Two masked robbers took hundreds of dollars worth of tobacco products, bag of chips, police say
by Maija InveissMADISON, Wis. - Two people with masks entered Walgreens on Mineral Point Road around 12:30 a.m. Friday and stole tobacco products and a bag of chips, according to an incident report.
The report said a clerk initially didn't think anything when the two masked individuals came in since it was Halloween.
One of the people kept a hand in a pocket while telling the clerk to "open the cigs," the release said. The clerk said one person was a woman wearing an iridescent skull mask and the other was a male wearing a "Scream" Ghostface mask.
The robbers took hundreds of dollars worth of tobacco products and a bag of chips.


Infinite Jest
by David Foster Wallace (1996)
I've had such a diverse set of reactions to this, and how could I not? The writing is bold and idiosyncratic throughout. The novel's story is not presented in chronological order, and the timeline is obfuscated by the gleeful adoption of 'subsidised time', in which traditional numeric monikers denoting each calender year are replaced by the sponsored labels designated by major corporations - 'Year of the Whopper', and so on - a marvellous concept which nevertheless makes it completely and artificially impossible to tell what the hell's going on until about 500 pages in.
The whole novel unashamedly celebrates the author's literary and formal grammatical credentials - from the extraordinarily-crafted opening scene, where a tragically misunderstood literary genius disastrously fails a university entrance interview, with just a hint of a semi-autobiographical air about him. Scenes of superlative execution are interspersed with a narrative that is, on the whole, told in the third person but in the argot of the currently eminent protagonist, leading to large swathes of the book which are, like, more than conversational in their familiarity. The combination gives rise to a relentlessly inventive stream of neology and malapropism.
While the book resoundingly makes many insightful points by the conclusion, the story which serves as a vehicle for their delivery is, a collision of ideas, introducing entirely new and unexplored premises at the 11th hour, which peter out, ignored and unresolved, by the final page. The jest continues on, I suppose.
The insidious footnotes for which Wallace's writings are well-known do not serve to streamline the prose by separating out incidental annotations, but instead seem specifically employed to elevate the reader's awareness of the footnotes themselves. Including them in the main body of the text would allow for the possibility of a busy reader failing to give each pithy addendum it's full, weighty consideration. Wallace cunningly obviates this possibility, by discreetly giving pause to any reader assiduously trying to do their best with a challenging book, requiring them to invoke the titillating ritual of thumbing forward a literal thousand pages or so, giving an involuntary moment of rest in the narrative in which the reader may properly anticipate the mysterious text to be revealed while they dereference the footnote's numeric identifier, and then a second pause afterwards to properly digest and appreciate, while they thumb a literal thousand pages back again to find where they left off. Three hundred and eighty eight times, no less. Plus sub-footnotes, obviously. Some of these are pages-long tomes of critically insightful dialog between major characters. Many others are completely irrelevant technical specifications.  Does this really make the novel somehow better? While I laughed and cried about the content of many of the footnotes, I remain unconvinced by the mechanism of their delivery.
I rant about these aspects of style because these are definitely the first impressions any reader will have. Getting into the book does require a little work. But fortunately Wallace more than provides the incentive to do so. The book ranges over many areas, but is mostly about addiction, in its many forms, and its relationship to freedom of will and to happiness. These are deep and interesting topics, and are unflinchingly explored with a very keen eye. For every one of the annoyances mentioned above, the book provides powerful rewards for those who stick it out. The heart-wrenching depictions of people going through the utter destruction of their humanity are as touching and insightful as anything I have read.
There are some problems or tasks in life which are small enough that an individual can overcome them by force of will, grinding down the problem until it is flattened and overcome. This approach fails, however, when the problem is too large or too hard. Some problems cannot be crushed by any individual. To navigate past them requires that, instead of trying to demolish the problem, the individual must instead mould themselves to fit around the problem's existing contours. People emerge on the other side of these experiences triumphant but sober - having been changed to their core by the experience. I consider Infinite Jest to belong to this latter class of experience. From the base-camp of its 981 pages (plus 98 of footnotes), it is intimidating and uncompromising. You love it and hate it in equal measure, and it makes no attempt to pander to the former. But as I ploughed on, through it, week after week after week, I grew to enjoy it more and more and more. I began to see reminders of it everywhere I looked. I spotted echoes of its style in the speech of friends who are fans of Wallace. It began, very subtly, to infect my own speech and writing. The topics it covered touched me to the core, changing my outlook on deep issues such as religion. By the time I reached the very last page I emerged, bruised and weary, but also tremendously excited - I actually flipped it right back and re-read the first few chapters all over again.
Now for perhaps the greatest test to date of my supposedly subjectivity-proof rating system. Here goes:
Rating:
10/10: If you are ready for a challenge, that entertains and wrenches in equal measure, stretching you, changing your definitions, taking you on a tour of regions you never knew existed.  It will leave you a different person than when you began.
0/10: If you can't be bothered.

