Component Apache HTTP
Edit (pull request)Apache HTTP server is a free software of the Apache software Foundation, created in 1995. Apache is the most popular web server on Internet and the web server of LAMP bundle.
Used version for this tutorial : Apache HTTP Server
This installation is based on Ubuntu distribution with apt-get command.
Definition
In the definitions folder, we need to write the TOSCA description of our component. It’s also a YAML file use to describe your component. The first line is the TOSCA definition version of the file. The second is a text description of the component. The tags icon is optional.
Namming / description
TOSCA assumes the existence of a normative base type set. The TOSCA type of Apache is the tosca.nodes.WebServer.
Properties
The Apache recipe has only two properties :
| Property | Usage | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| version | Mention the Apache HTTP Server version | Constant version in our example (v2.4). |
| port | Port where to expose the Apache HTTP service | The default port is : 80. You can change it of course without using an already used one. |
| document_root | The Root Directory of apache2 | The default value is : /var/www |
Lifecycle and related scripts
In the interfaces we defined the script used to create the node. In our case we just use the create operation, see the documentation to see all possible operations. In the artifact, we define the folder that contains the script. As we are using Groovy artifact, we defined this artifact at the end of file.
| Operation | Usage | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| create | Executed script to install your apache http server on the Compute | Through apt-get on ubuntu image |
| start | Start apache2 | Restart apache2 if it’s already launched |
Optional : To test this Apache recipe, you could create a simple Topology with a Compute and an Apache :
With a well configured PaaS Provider, you will have an Apache HTTP Server deployed on a server and ready to use.

NSPR-4.25
Introduction to NSPR
Netscape Portable Runtime (NSPR)
provides a platform-neutral API for system level and libc like
functions.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-9.1
platform.
Package Information
User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/nspr
Installation of NSPR
Install NSPR by running the
following commands:
cd nspr &&
sed -ri 's#^(RELEASE_BINS =).*#\1#' pr/src/misc/Makefile.in &&
sed -i 's#$(LIBRARY) ##' config/rules.mk &&
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--with-mozilla \
--with-pthreads \
$([ $(uname -m) = x86_64 ] && echo --enable-64bit) &&
make
The testsuite is designed for testing changes to nss or nspr and is
not particularly useful for checking a released version (e.g. it
needs to be run on a non-optimized build with both nss and nspr
directories existing alongside each other). For further details,
see the User Notes for nss at http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/nss
Now, as the root
user:
make install
Command Explanations
sed -ri 's#^(RELEASE_BINS =).*#\1#'
pr/src/misc/Makefile.in: This sed disables
installing two unneeded scripts.
sed -i 's#$(LIBRARY) ##'
config/rules.mk: This sed disables installing the
static libraries.
--with-mozilla
: This
parameter adds Mozilla support to the libraries (required if you
want to build any other Mozilla products and link them to these
libraries).
--with-pthreads
: This
parameter forces use of the system pthread library.
$([ $(uname -m) = x86_64 ] &&
echo --enable-64bit)
: The --enable-64bit parameter is
required on an x86_64 system
to prevent configure
failing with a claim that this is a system without pthread support.
The [ $(uname -m) = x86_64 ] test ensures it has no effect on a 32
bit system.
Contents
Installed Programs:
nspr-config
Installed Libraries:

Game Math and Geometry Library
Source Code
I am not interested in evangelizing people to use my library, mainly because I cannot guarantee to have any time to maintain it in the future. Therefore at current stage, I am not providing or maintaining build scripts for any platform. Perhaps this will change at some point, but for now, you should know what to do with the .cpp and .h files yourself.
The main reason for making this library public is to provide a source of documentation for the project environment I am working on. For others, I hope this library can be used as a source of algorithm snippets for anyone implementing these features in their own libraries. Feel free to copy-paste anything you find useful into your own projects.

The source code is hosted on Github at juj/MathGeoLib. If you are on Windows, download msysgit and TortoiseGit, and clone or fork the repository to get started.
Download
If you do not want to play around with git, you can also download a zipped version. The zip contains a copy of the git source tree. Probably the simplest way is to just embed the code files into your existing project, instead of creating any 3rd party library build steps for this library.

Sense of time pressure, people who spend more time on the road feel more hurried and stress.
A shorter distance to work means a shorter distance home, improving person wellness.
A job salary in proportion to its workload makes an employee feel appreciated.
A strong desire to work in a particular Company is a powerful moltivator.


