Deep Rising is one of "those" movies. The kind of movie which serves no purpose except to entertain us. It does not ask us to think about important questions like life on other planets or the possibility that there is no god...screw that , it says boldly , let's see some computer generated monsters rip into , decapitate and generally cause irreparable booboos to a bunch of little known actors. Heh! Them wacky monsters , gotta love 'em. Of course , since we can rent about a thousand B movies with the same kind of story , Hollywood must give that little extra "oumph" to get people in theaters. That is where Deep Rising fails , which is a good thing. Confused? Let me explain:
Despite all them flashy effects and big explosions , Deep Rising is still , at heart , a good 'ol B movie. Luckily , it's a very good B movie. The worst cliches in movie history are a B movie's bread and butter. Therefore , things that would destroy a serious movie actually help us have a good time while watching a movie of lower calibre. Of course we know there's a big slimy creature behind that door , that one person will wander off to be picked off by said monster and we always know which persons or person will make it out alive. We just don't know when or how horrible it will be.
I went to see Deep Rising with my expections low and my tolerance for bad dialogue high. Imagine my surprise when i discover that Deep Rising is actually , well , pretty darn funny at times. A funny B movie? Well , that's new. These flicks are not supposed to make us laugh. (Except for a few unintended laughs once a while.) And before you know it , Treat Williams , Wes Studi and Famke Jansen appear on the big screen.
Hey! I know them guys ( and gal ) from a couple of other movies. Cool. Familiar faces. So far so good.
Our man Treat is the hero , he'll live. Wes is a staple of B movies , he is the token victim. We know he'll buy the farm but he will take a few creeps with him on the way out. Famke is the babe , 'nuff said. There is also a guy with glasses ( the guy with glasses always dies ) a black person ( B movie buffs know that the black guy always dies , never fails ) and a very funny , nerdy guy. ( Ah! Comic relief. How can we possibly explain having to kill him...let him live.)
After the first fifteen minutes i felt right at home. I know who to root for and who i need to boo too and a gum to chew.
Suffice it to say that for the next hour and a half i jumped out of my seat a few times , went "ewwww" about a dozen times and nearly had an orgasm over all the explosions and firepower our heroes were packing. I'm a man , we nottice these things. All in all , i'd recommend Deep Rising if you are looking for a good time and care to leave your brain at the door...but bring your sense of humor and excitement in with you. The acting is decent , the effects top rate.
How to best describe it? Put together the jet ski scene from Hard Rain , the bug attacks from Starship Troopers , a couple of James Bond like stunts and all those scenes from Friday the Thirteenth and Freddy where you keep screaming "don't go there , he's behind you" and you end up with Deep Rising.
Rating: 3 and 1/2 stars out of 5 for creepy crawly goodness , tight t-shirts , major firepower and the need to go to the bathroom every fifteen minutes from seing all that water.

Agilent Earnings: A Stock Drops 3% Despite Q4 Beat
A has a poor outlook for 2020
Agilent (NYSE:A) earnings for the research, development and manufacturing company’s fiscal fourth quarter of 2019 have A stock down on Monday. That’s in spite of its adjusted per-share earnings of 89 cents and revenue of $1.37 billion. These are both better than Wall Street’s estimates of 85 cents per share and $1.33 billion.
Here’s what else is worth mentioning from the current Agilent earnings report.
- Adjusted EPS for the quarter is up 4.94% YoY compared to 81 cents.
- Revenue is sitting 6.20% higher than the $1.29 billion reported during the same period of the year prior.
- Operating income for the quarter comes in at $250 million.
- That’s a 2.46% increase over operating income of $244 million in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2018.
- The Agilent earnings report also includes a net income of $194 million.
- This is a slight drop from its net income of $195 million reported during the same time last year.
Mike McMullen, President and CEO of Agilent, has this to say about the A stock earnings.
“Agilent’s fourth-quarter results cap off a very solid 2019 and reflect the broad-based business we’ve built over the last five years. Based on what we’ve been able to achieve in 2019, I’m convinced we’re in an exceptionally strong position for the future.”
Despite McMullen’s positive disposition, Agilent earnings contain a poor outlook for fiscal 2020. The company expects adjusted earnings per share of $3.38 to $3.43 on revenue of $5.50 billion to $5.55 billion. That doesn’t compare well next to Wall Street’s estimates of $3.44 per share and $5.55 billion.
A stock was down 2.94% after markets closed on Monday. The stock finished the day up 1.44%.
As of this writing, William White did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

Mom
This is my human mom, Peggy! She likes to listen to Def Leppard and doesn't give me extra treats. But that's okay because she makes my homemade food for me.  She even gives me more wet food on top!
Dad
This is my human dad, Matt! He likes all things Superman and gives me extra treats. Since my human parents are divorced, he takes me on weekly walks! I miss him A LOT. He always rubs my belly and gives me extra treats, did I say that already?
China
This is my human sister, China! She gives me extra treats all the time and she is my favorite human. We do everything together.
Colin
This is my human brother, Colin! He's a little loud and annoying like brothers are but I still love him. He generally gives me extra treats, which is important. He likes spiderman and not cleaning his room.
Cassie
This is my human sister, Cassie! She lives far away in Oregon with two human puppies of her own, so I never see her these days. But I love her. She enjoys all things Disney and obsessively cleaning.


