The CSS outline properties specify the style, color, and width of an outline. An outline is a line that is drawn around elements (outside the borders) to make the element "stand out". However, the outline property is different from the border property. The outline is NOT a part of an element's dimensions; the element's total width and height is not affected by the width of the outline. This element has a thin black border and an outline that is 10px wide and green.

To redirect to another page in JavaScript, you can use window.location.href property, window.location will also work and if you want you can use window.open() method. Here’s an example using window.location.href property.
window.location.href="../index.html";
Redirect to another Page with Multiple Parameters
Now, to insert multiple parameters to the URL, you’ll have to define parameters with values using the ? (Question mark) and & (ampersand) symbols before redirecting. For example,
<script> let redirectPage = () => { const url = "https://www yourwebsite com/content/ocncontent?userid=43&contentid=9"; window.location.href = url; } </script>
In the above example, I am passing two parameters namely userid and contentid. The values are hardcoded. You can however get (or extract) the values for the URL parameters dynamically from textbox or input boxes.
<body> <!--I have two textbox for each paremeter.--> <p> <input type='text' id='book' /> </p> <p> <input type='text' id='b_name' /> </p> <input type='button' value='Click to Redirect' onclick='redirectPage()' /> </body> <script> let redirectPage = () => { ' Get textbox values. let v1 = document.getElementById('book'); let v2 = document.getElementById('b_name'); const url = "https://www.encodedna.com/javascript/demo/" + "check-if-url-contains-a-given-string-using-javascript.htm?book=" + v1.value + "&name=" + v2.value; window.location.href = url; } </script>
The above URL has two parameters book and name, for I am extracting the values from the two input boxes.
Let's execute the above code and see what happens. Click the button below. 👇
That's it. Thanks for reading. ☺

3G: The next thing down from WiFi in performance is the 3G (Third Generation) mobile phone network. The speed can approach WiFi, but is much more variable. 3G access may also be restricted in terms of the amount of data a mobile device is allowed to transfer, and there may be charges to use this connectivity. GPRS: In many areas 3G network coverage is not available. The phone will then fall back to the GPRS mobile network, which is much slower. The networking abilities are exposed as TCP/IP connections (we will explore what this means later in the text). Unfortunately, as you will have undoubtedly experienced, network coverage is not universal, and so software running on the phone GPRS mobile network, which is much slower.

This document specifies requirements and use cases for Full-Text Search for use in XQuery 3.0 [XQuery 3.0: An XML Query Language] and XPath 3.0 [XML Path Language (XPath) 3.0].
This section describes the status of this document at the time of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A list of current W3C publications and the latest revision of this technical report can be found in the W3C technical reports index at http://www.w3.org/TR/.
This is a First Public Working Draft as described in the Process Document. It was jointly developed by the W3C XML Query Working Group and the W3C XSL Working Group, each of which is part of the XML Activity. This document will eventually be published as a Working Group Note to persistently record the Requirements that guided the development of XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 as a W3C Recommendation.
This document includes, for each requirement, a corresponding status, indicating the current situation of the requirement in XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 at the time that the spec was most recently published on 13 December 2011. Organizations and individuals should review this document to determine whether or not the requirements provided meet the needs of the full-text community. If additional requirements are identified, they may be added to these requirements in a future publication.
A future publication of this document will incorporate a number of Use Cases that assist the Working Groups in determining whether a candidate requirement is, in fact, a real requirement and illustrating various problems that XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 is intended to address.
Please report errors in this document using W3C's public Bugzilla system (instructions can be found at http://www.w3.org/XML/2005/04/qt-bugzilla). If access to that system is not feasible, you may send your comments to the W3C XSLT/XPath/XQuery public comments mailing list<EMAIL_ADDRESS>It will be very helpful if you include the string “[FT30req]” in the subject line of your report, whether made in Bugzilla or in email. Please use multiple Bugzilla entries (or, if necessary, multiple email messages) if you have more than one comment to make. Archives of the comments and responses are available at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-qt-comments/.
Publication as a Working Draft does not imply endorsement by the W3C Membership. This is a draft document and may be updated, replaced or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to cite this document as other than work in progress.
This document was produced by groups operating under the 5 February 2004 W3C Patent Policy. W3C maintains a public list of any patent disclosures made in connection with the deliverables of the XML Query Working Group and also maintains a public list of any patent disclosures made in connection with the deliverables of the XSL Working Group; those pages also include instructions for disclosing a patent. An individual who has actual knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains Essential Claim(s) must disclose the information in accordance with section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy.

