It’s been a thrilling #WBBL07 so far - the competition seems well-balanced, with every team boasting world-class athletes alongside the young guns who are the next wave of Australian talent coming through.
Coming off the back of the hotly contested Australia vs. India series, I have been glued to the TV and thought I might as well turn my attention to another screen instead - my computer screen - and take a closer look at some key performances so far this season.
I downloaded ball-by-ball data and match metadata from Cricsheet for the Women’s Big Bash League (specifically using the CSV “Ashwin” format), focusing on games played so far in season 7 of the Women’s Big Bash League (27 matches played between Oct 14 and Nov 3 2021).

One tactical consideration that makes the shorter formats so fascinating is how to go about scoring runs after you’ve lost a wicket.
With only 120 regulation balls bowled in a 20-over match:
One way we can look at this is to examine patterns in team strike rate (runs scored for balls faced) across the course of an innings.

# Exclude matches that ended with a Super Over
# and abandoned matches
filter(!outcome_batting_team %in% c("tie", "no result")) %>%

mutate(
rolling_strike_rate = round(
runs_cumulative / balls_cumulative * 100, 1),
wicket_ball_num = case_when(
!is.na(wicket_type) ~ balls_cumulative,
TRUE ~ NA_real_),
wicket_strike_rate = case_when(
!is.na(wicket_type) ~ rolling_strike_rate,
TRUE ~ NA_real_),

arrange(match_id, innings, balls_cumulative) %>%
mutate(
match_details = factor(

Let’s take a look at the Melbourne Renegades, who currently sit at the top of the standings (as of Nov 6 2021):

My wife really wanted this Phil and Ted’s Explorer stroller. We checked out Babies R Us, but as expected, the customer service was poor. No disrespect to all those hard-working retail people - I was one of them once - but this lady did not know anything about the product. They were charging about $540 for it. Yeah, I know, you could buy a second-hand car for that price. But, apparently, and I say apparently because the amount of research I’ve done palls in comparison with my wife’s diligent on-line sleuthing, this stroller is a sound investment. It will accommodate a baby all the way from newborn to about five years. You can also attach a car seat to it, or add an attachment to carry two kids.
Anyway, we ended up ordering this puppy from Amazon.com for $479 and they threw in the Doubles Kit for free (usually retails for $90). We also ordered an outdoor patio table and shipped them both to Point Roberts in the States for pick-up at TSB shipping. I’m hoping the duty won’t be too steep or maybe that wasn’t such a good deal after all. We’ll see. At least baby will have his/her pimped-out ride when he/she arrives.

For example, let's say you are trying to run a test for your database application, and you need to test it with three databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle. Your build script is designed so that you can test with a particular database by doing ant -Ddatabase=mysql.
This is the concept of an axis. You can have a variable called "database", which takes three values. When you configure it, Jenkins will run 3 builds, each with different values assigned to the "database" variable to exhaustively cover the configuration matrix.
Variables specified here are made available to the build as environment variables. In addition, for Ant and Maven, variables are also exposed as properties, as if -DvariableName=value are specified on the command line.
When multiple axes are specified, all of the possible combinations of axes are built exhaustively. Multiple values in labels and JDKs are treated in the same way. So if you specify jdk=[JDK5,JDK6], database=[mysql,postgresql,oracle], container=[jetty,tomcat], then each build will consists of 2x3x2=12 different sub-builds.


Dan Taro has found his voice on Spring Drips. This is the first full-length release from the Denver-based artist. The album shows the tenacity and focus of Taro’s musical career.
Spring Drips started in the summer of 2014 when Taro decided to create a band to bridge the gap between cold electronic sounds and human warmth. Over the course of that year, Taro spent each morning creating the foundation for the album. Through experimentation, songs began to take shape around bass lines, rhythms, or the timbres of different instruments.
Over sessions with Nate Ball, the resident drummer of the project, the two worked tirelessly recording in three different studios over the course of the next three and a half years. Other long-time friends made appearances in various songs to add another layer to the album.
All this culminated in the massive, sprawling, and complex work that is Spring Drips.

Spring Drips Album Release Show
At Mutiny Informational Cafe
Grotto released his debut album, Spring Drips last Saturday at the Mutiny Informational Cafe in Denver. The lineup included incredible local talent including Night Grinder and Restivo. The crowd was immersed in an audio visual experience in the back of the bookstore-turned-venue. Yonbre, a local musician and visual artist projected stark imagery over Grotto as he performed variations and live remixes of tracks off of Spring Drips.

The yurt cleanliness and general order runs on the honor system. The yurt was cleaned by the previous guests before you and will be found by the next guests after you. You will be introduced to them via email or in person so you can meet and become friends. This is also where you can direct your formal written complaints if you have any.
The yurt is a 1/4 mile from the main house. You can walk there from a path by the main house but you can also drive through the 3rd gate to get there. Its an old ranch road but guests have successfully navigated many compact cars up there with ease; however it is recommended to have something a bit beefier.

