i. CRONOS ii. DREAM LOVER iii. FEAR OF A BLACK HAT iv. IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU v. NORTH vi. RED ROCK WEST vii. THE SHADOW
CRONOS ======
Mildly diverting Mexican horror film about an antique dealer who stumbles upon the Cronos Device--a 400-year-old device capable of bestowing immortality, among other nasty things. Said dealer is subsequently pursued by the nefarious nephew (Ron Perlman) of a terminally ill industrialist.
This very stylish film from director Guillermo del Toro won both the Critic's Week Grand Prize at Cannes and the Mexican Academy Award for Best Picture. The occasional nods to David Cronenberg are fun, but the story is both too slow and too simple to keep your butt from joining the legions of the dead.
Grade: B
DREAM LOVER ===========
Intriguing psychological drama about a super-successful young architect (James Spader) on the rebound who meets, marries, and ultimately misjudges his so-called "dream lover" (Madchen Amick from TV's "Twin Peaks"). Plot twists give plenty of pause, but the BF (believability factor) is undercut by an awful make-up job that leaves the leads looking way-too glamorous for this film.
Great fun for newlyweds. Not.
Grade: B
FEAR OF A BLACK HAT ===================
Third-rate SPINAL TAP spoof of ficitious rap group N.W.H. The jokes are okay, but writer/director/star Rusty Cundieff (HOUSE PARTY 2) paints a terribly unflattering portrait of rappers by embracing the very values that he's heckling.
FEAR OF A BLACK HAT has a couple great gags--including the hilarious explanation of why "the butt" is like society--but the characters spend too much time pulling guns on each other to be truly funny.
Lousy sound editing.
Grade: C-
IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU ======================
Dreadfully dull romantic comedy about a Big Apple beat cop (Nicholas Cage) who tips a waitress (Bridget Fonda) two million dollars (from a lottery ticket that he split with her). The atmosphere (New York as New York) is great and Fonda is uniformly appealing, but Cage's role is so ill-defined that he's neither a decent foil to Fonda nor a solid center to the story.
Director Andrew Bergman once airlifted a planeload of flying Elvises (Elvii?) in HONEYMOON AND VEGAS. And wrote THE IN-LAWS. Rent those instead.
Grade: C-
NOTE: Film is third-tier on the Imitation Romantic Comedy scale, way behind SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE (second-tier) and not even close to WHEN HARRY MET SALLY (top tier).
NORTH =====
Woof! Rob Reiner's first dog of his directing career stars Elijah Wood as a well-to-do eleven-year-old who decides that he's tired of his unappreciative parents. The inexplicably named North finds a lawyer, declares himself a "free agent," and begins traveling the world for a pair of "perfect" parents.
The super-huge cast is a super-waste. NORTH stars Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bruce Willis, Jon Lovitz, Alan Arkin, Dan Aykroyd, Reba McEntire, Faith Ford, John Ritter, and, get this, Kathy Bates, Graham Greene, and Abe Vigoda (!) as a trio of Eskimos. Yow! Believe it or not, only Willis emerges unscathed and that's no small feat from a man who has buried more than one movie himself!
Frankly, nearly everything that can go wrong in this film, does. Period. NORTH is not funny; NORTH is not charming; NORTH isn't even interesting.
Don't. Waste. Your. Time.
Grade: D-
RED ROCK WEST =============
Low-key, low-budget thriller about an out-of-work oilworker (Nicholas Cage) mistaken for a hit man while drifting through a small Wyoming town. The quadruple-cross plot has Cage agreeing to kill a man's wife (Lara Flynn Boyle), agreeing with *her* to kill her husband (J. T. Walsh), and running into the *real* hitman (Dennis Hopper) on the way out of town.
The story is good and the pacing is right, but the film is hampered by a half-effective cast. Both Hopper and Walsh are worth watching, but Cage is too intense.  Lara Flynn Boyle is a loss. Neither her character nor her chemistry with Cage are even *remotely* believable. Phew!
NOTE: Film is also available on videocassette.
Grade: B-
THE SHADOW ==========
Cross DICK TRACY with BATMAN, subtract $20-30 million, and you're standing in THE SHADOW--the long-awaited update of the famous '30's radio show. The script is good--explaining both the character's origin and his network of agents--and the cast is appealing. The film could use some richer characterizations, but only Penelope Ann Miller (as Margo Lane) sticks out like a sore thumb. She's awful.
Other demerits include cheap FX, clumsy editing, and spotty direction. THE SHADOW *does* a great sense of humor, though. After all, how can film that costars Jonathan Winters, Peter Boyle, and Tim Curry be all *that* bad?
Grade: C+

SQLite3::Database#execute only accepts an array for bind parameters.
SQLite3::ResultSet used to query the database for the first row, regardless of whether the user asked for it or not. I have removed that so that rows will not be returned until the user asks for them. This is a subtle but sometimes important change in behavior.
83882d2208ed189361617d5ab8532a325aaf729d
SQLite3::Database#trace now takes either a block or an object that responds to "call". The previous implementation passed around a VALUE that was cast to a void *. This is dangerous because the value could get garbage collected before the proc was called. If the user wants data passed around with the block, they should use variables available to the closure or create an object.
SQLite3::Statement#step automatically converts to ruby types, where before all values were automatically yielded as strings. This will only be a problem for people who were accessing information about the database that wasn't previously passed through the pure ruby conversion code.
SQLite3::Database#errmsg no longer takes a parameter to return error messages as UTF-16. Do people even use that? I opt for staying UTF-8 when possible. See test_integration.rb test_errmsg_utf16
SQLite3::Database#authorize same changes as trace
test/test_tc_database.rb was removed because we no longer use the Driver design pattern.
All statements keep pointers back to their respective database connections. The @connection instance variable on the Statement handle keeps the database connection alive. Memory allocated for a statement handler will be freed in two cases:
close is called on the statement
The SQLite3::Database object gets garbage collected
We can’t free the memory for the statement in the garbage collection function for the statement handler. The reason is because there exists a race condition. We cannot guarantee the order in which objects will be garbage collected. So, it is possible that a connection and a statement are up for garbage collection. If the database connection were to be free’d before the statement, then boom. Instead we’ll be conservative and free unclosed statements when the connection is terminated.