A.1 Non-Normative
The goal of XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 is to extend XQuery and XPath Full Text 1.0 with additional functionality in response to requests from users and implementors.
The following key words are used throughout the document to specify the extent to which an item is a requirement for the work of the XML Query Working Group:
This word means that the item is an absolute requirement.
This word means that there may exist valid reasons not to treat this item as a requirement, but the full implications should be understood and the case carefully weighed before discarding this item.
This word means that an item deserves attention, but further study is needed to determine whether the item should be treated as a requirement.
When the words MUST, SHOULD, or MAY are used in this technical sense, they occur as a hyperlink to these definitions. These words will also be used with their conventional English meaning, in which case there is no hyperlink. For instance, the phrase "the full implications should be understood" uses the word "should" in its conventional English sense, and therefore occurs without the hyperlink.
Each requirement also includes a status section, indicating its current situation in the XML-Query family of specifications. Three status levels are available:
This indicates that the requirement, according to its original formulation, has been completely met. Optional clarificatory text may follow.
This indicates that the requirement has been partially met according to its original formulation. When this happens, explanatory text is provided to better clarify the current scope of the requirement.
This indicates that the requirement, according to its original formulation, has not been met. If this is the case, explanatory text is provided.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST be compatible with XQuery and XPath 3.0 extensions developed by the XML Query Working Group and the XSL Working Group.
Status: this requirement has been met.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST add feature names for XQuery require-feature and prohibit-feature to include the names defined in the "http://www.w3.org/2011/xquery-features" namespace.
Status: this requirement has been met.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST specify in the Language Option how to handle multiple language identifiers for the same language, including languages represented by both two- and three- letter identifiers.
Status: this requirement has been met.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST support adding marker elements around token matches. How the element will be marked MAY be specified by an EQName or a function item as argument.
Status: this requirement has not been met. The Working Group has yet to decide whether it will be a requirement for this or any other version.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST define an optional URI to identify stemming algorithms. Issue raised in Bugzilla Bug 9680.
Status: this requirement has not been met. The Working Group has yet to decide whether it will be a requirement for this or any other version.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST refine language about levels in FTThesaurus Option. Issue raised in Bugzilla Bug 11444.
Status: this requirement has not been met. The Working Group has yet to decide whether it will be a requirement for this or any other version.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST support explicitly tokenizing an item and returning a sequence of strings.
Status: this requirement has not been met. The Working Group has yet to decide whether it will be a requirement for this or any other version.
XQuery and XPath Full Text 3.0 MUST enable counting the number of occurrences of search terms specified in a full-text expression.
Status: this requirement has not been met. The Working Group has yet to decide whether it will be a requirement for this or any other version.

--- layout: default title: QIAN Improvement Proposals ---
QIAN Improvement Proposals (QIPs) describe standards for the QIAN platform, including core protocol specifications, client APIs, and contract standards.
Your first PR should be a first draft of the final QIP. It must meet the
formatting criteria enforced by the build (largely, correct metadata in the
header). An editor will manually review the first PR for a new QIP and assign
it a number before merging it. Make sure you include a
discussions-to
header with the URL to a discussion forum or open
GitHub issue where people can discuss the QIP as a whole.
If your QIP requires images, the image files should be included in a
subdirectory of the `assets` folder for that QIP as follow:
assets/qip-X
(for qip X). When linking to an image in the
QIP, use relative links such as ../assets/qip-X/image.png
.
When you believe your QIP is mature and ready to progress past the WIP phase,
you should ask to have your issue added to the next governance call where it
can be discussed for inclusion in a future platform upgrade. If the community
agrees to include it, the QIP editors will update the state of your QIP to
Approved
.