As people track health, financial and social lives on apps, Sherbit automatically aggregates users' personal data to answer more complex questions. Instead of "How many steps did I take today," Sherbit users can ask "How does music affect how many steps I take?"
While in alpha phase, Sherbit asked our team to create a clear value proposition, gain user insight, and create an onboarding process.
Sherbit’s founders are the Robin Hoods in our data mining world. In today's data mining world, Sherbit envisions users empowered with their own data and understanding their behaviorial patterns. How does location affect my spending? What type of weather encourages the most exercise? or the best sleep?
However, even with powerful capabilities, Sherbit still needs to clarify how users will interact with the app and what data is most relevant. Were there enough userful takeaways? And, were the findings clear and actionable enough to use everyday?
Our team of three UX designers were excited to tackle this project.
To help answer the Sherbit team's questions, we kicked off a big research effort which included literature reviews, competitive analyses, user interviews and usability tests.
Coming fresh into the world of personal data tracking, our team found many rich insights from academic journals, articles, blogs and the Quantified Self movement.
Emotions ultimately dictate how we make decisions, no matter how much we deliberate over the data. A combination of emotion and data solicits the strongest decisive responses.
Tracking data immediately heightens consciousness of goals and behavior. Once a user sees progress, they will try exponentially harder to achieve their objective.
As with the Quantified Self community, most people only track behaviors if they have a goal in mind.
From our analysis, we realized that Sherbit is in the wild west of personal data tracking. No app is leading in this arena.
Along with a few apps we found, we compared a list of the top 50 most downloaded apps related to personal data tracking and saw:
The competitor with the most similar product was also in alpha development.
Competitors in the current market, like myFitness or Mint, track very siloed behaviors.
With only 9% of smartphone owners have wearables, apps are not very differentiated and have preliminary value propositions.
The user interviews were the juiciest part of our research process. For an app with such heavy personalization, gathering user insights was worth our due diligence.
Our team distributed an online survey to local universities and social platforms, like Reddit, Craigslist and Facebook. Gathering over 70 responses, we mapped out respondents according to how actively they engage in social apps, data tracking and goals setting.
Very engaged with social apps and tech. Uses data tracking out of interest in tech wearables.
Various engagment with social apps and tech. Very engaged with tracking personal data and setting goals.
Moderately engaged with social apps, tech and data tracking. Indicated regularly setting goals.
Very engaged with social apps and tech. Indicated interest data tracking though only moderately engaged with it.
We targeted users from each persona group to test our hypotheses, to learn how each persona group tracked goals and to see how they interacted with Sherbit's current structure. Our interview broke down into three parts: behavioral questions, a card sort and a usability test. Over a week, we interviewed over a dozen people, gathering a lot of insight.
"I don't have a specific goal. I set a budget on 'fun stuff' so I can feel okay about treating myself when I stay under budget."
"I would love to track something like chronic pain and discover what's causing it. It could be so many things, and tracking could help me see through the noise."
"I already knew I wasn’t getting enough sleep, and now this confirms that and visualises it – but it doesn’t do anything to do to me. . .it should mean something."
Recording interesting observations onto sticky notes, we arranged behavioral insights into an affinity map and usabilty notes onto printouts of current screens.
Overall themes were:
People use their phones to check for notifications and computers for longer errands. They have a high expectancy of quick, at-a-glance browsing.
Most people who track data, use systems that automatically input data, like Mint.com. A few manually input track their data. Otherwise, many say they mentally track and have a sense their behaviorial patterns.
Most goals were fueled by a sense of what they ought to be doing or what would reduce stress. These seemed tied to an emotive place where they can feel better about themselves.
The learning curve for this app is very high. Most people were reluctant to try and asked many questions. Once they tried, they could easily think of at least three more they'd like to create.
Most people ended up choosing one main datapoint, usually an emotive one like stress or mood, and correlated it other datapoints.
Across the board, people said that though the graphs were beautiful, they were ultimately difficult to explain.
There's a lack of interactivity. People kept tapping to find a data breakdown for the graph. They wanted to edit data for misinformation and to see data in different graphs.
A lack of actionable steps lost some people's attention. People are generally aware of their behaviors and would rather learn ways to change behavior.
Defining personas and design principles grounded us as we brainstormed and developed solutions. We used them to gather inspiration and to make strategic tough calls during the design development phase.
We highlighted characteristics and stories from our interviews to craft four distinct personas.
The first two have more uses cases and motives to use Sherbit, and they are most likely to be first adopters. The latter two personas will use Sherbit out of curiosity and will use as Sherbit gains more traction.
We took common uses cases from our user interviews to create 12 user journeys. This was incredibly helpful in fleshing out many painpoints we hadn't considered.
Based on the needs we heard from users, we established three guiding principles to anchor our ideation process:
Now that we had gathered insights and defined our personas, we needed to distill the common and varient needs we were solving for. Referencing our journey maps and use cases, our team listed out each persona's needs, desire and painpoint.
These notes were then condensed into nine common painpoints emerging across the persona groups. Now, our job was to sketch out ideas that help each persona address these painpoints.
We sketched out ideas on our own before sharing them with the group. Our pitches described which painpoint and persona we were solving for. These, again, were organized into a chart according to which painpoint and persona the idea solved for.
We voted on the top three solutions to explore further. When selecting ideas, I wanted to avoid band-aid fixes, focus on innovation and address the pressing faults within the app.
Pressed for time, each team member spearheaded one recommendation to develop into a wireframe. We would present and reiterate on our ideas as a group. Also, we created a recommendations document with a handful of promising ideas and sketches that didn't make the cut.
In the end, these were our three recommendations developed into wireframe form. While still in low-fidelity, they addressed user painpoints and communicated solutions to our client's challenges.
Our team decided that the onboarding was critical to lessen the learning curve. Users needed a basic overview and, most of all, a little hand holding. Our on-boarding process briefly describes the product benefits, walks users through making their first recipe and drops users off at the dashboard, the main screen of interaction.
Changing the dashboard was our biggest move. We needed a way to help users get the insights quickly as they check the app throughout the day or week.
Now, the dashboard is insight-driven. Users can design their dashboard with relevant, insight-focused data. If they are curious for more information, they can swipe further for detailed graphs and then again click into graphs for more information.
We also added more features to give users more control over their dashboard. They can delete, add and rearrange insights and graphs.
Also, we designed the dashboard to easily add pre-existing recipes relevant to their insight. This helps improve the reliability of the insight and educates users of different possible ways to manipulate their data.
We were tested our prototype with dozens of friends and colleagues to iterate and validate our user flow and microinteractions. Had we more time, I'd love to design out a high-fidelity prototype to test with potential users. This is a critical step that Sherbit's team will tackle.
Our clients loved it. They even called us three times after our presentation with kind words for our final deliverable.
Working on Sherbit has been an incredibly gratifying project. It was an honor to work with such a talented and ambitious client. Moreover, a researcher at heart, I enjoyed unearthing insights from talking and observing users.Within a short three week timeframe, we were able to give recommendations that address honest user needs and offer delightful experiences.
Sherbit was a big growing experience for me. If our team was to continue working on Sherbit, I would like to explore more of the ideas we brainstormed, take our product to a higher fidelity and perform much more user testing. I'd like to bring our prototype to each persona group to test our prototype.
All in all, I appreciated our client's investment in our research and our team's creativity and tenacity to deliver user centered recommendations.

