Mobile 2.0: Panel Discussion on openness
Moderator: Matthaus Krzykowski, VentureBeat
David Wood, Symbian
Jacob Lehrbaum, Sun
Andreas Constantinou, VisionMobile
Pat Phelan, Cubic Telecom
Christian Sejersen, Mozilla
MK: What is openness to you at 8am on a Monday?
AC: There was a big splash around openness 2008/2007 when Android came along.
DW: It's a culture change, around getting trust from the community.
CS: Most communication takes place in the open - wiki, newsgroups and IRC.
PP: As a semi-MNO we've had to go in and build APIs. Carriers are quite closed in general.
JL: I came from a hardware background (where open was about systems), then into software (which had its own definition), then mobile, where open means "you can install an application on your phone".
AC: We have open application SDKs, communities. Android is open source, but can you influence its development. Governance models cover everything a source code license doesn't: can I influence the source code, who arbitrates between contributions, can I get nightly builds.
DW: Is Open just marketing? No, we're in the middle of a 2-year project to open the Symbian source - we wouldn't do this for marketing brownie points. There are companies that have done a good job with a tightly controlled stack, but over time we think that open standards win out. Look at Firefox, it's not downloaded because it's open source, but because it's a good product.
...
JL: There's a balance between giving people to ability to change anything they like, and keeping compatibility (particularly across devices).
PP: 50% openness is like being half pregnant
DW: Alongside any drive to openness is a drive to ensure the system isn't corrupted from within.
Q: I own mean. How do I get access to systems which have been closed for a long time?
DW: Symbian will open two new websites for participation from customers: not just developers, but gadget enthusiasts too, requesting features. And we want to lower the barrier for easier programming: Python, Flash.
Q: Isn't an open platform one that doesn't charge $1500 to get source access (Symbian)?
DW: It will be free ASAP, by June next year or maybe sooner. We can't open it up immediately because it currently contains entangled 3rd party software code.
Q: What do you think of operator-owned app stores? Are they not a walled garden?
JL: Many to date have been closed. If you're selling something you need to take responsibility for its quality - even if it's free. So there's a level of closedness you need as a vendor.
CS: There has to be a check in the app store for it to have credibility.
DW: OSS needs some help to avoid the problems Christian has highlighted - avoiding fragmentation.
Q: 10 years later we need to talk about openness and making money. Where have we gone wrong.
CS: We don't charge for products, we do rev share on search partnerships.
Q: How can open be safe?
AC: It's not about safety, it's about blame. Who pays the bill for fixing it? With Java, you ask the user to take on liability for installation by asking them regularly.
CS: Open source is one of the best vehicles for making secure products - it rules out security by obscurity.
Q: Who pays for the cost of policing the apps ecosystem?
JL: Carriers often feel responsible because they own the customer relationship. Anyone who the consumer feels they have a relationship with has to take on some of the responsibility.
PP: Apple have a competitive pricing model, and that includes the cost of their organisation to police it.