THE FLOWER OF MY SECRET A film review by Edwin Jahiel Copyright 1996 Edwin Jahiel
A Woman on the Edge of a Nervous Breakdown
THE FLOWER OF MY SECRET (Spain, 1995) (La Flor de mi Secreto) *** 1/2 Written & directed by Pedro Almodovar. Executive producer, Agustin Almodovar. Director of Production, Esther Garcia. Photography, Affonso Beato. Editing, Jose Salcedo. Music, Alberto Iglesias. Cast: Maria Paredes (Leo), Juan Echanove (Angel), Imanol Arias (Paco), Carmen Elias (Betty), Rossy De Palma (Rosa), Chus Lampreave (Mother), Joaquin Cortes (Antonio), Manuela Vargas (Blanca), et al. A Sony Classics release. In Spanish with subtitles. 100 minutes. Rated R. (some open but inoffensive sex talk).
The nice thing about the "enfants terribles" of art is that when they keep the faith, they keep their youth and ebullience and can still be called "bad boys." Like Pedro Almodovar who was 44 when he made THE FLOWER OF MY SECRET. Happily for us, he stuck to his melodramatic style (partly inherited from Hollywood directors like Douglas Sirk and Vincente Minnelli), even heightened it, while not abandoning his special sense of humor.
Melodrama is not always an easy term to define, or to distinguish from plain drama, tragicomedy or TV soapers. Beyond tricky and shifting parameters and classifications, melodrama is essentially like pornography: you can't apply rules to it, but you know it when you see it.
In some important respects, FLOWER does not follow the conventions of melodrama. Emotions are exaggerated, but not all that much, given the temperament of Latins; the characters are not stereotyped; there are no villains to be punished and no heroes who triumph. And while there are several players in the film, it is essentially a one-woman show.
The woman (Maria Paredes, who played the mother in HIGH HEELS and is perfect in her role here) is called Leo, short for Leocadia. (An unusual name. In case theatre buffs wonder, it is unconnected to the play LEOCADIA by Jean Anouilh). She is fortyish, attractive, and emotionally in a bad way. No, she is not crazy, but she misses her husband Paco, a high-ranking Army officer away at NATO Headquarters in Brussels. And she worries about her marriage-on-the-rocks.
It would be unfair to give away the plot and twists of the movie. Leo's predicament is built up gradually and brilliantly, through the people she comes in contact with and via events that may at first seem to be odd, mysterious or disconnected but in reality make a solid fabric for the story. There are many threads in FLOWER but they come together in plausible ways. There are several loose ends, but even when they seem absurd, they turn out to make make very good sense -- because they are the loose ends of life, not those of a film's structure.
Among them is the secret of Amanda Gris, a mysterious, best-selling authoress of romantic potboilers; Leo's serious literary ambitions; her meeting with Angel, the paunchy, simpatico cultural pages editor of "El Pais" (a real newspaper) who falls for her; the Leo-Angel meeting of minds in their love of feminist literature (almost all of it Anglo); their divergences on writer Amanda Gris; Leo's maid Blanca, a retired flamenco dancer who, at some point appears in a splendid, post-modern flamenco performance with her son Antonio; Antonio who finances the show in unorthodox ways that involve Leo; Leo's sister Rosa with whom their aged mother lives in perpetual turmoil.
(Rosa is played by the hatchet-faced actress who is a staple in Almodovar movies; the mother, by a versatile veteran actress of comedy who is excellent here and goes from tantrums to natural advice that helps Leo's sanity. Almodovar drew on his own mother for that part).
There is also Leo's best female friend, a psychologist, and husband Paco, back on a short leave on his way to Bosnia. Surprises abound, not in set-piece style but in realistic, albeit highly emotional ways. Double-edged, funny as well as bittersweet sequences, such as Leo and too-tight boots or the opening scenes that deal with announcing the death of a son, then make a pitch for organ donation --yet fool you. (Don't ask).
Almodovar does not cheat, but nor does he take us by the hand to guide us in the maze he has created. He ought to make a thriller some day, with his skills in suspense and surprise. Almodovar is openly gay, but in this film, if there are any hints of same-sex relations, they must be well hidden. On the other hand, the writer-director understands women remarkably well and with immense empathy and sympathy. He also understands the construction of films. The scenes play through to the end, yet retain their ability to surprise us with their mix of the contemporary Spanish zeitgeist, literary matters and personal problems.
The production is first-rate, with top photography that runs from documentary-like objectivity to great symbolic shots, like those of the return of Paco seen through a number of small mirrors on the wall or those of the marital bed. Almodovar's usual garish-on-purpose colors have been much toned down, even made into pastels at times, in keeping with the mood.
There is a lot of drinking in the film, and even more conversation, so much of it that one needs a quick eye to catch the many elusive subtitles -- a small liability for non-Spanish speakers. I am all for subtitles, and I can get riled at the laziness of viewers who say "I can't see the movie for having to read it." In FLOWER, however, this is sometimes justified, but it should not discourage one from seeing the film. It is not as outrageous or surreal as many other Almodovar pictures, not as mordant and provocative, so that you have to gear down to a warmer and more accessible yet rich psychological level. Even so, there are no dull moments or any bits you wish had been cut out.

