In The Toolbox – Libraries, Console Apps & GUIs
Generally speaking software tools come in all shapes and sizes from one-line shell scripts [1] through to office “productivity” suites and beyond. If you’re someone who uses a computer to do a non-IT related job you’re more likely to sit at the far end of the spectrum plugging away on a GUI-based line-of-business (LOB) application interspersed with copious context switches to and from your email client, word processor and spreadsheets.
On the other hand if your primary focus is within IT itself, perhaps as a system administrator, tester or programmer you’re more likely to use a selection of tools that runs the full gamut. As I’ve illustrated in a past episode of this column about the “simple” task of finding some text [2] the nature of the tool you use also takes on a different form depending on the exact nature of the problem. Not only does the choice of tool depend on what outcome you’re looking for but it also may be driving how much you know about the problem domain itself. For example a GUI based XML document viewer might allow for more freedom of navigation whilst also hiding superfluous details so that you get to see the overall document shape, whereas a simple flat text editor or command window often generally gives you all the detail until you figure out how to reduce it.
Jeffrey Snover [3], one of the principle architects of PowerShell, once said the difference between GUIs and command line tools is about learning versus automation. For a non-programming oriented audience I’ve found that to be a very useful distinction, however for those people like myself who have a penchant for programming and home-grown tools I’d like to extend his definition slightly further:
As we shall see later the addition of libraries into the mix has a knock-on effect on how we think about designing systems from the perspective of supporting them later.
Like many programmers I found the graphics capabilities of computers intriguing and it inspired me to learn more about them. The ease with which you could draw a graph on an 8-bit home computer back in the 80’s rather than stare at a table of numbers was one of the reasons I got into this game. As that moved on to animating sprites and eventually 3D models it was no surprise that my first professional programming gig involved working on graphics applications – a drawing package, desktop publisher and associated graphics tools.
Although the dominant force for graphical applications, at least in the early days, was probably down to the promise of WYSIWYG for media creation, it also provides a way to represent more abstract concepts in a visually pleasing way that affords the user a fresh perspective on the task at hand. For example although folding text editors and syntax highlighting might add some extra pizazz to a mundane XML text document and allow the basic structure to shine through a little, a more dedicated tool that uses icons for the tree structure and separates out the element’s attributes might make comprehension easier. Throw in a find first / next feature that supports XPath expressions and you can explore the document in a different way that may gel where a manual navigation approach has meant you can’t see the wood for the trees.
Graphical diagnostic tools can also be less intimidating to a more casual user and may even stand-in where the primary product fails. I’ve had a GUI based integration test harness get shipped to beta testers because it provided a means of working around temporary failings in the core product. It’s also not the only time I’ve seen test harnesses take on a life outside the development team [4]. Any tool which is written to support development is almost certainly going to be useful to support the production system too, although you way want to add some extra features to try and minimise embarrassing mistakes [5].
Naturally we’re not just limited to classic thick client applications here either. Services can expose an endpoint for control and monitoring, perhaps through an HTTP endpoint on the side, and the meteoric rise of the browser means that client-side HTML and JavaScript has its uses. If the team has a particular preference for one brand of browser then plug-ins are another way of leveraging someone else’s product to put a face on your custom functionality.
GUIs may be great for interactive use but are generally a nightmare to automate. When you’re trying to automate tasks you really need tools specifically designed for automation. Even though a UI like TortoiseGit/SVN provides access to its feature via a command line process called TortoiseProc you just know that a message box popping up on an unattended server is going to ruin your day. Then you’re into the arms race of trying to download and run a tool which watches for (and automatically presses the “OK” button on) errant message boxes when they appear.
Even OLE Automation which, as its name suggested, promised to allow GUI based office tools like Word and Excel to be programmatically driven didn’t quite work as reliably unattended as was perhaps hoped for. In the finance world where Excel is the ad-hoc pricing tool of choice, many man-years of development time has been wasted trying to automate spreadsheet calculations (server-side) on the expectation that that task was easier (or cheaper) than getting a developer to code up the same logic up in a “real” programming language. These days the Excel “calculation engine” is more accessible but one wonders what the total cost of ownership has been for some of those earlier Heath Robinson approaches and whether it really paid off in the end.
The UNIX philosophy of small, simple command line tools, composed by passing textual output from one to another is still very much alive and well today. Driving these tools effectively is often for the more seasoned user as finding the right incantation of switches and syntax might only be obtainable with a solid read of the manual (or Stack Overflow) and plenty of examples. Although the industry is slowly converging on common patterns of switch indicators and naming conventions there are still far too many cases where case-sensitivity and the ability (or not) to merge multiple single character switches will trip you up. Go and PowerShell, with its single dash and long name convention, are notable exceptions to the typical dual switch approach (i.e. short and long form). Of course on Windows you’ve always had to play the game of “slash or dash” as you’re never quite sure if you’re dealing with a native Windows tool or a UNIX port. The rise of PowerShell and the new Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) will hopefully continue to educate Windows programmers on the correct choice of command line switch character.