This research project was conducted under my supervision at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), My students worked on this project under my guidlines and mentoring are: Lilian Ngweta, Karan Bhanot, Ariane Maharaj, Ian Bogle . This research project was a part of the Data Science course that I taught during Fall 2019 at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
Outcome of this project was published as a conference paper in IEEE BigData Conference ( IEEE BigData) in December, 2019 in Los Angeles, USA.
Dengue, Malaria and Zika are vector-borne diseases caused by mosquitoes that carry the parasites that lead to illnesses. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) hundreds of thousands of people around the world die every year due to disease-transmitting mosquitoes. Mosquito outbreaks occur most commonly in warm climates, in areas close to the equator and tropical regions. Female mosquitoes lay their eggs in the ponds and puddles where water accumulates due to rainfall. In 2016, there was a significant spike in the number of dengue cases in Argentina; there were 79,455 cases of dengue reported in 2016 compared to 3250 cases in 2014 and 4774 in 2015 and went back down to the hundreds in 2017 and rose to thousands again in 2018. Since Dengue and Zika are spread by the same species of mosquito, Aedes aegypti, the goal of this project is to examine whether the spike in dengue cases in 2016 in Argentina also led to a spike in Zika cases. During this study we will determine if there is a correlation between the number of Zika cases and rainfall precipitation levels. For the analysis, we use available Zika data for Argentina obtained from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) database. More specifically, we are looking at the number of cases per month at a county level in Argentina. The precipitation data is obtained from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) through the Global Precipitation Measurement Mission (GPM). Just like the Zika data, precipitation data is also on a monthly basis and data is available at a county level. There are existing systems for forecasting the outbreak of vector-borne diseases in various countries and each system looks at a particular factor. For example, the Dengue forecasting MOdel Satellite-based System (D-MOSS) is a system that issues warnings of dengue outbreaks eight months before outbreaks are likely to occur in Vietnam. Another existing early warning system is the Predictive fLUshing Mosquito (PLUM) model. PLUM was developed by Draper Scientists in collaboration with scientists from Boston University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to help predict and decrease outbreaks of dengue fever using observations collected in Singapore, Peru, and Puerto Rico. Our work is inspired by D-MOSS, but instead of including water availability as a component in the prediction and focusing on Vietnam, we are interested in finding out the relationship between Zika outbreaks and precipitation levels in Argentina. The Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations aim to address global problems of peace, justice, gender equality, good health and many others. Similar to how D-MOSS targets these UN Sustainability goals, our project aspires to bring a similar approach when dealing with the Zika Virus. We will produce a report of our analysis results and visualizations that can be used by beneficiaries in Argentina to help in the efforts of combating and controlling the spread of Zika virus. .
Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Mission of NASA aims to collect reliable rainfall and snow (precipitation) information, recorded every three hours and combined together. The recorded data is made freely available in HDF5 format. We subset the data using a bounding box around Argentina and collect the final run data from January, 2016 to December, 2017. A total of 24 data files were collected, each corresponding to a specific month and year.
The Zika data is compiled from integrated surveillance bulletins from Argentina’s Ministry of Health. The data was provided in CSV file format for each bulletin, which were issued irregularly throughout a month and included the number of Zika cases in each province since the last bulletin. Since our precipitation data was grouped by month, we used a python script to aggregate the Zika data into a monthly granularity.
The project workflow as shown in Figure 1, project starts with obtaining the data from the sources, cleaning the data, and storing the data on a local repository. We then plan to perform analysis by creating models and visualizations that will help us determine whether the increase in Dengue cases in 2016 also led to the increase in Zika cases and help us determine the correlation between the number of Zika cases and precipitation levels. We will produce a final report that will include our analysis results and visualizations. Then as a final step, we will archive the project on GitHub.
From Figure 2 shown below, it is seen that the highest precipitation levels occur in the upper north-eastern region of Argentina where as the rest of the country had relatively low rates of precipitation. However, this region does not correspond with the highest numbers of Zika cases, which is seen in the north-western region of Argentina as well as on central eastern border of the country.
Figure 3 shown below shows a spread of comparatively higher precipitation levels across the middle of Argentina which fades towards the eastern and western regions of the country, with the western region having the lowest amounts of precipitation. The number of Zika cases are relatively low and only exist in a few provinces. Comparing Figures 2 and 3 the amount of precipitation is lower for March 2016 than March 2017 but there are a larger number of Zika cases for March 2016 than 2017 and they are spread throughout the entire country where as for March 2017 the cases are sparsely spread across the northern and eastern parts of the country.
Delving further into the relationship between the number of Zika cases and the trends in rainfall precipitation levels and other climatic factors, as well social and economic factors, valuable insights can be gained and used for prevention planning. It will also provide context as to how climate change can affect mosquito breeding trends and thus vector-borne diseases. A direct correlation between the average rainfall spread and the Zika cases of the same month do not align well with one another but a delayed correlation has high probability due to the nature of Zika spread.


