Contents
This is a design document detailing the implementation of a way for Ganeti to detect whether an instance marked as up but not running was shutdown gracefully by the user from inside the instance itself.
Ganeti keeps track of the desired status of instances in order to be able to take proper action (e.g.: reboot) on the instances that happen to crash. Currently, the only way to properly shut down an instance is through Ganeti’s own commands, which can be used to mark an instance as ADMIN_down.
If a user shuts down an instance from inside, through the proper command of the operating system it is running, the instance will be shutdown gracefully, but Ganeti is not aware of that: the desired status of the instance will still be marked as running, so when the watcher realises that the instance is down, it will restart it. This behaviour is usually not what the user expects.
We propose to modify Ganeti in such a way that it will detect when an instance was shutdown as a result of an explicit request from the user. When such a situation is detected, instead of presenting an error as it happens now, either the state of the instance will be set to ADMIN_down, or the instance will be automatically rebooted, depending on an instance-specific configuration value. The default behavior in case no such parameter is found will be to follow the apparent will of the user, and setting to ADMIN_down an instance that was shut down correctly from inside.
The rest of this design document details the implementation of instance shutdown detection for Xen. The KVM implementation is detailed in KVM daemon.
Xen knows why a domain is being shut down (a crash or an explicit shutdown or poweroff request), but such information is not usually readily available externally, because all such cases lead to the virtual machine being destroyed immediately after the event is detected.
Still, Xen allows the instance configuration file to define what action to be taken in all those cases through the on_poweroff, on_shutdown and on_crash variables. By setting them to preserve, Xen will avoid destroying the domains automatically.
When the domain is not destroyed, it can be viewed by using xm list (or xl list in newer Xen versions), and the State field of the output will provide useful information.
If the state is ----c- it means the instance has crashed.
If the state is ---s-- it means the instance was properly shutdown.
If the instance was properly shutdown and it is still marked as running by Ganeti, it means that it was shutdown from inside by the user, and the Ganeti status of the instance needs to be changed to ADMIN_down.
This will be done at regular intervals by the group watcher, just before deciding which instances to reboot.
On top of that, at the same time, the watcher will also need to issue xm destroy commands for all the domains that are in a crashed or shutdown state, since this will not be done automatically by Xen anymore because of the preserve setting in their config files.
This behavior will be limited to the domains shut down from inside, because it will actually keep the resources of the domain busy until the watcher will do the cleaning job (that, with the default setting, is up to every 5 minutes). Still, this is considered acceptable, because it is not frequent for a domain to be shut down this way. The cleanup function will be also run automatically just before performing any job that requires resources to be available (such as when creating a new instance), in order to ensure that the new resource allocation happens starting from a clean state. Functionalities that only query the state of instances will not run the cleanup function.
The cleanup operation includes both node-specific operations (the actual destruction of the stopped domains) and configuration changes, to be performed on the master node (marking as offline an instance that was shut down internally). The watcher, on the master node, will fetch the list of instances that have been shutdown from inside (recognizable by their oper_state as described below). It will then submit a series of InstanceShutdown jobs that will mark such instances as ADMIN_down and clean them up (after the functionality of InstanceShutdown will have been extended as specified in the rest of this design document).
LUs performing operations other than an explicit cleanup will have to be modified to perform the cleanup as well, either by submitting a job to perform the cleanup (to be completed before actually performing the task at hand) or by explicitly performing the cleanup themselves through the RPC calls.
The implementation of this design document will require some commands to be changed in order to cope with the new shutdown procedure.
With the default shutdown action in Xen set to preserve, the Ganeti command for shutting down instances would leave them in a shutdown but preserved state. Therefore, it will have to be changed in such a way to immediately perform the cleanup of the instance after verifying its correct shutdown. Also, it will correctly deal with instances that have been shutdown from inside but are still active according to Ganeti, by detecting this situation, destroying the instance and carrying out the rest of the Ganeti shutdown procedure as usual.
The gnt-instance list command will need to be able to handle the situation where an instance was shutdown internally but not yet cleaned up. The admin_state field will maintain the current meaning unchanged. The oper_state field will get a new possible state, S, meaning that the instance was shutdown internally.
The gnt-instance info command State field, in such case, will show a message stating that the instance was supposed to be run but was shut down internally.


The online deletion feature lets the rippled server delete the server's local copy of old ledger versions to keep disk usage from rapidly growing over time. The default config file sets online deletion to run automatically, but online deletion can also be configured to run only when prompted. New in: rippled 0.27.0
The server always keeps the complete current state of the ledger, with all the balances and settings it contains. The deleted data includes older transactions and versions of the ledger state that are older than the stored history.
Tip
Even with online deletion, the amount of disk space required to store the same time span's worth of ledger data increases over time, because the size of individual ledger versions tends to grow over time. This growth is very slow in comparison to the accumulation of data that occurs without deleting old ledgers. For more information on disk space needs, see Capacity Planning.


Sinapse platform: the definitive solution for Agile development
We use Data Distribution Manager as the core of Sinapse High Avalailablity. Sinapse is able to distribute, across multiple servers, workflows execution, balance load conditions and can recover from servers failure using a distributed system based on Data Distribution Manager.
A simple overview, from our presentations, is as the following one:
To be interoperable Sinapse front-end is based on OPC-UA protocol, the backend is based on a specific version of Data Distribution Manager.
Messages as the glue
Sinapse platform is genral purpose module based platform: modules communication is based on serializable structured messages. All Sinapse modules are insulated and doesn't know anthing about other modules, there is a loosely-coupled linkage between them: modules use serializable messages to exchange information between them. During run-time, Sinapse core make aware a module about the message. These messages are exchanged from the modules of Sinapse platform using the reliable common bus.
An overview of a single message is as the following figure:
Dynamic processor
The messages are processed using a multi-level, multiple language configurable engine:
The engine receives in input the message, analyze it and output one, or more resulting messages. The engine hosts a scriptable engine and scripts can be updated at run-time.
Standalone versus multi-server
The messages to, and from, modules are exchanged using the multi-server message bus and disptached to all Sinapse servers involved in the configuration. In a sandalone condition, oly one server is in execution and dos not need the full bus features, while in other conditions the multi-server bus is mandatory.
Standalone
Below two figures which describes the above sentence within a production plant.Starting, in a simple scenario, with a single Sinapse server:
Fault tolerance/Load balancing
It is possible to add High Availability adding more servers in the configuration:
The above servers communicates each other over a specific version of Data Distribution Manager.
Workflows
Below an explanation of what happens when multiple servers are involved in a workflows. All workflows in the figures can be spawned across balanced servers for High Availability.
Single server workflow
Starting from a single server, the following figure shows a simple workflow which link a PLC to a database:
Multiple servers workflow
Starting from the previous workflow, if each server executes its own workflow, they can be chained along multiple servers creating a multiple-server workflow:

