Function: SB-EXT:FINALIZE¶
Arrange for the designated FUNCTION to be called when there are no more references to OBJECT, including references in FUNCTION itself.
If DONT-SAVE is true, the finalizer will be cancelled when SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE is called: this is useful for finalizers deallocating system memory, which might otherwise be called with addresses from the old image.
In a multithreaded environment FUNCTION may be called in any thread. In both single and multithreaded environments FUNCTION may be called in any dynamic scope: consequences are unspecified if FUNCTION is not fully re-entrant.
Errors from FUNCTION are handled and cause a WARNING to be signalled in whichever thread the FUNCTION was called in.
Examples:
;;; GOOD, assuming RELEASE-HANDLE is re-entrant. (let* ((handle (get-handle)) (object (make-object handle))) (finalize object (lambda () (release-handle handle))) object)
;;; BAD, finalizer refers to object being finalized, causing ;;; it to be retained indefinitely! (let* ((handle (get-handle)) (object (make-object handle))) (finalize object (lambda () (release-handle (object-handle object)))))
;;; BAD, not re-entrant! (defvar rec nil)
(defun oops () (when rec (error “recursive OOPS”)) (let ((rec t)) (gc))) ; or just cons enough to cause one
(progn (finalize “oops” #’oops) (oops)) ; GC causes re-entry to #’oops due to the finalizer ; -> ERROR, caught, WARNING signalled

Peppermint cream sandwich biscuits recipe
by Xanthe ClayMaking peppermint creams is a childhood tradition, and they’re even better sandwiched between chocolatey biscuits.
Prep time: 45 minutes, plus 1 hour chilling | Cooking time: 12-15 minutes
MAKES
About 16
INGREDIENTS
- 250g plain flour
- 20g cornflour
- 75g golden caster sugar
- 40g cocoa powder
- 200g cold salted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the filling
- 75g white chocolate, chopped
- 75g unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 150g icing sugar
- Peppermint extract, added to taste (I used 1 ½tsp of Steenbergs but other brands may vary in strength)
- Cranberry jelly or hundreds and thousands to decorate (optional)
METHOD
- In a food processor, blend the flour, cornflour, sugar and cocoa powder.
- Grate the cold butter and add that, along with the vanilla extract and one tablespoon of water. Whizz in the processor until it looks sandy.
- Tip out on a work surface and draw the mix together, kneading lightly, into a crumbly dough – sprinkle over another spoonful of water if necessary.
- Roll out the dough on a sheet of baking paper to ½cm thick. Cover and chill in the fridge for about an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/Gas 4.
- Cut the dough out with biscuit cutters, rerolling the trimmings. To make Jammie-Dodger style biscuits, use smaller cutters to stamp out holes in half of them. Lay on two baking sheets lined with baking paper (you can reuse the piece you used earlier). Bake for 12-15 minutes until dry to the touch. Cool on a wire rack.
- To make the filling, put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Place over a pan of hot water to melt, or try 10-second bursts in the microwave – but be careful, it can burn easily.
- Beat the butter with the icing sugar until fluffy, then beat in the chocolate and the peppermint extract.
- Put a dollop of filling on half the biscuits and top with a second biscuit, pressing down lightly. Leave to set.
- If you have made Jammie Dodger-style biscuits you can fill the hole with a little cranberry jelly (heat it gently first and rub it through a sieve) or hundreds and thousands.

Loop Utility Token
|
Description
|
|
<,>
|
Inserts a comma UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<,AND>
<,and>
|
Inserts nothing if the final loop iteration is being performed. Inserts the text " AND " if the last but one iteration is being performed. Otherwise inserts a comma and a space. This token can be useful when producing documentation, as it allows you to generate text like "The primary colors are red, green and blue."
|
|
<,OR>
<,or>
|
Inserts nothing if the final loop iteration is being performed. Inserts the text " OR " if the last but one iteration is being performed. Otherwise inserts a comma and a space. This token can be useful when producing documentation, as it allows you to generate text like "Select a primary color red, green or blue."
|
|
<+>
|
Inserts a plus sign UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<:>
|
Inserts a colon UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<&&>
|
Inserts a logical AND operator (&&) UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<.AND.>
|
Inserts a Synergy logical AND operator (.AND.) UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<AND>
|
Inserts the word AND UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<|>
|
Inserts a pipe character (|) UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<||>
|
Inserts a logical OR operator (||) UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<.OR.>
|
Inserts a Synergy logical OR operator (.OR.) UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<OR>
|
Inserts the word OR, UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<BSLASH>
|
Inserts a backward slash character (\) UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<FSLASH>
|
Inserts a forward slash character (/) UNLESS the final loop iteration is being processed, in which case inserts nothing.
|
|
<PROCESSED_EXCLUSIVE>
|
Inserts the number of items already processed by the current loop EXCLUDING the current item. For example, if a loop with 10 items is being processed, and the 8th item is currently being processed, the value 7 will be inserted. This is because 7 items have already been processed before the current item.
|
|
<PROCESSED_INCLUSIVE>
|
Inserts the number of items already processed by the current loop INCLUDING the current item. For example, if a loop with 10 items is being processed, and the 8th item is currently being processed, the value 8 will be inserted. This is because the loop is currently processing the 8th item.
|
|
<REMAINING_EXCLUSIVE>
|
Inserts the number of remaining items to be processed by the current loop EXCLUDING the current item. For example, if a loop with 10 items is being processed, and the 8th item is currently being processed, the value 2 will be inserted. This is because there are 2 items still to be processed after the current item.
|
|
<REMAINING_EXCLUSIVE_MAX_n>
|
Similar to <REMAINING_EXCLUSIVE> except that if the number of items remaining is greater than n (a positive integer value) then the value of n will be inserted.
|
|
<REMAINING_INCLUSIVE>
|
Inserts the number of remaining items to be processed by the current loop INCLUDING the current item. For example, if a loop with 10 items is being processed, and the 8th item is currently being processed, the value 3 will be inserted. This is because there are 3 items still to be processed, including the current field.
|
|
<REMAINING_INCLUSIVE_MAX_n>
|
Similar to <REMAINING_INCLUSIVE> except that if the number of items remaining is greater than n (a positive integer value) then the value of n will be inserted.
|
|
<REPLICATION_REMAINING_EXCLUSIVE_MAX_n>
|
Intended for use specifically in the ISAM to SQL Replication environment, this token behaves like <REMAINING_EXCLUSIVE_MAX_n> except that the total number of items to be processed is reduced by the number of fields that contain the string REPLICATOR_EXCLUDE in fields user defined text or long description fields.
|
|
<REPLICATION_REMAINING_INCLUSIVE_MAX_n>
|
Intended for use specifically in the ISAM to SQL Replication environment, this token behaves like <REMAINING_INCLUSIVE_MAX_n> except that the total number of items to be processed is reduced by the number of fields that contain the string REPLICATOR_EXCLUDE in fields user defined text or long description fields.
|
|
<TOTAL_ITEMS>
|
Inserts the total number of items that will be processed by the current loop.
|