Placements are one of the most important part of any student’s stay at IIT Kharagpur. The spring semester before the final year for students should be used to guide students in the methods of preparation as it will provide a much needed base for students going into the next semester. Moreover, students have to attend PPTs, apply for companies and give placement tests in the autumn semester. Thus, they will be able to prepare in a better manner if they already have a strong base and know what they will be facing. This will also prevent last minute hassle and tension regarding preparation as well as anticipation and logistics issues as students will now be more assured about the whole process thus ensuring efficiency and a more confident state of mind. Prof. Debasis Deb, Chairman, Career Development Centre, also said that students will benefit in placements immensely if a dedicated method for preparation is developed.
A Career Conclave will be organized under the aegis of the Career Development Centre. I plan to organize preparatory seminars under the aegis of Career Development Centre where the students sitting for placements will be told of the intricacies of preparing for interviews of the various sectors including consultancy, finance, core, startups, analytics, research etc. Talks shall be delivered by alumni/professionals/students concerned with the respective sectors.
This step consists of a drive in which seven different areas will be covered. Each day will consist of workshops/webinars conducted by reputed alumni/professionals/students in the respective sectors. This program is open for pre-final year students. The sectors are as follows:
In this conclave, Alumni/ professionals/ students shall deliver the talk through interactive sessions/webinars. The sectors Finance , consulting, analytics, coding and teaching will have alumni/professionals/students coming down to Kharagpur to have face to face interaction sessions since, these domains are not part of regular curriculum. Core and research Sector will consist of webinars organized individually with respect to the departments with two different tracks: UG, PG & RS Each webinars will have half an hour lecture or introductory session followed by a one hour Q & A sessions. The questions for the same will be collected prior to the webinar, filtered by the CDC team and sent to the speaking alum.
Senior Year Buddy (SYB): SYB is a final year student who is placed and still in campus. This facilitates proper interaction between the buddy and the student. The placement process of students culminates with him filling a feedback form. His/her interest in buddy program would be known through this form. Feedback/interest from the students who attended the drive will be matched with the feedback received after the placement process. After profile matching, the buddy is allocated. Each student is asked to select two sectors on priority and the allocation will be done by the Career Development Centre. If the number of students is more than the capacity with respect to number of buddies then a rotational program is employed in which the students are divided into batches and interaction happens in different weeks/months. Each buddy will mentor a maximum of 4 - 5 students so as to ensure that proper attention is provided to the students and that the rotational program can be avoided.
Experienced Postgraduate and Research Scholar students would also be approached to mentor the students and provide their valuable input for career choices in research and aligned areas. This will provide a further opportunity for the students of IIT Kharagpur to learn from each other and appreciate each other’s expertise.
The mentorship period starts from mid-March and as we know the CV submission of the companies start from the month of August/September. This provides a six month mentorship period before the placement process. During the mentorship period, the buddy is encouraged to share his experience with the student and provide him concrete information like sharing reference materials, case practices etc. Mentorship continues till the end of placement season.
The Career Conclave will start in the spring semester for people who will be sitting for placements in the next semester. In that semester, people who have already been placed will conduct these workshops where the methods used by them in preparing for interviews of various companies and the pattern of interviews will be explained. These workshops will also include group discussion and personal interview sessions. There would also be sessions on CV Building, Communication and basic aptitude development. A survey of placed students conducted by CDC showed that a majority of students felt that problem solving and communication skills were their major strengths.
Such an initiative where students will use their experiences to help students who will be sitting for placements next semester will ensure that they will be well prepared. By the autumn semester, the students sitting for placements will have a broad idea as to what to expect in placement interviews and tests. They can gain a first-hand insight into what is the requirement and expectation of each sector through the workshops and webinars conducted by our Alumni and the officials from different companies.
This is a model that is successfully deployed by IIM Calcutta to aid their students in preparing for placements, and various IIM Calcutta students have commented that this is one of the most useful method for preparation as it is very comprehensive.
Moreover, KGP has always relied on the culture of seniors helping out juniors. Thus, we should further this culture so that the entire KGP community benefits from it, and students are fully prepared to face and overcome one of the most important challenges of their student life.
The research that happens at IIT Kharagpur is an important parameter which affects many criteria in World University Rankings. In the past few years, IIT Kharagpur has increased the emphasis on research and has aimed to become a top 20 university in the world in the engineering and technology criteria. One important facet of emphasis on research is to encourage students to come up with their own ideas and innovate. Students need to be given a platform to work on their own research ideas and come up with solutions to the various problems present. Once students are given encouragement to pursue their own ideas, a culture of research will be inculcated in IIT Kharagpur among the undergraduate students which will highly benefit the students as well as IIT Kharagpur in the long run. Thus it is very important for the institute to inculcate a culture of research where students’ get to take up projects on their own research ideas.
In the India Rankings 2016 released, IIT Kharagpur was ranked 3rd in the Engineering sector. Director, IIT Kharagpur was very happy with the result but he also said IIT Kharagpur must make more effective use of its large student strength at all levels as an asset for growing up the research quality output. To increase the culture of research among undergraduates, I propose the setting up of ‘Undergraduate Research Platform’.
To encourage Research & Development activities amongst the students, proposals will be invited every year in the month of August from the Undergraduate Students of IIT Kharagpur. The guiding spirit behind this initiative is to encourage students to think and innovate. The students should take initiative in identifying, studying and analyzing problems as well as formulating solutions. Under this scheme, students are required to submit the project proposal in association with identified faculty of the Department/Centre to act as an administrative facilitator and a guide. Proposal may be submitted by a student alone or by maximum of two students.
If the project is completed, the students will be issued certification from the institute which will be beneficial to the students if they want to apply for research internships abroad and for further studies. So, this initiative is not only beneficial for furthering the pride of this institute, but will also help encourage and inculcate a spirit of research among the students and will also provide concrete benefits.
An online portal will be created where students can see the updates related to URP. Also, all the students can see the work done so far under the initiative of URP. Also, this portal will list the sponsored projects going on in the institute. Thus, the visibility of these projects will also increase. This portal will also list all the sponsored research projects on campus to increase the visibility of the projects happening among the student community.
All the proposals will be submitted by the end of September. The facilitator will give the marks to each of the reports and the top few as decided by the maximum cap will be selected based on the following criteria :
Innovativeness – 20 marks
Impact – 20 marks
Feasibility – 20 marks
Facilitators will submit a report which will recommend whether the student should be awarded the certification based on the completed report submitted by the students and the work done by them.
Training of mess workers by professional chefs to deal with the problem of poor quality of cooking, and getting a dietician to set up a broad guideline for the mess menu so that a healthy and nutritious mess menu can be chosen by the students. Poor mess food is a major issue faced by all students of IIT Kharagpur. In my interaction with various students, many students have complained that the mess food is not properly cooked. In addition to that as the menu is not decided by a dietician, there is risk of students consuming an imbalanced diet is high. The mess problem is a problem faced by everyone and it affects them directly.
I propose that chefs should be called to train the mess workers so that the method of cooking is refined. They can also check the equipment that is being used and judge whether they are appropriate for a mess which serves the students of IIT Kharagpur. As the quality of cooking is a constant complaint of the student, such a move will ensure that a step has been taken to train the workers. This will mean that the mess workers are now more in touch with what students expect from the mess and appropriate steps are taken to ensure what the correct method of cooking a certain type of food is.
The presence of a dietician is necessary to decide a basic composition of a healthy diet for a student. Often what the students decide is not a healthy balance of all the nutrients which can be detrimental later on in life, as students eat in the mess for a major proportion of the meals that they have in IIT Kharagpur. Since it is the job of the mess to provide the students good and healthy food, a proper diet plan must be set in place. This plan will not be exact, but will have broad guidelines as to which food items should be present in a necessary balanced meal, and students can now choose among those options for a meal instead of choosing from all the items that are available to them. Having a dietician setting up a broad guideline will ensure that such a healthy combination of food items in a menu is present. Thus, having training for mess workers will ensure that the poor quality of cooking is handled, and getting a dietician to set broad guidelines for the menu will ensure that students choose a healthy and nutritious composition for their mess menu.
In today’s age, it has become extremely important for any organization to completely move to an IT enabled administrative infrastructure to reduce the paper trail and increase accountability. Recently, even the Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi recognized the importance of digitization by launching the ‘Digital India’ initiative to improve the online infrastructure to make services available to each and every citizen of the country. In the report commission by the institute to KPMG to suggest reforms for the institute to realize the goals of ‘Vision 2020’, it was stated that having a completely IT enabled administrative infrastructure is the key to reduce bureaucratic delays and a major step forward for any campus in reducing the paper trail and ‘Going Green’. Such an infrastructure is already present in top colleges of the world like Harvard and Yale. In cases of hospitals, it has been seen in the recent past that all major hospitals are moving to digital method of record keeping for patient profile so that the entire case history of patient is instantly available. In countries like USA, medical records are constantly analysed to detect the outbreak of any disease.
A major issue that the institute faces is that proper medical history of a student is not maintained. Often students do not use the assigned medical book and use the emergency slips. In this case the record of the medical history may not be maintained in the medical book of the student, and BC Roy only notes it down in registers. In case of an emergency, this will result in delays for searching the required record which may prove to be fatal. There is a need to keep a complete medical history for getting knowledge of previous medicine subscriptions as well. Moreover, due to lack of any means to quickly analyse data, timely alerts regarding the spread of contagious diseases cannot be issued. On speaking with Prof Chhanda Chakraborti, Chairman of BC Roy Technology Hospital and Dr. Seema Roy, Senior Medical Officer (Administration), BC Roy Technology Hospital, they also agreed that maintaining a patient profile is extremely necessary.
Currently, for submission of forms for issues like guest house booking, swimming pool slots, gym slots, bona fide certificate, elective change, no dues certificate, application for grade card and various other facilities available to students, signatures of a various authority figures are required. This is often a long winding and inconvenient process, which takes up the students’ time unnecessarily. As most authority figures are available only during office hours of 9 am to 5 pm, often students are unable to quickly get the bureaucratic work done as they have classes during that time. As of now, the records for issuing of bonafide certificates, grade cards and other official documents are maintained in registers. This leads to the admin office maintaining large amounts of paper copies. This is highly inconvenient when a specific record needs to be searched. For an institute like ours, which aims to be in the top 20 universities of the world by 2030, all administrative work should be maintained digitally for better record keeping and convenience. This is also a major direction in which an institute can reduce the paper consumption and move to a greener model.
I propose that the process of obtaining the signatures of various authority figures be ported to the digital medium, where the request for permission is sent to every concerned authority and they are notified of the same. This reduces the inconvenience of students, and also makes it easier for record keeping purposes as the data from the filled form can be automatically recorded once the concerned authorities approve the application digitally.
For example, in the case of a bona fide certificate, the student can submit a request to his faculty advisor, who may review and approve it and forward it to the Head of Department of the student who will approve it and send it to the academic section. On receiving an approved application, the academic section can provide the bona fide certificate to the student.
A similar request can be initiated for booking a room in the guest house. In addition to that, students will be able to see the availability of rooms on the internet itself for the dates they want to book the rooms, and based on that they can book the rooms.
By introducing record keeping on computers in BC Roy Hospital, a complete medical history of the student can be maintained easily. Thus, a complete patient profile which will have records of previous visits and subscriptions will be instantly available. Also, since this record will be kept on computers, it will much easier to sort and analyse the data, through which it can be found out which doctors are the most in demand and at which time slots is the hospital the busiest. In that manner, steps can be taken to call in these doctors for more visits and allocate resources in the hospital in a better manner. This was a major concern of the students as stated in a survey by Awaaz, and this step will help in solving that problem. Apart from that, timely alerts for contagious disease can be issued if any such pattern is available in the data that is being recorded.
Yearlong activities on campus by different societies to increase the opportunities available to students to explore their areas of interest.
Currently, people who are not a part of any of the societies on campus, or even if they are a part of a few societies on campus, they are unable to explore other avenues of their interest. Often they also miss out as most societies conduct selection right at the beginning of the year, where the student is unable to decide what he wants to take. Even though the General Championship provides a student a platform to do this, it is often not possible for every person to take part in different events and learn from it. Students also miss out on a chance to interact regularly batchmates and seniors on a regular basis in a relaxed environment.
I propose that the different societies under the Gymkhana conduct workshops for the students on campus so that students can explore their interests and gain more exposure. I have spoken to the Governors of different societies, and most of them are willing to this for the betterment of the student population on campus. A structured timeline will be drawn up once I meet with all the Governors next session based on their other commitments like the introductory workshop and any other outstation commitments. Once the timeline is decided by the in meeting with the Governors, it will be released via the Gymkhana website and the Gymkhana page so that students are aware of it from the beginning and the attendance level does not drop. Room and AV Cell bookings will be provided by the Gymkhana for these workshops. Benefits
Conducting such workshops will ensure that wholesome development of students takes place and students who are not a part of different societies do not feel left out in terms of making full use of the various activities that IIT Kharagpur can offer. This is also beneficial to societies as they can spot talent that may have been missed out during fresher selections. Students will also get a chance to interact with seniors who have different skillsets. Since workshops will be conducted throughout the year, more students will come in contact with different people and this will prove beneficial to them when the time comes when they have to ask for advice regarding internships/placements.
Under this proposal, the different activities that can be conducted are:
B-Club: B-Club conducts knowledge sessions based on different topics and follows it up with an activity like a case study, or data interpretation. This will keep the students aware of what is happening around them and also give them some basic knowledge regarding case studies and data interpretation which can turn out to be useful in the future.
TDS: Open to all workshops will be conducted on select weekends. This way students who are not a part of TDS, but are still interested in learning how to dance can do so. TDS will also conduct a workshop before the Amateur Junior Championship that it conducts so that people can learn a few basics and also take part in the competition.
Dramatics: Like the workshop that was conducted this year, similar workshop will be conducted in a combined manner by all the dramatics societies. Since it will be incorporated in central timeline it will ensure that clashes with a few events are avoided and the workshop can be conducted in a better and more structured manner.
Music: ETMS and WTMS can conduct open sessions where each session will be dedicated to a particular specialty, like vocals or a particular instrument.
Spectra: Workshops on different art forms and photoshop will be conducted.