Chelsea await for transfer ban verdict ahead of winter transfer market
by BeSoccerChelsea's appeal hearing for a FIFA sanction banning them from signing new players until February 2020 took place on Wednesday. The hearing's outcome will not be known well into December, a few days before the winter market begins.
Chelsea will have to wait until the verdict on their appeal is decided, without knowing whether or not they will be able to make any signings in the winter transfer market. FIFA found the London club guilty of 150 offences in the contracts of 71 under-age players.
Featured links
- BREAKING NEWS: Mourinho replaces Pochettino at Tottenham
- The latest football transfers news and rumours
- Wales, golf, Madrid... in that order
- Luis Enrique returns to Spain national team
Chelsea fought from day one to avoid the sanction, as did Real Madrid or Barcelona, but ended up having to abide by it, like Atletico Madrid.
The 'Blues' could not sign anyone in summer, and now have a remnant of more than 170 million to invest in signings. A blessing in desguise? If the transfer ban is indeed lifted, Chelsea would come into the winter transfer market with that amount to spend.

Data Browser
The Data Browser is a powerful
feature
of Abeille. Table data can be displayed on a row by row basis. You can
also customize how each column is displayed in the view.
|
Clears all columns in the view. |
|
Adds the current row to the table. |
|
Modifies the data in the table according to
the selected contraints |
|
Deletes the data in the table according to
the selected constraints |
|
Commits any previous updates, inserts, or
deletes. If you database does not support transactions, this command
has no effect. |
|
Rolls back any previous updates, inserts or
deletes. This operation has no effect if your database does not support
transactions. |
|
Queries the table using the selected
constraints. |
|
Displays the result set in a grid view. |
|
Moves to the first row in the result set. |
|
Moves to the previous row in the result
set. |
|
Moves to the next row in the result set. |
|
Moves to the last row in the result set. |
|
Pastes the columns to the associated
columns of the linked table (either foreign key or user defined link).
This button is only enabled if the form was launched from a linked
table. |
Constraints
You can select a constraint for
each column by clicking the constraint button to the right of the
column label. The constraint applies when you peform an update, delete,
or query.
To update or delete data in a
table you must first constrain a column. This sets the WHERE
clause in the UPDATE or DELETE statement. The Data Browser does
not currently support updateable result sets. So, you must set
the constraint to specify which rows are to be updated or
deleted.
The Data Browser supports commit
and rollback operations only if Auto
Commit is set to OFF. You can change this parameter in the
Options dialog on the main toolbar.
Data
Browsing - Linked Tables
Tables that have links from either
foreign keys or user defined links can be launched from the form of the
related table. Linked columns are displayed in red. When you click on
the column name, the form for the related table is launched. You can
create custom links in the Model View.
Configuration
Each column can be configured to
display the following types.
| Default |
Most of the time the default data type that
is returned by the JDBC driver is sufficient. Abeille will
automatically determine the type and display the data accordingly.
However, Abeille cannot automatically determine the contents of some
data. For example, with blob types there is no way to determine if the
data is an image, text, of something else. Abeille allows you to
manually specify the type for these situations. |
| Blob Image |
Displays the data as an image. The data
type must be a blob and contain a valid image type (gif, jpg, png) |
| Blob Text |
Displays the data as text in a multiline
editor. The data type must be a blob. |
| Blob Java Object |
Converts the blob data to a Java object
and displays the member variables of the object. The data must be a
serialized object. Furthermore, any classes required by the object must
be included in the classpath of Abeille. |
| Integer |
Displays the data as an integer. |
| Multiline Editor |
With this setting Abeille handles data as a
VARCHAR type. Additionally the data is displayed in a text field with
multiple lines. |
| Numeric |
Displays the data as a numeric type. |
| Varchar |
Displays the data as a text type. |

We propose an efficient framework, called Simple Swap (SimSwap), aiming for generalized and high fidelity face swapping.  We overcome the above defects in the following two ways. First, we present the ID Injection Module (IIM) which transfers the identity information of the source face into the target face at feature level. By using this module, we extend the architecture of an identityspecific face swapping algorithm to a framework for arbitrary face swapping. Second, we propose the Weak Feature Matching Loss which efficiently helps our framework to preserve the facial attributes in an implicit way. Extensive experiments on wild faces demonstrate that our SimSwap is able to achieve competitive identity performance while preserving attributes better than previous state-of-the-art methods. The code is already available on github: https://github.com/neuralchen/SimSwap.