- (void)collectionView:(SSCollectionView *)aCollectionView willDeselectItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
Parameters
- aCollectionView
A collection view object informing the delegate about the impending selection.
- indexPath
An index path locating the item in
aCollectionView
to be deselected.
Return Value
An index-path object that confirms or alters the deselected item. Return an NSIndexPath
object other than
indexPath
if you want another item to be deselected. Return nil
if you don’t want the item deselected.

- (void)collectionView:(SSCollectionView *)aCollectionView willDisplayItem:(SSCollectionViewItem *)item atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
Parameters
- aCollectionView
The collection view object informing the delegate of this impending event.
- item
A collection view item object that
aCollectionView
is going to use when drawing the item.
- indexPath
An index path locating the item in
aCollectionView
.
Discussion
Tells the delegate the collection view is about to draw an item for a particular index path.
A collection view sends this message to its delegate
just before it uses item to draw a portion of a row, thereby
permitting the delegate
to customize the item
object before it is displayed. This method gives the delegate
a
chance to override state-based properties set earlier by the collection view, such as selection and background color.
After the delegate
returns, the collection view sets only the alpha and frame properties, and then only when
animating items as they slide in or out.
Declared In
SSCollectionView.h

- (void)collectionView:(SSCollectionView *)aCollectionView willSelectItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
Parameters
- aCollectionView
A collection view object informing the delegate about the impending selection.
- indexPath
An index path locating the row in
aCollectionView
.
Return Value
An index-path object that confirms or alters the selected item. Return an NSIndexPath
object other than
indexPath
if you want another item to be selected. Return nil
if you don’t want the item selected.
Discussion
Tells the delegate that a specified item is about to be selected.
This method is not called until users touch an item and then lift their finger; the item isn’t selected until then, although it is highlighted on touch-down.
Declared In
SSCollectionView.h

I am currently studying at Instituto Tecnológico de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey (ITESM for short) to get my major in Computer Science. I've been very passionate about science and technology since junior highschool. That's why I always try to learn new things, and as result, most of my free time goes into studying.
I love programmig, developing apps, webpages, and videogames (as well as playing them). Other hobbies of mine include: Aikido, hiking, fishing, and watching movies.
Finally, I would like to add that I had the opportunity to attend Carnegie Mellon University as an exchange student for Spring and Fall of 2016, and I am a proficient spanish, english and german speaker. Without further delay, welcome to my personal webpage and portfolio, feel free to look around!

Query function. Returns TRUE if the expression does not evaluate to UNDEFINED. Inequality queries include undefined values in their query results. With the IS_DEFINED function, you can limit results to only those elements with defined values. |
See Preset Query Functions |
| IS_UNDEFINED |
Query function. Returns TRUE if the expression evaluates to UNDEFINED. With the exception of inequality queries, most queries do not include undefined values in their query results. The IS_UNDEFINED function allows undefined values to be included, so you can identify elements with undefined values. |
See Preset Query Functions |
| LIMIT |
Limits the number of returned results. If you use the limit keyword, you cannot also run operations on the query result set that perform any kind of summary activities. For example trying to run add or addAll or a SelectResult from a query with a LIMIT clause throws an exception. |
See LIMIT |
| LIKE |
LIKE can be used to mean ‘equals to’, or if you terminate the string with a wildcard character (% ), it behaves like 'starts with’. Note that the wildcard can only be used at the end of the comparison string. You can escape the wildcard character to represent the % character. You can also use the LIKE predicate if an index is present. |
See LIKE |
| NOT |
The example returns the set of portfolios that have positions. Note that NOT cannot use an index. |
See Operators |
| NVL |
Returns expr2 if expr1 is null. The expressions can be query parameters (bind arguments), path expressions, or literals. |
See Preset Query Functions |
| OR |
If an expression uses both AND and OR operators, the AND expression has higher precedence than OR. |
See Operators |
| ORDER BY |
Allows you to order query results (either in ascending or descending order). |
See ORDER BY |
| SELECT |
Allows you to filter data from the collection of object(s) returned by a WHERE search operation. |
See SELECT Statement |
| SET |
Specifies a collection of values that can be compared to the returned values of query. |
See IN and SET |
| <TRACE> |
Enables debugging on the following query string. |
See Query Debugging |
| TO_DATE |
Returns a Java Data class object. The arguments must be String S with date_str representing the date and format_str representing the format used by date_str. The format_str you provide is parsed using java.text.SimpleDateFormat. |
See Preset Query Functions |
| TYPE |
Specifying object type in the FROM clause helps the query engine to process the query at optimal speed. |
See Object Typing |
| WHERE |
Resolves to a collection of objects. The collection is then available for iteration in the query expressions that follow in the WHERE clause. |
See WHERE Clause |