The new-fangled Continuous Integration / Delivery / Deployment movement has definitely helped to promote a more automated software development environment and therefore stitching together sequences of tools either with pipelines or through scripting is more essential a skill than ever. Even though there are a number of products out there that aim to give you a drag’n’drop approach to creating and managing your build pipeline I still find a single build script that can run on both a developer’s workstation and CI server side to be preferable to two different build systems. In my experience the developer one is only a pale imitation of the real one and therefore awkward to reproduce and debug, and leads to “poisoning” of the build machine as more and more junk gets installed.
Despite the plethora of desktop products which provide you with a GUI for automating all manner of tools – GUI or command line based – which are no doubt a boon for the less tech savvy, a shell still seems to be the most popular choice for sequencing operations by the IT crowd. We shouldn’t be surprised as scripting is programming after all, just with much “heavier” functions. Ultimately unless something is only going to be run on the machine you developed it on you need to consider what capabilities the target host has and that will likely be the de-fact shells. Factor in trying to get the licensing sorted for any 3rd party product and the path of least resistance wins almost every time.
In the traditional taxonomy of software tools, which is what Jeffrey Snover was no doubt aiming at, libraries do not feature as they were never really usable out-of-the-box. Native code libraries packaged in their static library form are intended to be consumed at build time which means someone needs to write a host application for them. On the other hand dynamically linked libraries could be consumed directly if you knew what entry point to poke, what arguments to pass and how. On Windows this is possible to a degree with the RunDll32 utility but it’s rarely used in practice as little things like calling conventions make this a dangerous game to play. You could invoke a void function taking no arguments fairly safely but anything else was tantamount to running around with scissors.
The Component Object Model (COM), along with a few other technologies like Visual Basic and the Active Scripting Engine, allowed libraries to become scriptable “components” by standardising the calling convention and adding some metadata to make them a little more discoverable; not quite “--help” territory but a little better. The introduction of .Net and PowerShell took the idea a step further, although one shouldn’t discount the various other Windows offerings such as IronPython and F# as suitable scripting hosts; it’s just that they aren’t installed by default.
It might seem as though the humble static library has been short-changed. The problem is that to consume these you need to have a compiler and native programming skills. But that is exactly what customisation is all about – taking the core functionality for a tool, like Git, and sticking your own console application or UI on top of it. Or, as we’ve already mentioned above with the Tortoise family you might do both. Git is a prime example because its complexity makes it hard to grasp but the success of the TortoiseGit tool is almost certainly down to bringing familiarity to those used to the simpler concepts of TortoiseSvn.
For languages that provide interop with C, and let’s face it the most common ones do, you have the option to provide plug-in shims that allow the native functionality to be exposed through an adapter and consumed by the plethora of modern, non-native (e.g. JVM) based development tools like IDEs and CI services. Pure versions often arrive later but in cases like the Git TFS bridge where the back-end libraries are proprietary it may be the only choice. It must surely be a testament to the Git client architecture that adapters for so many different VCS products have been produced that give a reasonably seamless experience.
Passing credentials into Git is an excellent example of where the strength of a good library comes in. When dealing with private repositories the ability to securely drive Git in your build pipeline without exposing your credentials in log files and environment variables was originally quite a challenge as many of the supposedly mature, off-the-shelf choices struggled with this requirement. Throw in the new-fangled “submodules” feature and it started all over again as we needed to pass different credentials along the submodule pipeline. For a while I seem to remember switching between various Git plugins and command line tools in search for the right combination that worked with our team’s “Enterprise” set-up which threw in an NTLM-based proxy for extra friction.
Oranges are not the only fruit and these libraries (static and dynamic) aren’t the only two kinds either – anyone working in the Perl, Ruby, Python, Node.js, etc. space will quickly point out that they have had a solution for consuming libraries easily for years, although they tend to talk about “packages” rather than libraries. As we know [6] these can be fragile ecosystems at times if not treated with respect due to the ever growing volume of dependencies that get pulled in as we struggle to avoid reinventing the wheel.
For development purposes where I might need a solution to a short lived problem the reward can far outweigh the risks, but having been on the roller coaster journey of breakages and fixes in areas where you would prefer to have more stable products there is much solace to be gained from simply copying a single, small binary around. In a production support scenario I’m even less enamoured by the idea of downloading half the Internet just to run a tool. In a cloud hosted environment where you typically restrict both inbound and outbound network access this would be a non-starter.
Going back to the UNIX philosophy one wonders if the notion of “small” is only considered by some to apply to the amount of functionality it provides, not the size of the ecosystem required to create, distribute and execute it.
One of the oldest concepts we should be cognisant of when building software systems is that of modular design. Breaking a system down into small building blocks that separate out concerns to try and manage complexity is an on-going battle which programmers face every day. The introduction of lower-levels of testing, e.g. at unit and component level, have definitely had an effect in this area, but another driver you might want to consider for your design is the need for custom tooling.
Systems with plenty of moving parts – databases, queues, services, etc. – have many points of failure, or alternatively, points of diagnostic access. Although it may be built entirely on open protocols and products that doesn’t mean the lowest common denominator tools are the best tools for poking around, e.g. CURL for REST APIs. We build our system out of these building blocks because we have some value to add to them, hence our tooling should add value too. For example an HTTP based API that also needs authentication for its requests soon becomes tiresome as every invocation will require at least two requests – one for the token and one for the actual operation. Wrapping this up in a script is an easy win but if you’ve built a richer proxy for use elsewhere in your system then stick a simple CLI on top and you have the makings of a deployment smoke test and support tool.