Donald Trump 'Too Busy' to Watch 'Boring' Impeachment Hearings
President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he was too busy to watch the first public impeachment hearing, as he hosted Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the White House.
by Charlie Spiering“I’m too busy to watch it,” he said. “It’s a witch hunt, it’s a hoax, I’m too busy to watch it.”
Trump said that he would get briefed on the day’s testimony later in the day.
He commented that he had heard that Democrats were using “television lawyers” to question the witnesses at the hearing.
“I’m not surprised to see it, because Schiff can’t do his own questions,” he said.
Trump was referring to former MSNBC legal analyst Daniel Goldman, who Schiff recruited to conduct the examination of the witnesses Ambassador Bill Taylor and Deputy Assistant Secretary George Kent.
White House Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham called the hearing “boring.”
“This sham hearing is not only boring, it is a colossal waste of taxpayer time and money,” she wrote on Twitter.
House Democrats spent the first 93 minutes on opening statements before members of Congress could question the witnesses.
The White House also released a video at noon with the president declaring the investigation as the “single greatest scam in the history of American politics.”
He reminded supporters that Democrats wanted to take away their guns, health care, vote, freedom, and judges with the impeachment process.
“It’s all very simple, they’re trying to stop me because I am fighting for you and I will never let that happen,” Trump said.

"Dark City" A SCIENCE FICTION WORLD review, (C) 1999/2000 KWISATZ HADERACH. Visit SCIENCE FICTION WORLD: WWW.SFWORLD.ONLINEHOME.DE
Cast: Rufus Sewell, Kiefer Sutherland, Jennifer Connely, Richard O'Brien, Ian Richardson, William Hurt Director/Author: Alex Proyas Producers: Alex Proyas & Andrew Mason Origin: USA/Australia 1998 Duration: 103 minutes
SFWORLD Rating: 4 1/2 Stars (out of 5)
"Dark City" is a very special movie. Published in 1998 it creates a very interesting atmosphere by using many good ideas from different sf-novels, -short-stories and -movies. For me it can be described best as a mixture of Franz Kafka and Philip K. Dick. Maybe that's the main reason why I like the movie that much. The movie starts with the main character John Murdoch (Rufus Sewell) lying sleeping in a bath. Very soon he awakes and recognizes that he has lost his memory. Neither can he remember who he is nor where. He gets to know that is in a strange hotel and after a while he finds out that he is wanted for a series of brutal and very bizarre murders. In panic he leaves the house to find himself on the dark and cold street near a ringing telephone. He answers the telephone and a man who introduces himself as Dr. Schreiber (Kiefer Sutherland) tells him that something has gone wrong and that he has to hide because "they" are searching for him and that they must not get him. Although he flees the same moment "they" are able to find him shortly afterwards. Being attacked by them he uses the ability to "tune" that means to use a supernatural power which originally only "them" had. This power allows him to make things happen while only thinking of them. He did not knew that he had those power but now he has a weapon to defend himself. Of course he tries to find out the following: Who am I ? Why do I have those powers ? Why are "they" hunting me ? In the further story he gets to know that he is the only human in the dark city who has such powers and that these powers must be a result of the failed experiment that "they" had done to him. What he also gets to know is that the whole city is used by the aliens as a big labor to study human behaviour. "They" are from a dying race which believe it's only chance to survive is to find out what makes humans humane. To study the humans "they" have brought some ten thousand of them to a synthetic city which drives through space. From where they have been kidnapped no one knows. But on the asteroid only the city exists there's nothing around it although all people of the believe so. Only our main character realises that but he is always on the run so that he can not be caught and he doesn't know how or if he can change the things. "Shell-Beach", in the memories of many people of the town a wonderful place, doesn't exist too. It is false as nearly all the peoples memories are. Every night at 12 o'clock the strangers stop all motion in the city and all the human inhabitants fall asleep from one second to another. The strangers then visit all humans sleeping and manipulate their memories with the help of Dr. Schneider by injecting a special liquid directly into the people's brains. Every portion of the liquid includes new memories which erases the old ones. So when the people finally awake they are absolutely sure that they are someone else, have another job and another personal history. The strangers' work is perfect which means that "they" are not only changing the people's memories but that they also change their environment. The whole environment is changed in that way that it fits the people's new image of themselves including photographs of their last holidays which have never taken place but their wrong memory tells them that it has been and the photographs or other things confirm their belief. The strangers who are searching for the secret of humanity, for the "soul" as they call it, have a collective conscience similar to the borg in "Star Trek". While hunting John Murdoch everyone of them gets to know when and where he is found by someone of the collective. But by using his tuning-abilities he is always able to escape from them. On his run step by step he finds out all the secrets of the dark city and of their "owners". He discerns that "they" can not cope with sunlight and that "they" hate every form of water. That is also the reason why there has never been a day, never been a ray of light in the dark city. The whole town lives in an endless night although the human inhabitants believe that they live a "normal" live with day and night because of their synthetic memories. During one of the nightly tuning-sessions John Murdoch meets Dr. Schneider who tells him the whole story and promises to help him. "They" are finally able to find him because one of "them" has been injected the same memories he has and so he is able to think just like Murdoch. Threatening his "wife" (also a false memory) Emma Murdoch (Jennifer Connely) they force him to give up.  In "their" central "they" want Dr. Schneider to let his spirit melt with "their" collective conscience but doc Schneider injects him something else which makes him even more powerful. With the help of those new powers he faces "their" leader in a final fight and as he wins he is in the city's control. He frees the dark city and lets the sun shine, in the end he creates shell-beach where he meets his "wife" again.
Although "Dark City" uses a lot of old ideas from Kafka, Dick, Star Trek and many others it is able to create an own atmosphere and a very special dark and mysterious mute. Maybe the single ideas aren't new but in this special mixture they are ingenious. Many critics accused Alex Proyas, the author and director of "Dark City", of having created a movie which looks really good but which story isn't worth to talk about. They said that he has concentrated himself too much on the visual effects and therefore has forgotten the content. In my opinion it is true that the backgrounds of "Dark City" are fabulous and that they can be best compared with "Blade Runner" which is a real compliment for every movie. But I don't think that Proyas has forgotten the content. Not only that the movie has a very intense atmosphere it has also a story which in my eyes is worth to think and talk about. The music fits the style and mute of the movie perfectly, it is dark, mysterious and powerful. I can't remember who composed that music but whoever it was he has done a really good job. Regarding the movie as whole "Dark City" is in fact one of the best science-fiction movies ever, watch it !