Hack 50 Hold Email for Later Delivery
Control when sendmail uses an intermittent Internet connection. The default sendmail configuration assumes that you have a constant network connection. What if you're on a dial-up system and want to be able to work on emails without causing your modem to dial up immediately? In this scenario, you want to queue your sent messages to send later, the next time you go online. 5.10.1 Configuring sendmail QueueingFortunately, sendmail has a "hold expensive" function designed for this purpose. To activate it, add the following lines to the /etc/mail/<hostname>.mc file: define(`confCON_EXPENSIVE', `True')dnl MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`RELAY', `+e')dnl MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`SMTP', `+e')dnl MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`ESMTP', `+e')dnl MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS(`SMTP8', `+e')dnl define(`confTO_QUEUEWARN', `12h')dnl The first line enables the feature. The next four lines add the letter e to the flags for each named mailer, to indicate that it is "expensive" and that email should first be queued rather than immediately delivered. The last line just extends the length of time the system will wait before it warns you that your message hasn't been delivered yet (the default is four hours). Now just build the configuration file, install it, and restart sendmail as usual: # cd /etc/mail # make # make install # make restart-mta The four mailers listed (RELAY, SMTP, ESMTP, and SMTP8) will handle the bulk of all transmissions over the network. The configuration of both local and remote mail systems will determine which one to use. However, if you send out all of your mail via your provider's smart host, the RELAY mailer is the best choice. So far so good. However, you still need to make some more changes to the way sendmail runs. Queued messages will sit in the mail queue (/var/spool/mqueue) until the next sendmail queue run. These occur every 30 minutes when using the default sendmail command-line flags. The following settings in /etc/rc.conf will suppress that default: sendmail_enable="NO" sendmail_submit_flags="-L sm-mta -bd -ODaemonPortOptions=Addr=localhost" Note the deletion of -q30m from the default value of sendmail_submit_flags. Those lines assume that you don't want a sendmail process listening on port 25 on your network interface for incoming emails, which can be problematic on a transient link, such as dial-up. (See [Hack #49] for an alternate approach.) 5.10.2 Configuring PPPHaving effectively prevented the system from ever flushing the mail queue, you'll now need to add a mechanism for sending all queued email when the PPP link activates. If you're running the user land ppp daemon, create /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup with these contents: papchap: !bg /usr/sbin/sendmail -q /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup should be owned by the root user and the wheel group, and be writable only by root, although it can be readable by all. Alternatively, add the line /usr/sbin/sendmail -q to an existing auth-up file. (pppd uses the shell script /etc/ppp/auth-up to run commands after the link has come up and the systems have authenticated successfully.)
5.10.3 Dealing with DNSThere is a huge gotcha in this whole discussion. sendmail makes extensive use of the DNS while it processes email. That DNS traffic will usually trigger on-demand dialing, and bringing up the PPP link—triggering an immediate queue flush—defeats the whole purpose of what you've done so far. There are several things you can do to ameliorate this problem:
This last option tells sendmail not to look up MX records, which are available only from DNS; instead, it will only look up IP numbers. For example, specify your ISP's SMTP server's hostname in this line of /etc/mail/<hostname>.mc: define(`SMART_HOST', `[smtp.example.com]')dnl Then, rebuild the configuration file as before. Note that these hacks will only mitigate the DNS problem. Unfortunately, it is all but impossible to eliminate inconvenient DNS lookups. 5.10.4 See Also |

Obviously lots of different people are measuring lots of different 'things' with official and unofficial OEM modules, but there doesn't appear to be a big list/directory somewhere where all these 'things' are listed.
We've all done the 'usual', electricity usage and house temperature, some have gone further to monitor the output of their solar PV systems and heat pumps. I monitor the power going to my electric car charger (seemed like a good idea & it's next to the grid meter and the PV meter).
Monitoring the hallway and landing temperature is pretty standard, then it's interesting to have the outside temperature too.
I also monitor the temperature inside my rain water harvesting tank - it freezes during very cold weather and destroys the pump.
Last week I was wondering what others were monitoring and today I came across a chap who has temperature sensors in the flow/return pipes of his gas boiler to monitor efficiency - so I've add that to the list.
But I was wonder what else I've missed that others are doing?
(Just list them - we can start separate threads to discuss them :)
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?

PS if recall correctly I think it's Martin Harizanov who logs doorbell events and his childrens TV watching ! Recently another user was wanting to log the number of washing machine and dryer uses following an increase due to a new addition to his family.
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?
Heatpumps too (http://openenergymonitor.blogspot.co.uk/2015/12/heat-pump-monitoring.html). I also know of a company that has used the system to measure the power consumption on-board train carriages.
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?
Caravan battery voltage, temperature and charge/discharge current
Brightness (day/night)
Central heating boiler, flow and return temperatures, heating on/off, burner and pump status
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?
Drip irrigation system pressure
Pressure drop across irrigation filter (to detect when the filter is plugged)
Liquid level in sump (to sound alarm if sump pump fails)
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?
In addition to the usual house monitoring, I have a (very) remote weather station running WeeWx on a Pi, sending data to Wunderground. I use the Emoncms extension to Weewx just to keep an eye on the weather station's battery status, which Wunderground doesn't log.
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?
New to the site- thank you for having me!
Mine probably seems on the face of it fairly conventional- a temp. monitor on my solar-heated water tank. The only difference from the norm being that, in order to see the temp. from a different room, I "hacked" a small wireless weatherstation (3€ from a bootsale!) by removing the sensor from the transmitter, extending it a couple of feet & popping it behind the insulation near the top of the tank. Somewhat less hi-tech than the Pi versions I see here, but 2 AAA batteries last about 2 - 3 years.:)
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?
Wemo insight and smart maginon sp1 smart wall plugs (those are wifi on / off switches but can monitor energy use of appliances attached to it).
My phones battery level using combination of tasker + mqtt
my wireless sensor tags temprature moisture and battery level using a kumoapp that i wrote that sends the sensor data to emoncms and mqtt for home assistant. Kumoapps are little javascript apps that run on a cloud server of the wireless sensor tags (http://www.wirelesstag.net/)
Re: List of 'things' that have been measured with Open Energy Monitor?
http://emoncms.org/Edegem/screedtemp
Here you can see me monitoring the central heating flow and return of the gas combo boiler (a similar one to the UK version, Vaillant ecoTEC plus 835)
I'm also monitoring temperature (with DS18B20 sensors) in my screed floor (underfloor heating).