According to prosecution, Sekar, 33, of Kamarajar Street in Azhagiyapandiapuram under Maanur police station limits, married Mahalakshmi of the same area in 2013. The family of the bride had given 10 sovereigns of gold ornaments and other household articles as dowry at the time of marriage.
However, Sekar and his family members tortured Mahalakshmi demanding more dowry. At one point, Mahalakshmi left her husband to live with the family of his brother Ramakrishnan, 35, living in the same area.
As this incident created enmity between Sekar and Ramakrishnan, Sekar, his father Ilaiyaraja, 57, brothers Periya Mariappan, 40 and Chinna Mariappan, 39, murdered Ramakrishnan even as he was standing in the Azhagiyapandiapuram bus stand on October 30, 2015. The police arrested all the four.
Fourth Additional Sessions Judge Vijayakanth awarded life imprisonment to Sekar, his father and brothers and imposed a fine of ₹ 5,500 each on Tuesday.


Christmas leftovers Spanish omelette recipe
by Angela HartnettThis Spanish omelette is an alternative to bubble and squeak, with the addition of eggs. The traditional Spanish omelette would have chorizo and red peppers and so on, but there’s no reason you can’t sweat a couple of onions off until they’ve got a good sweetness and then make it with leftover Christmas veg. Make sure you’ve got a deep frying pan and use plenty of oil and butter. Pep it up with garlic, or serve with horseradish.
Prep time: 10 minutes | Cooking time: 25 minutes
SERVES
Six
INGREDIENTS
- 50g butter
- 2 small onions, finely sliced
- 400g leftover cooked vegetables such as potatoes, parsnips, carrots, cut into even-sized pieces
- Pinch of dried chilli
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 8 eggs
- A handful of mixed chopped herbs such as chives, parsley and tarragon
METeasHOD
- Melt half of the butter in a large non-stick, ovenproof frying pan. Mine is 24cm across.
- Add the sliced onion and cook for 10 minutes until it is soft and starting to caramelise.
- Add the rest of the butter along with the vegetables and mix well with the onion and some seasoning.
- Add the chilli and garlic and cook for a further two minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the grill and beat the eggs together in a jug.
- Pour the eggs over the vegetables and cook over the hob so that the base of the omelette starts to set, then place the pan under the grill.
- Cook for five minutes or until the top is golden brown – check it’s done underneath by lifting the omelette carefully with a palette knife.
- I like it when the omelette is slightly runny in the centre. Serve immediately, scattered with fresh herbs.

This script is designed to modify the call to the QEMU emulator to support userspace vhost when starting a guest machine through libvirt with vhost enabled.
The steps to enable this are as follows and should be run as root:
Update the VM xml file using "virsh edit VM.xml"
3.a) Set the VM to use the launch script
Set the emulator path contained in the <emulator><emulator/> tags e.g replace <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-kvm<emulator/> with <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-wrap.py<emulator/>
3.b) Set the VM's device's to use vhost-net offload <interface type="network"> <model type="virtio"/> <driver name="vhost"/> <interface/>
Enable libvirt to access our userpace device file by adding it to controllers cgroup for libvirtd using the following steps
4.a) In /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf add/edit the following lines: 1) cgroup_controllers = [ ... "devices", ... ] 2) clear_emulator_capabilities = 0 3) user = "root" 4) group = "root" 5) cgroup_device_acl = [ "/dev/null", "/dev/full", "/dev/zero", "/dev/random", "/dev/urandom", "/dev/ptmx", "/dev/kvm", "/dev/kqemu", "/dev/rtc", "/dev/hpet", "/dev/net/tun", "/dev/<devbase-name>-<index>", "/dev/hugepages" ]
4.b) Disable SELinux or set to permissive mode
4.c) Mount cgroup device controller "mkdir /dev/cgroup" "mount -t cgroup none /dev/cgroup -o devices"
4.d) Set hugetlbfs_mount variable - ( Optional ) VMs using userspace vhost must use hugepage backed memory. This can be enabled in the libvirt XML config by adding a memory backing section to the XML config e.g. <memoryBacking> <hugepages> </memoryBacking> This memory backing section should be added after the <memory> and <currentMemory> sections. This will add flags "-mem-prealloc -mem-path <path>" to the QEMU command line. The hugetlbfs_mount variable can be used to override the default <path> passed through by libvirt.
if "-mem-prealloc" or "-mem-path <path>" are not passed through and a vhost device is detected then these options will be automatically added by this script. This script will detect the system hugetlbfs mount point to be used for <path>. The default <path> for this script can be overidden by the hugetlbfs_dir variable in the configuration section of this script.
4.e) Restart the libvirtd system process e.g. on Fedora "systemctl restart libvirtd.service"
4.f) Edit the Configuration Parameters section of this script to point to the correct emulator location and set any addition options
The script modifies the libvirtd Qemu call by modifying/adding options based on the configuration parameters below. NOTE: emul_path and us_vhost_path must be set All other parameters are optional Configuration Parameters