What makes this type of tooling better is that you’re leveraging the same well-tested production code in your support toolkit as what you use in the actual system. This really starts to pay off when you need to perform operations that would be considerably more dangerous if you were to hack away at the underlying 3rd party products using their more generalised tools. For example a database is just an implementation detail of a system and whilst you can poke around with a SQL tool you run the risk of violating invariants of the system that would be enforced if you went through your system’s code. An RDBMS can provide a certain degree of protection from “tinkering” if you use its referential integrity features to the fullest whereas document databases and file-systems expect the application to do most of the heavy lifting to ensure the data remains semantically valid.
To give a more concrete example imagine having a service where you handle versioning of persisted data by upgrading it at read time. Over time you end up with objects of different versions and therefore lots of code and tests to handle the various incarnations. It can get trickier to make changes as you start to consider all the variants, plus looking directly in the data store during support gets harder as you have to factor in all possible versions into your queries. If you could upgrade all the objects to a new baseline version you could then remove a lot of complexity, i.e. dead code and tests. The production code already exists to do the job; you just need to be able to access it. Although you could add a new private service endpoint you should be able to just host the underlying logic in a simple process container (e.g. scripting host) that can slowly walk the object store and call Load() followed by Save() for the instances of object that need uplifting.
By building the logic into the production code rather than the support tooling you naturally reduce the risk of a tool getting out of step with the real code and then corrupting something accidentally later. (How many people have tests for their tools?)
Aside from their primary purpose – to accomplish certain tasks more easily – custom tools also provide a useful auxiliary function which is that their lower-level focus can help with learning a new codebase. Learning a complex system comprising of many moving parts can be a daunting experience as you can struggle to find a place to start looking. Whilst the natural place might be the UI as the user is ultimately the primary point of focus, with a reporting engine however working backwards towards the inputs can be hard work. The tools won’t really help you get an overview of a system but they can be a good way to help understand how part of a system works in isolation. (Obviously a suite of component level tests would provide an even better source of discovery but rarely do you find many tests in between the unit and end-to-end levels.)
In this scenario I’ve found command line tools much better for this purpose than GUI based equivalents. What makes tests and command line tools preferable is that they both generally allow you to take a “straight line” through a piece of functionality. In essence they gather the inputs, invoke the behaviour, and do something with the outputs – exactly the same kind of approach that makes reasoning about pure functions easier. In contrast GUIs are inherently event based and therefore much of the functionality used to prepare the inputs are scattered about in different event handlers with state built up piecemeal before the final push. If the code is not well factored, and we’re talking about a custom tool here so attention to detail is less likely, then it can be harder to separate the GUI glue from the production code. For example you may have to keep one eye on the call stack or look at what namespace bits of code belong to to know if you’re inside or outside the production code for the component of interest.
In my early days as a professional programmer my preference would have been to opt for a GUI based approach, which is probably understandable as what I was working on were GUI based products. Many of the early “services” I worked on also had a built-in UI to act as a sort of “administration console” as it was far easier than building in some form of IPC and separate UI tooling back then. It wasn’t until a little while later when I started working on more traditional heavily distributed “headless” services that I started to truly appreciate the power of well factored libraries, command line tools and automation. However I still built a couple of UI based test harnesses because manual testing was still the dominate approach.
Despite a move into REST APIs for a period, which is clearly a server-side role, I’ve still had to keep my eye in on the UI based tooling as showcasing the API features both to the product owner and wider shareholders is much easier with a more user friendly approach [7]. While using classic REST tools and Swagger work up to a point, the moment the “user” journeys involve any kind of authentication the implementation details start to dominate the proceedings. A “demo UI” can also act as an exploratory testing tool for the API too so it has value outside of showcasing new features.
What is becoming more apparent to me however is that it is all too easy to stick to what you already know and create a tool which serves your immediate needs without considering its audience and whether more than one user interface might be desirable because the same the same tasks straddle the lines of analysis, development, testing, deployment and support. It’s highly understandable of course because it’s probably just a yak you’re shaving and a means to a different end than the feature you’re supposed to be delivering to your customer. Don’t forget though that non-functional user stories have considerable value too and that maybe it’s just a matter of prioritisation.
Gerry Weinberg [8] suggests that you don’t really understand a tool until you know how to abuse it at least 3 different ways. I don’t know if trying to automate Excel on a server counts as one of your three but it definitely qualifies as abuse. One presumes he was talking about the more functional aspects rather than the friction generated by having the wrong form of interface. Either way it’s important that we pay attention to what toolkit we’ve built for our system as much as the end product we’re using it on. And, if we get the design of the system right, the addition of custom tools shouldn’t be much of a burden on delivery as the functionality we need to expose will only be a few lines of code away. Our final consideration is then how we’re looking to interact with it and whether automation may be desirable, along with learning, exploration, or all those things, but in different ways.