Freezer temperature monitoring too


WebSockets have been aiding real time communication on the web for a few years now and the technology is really starting to mature. With easy to use libraries like socket.io that fallback to HTTP polling for old browsers, and ultra performant implementations like uWebSockets which focus on low user space memory, developers are spoilt for choice.
On uWebSockets, one million connections require just ~111mb of user space memory (104 bytes per WebSocket!)
Creating real time web applications has never been easier, with tiny chat applications only requiring ~25 total lines of code on the front- and back-end of a Node.js setup. Check out the barebone back-end of socket.io's introductory chat application:
Multiplayer games like agar.io rely on this technology to broadcast the location of millions of squishy blobs each and every day. Instead of raw HTTP requests with extra data such as cookies and other headers, and potentially a client authentication per each request, the duplex connection is headerless and WebSockets only authenticates during the handshake. It's even efficient enough to control quadcopters.


Solar Physics
The Sun constitutes a physics laboratory with complex interactions between its electrically conducting plasma and a strong magnetic field, in conditions that cannot be reproduced in our laboratories.
A new paradigm has been emerging that involves a connected view of the solar atmosphere linked by the magnetic field from the solar interior to the outer corona, as well as detailed local helioseismology in sunspots, loops and other magnetic features. The solar physics group of the IAC holds a leadership position in the investigation of the Sun in the framework of this global paradigm as exemplified by its role in major projects like the European Solar Telescope, the Solar Orbiter mission of ESA or the NASA-JAXA-IAC Chromospheric Ly-alpha Spectropolarimeter and the leadership of the European Network SOLARNET.
The group's expertise is at the forefront of the international research, striving in the coming years to understand how the magnetic fields emerge from the solar interior through the surface and rise to the upper atmosphere leaving in the meantime its imprint of complex interaction and releasing part of its energy to the medium. The IAC's expertise in the development of polarimetric instrumentation [TIP & LPSP ; Sunrise ; EST ; Solar Orbiter], in the development and application of diagnostic techniques for magnetized plasmas and in 3D numerical radiation-MHD modelling has established the team as one of the most competitive and scientifically prepared in the world.
Goals:
- To perform realistic 3D modelling of the dynamics and radiative processes in the solar atmosphere using massively parallel computers.
- Develop new diagnostic methods based on radiative transfer of polarized light.
- Carry out ground-breaking observations from new ground and space facilities with unprecedented spatial resolution, time cadence and polarimetric sensitivity.
- Establish a model of Earth’s globally-averaged radiation balance.
- Observational and theoretical studies of the solar photosphere and sunspots.

- The best tip for next week is to perhaps enjoy the silence, as Depeche Mode put it in 1990, given the quiet-looking calendar.
- But there's still some noise to be heard from the trade negotiations.
- And things get busier towards the end of the week as we look to see if the Eurozone PMIs can trigger a turnaround in Europe's battered economic outlook.