For the last several months, all of my technical time not devoted to my primary employment has been absorbed in a little iPad project. Nights and weekends that I usually would spend writing blog posts, chatting on Stackoverflow, or working on PandoraBoy have instead been spent on one of the more interesting projects I’ve worked on. But now it’s front-page on apple.com, soaring up the charts, and I’m rolling onto other things. Top of my list, when not working on an awesome IM/Phone app full time, is starting work on a new iOS book, but close after that are PandoraBoy improvements, Cocoaphony and Stackoverflow. And maybe a little skiing. And there is that go-kart the family has started building. But still, blogging is up there, and I should have a new build of PandoraBoy out in the next week that fixes up some annoying bugs.

 It took me about a year to decide :) thumb: upic-elise.jpg category: freelance ---
Independent software consultant. Currently working in Ruby on Rails, and loving it..
Networking. Before I started to freelance, I went to lots of networking events (barcamps, geekdinners, ...), and got to know many people in IT from my country.
When i announced on twitter I was going freelance, I immediately got a proposal from one of my contacts, who was looking for a Ruby programmer.
Where, and how, do you search for work now? Can you give me some advice on the best ways to find Ruby related work?
Once again, the best way is to use social networks and contacts and let it be known you're a rubyist and available. You can do a web version of that by making your LinkedIn profile visible, and posting your profile on job sites. You can also send your CV to local body shopping agencies.
Then there's several job boards:
I just subscribed to odesk.com, which is a kind of hub for freelance jobs. (generally, google rails jobs and variations) Most jobs are for the US, but sometimes they accept remote work. You have to browse a lot to find interesting freelance work in your area.
What advice would you give a Ruby beginner without any projects ready to show?
Make one ready project and put it online, so you have something to show. Start a technical blog and make it searchable. Get to know as many people as possible, and let them know what you're doing. In fact, it's a good idea to have a ready explanation of why RoR is good, some people will not understand 'Ruby on Rails', but they might understand Twitter or Basecamp. Try to get contracts where you get paid by the day, not fixed-rate projects. It's more compatible with agile, and it's just plain easier on you.
What have you learned in the past about working with Ruby, clients, how to find good clients, etc.? Many people dream about changing the past for a better present moment ... anything you want to share?
 It took me about a year to decide :) I was lucky with my first customers. There's really nothing wrong with being an employee though, if you find the right environment (I haven't).
What books, or sites, or recipes, or whatever else you can recommend (they may be about productivity, or negotiation, or thinking - anything you think will help me live a better life as a programmer)?
I read the Pragmatic Programmer a long time ago - it's pretty good, and mostly timeless. I've The art of agile development which was a good intro (nowadays lots of people are speaking about kanban, haven't looked yet).
One book would recommend to any beginning rails freelancer: railsfreelancebook.com/
Read blogs from good rubyists and follow the Railscasts (you probably know about that already :) )
How much time per week do you work? How do you keep yourself productive and focused?
Usually about i work about 40-50hrs, not more. to keep focused i do other things next to my work :) Air your brain a little.  You don't have a group of colleagues. I share a space with 2 co-workers, but of course you need some income before you can afford that. So make sure you keep hold of your friends :)
I use rubymine or textmate depending on the mood, and vi. Lots of command line. git of course. capistrano. the usual I try to keep my workspace clean, i work better when it's uncluttered.
How do recommend becoming a successful and profitable programmer?

What should every programmer know?
 And then all the stuff in 'Pragmatic Programmers' :)
I hope I answered your questions and that the answers will help. Good luck and lots of success !
Elise
Thank you so much! It was interesting to read your answer. Hope you enjoying while writing it :)

Files CCore/inc/gadget/LockObject.h CCore/src/gadget/LockObject.cpp
LockObject is a simple class, implementing the scope lock pattern:
template <class T>
class LockObject : NoCopy
{
T &obj;
public:
explicit LockObject(T &obj_) : obj(obj_) { obj_.lock(); }
~LockObject() { obj.unlock(); }
};
If you have an object of the type C with methods lock() and unlock(), you can use LockObject to "lock" this object for a scope duration:
class C { public: void lock(); void unlock(); }; .... C obj; .... { LockObject<C> lock(obj); // obj.lock() is called // obj.unlock() will be called whenever scope is exited .... }

I've been smoking cannabis for a few months now, and the other day I was out dry. Nobody was selling lately so I was pretty bummed. I was with a friend and I was explaining to him my problem. He told me about some spice products at the gas station that work just as good. I had trouble buying into it at first, no believing it would get me high. Sure enough I went and bought a 500mg bag of the brand 'Stinger.'
The next night I decided I'd give it a try. I went outside with my pipe, lit a few bowls at around 11pm. About 10-15 minutes later I felt the effects immediatley. I couldn't belive that it actually worked. My mind was swirling and I kept forgetting things like I usually do when I smoke mary jane. A great feeling of relaxation swept over me around 30min later and I could not stop smiling and laughing at everything. The high lasted about a good hour or so.
The only difference I could really notice was that usually after my marijuana high I feel buzzed for a good while afterwards. I did not feel a buzz at all after the spice. It was like I was high for an hour and then it dropped and I was back to completely normal. It didn't last as long as I had hoped for but it is a great alternative to the real thing, plus it's legal in most states and doesn't show up in drug tests. I will most likely be using this product again in the near future.

Freecell Solver version 3.2.0 has been released. It is available in the form of a source tarball from the download page. We hope to release a Windows binary soon.
This release implements the --depth-tests-order flag that allows varying the tests' order based on the depth which allows for interesting (and faster) searches. Several new presets : -l the-iglu-cabal , -l foss-nessy and -l tea-for-two have been added , the latter optimised for two freecell deals. There are also several bug-fixes, optimisations and code cleanups.