First, I wanted to start by giving you some background of where I came from.
I'm a Staff Instructor for LinkedIn Learning and have completed over 70 courses in the library over the last few years. My specialty is front-end and full-stack development.
Before that, I was the Director of Multimedia for a company called Entravision, the larger franchisor of Univision TV Stations. They purchased a company where I worked where I built a network of radio station websites from the ground up for hispanic media in the East Coast.
I got my start on the web at Tribune Interactive, who owned the LA Times, NY Newsday, Chicago Tribune. I was a Senior Designer for their local flashship newspaper The Orlando Sentinel, I also built interactive projects, games and worked in the newsroom the Iraq War, Columbia disaster and the infamous hanging chad Bush/Gore election.
So, I have some experience building and managing a network of sites from a designer and developer perspective. I understand about design, analytics and building something from the ground up. At Entravision, we built and managed our own social platform and had radio streaming more than a decade ago.
Numbers
- 17,613 Followers
- Mostly Developers
- 9,161 Subscribers
- Apply newsletter
- 5000 the first week
- 9 Editions
- 935 Reactions
- 144 comments
- 18 LiveStreams
- 1 Podcast
- 10 Episodes
- Monthly Launch
- 2 Episodes
- Misc experiments
Here's some of my current numbers for the LinkedIn platform. I have over 17k followers. I have a highly focused audience targeting front end and full stack developers, which are the topics I cover at LinkedIn. I grew that from less than 1000 connections I had when I joined LinkedIn.
I recently started a weekly newsletter using the LinkedIn tools that has more 9k subscribers. So far, I've published 10 editions. I got about 5,000 subscribers of them the first week. It has about a 50% open rate. I've published nine editions which garnered 936 reactions and 144 comments.
Since I got access to LinkedIn Live, I've published 18 Live Streams. 10 episodes of a Podcast series called Not A Podcast with other LinkedIn Learning authors, I'm doing one regular monthly livestream called 'The Launch'. That's a 'Grand Opening' style celebration of a course release, I create events for the streams with hundredths of attendees and thousands of watches.
I've done lots of additional experimental livestreams like 'The Recap', which is a review of a Tech event like Github's last Universe conference as well livestream tips and Q&A episodes.
Getting
Started
- Joined with Lynda Acquisition
- Used LinkedIn for Resume
- Less than 1000 followers
- Started posting to feed semi-regularly
- 24 Newsletter articles
- 6950 reactions
- 584 Comments
- 113,974 Views
- Enjoyed some success with articles and engagement
When I joined LinkedIn with the Lynda acquisition, I didn't use it as a social platform.
Like many people, I saw it as a great place to host my resume, but not necessarily a place to engage with an audience. There were few tools besides the stream to engage.
At the time I had less than 1000 followers, but I realized that I needed to explore what the platform could do to connect with my audience and learn about how the platform could be leveraged for authors.
I got started by posting things to the platform irregularly.
I started posting Newsletter article, with some success, but it was inconsistent, so I stopped publishing regularly. My lowest article got 473 views, while my highest rated article got 28,526 views. Overall the effort seemed inconsistent and I couldn't find a
Articles were just opening up as a viable way to publish long form content, so I started writing articles with some irregular degree of success.
The Gold Mine
- Greater followers on LinkedIn
- 7300 Followers on LinkedIn
- 7200 Followers on Twitter
- Results
- Much higher engagement
- Better threading/editing
- Video vastly outperforms YouTube
- Example from Official Github Account
- YouTube: 2.3k views
- LinkedIn: 65,540
- My own videos get thousands of views
What really turned the corner for me is when a couple of years ago, I realized that my follower count at LinkedIn exceeded my Twitter numbers where I had about 7000 followers.
My posts on LinkedIn got a higher degree of engagement than anything I posted on twitter, so that really drove my adoption.
I was also able to have more meaningful conversations with better message threading and so help me...the ability to edit posts.
The other thing I noticed is how much better video performs on LinkedIn. Even though the tail is a lot shorter (the amount of time the video will show in people's timeline), video seriously outperforms what you can do on YouTube.
Take This LinkedIn Video from three weeks ago on Github Flavored Markdown. On YouTube, the video has 2.3k views. On LinkedIn the same video has 65,540 views.
LinkedIn was a goldmine. The audience is not only there, but waiting for someone to post meaningful content to engage with.
The secret was that I needed to give them reasons to engage with me and make content that made them want to come back.
The Content
Plan
- Post 2x/day weekdays
- Monthly/Weekly Stream
- Weekly Newsletter
- 1+ Video Tutorial weekly
- Engage with Polls
- Grow audience through connections and comments
- Experiment with Live Action
So I started to get serious and work towards a content plan to get used to publishing and figure out how to be successful in the platform.
I started by trying to post one thing per day and then when I found out how to be more efficent posting moved to two posts during weekdays, no weekend posting.
I experimented with a number of live streaming approaches and settled on a monthly special launch stream, although I am planning on moving to weekly streams as soon as I can fit it into the schedule.
I started and will continue to write a weekly newsletter called Apply, where I'm experimenting with the content type to speak more directly to my audience.
I'm creating an original video post each week with some developer tips. This requires that I do a lot of editing and graphics, but it's helping me figure out the workflow and what things resonate with my audience.
I'm also engaging daily with my audience by commenting, connecting and using the platform often.
I'm also experimenting with differet Live Action types to explore how best to utilize Live Action with our traditiona screen capture methods and also things like Github and Practice environments, Codepen, CodeSpaces, Interactivity.
Success
- Number of Followers
- Amount of Newsletter
Subscriptions - Seek high quality connections
- Number of
Shares/Acceleration - Meaninful comments
- Engagement: Not Likes
- Engagement: Likes
- Number of
I wanted to share a bit about the metrics I use to gauge success and how I go about growing my audience.
First of course is the amount of followers I have on the platform. Engagement is highly correlated to the amount of followers someone has on the platform, so the quickest way to increase my success is to gain followers.
In order to grow meaningful engagement, I look for opportunities to gain high quality connections. That means connections that engage with my content. The quickest way is to connect with people who already engage with my content, because that automatically creates a follower with someone who is likely to engage.
Here's what I consider a prospects who are potential high quality connections.
The action that has the highest value is a share. Sharing means someone my content so valuable to multiply it's reach. So if someone shares my content, I connect with them.
Then, I like meaningful comments that add to the conversation or create additional comments. I'll take kudos, but they're not as good.
Next is engagement that is not a like. It meaks they had to have a bit more effort than a like.
Finally a like is better than nothing, but it doesn't really have a ton of value.
I dont necessarily just follow everyone, but focus on people who perform high quality engagements.
Challenges:
Aggregation
- The more I post,
the harder it is to
find older posts - Posts have a usable tail of about two weeks long.