EUR: PMIs unlikely to turn the tide for the euro
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD 1.1053 | Neutral | 1.0990-1.1110 | 1.1000 |
- The contradicting news flow on trade negotiations continues to generate market noise but it can neither trigger a major correction in the supported risk environment nor fuel a decisive rally in pro-cyclical assets. The dollar did lose some momentum after a two-week run, but is still lacking a tangible negative catalyst, so it may be able to retain most of its recent strength in the coming days. Looking at the US calendar, the FOMC minutes (from the October 30 meeting) will likely attract most attention. However, the substantial flow of Fedspeak in the past week (e.g. Powell’s testimony) may have diminished the surprise potential of the minutes, which should anyway confirm the well-established notion that the Fed will pause at least till the end of the year – and probably well into 2020.
- On the euro side, the focus will be on preliminary PMIs out on Friday. In line with our economists’ view, the consensus is positioned for a marginal rebound in the battered manufacturing gauge, possibly supported by a mitigated downside risk stemming from trade wars. However, we have seen how minor improvements in Eurozone data are still unable to drive sustained upsides in EUR/USD, which may, therefore, go back to testing the 1.10 support in the week. A number of speeches by ECB officials (including one by President Lagarde on Friday) complete the calendar, although the Bank’s recent cautious approach when it comes to policy-related statements and Lagarde’s focus on team-building activities suggest little room for fresh policy initiatives and FX market impact.
JPY: JGB yields under control
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| USD/JPY 108.70 | Neutral | 108.10-109.50 | 108.00 |
- After some recent sharp dislocation, the Japanese Government Bond market looks a little more under control – helped by a rally in US Treasuries. The BoJ probably doesn’t mind the JGB sell-off too much, given its preference to steepen the yield curve and help the local banking system. Barring a surprise break-down in US-China trade negotiations, we see the coming week as a reasonably benign one – meaning that USD/JPY should be range-bound to slightly higher. True the US data has been softening a little, but the industrial slow-down is well-priced and, so far, the US consumer (like consumers elsewhere in the world) is holding up quite well.
- Locally Japan sees October trade data and also the national CPI figure for October. The latter is rarely a market mover and the core rate, expected at 0.4% YoY, is still miles away from the BoJ’s target. Equally, the market doesn’t really believe the BoJ’s threats to take rates more negative – in fact, the BoJ has led the way in the tiering of deposits to protect the banking system from negative rates. In all, we expect a range-bound USD/JPY and the JPY to maintain funding currency status.
GBP: Conservative win prospects appear to be strengthening
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| GBP/USD 1.2913 | Mildly Bullish | 1.2800-1.3040 | 1.3300 |
- The slew of data in the UK this week failed to drive any move in the sterling as markets continue to focus solely on the upcoming general election. In the past few days, the Brexit Party pledged not to contest Conservative Party seats while presenting a candidate in all Labour-held seats. When adding a rising lead of Boris Johnson’s Conservatives in latest opinion polls, investors have been able to cement their expectations around a (market-friendly) Tory majority win. We have recently outlined different election scenarios in “What the UK election means for Brexit,” by the way. All this has allowed GBP to remain supported and may continue to put a limit to any downside in the near future.
- Next week is pretty light in terms of market-moving events. Data-wise, PMIs may point to further manufacturing weakness but should once again have limited market impact. On the political side, the first television debate between Mr. Johnson and the Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, will be the highlight of the week. The general perception of who comes out as the “winner” may affect some markets' expectations, although more opinion polls are probably going to be the major driver of the pound in the next few weeks.
AUD: Back to a dovish mood
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| AUD/USD 0.6811 | Neutral | 0.6740-0.6880 | 0.7000 |
- After depreciating more than 1% (vs. USD) this week on the back of poor labour data, the Australian dollar is now facing a period without significant data releases. The RBA minutes from the November policy meeting - to be released on Wednesday – will likely reiterate the now familiar “leaving the door open” (for more easing) narrative. However, the latest employment data likely makes the economic assessment in the minutes outdated; hence we're expecting a limited market impact to the release.
- The uptick in unemployment in October seems to have strengthened the market’s conviction that the next RBA cut is not a matter of “if” but rather of “when.” The next policy meeting is set for 3 December, which seems a bit early for another cut: by that day, the RBA won't have received any more input from hard data so a major deterioration in the external backdrop will likely be needed to prompt an easing move. Markets seem to agree (there's only a 21% implied probability of a December cut) and are leaning in favour of a restart to easing in 1Q20 (February cut 60% priced in), since GDP, inflation and more labour data will be available. For this week, the AUD will, however, continue to lack positive internal drivers and will rely entirely on sustained optimism on trade negotiations to dodge more downside pressure coming from the repricing of rate expectations.
NZD: The go-to commodity currency
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| NZD/USD 0.6406 | Mildly Bullish | 0.6360-0.6490 | 0.6500 |
- It is not exactly common to see the Kiwi dollar move in a diametrically opposed direction to that of the AUD. In a week dominated by idiosyncratic stories in the G10 $-bloc, NZD is the big winner, as our expectations that the RBNZ would hold fire (against market expectations) proved accurate. Latest CFTC data was indicating the NZD is the biggest speculative short in G10, and the slump in NZ govies has likely triggered a sizable short-squeezing effect in the currency. However, from the -52% net short positioning (as of 5 November), there’s probably still a long way to go to square short positions, and the positioning advantage is likely to keep playing a role to support NZD rallies.
- Next week looks quite uninspiring for NZD given the absence of market-moving releases, so the trade negotiations will inevitably remain the main the driver. However, we suspect the Kiwi dollar has the possibility to keep outperforming its risk-sensitive peers next week, thanks to its improved rate outlook. In particular, the opposing dynamics in the RBA and the RBNZ rate expectations makes the AUD/NZD 1.0624 100d-MA resistance look very fragile.
CAD: Baby steps towards a BoC cut
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| USD/CAD 1.3227 | Mildly Bullish | 1.3150-1.3372 | 1.3200 |
- Although net long speculative positions on the Canadian dollar were still on the rise as of last week, the loonie’s momentum dried up in the past ten days and is struggling to recover. The recent dovish shift by the Bank of Canada is preventing CAD to cash in on the supported risk sentiment despite a very appealing carry advantage. With the external backdrop broadly improving, markets will look at next week’s slew of Canadian data to spot any crack in the so-far solid economic outlook that could underpin an easing move by the BoC.
- We see some downside risk stemming from the September retail sales data out on Friday rather than the October CPI - which should continue to indicate that core and headline inflation are both around the central bank’s 2% target. The gauge has dropped in three of the last four months, and another fall may fuel expectations of a BoC cut as soon as December (to which we attach a higher probability than the market’s 20%). As long as markets keep taking “baby steps” to price in BoC easing, the benefit from trade optimism – bar any major breakthrough in US-China negotiations – may continue to be mostly offset by the deteriorating rate outlook.
CHF: Done over by the Italian job
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/CHF 1.0938 | Bullish | 1.0880-1.0980 | 1.1000 |
EUR/CHF came off hard this week, which was slightly surprising since it wasn’t a particularly ‘risk-off’ week. Where there was dislocation, it was in the Italian bond market, which seemed to succumb to profit-taking after a strong performance this year. Here the BTP-Bund spread widened about 20bp over the last week or so – although there have been no significant Italian developments to speak of. If that Italian correction is over, then CHF may hand back of some of the recent gains – leaving us slightly bullish on EUR/CHF for the week ahead.
Swiss data is rarely a market mover and we doubt the October trade data and 3Q19 industrial output numbers will have much bearing on CHF pricing. Instead, eurozone PMIs towards the end of the week could provide a slight lift for EUR/CHF if they manage to climb a little on the back of better trade news and easier monetary policy around the world.
NOK: Still helped by oil
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/NOK 10.0300 | Mildly Bearish | 9.9390-10.1100 | 10.1000 |
- Brent prices remain anchored around the 62$/bll level, which is pairing with the lingering trade-related optimism to underpin the krone’s steady recovery from late-October's all-time lows. The inflation report this week came broadly in line with expectations and confirmed that core inflation remains slightly above the 2% target. However, with the Norges Bank clearly indicating its intention to pause for an extended period, the impact of data releases remains quite limited given there are no tangible implications for the rate outlook.
- This week will almost entirely be about global risk sentiment driving EUR/NOK movements: the krone’s 6-month correlation with the MSCI World index (a measure of risk appetite) remains the second-highest in G10 (after CAD). Should optimism on Sino-American trade negotiations remain fairly solid, EUR/NOK could pressure the 10.00 level.
SEK: All about eurozone spillover
| Spot | Week ahead bias | Range next week | 1-month target |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/SEK 10.6500 | Mildly Bearish | 10.5300-10.7300 | 10.8000 |
- SEK is finishing this week slightly stronger than expected on the back of robust labour data – having been revised after the Statistical Agency revealed the data was flawed. This helped the market cement an expectation of a rate hike, although there still seems to be some room for this to be priced in further. Also stirring EUR/SEK lower was the German GDP readings narrowly escaping a technical recession, contributing to improved euro-area sentiment.
- No major data release in Sweden next week, but we would expect eurozone survey data to have, once again, significant spill-over effects on SEK given the high-beta of the krona to eurozone data surprises. Should, as our economists expect, EZ PMIs display some marginal recovery, and the optimism about trade developments remains mostly intact, EUR/SEK may continue to see limited upside risk in the next week.