‘Call of Duty Mobile’ Is Getting Controller Support And Zombies In An Update, Here’s What Time
by Dave ThierCall of Duty: Modern Warfare may be dominating the conversation where Activision’s major shooter franchise is concerned, but there’s another, surprisingly competent mobile port that’s simmering there in the background as well. Call of Duty Mobile just announced that it’s going to get a major update with two of its most-request features in two: full controller support and zombies. Technically you can already use a controller in Call of Duty Mobile via a roundabout official PC emulator, but this is going to significantly simplify the process. The team announced the new features in a Reddit post. They’ll arrive with an update at 12:00 AM Eastern time, November 23. Here are some international launch times:
- Los Angeles: Nov 22 - 21:00 PST
- New York: Nov 23 - 00:00 EST
- Sao Paulo: Nov 23 - 2:00 BRT
- London: Nov 23- 5:00 GMT
- Stockholm: Nov 23 - 6:00 CET
- Berlin: Nov 23 - 6:00 CET
- Moscow: Nov 23 - 8:00 MSK
- New Delhi: Nov 23 - 10:30 IST
- Sydney: Nov 23 - 16:00 AEDT
- Tokyo: Nov 23 - 14:00 JST
The post also talks about the new battle pass, which will be coming our way on November 25, though there aren’t many new details on that yet.
I’m excited: Call of Duty Mobile might be understandably a little bit less involved than its big sibling over on console, but it’s a pleasing way to while away some time and a relatively successful translation of what can make Call of Duty essentially satisfying. And zombies fits right into that: I’m a PvE player before I’m a PvP player, for the most part, and I hope that the mobile version of that experience can scratch that itch while I’m watching Great British Baking Show, or whatever.
I am curious as to how the game is going to handle controllers where matchmaking is concerned, however. A controller offers a benefit over touchscreen controls, just like mouse and keyboard offers a benefit over a controller. Fortnite has been messing around with how to do matchmaking across a range of inputs for a while now, recently deciding to move away from strict input-based matchmaking and towards skill-based matchmaking, meaning that people with touchscreens might come up against mouse and keyboard users, but only if they’re good enough to pose a theoretical challenge.
There may come a time when we’re all just streaming console-style games to our phones, but it’s clear that that time isn’t happening yet. Until then, I’m more than happy to play simpler experiences geared for touchscreen controls.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hints at lack of Man Utd transfer activity in January
Man Utd are expected to chase January reinforcements - but Solskjaer hinted they might not be so active
by Rich Jones, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/rich-jones/Ole Gunnar Solskjaer appeared to hint there may be a lack of transfer activity in January after their defeat to Bournemouth .
The Red Devils suffered a 1-0 defeat against the Cherries, again drawing blanks up front as their struggle for goals continued.
Solskjaer previously stated he would be in the market for attacking reinforcements in January after failing to replace Romelu Lukaku or Alexis Sanchez in the summer.
But the Norwegian appeared to double-down on those claims after Saturday's game as he hinted there might not be any new additions up front.
Instead, he claimed they need their current squad - with Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial - leading the line rather than relying on signings to save their season.
"To win games you need to score goals and I'm sure Anthony and Marcus are going to get their share of goals," Solskjaer said. "Anthony's just gonna improve but we need more creativity.
"But we've got loads of players here in the squad who could create more, it's not just look outside, we have to do with what we have."
United have scored just 13 goals in 11 Premier League games, which included four on the opening day against Chelsea .
Speaking earlier this season about their lack of goals, Solskjaer declared: "You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know it's a forward we're going to try to recruit next time.
"We're looking for some creativity and goals, but they [potential signings] have to be the right one.
"There were strikers available [in the summer] but not the ones we wanted. We couldn't get the one we wanted."
Experienced names Mario Mandzukic and Thomas Muller have been linked, as well as Moussa Dembele and Callum Wilson.

How to add LEDs to a track jacket
by John StruanThe project starts with finding the exact right jacket:
The jacket I picked is the adidas Originals Superstar Track Jacket. I wanted this one because it features the iconic trefoil logo and calls back to the 80’s b-boy b-girl era. What we’re really looking for is how the stripes are attached. The white stripes are sewn on top of the black base jacket using two parallel rows of stitches 8mm apart. This creates a fabric tube that we can insert our LEDs into.