- After two weeks they have negligible traffic.
- Creators need tools to aggregate content into groups
- YouTube has Playlists, Facebook has pages. Aggregation is one of the keys to growth.
I wanted to share some of the challenges I face as a creator because they might help you reinforce some of the feelings I imagine you already have about improving the platform.
First is aggregation. The LinkedIn feed behaves a lot like the twitter feed. It's great for time sensitive content. When I post, my content has a lifetime tail of about one to two weeks long. After that my posts stop getting traction.
It's extremely difficult to find or aggregate posts that I've done in the past. Once you start posting regularly, your activity in posts gets so long that it's impossible to find...say a video you did more than a week ago.
So unless I create hashtags, I can't really relate content or create a content series. So unlike YouTube where I can create playlists. It's hard to generate content that is related to one-another.
Challenges:
Posting
- Posting to multiple places is challenging
- I have to create multiple posts if I want to post to the stream and a group...for example.
- I end up not posting to groups
- Articles have potential, but need attention. The technology hasn't grown significantly. We should seek to become the de-facto platform for publishing.
Posting to more than one place within LinkedIn is also extremely challenging. Let's say I release a new course or a new video and I want to post it somewhere other than the feed.
LinkedIn forces me to do separate posts for each destination. So If I want to add it to different groups that I feel would find them useful, I have to create separate posts. I know this is by design, but the consequence is that I just don't bother posting news or other content to groups.
Along with groups, innovation in articles as a platform has been stagnant. The ability to create newsletters is great, but the tool iteself hasn't changed in quite a while and it suffers from the same lack of aggregation tools as the rest of the content.
Challenges
- Posting to multiple places causes noise in the stream
- Posts should have destinations and not show up in your stream as a separate activity
- Just like we allow 5 hashtags in Creator mode, allow me to post to at least 2 groups in addition to the timeline.
- In addition to articles and posts in activity, give us video, polls, newsletters and other content types.
This also creates a separate issue and that's of noise to my stream. My activity causes my list of posts or activity tab to get extremely messy.
I feel like a post is a post, where that post is delivered is a destination, not a separate activity.
I know this is controversial, but I want the ability to post to at least two groups and have my stream reflect the post as a single activity.
In addition to giving us access to articles and posts in our activity, find ways to give us access to polls, videos, streams, events, newsletters and other content types.
Challenges:
Analytics
- Analytics lack a homepage. It is the lifeblood for creators.
- We have good analytics...all over the place.
- I'd like to see a centralized page for analysis
- I'd like data only LinkedIn can give us.
- What job titles
- skills engaged with
- People who watched my courses
- Pages has better analytics, but not available to individuals
Another huge struggle is Analytics. Creators live for analytics so they can gauge the success of their efforts. I actually love the LinkedIn analytics. They're insightful and I like some of the features not available in other platforms like the job titles and company listings, but they're not easy to find.
This is partly because the activity stream is so messy.
One place analytics is better is inside pages. I opened up a page so that I could see if the analytics were better there and sure enough, they are superior.
But pages aren't really designed around topics or to aggregate content. This is an opportunity to perhaps be more friendly to pages that are not companies. They could be topic related like Facebook and flourish to become communities.
Challenges:
Stream
- Promoting a livestream
on the newsletter is
challenging - Don't limit stream
to one week before the event - Few subscribers
as a percentage show up.- Events are not seen by
the rest of my audience,
just people who sign up. - Let me create
recurring events - Help translate my audience
from one event to another.
- Events are not seen by
I'm super excited to hear that our strategy is to become OneLinkedIn. That's because right now the individual features are pretty compelling, but don't work well together.
I'll give you an example. I wanted to promote a future live stream on my newsletter. So I created an event for the stream. But when you create a stream it's limited to one week before the event. I was publishing my newsletter on Tuesdays or Wednesdays and I wanted my stream to happen Wednesday afternoon.
That meant that I either had to wait until the day of the event to put it in my newsletter or change the day I released the newsletter to six days before the event.
When you create an event, you end up getting a lot of subscribers to the events, but few of them will show up. There is little relationship between the people that sign up for the event versus the people who show up. I think a lot of people are intersted in the content, but prefer to catch it on a replay instead of live.
I also wish there was a way to create recurring events. Right now I have to create individual events. When one event is finished, you can't translate that audience to another event.
 There's a way to get an email list of the attendees, but only if you're a page.
Access
- Give creators more access to audience
- Encourage different types of connections
- Let us leverage those connection types
- My audience isn't the people from work, it's the people who want to view my content
- Improve outreach when generating events by letting invite a job title or skill, or someone who's watched my courses.
Give creators access to their audience in different ways. I think newsletters is a great way to gather an audience, but increased notifications would be great.
You should also move towards a model that encorages different types of connections. The connection relationship is too limited. For example. I have a lot of work connections that arne't part of my audience. There's a lot of people who I work with, that wouldn't be remotely intersted about my next course release or what I had to say about React or Svelte.
When I want to promote an event, the categories for gaining users are too limiting. There should be a way to reach out to my followers by job title or what they're identified at being good at.
Big Impact
- Focus on giving creators access to metrics
- Give Creators a Homepage other than the profile
- Improve scheduling and exposure
- Make it easier to post and everywhere including groups
- Develop a strong audience Monetization strategy
- Focus on helping everyone gain an audience
One of the most valuable things you could add would be better metrics. Nothing drives engagement like measurable success. Figuring out what's successful is a lot of work.
Right now there are two homepages, the profile page for individuals and a business page for businesses. For creators, having their own space that is separate than what people associate with a job application is clearer.
Groups are great, but too hard to post into, get very spammy because anyone can just post to a group. I think perhaps you need to look at more of a facebook model with moderated groups. Those are suprisingly similar to Business Pages. They are probably close to the model that creators need with better traffic reporting.
Scheduling posts, a longer length to schedule livestreams, single posting.
Finally there's two reasons creators will post things. The first is to increase their klout and build an audience of followers that they can engage with to drive actions.
The second is that once their audience is big enough to monetize that audience to generate revenue. That's gotta be part of your long term plan, but audience first. Monetization later.