--- title: "Eventum: An Event-Driven CMS" date: 2014-07-16 featured_image: writing/eventum-an-event-driven-cms.png hero_style: large ---
Late April, 2014. I’m clicking through the public Google Calendar for ADI, Columbia’s tech club. I’m editing the details of one our last events for the year, and I’m pissed. I was particiating in a coordinated attack on our website’s performance, and I was doing so willingly.
At the time, the ADI website was loading the details for upcoming workshops and tech talks using the Google Calendar API in JavaScript. Every time someone visited adicu.com, their browser requested the last month’s worth of events from Google Calendar, and then painstakingly parsed them into HTML. What’s worse is that we needed to hold separate resources, short description, and long description all in the description field of the Google Calendar event. Gross. To accomplish this, said description had to be formatted as follows:
{% highlight python %} Short Description --- Long Description --- slides --> http://link-to-slides.com/this_event code samples --> http://github.com/adicu/this_event ... {% endhighlight %}It was painful. The JavaScript (which I dug up directly from our old site) says it all:
{% highlight js %} var parts = event.description.split("---"); event.description = parts[0]; if (parts.length == 3) { event.longDescription = parts[1]; var resources = parts[2]; resources = resources.split("-->"); event.resources = {}; for (var x = 0; x < resources.length; x += 2) { event.resources[resources[x].toLowerCase().trim()] = resources[x+1]; } } {% endhighlight %}This string parsing is extremely expensive when it’s being done on every event we pulled in, every time our front page loaded. I knew we could do better.
But, with our website running in Jekyll on GitHub Pages, we couldn’t run any server code that would cache our Events, because Jekyll only serves static files. If we were to solve this problem, then we’d need to run adicu.com on a real web server.
This is when I came up with the idea for Eventum, an event-driven content management system (CMS) that syncs with Google Apps.
The idea behind Eventum is that on sites like ADI’s, creating events is just as important as creating blog posts. Technologies like Jekyll were great for ADI as we were starting out, because we could advertise new events or share a cool hackathon project just by writing a Markdown file. (Jekyll converts a folder full of Markdown files into a static blog site. It’s really cool!) As we grew however, we wanted a more full-featured solution for our events, and we couldn’t find one.
As I began to mock up the early versions of Eventum, I laid some basic features that our new events system would need. First: Markdown editing. Markdown is simple to learn, extremely portable, and sufficiently powerful; plus, it’s what ADI used for writing blog posts and event announcements. Second: Sync with Google Calendar. ADI members rely very heavily on our Google Calendar as the definitive state of what events we a running and when, and I couldn’t just take that away. And finally: Support for our two-calendar system. We use a private calendar for tentative events, and a public calendar for announced events. Eventum would need to manage events across both calendars in order to fit in with ADI’s workflow.
Fast forward to today, the first version of Eventum powers ADI’s new website(which, incidentally, has recently gotten a face-lift). It’s far from perfect, but being able to edit events through a webapp rather than in the Google Calendar description field is a definite plus.
Eventum is built in Python and Flask, and blog posts and events use EpicEditorfor in-browser Markdown editing. Also, Eventum supports ADI’s two-calendar system: when you publish an event, it is flipped from our tentative calendar to our public calendar.
{% include resimg.html src="writing/eventum-an-event-driven-cms-editors.png" %}Eventum also has a permission system that allows administrators to limit what different users can do on Eventum (generate content, publish it, or manage user accounts), and an interface to manage images uploaded to the page.
This first version of Eventum covers the basic needs that I enumerated at the start of the summer, but it’s far from finished. I’m still building out new features and resolving bugs. The Eventum codebase is currently intertwined with the ADI website, and I’m hoping to separate the two soon. In doing so, it could at some point become a plug-and-play CMS.
I’ve already had some help from ADI board members to brainstorm new features and layout a roadmap for development. Moreover, members of the newly-formed ADI Labs program (including myself) will be adding new features to Eventum and making it even better. Hey, maybe one day I’ll actually have test coverage.

Open the oysters carefully with an oyster knife and remove from the shell. Place them into a bowl with the juices.
Wash the shells under cold water and dry. Place the oysters back into the shell. Strain the juices through a fine sieve and pour back over the oysters.
To make the sauce (Pauvre Homme), place the red wine vinegar, bay leaf and thyme into a pan and reduce until almost all the contents are evaporated.
Add the port and reduce again until it forms a sticky syrup.
Add the red wine and bring to the boil then immediately remove from the heat and allow to cool. To finish the sauce add the chopped shallots and chopped chives.
To serve, lay the oysters, in their shells, on a platter with crushed ice. Serve the sauce, lemon, brown bread and butter on the side.