The group looked great at the Neotropolis Bar in Los Angeles:

This module provides functions that faciliate encoding name/value pairs as multipart/form-data suitable for a HTTP POST or PUT request.
multipart/form-data is the standard way to upload files over HTTP
| Function | gen_boundary 0 | Returns a random string to use as the boundary for a message |
| Function | gen_boundary | Returns a random string to use as the boundary for a message |
| Function | encode_and_quote | If ``data`` is unicode, return urllib.quote_plus(data.encode("utf-8")) |
| Class | MultipartParam | Represents a single parameter in a multipart/form-data request |
| Function | encode_string | Returns ``name`` and ``value`` encoded as a multipart/form-data |
| Function | encode_file_header | Returns the leading data for a multipart/form-data field that contains |
| Function | get_body_size | Returns the number of bytes that the multipart/form-data encoding |
| Function | get_headers | Returns a dictionary with Content-Type and Content-Length headers |
| Function | multipart_encode | Encode ``params`` as multipart/form-data. |
``boundary`` is the boundary string used throughout a single request to separate variables.
``paramname`` is the name of the variable in this request.
``filesize`` is the size of the file data.
``filename`` if specified is the filename to give to this field. This field is only useful to the server for determining the original filename.
``filetype`` if specified is the MIME type of this file.
The actual file data should be sent after this header has been sent.
``params`` should be a dictionary where the keys represent parameter names, and the values are either parameter values, or file-like objects to use as the parameter value. The file-like objects must support .read() and either .fileno() or both .seek() and .tell().
If ``boundary`` is set, then it as used as the MIME boundary. Otherwise a randomly generated boundary will be used. In either case, if the boundary string appears in the parameter values a ValueError will be raised.
Returns a tuple of `datagen`, `headers`, where `datagen` is a generator that will yield blocks of data that make up the encoded parameters, and `headers` is a dictionary with the assoicated Content-Type and Content-Length headers.

Abstract: Experimental data have shown that synapses are heterogeneous: different synapses respond with different sequences of amplitudes of postsynaptic responses to the same spike train. Neither the role of synaptic dynamics itself nor the role of the heterogeneity of synaptic dynamics for computations in neural circuits is well understood. We present in this article methods that make it feasible to compute for a given synapse with known synaptic parameters the spike train that is optimally fitted to the synapse, for example in the sense that it produces the largest sum of postsynaptic responses. To our surprise we find that most of these optimally fitted spike trains match common firing patterns of specific types of neurons that are discussed in the literature.

The Hierachical Data Object is just another container for your data, but it's a relatively smart way to contain your data. Basically, the object can hold any data, with any kind of parent-child relationship, and each child (or it's member variables) can have attributes which are useful for handling the data contained within them. The nicest thing about the HD Object is that it uses XML for a transport -- meaning that not only can you load it from xml, but you can also get it to dump out a representation of itself in XML format.
The HD Object uses the DOMIT library to acheive this XML transport -- but only the xml-related functions are dependant on the DOMIT libraries. You can use the HD Object without the XML references if you like. But generally, you want to use the XML functionality.
I can hear you groaning from there -- why another layer on top of XML? Good point. There's nothing at all wrong with the DOMIT libraries -- in fact, they are really good. I just wanted to acheive a few goals:
My primary goal was to have a class which handled hierachical data, and which had a way of transporting that data, or communicating that data, to another entity that had no concept of the class itself (at least, not in the form you see it). Basically, I wanted a way to converse effectively and efficiently between a TCL network application and a PHP script. Both languages offer the ability to communicate over TCP/IP, and I just wanted a good transport mechanism for that. Heck, that's one of the instances for which XML was designed -- extensible data that describes itself! Isn't that a neat idea?! So I set about creating a PHP class that could store and represent the data (in XML format) and a mirror-image IncrTCL class that could do the same. The result is a working xml-based transport between a TCL socketed network application and a PHP script. Problem solved!Apart from that, I found that working with my HD Object was a little more intutitve than using the XML nodes directly. Well, at least, it is for me. If it isn't for you -- I'm sorry. But I did try to take the analogy of a dynamic PHP object, to which you can just add member variables, and extend that to an object that could hold that data and represent that data in a standardised, yet flexible format to an entity to which it is not directly affiliated. If you find the class useful and friendly, then great. If not, shake the dust from your feet and move along.
I tend to do just about all of my coding in VIM. Actually, I stick to using the graphical version (GVIM), but sometimes make short trips to the land of the console. My reasons are simple: I need a uniform development environment on win32 and linux (because I'm forced to use the first, and I love to use the second), and I needed something powerful, yet simple and, quite importantly, free. Not just free as in beer -- free as in licensing. I believe that the days of closed-source applications are over. Commercial apps can still be written: a coder has to eat and feed his wife and all that. But your clients deserve disclosure on the source, should you be abducted by aliens or something similar. Or even just so they can also hire a hacker to implement features you didn't think of. But enough of that.
Also, whilst VIM may give an initially steep learning curve, and seem to contain unnecessary keyboard work, you will find that other editors become annoying after you find the true power in vim. Also, very few other editors are as ready to adapt to the coder's wishes.
The point is that you might notice a few commented out <<<'s and corresponding >>>'s. This is not an angle-bracket fetish: it's my choice for fold markers in vim (thanks to a friend) because curly braces cause problems in Tcl (even when commented), and tend to mess up the brace-matching for languages that use braces for code blocks, since vim cannot always tell what is a code brace, and what is a fold brace. You also might notice that I tend to stick to an 80 column line. This can make some sections of deep code a little short on space, but it's something I do as a matter of style (thanks to the same friend). It makes for easier reading on a terminal, and means that the code is more easily available to anyone who has time to waste on it.
First, we have to examine some concepts that I was trying to encapsulate with the class. In the typical scenario of a class, it has properties and methods. A class that was entirely data would more than likely not have any methods to speak of, but just a lot of properties.  This is the model I worked on, and the cause of the naming that I've used for the methods of the HD Object.
First off, some rules: variables within the HD Object may not be preceeded
with a double underscore (__) -- I've reserved those kinds of names for
data internal to the HD Object, in the absence of true scoping of variables
in php4. If php4 had the ability to declare variables as private, I would have
just stuck with that, but I had to adopt a hack rather. When php5 is available
in a stable format, I will more than likely update to conform to proper
scoping. In the meantime, at least the following reserved variables should
not be overwritten unless you know what you're doing:
$__xml -- holds a string of the xml used to load the object
$__doc -- reference to the xml document object
$__root -- reference to the xml document's root element
$__name -- root element's name (you can set this)
$__mvars -- container of member variables
$__childnames -- names of the children this object has
$__attribs -- attributes on this object
$__mvarattribs -- attributs on member variables for this object
Others may be used in the future, so it would be best to just not use
member variables or children with names starting with __.
On to the good stuff -- we could have gleaned from the information above that we access member variables on the object, as we would for an object created from a class that we hand-designed ourselves. Member variables can only have one value, and this may seem like a bit of a silly thing to say, but we have to realise that an object may have more than one child with the same name, since children are kept in an array. This means we can use the HD Object to transport tabular data, eg from a sql query. Neato! But we need to have a look at usage to figure this all out...
The best way to understand this is to just take a trip through some code. Let's instantiate an hdobj:
$foo = new HDObj();
$foo->__name="MyFoo"; $foo->set_mvar("food", "burger"); $foo->set_mvar("color", "red"); $foo->set_mvar("bar", "quux"); $foo->set_mvar_attrib("bar", "order", 1);
<MyFoo> <food>burger</food> <color>red</color> <bar order="1">quux</bar> </MyFoo>
Neato. How about:
$bar = new HDObj(); $bar->__name="MyBar"; $bar->set_mvar("bar", "Mybar's bar"); $bar->set_mvar_attrib("bar", "highlight", "0"); $foo->append_child($bar);
<MyFoo> <food>burger</food> <color>red</color> <bar order="1">quux</bar> <MyBar> <bar highlight="0">MyBar's bar<bar> </MyBar> </MyFoo>
To access the child Mybar from $foo, we would simply do, eg:
print($foo->MyBar[0]->bar);
Now, of course, the real cool stuff comes from loading an hdobj with xml data and using the data directly from the object, like so:
$foo = new HDObj(" <dataset> <row rownum="0"> <id type="int">14</id> <name type="text">Bob Smith</name> <birthday type="date">1964-08-23</birthday> </row> <row rownum="1"> <id type="int">16</id> <name type="text">Ray Fincklestein</name> <birthday type="date">1964-05-15</birthday> </row> <row rownum="0"> <id type="int">82</id> <name type="text">Marie Otterburger</name> <birthday type="date">1964-09-01</birthday> </row> </dataset>");
select id, name, birthday from users where birthday > '1964-01-01' and birthday < '1965-01-01';to get a listing of all our users who were born in 1964. The nice part comes when we access that data:
print("