Detailed Description
The StereoFrame class provides a simple wrapper for a stereo audio frame.
This templatized structure lets you treat a block of individual samples as an interleaved stereo stream frame. This is most useful when used with the templatized data() functions of QAudioBuffer. Generally the data is accessed as a pointer, so no copying should occur.
There are some predefined instantiations of this template for working with common stereo sample depths in a convenient way.
This frame structure has left and right members for accessing individual channel data.
For example:
// Assuming 'buffer' is an unsigned 16 bit stereo buffer.. QAudioBuffer::S16U *frames = buffer->data<QAudioBuffer::S16U>(); for (int i=0; i < buffer->frameCount(); i++) { qSwap(frames[i].left, frames[i].right); }
See also QAudioBuffer::S8U, QAudioBuffer::S8S, QAudioBuffer::S16S, QAudioBuffer::S16U, and QAudioBuffer::S32F.
Member Function Documentation
StereoFrame::StereoFrame()
Constructs a new frame with the "silent" value for this sample format (0 for signed formats and floats, 0x8* for unsigned formats).
StereoFrame::StereoFrame(T leftSample, T rightSample)
Constructs a new frame with the supplied leftSample and rightSample values.
T StereoFrame::average() const
Returns the arithmetic average of the left and right samples.
void StereoFrame::clear()
Sets the values of this frame to the "silent" value.
StereoFrame &StereoFrame::operator=(const StereoFrame &other)
Assigns other to this frame.
Member Variable Documentation
T StereoFrame::left
This variable holds the left sample
T StereoFrame::right
This variable holds the right sample