Take everything you need to do a deployment, the application itself and the entire process to deploy it: command-line tools, configuration files, secrets, and bash scripts to glue it all together. Package that into a versioned bundle distributed over standard Docker registries or plain tgz files.
Now anyone can install your application without deep knowledge of your deployment process, or following a step-by-step deployment doc, regardless of the tech stack.
Porter is never a replacement for an existing tool. Think of it as doing extra nice things on top of what those great tools already do! Below are some reasons why working with bundles with the tools embedded inside is helpful vs. using the same tools standalone.
Package everything you use to deploy in a single artifact that can be easily distributed over registries and across air gapped networks.
JIT secret injection, immutable artifacts, and container security are just some of Porter's security features.
Save time because the bundle contains the exact version of your deployment tools. Users don’t need to find and install tools or switch between versions.
View rich metadata about a deployment. Run porter explain to quickly see how to customize an installation with parameters, what credentials are needed by the bundle. There is no need for detailed installation documentation.
Reduce the operational knowledge required to manage an application. Often deployments involve multiple tools, such as terraform, helm, kubectl; all glued together with bash scripts. Bundles abstract away the details of a deployment, and provide a consistent set of commands to deploy any application.
Manage deployments securely as a team. Porter uses secure just-in-time credential injection and remembers the parameters last used to deploy. Teammates don’t need to hunt down the proper values themselves, or copy sensitive credentials into local environment variables or files. Secrets remain secure in a secret store such as Hashicorp Vault or Azure Key Vault.
"It used to take a day for the dev team to roll out one to two environments. We’ve gone from that to the ability to parallelize our deployment pipeline to target thousands of instances overnight at the push of a button. The potential cost savings are significant given the scale we're talking about."

Porter is a cloud-agnostic tool that can work anywhere and with any tool, but in order to have great support for these clouds and tools, custom-made mixins are best.
Is there a tool that you would like to use in a bundle that doesn't have a Custom Mixin

Assignment 1
Mole Mash
- - Added code to reduce the timer interval whenever the player hits the mole, making the game harder for more skilled players.
- - Added a label to display the timer interval so this can be monitored
Quiz Me
- - Displayed possible answers in a list; the user can then pick a choice from that list.
- - The list is context-sensitive - it switches from names of players to numbers depending on what the question is.


GOJU
Copyright (c) 1986 Christiane Frankenstein
Goju is played on the following board and setup:
- TURN - At each turn, each player must move one friendly stone.
- A stone may slide over a horizontal or vertical line of empty cells.
- A stone may also move to an adjacent empty cell over a diagonal line (so, no diagonal sliding).
- Restrictions:
- No jumps allowed (either over friend or enemy stones).
- A stone may not end its movement between two enemy stones if the three stones are in the same line.
- The only valid movements are those over the board lines.
- Stones capture by custodian, i.e., if after the stone movement, an enemy stone is between two friendly stones is captured.
- GOAL - Wins the player that (a) occupies the four corners of the central square, or (b) captures at least 11 enemy stones.
An example If the marked white stone slides to the green dot, it will capture the black stone.
If it was Black's turn, he could not move that same black stone to the left because of the restriction that forbids a stone moving between two enemy stones at the same line.
Two variants from the original rules: (i) a stone may move between two enemy stones, if that movement results on a capture of at least one of those stones, (ii) custodian capture of a line of one or more connected stones.
I wish to thank Bernard Wack for sending me information about this game.


nomisr
is for accessing UK official statistics from the
Nomis database through R.
Nomis contains data from the Census, the Labour Force Survey, DWP
benefit statistics and other economic and demographic data, and is
maintained on behalf of the Office for National Statistics by the
University of Durham.
The nomisr
package provides functions to find what data
is available, the variables and query options for different datasets and
a function for downloading data. nomisr
returns data in tibble
format. Most of the data available through nomisr
is based
around statistical geographies, with a handful of exceptions.
The package is for demographers, economists, geographers, public health researchers and any other researchers who are interested in geographic factors. The package aims to aid reproducibility, reduce the need to manually download area profiles, and allow easy linking of different datasets covering the same geographic area.
nomisr
is available on CRAN:
install.packages("nomisr")
You can install the development version nomisr
from
github with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("ropensci/nomisr")
nomisr
nomisr
contains functions to search for datasets,
identify the query options for different datasets and retrieve data from
queries, all done with tibbles
, to take
advantage of how tibble
manages list-columns. The use of
metadata queries, rather than simply downloading all available data, is
useful to avoid overwhelming the rate limits of the API.
There are nomisr
vignette introduction
has details on all available functions and basic demonstrations of their
use.
The example below demonstrates a workflow to retrieve the latest data on Jobseeker’s Allowance with rates and proportions, on a national level, with all male claimants and workforce.