There are two parts: Part I: build a concordance (see below) from a "word sample" (some literary sample like the bible, poems or editorials) and give it an interactive interface. Use a hash table. In that building process, it is easy to keep a count of total words and number of different words in the sample. Those numbers you will use to verify or falsify a linguistic hypothesis. Part II: uses tools from Part I, along with a sort and a merge you write, to identify words used in Shakespeare but not found in a sample of modern English. The goal is to find Elizabethan words no longer used today (maybe like 'varlet').
It has been estimated that the average Elizabethan city-dweller, circa 1600, had a working vocabulary at least three times larger than the average American today. (They had great insults too, or at least Shakespeare did: ``Thou beslubbering hedge-born clotpole'', ``mewling milk-livered joithead'', etc.) The argument is that popular culture then was Shakespeare, and now it's TV, tweets from illiterates like ourselves, and 3rd-grade level Presidential Debates.
Speaking of insults, the above 'estimate' is a pretty uncomplimentary hypothesis about the linguistic prowess of own great nation. It begs for investigation, so let's state a testable, simple hypothesis: Shakespeare's sonnets use a wider variety of (less repetition of) vocabulary than modern prose. (Related question: "...than modern poetry"?).
Formalize that as: Let SS be the list of (all) words in the Shakespeare Sample (for us, the sonnets). Let ES be the list of all words in the English sample (see below). Let SD be the set of (different) words in the Shakespeare sample -- no duplicated words. Let ED be the set of different words in the English sample. Part I starts the quantification process by building a concordance, or list of words, in the word samples. The concordance is an interesting, useful, free-standing tool in itself, so you'll give it a (dirt simple!) user interface. As your program makes the concordance from a word sample, it can easily make total- and different-word counts.
Then the hypothesis is that ( |SD| / |SS| ) > ( |ED| / |ES|), where |X| means "number of elements in list or set X." A good single number to report would be ( |SD| / |SS| ) / ( |ED| / |ES|), which the hypothesis claims should be > 1 and maybe as large as 3. What do you find and are you convinced?
A concordance is an index that tells, for all words in a particular document, where each one appears. Biblical concordances have been central scholarly aids for a long time: they identify the book and verse in which any word appears (also giving some context and pointing to its Greek or Hebrew form and definition). Useful if you're looking for a quote, cross-reference, seeing how many different Hebrew words mapped into one English one, etc.
The words from the sonnets are hashed into the table, and each entry has the word and a list of its locations (each is the sonnet number and line where it's found). The number of different words (those newly inserted, not already appearing in the table) is counted during the insertion phase. Then we'll want an interface method that invites the user to type a word, and which will produce all the locations in the input data file where that word is found. Pure text display is fine, or use a GUI I/O tool if that floats your boat.
The sonnets are from the Project Gutenberg site. They and other data are in the course's Data Directory. The sonnets file sonnets.txt file is the raw input for use in Part I.
Relevant for Part II of this assignment are the files words.zip, agid_words.tar.gz -- they are ASCII (TXT) English word collections (lexicons, dictionaries...).
For the sonnets, edit out the copyright and legal stuff and you've got about 2630 lines and 17700 words. I removed CTRL-M's as well. The resulting file is the required final input to your concordance (of course you'll use smaller but similarly formatted input for debugging, yes?).
Your Choice: Specifying the General Hypothesis: Now to test the Part I hypothesis you get to pick your own control input: some category of English (USA) prose to explore (newspaper stories, short stories, blogs, advertising,...). It's probably easy to find or make ASCII versions of newspapers, political blogs, Stephen King novels, on-line self-published novels, whatever. Have fun: find it, justify it (why is it representative of the community whose vocabulary you're testing?). Edit it into the same format as the sonnets, and adjust its length to have the same number of words as the sonnets. (UNIX's wc tells you relevant file size info, as will most any text editor).
Make an interactive user interface for the concordance. Could use a window or be command-line interaction -- latter is easier to "turn in" via a transcript. Thus provide a transcript of your user interface (or screenshots or something convincing if you've got a more modern interface with windows). Document a user inquiring about words and receiving information about their locations. It should be obvious to the reader of your transscript what is going on, but feel free to add explanations, point out cool features, whatever.
To test the hypothesis, you can use your concordance program to count the number of different words it sees. Thus simply need to make a concordance for the sonnets (done already?) and another one for the control prose. Now you are ready to compute and report the ratios mentioned above in the formalization of the hypothesis.
Use a closed hashing scheme. Use quadratic probing or double hashing to resolve collisions. Case and punctuation should both be ignored -- they must not enter into your hash function, and your word-matching must be case-insensitive. So for definiteness, case must be 'lower', and all punctuation except for spaces and line breaks ignored (except as noted below).
The concordance program can easily count the number of different words it sees (increment a counter whenever a word is inserted into the hash table for the first time).
The thoughts below are offered ``as is'', no guarantees. Feel free to ignore the rest of this section. As always, start small (one sonnet or less). Scaling up a working algorithm is easier than debugging a massive data-processing job with all its input and state and output. Sonnets are separated by blank lines and roman numerals, so should be easy to identify, and the roman numeral string is their title. Break each line of text into words and deal with one word at a time. Ignore (remove) all punctuation after, before, or within a word. Eg. in Sonnet II we have "lies,", "'This", and "deserv'd", which go to "lies", "This", and "deservd". Then put everything into lower case, so words will compare equal with a simple string compare and, more importantly, hash to the same value.
We could have a word class, whose instances each contain a word as a string and the head of a linked list of reference class instances. The reference class contains the sonnet title (its roman numeral number), the sonnet's line number where the word appears (an integer), and a pointer to the next reference instance.
So one way the algorithm could work: go word by word (one could also go line by line or sonnet by sonnet, mutatis mutandis). For each word, make a word instance and a single reference instance and fill them up with the appropriate strings and integers. Hash the word (your choice of hash function), and do what it takes to see if it's in your table (choice of quadratic or double hashing). If it's not there already, make the reference the 1-long reference list for that word and insert the word into the table. If the word is in the table already, insert the new reference instance into the existing reference list for the word in the table.
The goal here is to detect words in the sonnets that don't appear in modern English, thus presumably were used in Elizabethan times but not today.
Check out the word lists (lexicons) in the data directory. One problem with a dictionary is that linguistically 1600 wasn't long ago, and furthermore old words get remembered in dictionaries (partly so we can read stuff written in 1600!). Still, you can pick a lexicon or find another source of words you like better. Idea is to have the broadest coverage of modern English, but few "old" words from classical sources. This might be a tough goal, I don't know. Maybe you can find (or make, using your concordance tool) a lexicon of all the words used in some issues of the N.Y. Times or Wall St. Journal, maybe.
Our job is to find which words are in the sonnets but not in our (ideally, modern American) lexicon. Simply sort the sonnet words (and if you need to, the words in the lexicon). Depending on the form of your lexicon, you may want to leave the sonnets' internal punctuation alone ("who've" would be OK), OR you may want to alter the lexicon to make its words comparable with the sonnets'. Use your choice of O(nlogn) methods: quicksort, shellsort, heapsort, or mergesort.
Now we're not going to use a hash table here (home-brewed or in a library). Except that one way to make a lexicon from a big bag of words like chapters from some book from Gutenberg, is to hash all the words in the sample, then dump the words out of the hash table and sort them. Else you can sort first and remove duplicates in O(N) in a 2nd pass.
So the hard part of Part II is to get two comparable sorted lists (LS: words from sonnets and LE: words from English sample). Our goal (now easy) is to see if LS has words LE does not. The natural way to compare is during a merge -- if that isn't obvious then get help fast.
We need a merge routine here, so that maybe suggests a mergesort for your sorting method.
If a sonnet word isn't in the lexicon, write it to a file to be included in your submission. The hope would be you've found an Elizabethanism, perhaps like "moldwarp".
Remember to debug your sort and merge on small inputs.
1. Code file.
2. Readme, which should have the justification for your control
prose for the concordance and word-counting experiment, as well
as the result (how many different words in each sample).
3. Readme should also have any necessary instructions for running the
code,
and a convincing transcript of a user's
interaction with your on-line concordance of Shakespeare's Sonnets.
4. Readme should also describe your sorting algorithm and hash
function, as well as any novel or clever or extra functionality you provide.
5. File of Elizabethanisms found in the sonnets.

