- There are many reasons for taking lecture notes.
- Making yourself take notes forces you to listen carefully and test your understanding of the material.
- When you are reviewing, notes provide a gauge to what is important in the text.
- Personal notes are usually easier to remember than the text.
- The writing down of important points helps you to remember then even before you have studied the material formally.
- Instructors usually give clues to what is important to take down. Some of the more common clues are:
- Material written on the blackboard.
- Repetition
- Emphasis
- Emphasis can be judged by tone of voice and gesture.
- Emphasis can be judged by the amount of time the instructor spends on points and the number of examples he or she uses.
- Word signals (e.g. "There are two points of view on . . . " "The third reason is . . . " " In conclusion . . . ")
- Summaries given at the end of class.
- Reviews given at the beginning of class.
- Each student should develop his or her own method of taking notes, but most students find the following suggestions helpful:
- Make your notes brief.
- Never use a sentence where you can use a phrase. Never use a phrase where you can use a word.
- Use abbreviations and symbols, but be consistent.
- Put most notes in your own words. However, the following should be noted exactly:
- Formulas
- Definitions
- Specific facts
- Use outline form and/or a numbering system. Indention helps you distinguish major from minor points.
- If you miss a statement, write key words, skip a few spaces, and get the information later.
- Don't try to use every space on the page. Leave room for coordinating your notes with the text after the lecture. (You may want to list key terms in the margin or make a summary of the contents of the page.)
- Date your notes. Perhaps number the pages.
SAVING TIME ON NOTETAKING
Here are some hints regarding taking notes on classroom lectures that can save time for almost any student. Some students say that they plan to rewrite or type their notes later. To do so is to use a double amount of time; once to take the original notes and a second to rewrite them. The advice is simple: DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME!
Second, there are some students who attempt to take notes in shorthand. Though shorthand is a valuable tool for a secretary, it is almost worthless for a student doing academic work. Here's why. Notes in shorthand cannot be studied in that form. They must first be transcribed. The act of transcribing notes takes an inordinate amount of time and energy but does not significantly contribute to their mastery. It is far better to have taken the notes originally in regular writing and then spend the time after that in direct study and recitation of the notes.
Third, do not record the lesson on a cassette tape or any other tape. The lecture on tape precludes flexibility. This statement can be better understood when seen in the light of a person who has taken his/her notes in regular writing. Immediately after taking the notes this person can study them in five minutes before the next class as s/he walks toward the next building, as s/he drinks his/her coffee, or whatever. Furthermore, this student, in looking over his/her notes, may decide that the notes contain only four worthwhile ideas which s/he can highlight, relegating the rest of the lecture to obscurity. Whereas the lecture on tape has to be listened to in its entirety including the worthwhile points as well as the "garbage," handwritten notes may be studied selectively. A student who takes the easy way out - recording the lecture on tape as he or she sits back doing nothing - will box him or herself into inflexibility.
NOTE MAKING
Learning to make notes effectively will help you to improve your study and work habits and to remember important information. Often, students are deceived into thinking that because they understand everything that is said in class they will therefore remember it. This is dead wrong! Write it down.
As you make notes, you will develop skill in selecting important material and in discarding unimportant material. The secret to developing this skill is practice. Check your results constantly. Strive to improve. Notes enable you to retain important facts and data and to develop an accurate means of arranging necessary information.
Here are some hints on note making.
- Don't write down everything that you read or hear. Be alert and attentive to the main points. Concentrate on the "meat" of the subject and forget the trimmings.
- Notes should consist of key words or very short sentences. If a speaker gets sidetracked it is often possible to go back and add further information.
- Take accurate notes. You should usually use your own words, but try not to change the meaning. If you quote directly from an author, quote correctly.
- Think a minute about your material before you start making notes. Don't take notes just to be taking notes! Take notes that will be of real value to you when you look over them at a later date.
- Have a uniform system of punctuation and abbreviation that will make sense to you. Use a skeleton outline and show importance by indenting. Leave lots of white space for later additions.
- Omit descriptions and full explanations. Keep your notes short and to the point. Condense your material so you can grasp it rapidly.
- Don't worry about missing a point.
- Don't keep notes on oddly shaped pieces of paper. Keep notes in order and in one place.
- Shortly after making your notes, go back and rework (not redo) your notes by adding extra points and spelling out unclear items. Remember, we forget rapidly. Budget time for this vital step just as you do for the class itself.
- Review your notes regularly. This is the only way to achieve lasting memory.

