- You will be given a random “target number” at the start of
each game.
- Each gem, located below, will be worth a random amount of points. This
amount is hidden from view.
- You win the game by matching your total score to the assigned random number.
You lose the game if your total score goes above the random number.


This document is a summary of all known bugs in this version of OBJ3. To report a new bug, please send an email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>No known bugs.
While not a bug per se, it is important to note that the TRIM compiler has several limitations. In general, it cannot be used on arbitrary OBJ3 code because it does not support the following OBJ3 features: built-ins, A/C rewriting, evaluation strategies, and non-left-linear equations. Even so, the speed increase afforded by TRIM is quite welcome for evaluations of high computational complexity. See the TRIM paper included with the distribution for more information.
No details available.
Description: If an attempt is made to instantiate a parameterized module with complete garbage, especially if insufficient parameters are given, the system drops out with a LISP exception. Missing error check someplace?
No fix currently available.
The parser is unable to handle operator syntax involving brackets. For example,
op (.All _ ) _ : ...
However, operator declarations of this form are silently accepted.
No fix currently available.
Summary. For example,
obj MATCH is sorts S1 S2 . subsort S2 < s1 . op _+_ : S1 S1 -> S1 [assoc] . op _+_ : S2 S2 -> S2 [assoc comm] . op a : -> S2 . op b : -> S2 . op c : -> S1 . op _*_ : S1 S1 -> S1 . var x : S1 . eq x * x = x . endo red (a + b)*(b + a). ***> should be: a + b red ((a + b) + c)*((b + a)+ c). ***> should be: a + b + c
If you open . a module instantiated with a module introducing an operator needing matching acz matching, attempting to use the operator causes a segmentation fault. Running within the interpreter gives a more informative response.
Joseph, I think I may have found a bit of a bug in the current lecture notes. In section 5.5 you claim that if a Sigma term-rewriting system A with no void sorts is confluent then so is A with fresh constant (i.e.  Here's what seems to be a counter-example to this claim. Consider obj A is sort Nat . vars X Y Z : Nat . op 0 : -> Nat op s : Nat -> Nat . op _+_ : Nat Nat -> Nat . op t : Nat Nat Nat -> Nat . eq 0 + X = X . eq s(X) + Y = s(X + Y) . eq X+(Y+Z) = t(X,Y,Z) . eq t(s(X),Y,Z) = s(X + (Y+Z)) . eq t(0,Y,Z) = Y + Z . endo Termination is pretty trivial: e.g. p(0) = 2 p(s(a)) = 1 + p(a) p(a+b) = 4 + p(a)p(b) p(t(a,b,c)) = 2 + p(a)(4 + p(b)p(c)) We now prove A is confluent. Let a,b,c,d,e etc denote A-terms There are two critical pairs: a + (b + (c + d)) 1=> a + t(b,c,d) (i) 1=> t(a,b, c + d) and a + (s(b) + c) 1=> t(a,s(b),c) (ii) 1=> a+s(b+c) Now, it is easy to see that for any term t we either have t *=> s(t') or a *=> 0 (Simply rewrite using an most-nested-first ``layered'' rewriting strategy. I.e. alternately rewrite most-nested +'s, then most-nested t's) Thus we can easiy show that a + t(b,c,d) and t(a,b, c + d) are both rewriteable to one of s(a' + s(b' + (c + d))) or s(b' + (c + d)) or s(a' + (c + d)) or (c + d) depending on which of the two cases above hold for a and b . Similarly, we can easily show t(a,s(b),c) and 1=> a+s(b+c) are both rewriteable to one of s(a',s(b+c)) or s(b + c) depending on which of the two cases above holds for a. Hence A is locally confluent and hence confluent. Now let X = { a,b,c,d } and consider A as a Sigma^{A} U X term-rewriting system. Adding a,b,c,d as fresh constants we obtain a + (b + (c + d))) 1=> t(a,b, c + d) 1=> a + t(b,c,d) with both alternate rewritings normal forms. Hence A treated as Sigma^{A} U X term-rewriting system is NOT confluent. Andrew

Is Medicare Information Clear? Let Us Know.
Health care decisions can be tough – and they’re even harder when insurance forms, instructions and policy information aren’t written clearly. At Medicare, it’s our job to make sure you can use our materials.
That’s why we’re committed to speaking and writing about the Medicare program in plain language. It’s another way we’re working to make health care information easier for you to use and understand.
The Plain Writing Act of 2010 means that plain language isn’t just good sense - now, it’s the law. As a Federal agency, we’re required to make sure our letters, booklets, Web pages, and any other materials are clear, concise, and easy for you to act on.
We’re working hard to comply with the new law. We’re training our employees, reviewing our materials, and finding new, easier ways to communicate about our programs using the Federal Plain Language Guidelines.
But we need your help—how are we doing here at Medicare?
We’d like you to let us know if you have trouble understanding our documents or the pages on our Web site. We need to know, so we can make these things better.
Most of all, we want to give you the clear and accurate information you need to make good decisions for your family. Tell us how we’re doing.
 More people are getting preventive services to keep them healthy, and people with high prescription drug costs are seeing the coverage gap “donut hole” starting to close. Here are the latest numbers from the past few months:
- July:
- Through the end of July, 1.28 million Americans with Medicare have received discounts on brand name drugs in the Medicare Part D coverage gap — up from 899,000 through the end of June and 478,000 through the end of May.
- These discounts have saved seniors and people with disabilities a total of$660 million, including $199 million in July alone!
For state-by-state information on the number of people who are benefiting from this discount in 2011, visit this page.
- August:
- Through the end of August, over 18.9 million people with Original Medicare, or 55.6 percent, have received one or more free preventive services.
- During the same time period, over 1.2 million Americans with Original Medicare have taken advantage of Medicare’s new free Annual Wellness Visit, up from 1.06 million in July.
For state-by-state information on the numbers of people who are utilizing preventive services in 2011, visit this page.
Over the coming years, provisions of the Affordable Care Act will help close the coverage gap completely. Here is a sense of what people with Medicare can look forward to:
- 2013: Paying less and less for your brand-name Part D prescription drugs in the coverage gap.
- 2020: The coverage gap will be closed, meaning there will be no more “donut hole,” and people with Medicare will pay only 25% of the costs of their drugs until they reach the yearly out-of-pocket spending limit.
The chart below shows what people with Medicare prescription coverage will pay over time:

Put Insurance on Your Back-to-School Checklist
Pencils, backpack, lunch box? All covered. How about health insurance?
If you’re one of the millions of hard-working families without health insurance, there’s great news: the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) covers more kids than ever. CHIP offers low-cost or free health insurance for babies, children, and teens, even if you’re working or you’ve been turned down by state programs before.
CHIP pays for doctor visits, prescriptions, and hospitalizations. Most states also cover dental care, eye care, and medical equipment. What you pay depends on your state and your income, but many services are free, and charges for others are small.
Protect Your Child’s Health & Future
With coverage through CHIP, you can see a doctor when your child gets sick, without having to worry about how you’ll pay for it. Your kids can get the shots and well-child visits they need to attend school and play sports.
The fact is, children with health insurance are more likely to be healthier and miss fewer school days. When they do get sick, you won't have to sit for hours in the emergency room for conditions that could be easily treated in your doctor's office.
Applying for CHIP Is Easy & Free
In most states, you can complete a short application through the mail or over the phone. Visit insurekidsnow.gov, or make a free call to 1-877-KIDS-NOW (1-877-543-7669).
Many families think they make too much money to qualify, but you’d be surprised. If you’re a grandparent or legal guardian, many states also let you apply for the children in your care.
Join the Fight against Medicare Fraud
Medicare fraud affects everyone. You can team up with Medicare to help.
Our Senior Medicare Patrol volunteers are teaching people like you how to spot, report, and stop fraud, and protect themselves from identity theft.
Here are some things you can do:
• Guard your Medicare and Social Security numbers. Treat them like you would treat your credit cards.
• Hang up the phone if someone calls and asks for your Medicare number, Social Security number, or bank or credit card information. We will NEVER call and ask for this information, and we will NEVER call you or come to your home uninvited to sell Medicare products.
• Be suspicious of anyone who offers you free medical equipment or services and then requests your Medicare number. It’s illegal, and it’s not worth it!
• Do not let anyone borrow or pay you to use your Medicare ID card or your identity.
• Check your Medicare claims for errors. Look at your Medicare Summary Notice (MSN) or statements from your Medicare plan. You can also check www.MyMedicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) as soon as your claims have been processed. The sooner you see and report errors, the sooner we can stop fraud.
• Call 1-800-MEDICARE to report any suspected fraud. TTY users should call
1-877-486-2048.
Medicare is cracking down on fraud, and so can you.
• Learn more about spotting and reporting fraud, and get tips on protecting yourself from identity theft.

The “Extra Help” Program. Something to talk about.
Do you know about the “Beneficio Adicional” or “Extra Help” program? My mother always told me if you wanted to know anything, you went to “la plaza del pueblo” (town square). You went to socialize with neighbors, exchange important news, pass “chisme” (gossip) and take part in the community. The plaza was all about conversation and learning from one another what’s really happening in the world. We may have left the plaza behind, but the tradition of sharing information is as vital as ever. Blogs, IM, chat and social media are now our plaza. So here is some important information you might want to pass on.
Many people with limited income and resources may qualify for Medicare’s “Extra Help” program, but they must apply to find out. You could be one of them.
You can get help with Part D prescription drug coverage premiums, deductibles and co-payments. This means you don’t have to go without medications because you can’t afford them.
It’s easy and free to apply for “Extra Help.”
- Visit Social Security’s Web site (in Spanish or English) to apply online or for more information.
- Call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 to apply over the phone or request an application (TTY users should call 1-800-325-0778).
- Apply at your local Social Security office.
Save money, live well, and share the information, because this program is too important to keep to yourself.

todo content, the project is at github
In 2013, my friend Jukka Pirinen published his c64dslj, a project very similar to this. As I had just started learning 6502, in order to learn to make some SID sounds, I got immediately interested, and Jukka's tool helped me to get started.
Gradually I started making some facade code around c64dslj. First I wanted strongly typed labels, instead of raw strings, to shield against typos. Later I developed unsigned-byte, a library for easy handling of bytes (Java bytes are horribly difficult when trying to keep them unsigned!). That led to the possibility of using overloading of opcode methods: the type of the operand no more had to be defined in the method name. Instead of Strings and ints, the operands were now Labels, RawAddresses or UnsignedBytes, so the method name could be simply the opcode name for all addressing modes.
Finally, I started developing a simulator of a 6502 processor and RAM, to make it possible to use TDD to develop my SID routines. At that point I was already so deep in the details of the instruction set that generating the machine code became so trivial that I no more had any need for c64dslj.
So: the mockodore codebase is not directly based on c64dslj, but it was heavily inspired by it and probabaly wouldn't exist without it. Thank you, Jukka.