This map presents the percent likelihood of a magnitude 5.5 or greater event in any 7 day period. These predictions were calculated from USGS data in the 30 year period between 1989 and 2019. Read below to learn more.
Authored by Chris Luedtke
Some seismologists claim earthquake prediction is an inherently impossible task. While respecting this perspective, we maintain a healthy optimism that technical advancements will make this critical problem tractable. In the development of our above model, we reviewed recent academic publications implementing new machine learning techniques with some success. We link to those articles and provide notes on GitHub. Below we present our process in developing our own baseline predictive model.
We begin our analysis with data made available by the USGS, which was the most accessible and complete catalog we found. The USGS is transparent that this catalog is not complete and should not be treated as such. Incomplete data are a universal challenge in earthquake modeling and in data science more broadly.
In this case, missing data can be categorized in two ways: 1) missing due to recency and 2) missing due to detective ability.
To assess this category of missing data, we consider magnitude 4 or greater earthquake events occurring in 2019 to date.
In Figure 1 we see a dramatic decrease in magnitude 4-5 events in the last month. We presume this does not represent actual earthquake activity, but rather suggests missing data.
The USGS catalog is constantly evolving as earthquake events are created or modified retroactively. This is demonstrated in Figure 2, which shows that the majority are updated more than 50 days after they occur.
Missing data due to recency make real-time predictive models difficult to deploy. If we were to update a predictive model on current events, our model would get the mistaken impression that fewer earthquakes had occured recently than have actually taken place. We could only base predictions on events which the USGS can reliably publish on a timely basis for each region on Earth.
We did not employ a rigorous solution to this category of missing data. We limited our analysis to events prior to 2019 in hopes that the majority of earthquake events had already been logged.
Earthquake sensors across the world are incapable of detecting even a majority of earthquake events. To demonstrate, we consider all magnitude 2 or greater earthquakes between 1989 and 2019.
The Gutenberg–Richter law provides a starting point to assess these missing data:
The Gutenberg–Richter law expresses the relationship between the magnitude and total number of earthquakes in any given region and time period of at least that magnitude.
log10N = a - bM
Seismologists use this law to identify the magnitude threshold, Mc, above which an earthquake catalog is deemed to be complete. We did the same for the USGS catalog by iteratively increasing Mc, computing a linear regression, and keeping the Mc for which the linear regression best fit our observed data. Figure 3 displays our results.
These missing data are handled by simply dropping all records below the identified Mc.
For each previously mentioned data quality concern, one must also consider regional characteristics. For example, we expect that the USGS both detects more earthquakes in the United States and also publishes those events more rapidly.
There are a number of approaches to this dimension of our analysis. Ideally, we would access a database containing precise coordinate locations and time periods of all seismic sensor stations on earth. Alternatively, we would find existing seismic region definitions based on observed seismic properties.
In our approach, we place 4,000 approximately equidistant nodes across the Earth and assess the data nearest to each node. See Figure 4.
Since we ultimately care about predicting large earthquakes, we first cluster only magnitude 5.5 or greater events to their nearest node. Limiting to these nodes greatly reduces computation cost, as we needed only 22% of our 4,000 node locations to capture all 5.5+ magnitude events. Figure 5 displays these nodes.
With the important nodes identified, we clustered all earthquake events to these filtered nodes. We applied a distance filter consistent with the maximum distance that any 5.5+ magnitude event occured from its nearest node (about 250 kilometers).
To get our baseline predictive model, for each cluster we counted the number of weeks in which a 5.5+ magnitude event occured. We then divided this by the total number of weeks in our dataset. This gives a percent likelihood of 5.5+ magnitude earthquake for each node. A cluster in which 15 weeks contained magnitude 5.5+ earthquakes corresponds to roughly a 1% chance of 5.5+ magnitude earthquake in any given week.
This baseline relies on the assumption that the USGS has accurately cataloged all 5.5+ magnitude earthquakes since 1989.
Finally, we re-added the nodes in which no 5.5+ magnitude earthquakes have occured and assigned 0% likelihood to those nodes. This gave us a complete grid of nodes over the Earth along with their earthquake likelihood values. We used these values to produce the final contour map presented above.