AP: Catholic Church boards reviewing sex abuse fail victims
by Associated PressFacing thousands of clergy sex-abuse cases, U.S. Catholic leaders addressed their greatest modern crisis with a promised reform: Mandatory review boards.
These independent panels with lay people in each diocese would review allegations fairly and kindly, and help bishops ensure that abusive priests weren’t in ministry.
But almost two decades later, an Associated Press investigation of review boards across the country shows they have broadly failed to uphold these commitments. Instead, boards appointed by bishops and operating in secrecy have routinely undermined victims’ claims, shielded accused priests and helped the church avoid payouts.
Several bishops contacted by the AP did not respond to requests for comment. Others said review boards are mostly living up to the promises of the reforms mandated in 2002.
“They are critical to regaining the trust and confidence of our people,” Baltimore Archbishop William Lori said.

The Inflector transforms words from singular to plural, class names to table names, modularized class names to ones without, and class names to foreign keys. The default inflections for pluralization, singularization, and uncountable words are kept in inflections.rb.
The Rails core team has stated patches for the inflections library will not be accepted in order to avoid breaking legacy applications which may be relying on errant inflections. If you discover an incorrect inflection and require it for your application, you’ll need to correct it yourself (explained below).
By default, camelize converts strings to UpperCamelCase. If the argument to camelize is set to :lower then camelize produces lowerCamelCase.
camelize will also convert '/' to '::' which is useful for converting paths to namespaces.
Examples:
"active_model".camelize # => "ActiveModel" "active_model".camelize(:lower) # => "activeModel" "active_model/errors".camelize # => "ActiveModel::Errors" "active_model/errors".camelize(:lower) # => "activeModel::Errors"
As a rule of thumb you can think of camelize as the inverse of underscore, though there are cases where that does not hold:
"SSLError".underscore.camelize # => "SslError"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 55 def camelize(term, uppercase_first_letter = true) string = term.to_s if uppercase_first_letter string = string.sub(/^[a-z\d]*/) { inflections.acronyms[$&] || $&.capitalize } else string = string.sub(/^(?:#{inflections.acronym_regex}(?=\b|[A-Z_])|\w)/) { $&.downcase } end string.gsub(/(?:_|(\/))([a-z\d]*)/) { "#{$1}#{inflections.acronyms[$2] || $2.capitalize}" }.gsub('/', '::') end
Create a class name from a plural table name like Rails does for table names to models. Note that this returns a string and not a Class. (To convert to an actual class follow classify with constantize.)
Examples:
"egg_and_hams".classify # => "EggAndHam" "posts".classify # => "Post"
Singular names are not handled correctly:
"business".classify # => "Busines"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 140 def classify(table_name) # strip out any leading schema name camelize(singularize(table_name.to_s.sub(/.*\./, ''))) end
Tries to find a constant with the name specified in the argument string:
"Module".constantize # => Module "Test::Unit".constantize # => Test::Unit
The name is assumed to be the one of a top-level constant, no matter whether it starts with “::” or not. No lexical context is taken into account:
C = 'outside' module M C = 'inside' C # => 'inside' "C".constantize # => 'outside', same as ::C end
NameError is raised when the name is not in CamelCase or the constant is unknown.
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 213 def constantize(camel_cased_word) names = camel_cased_word.split('::') names.shift if names.empty? || names.first.empty? constant = Object names.each do |name| constant = constant.const_defined?(name) ? constant.const_get(name) : constant.const_missing(name) end constant end
Replaces underscores with dashes in the string.
Example:
"puni_puni" # => "puni-puni"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 149 def dasherize(underscored_word) underscored_word.gsub(/_/, '-') end
Removes the rightmost segment from the constant expression in the string:
"Net::HTTP".deconstantize # => "Net" "::Net::HTTP".deconstantize # => "::Net" "String".deconstantize # => "" "::String".deconstantize # => "" "".deconstantize # => ""
See also demodulize.
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 177 def deconstantize(path) path.to_s[0...(path.rindex('::') || 0)] # implementation based on the one in facets' Module#spacename end
Removes the module part from the expression in the string:
"ActiveRecord::CoreExtensions::String::Inflections".demodulize # => "Inflections" "Inflections".demodulize # => "Inflections"
See also deconstantize.
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 159 def demodulize(path) path = path.to_s if i = path.rindex('::') path[(i+2)..-1] else path end end
Creates a foreign key name from a class name. separate_class_name_and_id_with_underscore sets whether the method should put ‘_’ between the name and ‘id’.
Examples:
"Message".foreign_key # => "message_id" "Message".foreign_key(false) # => "messageid" "Admin::Post".foreign_key # => "post_id"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 189 def foreign_key(class_name, separate_class_name_and_id_with_underscore = true) underscore(demodulize(class_name)) + (separate_class_name_and_id_with_underscore ? "_id" : "id") end
Capitalizes the first word and turns underscores into spaces and strips a trailing “_id”, if any. Like titleize, this is meant for creating pretty output.
Examples:
"employee_salary" # => "Employee salary" "author_id" # => "Author"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 94 def humanize(lower_case_and_underscored_word) result = lower_case_and_underscored_word.to_s.dup inflections.humans.each { |(rule, replacement)| break if result.gsub!(rule, replacement) } result.gsub!(/_id$/, "") result.gsub!(/_/, ' ') result.gsub(/([a-z\d]*)/) { |match| "#{inflections.acronyms[match] || match.downcase}" }.gsub(/^\w/) { $&.upcase } end
Yields a singleton instance of Inflector::Inflections so you can specify additional inflector rules.
Example:
ActiveSupport::Inflector.inflections do |inflect| inflect.uncountable "rails" end
# File lib/active_support/inflector/inflections.rb, line 166 def inflections if block_given? yield Inflections.instance else Inflections.instance end end
Turns a number into an ordinal string used to denote the position in an ordered sequence such as 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th.
