Freedom comes with many costs, not least responsibility. Social, psychological, financial, bodily, emotional : known and unknown costs, often to bystanders, turn any strategy to gain and protect freedom into an ambiguous quest. Sometimes because it isn't clear what freedom means.
Considering the costs borne by millions to obtain, for example freedom from slavery or freedom to vote, free knowledge movements seem rather safe and straightforward. By contrast, to consider the costs of free culture, free software or open scientific research may look adventurous, or perhaps just presumptuous. But this is what we will attempt to do, with appropriate humility.
Many people use and produce bits of free knowledge but any serious attempt quickly runs into tremendous barriers, in every field. Participants receive unequal welcome due to gender, language, cultural or economic differences. Occasionally, the production of intangible assets may intersects with broader historical movements, redefining their meanings and exposing their participants to unlimited costs.
During intense 5 days, a group of 10-12 people will gather in Marseille to discuss how free knowledge movements are built and what are the real costs attached to them. We will work together to see further than the fog of our news feeds and produce some sense by using the Book Sprint methodology created by Adam Hyde.
We are also inviting remote contribution of mini-essays on the topic. You are encouraged to contribute. Essays must be received by the end of November 3 UTCThursday, Nov 5 at 11:00 UTC (Paris: noon; New York: 6AM; Tokyo: 9PM) to be included in the book.
We’re asking people like yourself who have been fighting in the trenches of various free knowledge movements (culture, software, science, etc.) to contribute brief essays for inclusion in the book. One form an essay might take is a paragraph on each of:
- An issue you’ve faced that was challenging to you in your free knowledge work, through the lens on "cost"; perhaps a career or time opportunity cost, or the cost of dealing with unwelcoming or worse participants, or the cost of "peeling off layer upon layer the proprietary way of life" as put in www.adamhyde.net/open-is-not-a-license/
- How you addressed this challenge, or perhaps have yet to do so completely
- Advice to someone starting out in free knowledge; perhaps along the lines of had you understood the costs, what would you have done differently
But feel free to be maximally creative within the theme. We don’t have a minimum or a maximum required length for contributed essays, but especially do not be shy about concision or form. If all we get is haiku that might be a problem, or there might be a message in that of some sort.
Other details: The book will be PUBLISHED on Nov 6. We need your contribution no later than Thursday, Nov 5 at 11:00 UTC (Paris: noon; New York: 6AM; Tokyo: 9PM) to be included. The book will be released under CC0; giving up the “right” to sue anyone for any use whatsoever of your contribution is a cost of entry... or one of those proprietary layers to be peeled back.
Send contributions to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>The Cost of Freedom will be published on Nov 6 and freely available online under CC-0 license.

Imagine a worship service that features both strong preaching and the historic liturgy.” —Gene Veith

SQL Functions
If you want to include SQL functions — including user-defined SQL functions — it is easier that ever with DMZ. There are several ways to access custom SQL functions.
$object->func($function_name, $arg1, $arg2, ...)
The first is by directly creating one using the func method. This method builds a SQL function, and processes a variety of arguments.
- Operators: Mathematical and String operators, such as +, &, or || are inserted directly.
- Pre-Escaped Strings: If a string starts and ends with a single quote mark ('), or is the special string '*', it is added directly.
- Raw Strings: If a string starts and ends with square brackets ([ ]), the string (without brackets) is inserted directly without escaping.
- Non-Strings: Non strings are included in the SQL directly, such as numbers and boolean values.
- Column Names: Column names, or fields on a model, are strings that start with an at-symbol (@). These are replaced with properly protected names.
- Related Column Names: Related column names start with an @, but contain forward slashes to reference one or more relationships.
- Formulas: Passing in a set of arguments in an array is concatenated as a formula. In a formula, common operators are not escaped. Formulas can also recusively reference functions, as seen below.
- Simple Strings: Normal strings are escaped to be used in the function as SQL strings.
Please note that if user-provided content starts and stops with single-quote marks, or starts with an @ sign, the input may be inserted into the query without escaping
If you are planning on working with user-provided input, it may be wise to pre-escape this content with $object->db->escape_str().
Random Examples
$u = new User(); // UPPER('hello') $u->func('UPPER', 'hello'); // round(365 * `users`.`age`) $u->func('round', array(365, '*', '@age')); // round(sqrt(`users`.`id`)) $u->func('round', array('sqrt' => '@id')); // COALESCE(`users`.`name`, '') $u->func('COALESCE', '@name', ''); //Adds `group` table, and returns UPPER(`groups`.`name`) $u->func('UPPER', '@group/name'); // Trick to get a formula with no function // (365 * `users`.`age`) $u->func('', array(365, '*', '@age'));
Where the method is really powerful is that you can combine column names from either the direct table or from related models with functions and properties.
$object->select_func($function_name, [$arg1, [...]], $alias)
In this format, the result of the function is added to the select statement. The last argument is always used as the alias, and is required.
CodeIgniter has an overly aggressive method for protecting identifiers, and it cannot be disabled. This may break any attempt to include functions in the SELECT statement.
However, with a simple adjustment to the _protect_identifiers method of the DB_driver class, you can get it working again.
Examples
$u = new User(); // SELECT `users`.*, UPPER(`users`.`name`) as uppercase_name // FROM `users` $u->select_func('UPPER', '@name', 'uppercase_name')->get(); // SELECT `users`.*, (`groups`.`name` = 'Administrators') as is_admin // FROM `users` // LEFT OUTER JOIN `groups` as groups ON `groups`.`id` = `users`.`group_id` $u->select_func('', array('@group/name', '=', 'Administrators'), 'is_admin')->get();
$object->{query}_func($function_name, [$arg1, [$arg2, [...]], $value)
This format makes it easier to use formulas in queries. Not all methods have been tested at this time. The last parameter is required, and is passed to the supported query clause.
Example
$u = new User(); // SELECT `users`.* // FROM `users` // ORDER BY LOWER(`users`.`lastname` & ', ' & `users`.`firstname`) ASC $u->order_by_func('LOWER', array('@lastname', '&', ', ', '&', '@firstname'), 'ASC'); $u->get();
$object->{query}_field_func($field, $function_name, [$arg1, [$arg2, [...]])
This format is used for comparing database fields to the result of a function. The first parameter is the field name, and is passed to the supported query clause.
Example
$u = new User(); // SELECT `users`.* // FROM `users` // WHERE `users`.`birthdate` <= getLimitBirthdate(21) $u->where_field_func('birthdate <=', 'getLimitBirthdate', 21); $u->get();
Fixing the Protect Identifiers Method
Modifying the CI_DB_driver::_protect_identifiers method as directed will help fix most problems with AR changing data. You can also "escape" any possibly protected data by wrapping it in parentheses.
Please Note: If you upgrade your CodeIgniter installation, you'll have to make this change again!
In the file system/database/DB_driver.php, simply move the highlighted section, and remove .$alias from the return line.