This guide is for setting up Spark 2.2.0
on AWS EC2.
- Spark 2.2.0 requires Java 8.X
[Setting Up the Spark Cluster]
[Spark Master]
Download and install Spark
https://spark.apache.org/downloads.html
Then unpack and move the directory to your desired location.
In the ec2-user bash profile (/home/ec2-user/.bashrc), add the following:
export SPARK_HOME=<absolute path the installation of spark>
if [ -z $PATH ]
then
export PATH=<$SPARK_HOME/python>:<$SPARK_HOME/python/lib>
else
export PATH=$PATH:<$SPARK_HOME/python>:<$SPARK_HOME/python/lib>
fi
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your access key id>
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your secret access key>
where you replace all <>
entries with actual values.
We also recommend you create spark-defaults.conf
and hive-site.xml
configuration
files in the $SPARK_HOME/conf/
directory.
You will also need to add specify .jar files in order to use Derby (to create
DataFrames) and to read/write from S3.
For Derby
You can use .jar files in the lib dir in your Derby installation (see section
for Derby installation).
For S3
You can download the sdk .jar from:
https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/
Once you've created spark-defaults.conf
, add:
spark.driver.extraClassPath /:/lib/
spark.executor.extraClassPath /:/lib/
if you've placed all .jar files in a single directory, otherwise, add as many entries
as needed.
- You can add explicit file paths for each .jar, but the config file supports
*
expansion and will include all .jar files in the specified directory (though not
recursively).
Create hive-site.xml
which should look like:
- This is sets Spark to use an external rather than embedded Derby server
when it creates DataFrames. If you do not have a
hive-site.xml
file,
Spark will default to running an embedded Derby server when DataFrames
are created.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
<configuration>
<property>
<name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL</name>
<value>jdbc:derby://<derby network server host>:1527/metastore_db;create=true</value>
<description>JDBC connect string for a JDBC metastore</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionDriverName</name>
<value>org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver</value>
<description>Driver class name for a JDBC metastore</description>
</property>
</configuration>
-
Replace <derby network server host>
with the appropriate value (localhost
)
for the an instance running on the same server as the driver server (see below setup).
-
Additional configuration for Google Cloud Storage can also be added to the
hive-site.xml
file.
Start up
We use the rc.local
script that runs on startup as an entry point (to load ec2-user's
profile script, and then execute a Python script as ec2-user starting and orphaning
subprocesses as needed)
[1] Get private IP address of current server (if the current server is to be the master)
[2] Start master process
[Spark Slave]
Download and install Spark
Start up
[1] Get the private IP Address of the master server
[2] Get the processor count of the current slave server
[3] Start the process with the specified master IP and core count
[AWS EC2 Security Groups]
The respective security group(s) for Master and Slave servers need to have access on
all ports to each other (worker processes on slaves will connect to the master
server on a random high number port).
- This is simplest if your entire cluster is in a single region (i.e. 'us-west-2'), as
multi-region clusters will not only suffer from increased latency, but also will require
you to generate ingress rules based on public IP addresses, rather than security groups.
The start up processes will also need to change (from using private IP addresses to
public).
[Driver Server Config]
If you are using a server that is in your cluster, you will also have install and
configure Spark on that server. Oddly enough, paths to .jar dependencies on the
cluster machines are actually specified by configuration in the the driver server
(the server actually running the client code for your Spark application).
It is also recommended to install Derby and have it running in network server mode
on your driver server (this is used to store metadata about DataFrames in Spark,
which is managed by the driver application). If Spark is not configured to use an
external Derby Network Server, it will by default start an embedded instance.
This will, however, prevent any other process on a server from being able to use
DataFrames while application code is running.
[Installing Derby]
Download and install Derby <IP_ADDRESS>
https://db.apache.org/derby/releases/release-<IP_ADDRESS>.cgi
Then unpack and move the directory to your desired location.
Add Java policy to allow Derby to bind to port 1527
In your $JAVA_HOME\jre/lib/security/java.policy
(where `$JAVA_HOME is the location of your Java installation),
add:
grant {
permission java.net.SocketPermission ":1527", "listen";
};
where is replaced with the appropriate value (localhost if you intend to
run Derby Network Server on the same server as the Spark driver application).
- The Derby Network Server needs to have started before the driver server can create
DataFrames. The driver server will also need to have access to the Derby Network
Server (no additional configuration needed if the Derby Network Server is running
locally, which we recommend). Overhead for running Derby Network Server is trivial.