Event
public struct Event : Encodable
An Event structure holds the information for a complete loggable event in your application.
You are not expected to construct an Event
yourself. Instead, use an EventBuilder
to set up your events. When you
tell the event builder to send the event, it creates an Event
for you and sends it to the event sink.
The only way to access the data in an Event
is by using an encoder to encode it.
Event
also includes some static properties that serve a few purposes:
- Provide some special
EventBuilder
s:current
andglobal
. - Allow configuring the behavior of events.
-
Encodes the data in the event to an
Encoder
.For encoders that care about the order of keys that are encoded, events encode fields in the following order:
Event.Key.error
, if presentEvent.Key.message
Any app-specific custom keys, sorted alphabetically.
Declaration
Swift
public func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws
Parameters
encoder
The encoder to use to encode the event data.
-
An event builder for fields that will be added to all future events.
The global event builder is not meant to be sent. Instead, any fields you include here will be automatically included when sending future events.
Declaration
Swift
public static var global: EventBuilder { get set }
-
The event that is currently in progress.
In most cases, this is the event that your app should be adding fields to. This allows uncoupled parts of your app to add relevant information to the current event without knowing who started it or when it will be sent.
The current event is the same throughout the entire app, so if you are performing background or concurrent tasks, you may want to avoid the current event for those and explicitly create and pass around an
EventBuilder
.EventBuilder
is a value type, so all changes to the current event should be made directly on this property, rather than trying to store the current event somewhere else.// good Event.current[.myField] = "foo" // bad var event = Event.current event[.myField] = "foo"
Declaration
Swift
public static var current: EventBuilder { get set }
-
A key identifier for the different fields you can add to events.
There are a few predefined keys for fields that will be handled automatically by the Events system, but most fields will be custom, defined by the needs of your application. You can add custom keys in extensions of
Event.Key
in your app:extension Event.Key { static let florbCount: Event.Key = "florb_count" }
Then you can use this key to set fields on events in your app:
Event.current[.florbCount] = florbs.count
The string literal you assign for the key will be the key used for the field when encoding the event.
Declaration
Swift
public struct Key : Hashable, CodingKey, ExpressibleByStringLiteral
-
The default event sink for events in your application.
New
EventBuilder
s will use this sink to send their events if no sink is passed in explicitly. In general, you probably don’t want to worry about keeping track of event sinks throughout your app, so when your app launches, you should set this to the sink you want to use.The default sink sends events to the default
os_log
logger. It is recommended when usingos_log
to define a custom subsystem and category specifically for logging your events. To do this, set this property to a custom instance ofOSLogEventSink
:Event.sink = OSLogEventSink(subsystem: "com.myapp.App", category: "events")
Declaration
Swift
public static var sink: EventSink