--- layout: post title: Next week alias: /next-week published: true ---
Just a week to go until the next IPRUG!
No-one's volunteered to talk this month, so a couple of ideas for what we could do:1. Project Euler (suggested by Matthew). In pairs or small groups (or on your own if you're feeling antisocial!) see how far through the list of problems you can get in however much time we allocate before retiring to the bar. 2. Ruby clinic. Bring your ruby-related questions and problems along, and hopefully there will be someone amongst us who can suggest an answer. Maybe play around with some code on the screen to demonstrate tools/techniques people want to know more about. Questions from ruby newbies especially welcome!


God was so intelligent
He combines people
When their hearts are pure
And void of pasts,
And when we met
He was so bright
He had the reasons
To unite ours hearts.
I always needed you
You always needed me
I helped you
You helped me,
He knew what was ought to come
He knew it wouldn't be easy
He knew it all along.

For long, I've been self-destructing,
Long before you,
I am disgusted of myself,
I put no value in me,
I put no value in my body,
And slowly it has started to fall apart.
He knew only you could stop that
He knew only I could make you fly,
And know I'm in pain
I'm falling apart
I can no longer eat
The pain is unbearable
I have blood all over my mouth
My throat and teeth are yellling,
My voice is so horse,
I keep purging and purging,
There is no stop.
My health fragile
My mind is failing
And I am alone,
Because in the end
I know
Nobody really cares,
One person once did
But now I'm back at it
And my health is slowly fading away
The pain is becoming louder and louder,
I am alone
I am swiming in my own pain and misery
That is the truth
I am not okay
Only one person could save me
Only I could save that person
But now it's at an irreversible point
I wouldn't accept anything else
Now I'm far dead gone.
It is simply a question of time.

Bandec Las Tunas Celebrates Anniversary at the Top Nationwide
by István Ojeda BelloThe Directorate of the Bank of Credit and Commerce (Bandec) in this province of eastern Cuba celebrated the 22nd anniversary of the financial institution with the satisfaction of occupying the first place among its counterparts in the rest of the country.
Las Tunas, Cuba.- During this year, this bank continues to participate in the main working directions of the entity: the expansion of e-payment channels, e-commerce, subsidies for housing construction and financial services to companies and agricultural producers of the territory; while maintaining all the efficiency indicators in positive figures, said Xiomara Leyva Pérez, its director.
Entities such as Acinox Stainless Steel and the Metal Structures Factory, as well as sugarcane growers, are among the most common clients of the bank. Something that distinguishes them among their peers in other regions of the Archipelago is the stability in their workgroup and the efficiency in services, the directive added.
During the celebration here of the 22nd anniversary, the workers who have remained for five, 10, 15 and more than 30 years of uninterrupted work in the banking sector were awarded, as well as the branch 6461, the most prominent among the 11 that Bandec has in Las Tunas.