Sobbing girl, 12, calls police after mum overdoses on heroin while driving car
Tiffany Smith pulled over while driving on a Florida highway with three kids and two dogs in her minivan
by Chiara FiorilloA 12-year-old girl called police in tears after her mum overdosed on heroin while driving the family car.
Tiffany Smith, 28, of Deltona, Florida, was pulled over while driving on a major road with three kids in her vehicle last Thursday.
Her sobbing daughter called 911 begging for help as she tried to make sure the vehicle was parked properly on a grass verge.
“My mom won’t wake up and we’re on I-4 in the car!" she said.
“I put it in “N” because I don’t know how to put it in ‘Park,’" the girl added, according to Volusia County Sheriff's Office.
The 12-year-old was with her two brothers, aged seven and one, and two dogs, when her mother overdosed in the vehicle.
Emergency services arrived at the scene at around 7pm and found the woman unconscious, according to The Sun .
Smith got a shot of Narcan, a spray used to treat overdoses, and later recovered consciousness in an ambulance, the force said as it released bodycam footage of the incident.
“I honestly took heroin because my back was hurting,” Smith told an officer while on a stretcher in the back of the ambulance, The New York Post reports.
“Heroin? Is that something you should be taking for your back?” an officer asked her.
“It’s not,” Smith mumbled, adding: “But I had no painkiller and my back was hurting and I was making a five-hour trip.”
The woman was charged with child neglect but was not immediately jailed as she was treated at a hospital in Orange City.
She was said to be in a stable condition, according to a statement.
The three children were not injured and were placed in the custody of their grandmother, the sheriff's office said.
Volusia County Animal Control officers took the two dogs, investigators added.


Custom Constraints
Let's continue the custom rules example, where we want to solve a puzzle that also enforces
that the diagonals contain all unique values. In this case, however, we'll solve this by adding a
new constraint: the
DiagonalUniquenessConstraint
.
If you haven't yet read the constraints summary, read that first!
Creating a constraint
Unlike rules, a single constraint object can be used to solve multiple puzzles. Generally speaking, no work needs to be done in the constructor.
The Constrain
method
The IConstraint.Constrain
operation adds new
ConstraintHeader
s (and corresponding
SquareLink
s) to the given
ExactCoverMatrix
. It must also drop any
PossibleValue
s that are now impossible based
on applying this constraint to the puzzle's preset values.
Define your headers
The first thing we need to identify is what a constraint header looks like for this constraint. We could state this constraint as follows:
Each forward diagonal, and each backward diagonal, needs to contain all possible values.
We could implement this by adding a constraint header for each possible value on each diagonal.
Determine unique coordinates
The unique coordinates here are those on the forward diagonal, and those on the backward diagonal. We can find all the coordinates on the forward diagonal as follows:
public void Constrain(IReadOnlyPuzzle puzzle, ExactCoverMatrix matrix)
{
var forwardDiagonalCoordinates = new Coordinate[puzzle.Size];
for (int row = 0, col = puzzle.Size - 1; row < puzzle.Size; row++, col--)
{
forwardDiagonalCoordinates[row] = new Coordinate(row, col);
}
// TODO: Get backward diagonal coordinates.
}
Identify possible values
We need to identify which values are actually possible on each diagonal based on the preset
values. Within the constraint-based solver, we map a puzzle's possible values to zero-based indices
based on the order they are returne when we first call puzzle.AllPossibleValues. This mapping is
handled by the ExactCoverMatrix
.
public void Constrain(IReadOnlyPuzzle puzzle, ExactCoverMatrix matrix)
{
...
Span<bool> isConstraintSatisfiedAtIndex =
stackalloc bool[matrix.AllPossibleValues.Length];
isConstraintSatisfiedAtIndex.Fill(false);
for (int i = 0; i < forwardDiagonalCoordinates.Length; i++)
{
var puzzleValue = puzzle[forwardDiagonalCoordinates[i]];
if (puzzleValue.HasValue)
{
isConstraintSatisfiedAtIndex[matrix.ValuesToIndices[puzzleValue.Value]] = true;
}
}
// TODO: Check this for backward diagonal coordinates.
}
Add headers and drop impossible rows
Now we can iterate through each possible value on each diagonal, drop possible square values that are no longer possible, and add constraint headers for the rest.
public void Constrain(IReadOnlyPuzzle puzzle, ExactCoverMatrix matrix)
{
...
var squares = new Square?[forwardDiagonalCoordinates.Length];
for (int i = 0; i < squares.Length; i++)
{
squares[i] = matrix.GetSquare(in forwardDiagonalCoordinates[i]);
}
for (int valueIndex = 0; valueIndex < isConstraintSatisfiedAtIndex.Length; valueIndex++)
{
if (isConstraintSatisfiedAtIndex[valueIndex])
{
ConstraintUtil.DropPossibleSquaresForValueIndex(squares, valueIndex, matrix);
continue;
}
ConstraintUtil.AddConstraintHeadersForValueIndex(squares, valueIndex, matrix);
}
// TODO: Add headers and drop rows for the backward diagonal.
}
Note that here we made use of the ConstraintUtil
to easily add headers and drop rows. This provides a few useful functions for implementin
constraints. In fact, we could have replaced all of this work for handling the forward diagonal
with the following:
Span<Coordinate> coordinates = stackalloc Coordinate[puzzle.Size];
for (int row = 0, col = puzzle.Size - 1; row < puzzle.Size; row++, col--)
{
coordinates[row] = new Coordinate(row, col);
}
ConstraintUtil.ImplementUniquenessConstraintForSquares(puzzle, coordinates, matrix);