China Digital Innovation Platform
Advanced Push Notification System
As a responsible designer in the China Digital Innovation Platform (CDIP) team, I designed features for Philips administrator portal to manage various Philips digital propositions.
One of the key features that I worked on was 'Advanced Query' functionality for push notifications. The feature allows operations (different roles of users have different authorities) to control push notification messages within connected propositions in Philips, i.e., Health-related digital apps, and specify various rules to filter out recipients that are aimed to recieve notification messages.
Background
China Digital Innovation Platform is a Philips R&D organization specifically focusing on digital innovation in China context. The organization is constantly evolving by tacking cutting edge technologies, e.g., AR, AI, Conversational UI and so on.
The design task that was given to me was vague in the begining; design a software portal that allows advanced push notification message system for various internal stakeholders.
To define the challenges more specifically, I’ve team up with the development team. Our major collaborative tools were Axure and Zeplin for efficient discussions about low-fidelity wireframes, and final UI specifications.
Design Concept
The fundamental design concept was building ‘logical query builder’ in a software platform, which is usable, clear and intuitive. My design focus was making logical workflow that can satisfy all required specifications from CDIP team, i.e., Sending messages every week Friday to whom are living in Shanghai and Beijing, age group 26-43, purchased xx product. Since the system should enable complex query building logic, systematic thinking and approach were essential to create usable UI design.
Design Outcome
Final visuals for CDI platform
Design outcome includes not only the overall platform UI/UX design following Philips software Design Language System, but also pixel detailed UI designs for query builder, dashboard, audience management, message template, and notification history.
The platform has clear navigational structure with top navigation bar: menu, language option and user information, so that users can guide themselves to desired pages to sufficiently finish their tasks. In addition, each page provides relevant information that the user should know about based on their roles, i.e., administrator, analyst, etc, so they can effectively focus on their specific tasks only.
Dashboard
Dashboard allows users to access various pages for their tasks including user management as well as push notification. Since additional products would likely be added on the top of the current service, I’ve designed the dashboard layout in a grid system.
Audiences
Audiences is a page that specifically handles target audience groups who would get push notification messages. Users (administrator and analyst) can designate particular user group by selecting a connected app and then building a query. Query builder can vary from simple to very complex based on the purpose, e.g., Female who is currently living in Beijing and purchased product A, age group 35-41, or Male who is living in Shanghai who are already married, and age group between 31-39; if any of the conditions matches, then the system find out the value, for example, 32.
The Query builder provides different conditions: And, Or, Not. By selecting the condition first, users can define the relation between individual statements, i.e., condition ‘And’ means ‘Any of the following statement are true’, and ‘Or’ means ‘All of the following are true’. This is quite different with human language. Since in conversational contexts between people, the meaning of ‘And’ and ‘Or’ are normally used in the opposite way. To prevent this possible confusion, I decided to use explanatory conditions rather than using ‘And’, and ‘Or’.
Templates
Templates is a page that allows users create the templates of push notification messages. Users can define the messages: what, who, how much and how many, e.g., on every Monday and Sunday evening 18:00, send messages to audience group A for 3 months.
Templates can be created by administrators, analysts and operators, but only administrators can approve whether a template is okay to go or not. Thus, the system view of each role is slightly different; administrators can see the ‘approval section’ (see above image).
Notifications
In Notification page, users can see whole history of individual push notifications that have been sent or waiting. Each notification has its unique code number, and it is connected a push notification template and an audience group, so that users can see how many target audiences have got the specific message


Divide the unsorted list into X sublists, each containing 1 element. Now repeatedly merge sublists to produce new sorted sublists until there is only 1 sublist remaining. This will be the sorted list.

Divide the unsorted list into two smaller arrays: the lowest # elements and highest # elements. Based off of picking a 'pivot' number, and sort above or below that number to create the 2 arrays. Continue separating until there is one sorted list.
Pros: Algorithm of choice in many situations since its easy to implement and uses less memory during execution.
Cons: It is recursive.
Compare two elements at the same time and loop through the array only comparing 2 at a time. No dividing into arrays.
Named for the smaller elements that will bubble to the top through the sort.
Pros: The ability to check and see if any swaps are made in a pass, if not, then we know that the array is sorted and we can stop the sort.
Cons: Too small and simple for most problems

Hashbase is shutting down
We've sadly decided it's time to shut down Hashbase. The team is moving on to new projects, and we no longer have the resources to keep the service running.
Thank you all for the years of support and care. We wouldn't have gotten anywhere without you.
The source code for Hashbase is available here.

Hello everyone! I have been lurking around these forums for several months actually, and felt it was a good moment to start participating. The great work you all put into this site and product is inspiring!
I am looking at developing a watt monitoring device for my energy management solution and I came across an interesting circuit that I though you all may like if you haven't seen it before. It's by a guy called rick may and the link is here:
http://faculty.petra.ac.id/resmana/private/instrument/rick-96.pdf
He based his circuit on a Stephen Woodward and his original post is here: http://www.edn.com/design/analog/4327422/Optoisolators-compute-watts-and-volt-amperes
Basically he measures watts using a small resistance and four opto isolators. In his second circuit he has two outputs, one for va and one for watts, both as analog outputs which he calibrated for 1v = 100w and 100 va, making pf calculation very easy. It is so extremely simple that I wonder why it isn't more widely used, is it because of accuracy problems?
Your comments and opinion would be great.
Akash
Re: Watt monitoring
Interesting circuit but things have moved on a bit since 1998. You can buy a meter like that for less than £10 now - like this example.
Re: Watt monitoring
And not practical for anything other than a single appliance connected via a plug and socket.


Statistics Introduction
Why statistics are necessary
Statistics is a set of tools used to organize and analyze data.
Employing statistics serves two purposes, (1) description and (2) prediction. Statistics are used to describe the characteristics of groups. These characteristics are referred to as variables. Data is gathered and recorded for each variable. Descriptive statistics can then be used to reveal the distribution of the data in each variable.
To be a scientist or to understand science, you need some understanding of the principles of experimental design, data collection, data presentation and data analysis.
This page has two aims, one to become familiar with R and RStudio and second to gain a basic understanding of statistical methods and principles.
Statistics allow a degree of objectivity to be incorporated into assertions.
This webpage has helper content across four different areas: Useful Links for Statistics, Issues in Statistics, Help with R and RStudio and Statistics Courses.


Library: Foundation
Package: Dynamic
Header: Poco/Alignment.h
Description
Helper for building an aligned character array type.
This template is used to explicitly build up a collection of aligned character types. We have to build these up using a macro and explicit specialization to cope with old versions of MSVC and GCC where only an integer literal can be used to specify an alignment constraint. Once built up here, we can then begin to indirect between these using normal C++ template parameters. This union template exposes a suitably aligned and sized character array member which can hold elements of any of up to four types.
These types may be arrays, structs, or any other types. The goal is to produce a union type containing a character array which, when used, forms storage suitable to placement new any of these types over. Support for more than four types can be added at the cost of more boiler plate.