In JS object types and definitions can change at any time.
Using the instanceof
keyword to make assumptions about an object is unreliable
There are many cases (MDN instanceof docs) where it does not work anyway
Inspect the actual object.
X can do Y
if(obj.connect && obj.sync){
// can connect and sync
}
X has a Y
if(obj.collection){
// has a collection
}
You must inherit the whole class.
“The problem with object-oriented languages is they’ve got all this implicit environment that they carry around with them. You wanted a banana but what you got was a gorilla holding the banana and the entire jungle.”‐ Joe Armstrong
creator of Erlang
But ES6 Has the class
keyword…
... Not really an implementation of classical OOP
The ES6 class
implementation still has some problems
Any function can instantiate and return objects. When you do so without a constructor, it is called a factory function.
new
or a constructor.Classes (in ES5 and ES6) do not give you ANYTHING that is not already supplied by factory functions and the prototypal OO built into JS.
When you create a class you are opting into a less powerful, less flexible mechanism than a simple factory.

Connecting to SAP Concur
SAP Concur manages business expenses, travel, and invoices. In an integration, you can connect to SAP Concur and perform any one of a large variety of SAP Concur actions. For example, suppose that you store project codes in a SQL database and you need the same project codes in SAP Concur so that expenses can be associated with projects. You can create an integration that connects to your SQL database and runs a stored procedure that obtains any new project codes. The integration can then connect to SAP Concur and upload the new project codes to the appropriate list.
See the following topics:
User roles for connecting to SAP Concur
SAP Concur has an implementation site for development work and a production site for live use. The implementation site simulates the production site. This lets you create and refine an integration before you use it in production with the live SAP Concur site.
At any one time, a {prodname} environment can connect to the SAP Concur implementation site or the SAP Concur production site. In other words, a particular {prodname} environment does not support connections to both SAP Concur sites at the same time. Each {prodname} environment requires its own credentials for accessing each SAP Concur site and the credentials for the implementation site are different from the credentials for the production site.
Consequently, the expectation is that someone in a system administrator-like role would do the following:
-
Obtain two sets of OAuth credentials from SAP Concur:
-
One set for access to the SAP Concur implementation site
-
Another set for access to the SAP Concur production site
-
-
Configure the SAP Concur connector for access to the appropriate SAP Concur site.
-
Create a SAP Concur connection.
A business user can then create an integration that uses the SAP Concur connection.
How to Obtain SAP Concur implementation site OAuth credentials
To obtain credentials for accessing the SAP Concur implementation site, contact SAP Concur directly and tell them:
-
You want to register {prodname} as a new app that is authorized to access the SAP Concur implementation site.
-
You want a new set of OAuth credentials for their implementation site.
-
The credentials must include the
LIST
scope. -
Optionally, to obtain permission to perform actions other than the list actions, ask for other scopes.
-
The OAuth grant type for these credentials should be
Authorization Grant Flow
.To use a REST client, such as Postman, to send a request to the SAP Concur implementation site, you need credentials with an OAuth grant type of
Password
. -
The {prodname} callback URL for the environment that that you want credentials for, which is something like this:
https://syndesis.my-minishift.syndesis.io/api/v1/credentials/callback
In this URL,
syndesis.my-minishift.syndesis.io
matches the OpenShift route to your {prodname} environment.
The response from SAP Concur should provide:
-
A username and password for logging in to the SAP Concur implementation site.
-
Client ID and client secret values that you will specify in the {prodname} development environment Settings page to configure the {prodname} SAP Concur connector.
How to obtain SAP Concur production site OAuth credentials
To obtain OAuth credentials that authorize {prodname} to access the SAP Concur production site, go to the SAP Concur Developer Center Getting Started page and follow the instructions there.
Configuring the SAP Concur connector
To connect to SAP Concur in an integration, you must configure the {prodname} SAP Concur connector. You can then use the connector to create a connection to SAP Concur.
-
You know whether you want to configure the SAP Concur connector to access the SAP Concur implementation site or the SAP Concur production site.
-
You obtained OAuth credentials that authorize your {prodname} environment to access the appropriate SAP Concur site.
-
In {prodname}, in the left panel, click Settings.
-
On the Settings page, expand the SAP Concur entry.
-
In the Client ID field, enter the client ID that you received from SAP Concur.
-
In the Client Secret field, enter the client secret that you received from SAP Concur.
{prodname} populates the other fields.
-
Click Save.
{prodname} immediately tries to validate the configuration. If validation is not successful, correct the input values and try again. If validation is successful, you can create a SAP Concur connection, which you can add to an integration.
-
Click the SAP Concur entry to collapse it.
Create a SAP Concur connection.
Creating a SAP Concur connection
To connect to SAP Concur in an integration, you must first create a SAP Concur connection, which you can then add to any number of integrations. When you create a SAP Concur connection, you authorize the connection to access SAP Concur with the login credentials that you enter when you create the connection.
-
In the {prodname} environment in which you are creating the connection, you must have configured the SAP Concur connector.
-
You should know whether the connector is configured for access to the SAP Concur implementation site or the SAP Concur production site.
-
You must have a user name and password for logging in to the SAP Concur site for which the SAP Concur connector is configured.
-
In {prodname}, in the left panel, click Connections to display any available connections.
-
Click Create Connection to display the available connectors. A connector is a template that you use to create one or more connections.
-
Click the SAP Concur connector.
-
In the Configure Connection page, click Connect SAP Concur, which takes you to the SAP Concur site for which the connector is configured.
If Connect SAP Concur does not appear, then the SAP Concur connector in your {prodname} environment is not configured. See Configuring the SAP Concur connector.
If
redirect_uri is improper or not previously registered
appears, then the SAP Concur connector configuration is incorrect. Return to the {prodname} Settings page to update and validate the connector configuration. -
On the SAP Concur OAuth site:
-
Enter the email address for the SAP Concur account that you want this connection to use to access SAP Concur.
-
Ensure that Username is selected.
-
Click Continue.
-
Enter the SAP Concur password associated with the email address.
-
Click Sign In, which returns you to {prodname}.
-
-
In the {prodname} Name field, enter your choice of a name that helps you distinguish this connection from any other connections. For example, enter
SAP Concur Test1
. -
In the Description field, optionally enter any information that is helpful to know about this connection. For example, enter
Sample SAP Concur connection to the implementation site.
-
Click Save to see that the connection you created is now available. If you entered the example name, you would see that SAP Concur Test1 appears as a connection that you can choose to add to an integration.
Adding a SAP Concur connection to an integration
You can add a SAP Concur connection to the middle of a flow or as the finish connection in a simple integration. A connection to SAP Concur can perform any one of 85 actions.
-
You created a SAP Concur connection.
-
You are creating or editing a flow.
-
{prodname} is prompting you to add to the integration, or to choose the finish connection in a simple integration.
-
On the Add to Integration page, click the plus sign where you want to add the connection. Skip this step if {prodname} is prompting you to choose the finish connection.
-
Click the SAP Concur connection that you want to add to the flow. When the integration uses the connection that you select, {prodname} uses the credentials defined in that connection to connect to SAP Concur.
-
Select the action that you want the connection to perform. Each SAP Concur connection that you add to a flow performs only the action you choose.
For details about SAP Concur actions, visit the SAP Concur developer center and expand v3.0.
-
Click Next to add the connection to the flow.
The connection appears in the integration visualization where you added it.
Example of mapping integration data fields to SAP Concur fields
In most integrations, you need to add a data mapping step before a connection to SAP Concur. In the data mapping step, you map data fields that are available from previous integration steps to SAP Concur action parameters. In the data mapper, the Target panel displays the SAP Concur parameters for the action that you selected when you added the SAP Concur connection to the integration.
Suppose that an integration starts by executing a SQL stored procedure that obtains new project codes. The integration finishes by adding new project codes to SAP Concur. The following procedure provides an example of a data mapper step before the SAP Concur connection. The integration visualization displays and {prodname} is prompting you to add to the integration.
-
In the integration visualization, click the plus sign that is before the SAP Concur finish connection.
-
Click Data Mapper. When the data fields appear, the Sources panel on the left displays the fields that are available from the database connection. In this example, the source fields include
concur-list-id
andproject-code
. The Target panel on the right displays the SAP Concurid
andcontent
parameters for the update list action, which the connection performs. -
Map the
concur-list-id
source field to theid
target field. -
Map the
project-code
source field to thecontent
target field. -
In the upper right, click Done to add the data mapper step to the integration.