Name	Birthday
"); foreach ($foo->row as $row) { print("
"); print("".$foo->name."	"); print("".$foo->birthday."	"); print("
"); } print("
");
Obviously, you want to be able to set and retreive mvars, attributes and children. You've already seen how to set data, and how to retrieve member variables, but what about attributes? What about convenience functions? What else can this object do?
To get this object to dump out to XML, use the toXML() function, which can take 2 boolean arguments:
Lastly, the clear() method (surprisingly) clears the object's data. And the printout() method prints out the data in a format more like php's var_dump format. Don't try to var_dump on the object -- circular references abound due to the DOMIT usage, and you will just get a huge mess of text.

Uncertainties of geographical data can belong to basic three types (Longley et al. 2010). The first is the uncertainty of location data, also known as positional uncertainty. An example would be, not knowing the exact location of a geographic feature, a tree. The second is the uncertainty in attribute data, also known as attribute uncertainty. Attribute uncertainty can be expressed for an example, as the inexactness of the temperature for a given area. Thirdly, what is known as temporal uncertainty is the inexactness of the temporal dimension of events that occur and vary through time.
More details about uncertainty can be found here.

<uniwidth.h>
This include file declares functions that return the display width, measured in columns, of characters or strings, when output to a device that uses non-proportional fonts.
Note that for some rarely used characters the actual fonts or terminal emulators can use a different width. There is no mechanism for communicating the display width of characters across a Unix pseudo-terminal (tty). Also, there are scripts with complex rendering, like the Indic scripts. For these scripts, there is no such concept as non-proportional fonts. Therefore the results of these functions usually work fine on most scripts and on most characters but can fail to represent the actual display width.
These functions are locale dependent. The encoding argument identifies
the encoding (e.g. "ISO-8859-2"
for Polish).