Pokemon the First Movie (1999) 75m
A POKEMON PRIMER! MYSTERIES REVEALED TO THE UNINITIATED! AND SOMETHING ABOUT THE MOVIE!
I love the idea of middle-aged film critics who have paid their dues, worked their way up the ladder, and secured their credibility now finding themselves in child-packed audiences watching a cartoon derived from a phenomenon that they find incomprehensible, all the time aware that they have to write about it afterwards. The dilemma: this is a product with a very specific target audience. To review it from a purely adult perspective would be uncharitable. To leave its verdict in the hands of the ten-year-olds it was pitched at would bring only the conclusions that "it sucked" or "it was cool", or perhaps a little of both, if the ten-year-old in question had any future vocation as a film critic.
I'm not a fan of POKEMON but I find it more interesting and enjoyable than most other cartoons that are around, although it's hard to tell what may have been 'improved' in translation (the English-language version is crammed with puns). For a start, the episodes are not stand-alone entries, but follow a story arc that enables minor developments to enter the growing storyline unobtrusively (this is why I imagine many adults find any randomly-tuned episode mystifying: POKEMON the series makes no apologies for the fact that you need to have been watching from the beginning - but isn't this true of many adult television series' also?). The characters, too, are a little more complicated than…well, let's say COW AND CHICKEN, why not? The central character, Ash, is overconfident, mulish, and has an obsession with Pokemon (a portmanteau of 'pocket monsters') that is destined for a major dysfunction. Ash's friend Brock, meanwhile, has a fetish with women in uniform that's downright embarrassing, leaving their female companion Misty to provide the sole voice of reason (their adversaries, a trio known as Team Rocket, are just as single-minded but far more entertaining). One can uneasily draw comparisons to the boy hero of this series and the Pokemon-crazed viewers watching him: each show begins with the signature tune "gotta catch 'em all", as simple a philosophy as you'd ever need when you're ten years old, and most likely the main reason this show has become so popular. Despite its complex narrative, the core purpose - to find Pokemon and train them - is what drives its appeal. Forming a roster of creatures from the Nintendo game upon which the cartoon was based, POKEMON offers its followers the irresistible urge to *collect*, either vicariously through Ash's adventures or more practically for a few bucks at K-Mart. The whole collecting bug doesn't just stop at the Pokemon themselves: once caught the creatures are then used as pawns in staged combat to aid Ash's further obsession to collect combat badges (this show has the moral stance of cockfighting) which in turn will allow him to enter a higher level of arena in the Pokemon League, and so on and so on.
It may be that the values of POKEMON's protagonist have tapped into the unconscious of a generation that compulsively watches the show and codifies its critters without really knowing why. This at least is a more valid platform for criticism against the show than its supposed violence. Unlike POWER RANGERS and NINJA TURTLES and other intense (though short-lived) television crazes, POKEMON does not promote rough play in the schoolyard. In fact, any kid wanting to emulate the combat routines of their favorite Pokemon is going to have their work cut out for them. Most of these monsters are just plain dorky and their attacks, reminiscent of the D&D role-playing game, diverse to the point of absurdity.  When it's time for the real fighting to get underway it usually involves a group of Pokemon hurling lightning bolts, water cannons, and flamethrowers at each other. It sounds lethal, and it probably is - but Pokemon don't fight to the death. At least not intentionally. At least not in any scenario we'll ever get to see.
But now from the small screen to the big one, and where does this leave the movie? It's the same, but a little different. The candy colors of the TV show have gone, overwhelmed by shadows and voids. The tone is less frivolous, so gone too are the opportunities for the often hilarious combination of Team Rocket to play out their hapless schemes. As villains, they are outclassed by the newest and most powerful addition to the Pokemon catalogue, a genetically-created creature called Mewtwo. Unlike its kin, Mewtwo is a figure of evil, more of the Manga mold than Pokemon, and the film is slanted accordingly. It's an interesting move of the film-makers because it positions POKEMON: THE FIRST MOVIE as a 'safe' introduction to a more adult form of Japanese animation, as if they are aware that their audience is growing older and that they must grow with it. Such themes synchronize with another significant element of the show, which in itself grew from simple beginnings like computer games and playing cards: Pokemon evolve from cuddly pets to more fearsome (but still tame) variations. This is usually accomplished unexpectedly in the heat of battle and takes but a few moments, as if a hormonal rush has given them the growth spurt to end all spurts. You can get as psychoanalytical about this as you want, but bear in mind that Ash's most precious creature, Pikachu, is unlikely to ever evolve into its mature counterpart. As strongly connected as they are to each other, Pikachu and Ash will always be children, never 'evolving' or growing out of their play-fight universe. It's about time they were shown a darker side of their world this time around, even if it has to bear forth the clumsy revelation that "Fighting Is Wrong!".
POKEMON isn't great, but it isn't bad either. Regular viewers will appreciate the in-jokes (e.g. "Who's that Pokemon?") and first-timers shouldn't have any problem keeping up with the story. The animation is serviceable, although not as eccentric as in the television series, and there are a couple of exciting action sequences involving a storm at sea and a panicky chase in a laboratory. There's also the rare appearance of Mew, the much sought-after Pokemon that was circulated among a small percentage of the Nintendo games - I have a feeling that this movie will definitely boost his popularity. Curious and playful, this powerful kitty will probably give even Pikachu a run for his money as the cartoon's unofficial mascot. After all, he is colored a newborn pink, emerges from an embryonic bubble in the ocean, and is even less likely in danger of ever growing up.