Niyah Baptiste - video on HCPS de-segregation
https://www.powtoon.com/s/cOoMLnrdKPD/1/m
My last bit of research comes from another article titled, “6 Are Arrested on Freedom Ride:Trepass Charges Follow U.S. 40 Demonstration.” It tells the story of a few college studentstraveling from up north to the south and along their travel they decided to test segregatedrestaurants. They would spread out into small groups all up and down U.S.40 from Baltimore,Maryland to Delaware making their presence known. These group of individuals were known asFreedom Riders. A Freedom Rider was someone who challenged racial laws up and down the eastcoast mainly in the American South in the late 1950’s and 60’s. They would challenge those raciallaws by refusing to sit in law assigned

The cohesiveness with de-segregation and these articles tells the process of how dividedthis country has always been. Many movements have been created over the years to continue toprotect and help grow our black communities. Movements and associations like the NAACP, TheCivil Rights Movement, The Black Panthers and The Black Lives Matter Movement. Even whenAfrican Americans feel like we have been held in a chokehold and robbed of our dignity andrespect we still rise and shine on our enemy. The oppressor has tried to keep us down for centuries,but we will never let that happen. African Americans will continue to fight no matter how long ittakes to us defeat all odds against us. Even though my ancestors broke through the chains ofinjustice and inequality, it still seems like we have more work to do. The change must begin withourselves. Prayerfully, as time goes on everything will work out for the better