EARTH (1998)
"Fear is making people do crazy things, these days."
3 out of ****
Starring Nandita Das, Maaia Sethna, Aamir Khan, Rahul Khanna; Written & Directed by Deepa Mehta, from a novel by Bapsi Sidhwa; Cinematography by Giles Nuttgens
EARTH is a harsh, unconsoling drama about the time when India gained independence from Britain and the ensuing turmoil that engulfed the subcontinent. People who supposedly loved the same land and the same God found themselves in bitter conflict, as the country divided into factions fighting in the streets: Indian and Pakistani; Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Parsee.
The story takes place in Lahore, which was Indian before Partition, and Pakistani afterward, regardless of what its citizens might call themselves. The action is seen through the eyes of Lenny (Maaia Sethna), a young Parsee girl, but it is really about her nanny, Shanta. Shanta has a small circle of male admirers. Two of the men are suitors: Hasan (Rahul Khanna), a Hindu, and Dil Navaz (Aamir Khan), a Muslim. The others--Sikh, Hindu, Muslim--are older; some are married; but all appreciate Shanta, who is played by the stirringly beautiful Nandita Das. (She also starred in Deepa Mehta's previous film, FIRE, the first part of a thematic trilogy which will conclude with WATER.)
In an early scene, the men are sitting in a park talking with Shanta and Lenny; political tension in the country is growing as the day of independence nears. One of the men remarks, jokingly, that their little group is probably one of the last places in the city where the different religions can still get along. He is wrong: the men make barbed little comments to each other, spoken like jokes, but with an undercurrent of fanaticism. The tenor of these exchanges grows darker and more bitter as the movie progresses. It is easy to perceive, in these squabbles, the trajectory which ends in mass violence and slaughter.
The group around Shanta represents, in a sense, a united India, and Shanta herself the ideal motherland--one which all love, which inspires Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh to live peacably together. But the circle around Shanta is sundered, as is the State. A Sikh is persecuted, hides, then flees. Another man is murdered. The group of friends will not meet again. The movie is rife with images of breakage and destruction: a plate shattered on the floor, a stuffed toy torn apart by an upset child, and, most brutally, when the tension escalates into violence, a man is held down, tied between two cars, and ripped in half by the opposing movement of the vehicles. It is a visceral and effective metaphor for a country which is being destroyed just as painfully.
The crux of EARTH's plot is the transformation undergone by Dil Navaz. His sisters are killed in brutal fashion, by Hindus, because they are Muslim. Dil Navaz seeks solace from Shanta, and asks in desperation that she marry him. But she loves Hasan, and tenderly refuses Dil Navaz's offer. The combination of familial anguish and romantic rejection twists inside him, and it is easy to see how he is seduced by the growing mob mentality: the Muslim cause gives him a motive to vent his anger and hate. Despite the things he later does, it is to the credit of EARTH that it does not simply denounce Dil Navaz and those like him, but shows how circumstances can make decent enough men do monstrous things.
The conclusion--the consequence of Dil Navaz's transformation--is rather abrupt. The story EARTH tells does not end. It just stops. It is an appropriate finish: giving us closure would have imparted, at least on an aesthetic level, a sense of resolution, of satisfaction. But there was no resolution for India and Pakistan--they have been at war, on a small or large scale, for decades. Since the personal dramas in EARTH mirror the political struggles of a nation, it is only right that those dramas should have no terminus. There is no healing to be had, no closure, on any level (despite the needless, tacked-on ending, with voice-over narration from Lenny as an adult, framing the story).
EARTH is, in some ways, an unexceptional movie. It does not reinvent the wheel, following instead the standard pattern of historical dramas. But Deepa Mehta's directon is assured, and the issues she addresses run deep. EARTH does for India what movies like Zhang Yimou's TO LIVE and Tian Zhuangzhuang's THE BLUE KITE did for China: they show us the agonies endured by unremarkable people who had the bad luck to be caught up and smashed in the crucible of history. Such films strike me as inherently valuable, even when flawed. They may be biased or inaccurate, but they bear the weight of human hardship, and this confers on them a nobility and gravity which other, more inventive films, often lack.
It is notable that all three movies were banned in their native countries: the events shown may have happened decades ago, but they still touch a nerve. The issues tackled in EARTH have a particular urgency in light of the nuclear test bombings that took place last year. In the near future, India and Pakistan may launch nuclear missiles at each other. At the time of the tests I had some understanding of the reasons why this might happen; after seeing EARTH, I have a much, much better understanding.

We use ID's and Classes as a way to help manipulate HTML content. We can use basic elemants like but these will not always do the job that we want. For example using
will render every paragraph with the same styling. If we would like to style a paragraph differently thats where we would use ID's and Classes. The ID is also often used in Javascript E.g. getElementById to retrieve a particular element. In the case of Css ther is nothing you can do with an ID that you can't do with a class and vice versa. Javascript on the other hand depends on there being only one page element with any particular id, or else the commonly used getElementbyId function wouldn't be dependable.
Take an iPod in a store. On the packaging will be a bar code. This tells the store what the product is, so when it is scanned, the system knows exactly what the product is and what it costs. It might even be able to know what color it is or where it was kept in the store. All iPod of this same type have the exact same bar code on them. The iPod will also have a serial number on it which is absolutely unique to any other iPod (or any other device) in the world. The serial number doesn’t know the price. It could, but for the store this wouldn’t be a very efficient way to store and use that data. Much easier to use the barcode, so that for example, if the price changed, you could just change the price for that bar code and not every individual serial number in your system. This is much like ID’s and Classes. Information that is reusable should be kept in a class and information that is totally unique should be kept in an ID.