DESPERATE MEASURES
Reviewed by Harvey Karten, Ph.D. TriStar Pictures/Mandalay Entertainment Director: Barbet Schroeder Writer: David Klass Cast: Michael Keaton, Andy Garcia, Marcia Gay Harden, Brian Cox
In the movie "Amistad," John Quincy Adams states in his big monologue that there is nothing a man would not do to regain his freedom. Peter McCabe (Michael Keaton), the superbly played villain in "Desperate Measures," proves it. Planning an escape while serving a sentence of life without parole with a good deal of time in solitary confinement, this killer has the guts to do things to his body that make some audience members actually sympathize with him. He dislocates his thumb, swallows a vial of a drug designed to counteract another drug, takes a bullet in his leg, and slashes himself up a bit on a barbed wire fence. As cynical and apparently unfeeling as he is, he has a weak spot in his heart for two people: one is nine-year-old lad, Mattew Conner (Joseph Cross) who is dying of leukemia; the other is the boy's father, police detective Frank Conner (Andy Garcia), with whom he connects as a man who, like McCabe, will do anything to realize his goal.
"Desperate Measures" has frequent moments of tension, putting the audience often at the edge of their seats despite the number of time we've all seen the usual accoutrements of action-adventure films.   Conner, who obviously has great love for his son, is perfectly willing to violate the law himself, by breaking into a central database in order to locate a match, and then, by ruthlessly allowing several people in the hospital to be shot by this rogue rather than allow the man to die.
Schroeder is toying with a fascinating idea: that there is good and bad in each of us, that while an officer of the law-- heck--even a country's president--may do things that would not pass muster with Mother Teresa, likewise the most seemingly hardened criminal has a recognizable human side.
Even while granting the originality of scripter David Klass's story--the determination of an otherwise honest man to break every law if his actions will keep his son alive--the real surprise of the movie is Michael Keaton. Granted: this performer, who has consistently turned in professional work in comic roles, has shown a serious side in films like "Clean and Sober." But never before has Keaton so successfully portrayed a guy who is absolutely ruthless, one whose 150+ I.Q. gives him an intelligence and ability to make multiple escapes and yet recognize so clearly the bond he shares with the nine-year-old boy and the child's dad. Keaton is so good in his role that for the one hundred minutes' running time of the movie, you'll virtually forget that you've seen him in fluff like "Batman" and hilarious spoofs like "Mr. Mom." He is ably backed up by Andy Garcia who gets his audience to lose some sympathy for his character despite the nobility of his cause, and by newcomer Joseph Cross as the traditional movie cute-kid who elicits our compassion for his bravery in facing the possibility of death. Rated R. Running Time: 100 minutes. (C) 1998 Harvey Karten

Hey there! I'm Sakshi, a 19-year-old college senior currently studying for a B.Tech in Computer Science. My passions are technology and writing, and when I'm not coding , I'm singing or trying to get a song out of my head (unsuccessfully.) I love to solve problems, whether it’s finding the most elegant way to write a line of code or figuring out which word fits best into a blog, I love the challenge of finding a way and discovering solutions.