This demo requires a browser with Custom Elements v1 support.
Google Chrome as of version 54 is a good choice.
On earlier versions, this feature was also implemented behind a flag,
like in older Chrome Canary versions,
where one could start Canary from the command line like so:
/Applications/Google\ Chrome\ Canary.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome\ Canary --enable-blink-features=CustomElementsV1
If you don’t see a Trump hat, your browser doesn’t support Custom Elements v1 (see the About Notes above).

| Prev | Up | Chapter 36. Triggers | Next |
Here is a very simple example of a trigger function written in C. (Examples of triggers written in procedural languages can be found in the documentation of the procedural languages.)
The function trigf
reports the number of rows in the
table ttest and skips the actual operation if the
command attempts to insert a null value into the column
x. (So the trigger acts as a not-null constraint but
doesn't abort the transaction.)
First, the table definition:
CREATE TABLE ttest ( x integer );
This is the source code of the trigger function:
#include "postgres.h" #include "executor/spi.h" /* this is what you need to work with SPI */ #include "commands/trigger.h" /* ... and triggers */ #ifdef PG_MODULE_MAGIC PG_MODULE_MAGIC; #endif extern Datum trigf(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS); PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1(trigf); Datum trigf(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS) { TriggerData *trigdata = (TriggerData *) fcinfo->context; TupleDesc tupdesc; HeapTuple rettuple; char *when; bool checknull = false; bool isnull; int ret, i; /* make sure it's called as a trigger at all */ if (!CALLED_AS_TRIGGER(fcinfo)) elog(ERROR, "trigf: not called by trigger manager"); /* tuple to return to executor */ if (TRIGGER_FIRED_BY_UPDATE(trigdata->tg_event)) rettuple = trigdata->tg_newtuple; else rettuple = trigdata->tg_trigtuple; /* check for null values */ if (!TRIGGER_FIRED_BY_DELETE(trigdata->tg_event) && TRIGGER_FIRED_BEFORE(trigdata->tg_event)) checknull = true; if (TRIGGER_FIRED_BEFORE(trigdata->tg_event)) when = "before"; else when = "after "; tupdesc = trigdata->tg_relation->rd_att; /* connect to SPI manager */ if ((ret = SPI_connect()) < 0) elog(ERROR, "trigf (fired %s): SPI_connect returned %d", when, ret); /* get number of rows in table */ ret = SPI_exec("SELECT count(*) FROM ttest", 0); if (ret < 0) elog(ERROR, "trigf (fired %s): SPI_exec returned %d", when, ret); /* count(*) returns int8, so be careful to convert */ i = DatumGetInt64(SPI_getbinval(SPI_tuptable->vals[0], SPI_tuptable->tupdesc, 1, &isnull)); elog (INFO, "trigf (fired %s): there are %d rows in ttest", when, i); SPI_finish(); if (checknull) { SPI_getbinval(rettuple, tupdesc, 1, &isnull); if (isnull) rettuple = NULL; } return PointerGetDatum(rettuple); }
After you have compiled the source code (see Section 35.9.6), declare the function and the triggers:
CREATE FUNCTION trigf() RETURNS trigger AS 'filename' LANGUAGE C; CREATE TRIGGER tbefore BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON ttest FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE trigf(); CREATE TRIGGER tafter AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON ttest FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE trigf();
Now you can test the operation of the trigger:
=> INSERT INTO ttest VALUES (NULL); INFO: trigf (fired before): there are 0 rows in ttest INSERT 0 0 -- Insertion skipped and AFTER trigger is not fired => SELECT * FROM ttest; x --- (0 rows) => INSERT INTO ttest VALUES (1); INFO: trigf (fired before): there are 0 rows in ttest INFO: trigf (fired after ): there are 1 rows in ttest ^^^^^^^^ remember what we said about visibility. INSERT 167793 1 vac=> SELECT * FROM ttest; x --- 1 (1 row) => INSERT INTO ttest SELECT x * 2 FROM ttest; INFO: trigf (fired before): there are 1 rows in ttest INFO: trigf (fired after ): there are 2 rows in ttest ^^^^^^ remember what we said about visibility. INSERT 167794 1 => SELECT * FROM ttest; x --- 1 2 (2 rows) => UPDATE ttest SET x = NULL WHERE x = 2; INFO: trigf (fired before): there are 2 rows in ttest UPDATE 0 => UPDATE ttest SET x = 4 WHERE x = 2; INFO: trigf (fired before): there are 2 rows in ttest INFO: trigf (fired after ): there are 2 rows in ttest UPDATE 1 vac=> SELECT * FROM ttest; x --- 1 4 (2 rows) => DELETE FROM ttest; INFO: trigf (fired before): there are 2 rows in ttest INFO: trigf (fired before): there are 1 rows in ttest INFO: trigf (fired after ): there are 0 rows in ttest INFO: trigf (fired after ): there are 0 rows in ttest ^^^^^^ remember what we said about visibility. DELETE 2 => SELECT * FROM ttest; x --- (0 rows)
There are more complex examples in src/test/regress/regress.c and in contrib/spi.

