot over medium heat, combine milk, and granulated sugar until sugar is completely dissolved and the milk is just barely lukewarm. Whisk in the egg yolks. Set mixture in the fridge and wait until the fig mixture is cooled.
Using an ice cream machine, pour liquids into the frozen basin and process according to manufacturer instruction, i.e., let spin and thicken for 20 minutes before adding mascarpone, fig jam mixture, and the nuts.Continue to process for +/- 10 minutes. Pour semi-frozen mixture into a pyrex dish or glass tupperware. Freeze for at least two hours before serving.

ASDUS
Automatic Segment Detection using Unsupervised and Supervised Learning is a system which is designed to detect title and prose segments in HTML documents. The following sections contain more information on ASDUS. Our paper featuring ASDUS has been selected for presentation at the EMNLP (Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing) 2018 conference.
What is the need for ASDUS?
HTML documents are one of the most sought-after data sources by researchers working in different areas. HTML pages are often organized into different segments based on the topicality of the text. Each section/segment is generally started with a short text, which we term as title and followed by a relatively more substantial portion of text, which we call as prose. The below figure (retrieved from ) shows this typical organization. The text is mined from HTML pages in many different ways, but existing methods do not take advantage of this specific organization.
HTML documents can be organized in many ways and creating a rule-based system to extract title and prose text will not yield good results. The segregation of title and prose text can be leveraged to improve:
- Closed domain QA
- Information retrieval
- Summarization of web documents
What does ASDUS do?
ASDUS uses natural language processing and machine learning techniques to automatically segregate a given web document into segments, which contain the corresponding title and prose text. The input for ASDUS is the raw HTML file, and it outputs a simplified version of the input HTML file, which contains all title text in "h2" tags and all prose text in "p" tags. This simple organization makes detection of title and prose text straightforward. Below is an image which has the original HTML file on the right and the output of ASDUS on the left.
How does ASDUS work?
ASDUS consists of two separate techniques:
- Domain-Independent Method: This is solely based on unsupervised learning and does not require any training data.
- Domain-Dependent Method: This uses supervised learning and requires prior labeled data for training.
Domain-Independent Method
The below diagram depicts the various stages of this approach. This method has been developed using both Java and Python.
HTML file
The input for the Java program is the raw HTML file.
Parsing & Text Collection
The input is parsed using Jsoup (https://jsoup.org/). During parsing, empty tags are removed. The output of the parsing stage is an orderly collection of tuples with XPath as the key and the text embedding between the tags as the value.
Feature Extraction
To ensure segregation between title and prose text, a robust set of distinguishing features are required. The below features are extracted for each tuple:
- own text length
- next text length
- number of punctuation symbols
- number of sentences
- number of stop words
- number of discourse markers
- number of named entity slots
- number of words with capitalized first letter
Clustering and Segment Identification
K-means clustering is performed over the features. Each data point corresponds to each tuple and two clusters are obtained (refer figure below).
The first cluster which is the title cluster is closer to the origin and the second cluster, called the prose cluster is farther from the origin. Each textual segment of the tuple is classified into a title or prose using the k-means model. For all potential titles, an overlap score is calculated by measuring the word overlap between its words and the words from the next text segment. Based on experiments on a dev set, the overlap threshold was set to 75%. Titles with overlap scores exceeding the threshold and their corresponding XPaths are added to the list of probable title candidates.
Simple Version Generation
Each element in the final title list is marked with a custom attribute in the original HTML. To generate the simple version, a top down parse of the HTML is performed, wherein nodes with custom attribute (titles) are enclosed in "h2" tags and the text between two consecutive titles (prose) is enclosed in "p" tags. For the last segment, the prose text immediately following the title is added. For subsequent prose sections, a unigram overlap score similar to the one in the previous step is performed to avoid the addition of unrelated text. Legitimate textual content appearing before the first title is included in the final output under an uncategorized title.
Domain-Dependent Method
The below diagram depicts the various stages of this approach. This method has been developed using both Java and Python.