Buddha Park in Vientian
by Monika Suchoszek
Buddha Park, located 26km from the city center, was our main destination for that day. We decided to use the public transportation to get there and it turned out to be an easy and cheap solution. First you need to go to the central bus station which is divided into two parts: CBS1 and CBS2. You can easily find an information boards about bus routes and prices with the description in English. It was necessary to get bus number 14 from the CBS2 part of the bus station and after around 40 min of a bus ride we arrived to Buddha Park. All tourists on the bus were going there and the women selling tickets on the bus very loudly shouted the name of the stop and took care that all tourists are out :D The bus also passes the immigration office next to the Friendship Bridge on the border with Thailand. Our visit in Buddha Park took around 1,5 hour and we caught the bus back on the other side of the street where we got off.
Buddha Park is a sculpture park with more than 200 religious statues made of concrete. A huge dome-shaped sculpture consist of three levels: the lowest showing hell, then middle one is an earth and heaven on the top with nice view over the whole park. Huge demon’s mouth are the entrance to this scary place. It is really narrow inside and probably always very crowded.  That’d why this place is full of Buddha images, Hindu gods, demons and animals common in both beliefs. You can easily buy there a snack or chill out in cafe nearby the Mekong river.
After nice lunch in the city center we walked to check Patuxai, a war monument, victory gate surrounded by a nice green park with fountain. It is possible to walk to the top of the monument and admire the view of the city. That’s exactly what we did :) On the way to the top you can buy souvenirs and clothes from the local vendors. The monument inside is not well maintained, many bird nests destroyed the paintings on the ceiling.
Practical information:
- Bus ticket to Buddha Park - 6 000 Kip per person, one way
- Entrance ticket to Buddha Park - 15 000 Kip per person
- Entrance to Patuxai - 3 000 Kip per person

In the next few chapters we'll see some examples of the class library at work. At the beginning of the chapter, we listed some application areas. Now we'll run briefly through how the toolkit supports some of these to give a feel for how it might be useful.
Imagine that you had one accounting system until the end of 1997. You switched in 1998, and there were some slight differences in the new chart of accounts that grouped things differently at a high level, in addition to merging one or two existing accounts. Not being administratively perfect, you didn't get it all set up on the first of January, and there is an annoying discrepancy at the changeover point you can't figure out. Export scripts can be written to get the data into BookSets. A dictionary can be prepared that maps account names in the old system to account names in the new one, and then both sets of data can be merged. Ad hoc queries using an interactive prompt also make it easy to see where data doesn't match.
One of the main uses of Doubletalk is building detailed cash-flow forecasts. Most cash-flow forecasts are done in Excel, but they tend to focus only on cash; building and maintaining a spreadsheet to correctly handle a full balance sheet and profit and loss is hard work in Excel, and anything less is ultimately not useful for long-term planning. It's also important to lay out your forecast using the same headings and tree structure as the actual data and to take care not to leave black holes where the past data meets the future. Large corporations have often invested a great deal in building such models of their businesses. The combination of object-oriented programming and our class library makes it easy.
The general concept is to create a hierarchy of business model objects that represent things in the business; these generate a stream of future transactions at the right time. The module demodata.py uses crude examples of this to generate a file of 1000 transactions. Here's a simple base class for this hierarchy:
class BusinessObject: def getTransactions(self): return []
There are a limited number of common business objects that can be modeled quite accurately. For example, a simple loan can be described by just four attributes: amount, date drawn, interest rate, and number of periods. A Loan object is initialized with these attributes and generates a stream of transactions covering the drawdown and the subsequent repayments. An IncomeItem gives rise to an invoice and a payment transaction, with a time lag. An IncomeStream creates a series of IncomeItems, perhaps with a given annual growth rate. The model usually needs changing only a little each month and represents cash flows accurately.
A more sophisticated model uses a discrete-event simulation approach, sending ticks of the clock to the business objects and allowing objects to make decisions based on the state of the accounts and to interact with each other. For example, a CorporationTax object could wake up once a year, look at the profits, and schedule in a few payments a few months ahead.
This approach is also important in the securities industry, where quantitative analysts (quants) build models of portfolios of financial instruments and see how they behave under different economic scenarios. A financial instrument can be seen as a business model object that gives rise to transactions at various points in its lifetime.
Our BookSet and Transaction classes can be thought of as classifying amounts of money by time and by account—a 2D classification. In fact, many standard financial reports follow a format of months across the top, and accounts (drawn from some level of the tree) down the left. Previously, we saw how to extend the system to add any attributes we wish. This effectively makes it a multidimensional model. Analyzing multidimensional data is a big business currently using the buzzword OLAP (online analytical processing). Furthermore, a common problem is to ensure the integrity of the double-entry while querying and selecting subsets of data. There is almost have a data warehouse in our BookSet; however, it's currently optimized for adding, editing, and deleting transactions, not for querying.
To query the BookSet , flatten the transactions into a separate list of facts per line. Taking the sales transaction earlier, you might extract something like what's in Table 6.1.
|
Date |
Account |
Customer |
Project |
Amount |
|---|---|---|---|---|