I'm trying to set an attribute inside a proof script and as soon as the proof is done, the attribute seems to disappear. Is this the desired behavior? Is there a way to make the attribute persistent?
Theorems can't make permanent modifications to the environment, because they are executed out of order
Arrrrgh! I'm trying to generate unique file names for caching proof witnesses
Maybe I should just hash the goal

A Stock Phrase when something particularly unexpected happens, usually following OOC Is Serious Business. For instance, "Alice just spoke, does anyone see four horsemen riding up?"
If it's someone saying the end is nigh if this thing happens, and then it does, see Cue the Flying Pigs. Often used to lampshade Dumbass Has a Point. For extra humor, someone with a sign may show up to declare The End Is Nigh.
Not to be confused with Signs of the End Times, which is when you're literally seeing signs of the apocalypse. Or someone carrying a sign that says The End Is Nigh.
Examples:
- Rurouni Kenshin
Kaoru cooking? Is it a sign of the apocalypse?
- Finding the Truth:
It was one thing to see the opposing houses being less aggressive the night before. It was another to see them enjoying breakfast together and at least attempting to be civil towards one another. Harry had a feeling that most of the seventh years at this point were wondering when the apocalypse started and how they missed it.
- In Long Live the Queen Harry and Hermione help Sirius with a research project instead of helping clean Grimmauld Place, which disgruntles most of the Weasley children.
Only Ron's quietly telling them that it was important got them to back down. After all, if Ron thought research in the library was important, the end of the world must be nigh.
- Jedi Potter:
The morning of the third, Harry woke and prepared for his mornings run. Hermione long used to his training, joined him, and to his surprise, all the students were waiting outside when he left the castle...even Ron, which Harry privately thought was a portent of the apocalypse!
- The Curator Chronicles:
George: Personal research projects being done by a first year... What is the world coming to?
Fred: The end of the world must be nearing. - In This Means War Sirius offers to help Remus research a possible werewolf cure and Harry disappears.
Harry: Is it safe to come out?
Ron: Err, where are you?
Harry: Under the bed. Padfoot wanting to study is one of the signs of the Apocalypse. - Two Shall Be As One:
On Sunday morning as the Gryffindors headed for their table in the Great Hall an unusual sight met their eyes. Hermione Granger was there with Potter and Weasley as usual, but without a book! Was the world about to come to an end?
- Unlocking Harry's Dress Code:
Harry: Malfoy.
Draco: Potter.
Harry: You're my 11 o'clock?
Draco: Not yet, but I'm sure something could be arranged just to please you. Would you prefer a general Armageddon, or does it have to be a true Götterdämmerung? - The Girl Who Loved:
Ami was not paying attention in class. Ami, the smartest, most studious girl Usagi ever met, was ignoring her teacher. She had failed to raise her hand for a question three times in a row. Had the end of the world arrived early?
- Let the Game Begin:
Harry: [Draco] called me delusional.
Ron: What's worse is for a minute there I was ready to agree with him.
Neville: Oh the world is going to end. Ron agreed with not only a Slytherin but a Malfoy to boot. - In A Different Professor Fred and George are at Platform 9 & 3/4 long before the rest of the Weasleys.
Hermione: What are you two doing here? Is the world ending or something?
Harry: That's what I said. - Mistakes and Second Chances:
Padma: Professor Snape just gave points to a house other than Slytherin? Is the world ending?
- Breaking Forwards:
Blaise: Can you imagine what it would be like if Professor Snape smiled?
Harry: His face would probably break.
Blaise: It'd signify the apocalypse. - Triads and Tribulations:
Hermione watched the whole exchange unravel, concerned that at any moment the universe might rip into pieces. Ron and Malfoy being genuinely civil, friendly even, without any threat of violence hanging over them? It was the end of times.
- Strings of Fate:
McGonagall: The Lions are good. Although they are disappointed that Mister Potter was not sorted into Gryffindor. Young Mister Weasley seemed most vocal in his... disappointment, but the twins managed to quieten him down.
Flitwick: The Weasley twins defusing a situation?
Snape: That must be a sign of the Apocalypse. - The Western Sky - Series 3:
Giles: As a wise woman once said - we saved the world, I say we party.
Xander: You're quoting Buffy? You're calling Buffy a wise woman? I think I speak for everyone when I say the earth is most definitely doomed!  And... he is a good judge of character, normally. The only person he's been so incredibly wrong about before has been Harry, and that was just because of James. I think if he trusts the Malfoys... we should give them a chance.
Remus: Oh, sweet Merlin, it's the end of the world. - The Bolt Chronicles: When Mittens finds Rhino sitting in front of the TV watching Porgy and Bess in "The Wind," she uses this phrase to register her extreme surprise at the sight.
Mittens: You're watching opera, rodent? Wow, isn't that one of the seven signs of the apocalypse?
- Faith:
Sirius: Now, I'm sure you're all curious as to why the dearest godson of my heart brought you all here today. We have come up with [theatrical pause] a plan.
Draco: Heaven save us. Gryffindors with plans. The world is coming to an end.

My God, no more attention. This is like one of the signs of the Apocalypse.
- Smallville, unwittingly making a Pun:
- In the final season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer they point to the band playing in the Bronze (Nerf Herder, a song from whom also provided the theme tune throughout the series) as a sign of the Apocalypse. At the same time as a lot of rather more conventional signs of the apocalypse are occurring.