This method borrows the Parsing & Text Collection, Segment Identification, and Simple Version Generation stages from the domain-independent approach. Only the delta changes are explained below:
Prepare Train Data
To construct labeled data for training, we chose to use web privacy policies due to its lengthy nature, the presence of a reasonable number of segments, the presence of relatively similar content with varying HTML structure across websites and its importance to the general public. We annotated each HTML tag of 100 web privacy policies with one of the three labels: title, prose and unrelated.
Feature Extraction & Training
We built two word embedding models (using gensim), one using text from the titles and the other using prose texts. Then for text embedded in each HTML tag, we extracted these three features:
- t-score: Semantic relatedness score between title embedding and text in the tag
- p-score: Semantic relatedness score between prose embedding and text in the tag
- length
We used a feed forward neural network(h1=24, h2=48) with ReLu activation units and adagrad optimizer to train.
How well does it perform?
ASDUS is tested on a corpus of 303 web documents. This corpus is also available for download. The corpus consists of three different categories of web documents:
- Privacy policies
- Terms of service documents
- Miscellaneous documents
Please refer the dataset documentation for more details. The domain-independent approach is tested on all the documents and the domain-dependent method is tested only on privacy policies. Below are the performance figures.

Assault is an area of law I have a lot of experience with. I have resolved multiple assault charges, and I am always working on several assault charges at any time. In cases where the assault is minor, and it was a first offense, it is usually possible to convince the prosecutor to resolve the charges quickly without a criminal record.
In cases of simple assault, I can negotiate with the prosecutor to drop the charges for just $400 a month for 3 months. Contact me today at

Useful Software Metrics « Alec the Geek
Using a ticket management and capturing all issues, not matter where in our lifecycle they occur
Not all software teams have tools that allow metrics to be gathered. Without metrics we cannot answer questions about productivity, process improvement or estimating other than by (hopefully) intelligent guesswork.
How might we address that in the short term?
- Introduce a time sheet system: That's complicated and requires tools to analyse the data
- Ask people to fill on project work sheets i.e. a time sheet for a project, rather than for an individual. It should be filled as each project work product is delivered (e.g. domain model, fully dressed use cases, test cases, etc.). The sheets should be simple i.e. the deliverable, the project name, the project phase, dates and a summary total of effort and the number of people involved.
Armed with this simple information it should be possible to start gathering some more intelligent insights into how well the software process is working.

To be able to use the ping status service, the desired hosts must first be
added in settings. When all hosts have been added to settings,
press the Restart ping service button below. This will update the
ping service with the new hosts and report the ping status back to the
Zipato cloud service.
To be able to use the poweroff command, the host must first be added in
settings.
The poweroff command will attempt to shut down a host by logging in to
it and running the shutdown -h now.
Requires For this to work, a pair of authentication
keys will have to be set up between the Zipato extension
server and the target host.


 They are described in the following sections.
When using fixed- or variable-length record-based databases, particularly with flat-text backing files, there are several items that the user can control. The Recno access method can be used to store either variable- or fixed-length data items. By default, the Recno access method stores variable-length data items. The Queue access method can only store fixed-length data items.
When using the Recno access method to store variable-length records, records read from any backing source file are separated by a specific byte value which marks the end of one record and the beginning of the next. This delimiting value is ignored except when reading records from a backing source file, that is, records may be stored into the database that include the delimiter byte. However, if such records are written out to the backing source file and the backing source file is subsequently read into a database, the records will be split where delimiting bytes were found.
For example, UNIX text files can usually be interpreted as a sequence of variable-length records separated by ASCII newline characters. This byte value (ASCII 0x0a) is the default delimiter. Applications may specify a different delimiting byte using the DB->set_re_delim() method. If no backing source file is being used, there is no reason to set the delimiting byte value.
When using the Recno or Queue access methods to store fixed-length records, the record length must be specified. Since the Queue access method always uses fixed-length records, the user must always set the record length prior to creating the database. Setting the record length is what causes the Recno access method to store fixed-length, not variable-length, records.