Sometimes in Lean you sit down to write a definition or a theorem, knowing that it will be really easy and fun. I was just in that situation. I need to write down some maps between localized rings and prove that they have some properties, but now I know that the localization interface is excellent and that pretty much every single one of my proofs will look like name_of_function _ _ _ _ _
.
However, I have run into an unexpected annoyance.
Here is my skeleton set-up.
definition localization.loc_loc_is_loc {R : Type u} [comm_ring R] {f g : R} (H : Spec.D' g ⊆ Spec.D' f) : (localization.away g) ≃ᵣ localization.away (localization.of_comm_ring R (powers f) g) := { to_fun := _, inv_fun := _, left_inv := _, right_inv := _, is_ring_hom := _ }
The idea now is that I just fill in all the holes one by one.
But I want the holes to have red squiggles under them!
And for some reason, only the last one does
and the associated complaint is full of metavariables
because it depends on some earlier holes
begin end
and then remove it later?
because it's a def
i just fill in stuff in front of begin end
I mean, replace your _ with begin end
I can show you that in person next week ^^
begin exact _ end
:-)
Many thanks Kenny!
I feel like there are so many little tips like this, and it's unclear to me where they should be put.
you don’t need exact _

History
Extends:
Backbone.History - History serves as a global router. (http://backbonejs.org/#History)
History serves as a global router (per frame) to handle hashchange events or pushState, match the appropriate route, and trigger callbacks. You shouldn't ever have to create one of these yourself since Backbone.history already contains one.
pushState support exists on a purely opt-in basis in Backbone. Older browsers that don't support pushState will continue to use hash-based URL fragments, and if a hash URL is visited by a pushState-capable browser, it will be transparently upgraded to the true URL. Note that using real URLs requires your web server to be able to correctly render those pages, so back-end changes are required as well. For example, if you have a route of /documents/100, your web server must be able to serve that page, if the browser visits that URL directly. For full search-engine crawlability, it's best to have the server generate the complete HTML for the page ... but if it's a web application, just rendering the same content you would have for the root URL, and filling in the rest with Backbone Views and JavaScript works fine.
Handles cross-browser history management, based on either pushState and real URLs, or onhashchange and URL fragments. If the browser supports neither (old IE, natch), falls back to polling.

India's updated political map stirs controversy in Nepal
Both New Delhi and Kathmandu lay claim to a region, known as Kalapani, as part of their countries' territory.
India's new political map has stirred controversy in Nepal, with both New Delhi and Kathmandu laying claim to a region, known as Kalapani, as part of their countries' territory.
Members of the opposition parties protested in the capital Kathmandu as well as other parts of the country, accusing India of "illegally occupying" its land.
More:
On Thursday, students linked to the opposition Nepali Congress party protested outside the Indian embassy in Kathmandu, carrying signs that read: "Back Off India", to protest against the map, bringing back the memory of anti-India protests in the wake of the 2015 border blockade imposed by India.
Nepalese took to social media backing their government's claim that Kalapani - a 35 square-kilometres (13.5 square-miles) area in Nepal's far-western region - belonged to the landlocked Himalayan nation with hashtags #BackoffIndia and #Kalapani trending on Twitter.
Once serving as a trade route between India and what is now southwestern China, the strategic area was "occupied" by India after New Delhi withdrew its border forces following its war with China (in 1962), according to Buddhi Narayan Shrestha, former director general of Nepal's Survey Department.
Kalapani is the land of Nepal and our party stands firm on this conviction. India is continuously trying to settle this issue but we won't go back in our claim.
Narayan Kaji Shrestha, spokesman of the ruling Nepal Communist Party
"The Nepal government firmly believes that the Kalapani is a part of Nepal," Nepal's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Wednesday.
However, a spokesman of India's Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) claimed the region was part of India.
"Our map accurately depicts the sovereign territory of India. The new map in no manner has revised our boundary with Nepal," said MEA spokesman Raveesh Kumar.
He reiterated India's "commitment to find a solution through dialogue in the spirit of our close and friendly bilateral relations".
"At the same time, both countries should guard against vested interests trying to create differences between our two countries."
Boundary dispute
Kalapani, which borders the Indian state of Uttarakhand, is also included in Nepal's official map. Uttarakhand shares an 80km long porous border with Nepal and a 344km border with China.
"Kalapani is the land of Nepal and our party stands firm on this conviction. India is continuously trying to settle this issue but we won't go back in our claim," Narayan Kaji Shrestha, a spokesman of the ruling Nepal Communist Party, told Al Jazeera.
India's Ministry of Home Affairs published an updated map on Sunday after stripping the Indian-administered Kashmir's special status and splitting the Himalayan region into two federally administered territories in August.
Kathmandu and New Delhi have held a series of talks to resolve the boundary dispute, but Kalapani and the Susta area in southern Nepal remain two major sticking points in negotiations, Gokul Prasad Baskota, Nepal's communication and information technology minister, told Anadolu news agency.
Nepal also lays claim to Lipulekh Pass close to Kalapani with a T-junction on the trading route between India and China since 2015.
Bipin Adhikari, a constitutional expert, said; "If you go through historical proofs then it is clear that Kalapani is a part of Nepal. It is an illegally occupied territory."
India and Nepal share an 1,800km (1,118 miles) open border, with thousands of people from both countries crossing the frontier for work and travel.
Relations between the two countries were strained after Nepal blamed India for imposing a border blockade in 2015, which crippled supplies to the landlocked nation.
Many experts in Nepal believe that India has not honoured the 1950 Treaty of Peace and Friendship between the two countries.