Delaware man charged after child overdoses on heroin
MILLSBORO, Del. (AP) - A Delaware man has been arrested after an 11-year-old overdosed on heroin.
State police say 31-year-old Gilbert Dickerson was charged last week with offenses including possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance.
News outlets report troopers responded Oct. 28 to a report of a child in cardiac arrest and found several small bags of heroin in the child’s pocket. A Friday police statement says about 30 bags were collected from the scene, and the child was hospitalized. The newspaper says the child’s status was unclear as of Saturday.
Police say an investigation determined the child got the heroin from one of Dickerson’s children. They say the child had found the drug in an Altoids container in Dickerson’s car and shared it, not knowing it was heroin.

Travellers set up camp in Southport again as council seek court order to remove them
Sefton Council's legal representatives are attending South Sefton Magistrates to remove the travellers from the site
by Kate LallyTravellers have once again set up camp in Southport .
A convoy of caravans appeared in Ainsdale at the weekend - before moving to the Esplanade in Birkdale .
Such illegal encampments are becoming a frequent occurrence for the resort town.
In June of this year, a group of travellers pitched up on Tulketh Street - just days after a group of seven caravans and associated vehicles parked up at the derelict Park and Ride site in Kew without a permit.
Figures obtained from a Freedom Of Information request last year showed travellers set up camp more than once a month in Sefton.
The ECHO understands the convoy of caravans and other vehicles has been in situ near Victoria Park since Wednesday.

This afternoon, Sefton Council 's legal representatives are attending South Sefton Magistrates to seek a court order to remove the travellers from the site.
A number of people living in the town have had their say.
Russell Kingsmill said: "I hope they have paid for their parking. One rule for one and another for another."
Tania Hibbert said: "It's about time they put barriers up [at the car park]."
Gerald Winnard said: "This reoccurring problem needs sorting out. I for one am sick of paying taxes to clean up mess left behind."
A spokesman for Sefton Council said: "Sefton Council is aware that a number of vehicles and caravans were parked illegally at a site in Ainsdale and have since moved to another part of the borough.
" Sefton Council is now following the correct legal procedures as set down in legislation to remove the vehicles.”

Restore Our Fortunes, O LORD
A SONG OF ASCENTS.
1 When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion,
we were like those who dream.
2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter,
and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then they said among the nations,
“The LORD has done great things for them.”
3 The LORD has done great things for us;
we are glad.
4 Restore our fortunes, O LORD,
like streams in the Negeb!
5 Those who sow in tears
shall reap with shouts of joy!
6 He who goes out weeping,
bearing the seed for sowing,
shall come home with shouts of joy,
bringing his sheaves with him.

One of the most obscure yet significantly debilitating diseases currently facing humanity is alzheimer’s disease (AD). In 2010, there were 4.7 million individuals with alzheimer, it is predicted that by 2050 the figure will be 13.8 million. To be able to effectively treat AD, it is important that we are able to identify it early in individuals. This study will focus on identifying biomarkers (features) that are strong indicators of progressive AD disease through supervised machine learning models. Then, the selected features will be used along with deep learning models to properly classify mild cognitively impaired (MCI) patients. In this research we aim to predict if a patient, believed to have MCI, is still considered cognitively normal (CN) or may already be showing potential signs of Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
In this research, we aim to study individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), specifically the early (EMCI) to late (LMCI) stages of the disease. The motivation for the research came from a challenge posted on Kaggle [2], by a UCL group focusing on Progression Of Neurodegenerative Disease (POND). The challenge is called The Alzheimer’s Disease Prediction Of Longitudinal Evolution (TADPOLE)**, which aims at the goal of predicting which subject currently believed to have mild cognitive impairment will likely turn into an alzheimer’s patient in a relatively short period of time (1-5 years).
The data provided for the challenge contains labels and detailed information for 3 main categories of patients:
From the set of data points for each patient, per disease category, a feature selection models such as Support Vector Machine (SVM) or cross validation techniques, will be used to extract a subset of important data points for each category, CN and AD. Once the subset of features is selected, a model will then be trained to classify patients into classes.
Particularly, we will be training a deep neural network (DNN), on the subset of features extracted, on patients that are cognitively normal or have Alzheimer’s disease. Once a model has been trained we will test the models classification accuracy with unlabeled mild cognitive impaired patient information. Training the DNN model on CN and AD patients was performed due to the fact that MCI patients may belong to other classifications of dementia that may not necessarily be due to AD.
Currently, diagnosing Alzheimer’s is typically done by ruling out other diseases or types of dementia first, there is no definite method to diagnose the disease until after death when the brain could be further analyzed. Due to the nature of how alzheimer’s disease is diagnosed, classifying MCI patients as AD subject is not trivial. Therefore, by training a model with CN and AD patients, the deep neural network will be able to have a better classification accuracy on the conversion of patients from MCI to AD.
ADNI provides a massive list of relevant biomarkers, for each individual, believed to have some potential influence on AD classification.
Two main categories of biomarkers include:
Amyloid beta proteins group together in clumps, forming plaque and blocking cell-to-cell signaling at synapses when they mis-fold. Beta-amyloid and tau levels can be measured using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or positron emission tomography (PET) scan, both of which we have values for in the data-sets, for each patient.
Damaged nerve cells can be measured by quantifying brain metabolism using fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET scan, or brain atrophy using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), both of which we have values for in the data-sets.
All the biomarkers/features of interest retrieved for analysis are detailed in Table 1 (Below) along with the key of the field belonging to that feature. Below are some of the measurements utilized in this research and the methods used to obtain them:
MRI images were preprocessed by a software called FreeSurfer [4], which is used to measure brain structural integrity and calculate measures of volumes, cortical thicknesses, and surface areas [6].
Obtain values regarding the brains white matter tracts, related to cells and axons. DTI is used to estimate the brains mean diffusivity, axial diffusivity, and radial diffusivity.
Scans are used to obtain average measurements of cell metabolism, AD affected individuals tend to show reduced metabolism.
Conducted by clinical experts, to assess a variety of skills such as general cognition, language, memory, vision, and many others. The cognition tests are used as an indicator of cognitive decline in AD individuals. If there is no decline in mental health, the next time taking the test, individuals should already remember how to approach it and thus perform better, however the opposite is seen in AD patients as one would expect with dementia.
The results of all tests are included in the data for each patient entry, in the data-sets provided, unless otherwise specified (D2 set doesn’t include diagnosis).