Examples:
ordinalize(1) # => "1st" ordinalize(2) # => "2nd" ordinalize(1002) # => "1002nd" ordinalize(1003) # => "1003rd" ordinalize(-11) # => "-11th" ordinalize(-1021) # => "-1021st"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 279 def ordinalize(number) if (11..13).include?(number.to_i.abs % 100) "#{number}th" else case number.to_i.abs % 10 when 1; "#{number}st" when 2; "#{number}nd" when 3; "#{number}rd" else "#{number}th" end end end
Replaces special characters in a string so that it may be used as part of a ‘pretty’ URL.
class Person def to_param "#{id}-#{name.parameterize}" end end @person = Person.find(1) # => #<Person id: 1, name: "Donald E. Knuth"> <%=<EMAIL_ADDRESS>person_path(@person)) %> # => Donald E. Knuth
# File lib/active_support/inflector/transliterate.rb, line 81 def parameterize(string, sep = '-') # replace accented chars with their ascii equivalents parameterized_string = transliterate(string) # Turn unwanted chars into the separator parameterized_string.gsub!(/[^a-z0-9\-_]+/, sep) unless sep.nil? || sep.empty? re_sep = Regexp.escape(sep) # No more than one of the separator in a row. parameterized_string.gsub!(/#{re_sep}{2,}/, sep) # Remove leading/trailing separator. parameterized_string.gsub!(/^#{re_sep}|#{re_sep}$/, '') end parameterized_string.downcase end
Returns the plural form of the word in the string.
Examples:
"post".pluralize # => "posts" "octopus".pluralize # => "octopi" "sheep".pluralize # => "sheep" "words".pluralize # => "words" "CamelOctopus".pluralize # => "CamelOctopi"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 24 def pluralize(word) apply_inflections(word, inflections.plurals) end
Tries to find a constant with the name specified in the argument string:
"Module".safe_constantize # => Module "Test::Unit".safe_constantize # => Test::Unit
The name is assumed to be the one of a top-level constant, no matter whether it starts with “::” or not. No lexical context is taken into account:
C = 'outside' module M C = 'inside' C # => 'inside' "C".safe_constantize # => 'outside', same as ::C end
nil is returned when the name is not in CamelCase or the constant (or part of it) is unknown.
"blargle".safe_constantize # => nil "UnknownModule".safe_constantize # => nil "UnknownModule::Foo::Bar".safe_constantize # => nil
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 258 def safe_constantize(camel_cased_word) begin constantize(camel_cased_word) rescue NameError => e raise unless e.message =~ /(uninitialized constant|wrong constant name) #{const_regexp(camel_cased_word)}$/ || e.name.to_s == camel_cased_word.to_s rescue ArgumentError => e raise unless e.message =~ /not missing constant #{const_regexp(camel_cased_word)}\!$/ end end
The reverse of pluralize, returns the singular form of a word in a string.
Examples:
"posts".singularize # => "post" "octopi".singularize # => "octopus" "sheep".singularize # => "sheep" "word".singularize # => "word" "CamelOctopi".singularize # => "CamelOctopus"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 36 def singularize(word) apply_inflections(word, inflections.singulars) end
Create the name of a table like Rails does for models to table names. This method uses the pluralize method on the last word in the string.
Examples
"RawScaledScorer".tableize # => "raw_scaled_scorers" "egg_and_ham".tableize # => "egg_and_hams" "fancyCategory".tableize # => "fancy_categories"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 126 def tableize(class_name) pluralize(underscore(class_name)) end
Capitalizes all the words and replaces some characters in the string to create a nicer looking title. titleize is meant for creating pretty output. It is not used in the Rails internals.
titleize is also aliased as as titlecase.
Examples:
"man from the boondocks".titleize # => "Man From The Boondocks" "x-men: the last stand".titleize # => "X Men: The Last Stand" "TheManWithoutAPast".titleize # => "The Man Without A Past" "raiders_of_the_lost_ark".titleize # => "Raiders Of The Lost Ark"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 115 def titleize(word) humanize(underscore(word)).gsub(/\b('?[a-z])/) { $1.capitalize } end
Replaces non-ASCII characters with an ASCII approximation, or if none exists, a replacement character which defaults to “?”.
transliterate("Ærøskøbing") # => "AEroskobing"
Default approximations are provided for Western/Latin characters, e.g, “ø”, “ñ”, “é”, “ß”, etc.
This method is I18n aware, so you can set up custom approximations for a locale. This can be useful, for example, to transliterate German’s “ü” and “ö” to “ue” and “oe”, or to add support for transliterating Russian to ASCII.
In order to make your custom transliterations available, you must set them as the i18n.transliterate.rule i18n key:
# Store the transliterations in locales/de.yml i18n: transliterate: rule: ü: "ue" ö: "oe" # Or set them using Ruby I18n.backend.store_translations(:de, :i18n => { :transliterate => { :rule => { "ü" => "ue", "ö" => "oe" } } })
The value for i18n.transliterate.rule can be a simple Hash that maps characters to ASCII approximations as shown above, or, for more complex requirements, a Proc:
I18n.backend.store_translations(:de, :i18n => { :transliterate => { :rule => lambda {|string| MyTransliterator.transliterate(string)} } })
Now you can have different transliterations for each locale:
I18n.locale = :en transliterate("Jürgen") # => "Jurgen" I18n.locale = :de transliterate("Jürgen") # => "Juergen"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/transliterate.rb, line 60 def transliterate(string, replacement = "?") I18n.transliterate(ActiveSupport::Multibyte::Unicode.normalize( ActiveSupport::Multibyte::Unicode.tidy_bytes(string), :c), :replacement => replacement) end
Makes an underscored, lowercase form from the expression in the string.
Changes ‘::’ to ‘/’ to convert namespaces to paths.
Examples:
"ActiveModel".underscore # => "active_model" "ActiveModel::Errors".underscore # => "active_model/errors"
As a rule of thumb you can think of underscore as the inverse of camelize, though there are cases where that does not hold:
"SSLError".underscore.camelize # => "SslError"
# File lib/active_support/inflector/methods.rb, line 77 def underscore(camel_cased_word) word = camel_cased_word.to_s.dup word.gsub!(/::/, '/') word.gsub!(/(?:([A-Za-z\d])|^)(#{inflections.acronym_regex})(?=\b|[^a-z])/) { "#{$1}#{$1 && '_'}#{$2.downcase}" } word.gsub!(/([A-Z\d]+)([A-Z][a-z])/,'\1_\2') word.gsub!(/([a-z\d])([A-Z])/,'\1_\2') word.tr!("-", "_") word.downcase! word end