In the United States, AP Geography is offered during high school students’ freshman year. As explained by The College Board [1], since it’s introduction in 2001, the growth of the number of students taking the course has been one of the fastest of all AP course offerings to high school students across the United States. A similar growth pattern has taken place in the number of contributors to the OpenStreetMap (OSM) since it’s birth and, in the United States specifically, since the 1st State of the Map U.S. (SOTMUS) Conference in 2010.
Shawn Goulet, a GIS Analyst with the Cape Cod Commission made an introduction to OSM presentation to the staff of the Social Studies department of Barnstable Public Schools in the Fall of 2013 and was bolstered following Shawn’s attendance at SOTMUS 2014 in Washington, D.C. Hilary Mueller, the AP Geography teacher at Barnstable High School, and Virginia Turner, the Social Studies Curriculum Coordinator for grades 6-12 in Barnstable Public Schools enthusiastically welcomed Shawn to work with them on working with the students of the AP sections on editing the OSM throughout the school year. This collaboration with Hilary and her students has continued over the past 2 school years.
Additionally, over the past year, Celeste Reynolds, the AP Geography teacher at Mashpee High School has expressed interest in adding OSM editing to Mashpee’s AP Geography sections. Towareds that end, Shawn has been working with a Mashpee High School senior who went through the AP Geography program and assists Celeste with her current sections, to develop a plan in hopes that Celeste can begin adding OSM editing to the curriculum for the 2015-2016 school year.
On Cape Cod, TeachOSM mapping began in the Fall of 2013. Hilary and Shawn agreed that the simplest approach to track students’ contributions to the OSM was to grid the specific town and assign grids to students to begin working on specific areas within the town The grids are generated in GIS software and the number and/or size of the grids is whatever the teacher and Shawn agree is appropriate depending on different variables such as the number of students, the number of sections offered and others that is variable annually. At this point, the students are introduced to OSM and Field Papers [2] throughout the course of the school year. Throughout the course of the school year, the students are tasked with continuously editing the OSM map features within their assigned grids. In addition, there is a map features theme which tasks the students with editing map features that fall under the topics covered in the various sections of the course at the time each section is being covered within their town or another geographic area where they have great knowledge of map features on the ground. If the teacher chooses, students work with the teacher and Shawn to develop a project surrounding OSM and possibly the use of a geoprocessing software.
For Mashpee, the OSM outline for integration with the course will be completed before the end of Spring 2015. Looking forward, Celeste wishes to commence OSM editing in a similar fashion as described above in Mashpee during the 2015-2016 school year.
The workflow of students’ contribution to the OSM is described above. To track the students’ progress, the students are required to document their contributions in a journal entering information such as beginning location, ending location, and a screen shot(s) of their edits from their account page at the end of each editing session. For now, this journal is maintained in a Google Doc file that is shared between the student and the teacher. Thus far, we have found that this provides a sufficient framework for the students to establish their independent workflows and the teacher to track the student’s contributions. The student is to be assigned additional grids in the town as each is deemed completed to the best of their ability by the student. Also, the editing of map features under each course section changes everytime the course moves to a new section. This component provides a direct connection to the course curriculum and it allows students to map features not necessarily within their town of which they have great knowledge and care. Finally, the course project is open to a discussion between the teacher and Shawn.
The largest challenge to this point for all parties has been the coordination of schedules and time during work and school hours. TeachOSM is time-consuming. There is a lot of material that is mandated for the teachers and students to cover in the AP Geography sections not including the integration of OSM contributions. TeachOSM sessions have to take place during the school day due to the many after school commitments that the teachers and students may have. As a result, that provides many challenges including the need for long periods (if avalailable) to provide sufficient time for edits and issues resolution. Additionally, school cancellations due to weather events put the teachers and students behind in their course schedule, which in turn pushes TeachOSM meetings further back on everyone’s schedule and the TeachOSM component loses momentum. Towards this end, we have found that coordination, flexibility and patience is extremely important. Also, repitition of the editing process with students is necessary at each TeachOSM meeting due to the students’ becoming overwhelmed from not necessarily actively contribuitng to OSM on a regular basis outside of the school day.
TeachOSM has been a lot of fun for everyone involved. The teachers and students enjoy contributing to OSM. It is productive and students are learning a new way to think, new areas of their town they may never have visited and are gaining practical skills that are applied to work in many positions in today’s workforce. The independent thinking nature of OSM editing in a relatively free-form structure brings the students outside of their comfort zone that they typically learn within. This is valuable. Today’s professionals in many fields may need to go outside of their everyday working environment from time to time to conduct business and be able to adapt to whatever is necessary for them to do their jobs. This is a skill that is only improved through experience. Gaining this experience early on in life will only prove more worthwhile with time.
When given the opportunity to work with students, time management is extremely important to being productive. OSM editing is also valuable both to the AP Geography course and to the students’ futures. The students can easily relate to the map features and they can see their work being integrated in products they actively use such as Craigslist, MapQuest, Pintrest and others. This process is a continuous work in progress and flexibility is key due to the uncertainty of dynamics out of everyone’s control as previously described. Regardless, OSM integration is most certainly valuable for high school-aged students to be given the opportunity. Towards this end, we commend the teachers that give us the opportunity to introduce OSM to their students. It is much appreciated.