Yaml-mode 0.0.7 is now released.
This release include following bugfix:
* Fixed bug for 5th level's indentation becomes TAB character. See YAML spec 1.2 section 5.5. White Space Characters (ochko)For additional information, please visit issues on github:


This is a demo of computing the magnitude and phase response of a biquad filter. Use the sliders to change the property of the filter. Note that all filters respond to the cutoff value, but not all filters use the Q or gain parameters.


The Mapzen UI is based on spacing in multiples of 6. Use this scale as a starting point when laying out pages and sizing elements.
We have several responsive classes available to adjust vertical spacing on your page. Two of the most frequently used are .headroom
and .footroom
, which provide margin-top
and margin-bottom
spacing, respectively.
Both classes come in a few different sizes. For example: headroom
, headroom-med
, headroom-large
, and headroom-extra-large
To add vertical space between page sections, a good place to start is .headroom-large
Words about things
If you need more fine-grained spacing control over your elements, we've incorporated a set of responsive-friendly spacing utility classes (based on Bootstrap v4 spacing) into the styleguide. Use these to modify the margins and/or padding around elements.
The format for spacing classes is {property}{sides}-{breakpoint}-{size}
and allows for the following options:
{property}

THE PUPPET MASTERS A film review by Michael John Legeros Copyright 1994 Michael John Legeros
Directed by Stuart Orme Written by Ted Elliot, Terry Rossio, David S. Goyer, based on the novel by Robert A. Heinlein Cast Donald Sutherland, Eric Thal, Julie Warner, Keith David, Will Patton, Richard Belzer, and Yaphet Kotto MPAA Rating "R" (presumably for violence) Running Time 108 Minutes
==
Bring the 1951 novel THE PUPPET MASTERS into present-day and there should be at least one major character in the course of the story who chimes in the line "oh, like one of those BODY SNATCHERS movies?" Unfortunately, not once in 108 minutes does anyone on-screen make a reference to either Don Siegel's 1956 classic or the two remakes that followed. And that's too bad, because no one in THE PUPPET MASTERS should be acting as seriously as they are.
Sure, the first forty minutes are ultra-creepy as Donald Sutherland leads his crack crew of scientists through the "infested" hamlet of Ambrose, Iowa. The veteran actor-- who also appeared in the '78 remake of BODY SNATCHERS-- is appropriately stone-faced while poking around a town "taken over" by alien parasites. And, as told from the scientist's POV for a change, these first few scenes have an edgy, matter-of-fact feel.
But as the story wears on and more and more people are "compromised," Sutherland's stone-face never lifts. Nor does the film's. Instead of fun we get fight scenes, and chase scenes, and one "runaway" helicopter. Ugh. All too much for the scope of this simple, spooky story.
BOTTOM LINE: Cut thirty minutes and you'd have something here.

Straight to the Point Archery is an indoor training facility offering lessons, private coaching, parties, corporate events, and much more
About Us
Straight to the Point Archery is a non-profit archery education center founded in 2005 by Giap Nguyen. Our state of the art educational and training facility incorporates detailed technical video analysis combined with generations of archery experience from certified coaches and instructors.
Giap Nguyen started Straight to the Point Archery in 2005. He's an avid and accomplished archer himself, having competed with the United States Archery Team in the 2000 Summer Olympics. He has three children, and started Straight to the Point in part because he was not satisfied with the archery education options for them in Tacoma. After The Hunger Games books and movies came out, he noticed a surge in popularity of archery among young people, especially young women, and the business has been booming ever since.
Straight to the Point Archery is an indoor training facility with 28 shooting (14 - 10 yard lanes and 14 – 20 yard lanes) and 2 private coaching rooms. We also have access to 26 additional 20 yard lanes and an outdoor shooting field. We offer several types of lessons to accommodate everyone from the first time archer to the professional archer. Once set up with proper fitting equipment, each archer will be given the basic safety instruction to start and will be introduced to various shooting techniques.
From Beginner to Elite, archers of all ages and ability learn about this exciting Olympic and international sport. Sign up for a group lesson, private class, schedule a birthday or corporate party or compete at one of our many tournaments. Straight to the Point Archery also offers homeschooling programs, kids club events, YMCA classes, Boy and Girl Scouts achievement programs and several other youth group activities. We are dedicated to teaching valuable life skills to the youth in our community through the wonderful discipline of archery.
Coaches are qualified level 1 and level 2 instructors and have met the safety requirements of the USA Archery (USAA). We teach in a positive learning environment. Our instructors also have extensive knowledge of the most advanced archery equipment and all forms of archery from the traditional long bow to the modern compound. Straight to the Point Archery also has specific instructors for recreational archery, competitive archery and bow hunting.
Straight to the Point Archery has an excellent network of contacts with the USA Archery (USAA), Washington State Archery Association (WSAA), Washington State Bow Hunters (WSB), National Field Archery Association (NFAA) and many more national and state archery associations. These partnerships allow you to feel confident in our facility and staff.
With decades of experience in the archery industry, we are committed to educating you with any questions that you may have.