3 arrested after crashes linked to auto theft ring
SHARON, Mass. (AP) - Massachusetts State Police say three men linked to a Rhode Island-based auto theft ring have been arrested after crashing vehicles while fleeing authorities.
Officials say the arrests on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning occurred as troopers and local officers were investigating a series of thefts of cars, tires and rims in several communities south of Boston.
Authorities say two vehicles crashed in Sharon, Massachusetts, after suspects fled approaching officers. Police say the officers did not pursue them.
A third vehicle that fled in Sharon crashed on Interstate 95 in North Attleborough, Massachusetts. Police are still searching for the driver.
Police arrested three men in their 20s from Providence, Rhode Island - Kemoni Mitchell, Joshua Tangui and Marcos Torres. It’s not clear if they have lawyers who could respond to the allegations.

Development of concentration dependent sensors
In this section the construction and evaluation of Spinach-SAM sensors with modified concentration dependence is presented. Combining several constructs with significant differences in Kd is expected to broaden the dynamic range of the full construct.5 This is illustrated in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Concept; broadening the dynamic range of the sensor by combining two aptamers with different detection ranges. If one construct is able to detect the target molecule in the blue range, while another construct is able to detect the target molecule in the green range, combining the two constructs broadens the dynamic range of the biosensor, and enables detection of the target molecule in the full red range.
Design
The basis of our study is the original construct by Paige et. al in which the Spinach aptamer is linked to a SAM aptamer through a linker region.3 We hypothesized that changing the linker region between the aptamers or introducing mutations in the SAM aptamer would influence the concentration dependency of the biosensor.
Four constructs were created with mutations in the linker region (T constructs) and six constructs were created with mutations in the aptamer recognizing SAM region (S constructs). Two different linker regions were used for the two different classes. The most effective linker was just one GC base pair and was used in the S constructs.3 The second most effective linker region was 2 base pairs; a GC and a CG bp. This region was mutated for the T constructs.
The purpose of the mutations in the linker region was to lower the stability of the stem thereby affecting the concentration dependency. Hence one of the GC pairs was exchanged with an AU base pair (construct T2 and T3) or an AC mismatch (construct T4).
The wild type SAM detecting aptamer is called S1. In the construct S2 and S3 one base in the metabolite recognition loop was mutated. This was expected to affect the affinity for the binding of the SAM metabolite. In the S4 and S5 constructs, one base in the second loop was mutated. This was expected to affect the stability of the tertiary structure of the aptamer-SAM metabolite complex. In the S6 construct two GC-basepairs were switched, which was expected to affect the folding of the aptamer. The different mutations are shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2: Illustrations of the secondary structure of the Spinach-SAM construct including mutation sites. Mutations made in the detection aptamer is shown (blue boxes) and named. Mutations made in the linker region is also shown (grey boxes) and named. The DFHBI binding-loop (green box) and the SAM binding-loop (red box) is shown.
Assembly PCR and transcription
Due to the length of the RNA aptamers, smaller DNA fragments were purchased and assembled into the full-lenght DNA counterpart. This was done by assembly PCR and is illustrated in the Figure 3, left. The DNA was then amplified by PCR. In the DNA sequence a T7 promotor was included. This was used for transcription of the DNA into the RNA aptamers.
Figure 3: left) Illustration of assembly PCR reaction; right) 1% agarose gel of PCR reaction for the different constructs (T1-T4 and S1-6). The expected lenght of DNA was 139-141 base pairs
Figure 4: Transcription of the DNA template into RNA. The RNA constructs were analyzed and purified by 8% denaturing PAGE.
Measurement of Kd values
The mutated RNA constructs were tested for concentration dependency by a series of measurements of fluorescence in response to the concentration of SAM.
The RNA and DFHBI concentration were kept constant at 0.26 µM and 2.6 µM respectively, while the SAM concentrations were increased from 100x to 10000x the concentration of RNA. The relative fluorescent enhancement for the 10 constructs are shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5: The relative fluorescent enhancement of the constructs. The fluorescence of DFHBI was measured (light blue), then RNA was added (orange), followed by SAM in 3 different concentrations: 100x[RNA] (grey), 1000x[RNA] (yellow) and 10000x[RNA] (dark blue). The last measurement is a control with no added RNA. All measurements were done after 10 minutes of incubation.
Some mutations induced a fluorescence response while others did not. The constructs with mutations in the detection aptamer showed no enhancements in fluorescence. This may be the result of the high binding specificity of the aptamer, which means none of the bases can be interchanged without disrupting binding of SAM.
The constructs with mutations in the linker region were more promising. Two constructs responded to variations in SAM concentrations; T1 and T2. T1 showed a fluorescence enhancement of 3.8 while T2 was enhanced by a factor of 9.6. T1 has an unmutated linker region while T2 has a mutated GC to AU-basepair. These two constructs were selected for further investigation. The Kd value was determined based on fluorescent measurements made with small increments in the addition of SAM. The results are shown in Figure 6.
Figure 6: left) Fluorescence intensity as a function of SAM concentration for T1 and T2. right) Fluorescence intensity as a function of SAM concentration for T1 and T2 on a logarithmic scale. The series were normalized to the highest total fluorescence of either T1 or T2 before the average was taken. All measurements were triplicates and DFHBI fluorescence was subtracted before plotting.
To determine the Kd value the measurements were fitted with a degree three polynomium. The Kd value was found as the concentration of SAM that lead to fluorescence at half of the maximum fluorescent intensity - that is, the concentration of SAM corresponding to 50% saturation of the construct. The Kd values were 286 µM and 202 µM for T1 and T2, respectively. The mutation in T2 made its linker region less stable than that of T1, and surprisingly more dependent on the target molecule. Counterintuitively, the least stable construct was most responsive towards the target molecule.
The two structures were mixed in a 1:1 ratio with a total RNA concentration of 0.26µM and measurements of the affinity were carried out. The result is shown in Figure 7. The total fluorescence was less than for the individual measurements of the constructs. It is possible that this problem could be helped by fusing the two together, as a defined construct could remove uncertainties in stoichiometry of the constructs.
The apparent Kd value was calculated to be 222 µM, which shows that it was possible to modulate the apparent Kd value by combining multiple constructs.
