Applied Predictive Technologies' software helps businesses run internal experiments on offline data like in-store purchases. In this case competition, a client was interested in determining the effect of several varieties of poster campaign on profits. We used hypothesis testing on several months of sales data from a test and control group to determine whether various iterations of a sales campaign had a positive effect on profits. Our presentation won third place.
The full slides are available here.
Identify possible confounding variables available in data set
Verify that treatment group and control group have similar distributions of possible confounding variables
Plot and compare profits by product across treatment and control groups
Choose best statistic for hypothesis test: percent mean difference for each store over weeks before and weeks after campaign.
Run t-tests on each campaign
Check correlations between test statistic and possible confounding variables
Analyze relationship between sales of different products to determine overall effect on products
Provide recommendation for continuing poster campaign
For modeling and plotting, we used R and Python, including Pandas for some data manipulation and standardization.


I have chosen to use the following fonts for my site:
Think about the last time you went to a doctor’s office website? Was it clunky, or messy and hard to use? I have found in my employers’ website that the User Experience is poorly orchestrated, and the User Interface is not well designed. I would like to use my time and web design skills to build a new and well-designed website for my employer, a doctor’s office, in San Antonio, TX. My website will be superior to the current website because I will be designing with the user in mind from the bottom up to make the best user experience possible for a medical website. This is important to the patients and customers of the office, and a well-designed website can bring in future patients, and more people.
The purpose of this website would be to encourage new patients to reach out and begin working with our office. The end goal is to increase revenue and daily patient in-take through website design, and ample resource of information for new and existing patients. The website is built to encourage new members of the area, or those looking to switch doctors to switch to our office over others and encourage return visits. This is done through reviews, and open access to information about our office and our history with patients. This will also be done through a redesign of the online patient reservation system, allowing patients to book appointments online in a quicker and more effective manner.
One of the audiences for the website and our business is older aged members of the community, they tend to be at a higher need for medical care and need to be catered to in a fashion in order to establish care and join our practice. They are looking for good well-rounded care, that is hassle free and not too expensive. Their needs are not being met through the current website due to poor User Interface, and bad user experience. This audience will usually use the website through a desktop computer, due to a lack of smartphones in the age group.
Mercy Wellness Clinic’s purpose is to expand the small healthcare market of Spring Branch, TX while providing excellent patient care at affordable prices. We do this to help bring those in need of medical services to medical care that is affordable and accessible at great hours, and to staff that are well trained and accessible 24/7 for any patients needs. We strive to create a professional environment where patients feel safe to receive treatment and work hard to bettering themselves. We work hard to focus on all the members of our community and make sure everyone and their families are receiving the best medical care possible.

Sichuan chili oil
Rich, but very spicy oil, used in a lot of sichuan style chinese cooking. It is more powerful when it's completely fresh, but keeps up well enough for a couple of weeks/months in the refrigerator in our experience.

The report that Boris Johnson is refusing to publish says it cannot rule out Russian interference in the Brexit referendum
by Adam Payne- A report into possible Russian interference cannot rule out the possibility that the Kremlin impacted the 2016 Brexit vote.
- The UK Intelligence and Security Committee said Russia could have influenced the British decision to leave the European Union, according to The Times newspaper.
- Boris Johnson is under growing pressure to publish the report.
- It also raises questions about links between himself and the Conservative party to Russian donors.
- However, the UK government is not set to publish it until after the December 12 general election.
- Visit Business Insider’s homepage for more stories.
A report into possible Russian interference that Boris Johnson’s government is refusing to publish reportedly said that the Kremlin may have affected the 2016 Brexit referendum.
The Times newspaper reports that the UK Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee was not able to rule out the possibility that Russia influenced the British vote to leave the European Union.
The committee concluded that any Russian interference in the 2016 vote was ultimately “unquantifiable.”
The report criticised British intelligence services for not devoting enough resources to combating the threat of Vladimir Putin’s Russian regime to the UK, the Times adds. The committee studied possible Russian interference in British democracy for 18 months.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson is under growing pressure to publish the report.
The UK Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee, chaired by Dominic Grieve, gave Johnson its report weeks ago. However, the UK government is not set to publish it until after the December 12 general election.
Last week, former US presidential candidate, Hilary Clinton, said it was “inexplicable and shameful” that the UK government had not already released its findings.
She told the BBC she was “dumbfounded” by the decision and added: “Every person who votes in this country deserves to see that report before your election happens.
“Because there is no doubt – we know it in our country, we have seen it in Europe, we have seen it here – that Russia, in particular, is determined to try to shape the politics of western democracies.
“Not to our benefit, but to theirs.”
The report also reportedly raises questions about links between Johnson, his Conservative party, and Russian donors.
Nine recent Russian donors to the Tory party were named in the report, it emerged over the weekend.
The report identified close links between these donors to the Conservative party and the Russian government.
Among those donors named in the suppressed report are Alexander Temerko, who worked for the Russian defence ministry and has previously boasted that the prime minister is his “friend”.
Temerko donated more than £1.2m to the Conservatives over the past seven years.
Other Russian donors to the Conservative party include Lubov Chernukhin, who is married to Vladimir Chernukhin, a former ally of Putin.
Chernukhin previously paid £160,000 for a tennis match with Johnson and former prime minister David Cameron and has donated more than £450,000 in the past year.
A recent investigation by Open Democracy last week found that the Conservative Party received at least £498,850, or about $US642,000, from Russian business executives and their associates between November 2018 and last month.
This was a significant increase from the previous year when such donations amounted to less than £350,000.
The increase came despite increased pressure on the party to cut its ties to Russian oligarchs since the poisoning of Sergei and Yulia Skripal in Salisbury last year.


Tristan Thompson wants Khloé Kardashian back - he's still in love
- Tristan Thompson was caught cheating and Khloé Kardashian kicked him to the curb
- However, the Canadian basketball player is still in love with Khloé and he wants to win her back
- According to a source, she's not interested in taking Tristan back and giving him another chance
Channel24 reports that Tristan Thompson knows he messed up and is still very much in love with Khloé Kardashian.
The Canadian professional basketball player was caught cheating on Khloé with her sister, Kylie Jenner's bestie.
Khloé had decided enough was enough - this wasn't the first time Tristan was unfaithful.
But the sportsman is not giving up and is constantly sending an uninterested Khloé gifts and complimenting her.
He isn't trying to be subtle either - he comments on her Instagram with no worry about what people will think or say.
Recently, Tristan had a lot of praise for his famous ex when she won a People's Choice Award.
But a source says Khloé is happy with how things are now and will continue to co-parent True with Tristan, but that's all.
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that it seemed that Kim Kardashian is trying to live up to the standard of her husband's new lifestyle.
Since Kanye West began his Christian journey and made it public, he has been affecting and influencing the lives of people in America, and apparently, his family is leading this new life with him.
PAY ATTENTION: Download our mobile app to enjoy the latest news update
In recent times, the fashion world has noticed a dramatic change in Kardashian's dress sense and many people suspect that it might have a lot to do with her husband's desired conservative lifestyle.
Recall that an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians showed the drama that ensued over Kim's look to the Met Gala ball that held on May 6. "Born again" Kanye complained about his wife looking "too good to the eye" and she kicked back.