Human beings are oppressed by their finitude, but can't bear to think about this for too long, so they attempt not to mind, or to avoid being reminded of it at all. This is achieved through the cultivation of indifference to most of reality and obsessional interest in human society. As a result, when their frustration with being finite surfaces, it is expressed as hostility towards each other, rather than hostility towards the human condition itself.
That is the portrait of human nature running through three of the most neglected philosophical works of this century: The Human Evasion, The Decline and Fall of Science, and Advice to Clever Children. I have never seen the ideas in these books engaged with, anywhere. They are not even controversial, they are simply unknown, a circumstance quite consistent with the theories of their author, Celia Green. ("The human race's favourite method for being in control of facts is to ignore them.")
One could read these books as a trilogy: the study of a state of mind called "sanity"; the elaboration of its social and intellectual consequences; and the development of an alternative. In what follows I will try to provide a sketch of the worldview found in these books, but of course many more points are made than I can reproduce here, and I may have passed over many subtleties.
Celia Green perhaps uses the word "sanity" ironically, as she is contriving to demonstrate that the prevailing outlook is in fact unrealistic; and one might have preferred to retain a use for the word close to the ostensible meaningfor example, "sanity" could have denoted "a state of mind characterized by realism of outlook". But here it refers simply to normal human psychology.
Sanity is first observed to be unmoved by certain facts which one might call corollaries of "the principle of total uncertainty". As the skeptical philosophers discovered, one cannot be certain of the veridicality of one's memories and perceptions, or of the accuracy of one's reasoning. All the regularities of past experience in themselves prove nothing about the future (Hume), and for all we know everything could cease to exist right now. The perceived world might be pure hallucination (Descartes); perhaps yours is the only consciousness.
Sanity is indifferent or hostile to such considerations, and tends to confuse "reality" with, say, "that portion of reality of which humans can conceive", or even "that portion of reality with which humans have the opportunity to interact". This confusion is held to be a side-effect, so to speak, of a general scheme of reality-evasion, put into practice for psychological reasonsto avoid confronting the frustrations of finitude, which is to say, the frustrations of having limited power and knowledge.
It is speculated that this process begins in infancy, when we all first learn that it is possible to fail in the pursuit of one's desires. The genesis of sanity lies in the desire to avoid this frustration. To fail repeatedly suggests permanent limitation, which is horrifying; so the infant begins to restrict its efforts at control to those parts of its environment which are more immediately responsive, namely other people.
In the adult human this process has led to a fixation on human beings, evident in the way that most forms of frustration recognised by adult humans have to do with one's limitations when measured against other people. People become annoyed that they're not keeping up with the Joneses, not that they cannot teleport themselves home from work.
But any sort of aspiration remains dangerous, in that it may fail to be achieved, and thus act as a reminder of one's limitations. To become truly sane one must restrict one's desires to those which one already knows how to satisfy, and replace all forms of aspiration with "compensations"which is where sadism enters the picture.
As the years pass and the frustrations of finitude mount, eventually the average human decides not to care about its limitations, having come to accept them. Thus people dislike being reminded of them, and the sane adult may even find consolation for its own finitude in the misfortunes of others, worsening the situation for them when circumstances permit.
Accepting one's limitations, however, is unrealistic, in the light of the total uncertainty; one's past inabilities at best offer material for inductive generalizations, not proofs of permanent incapacity. Equally, punishing other people for problems deriving from an impersonal cause is useless, if one is concerned with dealing with those problems. But the sane are not, according to the theory. They are solely interested in psychological remedies, not existential ones, since they believe the latter to be impossible.
Sane society has a role in the relief of the frustration of being human: it is there to keep people's minds off reality, by providing them with a set of artificial frustrations. The society of the sane is a "mechanism for preventing the fulfilment of its members", organized according to the principle of mutual restriction, in the guise of social justice; it is ensured that no one is better off than anyone else.
We thus have a double oppression: that inherent in finitude, and then that which human beings visit upon themselves; and the second is kept up because it helps distract everyone from the first.
In order to relieve the boredom of sane society, occasionally there are wars. There are never wars against death or finitude, though, only against other humans. Since the sane have decided to accept their finitude, the closest they can come to a transcendent aspiration is to imagine frustrating and injuring as many other people as possible.
It might be argued that modern times show a counterthrust, a sort of insurrection against finitude, in the form of science and technology. But this was a purely accidental development, made possible only by the decline in power of religious orthodoxy. According to Celia Green's analysis, the apex of civilization to date was achieved late in the last century; the culture "contained ideas hitherto not formulated". But in a case of cosmic agoraphobia, the European mind took refuge from the idea that the world may be illusory, from higher dimensions, from psychical phenomena, in a "social and intellectual revolution". The social revolution was intended to make it impossible for anyone to have the time and means to think about things not of interest to the collective. The intellectual revolution was intended to make it unnecessary to think about certain topics.
Thus philosophy responded to the total uncertainty by saying "Common sense knows better", and busying itself with linguistic analysis. In physics, inconceivable relations, such as those found in quantum theory, are rendered harmless by declaring that certain questions can't be answered and don't need to be answered. Phenomena which cast doubt upon the common-sense view of the reality of the external world (lucid dreams, out-of-the-body experiences) or the way in which we influence it and acquire information about it (ESP, psychokinesis) were neglected. In short, the human race is plunging itself into a new intellectual dark age, but the new orthodoxy will be, not religion, but belief in society.
There is, however, an alternative to sanity. The starting point is to ask, what would be a reaction commensurate to the total uncertainty and to one's own finiteness?
The Human Evasion suggests attitudes of urgency, self-sufficiency, single-mindedness and unconditionality, as likely character traits of the not-sane. Together these might be regarded as the attributes of centralisation, which may be defined loosely as the referring of everything to an overriding central consideration. The term is introduced in Advice to Clever Children, which is mostly about the nature of centralised psychology.
Centralisation follows from consideration of the total uncertainty. Life seems short, and indeed might end at any moment (urgency). You do not know why everything is existing, nor if anyone else is there (self-sufficiency); you do not know the importance of your position, but it could be infinitely important; the fate of the universe might hang upon it. So it is up to you to decide what to do, and to do it (single-mindedness, and unconditionality).
One could view centralised psychology as a developmental stagewhich most people never reach. Ordinary human psychology is not prepared to accept the responsibility associated with a position in which it must make ultimately important decisions, and so it does not perceive that it is in such a position.
Another way of stating the whole thing is to say that it involves feeling responsible for doing the best possible thing with one's life. Centralised states thus tend to be highly purposeful, and carry an optimistic expectation of incalculable possibilities that may be realised. After all, one of the implications of the total uncertainty is that these apparent limitations may not be permanent after all.
So who is Celia Green? She is Director of the Institute for Psychophysical Research in Oxford, which she set up in the late sixties. Alongside her philosophical works, she has written or co-authored three books documenting some of the Institute's research - Lucid Dreams, Out-of-the-Body Experiences, and Apparitions, this last coauthored with Charles McCreery. As may be apparent, the Institute is interested in the investigation of a number of topics hardly examined by modern science. Much more about the phenomena in question can be found in The Decline and Fall of Science.
I have spoken with Celia Green twice, first in May 1992 in Oxford, and again by phone in October 1993. My impression is that their research program has been at a standstill for years owing to lack of funds. If they had the money, they would equip themselves with an electrophysiological laboratory and investigate the phenomena properly. On the second occasion, I asked what they were hoping to do in the near future, and was told, "We're hoping to do some research before we die."