Top 5 Instagram tips and tricks: Hiding Stories, switching to business profiles Here are the top five tips and tricks which you can implement on Instagram, to stay one step ahead of others. 23 Nov 2019, 13:24 Posting images to multiple platforms like Instagram, Twitter and Facebook might seem a bit taxing. However, with a few simple steps, you can set up Instagram to do so automatically when you upload an image on to it. All you need to do is head to Profile > Options > Settings > Account > Linked Accounts and there link all your social media accounts. This will then automatically start sharing images on all your social media accounts as and when you upload them on Instagram. Instagram let's other users see when you were last online in a similar fashion to WhatsApp's last seen feature. To avoid people seeing your last seen status you can disable the Activity Status feature. To do so you can head to Profile > Options > Settings > Privacy> Show Activity Status. Inside of the setting you simply need to toggle the switch to disable the feature. Business Accounts have a lot of flexibility and can do a lot more than personal accounts. These features include post statistics, profile reach, profile analytics, scheduling posts and more. To convert your Instagram account to a business account, you need to head to Settings > Account, inside of the section you can hit switch to a Business Account. To hide your Story updates from specific users on Instagram you can do so by going to the Instagram profile of the user who you do not want to be able to see your stories and then tap on the optional menu. There you will see an option to "Hide Your Story," just enable that. When a Story is getting too boring, you can simply skip it with just one tap on the right side of the display. To skip various Stories from a single user, you can just swipe from the right to the left. To pause a Story update you can simply tap the screen and hold it there.

UTC
Address: 127.127.11.u
Reference ID: GPS
Driver ID: GPS_ARBITER
Serial Port: /dev/gpsu; 9600 baud, 8-bits, no parity
Features: tty_clk
This driver supports the Arbiter 1088A/B Satellite Controlled Clock. The claimed accuracy of this clock is 100 ns relative to the PPS output when receiving four or more satellites.
The receiver should be configured before starting the NTP daemon, in order to establish reliable position and operating conditions. It does not initiate surveying or hold mode. For use with NTP, the daylight savings time feature should be disables (D0 command) and the broadcast mode set to operate in UTC (BU command).
The timecode format supported by this driver is selected by the poll sequence B5, which initiates a line in the following format to be repeated once per second until turned off by the B0 command.
Format B5 (24 ASCII printing characters):
<cr><lf>i yy ddd hh:mm:ss.000bbb on-time = <cr> i = synchronization flag (' ' = locked, '?' = unlocked) yy = year of century ddd = day of year hh:mm:ss = hours, minutes, seconds .000 = fraction of second (not used) bbb = tailing spaces for fill
The alarm condition is indicated by a '?' at i, which indicates the receiver is not synchronized. In normal operation, a line consisting of the timecode followed by the time quality character (TQ) followed by the receiver status string (SR) is written to the clockstats file.
The time quality character is encoded in IEEE P1344 standard:
Format TQ (IEEE P1344 estimated worst-case time quality)
0 clock locked, maximum accuracy F clock failure, time not reliable 4 clock unlocked, accuracy < 1 us 5 clock unlocked, accuracy < 10 us 6 clock unlocked, accuracy < 100 us 7 clock unlocked, accuracy < 1 ms 8 clock unlocked, accuracy < 10 ms 9 clock unlocked, accuracy < 100 ms A clock unlocked, accuracy < 1 s B clock unlocked, accuracy < 10 s
The status string is encoded as follows:
Format SR (25 ASCII printing characters)
V=vv S=ss T=t P=pdop E=ee vv = satellites visible ss = relative signal strength t = satellites tracked pdop = position dilution of precision (meters) ee = hardware errors
A three-stage median filter is used to reduce jitter and provide a dispersion measure. The driver makes no attempt to correct for the intrinsic jitter of the radio itself.
When enabled by the flag4 fudge flag, an additional line containing the latitude, longitude, elevation and optional deviation data is written to the clockstats file. The deviation data operates with an external pulse-per-second (PPS) input, such as a cesium oscillator or another radio clock. The PPS input should be connected to the B event channel and the radio initialized for deviation data on that channel. The deviation data consists of the mean offset and standard deviation of the external PPS signal relative the GPS signal, both in microseconds over the last 16 seconds.

The Gvolwheel package provides a lightweight volume control with a tray icon.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-7.4 platform.
Download (HTTP): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gvolwheel/gvolwheel-1.0.tar.gz
Download MD5 sum: 4f04f00cdb875894c96b8a3ff8a9edb9
Download size: 340 KB
Estimated disk space required: 2.8 MB
Estimated build time: less than 0.1 SBU
alsa-utils-<IP_ADDRESS>, GTK+-3.8.4, Intltool-0.50.2 and XML::Parser-2.41
User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/gvolwheel
In the Device Drivers ⇒ Sound card support ⇒ Advanced Linux Sound Architecture section of the kernel configuration, ensure that OSS Mixer API (CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS) is selected. If necessary, recompile and install your new kernel.
Install Gvolwheel by running the following commands:
sed -i 's%doc/gvolwheel%share/doc/gvolwheel-1.0%' Makefile.in && ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-oss && make
This package does not come with a working test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
sed -i 's%doc/gvolwheel%share/doc/gvolwheel-1.0%' ...: This ensures that the documentation into a versioned directory.
--enable-oss
: without this,
the program will not run unless alsamixer has been run.
Before using this application, use alsamixer to ensure the channels are not muted, and are set to suitable levels so that the master volume control will provide suitable levels. Once gvolwheel is running you can, if you wish, right-click on its icon in the tray to change it to control the PCM volume instead of the master volume. Depending on your theme settings, you may also wish to tick "Use Gnome Icons".
If you middle-click on the icon, it will mute the volume, that is, it will set it to zero : do not confuse this with the mute/unmute controls in e.g. alsamixer.