...Creditors |

This kind of fact-table structure is as easy to analyze in Python as it is in SQL. However, Python has a big advantage over the database world in that it's not tied to particular sets of facts, or column headings, beforehand. Transactions have the following method, which converts a three-line transaction to a list of three dictionaries, each with all the facts about transaction and line:
class Transaction: # (one method of many) def asDicts(self): dicts = [] i = 0 for line in self.lines: rowdict = self.__dict__.copy() del rowdict['lines'] rowdict['account'] = line[0] rowdict['amount'] = line[1] if line[2]: rowdict.update(line[2]) i = i + 1 dicts.append(rowdict) return dicts
Running this on the example transaction gives everything you need to know:
>>> pprint(t.asDicts()) [{'Customer': 'HugeCo', 'InvoiceNo': 199904007, 'Project': 'P2', 'account': 'MyCo.Capital.PL.Income.Consulting', 'amount': 10000, 'comment': '<New Transaction>', 'date': 925247872}, {'Customer': 'HugeCo', 'InvoiceNo': 199904007, 'Project': 'P1', 'account': 'MyCo.Capital.PL.Income.Consulting', 'amount': 15000, 'comment': '<New Transaction>', 'date': 925247872}, {'Customer': 'HugeCo', 'InvoiceNo': 199904007, 'account': 'MyCo.NCA.CurrentAssets.Creditors', 'amount': 25000, 'comment': '<New Transaction>', 'date': 925247872}] >>>
This is just a few lines away from an SQL-like query language that can pull out arbitrary queries from a BookSet, tabulating the keys it's interested in from the previous lists of dictionaries. You also have the ability to drill down from higher-level summaries of the data to the individual transactions that gave rise to them.
Many accounting systems can't do a cash-flow report. This sounds shocking, but it's true. The reason is they store the individual transaction lines, often in a separate table for each account and have lost the transaction itself. The cash flow report records where all the cash came from and where it went to, and is an important tool for managers.
To get a basic cash-flow report, you need to look at the other lines in all the transactions affecting the cash account. If you buy all your supplies with cash, this report breaks down how you spent your money. But if most sales and purchases are on account, the system produces the earth-shattering observation that most of your cash comes from other people paying your bills, and it goes to pay other peoples' bills. We'll call this the Brain-Dead Cash-Flow Analysis (BDCFA). A general ledger doesn't formally store the information needed to trace through the system and see what the bill you just paid was actually for.
This analysis is easy to do, if you tag the transactions with a customer and invoice number. Write a script to find all transactions with a given invoice number, add together the invoice and payment using the magic addition methods, and then perform a BDCFA on that. This lets you trace where cash went through a series of transactions.
In the context of a business, our toolkit could easily be (and has been) used to:
Hold data exported from an accounts system
Generate future data from a financial model
Put the past and future together on the same basis
Analyze this stream in various ways to produce the data for reports
Dig down to extract more detail from totals in reports
Compare this month's actual/forecast data against what we thought we would achieve at the beginning of the year

Read Genesis 18:1-15 and Daniel 3:24-25. Would you recognize these incidences as visitations from God?
This all-night wrestling match was clearly a Divine encounter. Not only does the reference in Hosea 12 let us know that God was present here; the authority we see the mysterious wrestling partner display in renaming Jacob is the same authority displayed by God in renaming Jacob’s grandparents. Those clues help us see that God showed up in person in Jacob’s hour of need. That night forced Jacob to stop grasping at things and ambitions and grab hold of God Himself. Still, Jacob was bold enough to ask his wrestling partner for a blessing.
Reread Genesis 32:27. When Jacob asked for a blessing, what did his wrestling partner ask him, and what was Jacob’s answer?
The last time Jacob had asked for a blessing (from his father), he had lied, misrepresented himself, and taken on the identity of his brother. This time when Jacob asked for a blessing (from his heavenly Father), he was again asked in return, “What is your name?” His answer was both an introduction and a confession: “I am Jacob,” he said truthfully. Deceiver. Swindler. Taker of what is not mine.
God must have been satisfied with that answer, because He knew it took a lot for Jacob to speak the truth at last. Even so, He wasn’t satisfied with the man standing before Him. God wants to hear our honest confession and assessment of who we are and where we find ourselves, but that doesn’t mean He’ll leave us that way. Only when we are honest about our desperate state and our desperate need for Him can He set about changing us to become the ones He wants us to be.
Reread Genesis 32:28. What new name did God give to Jacob, and why?
At that moment, Jacob the Deceiver no longer existed. The man left limping at daybreak was now Israel—which means “He Who Wrestles with God.” The nation that once was promised to Abraham and Sarah now had a name. They were the children of Israel—the ones who wrestle with God.
But that isn’t the end of the story. Jacob went on to ask the name of his wrestling partner. We will explore this in greater depth tomorrow. For now, take note of the answer Jacob’s wrestling partner gave and how Jacob responded.