Alex: She's right. I'm wrong, and Mallory's right. The world is ending!
- In 30 Rock, Kenneth has been convinced by a reverend that the apocalypse is going to happen soon. The other writers decide to mess with him, and tell him that they saw four flaming horses ride by. Kenneth says that the reverend told him that super-gay horses are one of the signs of the apocalypse.
- In an episode of House, the titular doctor known for being the poster boy of Dr. Jerk, offers Wilson a coffee. He is understandably skeptical.
House: Why are you suspicious?Wilson: Because it's either that or accept the fact that you've done something nice. And then I have to deal with the Horsemen, and the Rain of Fire, and the End of Days.
- A weekly piece in Sports Illustrated is a "Sign Of The Apocalypse", which lists some mind-boggling or otherwise "Ugh, really?" sports-related event (not necessarily in an actual game) that happened recently (relative to the date of the issue).

Oh, the little shut-in girl has come to play outside. Should I expect a meteor to fall?

Chuck: Does this seem like a particularly awkward silence?

As a narrative of this description is very apt to be dry and uninteresting, I have thought it possible to remove in a measure this objection by using as often as convenient the cant lingo of the corps. A vocabulary which shall contain it all, or nearly all, becomes necessary. I have taken great care to make it as full as possible, and at the same time as intelligible as possible.
There are a few cant words and expressions which are directly personal, and in many cases self-explanatory. They are for such reasons omitted.
"Animal," "animile," "beast," "reptile."— Synonymous terms applied to candidates for admission into the Academy.
"Plebe."—A candidate after admission, a new cadet. After the candidates are examined and the proficient ones admitted, these latter are known officially as "new cadets," but in the cant vernacular of the corps they are dubbed "plebes," and they retain this designation till the candidates of the next year report. They are then called "yearlings," a title applied usually to them in camp only. After the encampment they become "furloughmen" until they return from furlough in August of the following year. They then are "second-classmen," and are so officially and à la cadet throughout the year. From this time till they graduate they are known as the "graduating class," so that, except the second class, each class has its own peculiar cant designation.
Candidates generally report in May—about the 20th —and during July and August are in camp. This is their "plebe camp." The next is their, "yearling camp." During the next, they are en congé, and the next and last is their "first-class camp." Of "plebe camp," "yearling camp," and "first-class camp," more anon.
"Rapid."—A "plebe" is said to be "rapid" when he shows a disposition to resist hazing, or to "bone familiarity" with older cadets—i.e., upper classmen.
September.
"Fins."—A term applied to the hands generally, of course to the hands of "plebes."
"To bone."—To study, to endeavor to do well in any particular; for instance, to "bone demerits" is to strive to get as few as possible.
"To bone popularity."—This alludes to a habit practised, especially by, "yearlings" while in camp, and is equivalent to our every-day expression in civil life, viz., "to get in with."
"To bugle it."—To avoid a recitation. To avoid a recitation is an act seldom done by any cadet. It is in fact standing at the board during the whole time of recitation without turning around, and thus making known a readiness to recite. At the Academy a bugle takes the place of the bell in civil schools. When the bugle is blown those sections at recitation are dismissed, and others come in. Now, if one faces the board till the bugle blows, there is not then enough time for him to recite, and he is said to have "bugled it." Some instructors will call on any one who shows a disposition to do so, and will require him to tell what he knows about his subject.
"Busted," "broken."—These words apply only to cadet officers who are reduced to ranks.
To "get chevrons."—To receive an appointment in the battalion organization. Each year, on the day the graduates receive their diplomas, and just after— possibly just before—they are relieved from further duty at the Academy, the order fixing the appointments for the next year is read, and those of the year previous revoked. It has been customary to appoint the officers, captains, and lieutenants from the first class, the sergeants from the second, and the corporals from the third. This custom has at times, and for reasons, been departed from, and the officers chosen as seemed best.
For any offence of a grave nature, any one who has chevrons is liable to lose them, or, in other words, to be reduced to ranks.
"To crawl over."—To haze, generally in the severest manner possible.
"To curse out."—To reprimand, to reprove, and also simply to interview. This expression does not by any means imply the use of oaths.
"Debauch."—Any ceremony or any thing unusual. It may be a pleasant chat, a drill, or any thing that is out of the usual routine.
"Exaggerations."—It is a habit of the cadets to exaggerate on certain occasions, and especially when policing. "A log of wood," "a saw-mill," "a forest," and kindred expressions, are applied to any fragment of wood of any description that may be lying about.
Any thing—whatever it may be—which must be policed, is usually known by some word or term suggested by its use or the method or the place of its manufacture.
"To find."—To declare deficient in studies or discipline.
An "extra" is an extra tour of guard duty given as punishment. Cadets on "extra" are equipped as for parade, and walk in the area of Cadet Barracks from two o'clock until retreat, or from two to five hours, on Saturday or other days of the week. An "extra" is sometimes called a "Saturday Punishment."
"Fessed," "fessed cold," "fessed frigid," "fessed out," and "fessed through."—Made a bad recitation, failed.
"A gag," "Grin," "Grind."—Something witty, a repartee.
Also to take, to steal.
"Made."—Given an appointment, given chevrons as an officer in the battalion organization.
"To put into the battalion."—To assign to a company, as in case of new cadets.
"Reveilles."—Old shoes, easy and comfortable, worn to reveille roll-call.
"To be white," "To treat white."—To be polite, courteous, and gentlemanly.
"A stayback."—A graduate detained at graduation to instruct the new cadets.*
*When the cadets are in barracks, the officer of the guard on Sundays either has or assumes authority to detain from church, for any emergency that might arise, one or two or more members of his guard, in addition to those on post on duty. Cadets so detained are called "staybacks.
"Scratch day."—A day when lessons are hard or numerous.
[A number of cadets sitting or lounging about the room. One at table pouring out the drinks. As soon as he is done he takes up his own glass, and says to the others, "Come, fellows," and then all together standing:]
—Stand up in a row,
For sentimental drinking we're going for to go;
In the army there's sobriety, promotion's very slow,
So we'll cheer our hearts with choruses of Benny
Havens' O.
Of Benny Havens' O, of Benny Havens' O,
We'll cheer our hearts with choruses of Benny
Havens' O.
When you and I and Benny, and General Jackson too,
Are brought before the final Board our course of
life t' review,
May we never "fess" on any point, but then be told
to go
To join the army of the blest at Benny Havens' O.
At Benny Havens' O, at Benny Havens' O,
To join the army of the blest at Benny Havens' O.
To the ladies of the army let our bumpers ever flow,
Companions of our exile, our shield 'gainst every woe,
May they see their husbands generals with double pay
to show,
And indulge in reminiscences of Benny Havens' O.
Of Benny Havens O, of Benny Havens' O,
And indulge in reminiscences of Benny Havens' O.
'Tis said by commentators, in the land where we
must go
We follow the same handicraft we followed here
below;
If this be true philosophy (the sexton, he says no),
What days of dance and song we'll have at Benny
Havens' O.
At Benny Havens' O, at Benny Havens' O,
What days of dance and song we'll have at Benny
Havens' O!
To the ladies of the Empire State, whose hearts
and albums too
Bear sad remembrance of the wrongs we stripling
soldiers do,
We bid you all a kind farewell, the best recompense
we know—
Our loves and rhymings had their source at Benny
Havens' O.
At Benny Havens' O, at Benny Havens' O,
Our loves and rhymings had their source at Benny
Havens' O.
[Then, with due solemnity, every head uncovered and bowed low, they sing:]
There comes a voice from Florida, from Tampa's
lonely shore;
It is the wail of gallant men, O'Brien is no more;
In the land of sun and flowers his head lies
pillowed low,
No more to sing petite coquille at Benny Havens' O.
At Benny Havens' O, at Benny Havens' O,
No more to sing petite coquille at Benny Havens' O,
etc.