Recipe 20.17. Solving Metaclass ConflictsCredit: Michele Simionato, David Mertz, Phillip J. Eby, Alex Martelli, Anna Martelli Ravenscroft ProblemYou need to multiply inherit from several classes that may come from several metaclasses, so you need to generate automatically a custom metaclass to solve any possible metaclass conflicts. SolutionFirst of all, given a sequence of metaclasses, we want to filter out "redundant" onesthose that are already implied by others, being duplicates or superclasses. This job nicely factors into a general-purpose generator yielding the unique, nonredundant items of an iterable, and a function using inspect.getmro to make the set of all superclasses of the given classes (since superclasses are redundant): # support 2.3, too try: set except NameError: from sets import Set as set # support classic classes, to some extent import types def uniques(sequence, skipset): for item in sequence: if item not in skipset: yield item skipset.add(item) import inspect def remove_redundant(classes): redundant = set([types.ClassType]) # turn old-style classes to new for c in classes: redundant.update(inspect.getmro(c)[1:]) return tuple(uniques(classes, redundant)) Using the remove_redundant function, we can generate a metaclass that can resolve metatype conflicts (given a sequence of base classes, and other metaclasses to inject both before and after those implied by the base classes). It's important to avoid generating more than one metaclass to solve the same potential conflicts, so we also keep a "memoization" mapping: memoized_metaclasses_map = { } def _get_noconflict_metaclass(bases, left_metas, right_metas): # make tuple of needed metaclasses in specified order metas = left_metas + tuple(map(type, bases)) + right_metas needed_metas = remove_redundant(metas) # return existing confict-solving meta, if any try: return memoized_metaclasses_map[needed_metas] except KeyError: pass # compute, memoize and return needed conflict-solving meta if not needed_metas: # whee, a trivial case, happy us meta = type elif len(needed_metas) == 1: # another trivial case meta = needed_metas[0] else: # nontrivial, darn, gotta work... # ward against non-type root metatypes for m in needed_metas: if not issubclass(m, type): raise TypeError( 'Non-type root metatype %r' % m) metaname = '_' + ''.join([m._ _name_ _ for m in needed_metas]) meta = classmaker( )(metaname, needed_metas, { }) memoized_metaclasses_map[needed_metas] = meta return meta def classmaker(left_metas=( ), right_metas=( )): def make_class(name, bases, adict): metaclass = _get_noconflict_metaclass(bases, left_metas, right_metas) return metaclass(name, bases, adict) return make_class The internal _get_noconflict_metaclass function, which returns (and, if needed, builds) the conflict-resolution metaclass, and the public classmaker closure must be mutually recursive for a rather subtle reason. If _get_noconflict_metaclass just built the metaclass with the reasonably common idiom: meta = type(metaname, needed_metas, { }) it would work in all ordinary cases, but it might get into trouble when the metaclasses involved have custom metaclasses themselves! Just like "little fleas have lesser fleas," so, potentially, metaclasses can have meta-metaclasses, and so onfortunately not "ad infinitum," pace Augustus De Morgan, so the mutual recursion does eventually terminate. The recipe offers minimal support for old-style (i.e., classic) classes, with the simple expedient of initializing the set redundant to contain the metaclass of old-style classes, types.ClassType. In practice, this recipe imposes automatic conversion to new-style classes. Trying to offer more support than this for classic classes, which are after all a mere legacy feature, would be overkill, given the confused and confusing situation of metaclass use for old-style classes. In all of our code outside of this noconflict.py module, we will only use noconflict.classmaker, optionally passing it metaclasses we want to inject, left and right, to obtain a callable that we can then use just like a metaclass to build new class objects given names, bases, and dictionary, but with the assurance that metatype conflicts cannot occur. Phew. Now that was worth it, wasn't it?! DiscussionHere is the simplest case in which a metatype conflict can occur: multiply inheriting from two classes with independent metaclasses. In a pedagogically simplified toy-level example, that could be, say: >>> class Meta_A(type): pass ... >>> class Meta_B(type): pass ... >>> class A: _ _metaclass_ _ = Meta_A ... >>> class B: _ _metaclass_ _ = Meta_B ... >>> class C(A, B): pass Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases >>> A class normally inherits its metaclass from its bases, but when the bases have distinct metaclasses, the metatype constraint that Python expresses so tersely in this error message applies. So, we need to build a new metaclass, say Meta_C, which inherits from both Meta_A and Meta_B. For a demonstration of this need, see the book that's so aptly considered the bible of metaclasses: Ira R. Forman and Scott H. Danforth, Putting Metaclasses to Work: A New Dimension in Object-Oriented Programming (Addison-Wesley). Python does not do magic: it does not automatically create the required Meta_C. Rather, Python raises a TypeError to ensure that the programmer is aware of the problem. In simple cases, the programmer can solve the metatype conflict by hand, as follows: >>> class Meta_C(Meta_A, Meta_B): pass >>> class C(A, B): _ _metaclass_ _ = Meta_C In this case, everything works smoothly. The key point of this recipe is to show an automatic way to resolve metatype conflicts, rather than having to do it by hand every time. Having saved all the code from this recipe's Solution into noconflict.py somewhere along your Python sys.path, you can make class C with automatic conflict resolution, as follows: >>> import noconflict >>> class C(A, B): _ _metaclass_ _ = noconflict.classmaker( ) The call to the noconflict.classmaker closure returns a function that, when Python calls it, obtains the proper metaclass and uses it to build the class object. It cannot yet return the metaclass itself, but that's OKyou can assign anything you want to the _ _metaclass_ _ attribute of your class, as long as it's callable with the (name, bases, dict) arguments and nicely builds the class object. Once again, Python's signature-based polymorphism serves us well and unobtrusively. Automating the resolution of the metatype conflict has many pluses, even in simple cases. Thanks to the "memoizing" technique used in noconflict.py, the same conflict-resolving metaclass is used for any occurrence of a given sequence of conflicting metaclasses. Moreover, with this approach you may also explicitly inject other metaclasses, beyond those you get from your base classes, and again you can avoid conflicts. Consider: >>> class D(A): _ _metaclass_ _ = Meta_B Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases This metatype conflict is resolved just as easily as the former one: >>> class D(A): _ _metaclass_ _ = noconflict.classmaker((Meta_B,)) The code presented in this recipe's Solution takes pains to avoid any subclassing that is not strictly necessary, and it also uses mutual recursion to avoid any meta-level of meta-meta-type conflicts. You might never meet higher-order-meta conflicts anyway, but if you adopt the code presented in this recipe, you need not even worry about them. Thanks to David Mertz for help in polishing the original version of the code. This version has benefited immensely from discussions with Phillip J. Eby. Alex Martelli and Anna Martelli Ravenscroft did their best to make the recipe's code and discussion as explicit and understandable as they could. The functionality in this recipe is not absolutely complete: for example, it supports old-style classes only in a rather backhanded way, and it does not really cover such exotica as nontype metatype roots (such as Zope 2's old ExtensionClass). These limitations are there primarily to keep this recipe as understandable as possible. You may find a more complete implementation of metatype conflict resolution at Phillip J. Eby's PEAK site, http://peak.telecommunity.com/, in the peak.util.Meta module of the PEAK framework. See AlsoIra R. Forman and Scott H. Danforth, Putting Metaclasses to Work: A New Dimension in Object-Oriented Programming (Addison-Wesley); Michele Simionato's essay, "Method Resolution Order," http://www.python.org/2.3/mro.html. |

DEAD MAN WALKING A film review by Andrew Hicks Copyright 1996 Andrew Hicks / Fatboy Productions
***1/2 (out of four)
The phrase "wholesome R-rated movie" is usually the ultimate oxymoron in Hollywood, but this time it applies. DEAD MAN WALKING is an intense human drama about two polar opposites--a convicted murderer on death row (Sean Penn) and a nun (Susan Sarandon). For once, a Christian movie character is portrayed in a good light. The nun is a dedicated, caring woman who helps Penn with his eternal struggles despite ostracism and rejection by her peers and, most importantly, the parents of the two teens Penn killed.
Penn writes Sarandon a letter asking for her help and, having taken all those vows, she agrees. At first, he acts the part of a remorseless convict--refusing to admit he committed the crime, telling Sarandon she's lookin' mighty good about now (you'd have to be in prison for quite awhile to think that) and spouting off about the Aryan nation--but Sarandon's unconditional acceptance eventually gets to him and he changes his ways.
Much of the movie deals with the various court appeals Sarandon is involved in on Penn's behalf. Of course, none of the courts anywhere along the line will overturn the death sentence ruling and, as the days to Penn's lethal injection execution get closer, he has to accept the fact that death is inevitable. By the time execution day rolls around, the audience has collectively been sucked into the movie and truly cares for Penn's character. If anything, DEAD MAN WALKING's purpose is to show how even murderers aren't beyond redemption.
Like I said, there are strong Christian overtones in the movie, which was adapted by Tim Robbins (also the movie's director) from the autobiographical book written by the actual nun. You'd think ultra- liberal Robbins and his live-in lover Sarandon, who hijacked the Oscars a few years ago to preach against General Electric, would produce a more secularized, New Age-ized story, but thankfully, they didn't. No matter your religious persuasion, you'll agree leaving the story in a Christian context is more powerful than if Sarandon had sermonized Mother Earth or the life force to Penn in the face of death.
DEAD MAN WALKING has the distinction of being the movie that almost made me cry (and I was pushed over the brink once I learned the concession stand was out of Jujy-fruits). It really is an emotionally-charged film that successfully plays on all our human tendencies. It's an almost-perfect movie from the movie critic standpoint, the only flaw I noticed being Penn's absolutely awful coiffure and goatee, which mesmerized me during most of the movie, causing enough distractions that I missed the entire second act.
Now that I think about it, we could have all done without the agonizing vocal score that accompanied most of the dramatic scenes. It sounded to me a few bushmen wailing in anguish at some sort of throbbing pain, perhaps brought on by dental surgery. It caused pain for me too. Music this bad should be a form of capital punishment in itself.
The movie wouldn't have been watchable without the outstanding performances from Penn and Sarandon, who I'm sure will both be nominated along with Robbins at Oscar-time. I saw the movie about a month after its original release and the theater was still packed, which might have taken something away from my viewing experience, because when Penn's life was flashing before his eyes at the movie's climax, the person next to me's rank breath was flashing in front of my nose. Despite that factor, the goatee and the painful score, I still give this movie my wholehearted endorsement.
I personally don't see why DEAD MAN WALKING has been given the R rating. Granted, the f-word is uttered once, but the PG-13- rated THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT featured the word three times. And there's hardly any violence. Perhaps it earned the R rating for its inclusion of highly adult themes and overtones. Kids may not be able to handle the lengthy death scene at the end of the movie, but DEAD MAN WALKING has a strong message for all ages.