Ashley Young says Ole Gunnar Solskjaer being Man Utd boss is 'like Fergie walked back in'
The veteran full back believes Solskjaer shares many of the character traits that Sir Alex Ferguson possessed during his 26 years at Old Trafford
by Alex MilneAshley Young says he can see similarities between the style of management Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has implemented at Manchester United and that of the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson.
Solskjaer played under Ferguson from 1996-2007 at Old Trafford and has often spoke of the influence his former boss has had on his own managerial career.
While Solskjaer has yet to achieve even a fraction of what Ferguson did at the club, Young, who was signed for United by Ferguson, says the two men share many characteristics.
"Since he came in it was like the boss had walked back through the door," Young said. "Same traits, same winning mentality, same desire, hunger. He has been here as a player and know what the club is.
"That is what the club wanted and you can see at times in training he wants to put his boots on and join it. It has been fantastic and it's like the boss has walked back in the door."
In spite of their mixed start to the season, Young sees positive signs for the future, and praised Solskjaer for his impact on the amount of youth team players who are coming through at the club.
Young added: "To see the likes of Mason (Greenwood), Jimmy (James Garner). Chongy (Tahith Chong), Angel (Gomes), Brandon (Williams) to name a few they have done fantastically well.
"They have come in and it's a great opportunity for them when they get minutes on the pitch.
"That is the way the club is when you see youngsters doing well they come through to the first team throughout the years. They have to keep working hard in training, keep listening and keep learning to people giving them the right advice to improve themselves."
United face Partizan Belgrade in the Europa League on Thursday looking to bounce back from their disappointing 1-0 loss to Bournemouth at the weekend.

Events of the Year
Ride the the Longest Mountain Bike Trail Ever!
The GDMBR, developed and mapped in 1997 by the Adventure Cycling Association, is approximately 2,700 miles long and is considered to be the birthplace of bikepacking as a sport. The route follows the Continental Divide and is 90% off-pavement using high-quality dirt roads, gravel roads, trails, and a few short sections of unmaintained tracks. Bikepacking the GDMBR requires only intermediate off-road mountain biking skills, but it is a painstaking test of endurance based on the sheer scale of the route, with over 200,000 feet (60,960 meters) of elevation gain and loss.

--- layout: post title: Building PepTown with .NET: App Overview date: 2019-03-25 12:00:00 keywords: dotnet peptown xamarin teaser: PepTown is our smartphone-based fundraising solution for high-school sports teams. The architecture of PepTown is .NET throughout. This blog entry is an overview of some of the choices we made when building the mobile app. ---
PepTown is our smartphone-based fundraising solution for high-school sports teams. The architecture of PepTown is .NET throughout, including Xamarin.Forms, Reactive Extensions, and ASP.NET Core.
This blog entry is an overview of some of the choices we made when building the client side of PepTown, a Xamarin app for Android and iOS.
We use Xamarin.Forms, but some folks might look at our code and think that we don't.
We don't use XAML. We don't even use the Xamarin.Forms binding mechanism. The only parts that we use are the wrappers around the native controls and the layout system.
Each page (or partial page, or cell) is implemented with a viewmodel. Those viewmodel classes interact with the actual UI controls through an Rx-centric API. This API is quite narrow, containing only the things that a viewmodel would need. For example, the API cares about the text on a label, the items in a list, and the actions that happen on a button tap, but it has no concept of layouts or fonts.
For example, for a Button, the API provided to our viewmodels looks like this:
public Func<TViewModel,IObservable<string>> Text { get; set; } public Func<TViewModel,IObservable<string>> ImagePath { get; set; } public Func<TViewModel,IObservable<Unit>,IDisposable> Click { get; set; } public Func<TViewModel,IObservable<bool>> Enabled { get; set; } public Func<TViewModel,IObservable<bool>> Visible { get; set; }
The button control gets (from the viewmodel) Text, ImagePath, Enabled and Visible. The viewmodel gets (from the button control) notifications of when the button was tapped/clicked.
So all of the business logic for our app resides in assemblies that do not have a dependency on the Xamarin.Forms package. All layout and aesthetic issues are handled at a separate layer
In that layer, for each viewmodel, we have a function that gets an object that contains a reference to all the controls. The job of that function is simply to style those controls, put them into a layout, and return the layout.
For example, here is a snippet from the beginning of the layout function for a football scoreboard:
public View CreateLayout(IXFReadOnlyLiveFootballCompositeViewControls vc) { vc.SchoolName.HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center; vc.SchoolName.FontSize = Device.GetNamedSize(NamedSize.Small, typeof(Label)); vc.OpponentName.HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center; vc.OpponentName.FontSize = Device.GetNamedSize(NamedSize.Small, typeof(Label)); vc.Versus.HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.Center; vc.Versus.FontSize = Device.GetNamedSize(NamedSize.Micro, typeof(Label)); StackLayout schoolsInfoHeader = new StackLayout { Padding = 10, Spacing = 1, Orientation = StackOrientation.Vertical, BackgroundColor = LayoutHelper.DEFAULT_GRAY, Children = { vc.SchoolName, vc.Versus, vc.OpponentName } };
This highlights one of the reasons why we don't use XAML -- we want the creation of widgets to be very separate from the styling and layout of same. In contrast, XAML intermingles the creation and styling and layout of controls all in one place.
One of the classic benefits of a viewmodel is that it is testable. Since the viewmodel doesn't have any dependencies on platform or UI specific stuff, we can write tests that create the viewmodel and pretend to be the UI.
One approach we use here is that we implemented a fake Xamarin.Forms library that does not actually create UI controls, but rather, exposes an API we can use to write scripts. Those scripts are simply things that are pretending to be the user.
So we have a scripting version of our "app" which is a console app running under .NET Core. Instead of referencing the real Xamarin.Forms package, it references our fake Xamarin.Forms scripting library.
For example, a typical test script starts with our fake user choosing a favorite school:
contentFrame .FindButton(nameof(ISFWelcomeViewControls.SetFavoriteSchool)) .Tap() ; await contentFrame.WaitForView(typeof(SetFavoriteSchoolView)); contentFrame .FindButton(nameof(ISFSetFavoriteSchoolViewControls.State)) .Tap(); ; await contentFrame.WaitForView(typeof(ChooseStateView)); await contentFrame .FindListView(nameof(ISFChooseStateViewControls.StateItems)) .Items .Where(a => a?.Count > 0) .Take(1) ; contentFrame .FindListView(nameof(ISFChooseStateViewControls.StateItems)) .TapItem<StateCellViewModel>(st => st.Params.Id == "IL") ; await contentFrame.WaitForView(typeof(SetFavoriteSchoolView));
This script, pretending to be a user, taps on a button to brings up the SetFavoriteSchool viewmodel, then it taps on the button to choose a state, and waits for the list of states to get its items, and then taps on the state for Illinois.
It would be basically accurate to say that PepTown is written in C#.
It might be even more accurate to say that the viewmodels are written not in C#, but rather, in a domain specific language (DSL) that is compiled to C#. I'm stretching the definition of a "language" a little bit, because our language doesn't [currently] have a textual representation.
But I still think of it as a DSL. The first stage of a typical compiler takes a textual representation and converts it to a data structure. Well, our DSL has that data structure, and we process it to generate the C# class for the viewmodel.
For example, here is a snippet from the definition of the viewmodel which shows color and mascot information for a school:
.SetButtonAction("MenuEditMascot", new ViewModelInvocation("UpdateSchoolMascot") .AddArgument_PassThru("SchoolId", "Id") )
When someone wants to edit the school mascot info, we bring up the UpdateSchoolMascot viewmodel with the SchoolId as a parameter.
BTW, not only does our DSL not have a textual representation, it also lacks a name. We informally refer to it as "AutoGen".
AutoGen provides us a higher-level abstraction, allowing us to avoid manual repetition of common stuff. The viewmodel mentioned above is defined in 44 lines, but AutoGen converts that into a viewmodel class of over 1,000 lines of C#.
AutoGen also has a somewhat rudimentary type system. For example, we have a SchoolTeams viewmodel that shows a list of teams. The "item tapped" action for that list control will launch the TeamSchedule viewmodel to show the events for that team, so it needs to pass the Team Id as a parameter. For every viewmodel invocation, AutoGen will verify that the parameters are provided and of the proper types. If you try to pass a CoachId into a parameter that requires a TeamId, AutoGen will complain. This allows us to catch errors much earlier.
AutoGen isn't quite expressive enough to describe everything PepTown does, so in a few cases we augment the generated viewmodel class manually. Those handwritten methods amount to less than one percent of all the viewmodel code.