The basic structure of an HTML tag:
<tag name>contents</tag name>
Here are some tag examples:
There is a difference between inline and block-level tags.
If you want to know more about the difference between inline and block, go to:
Inline vs. Block
HTML provides structure. CSS provides style. JavaScript allows interaction.
Think of HTML as a tree-like structure.
DOM = Document Object Model. This is a tree-like structure of a web page.
Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Scratchpad is the easiest but least professional. Sublime is most difficult but most professional. Codepen is inbetween.
HTML provides structure in the form of blocks (rectangles on the page). This provides the template in which to fill with text and images.
CSS allows us to add style to a webpage. Int allows one to code repetition. Avoiding repetition is important because it saves time, minimizes coding errors and saves time debugging.
CSS is designed to enable separation of document content from presentation, including elements such as layout, colors and fonts.
CSS can be inserted directly into an HTML document using <style> tag or written in a separate document and using <link> tag in the HTML doc to reference it.
Go to this page to more information on selectors: CSS Selectors
Selectors allow you to apply syling to specific HTML elements.

Apache log4j includes Chainsaw a graphical log viewer.
Chainsaw can either receive and display log events in realtime over the network, or it can load a previously created log file.
Before Chainsaw can display data, one or more receivers must be setup.
This is usually done by specifying an xml config file when the program
first starts up.
Save one or more of the sample xml config files to your local system and
load them when Chainsaw starts.
log4net can be configured to log messages via UDP in such a way that Chainsaw can receive and display them.
Configure log4net to use a UdpAppender with the following config snippet:
<appender name="UdpAppender" type="log4net.Appender.UdpAppender"> <remoteAddress value="<IP_ADDRESS>" /> <remotePort value="8080" /> <layout type="log4net.Layout.XmlLayoutSchemaLog4j"> <locationInfo value="true" /> </layout> </appender>
Chainsaw should be configured to start a
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd"> <log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/" debug="true"> <plugin name="UDPReceiver" class="org.apache.log4j.net.UDPReceiver"> <param name="Port" value="8080" /> </plugin> </log4j:configuration>
Chainsaw can also load an XML log file if it is formatted according to the log4j schema. Use the following log4net config to output to file using the log4j schema:
<appender name="FileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender"> <file value="log-file.txt" /> <appendToFile value="true" /> <layout type="log4net.Layout.XmlLayoutSchemaLog4j"> <locationInfo value="true" /> </layout> </appender>
To load the file into Chainsaw drag the file into the Chainsaw app and drop it on the tab labeled Drag & Drop log files here.


LeftValues is a leftist quiz inspired by and based upon the 8values quiz that seeks to identify your position on the left-wing
spectrum. If you are not a leftist, this quiz is obviously not suited for you. You will be presented with a
statement, and then you will answer with your opinion on the statement, from Strongly Agree to
Strongly Disagree, with each answer slightly affecting your scores. The questions for each axes are
presented in order, rather than scattered. At the end of the quiz, your answers will be compared to the maximum
possible for each value, thus giving you a percentage. Answer honestly!
There are questions in the test.
There are currently seven axes, each of which has two opposing values. They are:
Revolution vs. Reform
Those with a higher revolution score tend to support a radical and rapid overthrow of the capitalist system
through a mass uprising. Those with a higher reform score tend to favor inducing gradual changes within
capitalist structures, such as liberal democracy, with the eventual goal of reaching socialism.
Scientific vs. Utopian
Those with a higher scientific score tend to support or sympathize with the Marxist analysis of society along
the lines of dialectical materialism. Those with a higher utopian score tend to believe in a more idealistic
analysis of society and reject materialist approaches.
Central vs. Decentral
Those with a higher central score tend to support an economic structure based around centralized national
planning. Those with a higher decentral score tend to support an economic structure based around decentralized
planning, usually on a more localized scale.
International vs. National
Those with a higher international score tend to support forming an international socialist movement, often with
the eventual goal of abolishing nations. Those with a higher national score tend to prioritize building
socialism within existing borders and reject the goal of a world socialist republic.
Party vs. Union
Those with a higher party score tend to favor using political parties as the basis of a socialist movement.
Those with a higher union score tend to favor using trade unions and other forms of mass organization as a basis
of a socialist movement. Being pro-party does not necessarily mean you oppose unions and vice versa, it is more
about preference.
Production vs. Nature
Those with a higher production score tend to prioritize industrial output and self-sustainability over
ecological goals. Those with a higher nature score tend to support an environmentally oriented economy with
strict ecological protections.
Conservative vs. Progressive
Those with a higher conservative score tend to favor more socially conservative policies and views. Those with a
higher progressive score tend to support more socially progressive policies and views.
Similar to 8values, this quiz will attempt to match you with a specific leftist ideology. There are currently twelve possible ideologies, with more to come in the future. This is a work in progress and may not work as intended. Suggestions are very welcome. The current ideologies are: Marxism-Leninism, Orthodox Marxism, Eco-Marxism, Centrist Marxism, Council Communism, Left Communism, Anarcho-Communism, Eco-Anarchism, Market Anarchism, Utopian Socialism, Democratic Socialism and Social Democracy.
Please remember that you are not intended to get a 100% score in any of the categories. The point of the quiz is to challenge your views. If you have any suggestions or constructive criticism please fill out this short form or open an issue on the GitHub Page.
LeftValues does utilize very basic tracking to get an idea of the amount of visitors. No personal information is collected and answers/results are not saved. If you do not believe me, the code is open source and available for all to see. For transparency purposes, the collected data for the first week since release can be viewed on this Google Document.