"Atlantis: The Lost Empire," the latest feature-length cartoon from Disney, is an adventure story offering a smooth blend of traditional drawing and computer animation, top-notch voice work from an impressive cast and lots of action. In addition, there are no cheesy musical numbers or adorable animal sidekicks. On the surface (if you'll pardon the expression), it sounds likes a can't-miss enterprise, but the finished product is merely serviceable. "Atlantis" suffers from an over-familiar storyline, underdeveloped characters and a surprising lack of imagination, especially in the all-important visuals.
Everything in the production appears to be culled from other Disney movies. The humans look like refugees from the animated "101 Dalmatians," while the Atlanteans appear to be first cousins of "The Little Mermaid." Add a submarine that would fit in "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" and mystical spinning crystals reminiscent of the central controller in "Tron" and you start wondering if the artists from the other films will receive royalty payments for this one.
Then there's the matter of Atlantis itself. One of the most enduring legends of all time, the fabled city that disappeared beneath the sea cries out for overkill. Atlantis should be an opulent vista of majestic buildings stretching as far as the eye can see. Flowing ivy should entwine the massive pillars supporting the exotic and ornate structures. Atlantis should look like a combination of ancient Rome and the Emerald City from Oz. Instead, we get shots of what looks like a grandiose office complex. Where's the magic? Where's the wonder? Trust me, ladies and gentlemen, Donovan would never have written a song about this place.
As for what happens in the office complex, here's the skinny. Following a prologue depicting the sinking of Atlantis, the story jumps to 1914, where we meet scrawny linguist and map expert Milo Thatch (voiced by Michael J. Fox), a young man obsessed with the lost kingdom. His boss (David Ogden Stiers) and coworkers dismiss the museum curator as a crackpot, but Milo remains a true believer; after all, his grandfather once told him about the mysterious Shepherd's Journal, said to contain the secret to locating Atlantis.
Enter billionaire Preston B. Whitmore (John Mahoney), who has the book and wants Milo to join an expedition to the mythic land. In short order, the kid ends up in a Captain Nemo-style submarine with a ragtag (is there any other kind?) group of mercenaries. Heading the crew is brawny Commander Rourke (James Garner) and his tough lieutenant Helga Sinclair (Claudia Christian), along with dirt-covered geologist Gaetan Moliere (Corey Burton), affectionately called "Mole"; Mrs. Packard (Florence Stanley), a chain-smoking radio operator; droll demolitions expert Vinny Santorini (Don "Father Guido Sarducci" Novello); fast-talking Dr. Sweet (Phil Morris); Audrey Ramirez (Jacqueline Obradors), a no-nonsense mechanic; and a crusty cook known as – what else – Cookie (the late Jim Varney).
The crew nearly meets their end early on when a violent encounter with the Leviathan, a giant Crustacean-like machine, results in the destruction of the sub. Scrambling into escape pods, the team continues the adventure, following the directions in the Journal. They eventually discover the lost city, only to find it is still inhabited. Atlantis lives, courtesy of a crystal energy that provides the denizens light, power and the ability to heal.
Milo and company meet Princess Kida (Cree Summer), a radiant being who takes them to meet her father, the King (Leonard Nimoy), who immediately orders them to leave. They do and the story is over. Just kidding. To no surprise, certain members of the expedition have ulterior motives, leading to a kidnapping, lots of fighting and a heaping pile of New Age hooey.
The New Age stuff fits in with Disney's intense desire to be all things to all people. The expedition, a rainbow coalition of sexes, races and ethnic groups, reflects the same mindset, although the gang contains a number of stereotypes. What's the deal with the filthy Frenchman? Do all Latin women in cartoons have to sound like Rosie Perez? Must all black male characters be gruff, but gentle giants? And does the leading man always have to be white?
Continuing a long-standing Disney tradition, parents are an endangered species here. Milo is an orphan (Disney loves orphans) and, while I don't want to reveal specifics about the fates of Princess Kida's mom and dad, it is safe to say that by the end of the film her Christmas list is shorter.
Given the scarcity of big screen family material, "Atlantis: The Lost Empire" will likely draw a huge audience. Admittedly, the movie is light years better than most of the junk currently being cranked out for children, and the filmmakers deserve credit for avoiding gross-out humor, but this production nonetheless remains a minor league affair. Incidentally, if you think I'm being unduly hard on "Atlantis," remember this: With their stellar list of creations, it was Disney that set the quality bar so high. Now it's their responsibility to live up to their own standards.