Cube OpenGL ES 2.0 example
This example has been written for OpenGL ES 2.0 but it works also on desktop OpenGL because this example is simple enough and for the most parts desktop OpenGL API is same. It compiles also without OpenGL support but then it just shows a label stating that OpenGL support is required.
The example consist of two classes:
MainWidget
extends QGLWidget and contains OpenGL ES 2.0 initialization and drawing and mouse and timer event handlingGeometryEngine
handles polygon geometries. Transfers polygon geometry to vertex buffer objects and draws geometries from vertex buffer objects.
We'll start by initializing OpenGL ES 2.0 in MainWidget

Since OpenGL ES 2.0 doesn't support fixed graphics pipeline anymore it has to be implemented by ourselves. This makes graphics pipeline very flexible but in the same time it becomes more difficult because user has to implement graphics pipeline to get even the simplest example running. It also makes graphics pipeline more efficient because user can decide what kind of pipeline is needed for the application.
First we have to implement vertex shader. It gets vertex data and model-view-projection matrix (MVP) as parameters. It transforms vertex position using MVP matrix to screen space and passes texture coordinate to fragment shader. Texture coordinate will be automatically interpolated on polygon faces.
void main() { // Calculate vertex position in screen space gl_Position = mvp_matrix * a_position; // Pass texture coordinate to fragment shader // Value will be automatically interpolated to fragments inside polygon faces v_texcoord = a_texcoord; }
After that we need to implement second part of the graphics pipeline - fragment shader. For this exercise we need to implement fragment shader that handles texturing. It gets interpolated texture coordinate as a parameter and looks up fragment color from the given texture.
void main() { // Set fragment color from texture gl_FragColor = texture2D(texture, v_texcoord); }
Using QGLShaderProgram
we can compile, link and bind shader code to graphics pipeline. This code uses Qt Resource files to access shader source code.
void MainWidget::initShaders() { // Compile vertex shader if (!program.addShaderFromSourceFile(QOpenGLShader::Vertex, ":/vshader.glsl")) close(); // Compile fragment shader if (!program.addShaderFromSourceFile(QOpenGLShader::Fragment, ":/fshader.glsl")) close(); // Link shader pipeline if (!program.link()) close(); // Bind shader pipeline for use if (!program.bind()) close(); }
The following code enables depth buffering and back face culling.
// Enable depth buffer glEnable(GL_DEPTH_TEST); // Enable back face culling glEnable(GL_CULL_FACE);
Loading Textures from Qt Resource Files
QGLWidget
interface implements methods for loading textures from QImage to GL texture memory. We still need to use OpenGL provided functions for specifying the GL texture unit and configuring texture filtering options.
void MainWidget::initTextures() { // Load cube.png image texture = new QOpenGLTexture(QImage(":/cube.png").mirrored()); // Set nearest filtering mode for texture minification texture->setMinificationFilter(QOpenGLTexture::Nearest); // Set bilinear filtering mode for texture magnification texture->setMagnificationFilter(QOpenGLTexture::Linear); // Wrap texture coordinates by repeating // f.ex. texture coordinate (1.1, 1.2) is same as (0.1, 0.2) texture->setWrapMode(QOpenGLTexture::Repeat); }
Cube Geometry
There are many ways to render polygons in OpenGL but the most efficient way is to use only triangle strip primitives and render vertices from graphics hardware memory. OpenGL has a mechanism to create buffer objects to this memory area and transfer vertex data to these buffers. In OpenGL terminology these are referred as Vertex Buffer Objects (VBO).
This is how cube faces break down to triangles. Vertices are ordered this way to get vertex ordering correct using triangle strips. OpenGL determines triangle front and back face based on vertex ordering. By default OpenGL uses counter-clockwise order for front faces. This information is used by back face culling which improves rendering performance by not rendering back faces of the triangles. This way graphics pipeline can omit rendering sides of the triangle that aren't facing towards screen.
Creating vertex buffer objects and transferring data to them is quite simple using QOpenGLBuffer. MainWidget makes sure the GeometryEngine instance is created and destroyed with the OpenGL context current. This way we can use OpenGL resources in the constructor and perform proper cleanup in the destructor.
GeometryEngine::GeometryEngine() : indexBuf(QOpenGLBuffer::IndexBuffer) { initializeOpenGLFunctions(); // Generate 2 VBOs arrayBuf.create(); indexBuf.create(); // Initializes cube geometry and transfers it to VBOs initCubeGeometry(); } GeometryEngine::~GeometryEngine() { arrayBuf.destroy(); indexBuf.destroy(); } // Transfer vertex data to VBO 0 arrayBuf.bind(); arrayBuf.allocate(vertices, 24 * sizeof(VertexData)); // Transfer index data to VBO 1 indexBuf.bind(); indexBuf.allocate(indices, 34 * sizeof(GLushort));
Drawing primitives from VBOs and telling programmable graphics pipeline how to locate vertex data requires few steps. First we need to bind VBOs to be used. After that we bind shader program attribute names and configure what kind of data it has in the bound VBO. Finally we'll draw triangle strip primitives using indices from the other VBO.
void GeometryEngine::drawCubeGeometry(QOpenGLShaderProgram *program) { // Tell OpenGL which VBOs to use arrayBuf.bind(); indexBuf.bind(); // Offset for position quintptr offset = 0; // Tell OpenGL programmable pipeline how to locate vertex position data int vertexLocation = program->attributeLocation("a_position"); program->enableAttributeArray(vertexLocation); program->setAttributeBuffer(vertexLocation, GL_FLOAT, offset, 3, sizeof(VertexData)); // Offset for texture coordinate offset += sizeof(QVector3D); // Tell OpenGL programmable pipeline how to locate vertex texture coordinate data int texcoordLocation = program->attributeLocation("a_texcoord"); program->enableAttributeArray(texcoordLocation); program->setAttributeBuffer(texcoordLocation, GL_FLOAT, offset, 2, sizeof(VertexData)); // Draw cube geometry using indices from VBO 1 glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 34, GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT, 0); }
Perspective Projection
Using QMatrix4x4
helper methods it's really easy to calculate perpective projection matrix. This matrix is used to project vertices to screen space.
void MainWidget::resizeGL(int w, int h) { // Calculate aspect ratio qreal aspect = qreal(w) / qreal(h ? h : 1); // Set near plane to 3.0, far plane to 7.0, field of view 45 degrees const qreal zNear = 3.0, zFar = 7.0, fov = 45.0; // Reset projection projection.setToIdentity(); // Set perspective projection projection.perspective(fov, aspect, zNear, zFar); }
Orientation of the 3D Object
Quaternions are handy way to represent orientation of the 3D object. Quaternions involve quite complex mathematics but fortunately all the necessary mathematics behind quaternions is implemented in QQuaternion
. That allows us to store cube orientation in quaternion and rotating cube around given axis is quite simple.
The following code calculates rotation axis and angular speed based on mouse events.
void MainWidget::mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *e) { // Save mouse press position mousePressPosition = QVector2D(e->localPos()); } void MainWidget::mouseReleaseEvent(QMouseEvent *e) { // Mouse release position - mouse press position QVector2D diff = QVector2D(e->localPos()) - mousePressPosition; // Rotation axis is perpendicular to the mouse position difference // vector QVector3D n = QVector3D(diff.y(), diff.x(), 0.0).normalized(); // Accelerate angular speed relative to the length of the mouse sweep qreal acc = diff.length() / 100.0; // Calculate new rotation axis as weighted sum rotationAxis = (rotationAxis * angularSpeed + n * acc).normalized(); // Increase angular speed angularSpeed += acc; }
QBasicTimer
is used to animate scene and update cube orientation. Rotations can be concatenated simply by multiplying quaternions.
void MainWidget::timerEvent(QTimerEvent *) { // Decrease angular speed (friction) angularSpeed *= 0.99; // Stop rotation when speed goes below threshold if (angularSpeed < 0.01) { angularSpeed = 0.0; } else { // Update rotation rotation = QQuaternion::fromAxisAndAngle(rotationAxis, angularSpeed) * rotation; // Request an update update(); } }
Model-view matrix is calculated using the quaternion and by moving world by Z axis. This matrix is multiplied with the projection matrix to get MVP matrix for shader program.
// Calculate model view transformation QMatrix4x4 matrix; matrix.translate(0.0, 0.0, -5.0); matrix.rotate(rotation); // Set modelview-projection matrix program.setUniformValue("mvp_matrix", projection * matrix);