| We present a mutual information-based framework for unsupervised image-to-image translation. Our MCMI approach treats single-cycle image translation models as modules that can be used recurrently in a multi-cycle translation setting where the translation process is bounded by mutual information constraints between the input and output images. The proposed mutual information constraints can improve cross-domain mappings by optimizing out translation functions that fail to satisfy the Markov property during image translations. We show that models trained with MCMI produce images with increased quality and more semantically-relevant mappings compared to state-of-the-art image translation methods. The MCMI framework can be applied to existing unpaired image-to-image translation models with minimum modifications. Qualitative experiments and a perceptual study demonstrate the image quality improvements and generality of our approach using several backbone models and a variety of image datasets. |

Sorry, but your credit card was declined, so no holiday for you. I'm sure you did even really want to go on a holiday. You get very easily sunburnt.


Build Robust & Production Quality Applications: Precourse, From Ideas to Products
27 Nov 2014The Process of Going from Ideas to Products
Prototype process for web applications
Step 1. You have an idea
Step 2. Build wireframes
- balsamiq mockups
- moqups.com
Purpose:
- Communication: not for design but merely for commuincation (to yourself, designers, devs, and the client)
- Workflow
- Scoping
Points for wireframing:
- Don't over design, this is to quickly put together a concept
- When you wireframe - you want to do several versions and iterate from there. This will free your from the attachment to your idea.
Step 3. Design
Provides: * Layout * Colors * Typogaphy * Look & Feel ** Tools: Typically Photoshop, producing a .psd file
Step 4. Slicing Taking the .psd file and turning it into mockups. At this point, you want your .psds to as pixel perfect as possible because this is where we turn the psd into html/css
Step 5. Development
The advantage of this process is that it isolates the each step into layers, allowing you to explore many alternatives at each step.

Nature Rejuvenation is an art. If one wishes to restore / improve any vacant land, agricultural field or a patch of degraded jungle, one needs to assess the native / local level natural attributes at and around the given site. One needs to understand the guidelines and framework suggested by Nature in order to succeed in such an endeavour. Every place has its own needs, which can be studied and recognised by experts and measures can be undertaken to increase the pace at which Nature can do the restoration work.
Our natural resources are dwindling at an alarming rate, and it is the duty of us all to do our own bit to restore the natural balance. Many people residing in cities have a piece of land adjacent to the city or in some nearby village. Most often, due to lack of proper information and guidance, such people do not know how they can use these lands for restoring Nature. “Punarnava” can provide following services in this respect…