The Julia Markdown parser in Julia's stdlib is not exactly complete and Franklin strives to bring useful extensions that are either defined in standard specs such as Common Mark or that just seem like useful extensions.
indirect references for instance [like so]
or also for images
![][some image]
some people find that useful as it allows referring multiple times to the same link for instance.
un-qualified code blocks and indented code blocks are allowed and are julia by default
a = 1 b = a+1
or
a = 1
b = a+1
you can specify the default language with @def lang = "julia"
. If you actually want a "plain" code block, qualify it as plaintext
like
so this is plain-text stuff.
Extension of highlighting for pkg
an shell
mode in Julia:
(v1.4) pkg> add Franklin
shell> blah
julia> 1+1
(Sandbox) pkg> resolve
you can tune the colouring in the CSS etc via the following classes:
.hljs-meta
(for julia>
)
.hljs-metas
(for shell>
)
.hljs-metap
(for ...pkg>
)
Franklin, by design, gives you a lot of flexibility to define how you want stuff be done, this includes doing your own parsing/processing and your own HTML generation using Julia code.
In order to do this, you can define two types of functions in a utils.jl
file which will complement your config.md
file:
hfun_*
allow you to plug custom-generated HTML somewhere
lx_*
allow you to do custom parsing of markdown and generation of HTML
The former (hfun_*
) is most likely to be useful.
If you define a function hfun_bar
in the utils.jl
then you have access to a new template function {{bar ...}}
. The parameters are passed as a list of strings, for instance variable names but it could just be strings as well.
For instance:
function hfun_bar(vname)
val = Meta.parse(vname[1])
return round(sqrt(val), digits=2)
end
.hf {background-color:black;color:white;font-weight:bold;}
Can be called with {{bar 4}}
: 2.0.
Usually you will want to pass variable name (either local or global) and collect their value via one of locvar
, globvar
or pagevar
depending on your use case. Let's have another toy example:
function hfun_m1fill(vname)
var = vname[1]
return pagevar("menu1", var)
end
Which you can use like this {{m1fill title}}
: List of Julia Streamers. Of course in this specific case you could also have used {{fill title menu1}}
: Code blocks.
Of course these examples are not very useful, in practice you might want to use it to generate actual HTML in a specific way using Julia code. For instance you can use it to customise how tag pages look like.
A nice example of what you can do is in the SymbolicUtils.jl manual where they use a hfun_
to generate HTML encapsulating the content of code docstrings, in a way doing something similar to what Documenter does. See how they defined it.
Note: the output will not be reprocessed by Franklin, if you want to generate markdown which should be processed by Franklin, then use return fd2html(markdown, internal=true)
at the end.
These commands will look the same as latex commands but what they do with their content is now entirely controlled by your code. You can use this to do your own parsing of specific chunks of your content if you so desire.
The definition of lx_*
commands must look like this:
function lx_baz(com, _)
# keep this first line
brace_content = Franklin.content(com.braces[1]) # input string
# do whatever you want here
return uppercase(brace_content)
end
You can call the above with \baz{some string}
: SOME STRING.
Note: the output will be reprocessed by Franklin, if you want to avoid this, then escape the output by using return "~~~" * s * "~~~"
and it will be plugged in as is in the HTML.

The fullscreen plugin allows the experiment to enter or exit fullscreen mode. For security reasons, all browsers require that entry into fullscreen mode is triggered by a user action. To enter fullscreen mode, this plugin has the user click a button. Exiting fullscreen mode can be done without user input.
Safari does not support keyboard input when the browser is in fullscreen mode. Therefore, the function will not launch fullscreen mode on Safari. The experiment will ignore any trials using the fullscreen plugin in Safari.
Parameters with a default value of undefined must be specified. Other parameters can be left unspecified if the default value is acceptable.
| Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| fullscreen_mode | boolean | true |
A value of true causes the experiment to enter fullscreen mode. A value of false causes the browser to exit fullscreen mode. |
| message | string |
The experiment will switch to full screen mode when you press the button below
 |
The HTML content to display above the button to enter fullscreen mode. |
| button_label | string | ‘Continue’ | The text that appears on the button to enter fullscreen mode. |
| delay_after | numeric | 1000 | The length of time to delay after entering fullscreen mode before ending the trial. This can be useful because entering fullscreen is jarring and most browsers display some kind of message that the browser has entered fullscreen mode. |
In addition to the default data collected by all plugins, this plugin collects the following data for each trial.
| Name | Type | Value |
|---|---|---|
| success | boolean | true if the browser supports fullscreen mode (i.e., is not Safari) |
var timeline = [];
timeline.push({
type: 'fullscreen',