Mohan M. Shantanagoudar, Ag. CJ The petitioner sought for police protection against the private respondents on the ground that they are not permitting him to run his rubber processing unit, without any valid reason.
At the time of issuing notice to respondents 3 to 12, an interim order was granted by this Court on 6.4.2016 directing the 2nd respondent to ensure maintenance of law and order and also that no obstruction is caused to the functioning of the petitioner's unit by respondents 3 to 12 and their men.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that subsequent to passing of the interim order by this Court on 6.4.2016, respondents 3 to 12 and their men are not creating any obstruction in the running of the rubber processing unit by the petitioner. Thus, as of now, the petitioner has no grievance against them.
It is not in dispute that the petitioner is running the rubber processing unit with appropriate licence in his credit. W.P.(C) No.13501 of 2016 -: 2 :- Prima facie there is no violation of law as such by the petitioner for starting and running the said unit.
3. However, learned counsel for respondents 3 to 12 submits that the petitioner is running his unit without complying with the requisite provisions under the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981.
If the allegation made by the learned counsel appearing for respondents 3 to 12 is true, then, it is open for them to take appropriate steps in accordance with law. If such steps are taken, the concerned authorities will conduct an enquiry and thereafter pass orders as per law.
With these observations, this writ petition is disposed of.

Your standard web page creation tool is woefully unprepared to capture complex technical concepts that require data, math, and graphs, but that is exactly what I would like to do. I started playing around with IPython Notebook with nbconvert as a way to document complex ideas on my website that required a mixture of prose, mathematics, algorithms, and graphs. I got inspired by the blogs of Carl Boettiger, David Ketcheson, Ben Morris, Fernando Perez, and others who are already doing it. I believe that IPython Notebook will prove to be an unqualified success, so I’m assembling all my technical notes here
- Notes for IPython Notebook
- Using Matplotlib with IPython Notebook
- Notes for Digital Signal Processing
Several mistakes in the formating (particurally in Markdown and MathJax) … more work required.

Hello friends,
Belated happy new 2021 year! Hope things will be better and we can finally get back to normal life.
Meanwhile, in between of work, personal lives and anxiety, we’ve managed to bring you some great features with a new release of Ferret - Ferret v0.14.0.
This release contains some syntax updates, DOM API fixes and extra flexibility. Let’s dive in!
What’s added
Support of History API
Before v0.14.0, Page object from the CDP driver, would only return the url that was set during full page load or redirect but ignored all in page navigation using History API (e.g. using react-router
).
Starting this relase, the behavior has changed. Now the Page object always returns the url which is in the url-bar of your browser. If you need previous behavior, access url property of the root document.
By other words, page.url
and document.url
may point to different locations if History API is used on your page.
Support of custom HTTP transport in the HTTP driver
Now it’s possible to provide your custom HTTP transport to the underlying HTTP client (pester) in HTTP driver:
Added LIKE operator
It’s been a part of ArrangoDB Query Language since the beginning, but was not ported to FQL in its early times.

As you might noticed, FQL’s implementation has some deviations from its ArrangoDB counterpart: syntax of pattern matching. Ferret is using stadard Unix wildcards.
Support of ignoring page resources
Now you can ignore all the “noise” loaded with your web pages and speed up your scraping by disabling particular files from loading:
You can either use just a type of the resource (stylesheet, script, image, font and etc) or add an url pattern to do it more selectevley.
Support of handling non-200 HTTP status codes in the HTTP driver
This possibility added to the HTTP driver that allows you to handle situation when a target website responds with HTTP code other than 200 but still has content.
As with ignoring resources, you can either use just a code or add an url pattern to do it more selectevley.
DOCUMENT_EXISTS function
Now you can check if a webpage exists before navigating to it.
What’s fixed
Ok, now, let’s take a look what bugs have been fixed!
- RAND(0,100) always same result
- Element.children always returns empty array
- Passing parameters with a nested nil structure leads to panic
Summary
Thanks everyone who contributed to the project by either providing new feature or fixing bugs or just asking questions!


I am a graduate researcher at the Lab for Globalization and Shared Prosperity at Georgetown University. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Economics and I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Mathematics at Georgetown University. I have experience working in research positions at the International Monetary Fund and QuantEcon. I am passionate about using data to solve complex problems and have recently become interested in hierarchical models.
In my free time, I enjoy reading books — my favorite book this year is Clint Smith's How the Word is Passed, which explores how different places in the United States remember and reckon with their histories of slavery. When I am not working on math problems or programming in Python, I enjoy practicing yoga (I am a RYT©200 registered yoga teacher).
Monthly Cryptoasset Market Report
This project focuses on building a complete data pipeline. The goal is to solve a problem using data engineering techniques and develop a solution that incorporates best practices for data quality, scalability, and reliability. It utilizes APIs to extract data from Cryptowatch and NewsAPI to analyze the performance of cryptoassets in the last month. The data pipeline includes data ingestion, processing, and storage. The project retrieves all cryptoasset data for the last month using Cryptowatch REST API and retrieves all relevant news articles from last month using NewsAPI. The sentiment analysis is performed on the collection of articles using Amazon Comprehend, and the results are stored in Redshift staging tables for further analysis. The entire process is automated and scheduled through Apache Airflow to trigger on the first day of every month.