A matrix is a type of wizard. The Glossary tool provides context and definitions for the criteria and levels in a matrix.
A matrix is a type of wizard that provides structure and guidance for any learning process that can be organized into two dimensions - rows and columns. Matrices track progress across criteria, milestones, or standards (the rows) in relation to different activities or levels (the columns).
Matrices allow site participants to provide evidence of learning or other achievements in criteria, standards, or skills according to different levels of ability or areas of activity. They can be used to document learning or achievements in many areas - general education, co-curricular development, program requirements, course activities, graduation standards, faculty promotion and tenure, and more.
Within a matrix, the intersection of each row and column forms a cell. The cell's content provides a means of tracking achievement, encouraging reflection on the learning experience, and providing feedback and evaluation.
Each cell presents participants with instructions, samples, and forms to be completed, along with informational files, URLs, and/or other materials. Participants complete the forms that are presented and provide evidence from Resources to document their learning or achievement in relation to the criterion and level for this cell. Participants also reflect upon that evidence according to prompts provided in the cell.
Site organizers guide participants through the activities for each cell. To provide this guidance, they supply instructions, rationale, and examples in the cell. They may also include forms that structure participant evidence of learning or achievement. Additionally, they provide forms that prompt participants to reflect upon their evidence, forms in which designated reviewers provide feedback on participant progress, and forms in which designated evaluators offer their evaluation of the work after a participant submits the cell. Finally, site organizers may also determine the order in which participants complete the cells.
As a site organizer, you can create portfolio templates to display the content of a completed matrix or a matrix in process. Through these templates, you can allow site participants to transform their matrices into portfolios.
If you are a system administrator or a site organizer, you can use the Matrices tool to perform the following activities.