I’ve been using Core Data since it was introduced in Mac OS X 10.4 “Tiger”, and it’s my first choice anytime I need to save structured data in my apps.
The problem is, everyone uses Core Data because there’s nothing better. It’s the best way to persist structured data on iOS and OS X, but it’s not actually much fun to implement and has many warts. To be utilised properly, Core Data requires a level of experience and knowledge that’s simply not reasonable to expect from people starting out with Cocoa development — although it does it’s best to convince you otherwise with the visual Core Data Modeller in Xcode.
Something as base as saving data should be much, much easier.
Before I really get stuck in, let me be clear: there are probably legitimate reasons why Core Data does all of the things I highlight. I’m not insinuating for a minute that any of my suggestions are even technically possible — this is what I would investigate for a major revision to Core Data (were it my call, which it is not).
Creating a usable Core Data stack for your application by hand requires far too much boilerplate. Apple should be providing a very basic [NSCoreDataStack newStackWithOptions:…]
or something similar that gets your app up and running with the best possible set of defaults.
Libraries like MagicalRecord provide this now, but it seems odd that the Core Data framework does little to aid setting up the stack in a recommended manner.
Yes, I meant to spell it that way.
In the last couple of years, Apple have made attempts to simplify and extend some parts of Core Data, including the addition of parent contexts, and methods to help run your code on the correct thread for a specific NSManagedObjectContext
(i.e. -(void)performBlock:
and -(void)performBlockAndWait:
).
The problem is, these additions are essentially workarounds for problems that shouldn’t really be the concern of the developer using the API.
The additions I cited above all stem from NSManagedObjectContext
and NSManagedObject
instances not being thread safe. I’d rather see Apple create new, non-backwards compatible API to solve this than continue to patch underlying design issues with new API. I get this one is not trivial. Threading never is.
If you’ve used Core Data, chances are you’ve seen it do it’s best impression of a monkey in a cage.  Debugging a Core Data app with lldb intercepting all exceptions is an exercise in frustration and sifting through “what’s yours” and “what’s mine”.
I’d like to see all exceptions thrown by the framework properly caught and dealt with before the developer ever sees them in Xcode.
One of the common things new users of Core Data try to do is store images and other data in their SQLite persistent store. It’s entirely possible to do so, and the addition of external binary representations for Binary attributes helps improve performance when doing so.
The issue is, accessing that data can have significant memory implications as you can’t really take advantage of any of the great optimisations Apple has made to image/file loading without first dumping the data of the attribute into a temporary file outside of your store.
Want to use any of the audio visual frameworks to access media that you’ve stored in your persistent store? Forget it. They all need a URL or file path.
Allowing direct access to binary data attributes external file URLs (and allowing access to read that file via the URL) would greatly simplify this scenario, and I’d imagine it would reduce disk I/O.
I use NSFetchedResultsController
in almost all of my iOS apps. I set it up and forget about it, and it takes care of marshalling any changes to my datasources. NSArrayController
is the prototype that we have on OS X, and it’s just not setup to handle things like animating UI changes in table views and the like.
A simple, fast way to automatically query and update a datasource and handle discrete changes on both platforms would be a huge time saver. Making it capable of doing it’s work nicely on a background thread would be a big win, too.
Any improvements to performance in any API are always a good thing, but Core Data has some specific areas that could use attention. Anything involving batch operations could use a bit of love (as outlined by Brent in his series of posts on Core Data in Vesper).
Honestly though, I think Core Data.next needs to be simpler to implement and interact with:
NSManagedObject
subclassesThis is all pie in the sky, but it’s nice to dream right?
And maybe to implement. Maybe.
Hit me up on Twitter or App.net with your thoughts, or even better — write a post in response.


JavaScript is a programming language that makes the web interactive. If you've ever gone to a website and played a game, saw an image slideshow, used a drop-down menu, or taken a quiz then you've seen JavaScript in action. JavaScript should not be confused with Java, which is completely unrelated programming language.
JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages in the world and one of the few that works in your browser. The language was originally developed by Brendan Eich in 1995 while working at Netscape. His goal was to provide a language that would appeal to nonprofessional programmers. The ECMA standard association adopted the language in 1997.
JavaScript works by manipulating elements in a webpage. Elements are accessed through the Document Object Model (DOM), kind of similar to how CSS can access webpage DOM elements to style them. JavaScript support is built right into all major web browsers. Web browsers interpret JavaScript code to make your webpages interactive.
How is JavaScript different than HTML? HTML is used to display static webpages, whereas JavaScript makes the webpage interactive.
JavaScript is a popular language because it is a relatively easy programming language to learn and it allows you to create fairly complex applications - think Google Maps.
The language is criticized for a few reasons it is very easy to produce bugs that go undetected by the compiler. This can make it difficult to debug code and increase the development cycle.
JavaScript only runs in your browser window and because of this there are limitations to what it can do. JavaScript cannot read from or write files in your computer. It cannot access servers or databases. Security in place prevents webpages from being able to access your computer, limiting the use of JavaScript relative to what other client-side software can do.


So God does not exist and potency can be reduced to act by another act.
Let us take the example where I move my hand up. In order to do that, I must reduce the potency of my hand to be up to act. In order to do that, I must simultaneously move my wrist in the same way (reducing the potency of my wrist to be up). In order to do that, I must simultaneously move muscles and nerves and electric impulses and so on. Can this chain of movement go on forever?

CFITSIO supports simultaneous read and write access to multiple HDUs in the same FITS file. Thus, one can open the same FITS file twice within a single program and move to 2 different HDUs in the file, and then read and write data or keywords to the 2 extensions just as if one were accessing 2 completely separate FITS files. Since in general it is not possible to physically open the same file twice and then expect to be able to simultaneously (or in alternating succession) write to 2 different locations in the file, CFITSIO recognizes when the file to be opened (in the call to fits_open_file) has already been opened and instead of actually opening the file again, just logically links the new file to the old file. (This of course does not prevent the same file from being simultaneously opened by more than one program). Then before CFITSIO reads or writes to either (logical) file, it makes sure that any modifications made to the other file have been completely flushed from the internal buffers to the file. Thus, in principle, one could open a file twice, in one case pointing to the first extension and in the other pointing to the 2nd extension and then write data to both extensions, in any order, without danger of corrupting the file. There may be some efficiency penalties in doing this however, since CFITSIO has to flush all the internal buffers related to one file before switching to the other, so it would still be prudent to minimize the number of times one switches back and forth between doing I/O to different HDUs in the same file.
Some restriction apply: a FITS file cannot be opened the first time with READONLY access, and then opened a second time with READWRITE access, because this may be phyically impossible (e.g., if the file resides on read-only media such as a CDROM). Also, in multi-threaded environoments, one should never open the same file with write access in different threads.