Debt Around the World
The significance of debt in the global economy cannot be overstated. High levels of debt, especially if unsustainable or concentrated in vulnerable sectors, can undermine economic growth and stability. Monitoring debt levels and patterns is therefore crucial for policymakers seeking to identify potential risks to economic stability and take appropriate action to address them. Moreover, understanding debt is essential for assessing the overall health of the financial system and identifying systemic risks. This data visualization of global debt patterns provided by the IMF's Global Debt Database is an important tool for understanding the distribution of debt around the world.

Interbellum Intergovernment Debt
World War I (WWI) was one of the deadliest war and inflicted heavy costs and losses on some of the belligerents. Taxation only partially financed massive military expenditures. An important share of military expenditures and—in the post-war era—of reconstruction costs was financed through bilateral government loans. After the United States entered the war, it provided much of the needed financing, either directly through US Treasury advances or mediated through the United Kingdom. At the end of the war, the US and the UK were the only two net creditor countries. By then, Germany had accumulated very limited external debt.

Blender Corp was is dire need of improving its approach to how it hired, fired, and managed company employees. A model was developed, allowing them to simulate the impact of various measures.
The above web app is that model, running in your browser, so you too can play with the parameters and see how it plays out. Blender Corp is of course a fake company, and this simulation would naturally be a simplified view of the world, but still..
First some introductions to what you see and what the parameters control:
At the top left is a building, with workers coming and going. The colors of the workers represent the overall distribution of employee skill level. Blue is for the A-players, those whom are especially good at what they do. Then we have green for B-players; These are good workers, above average in skill. C-players are the average, represented with a yellow color. Then we have the less good employees, the D- and F-players. D-players (red) have some skill, but are below average. F-players (grey) are the failures, and wouldn't bring much good to the company.
On the left side of the building you see new hires joining the company. The colors of these represent the level you've selected to hire, from the controls. The controls are available in the top right side of your view port. Click it to expand it, or alternatively use the H key to hide/unhide it.
Within the main building you see current employees walking around as they do their job. Again, the colors of these represent the distribution of skill level within the company.
Then on the right side of the building you have previous employees leaving the building. These have either been fired or have quit by themselves. Employees of all levels will with some probability choose to quit in any case, and it's assumed that the better an employee is the more external opportunity he/she has. Therefore, good employees are more likely to quit that less good employees.
To the right side of the building is a pie chart. This shows the current skill level share of the workers working for the company at the current point in time. Below the building and pie chart is a stacked line chart showing the skill level distribution over time.
Now to the fun part: changing parameters.
If you open the controls and pick example 1, you would over time start seeing a distribution somewhat similar to the example to the left. Here we're living in a very simple world: We know who are A- and B-level workers, hire only them, and fire any C-, D-, and F-level workers that happen to already be in the company.
There is no interaction between employee levels, so for example an A-level worker stays an A-level forever. This lack of interaction also implies that A-level workers are equally happy working with any other A-, B-, C-, D-, or F-level employee.
What we see when this example is stabilizing is that the company is dominated by B-level employees. This is purely because A-level workers have a higher tendency to quit than B-level workers. As these are replaced we have an equal probability of replacing him or her with either an A- or B-level person.
This is however maybe a bit too simplistic. It doesn't seem likely that a top level employee would enjoy being managed by a less skilled manager, or constantly fix issues introduced by less skilled peers.
It also doesn't seem right that people stay at the same lever forever. As technologies, methodologies, and best practice changes over time, people will need to update themselves in order to maintain their knowledge and skill.
In example 2 the following changed:
We stopped firing C-level employees as it didn't make sense in many cases, it was costly, and there were legal issues surrounding it as well.
We assume that 1% of employees will go down one level per iteration, due to lack of training.
We assume a 10% group dynamics boost.
Group dynamics boost is what controls the interaction between levels and the likelihood that it will increase or decrease the probability of someone quitting. For example: A B-level employees have a 70% chance of staying, but with a boost factor of 10% this will increase to a 77% chance of staying if the B-level employee is working with a majority of A- and B-level people. If however there were more C-, D-, and F-level employees than A- and B-level employees, this boost factor would instead increase the likelihood of leaving from 30% to 33%.
The group dynamics especially creates interesting non-liner relationships which might drastically change what distribution the skill level stabilizes at. I do very much believe that people get influenced a lot by whom they work with, and that this affects how likely they are to either stay or leave a company.
This is really bad news. As we all know "A-players hire A-players and B-players hire C-players", and we now have a company dominated by B-players.
One way to solve this is to apply some solid internal training. If we do this right, as shown in example 3, we assume that 3% gain one level per iteration (level up).
This in itself is enough to create a company that is dominated by A-level employees.
Another thing is to define what we call high skill employees, and specifically target these if they decide to quit. Basically what this option will do is to reiterate their decision. They will enter this second decision using their usual transition probabilities, giving the company another chance of changing a high skilled employees decision to quit, potentially keeping the high skilled employee.
Example 3 also utilized this high skill option to try to retain A- and B-level employees.
I'll let that be last example and leave you to experiment with the parameters as you see fit.
This simulation experiment is within the definition of what we call a Monte Carlo simulation. We do random sampling, put those samples through a set of criteria and operations, and look at the resulting output. Often Monte Carlo simulations just present the final output after a set number of iterations, with a fixed set of parameters. Here however you're able to see the result as it evolves over time, in addition to dynamically change the parameters.
Initially this was all developed in Clojure, but when I thought about presenting this in a blog post it became obvious that it would be of more value to be able to easily interact with the code. It was therefore modified to be developed in ClojureScript instead, so that it would run in your browser. In addition to ClojureScript I'm making heavy use of the async library, wiring various components of the code through channels. This is also how it communicates with the web worker, allowing the core parts of the simulation to run in a separate thread.
If you want to study the code, feel free as it's available under an open source license over at GitHub. The artwork I found over at opengameart.org (artwork 1, artwork 2), and was adapted from that.