Andrew Ross Sorkin, author of Too Big to Fail
November 16, 2010
New York Times columnist and author, Andrew Ross Sorkin, has been described as the most famous financial journalist of his generation. A leading voice on Wall Street and corporate America, his New York Times bestseller, Too Big to Fail, was the first true, behind-the-scenes, moment-by-moment account of how that financial crisis developed into a global tsunami.
The Economist, The Financial Times, and Business Week all named Too Big To Fail one of the best books of the year. The book was published by Viking October 20, 2009. The book was adapted as a movie by HBO Films and premiered on HBO on May 23, 2011. The film was directed by Curtis Hanson, and the screenplay was written by Peter Gould.
Praise for Too Big to Fail
Vigorously reported, superbly organized...for those of us who didn't pursue MBAs and have the penny-ante salaries to prove it.
Julia Keller, Chicago Tribune
Sorkin's prodigious reporting and lively writing put the reader in the room for some of the biggest-dollar conference calls in history. It's an entertaining, brisk book.
Paul M. Barrett, The New York Times Book Review
The cast of the movie: Too Big to Fail
- William Hurt as Hank Paulson
- Paul Giamatti as Ben Bernanke
- Billy Crudup as Timothy Geithner
- Edward Asner as Warren Buffet

(powder / crystals) |
After smoking 5-MeO-DMT a couple of times, I had been wanting to insufflate it, having heard and read so many fantastical things, ranging from tortuously frightening experiences to heavenly bliss. Finding myself rather free of obligations and at home alone on a Friday afternoon, I decided to give it a shot. My use of psychedelics is primarily for therapeutic purposes, although no doubt, they've provided for some good recreational times as well in the past. Iíve been feeling kind of down on myself lately, so today I wanted to dig deep and see what might be bothering me.
Unlike my older batch of 5-MeO-DMT, which was a creamy colour, this sample was bright snow white, almost sugary. Crisp, evenly sized, tiny crystals. I cut up 5 mg on the dining room table, weighed with concentration and diligence on my milligram scale, and snorted it up my left nostril with trepidation at 2:10 PM. The experience unfolded as follows:
2:13 - First alerts, and rapidly moving to a plus one. The nasal burn is rather nasty, but not quite as ferocious as 2C-E. It smells like DMT but a lot milder ... which I am thankful for. Strangely enough, the smell of DMT always reminds me of my Grade 3 teacher, Mrs. Simpson, who suffered from an insane and disagreeable case of halitosis. She could make eyes water at 20 paces.
Wow, after only five minutes I am feeling sleepy and relaxed, dreamy, confused. My nose hurts. My head feels full, of what Iím not quite sure ... it's time to lay down.
2:20 - I lay on the couch, one eye cocked strategically towards the painting on the wall, relishing in the fact that the pain in my nostril is subsiding. I'm still feeling very lightheaded, dizzy and disoriented. The come-up has been a little rough, rocky, but I've felt worse on various other substances. I'm twitchy, and points on my face are spasming sporadically; my lips, cheek, eye lid ... it's a little distracting. I notice that despite my amped-up condition, my heart is beating normally.
I drag myself up to write some notes, fighting the urge to do nothing. Typing is easy ... almost easier than usual ... which really is strange because I feel totally disconnected and disoriented but my fingers seem to be working quite well. The rest of my body feels like it is immersed in agave syrup. Weird ... I feel a sting on the top of my head where I had an acupuncture needle inserted a few hours ago.
There is not much happening visually, but things do look different, similar to the way things look when I stand up too fast and feel faint, but I don't feel faint. Not much in the way of closed eye visuals. I am listening to Boards of Canada, which I must recommend for psychedelic traveling by the way. Music doesn't sound better or worse ... just the same. I feel a little sick and shaky, but not too bad. Iím still very sleepy and dreamy, so I go to lie down on the couch again.
2:30 - Things have definitely peaked and I'm slowly returning to the mundane condition of everyday reality. I still feel dreamy and drugged, but nothing noteworthy is happening and this is something of a disappointment because I am in the mood to be moved. I consider that going deeper wouldn't be such a bad thing, and I ponder doing more.   Within 3 minutes I'm coming back up ... harder ... yes, much harder this time. I stagger to the couch, and flop myself down, a warm, tingling flush settling across my skin from head to toe. Time passes.
2:57 - Whoa ... coming back to earth ... that was pretty intense. I'm able to type at this point but it would have been quite challenging five minutes ago. I convey the experience as follows:
I found myself swirling through a dreamy, squishy, reality-bending place ... the Boards of Canada providing the perfect backdrop to the experience and the music has begun to merge with all of my senses. This is unlike any other psychedelic ... it's very physical, I'm in a meat grinder, my body twisting and churning through space. Although that metaphor sounds scary and uncomfortable, it's neither; I'm mostly indifferent to the physical sensations. There's a great deal of movement in my visual field, but there's little or no colour, a monochrome morphing multi-scape. Twisting and turning geometric shapes dominate. But that raises the point that these arenít really visuals so much as visions. I'm not seeing with my eyes as it were, but rather I'm seeing with my mind's eye.