The length of the records is specified by calling the DB->set_re_len() method. The default length of the records is 0 bytes. Any record read from a backing source file or otherwise stored in the database that is shorter than the declared length will automatically be padded as described for the DB->set_re_pad() method. Any record stored that is longer than the declared length results in an error. For further information on backing source files, see Flat-text backing files.
When storing fixed-length records in a Queue or Recno database, a pad character may be specified by calling the DB->set_re_pad() method. Any record read from the backing source file or otherwise stored in the database that is shorter than the expected length will automatically be padded with this byte value. If fixed-length records are specified but no pad value is specified, a space character (0x20 in the ASCII character set) will be used. For further information on backing source files, see Flat-text backing files.
In Queue databases, records are allocated sequentially and directly mapped to an offset within the file storage for the database. As records are deleted from the Queue, pages will become empty and will not be reused in normal queue operations. To facilitate the reclamation of disk space a Queue may be partitioned into extents. Each extent is kept in a separate physical file.
Extent files are automatically created as needed and marked for deletion when the head of the queue moves off the extent. The extent will not be deleted until all processes close the extent. In addition, Berkeley DB caches a small number of extents that have been recently used; this may delay when an extent will be deleted. The number of extents left open depends on queue activity.
The extent size specifies the number of pages that make up each extent. By default, if no extent size is specified, the Queue resides in a single file and disk space is not reclaimed. In choosing an extent size there is a tradeoff between the amount of disk space used and the overhead of creating and deleting files. If the extent size is too small, the system will pay a performance penalty, creating and deleting files frequently. In addition, if the active part of the queue spans many files, all those files will need to be open at the same time, consuming system and process file resources.
You can set the Queue extent size using the DB->set_q_extentsize() method. You can see the current extent size using the DB->get_q_extentsize() method.
It is possible to back any Recno database (either fixed or variable length) with a flat-text source file. This provides fast read (and potentially write) access to databases that are normally created and stored as flat-text files. The backing source file may be specified by calling the DB->set_re_source() method.
The backing source file will be read to initialize the database. In the case of variable length records, the records are assumed to be separated as described for the DB->set_re_delim() method. For example, standard UNIX byte stream files can be interpreted as a sequence of variable length records separated by ASCII newline characters. This is the default.
When cached data would normally be written back to the underlying database file (for example, when the DB->close() or DB->sync() methods are called), the in-memory copy of the database will be written back to the backing source file.
The backing source file must already exist (but may be zero-length) when DB->open() is called. By default, the backing source file is read lazily, that is, records are not read from the backing source file until they are requested by the application. If multiple processes (not threads) are accessing a Recno database concurrently and either inserting or deleting records, the backing source file must be read in its entirety before more than a single process accesses the database, and only that process should specify the backing source file as part of the DB->open() call. This can be accomplished by calling the DB->set_flags() method with the DB_SNAPSHOT flag.
Reading and writing the backing source file cannot be transactionally protected because it involves filesystem operations that are not part of the Berkeley DB transaction methodology. For this reason, if a temporary database is used to hold the records (a NULL was specified as the file argument to DB->open()), it is possible to lose the contents of the backing source file if the system crashes at the right instant. If a permanent file is used to hold the database (a filename was specified as the file argument to DB->open()), normal database recovery on that file can be used to prevent information loss. It is still possible that the contents of the backing source file itself will be corrupted or lost if the system crashes.
For all of the above reasons, the backing source file is generally used to specify databases that are read-only for Berkeley DB applications, and that are either generated on the fly by software tools, or modified using a different mechanism such as a text editor.
Records stored in the Queue and Recno access methods are accessed by logical record number. In all cases in Btree databases, and optionally in Recno databases (see the DB->set_flags() method and the DB_RENUMBER flag for more information), record numbers are mutable. This means that the record numbers may change as records are added to and deleted from the database. The deletion of record number 4 causes any records numbered 5 and higher to be renumbered downward by 1; the addition of a new record after record number 4 causes any records numbered 5 and higher to be renumbered upward by 1. In all cases in Queue databases, and by default in Recno databases, record numbers are not mutable, and the addition or deletion of records to the database will not cause already-existing record numbers to change. For this reason, new records cannot be inserted between already-existing records in databases with immutable record numbers.