Oral presentation is preferred; poster presentation is acceptable.
The discussions following the Kyoto Protocol have emphasized the need to understand better the potential regional impacts of global climate change. Impacts on agriculture, water resources, human health, and ecosystems are tied to climate change over regions (provinces, counties or states) rather than to changes in broad continental or global averages. It is therefore imperative to understand and, ideally, to predict how global climate change is manifested at these regional scales.
The horizontal resolution of present-day numerical general circulation models (GCMs) is too coarse to provide satisfactory depictions of regional climate change. Studies of regional climate-change impacts thus require methodologies to translate GCM output to smaller scales. Using the GCM output to drive limited-area atmospheric simulations of climate change on regional scales is a promising but relatively new approach and research is actively underway to assess its merits. In response to a challenge from the Working Group on Numerical Experimentation (WGNE) of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP), we are coordinating a community-based project to examine the validity of the regional climate modelling approach and to assess its added value relative to GCM predictions.
An international team of nine modeling groups from North America, Europe and Australia is conducting the first stage of this research, in which sub-seasonal (60 day) simulations are being performed for two extreme events in the central United States. Preliminary results indicate strengths and weaknesses common to these regional models as well as occasional substantial differences between models. The second stage is being performed using three of these regional models to simulate 10 years of climate for the central United States. These simulations are being run with three sets of lateral boundary conditions:

Hello World,
If you open this web page it doesn't mean you are curious about me
it means you are the considerate person


From the early 1960s on, Gary Winogrand's personal photojournalistic shots of disturbing, densely packed moments won him acclaim as an important chronicler of contemporary American life. Until recently he had worked exclusively with small-format cameras and available light to capture telling moments in a seemingly casual, "uncomposed" manner. His use of wide-angle lenses and tilted framing creates images both satirical and disturbing. 1
If Friedlander synthesized the documentary and expressionist traditions, then Winogrand synthesized the documentary and photojournalist traditions. Indeed his own background includes working for almost twenty years as a free-lance photojournalist for Sports Illustrated, Fortune, Look, Life, Carriers, and Pageant. Winogrand's noncommercial photographs come from that same public world which is the province of photojournalism. In newspaper jargon, his photographs are a series of "quick takes." They have the look and feel, the looseness and spontaneity of an "honest" shot. They are essentially narrative images of "human interest." Tod Papageorge has called them "proverbs, fables, jokes." They are "stoppers": provocative shots that "catch and hold the reader's eye." They show "more than meets the eye." Because of their humanity, they could easily be used to build up a picture story. Because of their wit, it would not be surprising if they turned up as Life's last spread: "Speaking of Pictures." 2

CHICAGO (AP) - Charlie Moore scored 17 points, Markese Jacobs had 16 off the bench and DePaul defeated Division III Chicago 84-55 on Wednesday night, the Blue Demons’ second win in as many days.
Jaylen Butz added 14 points on 7-of-7 shooting for DePaul and Romeo Weems had 11.
Moore and Jacobs both went 5 of 9 from the field as the Blue Demons shot 59% for the game after shooting 68% in the first half to take a 46-31 lead. Moore was 7 of 7 from the foul line and Jacobs made 3 of 7 from 3-point range.
Chicago didn’t have a player reach double figures. The Maroons shot 28% for the game, 21% in the second half.

UK PM Johnson says Britain will leave EU by Jan. 31
by Agency ReportBritish Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Friday said that Britain would leave the EU by Jan. 31 at the latest if his Conservative Party wins a majority in the election in two weeks time.
“If we can get a working majority then we will come on Jan. 31 at the absolute latest,” Johnson said.
He also repeated his message that he saw no reason why Britain would need to extend the transition period after Brexit beyond the end of 2020.
Asked if he would rather be prime minister or have Britain leave the EU, he replied: “I would rather get us out of the EU. I can tell you that.”
Similarly, Johnson said that he would not say how many children he had, saying that he would not “put them on the pitch” ahead of the Dec. 12 election.
“I love my children very much, but they are not standing at this election, and I am not, therefore, going to comment,” said Johnson, whose colorful love life has attracted tabloid attention in the past.
“I am not going to put them on to the pitch in this election.”
When asked if he was going to have more children, Johnson, 55, who is living at Downing Street with his partner Carrie Symonds after separating from his wife last year, said: “I’m not going to get into discussions (on this).” (Reuters/NAN)

Lantern
Powered by Snek-LMS
It's no secret that deep learning is the hot new kid on the block.
Even as deep learning techniques become more and more well-understood, neural network architectures grow increasingly sophisticated and diverse seemingly every day. This has caused a swell of interest in deep learning (and programming at large), though many potential researchers find themselves dismayed at the lack of tools which are both efficient and expressive. Indeed, for many, it seems impossible to have the best of both worlds!
But no longer.
Lantern is a new, highly expressive, framework for deep learning developed at Purdue University, written entirely in Scala. Lantern utilizes delimited continuations and shift/reset constructs for extremely high-level coding while generating C++ code at runtime to avoid sacrificing performance.