My autonomic nervous system is depressed, and I must repeatedly remind myself to breathe. Most interesting is that through all of this, there is a sober part of me, an observer, sitting nearby and able to think with perfect clarity. It's as if I'm split in two, one part of me swirling through a haze of obscurity while the other half of me sits by like a semi-concerned psychoanalyst, one leg crossed over the other, scribbling notes in a small white notebook. This sober self encourages me to stay calm through what at times are challenging moments, what at times are slightly frightening. Although immersed at this point, I am still unsatisfied ... there are many strange feelings but nothing of any meaning, nothing that amounts to anything more interesting than a detached, disembodied delirium.
3:06 Ė I return sluggishly to the computer to type, which again, I find surprisingly easy to do. My head is swimming, but 3 of my 8 fingers accurately dance across the keyboard, punching out words with lightning speed. I have minor open eye visuals, not unlike the onset of DMT, where colours are brighter, and everything is clearly outlined and plastic looking. Pixelated. I feel anaesthetized to a degree, but there is quite a lot of tension and pain throughout my body, which is not unusual for me, so I stand up to stretch my achy muscles. I hang limply, bent at the waist and release much of the tension, feeling a much needed pull through my legs, lower back and between my shoulder blades. It is at this moment that some very therapeutic effects begin:
Indeed, I suffer from chronic pain, and I begin to see that it is at least partially a manifestation of my inner psychological unrest. This idea comes to me with great clarity and I realize I am not taking an active enough role in dealing with my pain. I should be exercising more, and perhaps meditating to achieve deeper states of relaxation. I then think of an employee of mine who works very hard, and I realize I probably don't give him the positive feedback he deserves. I take him for granted. I scurry to the kitchen to write myself a reminder note to rectify this when he returns from vacation. I also realize that my work wardrobe is getting shabby. In an effort to minimize my impact on the earth, I try to get the most mileage as possible out of my clothes, but I probably need to bite the bullet and get some new ones. For all the work I do to minimize my impact on the earth, perhaps I can afford myself this small token of self-appreciation.
Yes! What mind medicine! Thereís more, but I'll save you from the personal details.
I decide I really should do this more often.
I have the munchies.
3:48 - I've been on a linear easy-going come-down for the past 45 minutes, and spent this time satisfying my munchiness with an evil bowl of Doritos and pondering my life condition. I feel no ill effects as the drug departs my body, as I would for sure if I were coming down from say, 2C-E. I am almost down to baseline, and I return to my office work with renewed vigor. I take a break to stroll off down the road to pick up my mail and talk about a movie with a very good friend on the telephone. The sun is bright and warm on this fine spring day in Shpongleville.
4:30 Completely straightened out and no come-down to speak of; no tension, no pain, no jitters, no lack of appetite, no cracked-out feeling I usually get from psychedelics Ö I feel wonderful and giddy. I begin to prepare a homemade pizza for my love, who is returning from work shortly. I smile reassuredly to myself as I work. Iím happy and excited to share my experience with her.
Conclusion:
This definitely lived up to all of my expectations. Although it left many questions unanswered, 5-MeO-DMT provided great therapeutic benefit, and I look very forward to doing it again soon. This was not a recreational experience for me. I couldnít label it as fun at all, but it was rewarding and enlightening. I donít suspect the DEA is particularly concerned with this one. The strange, intense and sometimes uncomfortable effects of this material will make its use self-limiting for sure. File this one under ďMedicineĒ.
No doubt, 5 mg was not enough. 10 mg was adequate, but I could have gone deeper, and next time will increase my dose to 7+7. Splitting the dose was a good idea. I think it smoothed out the come-up somewhat and allowed me to transition into the deeper experience with greater ease. I have no doubt that in larger doses, this medicine could serve me with the terror I have read so much about, and at times in the past felt. The ominous power of 5-MeO-DMT is well understood by this meek and humble traveler. I will proceed with great caution and respect.
I can only thank a higher intelligence (God?) for providing these gateways to higher consciousness.

SPI¶
The serbus.SPIDev
class provides an API for interfacing with standard GNU/Linux spidev devices. It is instantiated with a bus number corresponding to the spidev device file it will use - to communicate with devices on the SPI bus connected to /dev/spidev0.X you could create the instance bus = serbus.SPIDev(0)
. The read/write methods then take a chip select as their first argument, so to read a byte from a device on chip select 1 of spidev0 (/dev/spidev0.1) you would call bus.read(1, 1)
.