Figure 7: left) Fluorescence intensity as a function of SAM concentration for a 1:1 mixture of T1 and T2. right) Fluorescence intensity as a function of SAM concentration for a 1:1 mixture of T1 and T2 on a logarithmic scale. The series were normalized to the highest total fluorescence before the average was taken. All measurements were duplicates and DFHBI fluorescence was subtracted before plotting.
In conclusion we have shown that mutations in the linker region can modulate the stability of the sensors, furthermore, we have created a more sensitive construct, T2. Combining the two constructs confirmed that it was possible to modify the apparent Kd value of the total construct. This is a proof of concept for modulation of the concentration dependency. The dynamic range has been slightly increased, however, additional constructs with markedly changed affinities are needed in order to apply the sensor.
Finding orthogonal optical aptamers
Another aspect of the project is to find an orthogonal optical RNA aptamer, which should function as an internal control for the level of transcription.
The aptamer should be orthogonal to the Spinach-SAM-DFHBI complex. This includes the following characteristics:
- The excitation or emission wavelengths of the orthogonal aptamers must not overlap.
- The emission wavelength of one aptamer must not overlap with the excitation wavelength of the other.
- The optical RNA aptamers should not display unspecific binding to non-target ligands.
Synthesis of fluorophores and aptamers
Figure 8: The synthesized fluorophores. The DFHBI fluorophore and the analogues 2-HBI, NBI, DMHBI, DMABI and NI. An analogue of the Mango aptamer fluorophore TO3-PEG2-biotin (TO3).
The four fluorophores, DFHBI, 2-HBI, DMHBI and DMABI from the article by Paige et. al, 2011 were synthesized. In addition to these two new fluorophore analogues were proposed and synthesized. It was anticipated that these would display a bathochromic fluorescence shift due to the extended pi network of the NI fluorophore and the NBI having a nitro-group with a hydroxyl-group acting as an auxochrome. Lastly TO3 from the article by Dolgosheina et. al was synthesized. This fluorophore binds to the optical aptamer called Mango.6 The structures of the fluorophores are shown in Figure 8.
The corresponding aptamers were produced by assembly PCR, amplified by PCR and transcribed into RNA. The gels showing successful amplification are shown below.1
Figure 9: left) Assembly PCR visualized in a 1% agarose gel run at 100 Volt/12 cm for 100 minutes. From the left: aptamer 11-3, 2-4, 17-3, Ladder, 3-6, 6-8 and Spinach. right) A 8% polyacrylamide gel run at 400 Volt/19 cm for 75 minutes. From the left: 11-3 (104bp), 2-4 (103bp), 17-3 (104bp), 3-6 (114bp), 6-8 (104bp) and Spinach (95bp). The two gels shows an efficient assembly PCR and transcription of all aptamers.
Evaluation of fluorophore-aptamer pairs
The fluorescense enhancement of the fluorophore upon aptamer binding was initially evaluated (Figure 10). The 2 new fluorophores showed no enhancement and are left out of the graph. As shown in the graph, Spinach and Mango has high fluorescence enhancements.
Figure 10: Experimentally found fluorescence enhancement (Fluorescence of the aptamer-fluorophore complex divided by the fluorescence of the fluorophore) of the different aptamer-fluorophore complexes synthesized as in the article by Paige et. al in 2011.
An experiment was setup to test the orthogonality of Mango, Spinach, and their respective fluorophores. The two constructs are excited at 610 nm for Mango-TO3 and 460 nm for Spinach-DFHBI.
The results show that the only significant fluorescence enhancement is achieved for the complexes with the correct fluorophore at the correct excitation wavelength (Figure 11). A small enhancement at 497 nm (maximum emission wavelength for Spinach-DFHBI) is observed for Spinach and TO3 with excitation at 460 nm. The enhancement is 4x the fluorescence of TO3 alone.
The orthogonality is still preserved, as there is no fluorescence enhancement for the T1 Spinach-SAM complex. When adding SAM to reach the usual maximum fluorescence the fluorescence enhancement is just 1.03x for T1-TO3. This is shown in Figure 12 (comparison Figure 5).
Figure 11: Fluorescence of Mango & TO3 (top left), Spinach & DFHBI (top right), Mango & DFHBI (bottom left) and Spinach & TO3 (bottom right) measured at exc. 460 nm em. 480-600 nm (red and blue graphs) and exc. 610 nm em. 620-800 nm (purple and green graphs).
Figure 12: Fluorescence of T1 and TO3. From bottom: TO3, TO3 & T1, TO3 & T1 & SAM 100x[T1], TO3 & T1 & SAM 1,000x[T1] and TO3 & T1 & SAM 10,000x[T1].
Based on these data it can be concluded that Mango will be able to serve as an internal control for our sensor.
In vivo setup
The aim was to test the concentration dependent constructs in vivo. The previously published results for in vivo fluorescence of Spinach was reproduced, however our final constructs remain to be tested.
Design and considerations
RNA is difficult to express in vivo as cells have RNases that will degrade it. This is important for the design of RNA constructs for in vivo usage. The RNA can be protected from RNases utilizing tRNA scaffolds as camouflage. The anticodon stem in the tRNA is replaced by the desired RNA insert via restriction sites as seen in Figure 13.
Figure 13: The tRNA scaffold is marked inside the box. The scaffold include the acceptor stem, the D-loop and the TΨC-loop, but not the anticodon. The anticodon is replaced with the desired RNA insert. Fiure adopted from Ponchon et al.4
To achieve transcription of the RNA inside cells, DNA plasmids containing the DNA template were transformed into E. coli cells by electroporation. Once inside the cell, the constructs can take advantage of the host cell's transcription and processing machinery. The tRNA scaffold furthermore ensures transcription of the correct length of RNA, which usually is a problem with recombinant RNA expressed in vivo.
A plasmid containing the original Spinach-SAM construct was kindly provided by the Jaffrey lab, at Cornell University.
To include a positive control for the experiments a plasmid containing only Spinach was produced. The DNA fragment containing restriction sites was made by assembly PCR using an ultramer (an ultramer a DNA strand of up to 200 bps) and two shorter oligonucleotides. This is shown in Figure 14.
Figure 14: A 1 % agarose gel (11 V/cm) analysis of assembly PCR and restrictions digestion. Lane 1; ladder. Lane 2; the PCR product cleaved with both BglII and XhoI. Lane 3; the uncleaved PCR product (272 bp). Lane 4; the ultramer before PCR.
The DNA was digested with restriction enzymes and ligated into the plasmid. After transformation into E. coli and culturing the plasmid DNA was isolated. From restriction digestion and sequencing data one out of three colonies confirmed the presence of the correct insert.
Confocal fluoroscence microscopy
Three different constructs were tested in E. coli; Spinach, Spinach-SAM and an untransformed control. SAM is endogenously present in the cell. It can be artificially supplemented by adding methionine to the media. The results are shown in Figure 15 and Figure 16. As expected only a small amount of fluorescense was observed for the negative control containing no inserts. The positive Spinach control showed a high level of fluorescence, which was 2.7 times larger than the negative control. When adding methionine, despite our expectations the fluorescence decreased. The Spinach-SAM construct in the presence of DFHBI showed an increase in fluorescence of 1.42. When adding additional methionine the fluorescence decreased again. In the in vitro experiments it was observed that SAM concentrations above a certain treshold had a quenching effect on the fluorescence. It was hypothesized that the reduction in fluorescence might be the result of the same effect.