I will start with the fact that I cannot fully recall most of the details during this trip, but I will do my best to describe generally what I was feeling and seeing at the time.
Being only my second time doing shrooms, I decided I needed a chill place to trip, and a good friend to trip with. J, a friend from school, was more than happy to supply the goods as well as be my fellow tripper buddy, or whatever. We decided that an eigth each would suffice for an incredible trip, but dealing with this amount we realized we would have to be in a very controlled setting or else things could go horribly wrong. Which they did.
On a sunny friday evening, we decided to go to J's house to trip. His porch was a really nice setting for the trip; he had comfortable chairs, a river in the distance, and a huge woodsy yard to hang around in.
T-0:00 At around 6:00, we both started with half of our doses, about 1.75 g each. This was the first time I had actually eaten the shrooms straight(before I had eaten them in chocolate), and it was a suprisingly easy and quick job. After downing the shrooms, we each grabbed a glass of water and sat down on J's comfortable porch seats. J lit up a cigarette, and we just relaxed and let the shrooms hit us.
T-0:30 After about a half an hour, I already started feeling some fuzzy sensation throughout my body, and mild hallucinations that could be paralleled to a marijuana buzz. J and I began to philosiphize, because honestly it's what we do best. We talked for close to an hour about life in general. I claimed that there was no universal truth, perception is all we have, and each persons perception is different. We went deeper and deeper into the philosophy as well as in the trip.
T-1:00 At this point I was really starting to feel a change. I looked up at the trees blowing softly in the wind, noticing the intricacy of every leaf moving in its own way, almost resembling a green sea filled with life and a mind of their own. I then noticed the fence of the porch directly in front of me. I began to see a strange aura around each individual piece of wood, with a slight amount of bending and breathing going on at the same time. I looked over at J, and could tell he was deep into the trip as well.
T-1:15 At this point we decided to go inside for a while since it was getting dark, and J recommended that we listen to some music, preferably Pink Floyd. When the music started, J and I immediately felt at one with the music and began dancing. The trip was going absolutely fantastic; the music was flowing through me, and I could pick out each instrument and hear every note that it was playing. As I danced with what seemed like an unlimited source of energy, I looked at the carpet and noticed that it was waving and rippling almost like water.
T-1:45 My friend J's brother M(who also happened to be my friend)got home from somewhere at this point in time. He wasn't going to be tripping for the night, but he did have a good amount of weed, so we decided to puff a little. M had a couple friends over, and we all cheefed on the bowl for about a half an hour. The trip was going hard, and I was feeling oh sooo good. I then realized that we had only taken half of our doses, and told J it was probably time to finish it up. All I could think at this point was, 'Man I'm reallly tripping! Imagine the possibilities if I take even more! So I did, and J did.
T-2:15 after about a half an hour of hangin out with people, I started getting a funny feeling in the pit of my stomach. This was the turning point in the trip, where things went from great to reallly bad. I had an amazing amount of self awareness at this point, I could almost see myself in the third person perspective. This awareness lead to being way too self concious, however. I started feeling my tongue inside my mouth and throat to an intense degree. I would have certain instances where I felt like I was feeling my mouth from outside of my body, a very weird sensation. I started to almost feel like if I wasn't careful, I would swallow my tongue. I tried to keep cool, but I was really beginning to get freaked out.
T-2:30 I figured some water might do me some good at this point, but when attempting to drink it, I had absolutely no coordination, and could barely swallow. I gave up with the water, and went to the bathroom to wash my face. In the bathroom, I looked into the mirror, and what I saw freaked me out. I simply could not recognize what I was seeing in the mirror.  I went back upstairs to be with everyone, and told J I was starting to get anxious. He calmed me down momentarily, but as I sat down and watched the kids around me interact, I felt like when I focused on a single person that I was that person. Questioning ones own identity is an odd experience indeed. I started wondering if I was really my brother, my friend, and so on.
 He said that it was cool and that I could sleep on the couch downstairs. As I headed downstairs, I started to feel a deep confusion coming on. When I reached to pick up a blanket, it morphed into the shape of an alien, so I closed my eyes, yanked the blanket as fast as I could and jumped on the couch. After being still on the couch for about 20 seconds, I began to feel that I was melting through the couch. I could not get comfortable, so I sat up. That is when the sounds began.
They started as high pitched sounds, just random squeeks and hums, kind of rotating around the room. As I got more scared from these sounds, I felt the world around me getting darker and darker. As the room got darker, my face felt like it was stretching, and at the same time the noises I was hearing got lower pitched and louder. Then the low pitched noise almost turned into a loud BOOMing sound. I was so freaked out that I sprinted upstairs to see what Jon was doing.
 He calmed me down a bit, but I was ancy as hell, and nothing could stop that. The last stage of the trip that really scared me the most began at that point.  I didn't even realize that I was smiling, and attempted to adjust it. My face began responding ridiculously. It started twitching uncontrollably, which freaked the hell out of me. Jon realized that I needed some help, so he gave me some prozac, which he claimed would lessen the trip.
T-4:00 I felt a lot better at this point. I was still tripping hard, and everything started to look really digital and pixelated, but I was getting more relaxed. Me, J and M decided to watch The Big Lebowski, a hilarious movie. Unfortunately for me, I had no idea what the hell was going on in the movie.  At one point I actually saw my own face on one 'the Dude's' face, which I found amusing at this point. From this point on, everything was getting a lot more enjoyable again, but I was also getting really tired, probably from the prozac considering shroom trips usually last longer than 4 hours.
To sum it up, this experience mostly sucked.  I had no control over anything. But in all it was at least mind-blowing, which can be a good thing to remember in the future. I tried shrooms once more after this instance, and had the most pleasurable experience ever.
Peace!

Fox Sports won’t use Van Basten for a week after “sieg heil”
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) - Retired Dutch football star Marco van Basten has been benched for a week by Fox Sports for saying “sieg heil” on air.
Van Basten, working as an analyst, was off camera on Saturday when he used the German phrase for “hail victory” that became notorious for its use at Nazi rallies.
Van Basten, who made the comment after a German coach had been interviewed by a reporter, apologized later in the show.
Fox Sports said in a statement on Monday that it distanced itself from the comment, which the broadcaster called “stupid and inappropriate.”
Fox says it will not use Van Basten as an analyst this week and will donate his fee to a Dutch institute to promote knowledge about World War II.
Van Basten was a striker for Ajax and AC Milan and was one of the stars of the Netherlands team that won the European Championship in 1988.
After his playing career, he coached the Netherlands and other teams and was a senior official at FIFA.

Respond to a money claim
You need to respond to the money claim within 14 days of receiving the claim.
Your response will be sent to the claimant (the person or organisation who says you owe them money). The claimant can apply for a County Court Judgment (CCJ) against you if you don't respond in time. They can then use this to get the money from you. For example, they could hire bailiffs.
A CCJ may make it harder to get credit, such as a mobile phone contract, credit card or mortgage.
If you think you’re owed money
If you believe the claimant owes you money you can make a claim against them (‘counterclaim’). You can do this as part of your response to the claim against you.
If you can't afford to pay the money back
You might be able to get free legal advice about dealing with debt from organisations like StepChange Do this after you finish responding to the claim against you.