To avoid setting the same options on each share component/directive, you can set your custom options that applies on all share buttons components across your app.
Example
If you want to set the options globally while lazy loading the library, you can provide your custom config as
SHARE_BUTTONS_CONFIG
value, this will set the defaults before the library is loaded.
Or you can set these config with the library using withConfig()
function, example:

iSALUTE https://www.inscom.army.mil/isalute/
iSALUTE provides a user-friendly means to report Counterintelligence Information for the entire Army Community and establishes Army-wide iSALUTE reporting procedures and availability. iSALUTE does not require a log-on to report CI Information. iSALUTE promotes foreign threat awareness across all commands and leverages every member of the Army community as a sensor to help identify and prevent potential espionage or international terrorist acts against the Army.
iSALUTE is an on-line Counterintelligence (CI) Reporting Portal designed to complement other Army threat awareness and reporting initiatives and foster partnerships with CI, law enforcement organizations and Army communities. iSALUTE focuses on foreign threats to DoD and the Army from espionage activities, terrorist threats, and the insider threat.
The critical element of iSALUTE involves individuals reporting questionable activities to Army Counterintelligence. Reports can be initiated through the iSALUTE on-line reporting portal. Basic information is transmitted to the Army CI Coordinating Authority (ACICA) for review and referral to the local CI Office or other agencies for further investigation as needed. Individuals can also initiate reports in person or by calling their supporting CI Office. CONUS personnel can also report via 1-800-CALLSPY(225-5779).
How & What to Report
When you are interviewed by Army Counterintelligence, give as many details as you can. Here is a checklist to help.
- Size: Number and detailed description of people and vehicles. Identifying information such as unique distinguishing characteristics and license plates are important.
- Activity: What are the people/vehicles doing? What is suspicious? Provide as many details as possible.
- Location: Location(s) of people, vehicles, or activities. Include direction of travel and names of roads(if known)
- Unit: What unit they belong to, any markings, or insignias? Other identifying information on clothing or person such as brands, names, pictures, numbers or tattoos.
- Time: Time and date you observed the behavior. Include timeline of activities during observation. How long did you observe in total? Note time of any significant events or changes during observation.
- Equipment: Describe with as much detail as possible any equipment observed; such as cameras, writing/sketching instruments, tools, communications equipment, computer equipment, or weapons present.

mViewer supports several data stretches. In the following, you can click on a command to see the results of its stretch. The simplest possible stretch processes the image into 256 bins equally spaced between the minimum and maximum data values. For astronomical images this is almost always a bad idea: mViewer -ct 1 -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits min max linear -png min_max_lin.png The reason for this is that astronomical images usually have most of their pixel values clumped near the low end of the data range (and often all "in the noise"). The stretch can be improved by applying a non-linear stretch binned in the log of the data value (or other functions like sqrt(), which we do not support): mViewer -ct 1 -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits min max log -png min_max_log.png Many images have extremely high dynamic range, so even log() may not be enough. mViewer supports log(log()) and higher variants: mViewer -ct 1 -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits min max loglog -png min_max_loglog.png This tends to de-emphasize the low-level structure to the point where much of it vanishes. That may be a good thing but often is not. So mViewer allows various ways of setting the range of the binning. For instance, stretching from the first percentile in the distribution to the 99th yields: mViewer -ct 1 -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits 1% 99% log -png 1_99_log.png Of course, to get percentiles you need to generate a histogram. For a lot of astronomical images this will look like a gaussian (the noise or real low-level structure) and a very long positive tail. It also means we can couch levels in terms of "sigma" values: mViewer -ct 1 -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits -2s max log -png 2s_max_log.png With the histogram we could also stretch in terms of a histogram equalization. However, with the bulk of the distribution being noise/low-level structure, this doesn't usually look very good. Instead, we perform a gaussian histogram equalization which is based on the error function (erf()) rather than the histogram itself: mViewer -ct 1 -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits -2s max gaussian -png 2s_max_gaussian.png Again, the emphasis is often much more on the values in the long positive tail, so we also support distorting the above with a log transform:mViewer -ct 1 -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits -2s max gaussian-log -png 2s_max_gaussianlog.png This last stretch is will do a creditable job on almost any image. In fact, the only variation that usually needs to be made is the the lower limit: -2σ works well where the low values are real structure and higher values (up to about +1σ) may be more appropriate the more the low-level structure is noise. Also available is a sinh() stretch. Others could easily be added. The default image for this page combined a stretch with a "pseudo-color" color table: mViewer -ct 4 -color ffffff -label 100p 50p "50% max gaussian" -gray fits/SDSS_r.fits 0s max gaussian -png colorStretch.png The mViewer stretching has one more variant. Sometimes one has a set of images that all need to be stretched the same way. For instance, you might have a set of adjacent tiles that are kept as separate files rather than being coadded into one giant (an unmanageable) single image. You still want to display them (perhaps side by side) as if they were part of a single whole. Alternatively, you might have a collection of galaxy image that you want to view on the same scale and with the same stretch. Normally, mViewer analyzes each image separately, resulting in very different stretches. To get all the images on the same stretch (especially the data-dependent gaussian histogram equalization) we can generate a histogram (based on whatever image you wish to use as reference) using the Montage mHistogram module. This uses the same algorithm as mViewer but writes the results to a file. mViewer can the be told to use this histogram file rather than generating one at run time. This is done inside the "-gray" (and "-red", "-green", "-blue") directive using the following construct:
Instead of, e.g., "-gray image.fits -2s max gaussian-log" Use "-gray image.fits -histfile ref.hist" The same histogram file can thus be applied to as many images as you need. |