MirageOS v2.0: a recap of the new features
This work funded in part by the EU FP7 User-Centric Networking project, Grant No. 611001.
The first release of MirageOS back in December 2013 introduced the prototype of the unikernel concept, which realised the promise of a safe, flexible mechanism to build highly optimized software stacks purpose-built for deployment in the public cloud (more background on this). Since then, we’ve been hard at work using and extending MirageOS for real projects and the community has been steadily growing.
We’re thrilled to announce the release of MirageOS v2.0 today! Over the past few weeks the team has been hard at work blogging about all the new features in this latest release, coordinated by the tireless Amir Chaudhry:
- ARM device support: While the first version of MirageOS was specialised towards conventional x86 clouds, the code generation and boot libraries have now been made portable enough to operate on low-power embedded ARM devices such as the Cubieboard 2. This is a key part of our efforts to build a safe, unified mutiscale programming model for both cloud and mobile workloads as part of the Nymote project. We also upstreamed the changes required to the Xen Project so that other unikernel efforts such as HalVM or ClickOS can benefit.
- “Introducing an ARMy of unikernels” by Thomas Leonard talks about the changes required and instructions for trying this out for yourself on your own cheap Cubieboard.
- Irmin distributed, branchable storage: Unikernels usually execute in a distributed, disconnection-prone environment (particularly with the new mobile ARM support). We therefore built the Irmin library to explicitly make synchronization easier via a Git-like persistence model that can be used to build and easily trace the operation of distributed applications across all of these diverse environments.
- “Introducing Irmin: Git-like distributed, branchable storage” by Thomas Gazagnaire describes the concepts and high-level architecture of the system.
- “Using Irmin to add fault-tolerance to the Xenstore database” by Dave Scott shows how Irmin is used in a real-world application: the security-critical Xen toolstack that manages hosts full of virtual machines (video).
- OCaml TLS: The philosophy of MirageOS is to construct the entire operating system in a safe programming style, from the device drivers up. This continues in this release with a comprehensive OCaml implementation of Transport Level Security, the most widely deployed end-to-end encryption protocol on the Internet (and one that is very prone to bad security holes). The blog series is written by Hannes Mehnert and David Kaloper.
- “OCaml-TLS: Introducing transport layer security (TLS) in pure OCaml” presents the motivation and architecture behind our clean-slate implementation of the protocol.
- “OCaml-TLS: building the nocrypto library core” talks about the cryptographic primitives that form the heart of TLS confidentiality guarantees, and how they expose safe interfaces to the rest of the stack.
- “OCaml-TLS: adventures in X.509 certificate parsing and validation” explains how authentication and chain-of-trust verification is implemented in our stack.
- “OCaml-TLS: ASN.1 and notation embedding” introduces the libraries needed for handling ASN.1 grammars, the wire representation of messages in TLS.
- “OCaml-TLS: the protocol implementation and mitigations to known attacks” concludes with the implementation of the core TLS protocol logic itself.
- Modularity and communication: MirageOS is built on the concept of a library operating system, and this release provides many new libraries to flexibly extend applications with new functionality.
- “Fitting the modular MirageOS TCP/IP stack together” by Mindy Preston explains the rather unique modular architecture of our TCP/IP stack that lets you swap between the conventional Unix sockets API, or a complete implementation of TCP/IP in pure OCaml.
- “Vchan: low-latency inter-VM communication channels” by Jon Ludlam shows how unikernels can communicate efficiently with each other to form distributed clusters on a multicore Xen host, by establishing shared memory rings with each other.
- “Modular foreign function bindings” by Jeremy Yallop continues the march towards abstraction by expaining how to interface safely with code written in C, without having to write any unsafe C bindings! This forms the basis for allowing Xen unikernels to communicate with existing libraries that they may want to keep at arm’s length for security reasons.
All the libraries required for these new features are regularly released into the OPAM package manager, so just follow the installation instructions to give them a spin. A release this size probably introduces minor hiccups that may cause build failures, so we very much encourage bug reports on our issue tracker or questions to our mailing lists. Don’t be shy: no question is too basic, and we’d love to hear of any weird and wacky uses you put this new release to! And finally, the lifeblood of MirageOS is about sharing and publishing libraries that add new functionality to the framework, so do get involved and open-source your own efforts.
Breaking news: Richard Mortier and I will be speaking at OSCON this week on Thursday morning about the new features in F150 in the Cloud Track. Come along if you are in rainy Portland at the moment!