Overview
-----
* Current : What does Mantis currently solve?
* Using Mantis : How to and Demo
* Challenges : Lowest common denominator problem
* Future : What's coming next in Mantis?
Current : The Problem
-------
* WebRTC is P2P
* Great for 1 to 1
* OK for small group using mesh architecture
* Not so great for large multi-party calls
* Does not do broadcast
P2P Mesh Architecture
-------
![P2p Diagram](img/p2p-diagram.png)
The Solution: Mantis
------
* Acts as a peer and re-broadcasts your stream to other participants
* Tested with up to 60 concurrent streams per call
* 1 publisher to 60 subscribers
* 2 publishers to 30 subscribers
* More coming
Bridging with Mantis
--------
![Mantis Diagram](img/Mantis-Diagram.png)
How to use Mantis
-------
* By default all OpenTok applications are Mantis enabled
* No need to re-write an application to be P2P or client-server
* P2P flag when you create a Session

Challenges : Lowest common denominator problem
------
* In a large call someone will have a bad connection
* Drags everyone else down
Possible Solutions
-------
* Simulcast
* Broadcast at multiple bitrates at the same time
* Scalable Encoding
* Temporal Scaling - encode multiple framerates
* Spacial Scaling - encoding multiple resolutions
* Transcoding on the server
Temporal Scalability
------
![Temporal Scalability](img/temporal-scalability.jpg)
* Slight increase in bitrate required for high framerate (25% more)
Temporal + Spatial Scalability
--------
![Temporal+Spatial Scalability](img/temporal+spatial-scalability.jpg)
* Significant increase in bitrate required for high-res stream
Temporal + Simulcast
-------
* Multiple streams are transferred to Mantis
* Mantis transmits just the stream that is suited to the subscriber
* Higher bitrate required between Publisher and Mantis
* Slight increase in bitrate required between Mantis and Subscriber just for temporal scalability
Current State of Affairs
-------
* Browsers (Firefox and Chrome) don't support Simulcast or Scalable Encoding
* Browsers are planning to add both Temporal Scalability and Simulcast ([IETF Draft](http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-westerlund-avtcore-multistream-and-simulcast-00))
* Temporal Scalability and Simulcast are available in the WebRTC codebase
* We have turned it on in iOS (works great!)
In the meantime : fallback to audio-only
-------
* Bad quality peers are forced to audio-only
* Not ideal
* Hard to know when to recover
* We're still experimenting
What's coming next in Mantis?
------
* Archiving
* PSTN phone in and phone out
* Larger scale broadcasts (1000s)
Archiving
-----
* Beta release scheduled for November (shhhh)
* Server-side RESTful API for starting, stopping and retrieving an archive
* Output is a composited mp4 file for playback in a Video Element (h.264, mp3)
* Supports Chrome Screen-Sharing API
PSTN phone in and phone out

public interface Attribute extends Cloneable, Serializable
In a directory, named objects can have associated with them attributes. The Attribute interface represents an attribute associated with a named object. An attribute contains 0 or more, possibly null, values. The attribute values can be ordered or unordered (see isOrdered()). If the values are unordered, no duplicates are allowed. If the values are ordered, duplicates are allowed.
The content and representation of an attribute and its values is defined by the attribute's schema. The schema contains information about the attribute's syntax and other properties about the attribute. See getAttributeDefinition() and getAttributeSyntaxDefinition() for details regarding how to get schema information about an attribute if the underlying directory service supports schemas.
Equality of two attributes is determined by the implementation class. A simple implementation can use Object.equals() to determine equality of attribute values, while a more sophisticated implementation might make use of schema information to determine equality. Similarly, one implementation might provide a static storage structure which simply returns the values passed to its constructor, while another implementation might define get() and getAll(). to get the values dynamically from the directory.
Note that updates to Attribute (such as adding or removing a value) do not affect the corresponding representation of the attribute in the directory. Updates to the directory can only be effected using operations in the DirContext interface.