Innovation in payment systems
The Bitcoin protocol is not just about sending money from A to B. It has many features and opens many possibilities that the community is still exploring. Here are some of the technologies currently being researched and in some cases, turned into real products and services. The most interesting uses of Bitcoin are probably still to be discovered.
Control against fraud
An unprecedented level of security is possible with Bitcoin. The network provides users with protection against most prevalent frauds like chargebacks or unwanted charges, and bitcoins are impossible to counterfeit. Users can backup or encrypt their wallet and hardware wallets could make it very difficult to steal or lose money in the future.
Global accessibility
All payments in the world can be fully interoperable. Bitcoin allows any bank, business or individual to securely send and receive payments anywhere at any time, with or without a bank account. Bitcoin is available in a large number of countries that still remain out of reach for most payment systems due to their own limitations. Bitcoin increases global access to commerce and it can help international trades to flourish.
Cost efficiency
With the use of cryptography, secure payments are possible without slow and costly middlemen. A Bitcoin transaction can be much cheaper than its alternatives and be completed in a short time. This means Bitcoin holds some potential to become a common way to transfer any currency in the future. Bitcoin could also play a role in reducing poverty in many countries by cutting high transaction fees on workers' salary.
Tips and donations
Bitcoin has been a particularly efficient solution for tips and donations in several cases. Sending a payment only requires one click and receiving donations can be as simple as displaying a QR code. Donations can be visible for the public, giving increased transparency for non-profit organizations. In cases of emergencies such as natural disasters, Bitcoin donations could contribute to a faster international response.
Crowdfunding
Although not yet easy to use, Bitcoin can be used to run Kickstarter-style crowdfunding campaigns, in which individuals pledge money to a project that is taken from them only if enough pledges are received to meet the target. Such assurance contracts are processed by the Bitcoin protocol, which prevents a transaction to take place until all conditions have been met. Learn more about the technology behind crowdfunding.
Micro payments
Bitcoin can process payments to the scale of a dollar and soon even much smaller amounts. Such payments are routine even today. Imagine listening to Internet radio paid by the second, viewing web pages with a small tip for each ad not shown, or buying bandwidth from a WiFi hotspot by the kilobyte. Bitcoin is efficient enough to make all of these ideas possible. Learn more about the technology behind Bitcoin micro payments.
Dispute mediation
Bitcoin can be used to develop innovative dispute mediation services using multiple signatures. Such services could make it possible for a third party to approve or reject a transaction in case of disagreement between the other parties without having control on their money. Since these services would be compatible with any user and merchant using Bitcoin, this would likely lead to free competition and higher quality standards.
Multi-signature accounts
Multiple signatures allow a transaction to be accepted by the network only if a certain number of a defined group of persons agree to sign the transaction. This could be used by a board of directors to prevent any member to spend parts of their treasury without other members' consent. This can also be used by banks to prevent theft by blocking payments above a threshold if the user does not provide additional credentials.
Trust and integrity
Bitcoin offers solutions to many of the trust problems that plague banks. With selective accounting transparency, digital contracts, and irreversible transactions, Bitcoin can be used as a ground to restore trust and agreement. Crooked banks cannot cheat the system to make a profit at the expense of other banks or the public. A future in which major banks would support Bitcoin could help to reinstate integrity and trust in financial institutions.
Resilience and decentralization
By its high decentralization, Bitcoin created a different form of payment network with an increased level of resilience and redundancy. Bitcoin can handle millions of dollars in trades without requiring military protection. With no central point of failure such as a data center, attacking the network is a more difficult project. Bitcoin could represent an interesting step forward in securing local and global financial systems.
Flexible transparency
All Bitcoin transactions are public and transparent and the identity of the people behind the payments is private by default. This allows individuals and organizations to work with flexible transparency rules. For instance, a business can choose to reveal certain transactions and balances only to certain employees just like a non-profit organization is free to allow the public to see how much they receive in daily and monthly donations.
Automated solutions
Automated services usually have to deal with costs and limitations of cash or credit card payments. This includes all kinds of vending machines, from bus ticket booths to coffee machines. Bitcoin is suited to be used in a new generation of automated services as well as to cut their operating costs. Imagine self-driving taxis, or a store where your basket lets you pay your purchases without waiting at the queue. Many ideas are possible.