NatGeo Traveler’s picks for best trips of 2020 span Hungary, China, Africa and the Balkans
PARIS, Nov 20 — National Geographic Traveler has released its list of the best trips to take in 2020, a list that includes one of the darkest outdoor places on the planet, an elephant haven in Africa and an off-the-radar hiking path that forms part of Europe’s first long-distance trail.
Dubbed the planet’s “25 most exciting destinations for the year ahead,” NatGeo’s picks for the best places to visit in 2020 is an editorial selection based on the recommendations of its international network of experts and magazine editions.
At the top of the list is Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, which marks 25 years of peace in 2020 following the end of the Bosnian War in 1995. Though the city still bears the scars of its violent past, editors note that restoration efforts have established a relative calm in the Western Balkans, driving growth and recovery to the local area.
Editors also recommend one of China’s most isolated and undiscovered provinces, Guizhou in southwestern China, home to offices for Apple and Huawei. The presence of tech powerhouses in the mountainous region is credited for improving access to the region, including traditional villages that still practice farming and textile traditions that stretch back to the sixth century.
The Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa, one of the world’s darkest places; the National Blue Trail in Hungary and the elephant havens at Zakouma National Park in Chad are also on the list.
Here are the 25 trips to take in 2020, according to NatGeo Traveler:
- Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina
- Guizhou Province, China
- Tohoku, Japan
- National Blue Trail, Hungary
- Telč, Czechia
- Magdalen Islands, Quebec, Canada
- Wales Way, United Kingdom
- Abu Simbel, Egypt
- Fort Kochi, India
- Zakouma National Park, Chad
- Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, US
- Puebla, Mexico
- Kalahari Desert, Southern Africa
- Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona, US
- Maldives
- Tasmania, Australia
- Asturias, Spain
- Göbekli Tepe, Turkey
- Mendoza Province, Argentina
- Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia
- Guatemala
- Parma, Italy
- Canary Islands, Spain

In the real world, building circuits often start with a “schematic” for the circuit. Just like a blueprint tells a builder exactly how to build a house, a schematic tells an engineer how to build a circuit.
A schematic for a circuit might look something like this:
Looks pretty complicated, huh?
But, if you stick with me through this section, I think you’ll find that, even a complex looking schematic like that, is really not too difficult to understand.
Let’s take this step by step…
The Parts & Their Symbols
Schematics use symbols to represent all the common parts you will find in a circuit. The symbols don’t always look like the parts they represent, so I’ve provided a little cheat-sheet right here:
You may see some slight variations between how some of these things are drawn, but if you use the chart above as your reference, you should be able to figure out these basis components in any schematic.
You’ll also notice that in some cases, the symbols may contain (+) and (-) signs that indicate which side of the part is which – for example, which side of the battery is the positive (+) side and which is the negative (-) side. And in some cases, you’ll see a number next to a part indicating what size of that part to use – for example, a resistor may have something like “100 Ω” next to it, indicating that the resistor should be “100 ohm” in size (we’ll talk more about this later).
Connecting the Parts
In a schematic, you’ll notice that all the parts are attached to each other by lines. These lines represent the wires through which power in the circuit flow.
Wiring a circuit is as easy as attaching the wires to the parts (and to each other) as indicated in the schematic. If you can replicate the drawing using real wires and parts, your circuit will work as expected.
Let’s use the following schematic as an example:
Does this look familiar? It should – this is a schematic of the circuit we built in the previous project.
You probably noticed in our schematic above that the entire circuit made a loop. This makes sense given our definition of a circuit as needing to be a closed loop for it to work (remember, in an open circuit, electricity can’t flow). The electricity starts at the (+) terminal of the battery and finishes at the (-) terminal of the battery, also called the “ground.”
All circuits will start at a power source and finish at the ground of that power source. And in many schematics – like the one we’ve been using above – the circuit will appear as a closed loop, starting at one side of the power source and completing at the other side. And while this is how circuits work, it’s not always convenient to draw circuits in a closed loop. Especially in complex schematics, where having to draw everything in a loop can make the drawings very difficult to read.
Which is why schematics will often separate the two sides of the power source, and make the schematic simpler to read. Let’s take a look at how our schematic above would typically be drawn in the real world:
At the top of the schematic is the power source – indicated by the “9V”. Just like in our previous schematic drawing, the power source is connected to the Resistor, which is then connected to the LED.
In this schematic diagram, the other lead of the LED doesn’t loop back to the power source, but instead connects to a symbol that represents “ground.” In the real world, the circuit would connect back to the (-) side of the power source (which is ground), but in the diagram, the power and ground are separated to make the diagram simpler and easier to read.

What are the best practices associated with using classes vs. Id's?
Many people ask, "Is the best practice to use CLASS or ID as the selector?"
In general, the rule of thumb is that you should ask yourself: "is there more than one element which requires the same style, now or at any time in the future?", and the answer is even "maybe", then make it a class.
Don't forget that class and ID are not mutually exclusive. There is nothing to stop you from having both! This is sometimes very useful as it allows an item to inherit common styling along with other elements of the same class as well as giving you precise control of that specific item. Another handy technique is to apply multiple classes to the same object (yes, class="someClass someOtherClass" is perfectly valid)
In theory it is also possible to get CSS to only apply to items that belong to several classes, e.g. div.box.narrow {something: somevalue;} but unfortunately this is not supported in all browsers. Update 2011: Multiple class selectors now have near universal browser support so go ahead and use them!
Don't forget that you can link to an element that has an ID. This can be very important for accessibility, among the other benefits. This is a good reason why for layout elements like header, navigation, main content, footer, search form and so on, you should always use an ID instead of a Class (or together with a Class).