On The Waterfront (1954)
Grade: 82
"On The Waterfront" is a classic film that nearly measures up to its reputation. While the characters are too neatly divided into good and evil, and the drama is sometimes overdone, there's never a dull moment, and the cast and cinematography is excellent.
Marlon Brando stars as a dense washed-up boxer who works on the waterfront as a flunkie for corrupt union boss Lee J. Cobb. Brando's older brother, Rod Steiger, is Cobb's attorney. Cobb has a policy of murdering workers who inform. Brando unwittingly assists in a union-ordered murder, and gets a subpoena to testify against Cobb. Aggressive priest Karl Malden and goody two-shoe new girlfriend Eva Marie Saint want him to testify. Cobb tells Steiger that Brando had better not, or else.
"On The Waterfront" is most famous for Brando's performance, especially the scene where he tells Steiger that "I coulda been a contender, I coulda been somebody." Brando is fine, but almost anyone could have played the palooka. Malden is a bit hammy, but his energy is still welcome. Cobb is excellent as the menacing union boss.
Academy Awards and nominations were showered on the cast and crew of "On The Waterfront". The film won Best Picture, Best Writing, Best Actor (Brando), Best Director (Elia Kazan), Best Cinematography and Best Art Direction (sets). Eva Marie Saint won Best Supporting Actress, while Malden, Cobb and Steiger had to settle for Best Supporting Actor nominations.
It was Marie Saint's first feature film, although she was already a veteran television performer. She is proof that a great production contributes more to receiving an Oscar than one's performance.
Kazan and Malden must have worked well together, since Malden had a starring role in four of Kazan's films.