I feel like the fog is begining to clear and I am getting a slight understanding of how she flew. I was hung up with her flying at Mach speeds where as she was flown at an IAS (specific the the profile she was in). The Mach speed, especially when high, was a result of the temperature and not because she was f a s t ! The altitude flown was due to temperature and weight of the areoplane. This is true of all aeroplanes but due to the extreme environment this was more true of Concorde?
The subsonics have issues with Coffin Corner (I think I read that one Airbus model had somehting like 7kts between the high and low end of the envelope when up high); did Concorde have this "problem"? I remember reading the BA Concorde flew with 2 Captain Pilots (and of course the most important Flight Engineer) and when I was watching The Rise and Fall of the Concorde , I was looking for the 4 bars in the RHS. Didn't see one but on the Air France Concorde the RHS pilot had 3 stripes. Was this correct or are my "little grey cells" confused?(sorry can't type a Belgium accent ) I don't know why this popped into my head but what was her glide ratio if all the engines stopped? Maybe because I remember from my early training being told the a B707 had a better glide ratio than the PA28-140 I was learning in. Now that was an eye opener at the time. |

Keep the stories coming!
Just wanted to add my voice to those encouraging you to continue... this thread is great stuff! What a fascinating ship; makes my day job on the B744 look plain in comparison
I too would like to ask what her idle thrust glide ratio was? From Bellerophon's post:

...The altitude flown was due to temperature and weight of the areoplane. This is true of all aeroplanes... Sadly, it isn’t, as subsonic aircraft are allocated a specific cruising flight level and often - for example on the North Atlantic Track system - a specific cruising Mach number as well, and no deviation from that clearance is permitted without specific permission from ATC. Obviously everyone flight plans at the most economic heights and speeds for their aircraft type, but in busy airspace not everyone gets what they want! Think of your flight plan as being Angelina Jolie, and your ATC clearance as being your wife. Your flight plan is what you’d really like to have, but your ATC clearance is what you’re going to have to live with! ... altitude flown was due to temperature and weight of the areoplane...this was more true of Concorde?... Subsonic aircraft could equally benefit from using cruise-climb techniques (early long range aircraft crews knew all about cruise-climb techniques and used them when able) but with the large number of subsonic aircraft now using the world’s airways it is impractical for ATC to allow them to drift up and down at will, and so they are assigned specific cruising altitudes. Few other aircraft got up to Concorde’s cruising levels, and so ATC were able to issue much more flexible clearances to her. A typical Concorde ATC clearance would have allowed her to accelerate to M2.00 whilst operating within a "block" of altitude, rather than at a specific flight level. Typically this block clearance would have been to operate anywhere between FL450 up to FL600 without restriction. So, unlike subsonic aircraft assigned a fixed cruising altitude such as FL350, Concorde could, and did, drift up or down, and was thus able to remain at the optimum altitude for the prevailing conditions throughout most of the flight. ... I remember reading the BA Concorde flew with 2 Captain Pilots (and of course the most important Flight Engineer)... Concorde operated, as did all 3 crew aircraft in BA, with a standard crew of a Captain, F/O and F/E. A small number of trips had two Captains on board (or two F/Es for that matter) when training or checking was going on, or an extra crew member was carried for PR purposes, but otherwise, the vast majority of occasions, just the standard crew was on board. Everyone preferred it that way, especially the F/O and F/E! ... The subsonics have issues with Coffin Corner (I think I read that one Airbus model had somehting like 7kts between the high and low end of the envelope when up high); did Concorde have this "problem"?... Have a look at this picture of G-BOAE, cruising at her maximum certificated altitude of FL600, en-route to Barbados on 16 August 2003: The available IAS speed range is shown on the ASI, and lies between the yellow and black Barbers Pole, currently indicating 440kts, and the white bug set to 300kts, the VLA ( L owest A uthorised speed) at this altitude. The available Mach speed range is shown on the Mach meter, and lies between the yellow and black Barbers Pole, currently indicating M2.05, and the yellow bug which indicates the lowest Mach number allowed for the current aircraft CG position (the AFT limit) currently showing M1.35. So, given that at her maximum altitude she had a speed range of 140kts IAS and a Mach range of M0.7, we can see that coffin corner was not a problem! main_dog ...I too would like to ask what her idle thrust glide ratio was... By my calculations, the figures quoted for a straight in approach, give an average glide ratio of around 20:1, however these were for a standard decel/descent, and on Concorde the early part of the decel/descent was not flown at idle power. A considerable amount of power was left on initially, around 94% N2, for various reasons, and only below M1.0 were the throttles usually selected to idle. I hadn’t noticed it until now but there does not appear to have been a chart giving glide distance at idle thrust! However, since the speeds to be flown during the “4 Eng Flame Out” procedure were not too far from the normal decel/descent speeds, I’ll hazard a guess (and that is all it is) that the glide distance from FL600, with no thrust, would have been about 150nm, giving a glide ratio of around 15:1. |

Thank you for the Instrument Panel image that I have now added to my collection. What is the Yellow Arc on the Mach metre that starts at about M1.12? Do you remember if you had a signifigant headwind at that stage? I notice that the G/S is 1,139kts was this fairly standard for an East-West flight? (DUH me. Just read the fastest crossing was an east-west direction. Winds must have been quite favorable) I am now guessing the displayed G/S would be fairly typical, plus or minus a bit. The Glide Ratio, even if it is a highly educated guess, is impressive. I would not have expected it to have been about the same as a B747. How many more times is this Lady going to surprise me with her performance. Also notice the ball is slightly off to the left even though it is still inside the lines. Was this normal or does it need a tad more rudder trim? Can't imagine it is really out of balance.