Cyclone claims 2 lives as Bangladesh, India evacuate hundreds of thousands
Cyclone Bulbul hit India on Saturday, leaving two dead, as authorities in the country and in neighbouring Bangladesh ordered hundreds of thousands of people to get out of the path of the storm as it gained power.
The eye of the storm, packing winds of up to 120km/h, was expected to hit the Bay of Bengal coast late in Saturday near the Bangladesh-India frontier.
Airports and ports were shut down and the deaths were reported before the full force of the cyclone had hit. One person was killed by an uprooted tree in Kolkata and another by a wall that collapsed under the force of the winds in Odisha state, authorities said.
More than 60 000 people were moved away from the coast on the Indian side of the border, while the Bangladesh government said 400 000 had been evacuated.
Bangladeshi troops were sent to some villages, while about 55 000 volunteers went door-to-door and making loudspeaker announcements in the streets to get people away from the danger zone in villages, many of which are below sea level.
A storm surge up to two metres high was predicted along the coast, Bangladesh's Meteorological Department said.
About 1 500 tourists were stranded on the southern island of Saint Martin after boat services were suspended due to bad weather.
Bangladesh's two biggest ports, Mongla and Chittagong, were closed because of the storm, and flights into Chittagong airport were halted.
Flights suspended
In India, flights in and out of Kolkata airport were suspended for 12 hours because of the storm.
On the West Bengal island of Mousouni, which lies in the path of the storm, frightened residents took shelter in schools and government buildings because they had not been able to escape.
Military planes and ships have been put on standby to help in emergencies, Indian authorities said.
Bulbul was expected to hit the coast at the Sundarbans, the world's largest mangrove forest, which straddles Bangladesh and part of eastern India, and is home to endangered species including the Bengal tiger.
Bangladesh's low-lying coast, home to 30 million people, is regularly battered by cyclones that leave a trail of destruction.
Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed in cyclones in recent decades.
While the frequency and intensity have increased, partly due to climate change, the death tolls have come down because of faster evacuations and the building of 4 000 cyclone shelters along the coast.
In November 2007, Cyclone Sidr killed more than 3 000 people. In May this year, Fani became the most powerful storm to hit the country in five years, but the death toll was about 12.

JUDY BERLIN a film review by Athan Bezaitis. Copyright filmcritic.com 2000
JUDY BERLIN has the unmistakable characteristics of a Woody Allen film (though it's not one). Its cerebral humor, rash characters, and ensemble cast are gelled with a very Allenesque theme: that life has simply passed by the small, predominantly Jewish community of Babylon, Long Island. First time director Eric Mendelsohn, who reportedly worked with Allen on several films, shoots in black and white, and effectively paints a dreary reality for the people of the small suburb.
As the story goes, it is the second day of school and the fall is in full swing. David Gold (Aaron Harnick) has returned to his parent's home after spending time working in the film business in California. He runs into old high school classmate Judy Berlin (Edie Falco - from HBO's Oz and The Sopranos), an outspoken yet dimwitted aspiring actress on her way to Hollywood that very evening. The story follows their respective families as Judy and David spend the day reminiscing while a solar eclipse darkens the town.
The real substance of the film lies in its characters and the stellar cast.  Madeline Kahn (YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN) is Alice Gold, a recovering alcoholic who has alienated her son David and her husband Arthur (Bob Dishy). Best known for her comedic roles, Kahn (recently deceased) puts on an Oscar-worthy performance as a mother who has awakened from a mysterious slumber caused by the eclipse, discovering she is an embittered housewife with a dismal existence. Her portrayal exudes a sad sincerity with her nasal voice and methodical stroll, but manages to stay light and funny as Kahn weaves her magic. Finally, Julie Kavner (best known for her voice as Marge Simpson) adds an extra dose of laughter into the mix with some great one-liners.
Worthy of much praise is Mendelsohn, who manages to twist an average suburban town into a strange and majestic place filled with dark and unexpected imagery. The film is definitely "artsy" and heavily symbol-laden via the eclipse and the setting in "Babylon," a stark contrast from the thriving Biblical polis.
Despite its endearing qualities, the film has its flaws, especially the blaring harpsichord score, which serves as musical interlude. Also, I found the character of Judy Berlin to be too unbelievable -- everything from her zaniness to the railroad-looking "adult braces" she was wearing.
Overall, the film is a score for Mendelsohn, who should get plenty of opportunity to establish himself as tour de force director in Hollywood.