MERMAIDS A film review by Frank Maloney Copyright 1990 Frank Maloney
MERMAIDS is Cher's first movie in two years, the last being the wonderful MOONSTRUCK. MERMAIDS is directed by Richard Benjamin and co-stars Winona Ryder and Bob Hoskins.
First off, let me just say that I love Cher and have since the early Sixties; she is outre and outrageous and sane and I admire her intelligence and acumen, her strength and courage, all of which, I think, are visible in her life and her acting. Next let me say that Cher is not a great actress; her range and her gifts are narrow, but within her limitations she can be amazing.
Cher was amazing in MOONSTRUCK. In MERMAIDS, she's wonderful, but not quite amazing. One of the reasons is that this movie is not quite the movie the older one was, it lacks that romantic moment of magic, the transformations of love. This is not to say that MERMAIDS doesn't try to achieve a moment like the one in MOONSTRUCK when all the principals are looking at the full, huge moon from their several windows. The comparable moment in MERMAIDS, which involves a room painted and lighted to look like a fantasy of the bottom of the sea fails; the audience does not enter into the vision, it merely sees Cher momentarily entranced by it. This is not Cher's fault, but the result of some faulty direction on the part of Richard Benjamin (who was once a comic actor himself and had a charming failure of a TV series, called HE AND SHE, co-starring his wife Paula Prentiss).
Another reason is that Cher seems to be stepping back to allow Winona Ryder plenty of elbow room. This is really Ryder's film. She is the voice-over narrator and provides the audience's point of view. The film is about her coming of age much more than it is about Cher's character, Rachel, doing some growing up of her own. The film is also about the relationship between the mother and the daughter, and most of the best scenes and best lines concentrate of this.
In fact, Winona Ryder gives the amazing performance in this film. Her range and her gifts seems unlimited and promise even greater things as she matures. She is the glue that holds this movie together.
The movie is mostly comedy with one melodramatic episode and it's the kind of movie with wonderful one-liners that people are going to be pleased to quote to each other. "Death is dwelling on the past and staying in one place too long." "All of Charlotte's ages are difficult." The script is by June Roberts, who wrote "Experience Preferred . . . But not Essential," and is based on a novel by Patty Danns.
In addition to Cher and Ryder, the other principals include Hoskins, who, although he has been adorable, has never been cuter than in his role of the shoe-store owner and boyfriend. In fact, his mugging and eye-brow waggling are on the verge of being totally out of control by the last scene.
And then there is the role of the younger daughter, played by Christina Ricci, who impressed me tremendously. A natural, eccentric child who seemed oblivious to the camera.
Finally, I need to say something about Benjamin's direction and Roberts' script. The finest, most singular scene in MERMAIDS concerns the morning John Kennedy was assassinated. I was in tears during the entire scene, it so perfectly brought back exactly what that experience was like for all of us who were alive then and old enough to understand it. Men standing in the street with tears streaming down their faces. Clots of people watching TV together in doorways. An entire nation come to a standstill. The evocation of '63-'64 is almost flawless (I saw a couple of impossible details in set decors, but that's pretty good); certainly the spirit of the times beautifully invoked. The soundtrack will undoubtedly find a good sales, being choked full of all sorts of "classics" of the period. These are praiseworthy qualities the director and writer have brought to the movie.
On the other hand, I was upset by some of the directional decisions. Benjamin made some awkwards cuts, for one thing, especially one where Cher slaps Ryder in the kitchen and suddenly we cut to the living room; it was absolutely disorienting, completely without continuity. Inexcusably awkward.
Overall, I can recommend MERMAIDS. It's funny, and entertaining, and it leaves you feeling good at the end. I note that the audience that I was part of was overwhelming composed of women. From this, I take it that MERMAIDS is women's film. I think that lots of people will go to MERMAIDS and they will go back a second and third time.

Cape Town – The third annual Joburg Festival will kick off its six-day celebration from 19 - 24 November.
The South African horror film, 8, will premiere at the festival hub on Nelson Mandela Square in Sandton.
Starring Tshamano Sebe, Inge Beckmann, Garth Breytenbach and Chris April - it centres on an old man, fated to collect souls for eternity, who then seeks atonement after trading his daughter's soul.
Moviegoers will be able to watch a total of 60 films and documentaries from around the world at six venues across Johannesburg.
The festival will play host to a number of stars, producers and directors, who will participate in Q&A sessions after select screenings across the programme, with daily red carpet premieres allowing fans to meet the stars themselves.
THE LINE-UP
The Joburg Film Festival line-up includes films from South Africa; Nigeria; Mozambique; Brazil; USA; UK; Morocco and more, with a mix of feature films and documentaries showcasing stories that cross-cultural boundaries.
Idris Elba's directorial debut, Yardie, tells the story of a Jamaican immigrant in London who becomes consumed with avenging the murder of his older brother.
Frances-Ann Solomon's Hero is inspired by the life and times of Ulric Cross whose life spanned key moments of the 20th Century like WW2, African independence, Black Power, the rise of a new brand of Black leadership around the world - all events that have shaped the world today.
Luce, starring Octavia Spencer; Kelvin Harrison Jr; Naomi Watts & Tim Roth sees the liberal-minded couple, Amy and Peter Edgar, who are forced to reconsider their image of their adopted son after they discover he has written an extremely disturbing essay for his class at school.
Grace Jones: Bloodlight & Bami delves into the story of larger than life performer and model Grace Jones to discover her as a lover, daughter, mother, sister and even grandmother. The stage is where her most extreme embodiments are realised, and her theatrical imagination lets loose: this is where the musical of her life is played out.
Where are you, João Gilberto? sets out in the footsteps of German writer Marc Fischer who obsessively searched for the legendary founding father of Bossa Nova, Brazilian musician João Gilberto, who has not been seen in public for decades.
Fanney Tsimong's soulful documentary, My Culture, My Music, illustrates how music has always been a powerful tool within South African culture. A host of South African artists narrate what music and culture mean to them: connecting to the body and soul, healing and providing a sense of being.

The Ministry of Energy, Mines, and Petroleum Resources (EMPR)
The Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources seeks to achieve voluntary compliance with applicable requirements wherever possible. This is generally achieved through the issuance of orders to remedy non-compliance. Where voluntary compliance cannot be achieved or where the non-compliance presents more significant risks, the Ministry may pursue the imposition of an administrative monetary penalty (AMP) or an offence prosecution.
The AMP program allows the Ministry to impose a financial penalty on any individual or corporation that contravenes prescribed provisions of the Mines Act, the regulations and/or the Health, Safety and Reclamation Code. AMPs provide an additional compliance and enforcement tool that is efficient, cost-effective and flexible, and can be imposed without court involvement. AMPs were introduced under the Mines Act in 2017.
Where a person contravenes a provision of the Mines Act, the regulations, the Health, Safety and Reclamation Code or an order, and where the evidence is supportive, charges may be recommended for approval by Crown Counsel. A person convicted of an offence under the Mines Act is liable to a fine of not more than $1,000,000 or to imprisonment for not more than three years or both.
AMP Decision Records:
- Pinegreen Gold Mining (Canada) Ltd – Determination of Administrative Penalty
- Davis Mining & Exploration Corp - Determination of Administrative Penalty
- South Island Aggregates Ltd. - Determination of Administrative Penalty
Offence Prosecutions:
- R. v. Broda Construction Inc., 2019 BCPC 31
R. v. Green Mountain Jade Inc.: In September 2019, the Court delivered a decision regarding sentencing and delivered Green Mountain Jade Inc. a fine of $20,000 and took into account a $50,000 donation the accused had made to the deceased’s family.
On July 20, 2015, an excavator operator was conducting trenching activities. During these activities, his excavator became stuck on the steep slope in that area. After unsuccessful attempts to free the excavator, he lost control of the machine while operating it down the slope. The excavator rolled, and the operator was ejected and sustained serious injuries. He was air-lifted to the Dease Lake Medical Center where he succumbed to his injuries shortly after arrival.