ChristiaanJ thanks for the CoG diagram. That I am still getting my head around. There is a large range at the bottom and top of the speed range but fairly narrow in the mid speed range. Seems like 165T was a less complex balancing act than it was at 105T. The center rear fuselage gear unit, what was that for? I have seen it deployed on many occasions but I can't for the life of me remember if it was during T/O or LDG however it didn't seem to be extended every time the aeroplane flew. Was this used during loading so she didn't accidently "rotate" at the ramp or to avoid a tailstrike during LDG? I can't imagine an over rotate during T/O. And a big Thank You to Bellerophon for sharing his knowledge with this thread. |

On the ITVV Concorde DVD the Captain explains that during the cruise climb at mach 2 the auto throttles were armed and would be used as required. Then during descent the throttles were gradually pulled back whilst the autopilot was given an IAS of I think 350 knots. Therefore the plane would have to descend to maintain that speed. He explained that the power settings were chosen to ensure that there was sufficent cooling etc.
My query is if an autoland was to be undertaken was the auto throttle system able to maintain the required landing speed or would the pilot have to manage the throttles? I guess that decreasing or increasing the pitch to control speed when on the glide slope would not be a good idea. Thanks again Nick |

You had to stop and look.

I have loved aeroplanes since I was very young - I genuinely understood Bernouli's principle when I was about nine - and I always looked at aeroplanes, indeed I still do. But most of the time, when the engine note was obviously a 747 or 727 (noisey!) or some such, I would perhaps concentrate on what I was supposed to be doing. But in the early evening, the absolutely inimitable sound of 593s would draw the eyes of nearly everyone in our area. We saw her every day and yet we all looked. Always. Extraordinary. Not being in the flying profession, I only have two Concorde stories of my own. Back before the M25 was completed and it stopped at Poyle, I would take the opportunity to use what became the Poyle northbound on ramp as a 'plane spotters' place. One evening I stopped in the gathering dusk and got out to watch a few planes. 737s and 757s abounded as the light faded, leaving a broad, light blue band across the horizon, tinged with peach and little colour anywhere else. Then I heard her on her way and the old heart beat a bit quicker. Suddenly she was up and passing and my mind's eye took the photograph I always wanted and now will never get. Concorde, silhouetted against the horizon, the cabin lights just visible, but the four, electric blue reheat exhausts - including shock diamonds - the only other colour in the monochrome image. Unforgettable. The second was day time. I was parking my car in the north car park - when it was basically all the way down one side of 27R. On my way, I think, to Stockholm Arlander, I was ignoring the succession of 'light iron' going by very close. Again, I heard her light up and just stood and waited. Fabulous sight of Concorde, just rotating as she passed me and climbing away to the west trailing thunder ..... and every car in the north car park sounding their tribute when the reheat set off their alarms. You just had to look - every time. Roger. |

Mr Vortex
An ejection was recommended because it was possible, not that was necessarily impossible to land a Draken dead stick. F-16s have done a number of them, I witnessed one at KTPA. There was a video of the HUD view of one at NAS Glenview, IL. To your question, it would depend on distance to go to the airport, glide ratio (high but probably not terribly worse than any conventional airliner) and most importantly the capability of the RAT providing hydraulic power. M2dude , any idea of the min IAS for the RAT to provide the juice and hydraulics? Would it be as low as Vapp minus some margin? GF |

Best glide angle for Concorde is in the order of 1:10, so with an multiple failure at 40,000ft (7.5 miles) your "nearest airport" would have to be well within a distance of 75 miles. (BTW, I think somebody earlier already mentioned that a large part of the actual descent from top-of-descent was with the engines barely above idle, so that it was much like a glide. It was during the final hold, approach and landing, that it was preferable to have a few engines left.....) Four-engine surges have happened a few times during flight testing, but I don't think there ever has been a four-engine flameout. Re the SAAB Draken, I would think a dead-stick landing would be possible, but only IF you could arrive 'overhead' at about 10,000ft and IF you were well aware of the horrendous sink rate 'on the back of the drag curve' once you committed to the final approach and landing. Even the F-104G, not known for its gliding qualities, could be and has been landed dead-stick - there is a section on the subject in the flight manual. On the 104, things were further complicated by the fact that without an engine you also lost the "blown flaps", so your landing speed was a lot higher. In Western Europe, with its densely populated areas on the one hand, and a lot of airbases on the other hand, there were certainly cases where you thought twice before 'punching out'. CJ |

A lot depends on how fast you were flying. You can get pretty good values of Lift/Drag ratio (that defines the potential glide slope with all engines operating, if that is not a contradiction in terms) from the Concorde B pages of the Concorde SST site. The actual glide slope with engines out would have been a lot worse than those numbers because of windmilling and (supersonically) intake spillage drag. Nowhere near any subsonic values! Clive |