Hi there! It's hard to believe it's almost the end of October, class is just moving right along.
During week 6 of Skilled KC, we worked together on a group project (teams of 3). Each person on the team was given a specific role, Project Manager, Senior Developer, and UI/Ux Designer with specific responsibilities. This was the first time we have collaborated and used Github together. My role was the Senior Developer and I definitely learned about creating the correct file strucutre (I originally put my files in the wrong place and had to restructure everything--yikes!) and how to merge in Pull Requests. My team created a website for a company called, Pizza Planet (from Toy Story). It was fun working together and talking about our ideas. Each team was pretty much in charge of how they were going to work together, what time they would meet/check in with each other, setting deadlines, updating progress on our Kanban board, and working together to push out our code. I think the biggest things I've learned from this group experience are how to work together as a team, communicating (it's better to overcommunicate!), and making sure I'm asking the right questions. I'm definitely looking forward to doing more group projects and working on those super important teamwork skills.
Last week, week 7 of Skilled KC, we started learning JavaScript. YAY! I was so pumped to be starting this unit! This week, week 8 of class, we are still working on JS. We just finished our first lab (a temperature converter that uses JS). Tomorrow we are starting our next lab, Fizzbuzz. I'm excited/nervous--I can definitely feel the pace of the class has picked up and I want to make sure I'm keeping up. With that being said, I'm off to code some more--I can't think of a better way to spend a snowy October evening. :)
October 9, 2020
Today wrapped up week 5 of classes! How is that even possible?! Time has serisouly flown by and I've already learned so much. I am so thankful to the Kauffman Foundation for providing everyone in our program free tuition to Skilled KC. This is such an amazing, life changing opportunity and I have to keep pinching myself to make sure I'm not dreaming. The staff and instructors at Skilled KC have been amazing and defintely have the students' best interests at heart. The instructors are top notch indsutry experts who are patient, always available for questions, and who truly desire success for all of the students in the program. The instructors truly care and will go to great lengths to help all of us become great developers. I feel like there are just not enough words to say to how thankful I am for this program. So, thanks Skilled KC!
These past 5 weeks have been a whirlwind of information. This is a brief overview of what we learned, I'm sure I probably missed something. We started the course with a high level view of everything we will learn. We learned about how the internet works, the software development life cycle (SDLC), the Agile method, Kanban boards, different roles in the technology field, different programming langauges, frameworks, and libraries, operators, data types, branching and looping, data structures, and git.
After this intense, high level overview, we dove right into setting up our developer environment by downloading software via the terminal. We then started learning about HTML and CSS. We also learned about the web design process as well as UI/UX design. We implemented Trello boards to keep track of our to do lists (we will use them as Kanban boards when we work on our teams). We then created an About Me page using just HTML and CSS to look exactly like a document we were given.
Next up, we learned about Bootstrap and how to implement it into our code to allow for responsive design. We discussed how to use Github and created repos. We then were given an assignment to create our portfolio website. We were asked to create a requirements document with user personas and user stories, sitemaps, wireframes, analyze risks, and come up with features for future iterations.
I love how Bootstrap templates can allow your page to be responsive and beautiful right out of the gate. I also like that you can still change the template and customize it to reflect your personality. I am not a graphic designer, so a Bootstrap template is the perfect option for me right now as I'm getting my feet wet in the coding world.
Alight, well that pretty much sums up these last 5 weeks. Like I said, I've learned so much and I'm just so excited to continue on this journey. I have so much to learn and I'm excited to keep going!
October 8, 2020
Hi! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my blog. I'm writing this blog to document my learning journey as I progress through Skilled KC's full-stack software developer program. I want to use this blog to not only reflect on what I am learning about in class, but also to be able to see how far I have come once I am finished with the program.
This post is going to be a little unusual and much longer than normal because I want to catch you up on my learning journey so far. So, grab some coffee and settle in--I'll try to not be too wordy, but no promises. :)
I would say my coding journey offically began the summer of 2013.  I grew up dancing and teaching dance and thoroughly missed it. My Mom and I starting chatting about this one day and realized that we both wanted to teach dance again. We decided to go into business together as partners, a mother-daughter team.
Times had changed since my Mom had the dance studio business before. I knew right away that we needed a website to promote our new business. I did a little googling and found out that to make a website I would just need to slap together some HTML and CSS. Easy, right? I'm a go-getter and decided that to save money, I would build our website from scratch myself. So, I ordered a HTML and CSS book off of Amazon and created a beautiful, responsive website in an hour.
Ha! I wish! Actually, the real story is I started reading the books and realized I was way in over my head. We needed to get our website done as soon as possible and I knew that I was not the girl for the job. Thankfully, my cousin is a web developer and he graciously created our website for us in record timing. So, we were all set.
I was amazed at my cousin's website creation. He was able to create a beautiful, fully responsive website in just a few days. I felt like it was magic. Ever since then I have been smitten with code.
Ever since my cousin created our website for us, I have been drawn to code. However, I've mostly just dabbled and played around. I worked through some exercises on Free Code Camp and bought some different classes online that promised to teach me to code. However, I found it so hard to fit coding into my already busy schedule and had trouble keeping up my coding habit.
In 2019, after dabbling with code for so long, I decided that I needed to stop talking about how much I wanted to be in tech and to just go after it. I quit my job working at a local school and started looking for a job at a tech company. I was offered a position at an amazing tech company here in Kansas City as a Technical Support Operations Specialist. Everything about this company was amazing--the people, the customers, everything. The job itself also taught me a lot. I had no tech experience prior to this role, so everything was new. My role was on the Customer Success (CS) team, however my main responsibility was building and updating apps to the Apple and Google Play stores. I learned about creating certificates, how to troubleshoot the build server, working with customers through Zendesk, how to create bug tickets in Jira, and how to document my whole process in Confluence. So many new tools and things to learn! It was so exciting! (I'm a nerd and absolutely LOVE to learn!)
In our office I was able to hear our engineering team during their daily stand ups. I was always listening with one ear, trying to see if I could learn anything new. I was constantly amazed by our engineering team. They made ideas come to life, squashed bugs, and were just all around wonderful, smart people. I wanted to be one of them.
I knew I wanted to be a developer, the question was how? I had tried coding after work and usually couldn't muster the energy to cook, work out and code. I tried getting up earlier and coding then, however it usually just made me super tired for the rest of the day. I wasn't sure how I was going to make my dream of becoming a developer a reality.
I started looking into coding bootcamps. This seemed like the way to go for me. I wanted to go all in and prioritize coding in my life. I wanted to be in a class setting where I could have an experienced instructor who could help with any questions. However, most of these bootcamps are so expensive. My husband and I are huge fans of Dave Ramsey and I was not willing to go into debt or sign an ISA in order to attend a bootcamp.
It was during my research into bootcamps that I stumbled upon Skilled KC's program. It sounded too good to be true! How could a program like this be free? I requested more information, not thinking that this would end up being a legitamate course. However, after speaking with Skilled KC I realized that this course was indeed free. We would even receive MacBook Pros, career help, all along with the free instruction that would allow me to become a developer. I knew that this was the right program for me!
I loved the company and the people I worked with at my job, however Skilled KC's software developer program was an opportunity I just could not pass up. I prayed about it, spoke with my husband and family, and made the decision to put my notice in at my current job and go all in.
So far, I've learned so much and couldn't be happier with my decision. I'm so excited to see where this program leads me to down the road. Great things are happening and it's all thanks to Skilled KC. (And no, they did not pay or ask me to say that!)

class DvsPageData
A storage container class that stores collections and fields for a given page.
These fields and collections are addeded to a singleton registered in Devise\Pages\PagesServiceProvider.php called 'dvsPageData'. ALl blade views that contain fields and/or collections will use methods like addCollection and addField respectively to add in the data. Eventually all this data is spit out as JSON for the javascript library in devise to take over from there.

LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS (Gramercy) Starring: Nick Moran, Jason Flemyng, Jason Statham, Dexter Fletcher, Vinnie Jones, Frank Harper, P. H. Moriarty, Lenny McLean. Screenplay: Guy Ritchie. Producer: Matthew Vaughn. Director: Guy Ritchie. MPAA Rating: R (violence, profanity, brief nudity, drug use) Running Time: 108 minutes. Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
It's tough to knock a film as undeniably invigorating as LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS without coming off as an impossible-to-please crank. Yes, it's generally funny, clever and unpredictable; true, it's plotted with a precision that should make aspiring screenwriters take notes; indeed, it has visual style to spare. Guy Ritchie's caper/comedy/thriller has a savage entertainment value that's awfully hard to find anymore. It's also a film without an ounce of humanity, a narrative machine where the fun feels hollow because the characters come with names and virtually nothing more.
That's a problem that really only nags in hindsight, since you'll spend all your viewing time just trying to keep up. The tale begins with four London pals -- Eddy (Nick Moran), Tom (Jason Flemyng), Bacon (Jason Statham) and Soap (Dexter Fletcher) -- who pool their small-time criminal resources to come up with 100,000 pounds to get cardsharp Eddy into a high stakes game. Unfortunately, Eddy is victimized by some dirty dealing, and ends up half a million pounds in debt to a sordid character named "Hatchet" Harry Lonsdale (P. H. Moriarty). Faced with only seven days to avoid an unpleasant fate at the hands of Harry's henchman Barry the Baptist (Lenny McLean), the quartet comes up with a desperate plan to get the necessary money: ripping off a van full of cash and marijuana from a gang of thugs who just ripped it off from someone else.
Believe it or not, that's the simple part of the multi-layered plotting in LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS. Also tied into the main story: the theft of two antique guns from an estate auction; a trio of over-their-heads pot farmers; Jheri-Curled, sports fanatic crime boss Rory (Vas Blackwood); and an enforcer-for-hire named Big Chris (Vinnie Jones) who has a soft spot for his young son. There are plenty of occasions during the first half of the film when it feels over-populated, over-plotted and over-directed, sending situations, vertiginous camera angles and new faces at the audience in overwhelming waves. Only Ritchie's appealing wit might keep you from throwing up your hands and throwing in the towel.
Fortunately, the second and third acts offer so much propulsive action that forgiveness for the early excesses becomes fairly easy. Ritchie manages to pull all these threads together quite deftly, creating a series of confrontations which continuously whip up new permutations of violence, dark humor and surprise. There are missteps here as well -- including a depiction of the protagonists' celebrating an apparent victory which resembles a drinking binge by the Monkees -- but the caper itself is engrossing enough to help hide them. LOCK, STOCK AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS blindsides you with its sheer momentum, the pieces falling into place so rapidly that you can't help but admire Ritchie's audacity.
It's considerably harder to admire his thoroughgoing lack of interest in his characters except as gun-toting props. Every bit of color in the film's performances comes from the use of physical types -- the bald, imposing Barry; the short, high-strung Rory; strapping but soft-spoken Big Chris. Quentin Tarantino often is credited with inspiring a slew of nihilistic comic-crime imitators, but Tarantino's way with actors and redemption-hungry characters has always given him away as a closet humanist, and has always tempered his infamous violent streak. Guy Ritchie has a gift for adrenaline, to be sure, but he sends that adrenaline through a body that has no heart. You can't knock a director in 1999 who at least makes you want to watch. You just wish this rowdy bit of entertainment made you want to care about something, anything, besides how many bodies will pile up before the credits roll.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 barrel roles: 7.

persian solid
The Persian cat is a long-haired breed of cat characterized by its round face and short muzzle. It is also known as the "Persian Longhair" in the English-speaking countries. The first documented ancestors of the Persian were imported into Italy from Persia around 1620. Recognized by the cat fancy since the late 19th century, it was developed first by the English, and then mainly by American breeders after the Second World War. Some cat fancier organizations' breed standards subsume the Himalayan and Exotic Shorthair as variants of this breed, while others treat them as separate breeds.
History and Origins
The Persian is an old breed. To those who love this elegant cat, it will come as no surprise that the longhaired beauty originated in the cradle of civilization: Mesopotamia, which was later known as Persia and is now modern-day Iran. The breed’s long hair was probably the result of a natural mutation, and its striking appearance attracted the attention of 17th-century Italian nobleman and world traveler Pietro Della Valle, who is credited with bringing the first longhaired cats to Europe in 1626.
Lifespan
13.5 year
Colors
The Persian has a distinctive appearance: a large, round head; large, round eyes; a short nose; full cheeks; and small ears with rounded tips. The head is supported by a short, thick neck and a deceptively sturdy, muscular body—a type known as “cobby.”
Health
Both pedigreed cats and mixed-breed cats have varying incidences of health problems that may be genetic in nature. Although they are beautiful and sweet, Persians are prone to a number of potential health problems, most commonly related to their facial structure:
-
Breathing difficulty or noisy breathing caused by constricted nostrils
-
Dental malocclusions, meaning the teeth don’t mesh well together
-
Excessive tearing

“Whether we like it or not, it is a fact that economics cannot remain an esoteric branch of knowledge accessible only to small groups of scholars and specialists. Economics deals with society’s fundamental problems; it concerns everyone and belongs to all. It is the main and proper study of every citizen.”1
— Ludwig von Mises
“The task of the economist is not to plan utopias, but to criticize reality”
— Joan Robinson
“The first lesson of economics is scarcity: There is never enough of anything to satisfy all those who want it. The first lesson of politics is to disregard the first lesson of economics.”2
— Thomas Sowell
“The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority, who hear voices in the air, are distilling their frenzy from some academic scribbler of a few years back. I am sure that the power of vested interests is vastly exaggerated compared with the gradual encroachment of ideas.”3
— John Maynard Keynes
“There are no solutions, there are only tradeoffs.”4
— Thomas Sowell

Klopp is best coach in the world, says Sadio Mane
by EditorSadio Mane has described Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp as the best manager in the world.
Liverpool is top of the Premier League and are eight points ahead of second-place Leicester City.
And Mane, who is Liverpool’s top scorer so far in the league this season with seven goals, has hailed Klopp’s influence.
‘There are a lot of good managers in Europe but what I can say is that our manager always has the right words and the right things to manage his team, especially knowing how to deal with his team.
I would always trust his influence on the team. He is a winner and I would say he is the best in the world.’
Liverpool resume domestic action with a tricky trip to Selhurst Park to play Crystal Palace tomorrow.