This past Mother's Day, we shared
#LoveLetters
, a partnership among nonprofits to give the children of incarcerated parents a chance to have their voices heard. Today, in celebration of Fathers Day, you can watch Love Letters for incarcerated fathers. This work is part of our continued commitment to
raising awareness about racial injustice
, and to
bearing witness
to the human costs of mass incarceration.
The costs of mass incarceration have disproportionately affected the lives of Black men. From 1980 to 2007, about
one in three
of the 25.4 million adults arrested for drugs was African-American. And if that current trend continues, one in three Black boys born today can expect to spend time in prison during his lifetime. All in all, were now at a point where there are
more African-American men incarcerated
in the U.S. than the total prison populations of India, Argentina, Canada, Lebanon, Germany, Finland, Israel and England combined.
Children share digital Love Letters for their fathers who are incarcerated
Many of these men are also fathersand their children have suffered greatly. The loss of a father to incarceration
adversely
affects childrens educational, social and emotional well-being, even decades later.
Children with an incarcerated parent
are three times more likely to have behavioral problems or depression, and at least twice as likely to suffer from learning disabilities, ADD/ADHD, and anxiety.
This is what Love Letters conveys: the hurt of the children left behindand the enduring bond between a child and a parent despite the barrier of prison walls. So for Father's Day, we worked with the NGOs
Pops the Club
and
Place4Grace
to encourage children and youth in California to share their love letters to their fathers behind bars. We're also working with the California Department of Corrections to share the video with fathers behind bars throughout the state.
To learn about criminal justice reform legislation now going through Congress, visit