Directory: PReport\DEMO\Demos\02_MulticolumnDemo
You will know how to create a multicolumn report in this example. This report prints all records from the CUSTOMERS table of the DBDEMOS alias in two columns.
- Create new Delphi project. Put TTable component on the form, set its properties to: DatabaseName = DBDEMOS, TableName = CUSTOMER.DB, then put TprReport component.
- Double-clicks on the icon of TprReport component to edit the report template.
- Add the report title band, click on a button for this and select "Report title" from the appeared menu.
- Put TprMemoObj object into the created band, click on a button for this. Double-clicks on the memo object and in the appeared window on the page "Text" enter the report title, for example "List of customers". The object has all borders by default, it can be changed on page "Borders".
- Add detail band (click on button and select "Detail").
- Open the properties window for the added detail band.
- Go to "Data" page and select dataset named "Table1" from the list in appeared window.
- Go to "Columns" page and enter 2 in field "Columns count", (report will have two columns).
- Do the following for print the dataset fields:
- Add the object TprMemoObj with text "[Table1.CustNo]" - this memo will print the value of CustNo field.
- Add the object TprMemoObj with text "[Table1. Company] (Country - [Table1.Country])" - this memo will print the values of two fields: Company and Country.
After all this operations you receive something like:
In this demo also is demonstrates how to change the mode of creation multicolumn report. Value of the TprHDetailBand.ColDirection property is changed in the event handler of Button1 button, this value depends from the user selection. The TprHDetailBand.ColDirection property can have one of two values:
prcdTopBottomLeftRight - the columns is created from top to down then from left to right
prcdLeftRightTopBottom - the columns is created from left to right then from top to down

FROM: OFFICE OF REVD.FR David CLARK DIRECTOR SPECIAL DUTIES,UNITED NATIONS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND WORLD BANK SPECIAL DUTIES,OFFICE DAKAR,SENEGAL. TEL:+221-448-8469 EMAIL<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Dear Friend. I am Rev. Fr. David Clark, a senior staff with the UN special duties office,my office monitors and controls the affairs of all banks and financial institutions. I have before me list of funds, which could not be transferred to some nominated accounts as these accounts have been identified either as ghost accounts, unclaimed deposits and over-invoiced sum etc; I have the opportunity to write you based on the instructions among others i received days ago from the officer in the computer section in person of Engineer Peter Cliff,to bring out part of your total pending payment with reference number(LM-05-371) amounting US$10 million.The (Ten Million Dollars) is been arranged in a security-proof box weighing 75kg. In order to get the box shipped to you. As I found out that you have almost met all the statutory requirements in respect of your pending payment. The problems you are having is that of interest groups. A lot of people are interested in your payment and those people are merely doing paper works with you and that explains why you receive different kinds of untrue fax and phone messages from different people everyday. Also we found out that some of the officials of the parastatals have been extorting a lot of money from you with the pretext of helping you receive your money. I can assure you this will keep happening if you do not do away with those officers. For security reasons you do not have to tell anybody that your have your payment on the way until the payment gets to you. The said payment is been arranged in a security-proof box weighing 75kg. In order to get this box shipped to you,the(CSO)and i Yesterday went to this four courier companies Dhl, Ems, FedEx and Ups to make arrangements on how to get the box shipped to you by courier, but to no avail the above courier companies all made us to understand that they will have to open the box for inspection by the customs before shipment. This is something we want to avoid because this box is been padded with synthetic nylon and to open it you will have to cut the pad before you will meet the button that you will press to open the dial code-lock. There is no way you can open the box and be able to close it again because it was padded with machine. We told the courier services that the box contained film materials and when open will spoil the materials. <N:B> we did not declare money because courier does not carry money. Today a friend of mine who is a diplomat disclosed to me that there is a security courier service company that is specialized in sending diplomatic materials and information from one country to another, which also has diplomatic immunity and consignment such as this cannot be checked by any customs anywhere in the world. I have therefore met the official of the security courier service and concluded shipping arrangement with them, which they will commence as soon as I have your go ahead order. The diplomat who will be bringing in this consignment to you is an expert and has been in this line of work for many years now so we have Notting to worry about. After all arrangements we have concluded that you must donate Five Hundred Thousand United States dollars (US$500,000.00) to any charity organisation I designate as soon as you receive your money. To this effect, you will send to us a promissory note for the donation along with your address where you will like the box to be delivered to by the courier. Please maintain topmost secrecy as it may cause a lot of problems if found out that we are using this way to help you. You are advised not to inform anyone about this until you received your money.  When you conclude this and you send fufill the agreement, we will help to ship the final part of your money to you. May God be with you as i await your response. Feel free to call me if you will like us to discuses more. Yours Faithfully, Revd. Fr. David Clark. Director, Special Duties.UN/WBF. TEL:+221-448-8469