For the tomato jam, place all of the tomato jam ingredients into a pan over a medium heat and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes, until thickened and slightly sticky. Remove from the heat and cool.
For the wontons, heat the oil a deep heavy-based pan until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns brown when dropped in it. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)
Crumble the goats' cheese into the cooled tomato jam and gently fold through.
Spoon a little of the tomato and cheese mixture into the centre of each wonton wrapper.
Brush the edges of each wonton wrapper with the egg white mixture, then fold the wontons over to form a triangle and press the edges to make sure they are sealed.
With the apex of each wonton triangle facing away from you, brush the two side points of the triangle and fold them into the centre. The wontons should now resemble tortellini.
Place the wantons into the hot oil, a few at a time, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until golden-brown and crisp. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain onto kitchen paper.
Method for aubergine purée, heat a dry frying pan until hot. Add the whole aubergine and cook on each side for 4-5 minutes until blackened and softened. Remove from the heat and cool.
Heat a clean frying pan and add the olive oil, shallots and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Cut the aubergine in half and scoop the flesh into the frying pan with the shallots. Cook for a further five minutes.
Transfer to a food processor. Add the tahini and blend to a purée.
Pass the purée through a fine sieve into a clean bowl and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
For the vinaigrette dressing, place all of the dressing ingredients into a bowl and whisk together until combined.
To serve, place the pea shoots into a small bowl and drizzle with the pesto. Mix to coat well and place in the centre of each plate. Place three wontons on top of each pile of pea shoots. Spoon some aubergine purée to the side and finish with a drizzle of the vinaigrette.


word NameArrayFind( optr array, /* optr to name array */ const char * nameToFind, /* Find element with this name */ word nameLength, /* Pass zero if name string is * null-terminated */
void * returnData); /* Copy data section into this * buffer */
This routine locates the element with the specified name. It returns the token of the element and copies its data section into the passed buffer. If there is no element with the specified name, the routine will return CA_NULL_ELEMENT. The routine takes the following arguments:
array
nameToAdd
nameLength
NameArrayFind()
will assume the string is null-terminated.
returnData
Include: chunkarr.h
Warnings: You must make sure the
returnData
buffer is large enough to hold an element's data portion; otherwise, data after the buffer will be overwritten.
word NameArrayFindHandles( MemHandle mh, /* Handle of LMem heap */ ChunkHandle array, /* Handle of name array */ const char * nameToFind, /* Find element with this name */ word nameLength, /* Pass zero if name string is * null-terminated */
void * returnData); /* Copy data section into this * buffer */
This routine is exactly like
NameArrayFind()
above, except that the name array is specified by its global and chunk handles (instead of with an optr).
Include: chunkarr.h
NEC(line)
This macro defines a line of code that will only be compiled into the
non
-error-checking version of the geode. The
line
parameter of the macro is the actual line of code. When the non-EC version of the program is compiled, the line will be treated as a normal line of code; when the EC version is compiled, the line will be ignored.
See Also: EC()
.
Include: ec.h
optr ObjBlockGetOutput( MemHandle mh); /* handle of the subject object block */
This routine returns the optr of the output destination object set for the specified object block. The output object is stored in the object block's header in the
OLMBH_output
field. If the block has no output set, NullOptr will be returned.
Include: object.h
See Also: ObjLMemBlockHeader
.
void ObjBlockSetOutput( MemHandle mh, /* handle of the subject object block */ optr o); /* optr of the new output object */
This routine sets the
OLMBH_output
field in the specified object block's header. The optr passed in
o
will be set as the block's output.
Include: object.h
See Also: ObjLMemBlockHeader
.
void ObjCompAddChild( optr obj, /* optr of parent composite */ optr objToAdd, /* optr of new child */ word flags, /* CompChildFlags */ word masterOffset, /* offset to master part */ word compOffset, /* offset to comp field in master part */ word linkOffset); /* offset to link field in master part */
This routine adds the given object to an object tree as the child of another specified object. It returns nothing. You will not likely want to use this routine; instead, you will probably use the messages listed below under "See Also." The parameters of this routine are
obj
objToAdd
@link
).
flags
CompChildFlags
. These flags indicate whether the object should initially be marked dirty as well as where in the parent's child list the new child should be placed (first, second, last, etc.).
masterOffset
Class_masterOffset
field in its
ClassStruct
structure.)
compOffset
linkOffset
Warnings: This routine may resize and move LMem and Object blocks on the heap, thereby invalidating all segment addresses and pointers.
Include: metaC.goh
See Also: MSG_VIS_ADD_CHILD
,
MSG_GEN_ADD_CHILD
.
optr ObjCompFindChildByNumber( optr obj, /* parent's optr */ word childToFind, /* zero-based child number */ word masterOffset, /* offset to master part */ word compOffset, /* offset to comp field in master part */ word linkOffset); /* offset to link field in master part */
This routine returns the optr of the passed object's child; the child is specified based on its position in the object's child list. You will not often use this routine, but you will probably use the messages listed under "See Also" instead. The routine's parameters are listed below:
obj
childToFind
masterOffset
Class_masterOffset
field in its
ClassStruct
structure.)
compOffset
linkOffset
Include: metaC.goh
See Also: MSG_GEN_FIND_CHILD
,
MSG_VIS_FIND_CHILD
.