. As David Drummond, Alphabets vice president of corporate development, said at an event this week: We like disruption, and if theres a system worth disrupting, its the criminal justice system. We hope that by raising awareness about the impact of mass incarceration on children and families, we can help to change it. Please join us in this effortwatch the video and share with #LoveLetters on social media.

{% block main %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %}The first step is to determine which type of
cluster you want to run. You may have several choices
available depending on the configuration of your system.
Click on "choose plugin" to bring up the list of data
processing plugins. There you will be able to choose the
data processing plugin along with the version number.
Choosing this up front will allow the rest of the cluster
creation steps to focus only on options that are pertinent
to your desired cluster type.{% endblocktrans %}
{% trans "Current choice:" %}
{% if request.session.plugin_name and request.session.plugin_version %}
{% trans "Plugin:" %}
{{ request.session.plugin_name }}
{% trans "Version:" %}
{{ request.session.plugin_version }}
{% else %}
{% trans "No plugin chosen" %}
{% endif %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %}You need to register an image to launch instances
of your cluster. Skip this step if you already have a registered image
for your plugin, otherwise click the link below. In the form you will
need to choose the image, input the username and add tags for the chosen plugin.
{% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %}Next, you need to define the different
types of machines in your cluster. This is done by
defining a Node Group Template for each type of
machine. A very common case is where you
need to have one or more machines running a "master"
set of processes while another set of machines need
to be running the "worker" processes. Here,
you will define the Node Group Template for your
"master" node(s).
{% endblocktrans %}
{% trans "Current choice:" %}
{% if request.session.master_name %}
{% trans "Master Node Group Template:" %}
{{ request.session.master_name }}
{% else %}
{% trans "No Master Node Group Template Created" %}