Shaking her head, Egwene walked back to the doors she had dismissed. She had to go somewhere. Inside the first, the few furnishings were shapeless mounds under dusty cloths, and the air seemed stale, as if the door had not been opened in some time. She grimaced; there were mouse tracks in the dust on the floor. But no others. Two more doors, opened hastily, showed the same thing. It was no surprise. There were many more empty rooms than occupied in the Accepted’s galleries.
When she pulled her head out of the third room, Nynaeve and Elayne were coming down the ramp behind her with no particular haste.
“Is she hiding?” Nynaeve asked in surprise. “In there?”
“I lost her.” Egwene peered both ways along the curving gallery again. Where did she go? She did not mean Else.
“If I had thought Else could outrun you,” Elayne said with a smile, “I’d have chased her, too, but she has always looked too plump for running to me.” Her smile was worried, though.
“We will have to find her later,” Nynaeve said, “and make sure she knows to keep her mouth shut. How could the Amyrlin trust that girl?”
“I thought I was right on top of her,” Egwene said slowly, “but it was someone else. Nynaeve, I turned my back for a moment, and she was gone. Not Else—I never even saw her!—the woman I thought was Else at first. She was just—gone, and I don’t know where.”
Elayne’s breath caught. “One of the Soulless?” She looked around hastily, but the gallery was still empty except for the three of them.
“Not her,” Egwene said firmly. “She—” I am not going to tell them she made me feel six years old, with a torn dress, a dirty face, and a runny nose. “She was no Gray Man.  You’d notice her in a crowd of a thousand. I have never seen her before, but I think she is Aes Sedai. She must be.”
Nynaeve waited, as though for more, then said impatiently, “If you see her again, point her out to me. If you think there’s cause. We’ve no time to stand here talking. I mean to see what is in that storeroom before Else has a chance to tell the wrong person about it. Maybe they were careless. Let’s not give them a chance to correct it, if they were.”
As she fell in beside Nynaeve, with Elayne on the other side, Egwene realized she still had the stone ring—Corianin Nedeal’s ter’angreal—clutched in her fist. Reluctantly, she tucked it into her pouch and pulled the drawstrings tight. As long as I don’t go to sleep with the bloody—But that’s what I am planning, isn’t it?
But that was for tonight, and no use worrying about it now. As they made their way through the Tower, she kept an eye out for the woman in silver and white. She was not sure why she was relieved not to see her. I am a grown woman, and quite capable, thank you. Still, she was just as glad that no one they encountered looked even remotely like her. The more she thought of the woman, the more she felt there was something—wrong—about her. Light, I am starting to see the Black Ajah under my bed. Only, maybe they are under the bed.
The library stood a little apart from the tall, thick shaft of the White Tower proper, its pale stone heavily streaked with blue, and it looked much like crashing waves frozen at their climax. Those waves loomed as large as a palace in the morning light, and Egwene knew they certainly contained as many rooms as one, but all those rooms—those below the odd corridors in the upper levels, where Verin had her chambers—were filled with shelves, and the shelves filled with books, manuscripts, papers, scrolls, maps, and charts, collected from every nation over the course of three thousand years. Not even the great libraries in Tear and Cairhien held so many.
The librarians—Brown sisters all—guarded those shelves, and guarded the doors as closely, to make sure not a scrap of paper left unless they knew who took it and why. But it was not to one of the guarded entrances that Nynaeve led Egwene and Elayne.
Around the foundations of the library, lying flat to the ground in the shade of tall pecan trees, were other doors, both large and small. Laborers sometimes needed access to the storerooms beneath, and the librarians did not approve of sweating men tracking through their preserve. Nynaeve pulled up one of those, no bigger than the front door of a farmhouse, and motioned the others down a steep flight of stairs descending into darkness. When she let it down behind them, all light vanished.
Egwene opened herself to saidar—it came so smoothly that she barely realized what she was doing—and channeled a trickle of the Power that flooded through her. For a moment the mere feel of that rush surging within her threatened to overwhelm other sensations. A small ball of bluish-white light appeared, balanced in the air above her hand. She took a deep breath and reminded herself of why she was walking stiffly. It was a link to the rest of the world. The feel of her linen shift against her skin returned, of woolen stockings, and her dress. With a small pang of regret, she banished the desire to pull in more, to let saidar absorb her.
Elayne made a glowing sphere for herself at the same time, and the pair provided more light than two lanterns would have. “It feels so—wonderful, doesn’t it?” she murmured.
“Be careful,” Egwene said.
“I am.” Elayne sighed. “It just feels . . . I will be careful.”
“This way,” Nynaeve told them sharply and brushed by to lead them down. She did not go too far ahead. She was not angry, and had to use the light the other two provided.
The dusty side corridor by which they had entered, lined with wooden doors set in gray stone walls, took nearly a hundred paces to reach the much wider main hall that ran the length of the library. Their lights showed footprints overlaying footprints in the dust, most from the large boots men would wear and most themselves faded by dust. The ceiling was higher here, and some of the doors nearly large enough for a barn. The main stairs at the end, half the width of the hall, were where large things were brought down. Another flight beside them led deeper. Nynaeve took it without a pause.
Egwene followed quickly. The bluish light washed out Elayne’s face, but Egwene thought it still looked paler than it should. We could scream our lungs out down here, and no one would hear a whimper.
She felt a lightning bolt form, or the potential for one, and nearly stumbled. She had never before channeled two flows at once; it did not seem difficult at all.
The main hall of the second basement was much like the first level, wide and dusty but with a lower ceiling. Nynaeve hurried to the third door on the right and stopped.
The door was not large, but its rough wooden planks somehow gave an impression of thickness. A round iron lock hung from a length of stout chain that was drawn tight through two thick staples, one in the door, the other cemented into the wall. Lock and chain alike had the look of newness; there was almost no dust on them.
“A lock!” Nynaeve jerked at it; the chain had no give, and neither did the lock. “Did either of you see a lock anywhere else?” She pulled it again, then flung it against the door hard enough to bounce. The bang echoed down the hall. “I did not see one other locked door!” She pounded a fist on the rough wood. “Not one!”
“Calm yourself,” Elayne said. “There is no need to throw a tantrum. I could open the lock myself, if I could see how the inside of it works. We will open it some way.”
“I do not want to calm myself,” Nynaeve snapped. “I want to be furious! I want . . . !”
Letting the rest of the tirade fade from her awareness, Egwene touched the chain. She had learned more things than how to make lightning bolts since leaving Tar Valon. One was an affinity for metal. That came from Earth, one of the Five Powers few women had much strength in—the other was Fire—but she had it, and she could feel the chain, feel inside the chain, feel the tiniest bits of the cold metal, the patterns they made. The Power within her quivered in time to the vibrations of those patterns.
“Move out of my way, Egwene.”
She looked around and saw Nynaeve wrapped in the glow of saidar and holding a prybar so close in color to the blue-white of the light that it was nearly invisible. Nynaeve frowned at the chain, muttered something about leverage, and the prybar was suddenly twice as long.
“Move, Egwene.”
Egwene moved.
Thrusting the end of the prybar through the chain, Nynaeve braced it, then heaved with all her strength. The chain snapped like thread, Nynaeve gasped and stumbled halfway across the hall in surprise, and the prybar clattered to the floor. Straightening, Nynaeve stared from the bar to the chain in amazement. The prybar vanished.
“I think I did something to the chain,” Egwene said. And I wish I knew what.
“You could have said something,” Nynaeve muttered. She pulled the rest of the chain from the staples and threw open the door. “Well? Are you going to stand there all day?”
The dusty room inside was perhaps ten paces square, but it held only a heap of large bags made of heavy brown cloth, each stuffed full, tagged, and sealed with the Flame of Tar Valon. Egwene did not have to count them to know there were thirteen.
She moved her ball of light to the wall and fastened it there; she was not certain how she did it, but when she took her hand away, the light remained. I keep learning how to do things without knowing what they are, she thought nervously.
Elayne frowned at her as if considering, then hung her light on the wall, too. Watching, Egwene thought she saw what it was she had done. She learned it from me, but I just learned it from her. She shivered.
Nynaeve went straight to tumbling the bags apart and reading the tags. “Rianna. Joiya Byir. These are what we are after.” She examined the seal on one bag, then broke the wax and unwound the binding cords. “At least we know no one’s been here before us.”
Egwene chose a bag and broke the seal without reading the name on the tag. She did not really want to know whose possessions she was searching. When she upended them onto the dusty floor, they proved to be mainly old clothes and shoes, with a few ripped and crumpled papers of the sort that might hide under the wardrobe of a woman who was not too assiduous in seeing her rooms cleaned. “I don’t see anything useful here. A cloak that would not do for rags. A torn half of a map of some city. Tear, it says in the corner. Three stockings that need darning.” She stuck her finger through the hole in a velvet slipper that had no mate and waggled it at the others. “This one left no clues behind.”
“Amico did not leave anything, either,” Elayne said glumly, tossing clothes aside with both hands. “It might as well be rags. Wait, here’s a book. Whoever bundled these up must have been in a hurry to toss in a book. Customs and Ceremonies of the Tairen Court. The cover is torn off, but the librarians will want it anyway.” The librarians certainly would. No one threw away books, no matter how badly damaged.
“Tear,” Nynaeve said in flat voice. Kneeling amid the clutter from the bag she was searching, she retrieved a scrap of paper she had already thrown away. “A list of trading ships on the Erinin, with the dates they sailed from Tar Valon and the dates they were expected to arrive in Tear.”
“It could be coincidence,” Egwene said slowly.
“Perhaps,” Nynaeve said. She folded the paper and tucked it up her sleeve, then broke the seal on another bag.
When they finally finished, every bag searched twice and discarded rubbish heaped around the edges of the room, Egwene sat down on one of the empty bags, so engrossed that she barely noticed her own wince. Drawing up her knees, she studied the little collection they had made, all laid in a row.
“It is too much,” Elayne said. “There is too much of it.”
“Too much,” Nynaeve agreed.
There was a second book, a tattered, leather-bound volume entitled Observations on a Visit to Tear, with half its pages falling out. Caught in the lining of a badly torn cloak in Chesmal Emry’s bag, where it might have slipped through a rip in one of the pockets of the cloak, had been another list of trading vessels. It said no more than the names, but they were all on the other list, too, and according to that, those vessels all had sailed in the early morning after the night Liandrin and the others left the Tower. There was a hastily sketched plan of some large building, with one room faintly noted as “Heart of the Stone,” and a page with the names of five inns, the word “Tear” heading the page badly smudged but barely readable. There was . . .
“There’s something from everyone,” Egwene muttered. “Every one of them left something pointing to a journey to Tear. How could anyone miss seeing it, if they looked? Why did the Amyrlin say nothing of this?”
“The Amyrlin,” Nynaeve said bitterly, “keeps her own counsel, and what matter if we burn for it!” She drew a deep breath, and sneezed from the dust they had stirred up. “What worries me is that I am looking at bait.”
“Bait?” Egwene said. But she saw it as soon as she spoke.
Nynaeve nodded. “Bait. A trap. Or maybe a diversion. But trap or diversion, it’s so obvious no one could be taken in by it.”
“Unless they do not care whether whoever found this saw the trap or not.” Uncertainty tinged Elayne’s voice. “Or perhaps they meant it to be so obvious that whoever found it would dismiss Tear immediately.”
Egwene wished she could not believe that the Black Ajah could be as sure of themselves as that. She realized she was gripping her pouch in her fingers, running her thumb along the twisted curve of the stone ring inside. “Perhaps they meant to taunt whoever found it,” she said softly. “Perhaps they thought whoever found this would rush headlong after them, in anger and pride.” Did they know we would find it? Do they see us that way?
“Burn me!” Nynaeve growled. It was a shock; Nynaeve never used such language.
For a time they simply stared in silence at the array.
“What do we do now?” Elayne asked finally.
Egwene squeezed the ring hard. Dreaming was closely linked to Foretelling; the future, and events in other places, could appear in a Dreamer’s dreams. “Maybe we will know after tonight.”
Nynaeve looked at her, silent and expressionless; then chose out a dark skirt that seemed not to have too many holes and rips, and began bundling in it the things they had found. “For now,” she said, “we will take this back to my room and hide it. I think we just have time, if we don’t want to be late to the kitchens.”
Late, Egwene thought. The longer she held the ring through her pouch, the greater the urgency she felt. We’re already a step behind, but maybe we won’t be too late.