Where it all began. A lively kid who grew up in the mountains with a love for skiing and the outdoors. Raised by two entrepreneurs I quickly learned to analyze everything I saw. From a young age my desire to solve any problem I could find was innate and I loved it.
Junior year of high school, I moved from Utah to one of the last small beach towns in Southern California. The entire community revolved their schedule around tides and swells. Here, I fell in love with surfing and the design aesthetic that came with it. Moving to California taught me that solving a problem is good however, solving it with style is even better.
Attending San Diego State University as a Marketing B.S. major, wanted to learn every hard skill that had to do with marketing and product design. Working at Chatmeter and Cloudvirga really helped me with this. I also had the opportunity to study at the Paris School of Business and was able to get a certification in luxury brand management.
I am currently finishing my last semester at San Diego State University, applying my knowledge to help small businesses through the SDSU Small Business Consulting program. I balance this with being able to surf all the time and enjoying the perfect Ocean Beach weather.
I became an SaaS Platform expert in my previous roles at Chatmeter and Cloudvirga. I am able to quickly understand product differentiation and how to create product value. I know all the tips and tricks to ensure each product has incredible online visibility. I also understand the proper mix of SEO to SEM and I always value time and money in relation to the product.
Creation and innovation. I want to stretch the boundaries of product display and design visually appealing content. With years of practice and curiosity, I taught myself every app in Adobe Creative Suite. However, I wanted to further my skills in order to drive the conversation. I took a semester off from college and learned how to code in HTML and CSS. I even built this website using Bootstrap! These programs allow me to spark the important conversation points between the designers and the developers.
Undoubtedly, my greatest skill is connecting with everyone I meet. Community and communication are essential in creating an amazing product. I’ve always known, work becomes play when surrounded by like-minded employees.


Select control can display in either drop-down mode, or multi-line mode. When a list is too long, it becomes scrollable. When a user comes to the end of the list, rather than having to scroll back up, the list will automatically wrap around and show the list from the beginning. This can reduce the amount of panning gestures needed to get to an item.


This is NOT "smart" because the joke is witty...
The joke doesn't even make sense! What IS kinda smart is how some entry data is manipulated to permit inane entries while attempting to preserve grammatical integrity
submit input boxes
get prompts


#include <stdlib.h> int mkstemp(char *template); int mkostemp(char *template, int flags); int mkstemps(char *template, int suffixlen); int mkostemps(char *template, int suffixlen, int flags);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
mkstemp():

_GNU_SOURCE
mkstemps():
_BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
mkostemps():
_GNU_SOURCE
The last six characters of template must be "XXXXXX" and these are replaced with a string that makes the filename unique. Since it will be modified, template must not be a string constant, but should be declared as a character array.
The file is created with permissions 0600, that is, read plus write for owner only. The returned file descriptor provides both read and write access to the file. The file is opened with the open(2) O_EXCL flag, guaranteeing that the caller is the process that creates the file.
The mkostemp() function is like mkstemp(), with the difference that the following bits---with the same meaning as for open(2)---may be specified in flags: O_APPEND, O_CLOEXEC, and O_SYNC. Note that when creating the file, mkostemp() includes the values O_RDWR, O_CREAT, and O_EXCL in the flags argument given to open(2); including these values in the flags argument given to mkostemp() is unnecessary, and produces errors on some systems.
The mkstemps() function is like mkstemp(), except that the string in template contains a suffix of suffixlen characters. Thus, template is of the form prefixXXXXXXsuffix, and the string XXXXXX is modified as for mkstemp().
The mkostemps() function is to mkstemps() as mkostemp() is to mkstemp().
For mkstemps() and mkostemps(): template is less than (6 + suffixlen) characters long, or the last 6 characters before the suffix in template were not XXXXXX.
These functions may also fail with any of the errors described for open(2).
mkstemps(): unstandardized, but appears on several other systems.
mkostemp() and mkostemps(): are glibc extensions.
More generally, the POSIX specification of mkstemp() does not say anything about file modes, so the application should make sure its file mode creation mask (see umask(2)) is set appropriately before calling mkstemp() (and mkostemp()).