Cursors pointing into a Btree database or a Recno database with mutable record numbers maintain a reference to a specific record, rather than a record number, that is, the record they reference does not change as other records are added or deleted. For example, if a database contains three records with the record numbers 1, 2, and 3, and the data items "A", "B", and "C", respectively, the deletion of record number 2 ("B") will cause the record "C" to be renumbered downward to record number 2. A cursor positioned at record number 3 ("C") will be adjusted and continue to point to "C" after the deletion. Similarly, a cursor previously referring to the now deleted record number 2 will be positioned between the new record numbers 1 and 2, and an insertion using that cursor will appear between those records. In this manner records can be added and deleted to a database without disrupting the sequential traversal of the database by a cursor.
Only cursors created using a single DB handle can adjust each other's position in this way, however. If multiple DB handles have a renumbering Recno database open simultaneously (as when multiple processes share a single database environment), a record referred to by one cursor could change underfoot if a cursor created using another DB handle inserts or deletes records into the database. For this reason, applications using Recno databases with mutable record numbers will usually make all accesses to the database using a single DB handle and cursors created from that handle, or will otherwise single-thread access to the database, for example, by using the Berkeley DB Concurrent Data Store product.
In any Queue or Recno databases, creating new records will cause the creation of multiple records if the record number being created is more than one greater than the largest record currently in the database. For example, creating record number 28, when record 25 was previously the last record in the database, will implicitly create records 26 and 27 as well as 28. All first, last, next and previous cursor operations will automatically skip over these implicitly created records. So, if record number 5 is the only record the application has created, implicitly creating records 1 through 4, the DBC->get() method with the DB_FIRST flag will return record number 5, not record number 1. Attempts to explicitly retrieve implicitly created records by their record number will result in a special error return, DB_KEYEMPTY.
In any Berkeley DB database, attempting to retrieve a deleted record, using a cursor positioned on the record, results in a special error return, DB_KEYEMPTY. In addition, when using Queue databases or Recno databases with immutable record numbers, attempting to retrieve a deleted record by its record number will also result in the DB_KEYEMPTY return.


Javascript: an Overview
Javascript is a widely-used scripting language for the web. Client-side JS supplies objects to make websites dynamic and responsive -- so that user events, like clicks, form input, etc., can alter the site's HTML and CSS. Server-side JS supplies objects that allow programs to be executed on a server.
In this post, I'll be going over to the best of my ability, the features of javascript, it's popularity, it's benefits and limitations, and so on.
Advantages
JS is compatible with all devices and browsers, so anything you build with it will always render. JS can be run on the client-side and the server-side. There are great JS frameworks for front-end development, like Ember.JS, Angular.JS, and Backbone.js, as well as back-end development frameworks, like node.js, and engine.io. Recently, companies like Tessel and Espruino have used JS to program and operate embedded devices.
JS is relatively easy language to learn. Variable types are determined by their value -- all variables are declared with the universal type "var".
For example, you could declare: "var x = 10", and JS would understand that x is an integer. Later on though, you could redeclare: "x = 'meow'", and JS would understand that x is now a string. JS is almost entirely object-based, and supports most object-oriented concepts as well as inheritance. Also, JS is a functional programming language. Functions can also be assigned to variables, and can accept functions as parameters. Functions can also be returned by a function.
JS is fast. It's executed on the client-side, meaning that the code is executed on the user's processor instead of the web server. This saves bandwidth and reduces strain on the web server. Also, since code is executed on the user's machine, processing is completed near instantaneously. Typically, code would be processed on the site's web server, and sent back the user. This ends up consuming local + server bandwidth. JS subverts this.
Disadvantages
There are some security issues with JS. Namely, JS snippets appended to a web page execute immediately and can thus be used to exploit the user's system. Certain restriction are set by modern browsers, though malicious code can still be executed within this restrictions.
Another disadvantage is that JS rendering can vary. Different layout engines can render JS inconsistently in terms of functionality and interface. Recent versions of JS have been written toward a universal standard; however, variations still exist.