Next: Declarative Method Combination, Previous: Applying method combination to the sorted list of applicable methods, Up: Method Selection and Combination
Standard method combination is supported by the class standard-generic-function. It is used if no other type of method combination is specified or if the built-in method combination type standard is specified.
Primary methods define the main action of the effective method, while auxiliary methods modify that action in one of three ways. A primary method has no method qualifiers.
An auxiliary method is a method whose qualifier is :before, :after, or :around. Standard method combination allows no more than one qualifier per method; if a method definition specifies more than one qualifier per method, an error is signaled.
A before method has the keyword :before as its only qualifier. A before method specifies code that is to be run before any primary methods.
An after method has the keyword :after as its only qualifier. An after method specifies code that is to be run after primary methods.
An around method has the keyword :around as its only qualifier. An around method specifies code that is to be run instead of other applicable methods, but which might contain explicit code which calls some of those shadowed methods (via call-next-method).
The semantics of standard method combination is as follows:
If there are any around methods, the most specific around method is called. It supplies the value or values of the generic function.
Inside the body of an around method, call-next-method can be used to call the next method. When the next method returns, the around method can execute more code, perhaps based on the returned value or values. The generic function no-next-method is invoked if call-next-method is used and there is no applicable method to call. The function next-method-p may be used to determine whether a next method exists.
If an around method invokes call-next-method, the next most specific around method is called, if one is applicable. If there are no around methods or if call-next-method is called by the least specific around method, the other methods are called as follows:
All the before methods are called, in most-specific-first order. Their values are ignored. An error is signaled if call-next-method is used in a before method.
The most specific primary method is called. Inside the body of a primary method, call-next-method may be used to call the next most specific primary method. When that method returns, the previous primary method can execute more code, perhaps based on the returned value or values. The generic function no-next-method is invoked if call-next-method is used and there are no more applicable primary methods. The function next-method-p may be used to determine whether a next method exists. If call-next-method is not used, only the most specific primary method is called.
All the after methods are called in most-specific-last order. Their values are ignored. An error is signaled if call-next-method is used in an after method.
If no around methods were invoked, the most specific primary method supplies the value or values returned by the generic function. The value or values returned by the invocation of call-next-method in the least specific around method are those returned by the most specific primary method.
In standard method combination, if there is an applicable method but no applicable primary method, an error is signaled.
The before methods are run in most-specific-first order while the after methods are run in least-specific-first order. The design rationale for this difference can be illustrated with an example. Suppose class C_1 modifies the behavior of its superclass, C_2, by adding before methods and after methods. Whether the behavior of the class C_2 is defined directly by methods on C_2 or is inherited from its superclasses does not affect the relative order of invocation of methods on instances of the class C_1. Class C_1’s before method runs before all of class C_2’s methods. Class C_1’s after method runs after all of class C_2’s methods.
By contrast, all around methods run before any other methods run. Thus a less specific around method runs before a more specific primary method.
If only primary methods are used and if call-next-method is not used, only the most specific method is invoked; that is, more specific methods shadow more general ones.