Note: Will only write up to a maximum of 4096 bytes.
Clock Modes¶
The clock_mode parameter passed to setClockMode()
tells the SPI kernel driver how to drive the clock signal. The SPI spec allows four possible clock configurations, and the required mode for a particular device will be given in its datasheet (sometimes explicitly, but often just shown visually in an SPI timing diagram). The possible modes are:
| clock_mode | clock idle state | clock edge data is captured on |
| 0 | low | rising edge |
| 1 | low | falling edge |
| 2 | high | falling edge |
| 3 | high | rising edge |
Examples¶
These are a few examples of using the SPIDev object. They will only work if you have the proper hardware connected to the system running them and your SPI kernel driver loaded. Depending on the system there may be additional required setup as well, such as configuring pin multiplexers on embedded GNU/Linux systems like the BeagleBone Black.
Reading data¶
This example shows how to read a single word from an SPI device. It is not specific to any particular device.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 | import serbus
# The chip select connected to the slave device:
cs = 0
# Create a SPIDev instance for interfacing to /dev/spidev0.x devices:
bus = serbus.SPIDev(0)
bus.open()
# Set bus configuration:
bus.setMaxFrequency(cs, 1000000)
bus.setBitsPerWord(cs, 8)
bus.setClockMode(cs, 0)
bus.setCSActiveLow(cs)
bus.setMSBFirst(cs)
# Read a single 8-bit word from the device:
data = bus.read(cs, 1)
print "word received: {:x}".format(data[0])
bus.close()
|
AD7390 digital-to-analog converter¶
This example shows how to control an AD7390 12-bit SPI DAC (digital-to-analog converter).
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 | import serbus, time
# The SPI bus and chip select the AD7390 is connected to:
spi_bus = 1
cs = 0
# /dev/spidev1.0
bus = serbus.SPIDev(spi_bus)
bus.open()
# Set bus configuration, as described in the AD7390 datasheet:
bus.setMaxFrequency(cs, 1000000)
bus.setBitsPerWord(cs, 16)
bus.setClockMode(cs, 3)
bus.setCSActiveHigh(cs)
bus.setMSBFirst(cs)
try:
while True:
# Ramp up from 0V to full-scale:
for i in range(0, 2**12, 100):
bus.write(cs, [i])
time.sleep(0.01)
# Ramp down from full-scale to 0V:
for i in range(2**12-1, 0, -100):
bus.write(cs, [i])
time.sleep(0.01)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
bus.close()
|
The AD7390 requires an active high chip slelct signal on its LD pin, and because it uses 12-bit values its word size in larger than the default 8-bits of many SPI modules - both of these are easy set with the included methods.

Local author says Vancouver has never and never has been, a 'no fun city'
by John AckermannSummary
This week on 1130 Bookshelf, NEWS 1130 speaks to Aaron Chapman about his new book
Chapman, is quick to dismiss any talk of Vancouver ever having been a "no fun city"
VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) – In Vancouver After Dark: The Wild History of a City’s Nightlife, Aaron Chapman goes back to the very beginning.
“Vancouver itself is, and always has been, very well-placed,” he points out, as Vancouver was, and still is, a city where many acts like to start their tours.
“This was sort of known as ‘tune-up city’ going back to like when the Marx Brothers used to bring a live show to the Orpheum Theatre,” he explains.
“In particular, in the 1960s, places like the Cave and Isy’s Supper Club, Oil Can Harry’s, these were all places where some of the nightclub acts of the day would do their shows.”
Vancouver After Dark is Chapman’s fourth book.
“Definitely the book has more in common with the books on The Penthouse and The Commodore that I’ve done. Those places are still standing, of course, but there’s a litany of clubs over the years that are gone and everybody has a favourite sort of nightspot that they used to go to that isn’t around anymore.”
For some, that may be places like Luvafair or Richard’s On Richards.
LISTEN: Vancouver After Dark
However, Chapman is quick to dismiss any talk of Vancouver ever having been a “no fun city” or of the golden age of the city’s club scene truly being over.
“Everybody has their own concept of what the glory days were and the funny thing is, the glory days move with every generation,” he argues.
“Now, there have been people who have wanted to shut down the party, but, at the same time, there were always a sort of a smarter, more clever class of people that managed to get around that.”
These days, while high land values make club space more scarce and the players more corporate, Chapman remains hopeful.
“Will new clubs open? I’m sure they will. Do you have to be smarter than ever to run that business? You sure do.”
Richly illustrated and lovingly told, look for Vancouver After Dark: The Wild History of a City’s Nightlife from Arsenal Pulp Press.


I am a motivated, self driven worker who thrives under pressure and completing tasks on time with precision. I have had an affinity for computers ever since I first laid my fingers on a keyboard. Graduating from an avid gamer, self taught builder, and security enthuasiast, computers have always peeked my interest.
I am 32 years young, a father of 3 amazing kids, and have the worlds greatest girlfriend. When not at work or playing with my kids, I'm in front of a screen and keyboard. Over the years I have built various computers from scratch. I have troubleshooted PC problems for family ranging from a simple restart to editing registry files. My passion for cyber security fuels my decision to choose a career in web developement. I hope to one day obtain my CEH as well as other certifications. The phrase "Google it" is so often and widely used. The web directly links your work and creativity to the world at incredible speed and accessibility. Possessing the skills to reverse engineer a website has huge advantages when deciphering (un)secure code. I wanted to be apart of the World Wide Web and see my work after someone has said "Google it."