My email addy is<EMAIL_ADDRESS>In first grade I learned that 5 > 3 and 2 < 7. Maybe some arrows. 1 -> 2 -> 3. 9 <- 8 <- 7.
Triangles man! a^2 + b^2 = c^2
The above header should be an H2 tag. Now, for a list of fruits:
Let’s get crazy:
Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.
What about some code in a list? That’s insane, right?
In Ruby you can map like this:
['a', 'b'].map { |x| x.uppercase }
In Rails, you can do a shortcut:
['a', 'b'].map(&:uppercase)
Some people seem to like definition lists
Maybe you want to print robot to the console 1000 times. Why not?
def robot_invasion
puts("robot " * 1000)
end
You see, that was formatted as code because it’s been indented by four spaces.
How about we throw some angle braces and ampersands in there?

If you need to blame someone, the best way to do so is by quoting them:
I, at any rate, am convinced that He does not throw dice.
Or perhaps someone a little less eloquent:

Wu-Tang Clan-Themed Amusement Park Being Plotted In South Korea
by Mark ElibertThe Wu-Tang Clan has been having a major year celebrating the 25th anniversary of their iconic debut album Enter The Wu-Tang (36th Chamber). To go along with the string of concerts and the Hulu series Wu-Tang: An American Saga, the legendary collective is making even bigger moves with a proposed Wu-Tang Clan theme park possibly on the way.
In a feature for MassLive, Vice President of Wu-Tang Management Jimmy Kang revealed he is in negotiations with officials out in Seoul, South Korea to construct a Wu-Tang Clan theme park.
There’s no word on when the project will begin.
Kang grew up in Worcester, MA and worked his way around the music industry owning a few clubs and starting his own label STR8UP Entertainment and Records. He landed his position with the Wu-Tang Clan after he met the RZA, Freedom, Divine, and other members of the Clan in 2010. According to Kang, the theme park holds a special place in his heart as his family emigrated from South Korea when he was a child.
The iconic rap group’s influence has hit every corner of the globe and with this proposed theme park their influence will get stronger.

I am using emacs with the tramp extension to edit files on a remote server using ssh. I had to pull in various hacks to get it to work so I hope these notes might help others.
- Install Emacs for Windows and Cygwin with OpenSSH
- Upgrade emacs Tramp to the latest version. This is best done using Cygwin bash and Cygwin make (in particular ensure that --with-lispdir and --infodir options are set correctly when running configure).
- Handy tip -- leave the tramp build directory hanging around. When you next upgrade Emacs it's just
make install
(providing you use same directory names)
- Ensure that the Cygwin bin directory is on the Windows system path
- At the Cygwin bash prompt test ssh connection to your host
- Generate public/private keys and upload to the host
- Test ssh again to see if public authentication works (it did not for me because it had been disabled by the UNIX admin)
- Configure emacs to use tramp
(require 'tramp)
;;(setq tramp-debug-buffer t)
;;(setq tramp-verbose 10)
(setq tramp-auto-save-directory "c:\\tmp")
(setq tramp-default-method "plink")
- Start emacs and test connection (C-x C-f) using cygwin ssh/scp/sftp. If it works skip to step 14. I had issues so I continued with step 9
- Install the Putty program suite
- Test the connection using putty
- Ensure the Putty install directory is on the system PATH
- In emacs visit the host (C-x C-f) using the method 'plink'. If that does not work you are on your own (but see troubleshooting below)
- If the public keys worked in ssh then import your OpenSSH keys into Putty
- Use emacs bookmarks to save your common host locations
Troubleshooting:
- Getting rid of the "Couldn't find exit status of `test -e ..." error message by deleting ~/emacs.d/tramp file. This clears cached settings as documented at http://www.nabble.com/Emacs-tramp-troubles-with-old-Sun-tt13607411.html.
- If Tramp and Emacs does not work for you try these alternatives:
- Vim has a netrw plugin
- Both FileZilla and WinSCP have options to edit a file from the remote file system which then invokes a local Windows editor of your choice.
- jEdit has an ftp plugin that supports sftp and bookmarks
YMMV
With many thanks to all the folks on the web who documented their experiences and Michael Albinus on the tramp-devl mailing list.