Wow, what a great thread! I started reading it yesterday and am up to page 19 so far! I flew on the wonderful white bird once, in 1999, a Manchester - round the bay at Mach 2 - Paris flight in G-BOAD. And the wonderful thing was I did the entire flight, push back at Manchester to parking at Paris, in the jump seat! What a fabulous experience - thank you Roger!
Here's a picture I took as the aircraft turne left towards the French coast: One memory is climbing through 50,000 feet over South Wales before turning down the Bristol Channel. It was glorious August day and I had a great view forward past the captain and particularly out of the left window. The speed over the ground at Mach 0.95 seemed noticably faster than a subsonic jet, and that view was breathtaking! The Bristol Channel was edged in golden yellow beaches, and I could see right across south west England to the English Channel. In my headset the controller called another aircraft; "Speedbird 123 if you look up now you will see you are about to be overflown by Concorde". I leaned towards my side window and there was Speedbird 123, a tiny scurrying beetle miles below us. From this height the fair-weather cu looked as if they were on the ground - like small white splodges from some celestial artist's paint brush. We cruised at Mach 2 and 60,000' over the Bay for a while and the pax came forward to view the flightdeck. I was amazed how patient was the supernumery captain who was answering the same questions over and over again was (the flight crew were too busy to chat). The approach to CDG looked far steeper than other airliner approaches I had witnessed from the flight deck; more like one of my glide approaches in the Chipmunk! But it wasn't, of course, as we were following the 3 degree glideslope. I guess it was an illusion brought about by the steep pitch angle. I remember the captain resting his hands on the throttles as they shuttled back and forth under autothrottle control, the smooth touchdown, the 'landing' of the nosewheel followed by full forward stick, and thinking "we'll never make that turn off". Then on came the powerful reverse and the brakes, I was thrust foreward in my harness, the speed disappeared, and we made the turnoff easily! Oh, and that stange bouncy ride in the flight deck on the ground as the long nose forward of the nosewheel flexed over every joint in the taxyway. So bad at times it was difficult to take a photograph! What an experience! I have a question which I hope hasn't been answered in the pages (20 to this one) that I've yet to read. From an earlier post I understand that the anti-skid used a rotational reference from the unbraked nosewheels to compare to the rotation of the mains, and that with gear down in the air a substiute nose-wheel referance is supplied which, because the mains are not yet rotating, allows the anti-skid to keep the brakes off. But what happens when the mains touch down with the nosewheels still high in the air? What (if anything) inhibits wheel braking until the nosewhels are on the ground (and therefore rotating)? Also, this thread started with a question about the lack of an APU. When Concorde was parked could the aircon and cabin lighting be powered by external electrical power, or did the cabin aircon without engine power require an external 'aircon unit' to be connected? Or was aircon simply not available without at least one engine running? And one for Landlady or any other CC. If a table top was set up between the cabins during service, how did the 'front' crew service the first 2 rows of the rear cabin? Being 'up front' for my entire flight, I missed out on the cabin service. But superb though I'm sure that was, under the circumstances it's not something I regret!

create_table¶

Data_Reduction.GAVRT.mysql.
create_table
(database, name, keys)¶ Creates a table with the specified column names and types.
Here’s an example:
name = "customers" keys = {'name': 'CHAR(20 NOT NULL'), 'job': 'VARCHAR(20)', 'sex': "ENUM('M','F')", 'hobbies': "SET('chess','sailing','reading','knitting')", 'birth': 'DATE', 'balance': 'FLOAT'} create_table(someDatabase,name,keys)
When a column name conflicts with a MySQL reserved word, the name is put in backward quotes. This keeps the column name possibilities from being too restricted, e.g., dec.
This exists from a time prior to when I started using ‘tedia2sql’ to create tables and may still be useful in simple situations.
:param database : the database for the new table :param name : the table name :param keys : a dictionary with the column names and formats.


Earlier this week, I was taking a stroll around Festival Marina, Dubai Festival City. There’s a few new restaurants open there but this one place caught my eye: Chocopologie. Needless to say, the name alone was intriguing enough to get me in there within 5 minutes.
After being shown around by a friendly waitress, I promised myself I would go there for brunch since they served all-day breakfast! (How exciting is that?! I love breakfast food!)
So within the next few days, I was craving for some french toast. I usually make my own but I do get my extra lazy days when I’d prefer to just sit down at a nice place, order it and have it sitting right in front of me just waiting to be wolfed down. Okay, enough ranting now..
I told my friend Hamna (Twitter Handle: @hamna_), who is a fellow chocolate-eating zombie, about Chocopologie and we decided to have brunch there. We were welcomed and seated by our waiter Ray, who was very helpful and friendly.
Hamna had the omelette stuffed with tomatoes and cheese with a side salad
I had the french toast with maple syrup and a side of strawberry salad.
The verdict: YUM! That is all.
Ray was also kind enough to offer us some chocolates to try.
On the left: Patricia — dark chocolate on the outside, white chocolate inside with sweet mexican & ancho chilli filling.
Top: Lauren — milk chocolate covered in walnuts with a pear ganache filling.
Right: Kelly — 64% dark chocolate with a strawberry and lemon tart filling (my personal favorite).
Bottom: Charlotte (named after the founder’s sister) — milk chocolate with a basil and apricot filling.
They were divine, to say the least
Interestingly enough, most of the chocolates are named after women. Ray informed us that they were women the founder had met on his travels around the world (ahem) in search for unique ingredients to use to make his chocolates.
The interior of the café has a Victorian theme, not my personal favorite style but quite interesting for a café.
Here’s some more pictures of what they have to offer from chocolates and pastries.
These truffles are one of the world’s most expensive chocolates.
I’ll definitely be visiting them again soon to have a taste of some of their unique pastries. Till then, I’ll settle for drooling over the photos.