I was 24 years old when I got the flu, which then turned into a raging chest infection. I was prescribed codeine cough medicine. My chest infection subsided shortly thereafter, but I continued to take the cough medicine because it helped me fall asleep and took my mind off of anything bothersome. I remember running out of the cough syrup and throwing the bottle in the trash. After coming home from work that day, I went directly to the trash and rummaged through to get to the empty bottle, thinking I could salvage any remaining little drizzle of medicine there was left. I added a little water to the bottle, shook it hard, and then gulped the watered down medicine hoping to get some relief. I found this experience disturbing, but paid no real attention. In the days after I ran out of the stuff, I was upset and wished I could have more, but I got over it.
Occasionally I would get a few Percocet or Vicodin from friends who had had their teeth pulled or whatnot. I deeply enjoyed these pills, and always felt empty and let down when the supply ran out. However, I never made it my intention to go out of my way to seek these drugs, and merely continued to hope that the occasional serendipitous moment of generosity would strike a friend who had broken a bone or had minor surgery and the pills would once again be a part of my life.
A few months later I found out that my motherís friend had an ample supply of Ultram. I think she was ordering them online. They were 100 mg tablets. Sometimes I had taken some of my motherís Lorazepam to fall asleep, but never felt happy on that. They really only made me sleepy. I also had a habit of taking Benadryl or Nyquil or Tylenol PM to fall asleep on the nights when I didnít have access to anything stronger, which was really nearly every night for over two years. Occasionally I would drink in combination with these drugs to fall asleep. I appreciated that sensation of suddenly not being able to sit up straight or hold my eyes open. I looked forward to the moment when I would be chatting right along with a friend on the phone and suddenly my speech would begin to slur because Iíd be so tired. Just like that, out of the blue, it would feel like I had been knocked over the head by Mr. Sandman, and dragged helplessly into dreamland.
Because I was curious and always looking for some relief from myself, I asked my motherís friend if I could try an Ultram and she generously said yes. She is a very giving woman, and handed me four or five 100 mg pills. I took one right away and felt rather good. I wanted to eat toast with cinnamon and sugar and butter on it. I think I instinctively knew I should buffer my stomach with food so as not to vomit. Plus, sugar and flour products also calm and comfort me, so the combination of the Ultram and the toast was sweet, unadulterated heaven for me. I ate a lot of toast and felt happy, warm and cozy.
The next morning I had a headache and felt a little hung over. I didnít pay much attention to this because the Benadryl, Nyquil and binging on sugar products gave me more of a sensation of being hung over than the Ultram. The headache was admittedly troublesome though.
Of course the four or five pills my motherís friend gave me disappeared in as many nights. And when they were gone I asked for more, knowing she would say yes. About a month or two after that I couldnít achieve the same high with the one 100 mg pill anymore. It was sort of like not being able to come, a feeling I find to be unbearably disappointing and totally unacceptable. I wanted that familiar release from tension and anxiety. I asked my motherís friend for more and more and she suggested I should slow down with the Ultram. I then began stealing them from her when she wasnít around. I would sometimes ask her for a few, she would agree and give a few to me, and then I would steal 30 or 40 when she wasnít there, justifying my horrible behavior with the fact that I had technically asked her for them earlier and she had said yes, so it couldnít be too bad if I took a few more on my own.
I went from taking 100mg at a time to 300mg at a time. In the end I needed 4 pills to feel alright. I would watch Northern Exposure from my bed. It would be daytime and I would have had a few days off from work, so I felt safe getting royally fucked, knowing I would have enough time to recuperate before having to go back to work. I could take four pills at a time and three hours later take another one or two to keep the high going.
As I lay there watching the TV and waiting for the warmth to creep in all over my whole body, I would get severe ringing in my ears. I would nod out, jolting awake wondering how I ever fell asleep to begin with. I was weak but not really tired. Somehow I could fall in and out of consciousness without being totally aware of doing so. I would think I was wide awake and then suddenly I would jolt awake, startling myself. Sometimes if I laid down flat after having taken a handful of the pills, it would feel like I was sinking down into my bed, or like the bed was rising up and swallowing me. I always had itchy skin, and couldnít stop rubbing my face and nose to try to alleviate the itchiness. I would notice that my jaw would be clenched tightly and then I would release and relax my jaw muscles, but before I knew it Iíd be clenching my teeth again. None of this mattered to me of course. I felt nothing at all, was entirely numb to the world, without a care.
When these highs wore off I would have an excruciating headache, so bad that I would be nauseous. I would have diarrhea and would be absolutely sick. I would be very, very depressed, often times thinking I might lose my mind if I didnít get some more Ultram. I wondered if I was going insane. My anxiety would get out of control when I ran out of the pills. I would be incapacitated with anxiety, could not rest or sit still, and could not make sense of my reality. Nothing felt right. My whole life was unbearable when I didnít have the pills.
The best thing about these pills was that they made me feel euphoric. I had no access to the part of my brain that controls worry. I am an extremely anxious and depressed person, and these pills provided me a temporary respite from the unbearable anxiety and minute to minute tension I experience when Iím sober. I enjoyed these pills more than drinking because they were neater, compact, free (because I was stealing them), and easier to hide. Drinking, Benadryl, Nyquil or a combination of the three with a whole lot of flour and sugar products would be the substitute on the terrible days when I didnít have Ultram.
To this day I crave the pills. It has been 14 months since I have taken any, and 6 months since I have had a drink or taken any Benadryl or Nyquil. I am also trying to stop eating flour and sugar.