I'm a Senior Biomedical Sciences Major with a minor in Chemistry at Texas A&M University. Chemistry is a great passion of mine and I could only hope that I can help you like it the way I do! I decided to start tutoring when I helped several of my friends in their Intro Chemistry courses and they benefited greatly from my help.
I researched in the Chemistry Department with the Fang Group for a two years, and hope to publish a paper soon for the undergraduate synthesis of a large organic molecule called Indene-fused Quinacridone.
I'm easy to get along with and have the knowhow to break down the more complicated Chemistry subjects to where they are easy to understand and (maybe) even fun to do!

Rudy Giuliani says his safe is stuffed with ‘files’ on the Bidens
by Laura ItalianoRudy Giuliani said in a tweet Saturday that he has a safe stuffed with “files” on the Bidens.
“The statement I’ve made several times of having an insurance policy, if thrown under the bus, is sarcastic & relates to the files in my safe about the Biden Family’s 4 decades monetizing of his office,” President Trump’s personal lawyer tweeted Saturday.
The odd tweet followed by three hours an earlier Saturday tweet by the former federal prosecutor insisting, “The Mafia couldn’t kill me so NO, I am not worried about the swamp press!
The posts followed an interview with Fox News, during which the former NYC mayor also got defensive when asked if he was concerned that Trump could throw him “under the bus” as the impeachment process heats up.
Giuliani also ridiculed Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden for claiming he never knew that his son Hunter was on the board of a controversial Ukrainian gas company during his vice-presidency.
“He says, ‘I don’t know my own family’s business’ — some of it sounds like Kay Corleone,” he said, referring to the pivotal scene in which a mob wife willfully blinds herself to her Mafia-boss husband’s crimes.

Dutch state to appeal order to take back children of ISIL mothers
A court in The Hague said the government must actively help repatriate 56 children living in poor conditions in Syria.
The Dutch state has said it will appeal against a court ruling ordering it to take back dozens of young children of mothers who joined the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS) armed group in Syria.
A court in The Hague on Monday said the government must actively help repatriate 56 children living in poor conditions in camps in northern Syria.

-

The Dutch foreign and justice ministers both issued statements on Tuesday saying they would seek to overturn the court's decision, which they said did not take diplomatic considerations into account.
"The ruling raises questions about a number of issues that may not have been sufficiently considered, including international affairs," Justice Minister Ferd Grapperhaus and Foreign Minister Stef Blok wrote in a letter to Parliament.
"The cabinet decided to file an appeal to gain certainty as quickly as possible."
The ruling came after lawyers representing 23 women launched a lawsuit last week demanding the Netherlands return them and their 56 children from detention camps in Syria.
Judge Hans Vetter said that while the women did not need to be repatriated, the state must make "all possible efforts" to return the children, who have Dutch nationality and are under 12 years of age. Most children are younger than six.
"The children cannot be held responsible for the actions of their parents, however serious these may be," the court said. "The children are victims of the actions of their parents."
The women, however, "were aware of the crimes being committed by ISIL and must be tried," it said.
The Dutch government has always insisted it was too dangerous for Dutch officials to go into the camps and find the women and children to return them to the Netherlands.

Thanks for the inquiry, Morten.
You need to tell Synergy about the new license.
You can do this in the preferences, specifically in the "About" tab, where you'll find an "Enter serial number" button. Just enter the new serial number and the corresponding email address and you should be good to go.
Let me know if you need any more help. I'm going to mark this one as closed for now, but feel free to add comments or questions.

It doesn't help. I've re-entered the new serial several times. I've also tried uninstall, restart, install - but it remembers my registration info and the pop-up keeps showing up.

Sounds to me like you're re-entering the old serial number which is is not valid, and not the new one which is valid.
I'll reply to you in a private email as I don't want to quote your actual serial numbers out in the open on the issue tracker.
If you carefully enter the correct one I don't think you'll have any problems. If you do, however, please send me a copy of your preferences file, which you will find at

Greg Hurrell
Yes, I think it's a problem with the system. It seems that it sends the first license that it finds, when it probably should send the last one. I've already got a ticket open for that (ticket #1382). Sorry that you got affected by it.