Good example: plotly.io, reacts quickly to user requests and bug reports
Quick turnaround time on bug reports and fixes is important.
Of all your users, maybe 5 % interact with you, retain those to turn them into contributors, make the community sustainable.
Communication is key here, people spent time communicating with you, so you should also spend time responding to them.
Make it obvious how to contact you and contribute patches or bug reports. Feedback forms are great, as are issue trackers.
The community's response time to issues and patches is a good measure of the project's viability.
Make it easy and obvious for people contributing to submit the right kind of patches/bug reports. This lowers the effort of contributors to handle patches/issues.

I've devoted quite a few days in the past month to learning Ruby on Rails. This decision seemed logical: since I was a beginner, I needed a framework and language that would be easy to comprehend (hence Ruby). Also, I'd seen that many applications use the framework and that many freelancers specialize in programming it. Hey, it's "easy" and there's demand! I was in.
Rails specializes in MVC control and stability. Years of use have created a stable public build with persistent conventions and thriving community.
With Ruby as a clean and readable language, writing models, controllers, and views is pleasant. Rails also
provides useful data structures like the session
and flash
hashes which "remember" your activities even when
you leave the application.
Something that Rails lacks in, however, is a clean front end. It produces views using embedded ruby in html, which is essentially just using html. The essence of web UI is javascript, which Rails has trouble implementing. Rails is great for large application back-ends, but, on it's own, can't serve data to the user in a efficient, modern way. Despite this, the giant community around Rails has developed multiple plugins for modern front-end Javascript frameworks such as Angular.
Node.js
Is a framework, leveraging the power of javascript, that "uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that make it perfect for data-intensive, real-time apps"...I left out the rest but that's the gist. Max Ogden, director of OaklandJS, describes the situation well:
Rails, the popular web framework, is great for modeling complex business logic, e.g. using code to represent real-life business objects like accounts, loans, etc. Node.js could address that, but since it is designed for I/O problems and doesn't understand "business logic", there would be definite drawbacks.
Node shines in delivering data in a non-blocking way from multiple sources. This works well for views because it allows a programmer to create single-page apps, which are the epitomy of good UI in my opinion. Furthermore, since it is written in javascript it can integrate other useful javascript libraries such as AngularJS with ease.
However, Node.js doesn't provide a total web framework solution. It would be interesting to learn a web framework implementation of Node.js such as Sails which intends to replicate Rails.
What to do?
The question of my day is, continue learning Rails, which is designed for business logic back-ends, or start learning javascript and Node.js, which allows for rapid creation of applications with highly successful UI. When it comes down to it, right now I'm interested in getting an app running, top-to-bottom. While it seems like Rails is the easy choice because of my studying thus far and the agility of development, learning a javascript based framework will allow for much more freedom in designing a cool front-end. Since my app is going to be small and not really trying to do business, it sure as hell should have a nice UI. It may be time to dabble in UX while I don't have any business to worry about.


13.2 spdet — Determinacy Checker
Synopsis
% spdet [-r] [-d] [-D] [-i ifile] fspec...
Description
The determinacy checker can help you spot unwanted nondeterminacy in
your programs. This tool examines your program source
code and points out places where nondeterminacy may arise.
Options
- -r
- Process files recursively, fully checking the specified files and all
the files they load.
- -d
- Print out declarations that should be added.
- -D
- Print out all needed declarations.
- -i ifile
- An initialization file, which is loaded before processing begins.