{% blocktrans trimmed %}Repeat the Node Group Template
creation process, but this time you are creating
your "worker" Node Group Template.{% endblocktrans %}
{% trans "Current choice:" %}
{% if request.session.worker_name %}
{% trans "Worker Node Group Template:" %}
{{ request.session.worker_name }}
{% else %}
{% trans "No Worker Node Group Template Created" %}
{% endif %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %}Now you need to set the layout of your
cluster. By
creating a Cluster Template, you will be choosing the
number of instances of each Node Group Template that
will appear in your cluster. Additionally,
you will have a chance to set any cluster-specific
configuration items in the additional tabs on the
create Cluster Template form.{% endblocktrans %}
{% trans "Current choice:" %}
{% if request.session.guide_cluster_template_name %}
{% trans "Worker Node Group Template:" %}
{{ request.session.guide_cluster_template_name }}
{% else %}
{% trans "No Cluster Template Created" %}
{% endif %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %}You are now ready to
launch your cluster. When you click on the link
below, you will need to give your cluster a name,
choose the Cluster Template to use and choose which
image to use to build your instances. After you
click on "Create", your instances will begin to
spawn. Your cluster should be operational in a few
minutes.{% endblocktrans %}

Croupier.JS: an HTTP Brokerless Bus Croupier is a small daemon (or client library, TBD) that easily adds fault-tolerance, horizontal scalability to your current HTTP backend-to-backend interactions.
Croupier works with topics. A topic for croupier is just a tag that names the service or type of servers, for example: client-api, logging, … When a server starts, it uses croupier-provider module to register itself as a provider of a topic on a host and a port. Croupier receives the notification of the provider and keeps a registry of servers per topic. A client wants to send an HTTP request to one of the servers; it sends the request to croupier and adds an HTTP-header with the topic: “croupier-topic”: “client-api” Croupier delivers the request to one of the servers providing that topic.
var http = require('http'),
httpProxy = require('http-proxy'),
dgram = require('dgram'),
debug = require('debug')('croupier');
node croupier.js [host] [port]
host : Server to use, <IP_ADDRESS> by default.
port : Port to use for HTTP requests, 8000 by default.
var host = null;
var port = null;
function _processArguments(argv){
if (argv[0] === '-h'){
console.log('Usage: node croupier.js [host] [port]');
console.log('host : Server to use, <IP_ADDRESS> by default.');
console.log('port : Port to use for HTTP requests, 8000 by default.');
}
host = argv[0] || '<IP_ADDRESS>';
port = argv[1] || '8000';
}
Croupier enabled HTTP servers send status updates so that croupier can register them. Status updates are received via UDP-multicast: port 3000 multicast address: <IP_ADDRESS>. This allows very little network overhead and easy discovery. Since croupier is meant to backend-to-backend escenarios there should not be problems on communications infrastructure due to using UDP. Producer status updates include the topic, host, port and the number of requests served.
var croupierSocket = dgram.createSocket("udp4");
function _croupierOnMessage(msg, rinfo) {
debug("croupierSocket got: " + msg + " from " + rinfo.address + ":" + rinfo.port);
msg = JSON.parse(msg);
if ('producerStatus' === msg.type){
if (servers[msg.topic] === undefined){
servers[msg.topic] = {};
}
servers[msg.topic][msg.host+':'+msg.port] = msg;
debug('Received new servers update : ', msg);
}
}
function _croupierOnListening () {
var address = croupierSocket.address();
debug("croupierSocket listening " + address.address + ":" + address.port);
}
Pick a random server for the topic and returns an address object: {host: host, port: port}
function _getAddress(topic){
var res;
var address = null;
var count = 0;
if (servers[topic]){
for (var server_info in servers[topic])
count += 1;
if (Math.random() < 1/count){
res = servers[topic][server_info];
}