 Based on data from Statistics Netherlands (or Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek) we could try to figure out main cause of death for different age groups.
I’ve just collected the most recent data from Statistics Netherlands (CBS) on main cause of death at the certain age. The data is based on 2016. The following death causes are taking into account:
Age of interest is on x-axis, y-axis is split into different causes of death which should sum up to 100%. Hover mouse over an area of interest to get actual numbers for this cause of death and age:


It's pretty exciting because, for the first time, I know I have all the tools I need to build any website I want. I have an endpoint which runs any python program I'd like on my server and returns a response that my client-side app can read. So all the tools I need, like an authentication system, or giving my client access to a database, can be written in the ultra-familiar-to-me space that is Python. The incredibly mystical front-end has gotten
The one missing link is real-time communication, which will require (as far as I know) sockets. I'm finding inconclusive results about being able to set up sockets with Gunicorn. I actually don't know how I'd use sockets on the front-end either. That's a question for another day, though. Until then--we've got services!
So let's build the second global counter app. Of course, we do actually still have one missing piece, namely, the database. Python has native support for a very simple to use database called SQLite. It's not a full-fledged database, in that the database is stored in a single .db file and concurrency control is at the file-level. Meaning one process accessing the database locks the entire database. But it should be more than good enough until my website gets to like, hundreds of accesses per second. And even at that point, we can swap out a better database.
We don't even really need the database for the global counter. As mentioned before, a single file would serve the same purpose. But this will be good to try out.
We create a SQLite database called ivoirians.db. We create a single table, tb_Counter, with a single column, intCounterValue. We add a single row, 0. There should never be more than one row in this table. And then lastly, to our testService from yesterday, we add two more possible calls--one increments the counter and returns it, one returns it. One will be called on page-load, the other is called when the button is pressed.
After the services are finished, we wire up our front-end. Create a button, set it to the service value on startup, and update it when it's pressed. As simple as that sounds, I realize I haven't ever tried to write Javascript to do this before.
{{counter}}
Unfortunately--I never actually learned how Angular worked. Until tomorrow.

PPIs are used to have a real impact, not just to count numbers. They help prosecutors and communities flag problems, ask additional questions, develop solutions, and measure change over time.
PPIs are reflective of community expectations. People need safety and protection from violence, but they also demand accountability and transparency. Plus, community members want their taxes to fund effective and fair prosecution.
PPIs focus on a multilayered range of organizational objectives and prosecutorial roles. While meaningful individually, PPIs are interdependent and especially helpful when trends are viewed together.
PPIs are based on data, not opinion. Data quality issues must be addressed before using the PPIs in your office, but your data are probably more useful than you think.
PPIs are the result of an independent process for deciding what constitutes success. One should not decide how to measure their own success; otherwise everyone would be successful.
PPIs are open and free to use. This website includes a complete list of indicators and implementation materials. Use them for the public good.

Introduction
This is the
Round3 project, under the theme "fun". Another requirement is no controller. We only have one week for this project. Therefore, we decided to make a two-player cooperation game to make our game more fun. In this game , each player is connected with a Vive tracker on the waist. They need to move around to control the two-head dog. When their distance becomes farther, the hotdog will be stretched. When their distance becomes shorter, the hotdog will also become shorter. They need to work together to collect the good items and dodge bad items.My Contributions
- As a programmer, I finished the first playable prototype in 3 hours.
- As a programmer, I implemented the character controls, random item generation, item collision detection and the whole game flow.

Tired of governments knowing what you do online? Try Relakks, or rather wait a bit to try Relakks.
The idea is that they offer a special VPN Server over which all your network traffic will be handled, encrypted. The interest in the last few days has been so big though that they had to close registration to get more VPN Servers and handle payment a little bit more efficiently it seems. Congratulations to them!

This view is meaningful only for a static fragment of the hierarchy
Objects' properties may change, but not which properties they have.
Therefore, dynamic elements of the hierarchy (see SetAccess)
do not implement service PropertyHierarchy.
If such elements occur as properties or subproperties of an implementation,
it is not specified whether direct subproperty access using
::com::sun::star::beans::XHierarchicalPropertySet or
::com::sun::star::beans::XMultiHierarchicalPropertySet can
be used to access descendants of such elements.
Similarly, information about such descendants may not be available from
the ::com::sun::star::beans::XHierarchicalPropertySetInfo
the implementation provides.
If an implementation is part of a read-only view of the hierarchy,
all properties and subproperties will be reported as having attribute
PropertyAttribute::READONLY set,
and attempts to change property values will fail.

Syllogism as a tool to determine why one statement is true and another false
With imperative programming you construct programs as a sort of to-do list. Do this, then do this, then do this.  So a function in imperative programming is really not similar to a function in math but is rather a subroutine, a repeatable unit of code
A “pure function” is a function that takes an input and returns a value:
f(x) = x + 1 # f(3) = 4
f(x) = x + 1 # f(3) = 4
JavaScript's C-like syntax, including curly braces and the clunky for statement, makes it appear to be an ordinary procedural language. This is misleading because JavaScript has more in common with functional languages like Lisp or Scheme than with C or Java. It has arrays instead of lists and objects instead of property lists. Functions are first class. It has closures. You get lambdas without having to balance all those parens.http://www.crockford.com/javascript/javascript.html
f(x) = x + 1 # f(3) = 4
CoffeeScript:
f = (x) -> x + 1
f(3) # => 4
# function = ->
# var not needed
# return is implicit
var add = function(x, y){ return x + y; }
add = (x, y) -> x + y
# lists
nums = [1, 2, 3, 4]
# list comprehensions
cubes = (math.cube num for num in list)
# this = @
@var
# first class functions
add = (x, y) -> x + y
add 1, 2
# => 3
# anonymous functions
(foo) -> foo + 1
# higher order functions
# - accepts one or more functions as arguments
# - function returns another function
calc = (op, nums...) -> nums.reduce op
calc add, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
# => 15
[1, 2, 3].map (num) -> num + 1
# => [3, 6, 9]
[1, 2, 3].reduce (memo, num) -> memo + num
# => 6
sum = (nums...) -> nums.reduce add
sum 1, 2, 3, 4
# => 10