The last trip was a few months ago. Instead of going into the details of my trip, I would like to offer what I've learned about my experience.
The unconscious becomes awakened to the conscious self. All the person's hopes, dreams and life in general can come rocketing out of the sub-conscious. This leads to a sense of joy and euphoria. Later, this turned negative when I was confronted with the harsh realities that life doesn't always go as I would like or plan. This was due to my actions and responses to what my hidden fears are and what I know to be reality. I admit that this was disturbing to me at first. I felt as if I was falling (not literally, but in the general sense) and it became difficult for me to get on with the rest of my life. Recently I turned to meditations and Tai-Chi in order to 'get a grip' on the way that I am and to move forward. Luckily, I found some spiritual people and fellow acid heads to guide me through the mess that I thought I was creating for myself. (In truth I was creating a mess without really knowing it and what to do about it.)
Now, I am developing a greater understanding of 'who I am' and 'where I came from.' Each time I meditate and perform the steps that I know are necessary, a greater sense of myself deepens and grows.
There is some truth to the dangers of tripping. The proper context, setting and timing are very important. What happens to a person when they come down can be troublesome if you're not careful, as I discovered. It doesn't matter how well-adjusted you may think you are. People who are 'loopy' to begin with probably wouldn't even notice the difference.
I will recommend to anyone to at least try the drug. I myself used it 5-7 times in the last 12 years with only 1 trip that had mixed results. The others were a lot of fun. Tripping does nothing to a person that isn't already there. Those who are fearful or unhappy will discover why, as opposed to those who are always happy and joyful. Those who blame the drug for whatever it is that they became later, after they had a bad trip, never took the time to stop and think about who they are.
 This only makes matters worse. Never try to rationalize away anything. I don't believe in 'talking yourself out of it.' You are only pushing the dirt under the carpet, so to speak. It will only creep up on you later. Take a deep breath once in awhile and try something new. You only live once. The most powerful drug in the world can never change the way that you are. If anything it can give you a chance to have a look at yourself and let you decide what you think and if you don't know, ask questions.
So what did I discover about myself? That I think and worry too much.... Oh well, live and learn. I can't say that I am proud to have this experience but at least I learned something.

--- layout: page permalink: /providers/vpn/ title: "VPN Services" description: "Find a no-logging VPN operator who isn't out to sell or read your web traffic." ---
Using a VPN will not keep your browsing habits anonymous, nor will it add additional security to non-secure (HTTP) traffic.
If you are looking for anonymity, you should use the Tor Browser instead of a VPN.
If you're looking for added security, you should always ensure you're connecting to websites using HTTPS. A VPN is not a replacement for good security practices.
If you're looking for additional privacy from your ISP, on a public Wi-Fi network, or while torrenting files, a VPN may be the solution for you as long as you understand the risks involved.
Download Tor Tor Myths & FAQ More InfoThe answer to this question is not a particularly helpful one: It depends. It depends on what you're expecting a VPN to do for you, who you're trying to hide your traffic from, and what applications you're using.
In most cases, VPNs do little to protect your privacy or enhance your security, unless paired with other changes.
VPNs cannot encrypt data outside of the connection between your device and the VPN server. VPN providers can see and modify your traffic the same way your ISP could. And there is no way to verify a VPN provider's "no logging" policies in any way.
In most cases, your traffic is already encrypted! Over 98% of the top 3000 websites offer HTTPS, meaning your traffic is safe regardless of using a VPN. It is incredibly rare for applications that handle personal data to not support HTTPS in 2019, especially with services like Let's Encrypt offering free HTTPS certificates to any website operator.
Even if a site you visit doesn't support HTTPS, a VPN will not protect you, because a VPN cannot magically encrypt the traffic between the VPN's servers and the website's servers. Installing an extension like HTTPS Everywhere and making sure every site you visit uses HTTPS is far more helpful than using a VPN.
VPNs cannot provide strong anonymity. Your VPN provider will still see your real IP address, and often has a money trail that can be linked directly back to you. You cannot rely on "no logging" policies to protect your data.
The idea that your IP address is sensitive information, or that your location is given away with all your internet traffic is fearmongering on the part of VPN providers and their marketing. Your IP address is an insignificant amount of personal data tracking companies use to identify you, because many users' IP addresses change very frequently (Dynamic IP addresses, switching networks, switching devices, etc.). Your IP address also does not give away more than the very generalized location of your Internet Service Provider. It does not give away your home address, for example, despite common perception.
By using a VPN with Tor, you're creating essentially a permanent entry node, often with a money trail attached. This provides 0 additional benefit to you, while increasing the attack surface of your connection dramatically. If you wish to hide your Tor usage from your ISP or your government, Tor has a built-in solution for that: Tor bridges. Read more about Tor bridges and why using a VPN is not necessary.
A VPN may still be useful to you in a variety of scenarios, such as:
For use-cases like these, or if you have another compelling reason, the VPN providers we listed above are who we think are the most trustworthy. However, using a VPN provider still means you're trusting the provider. In pretty much any other scenario you should be using a secure-by-design tool such as Tor.