If you decided to use images on your web page, first of all, you need to ask yourself three main questions:
1. Is it relevant?
2. Is it interesting?
3. Is it appealing?
You answered “yes” on at least two of them? Congratulations! You can start to put images on your web page!
When you are ready to work with the images you will have a question: “How can I choose it and where?” You always have the answer on this question. There are three options that you can choose from: create it, purchase it, or hire a professional who can create it specially for you. The approach that you will take is depend on the budget and, also, needs of your client. Do not forget about your own skills.
1. If you decided to create image by yourself it is a good option. It could be image that you created through the application or even taking pictures by using the camera. When you take the photos with your camera it shows to the client that you are involved in the work and have an interest of doing it. It can help you to make the relations with your clients more respectful and trustful.
2. Unfortunately, because of the luck of time or camera itself it not always works for you. Do not panic because you have a free stock images. However, because it is for free the quality of the images might be not so professional as you expected. So, you have one more option - to purchase the images. You should know for sure how much your client or you want to spend on the images.
Note: Do not forget, that royalty free images are not free. You but the permission to use the images. Therefore, you pay anyway.
3. The third option is to hire a professional photographer who will create the images that you need so much. Make sure that you will find the professional that has an a great experience with commercial photography, do not hire people who do not know how to work with clients. Professionals can cost more but it worth it. When you got your perfect photographer spend some time by creating the clear details what and you want. Also, state where you want the photo taken and with whom (location, models, props, decorations, etc.). Be sure to have a contract with your photographer.
Cropping is a process where some of the most profound impacts were made on the presentation of an image and came from wisely choosing what should be included, and what should not. At its most basic level, cropping can be used to eliminate details that you do not need on the picture.
There you will find the most common techniques how to crop the image:
1. Try to show a different perspective or you can follow the Rule of Thirds that usually used in the photography.
2. You can turn a vertical image to a horizontal or, in other words, vice versa.
3. Remove all distractions and space that you do not use.
There are a lot of special apps that are great for cropping the images. One of them is Photoshop or Sketch.
Now it is time to talk about file format and resolution.
For the web browsers designers use three formant such as JPEG, PNG, and GIF.
1. JPEG (.jpg) is an image compression format that was developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. JPEG unlike PNG and GIF, is great for photos that have small size. However, this format works well with photos or graphics that have heavy texture or long gradients.
2. GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is an 8-bit format that was create to compress files on the basis of the number of colors in the image that you want to use. Unfortunately, GIF files they can support a maximum of only 256 colors, this skill makes it unideal for photography. However, the GIF files support animations and display transparency. That is why if you see animation in your app it is a GIF file.
3. The PNG (Portable Networks Graphics) format was specially developed by the W3C as an alternative to GIF. All PNG files can be saved in either 8-bit or 24-bit format. Both of these flavors support transparency. However, you should remember that there are some differences between 8- and 24-bit formats. It means that 8-bit format is very similar to the GIF format and shares many of the same features. And the 24-bit format is implemented through an alpha channel.
I hope you like my Color Theory!

Java ReferenceDefining custom entity classesYou can easily use a custom instance class for an entity. All you have to do is to specify its full qualified name in the 'class' attribute of the target entity in the configuration file. The class can be a POJO (Plain Old Java Object). You can then decide to declare some of the getters or setters, or one of the insert(), update() or delete() methods if you want to specialize them, for instance to include some specific validation code. It is also allowed to have your class inherit from
Standalone usageIf you are not using the velocity-tools project, you can easily populate a Velocity context with a code as simple as this one:
Some remarks, thought:
Alternatively, you can handle yourself the initialization process:
JavadocYou can build the javadoc using the 'javadoc' ant target. Using Velosurf from within JavaVelosurf can be used from Java as easily as from VTL. It can be more convenient than using the jdbc classes and methods, especially if you want to re-use from Java the attributes you have defined in velosurf.xml. Please note that to avoid sql connection timeouts, you should not declare Velosurf prepared statements as variables having a long lifecycle (like static members). You should only keep references to Velosurf connection objets on the long term (they do handle timeouts). |