Lab goals
The primary goal of this lab is to code an adapter for your ListView
to display the data. This exercise is a
continuation of the previous one; you can build on your previous codebase or use the provided solution to the previous
exercise as starter code for this one.
In this exercise, you will see all the required steps to create a custom adapter, from the core operation of creating
and populating a row to the methods that ListView
needs to get information about your data collection.
Writing your own adapter will let you display each Xamarin University instructor in a custom row layout. You will be able to show their photo, name, and specialty in individual views within the row. Use the following high level steps to complete the exercise and refer to the complete step-by-step instructions below to provide any necessary details you need or to check your code.
-
You will use a custom layout file containing a
RelativeLayout
with oneImageView
and twoTextView
s. -
You will write code to pull data out of your
Instructor
objects and load it into the views in the row; for example, you will assign the instructor's name to theText
property of one of theTextView
s.
Predefined Android layouts for a ListView
The completed application is shown below.
Required assets
The provided Exercise 3 folder contains resources that you will need in order to complete the lab, please make sure you have this folder before you begin.
- Assets/InstructorRow.axml contains a layout with views to display instructor data in a row.
- The Assets/images folder contains instructor photos.
Steps
Below are the step-by-step instructions to implement the exercise.
Add the starter code
- Add the provided images folder to the Assets folder in your project. Examine the folder contents and note that it contains a photo for each instructor. Check the Properties of one of the image files and verify its Build action is set to AndroidAsset - this should have happened automatically when you added the folder but it is worth checking now to avoid problems later when you access the images from code.
- Add the provided layout file InstructorRow.axml to the Resources/layout folder of the project. Open the file in the source-code editor. Notice that it has views for three of the instructor properties: photo, name, and specialty. The main job of an adapter is to instantiate (i.e. inflate) this layout file, lookup each of the views, and populate them with data from an instructor object.
Implement a custom adapter
You will need to write a class that inherits from BaseAdapter<Instructor>
and overrides its four abstract methods.
-
Add a new class named
InstructorAdapter
to the project. -
Set the base class of
InstructorAdapter
toBaseAdapter<Instructor>
. - Your adapter will need a reference to the collection of instructors. Add a constructor to your adapter class that takes the collection as a parameter and stores it in a field. This code is simple but tedious; if you would like to, you can copy the code hidden behind the "Show Code" button below to save time.
-
Override the indexer. It takes an integer position and returns the instructor at that position in the list. The prototype is shown below.
public abstract T this[int position] { get; }
-
Override the
Count
property. It should return the number of instructors in the list. The prototype is shown below.public abstract int Count { get; }
-
Override the
GetItemId
method. Use the instructor's position in the list as its id (this means you can just return the input argument as the result of this method). The prototype is shown below.public abstract long GetItemId(int position);
-
Override the
GetView
method. The prototype is shown below.public abstract View GetView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent);
-
Call
LayoutInflater.From(parent.Context)
to get an inflater. - Use the inflater to instantiate the InstructorRow.axml layout. Check the above hint for how to inflate a layout.
-
Use
FindViewById
on the layout you just inflated to get references to the three contained views (theImageView
with idphotoImageView
and the twoTextView
s with idsnameTextView
andspecialtyTextView
). -
Use the
position
parameter to locate the instructor object you need to display; you can simply useposition
as an index into your list of instructors. -
Create a
Drawable
from the instructor's image: first retrieve the URL of the image file from the instructor object. -
Use the
SetImageDrawable
method on theImageView
to load the instructor's photo. -
Assign the instructor's name to the
Text
property of thenameTextView
. -
Assign the instructor's specialty to the
Text
property of thespecialtyTextView
. - Return the inflated and populated view from the method.
-
Call
Use a custom adapter
Now that you have coded a custom adapter, you need to instantiate one and give it to your ListView
.
- Open MainActivity.cs.
-
Comment out or remove the line of code that created the
ArrayAdapter
. -
Instantiate an
InstructorAdapter
and assign it to theAdapter
property of theListView
. - Run the app to test your work. You should see each instructor displayed in a custom row with their photo, name, and specialty.
Summary
In this lab, you created a custom adapter and used it with aListView
. This required more work than using the standard ArrayAdapter
but gave you complete control over the row layout.