Michael & Scott's lock-free queue (intrusive variant)
Implementation of well-known Michael & Scott's queue algorithm.
Template arguments:
GC
- garbage collector type: gc::HP, gc::HRC, gc::PTBT
- type to be stored in the queue, should be convertible to single_link::nodeOptions
- optionsType of node: single_link::node
Options
are:
single_link::base_hook<>
is used. For Gidenstam's gc::HRC, only single_link::base_hook is supported.Garbage collecting schema GC
must be consistent with the single_link::node GC.
|
inline |
Destructor clears the queue.
Since the Michael & Scott queue contains at least one item even if the queue is empty, the destructor may call item disposer.
|
inline |
Clear the queue.
The function repeatedly calls dequeue until it returns NULL
. The disposer defined in template Options
is called for each item that can be safely disposed.
|
inline |
Dequeues a value from the queue.
If the queue is empty the function returns NULL
.
dequeue
is called, the item returning is still queue's top, and previous top is disposed:dequeue
function returns Item 2, that becomes new top of queue, and calls the disposer for Item 1, that was queue's top on function entry. Thus, you cannot manually delete item returned because it is still included in item sequence and it has valuable link field that must not be zeroed. The item may be deleted only in disposer call.
Reimplemented in cds::intrusive::MoirQueue< GC, T, Options >, and cds::intrusive::MoirQueue< GC, intrusive::single_link::node< T >, Options... >.
|
inline |
Enqueues val
value into the queue.
The function always returns true
.
|
inline |
Returns queue's item count.
The value returned depends on opt::item_counter option. For atomicity::empty_item_counter, this function always returns 0.
Warning: even if you use real item counter and it returns 0, this fact is not mean that the queue is empty. To check queue emptyness use empty() method.

Michael Schumacher's wife and daughter give rare interview paying tribute to F1 legend
Corinna Schumacher has paid tribute to her husband, the seven-time Formula One world champion, in an interview in Germany
by Alex Richards, https://www.facebook.com/AARichards/Michael Schumacher's wife, Corinna has paid tribute to her husband in a rare interview, declaring: "I don't forget who I have to thank."
Formula 1 legend Schumacher suffered a serious brain injury in December 2013 in a skiing accident in the French Alps, which left him in a coma.
Since then, little has been revealed about the condition of the seven-time world champion since he moved to being treated at home in September 2014.
Schumacher's son, Mick, now 20, is following in his father's footsteps with a racing career of his own.
But Corinna, 50, and daughter Gina Maria, 22, have another passion: horseback riding.
And in an interview with She Magazine in Germany, she paid tribute to Michael and credited him for the love that both have for horses.
The family have a ranch in the Swiss town of Givrins which was given to his wife by Michael Schumacher in 2005 for their 10th wedding anniversary, and mother and daughter are also organising riding events there.
"When I was 30, I very much wanted to have a horse and Michael went with me to Dubai, where I intended to buy an Arabian horse," she said.
"He did everything for me. I will never forget who I have to thank. That would be my husband Michael."
Corinna, who married Michael in 1995, now has two ranches in Switzerland and Texas.
She currently has 40 horses, and Michael used to boast about how he would act as the hired help, known as a Turniertrottel in Germany, where he would much out stables and drive the truck.
She added: "I am glad that I have such a great team that keeps everything going. I feel the greatest pride when I see Gina.
"What she has already achieved and how much fun she is - that makes me happy."
Earlier this year, Gina helped Germany secure a gold medal in the SVAG FEI Reining European Championship in Switzerland.
And she revealed the advice her father once gave her, stating: "When you drive a car, you can stick it in the garage afterwards. But a horse needs to be looked after all the time, even on Sundays."
According to Corinna, their daughter's success was something Michael had once prophesied.
She said: "When my husband told me that one day Gina would be much better than me, I was not thrilled.
"I thought 'hey, how did he come to that conclusion?' I mean I work with horses from morning to night, trying to learn everything."
"He then told me: 'You are too nice. Gina however gives everything to the horses, but she is also able to say no and to see it through.'"


Room in your suitcase for a turkey? TSA says you can take it with you
by Maritza SalazarThe Transportation Security Administration says you can pack a cooked turkey in your carry-on luggage!
On its website, the TSA provides tips to help travelers make it to their Thanksgiving destination safely, even those who are providing Thanksgiving dinner.
The site says that along with a cooked turkey, stuffing, side dishes, and desserts are also allowed in carry-on luggage.
"Just make sure that any dishes containing liquids follow the 3-1-1 rule," the TSA states on its website. Same goes for canned cranberry sauce.
What about alcohol? Any holiday wine must go in your checked luggage.
"You can pack as many alcoholic beverages as you want as long as they contain less than 24% alcohol. However, passengers toting alcoholic beverages containing 24% to 70% alcohol can only bring a total of 5 liters of alcohol and they should be in their original unopened packaging."

Earlier we learned how to create a basic cocos2d-x project. Actually, the project was created by cocos
script and all we had to do was to launch it.
Now I’m going to describe some basic cocos2d-x terms and then we’ll be able to look closely at the sources the cocos
generated for us.
Scene is a background or a container for all other elements the player sees. A real program should contain at least two scenes: one for main menu and another one for actual game. You can switch between scenes using the Director class. The idea here is that it should look like a theater: there is a scene, and some decorations and actors on it. And the Director commands them to change when time comes. However, our first programs will contain only one scene so there will be no switching between scenes.
the most important method of the scene is init:
bool SmokeTestScene::init() {
// 1. super init first
if (!Scene::init()) {
return false;
}
//
<створення інших об'єктів>
return true;
}
This method is used as a constructor. For some (mostly historical) reasons cocos2d-x projects don’t use real C++ constructors, so most of the scene objects get created during init.
Node is a basic class for all the elements you can see on the scene.
All Node objects have following properties:
Also Node implements parent-child relationships between objects. One object may be assigned as parent to another one, and when parent gets destroyed all its children get destroyed too. Later there will be another post about memory usage in cocos programs, but for now that’ not so important.
Three node subclasses appear in default program:
Here are all of them:
The “GL Verts / GL calls” does not belong to a scene. That’s a debug information the framework generates for every window. There is a way to hide it, but for now better to let it be.
Technically the Scene class also is a subclass of Node but it’s used differently so it’s better to think they are not related.

Georgia vs. Baylor three things to watch
Response to conference championship losses
Both Georgia and Baylor entered conference championship weekend eyeing College Football Playoff berths. LSU dealt Georgia a 37-10 blowout loss in the SEC championship while Baylor suffered a 30-23 overtime defeat to Oklahoma in the Big 12 championship.
Baylor finishing when it matters
Though Baylor has been one of the top teams in the country throughout the year, the Bears lack a signature win and have crumbled in crunch time. Baylor blew a 28-3 lead vs. Oklahoma back in November and also held a 13-10 halftime lead over the Sooners in the Big 12 championship loss.
D'Andre Swift
Georgia's star running back had just two rushing attempts in the SEC championship loss to LSU following his shoulder injury against Georgia Tech the week prior. Swift has 1,216 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns on the season and his status for the Sugar Bowl will be a key storyline going forward.