} else {
console.log('>> bad server... returning default', address)
}
} else {
console.log(">> Not found servers for topic: ", topic);

return address;

servers object stores the servers addresses and status by topic:
{
topic1: {
host_a:port1: {topic: topic1, host: host_a, port: port1, requests: number_requests},
host_b:port2: {topic: topic1, host: host_b, port: port2, requests: number_requests},
(...)},
topic2: {

var proxy = httpProxy.createProxyServer({});
function _returnHTTPError(res, code, reason){

1 This king, too, left a pyramid, but far smaller than his father's, each side twenty feet short of three hundred feet long, square at the base, and as much as half its height of Ethiopian stone. Some Greeks say that it was built by Rhodopis, the courtesan, but they are wrong;
2 indeed, it is clear to me that they say this without even knowing who Rhodopis was (otherwise, they would never have credited her with the building of a pyramid on which what I may call an uncountable sum of money was spent), or that Rhodopis flourished in the reign of Amasis, not of Mycerinus;
3 for very many years later than these kings who left the pyramids came Rhodopis, who was Thracian by birth, and a slave of Iadmon son of Hephaestopolis the Samian, and a fellow-slave of Aesop the story-writer. For he was owned by Iadmon, too, as the following made crystal clear:
4 when the Delphians, obeying an oracle, issued many proclamations summoning anyone who wanted it to accept compensation for the killing of Aesop, no one accepted it except the son of Iadmon's son, another Iadmon; hence Aesop, too, was Iadmon's.


THE MAN WHO HAUNTED HIMSELF [Spoilers] A film review by Chuck Dowling Copyright 1997 Chuck Dowling
The Man Who Haunted Himself (1970) *1/2 out of ***** - C: Roger Moore.
A conservative British businessman (Moore) while driving home from work suddenly starts to drive recklessly and moments later crashes his car in a near fatal accident. While in the emergency room, he dies, but then is quickly brought back to life. After he becomes well again, he returns to his normal life. However, he slowly starts to discover that he sometimes seems to be in two places at once, as people greet him and mention recent events to him which he cannot recall taking part in. Is there a double of himself running around London? Or is he going insane?
Well, it's never very clear, and that's the film's major flaw. For 70 minutes of the film, Moore's character just keeps wandering around hearing about how he is supposedly doing all these wild things, and he never does anything to investigate. He could very easily have changed his daily routine just slightly, in order to prove that he wasn't at a certain place at a certain time. He even has witnesses who can back him up and explain where he was at times in question. But he just keeps wandering around.
Maybe the American version of this film has been cut, which would certainly explain the ending, or lack of one.  Or something like that. So, for some reason, the two Roger Moore's jump into their cars and chase each other. During the chase, the "good" Roger Moore starts to hallucinate some really weird stuff, and then drives his car into a lake. The "evil" Roger Moore stops to watch, and as the "good" Roger Moore dies, the "evil" Roger Moore doubles over in pain. Then the end credits roll. What?! I don't get it.
The film has a good story, but its executed with such stupidity and bad logic that it quickly grows tiresome. It could be decently remade today, perhaps as a TV movie or even possibly as an "X-Files" episode. With a smart writer, this could have been one creepy, entertaining flick. But as it stands, it's just ridiculous.

Catch the fruit to earn jellybeans. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to aim for the shadows of the falling fruit. Toons in the trees will try to help by launching anvils at the Cogs, but make sure to not get hit! Anvils fall faster than the fruit so their shadows get bigger more quickly.

September 8
Plant a Seed and Watch It Grow!
And he said, Where unto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it
is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: But when it is sown, it grows up, and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it. Mark
4:30-32
Jesus compares the workings of the kingdom of God to planting seeds in the earth. "When the seed is sown," He said, "it grows up...."
Notice He didn't say that it would occasionally grow up. Or it grows up if it's God's will. He said, "It grows up and becomes greater." Period.
God's economy isn't like ours. It isn't up one day and down the other. It's always the same and it always works perfectly. If you have good earth, good seed and good water, you're going to have growth. It's inevitable.
So, if you're facing a need, don't panic... plant a seed!
That seed may take the form of money or time or some other resources you have to give. But, no matter what form it takes, make sure you put life in it by giving it in faith and surrounding it with praise and worship. Say, "Lord, as I bring You my goods, I bring myself. I give myself to You--spirit, soul and body."
Pray over that seed. Fill it with faith, worship and the Word. Then plant it. You can rest assured--it will grow up and become greater!
Scripture Reading: Genesis 1:11-31
