Transculturation is a term coined by Cuban anthropologist Fernando Ortiz in 1947 to describe the phenomenon of merging and converging cultures, as a contribution to the study of Cuba and to the general field of Social Sciences. Transculturation reflects the natural tendency of people to resolve conflicts over time, rather than exacerbating them.
Transculturation covers war, ethnic conflict, racism, multiculturalism, cross-culturalism, interracial marriage, and any other of a number of contexts that deal with more than one culture. Where transculturation impacts ethnicity and ethnic issues the term "ethnoconvergence" is sometimes used.
Processes of transculturation become more complex within the context of globalization, given the multiple layers of abstraction that permeate everyday experiences. A current example is the spreading of American cultural values in other parts of the world. This can include dress, music, language, and other cultural elements. Today, the media is an established method of transculturation, since music, movies, newspapers, and other media often transmit cultural information.
Attitudes developed during the colonial period continue to impact the lives of many people in the world today, such colonial projects as those of the Spanish, French, and British spread language, and shared ideals, around much of the globe. Despite all the negative experiences of colonialism, communication and transportation infrastructures built during colonial times have brought more and more people into contact with each other.
Ethnocentrism is judging another culture solely by the values and standards of one's own culture. Ethnocentric individuals judge other groups relative to their own ethnic group or culture, especially with concern for language, behavior, customs, and religion. These ethnic distinctions and subdivisions serve to define each ethnicity's unique cultural identity. Ethnocentrism may be overt or subtle, and while it is considered a natural proclivity of human psychology, it has developed a generally negative connotation.
Cultural globalization refers to the transmission of ideas, meanings and values around the world in such a way as to extend and intensify social relations. This process is marked by the common consumption of cultures that have been diffused by the Internet, popular culture media, and international travel. This has added to processes of commodity exchange and colonization which have a longer history of carrying cultural meaning around the globe.
Related to nationality, ethnicity, religion, social class, generation, locality or any kind of social group that has its own distinct culture. Cultural identity links a person to their heritage can help them to identify with others who have the same traditions and basic belief systems.
Enculturation is the process by which people learn the requirements of their surrounding culture and acquire values and behaviours appropriate or necessary in that culture. As part of this process, the influences that limit, direct, or shape the individual include parents, other adults, and peers.

The Norwegean Use
Johan Vaalar was a brilliant student in childhood at what is now refered to as the university of Oslo, and quickly became a prominant figure in the world of Scandinavian inventors.
Johan quickly found a european market which begged for easy access to paper bindings, one that with his machinist background found easy to fill.
Johan presented his two turn design for the paperclip to a German patents office, before promptly dying later that year (1910).
Time passed as it tends to, and the American "gem" clip overtook Johans inferior design. A world war began and ended, automation florished in the peaceful years before the secound world war began.
The German war machine began its firm march into the neighboring lands of Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Denmark, Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg, and France.
Annexing and conquering within a years time, an empire of its own, the planet was asked to choose its side, German, or dead.
The time to answer Hitlers question came to the nation of Norway in april of 1940, one month before the fall of France, in the form of an overwhelming invasion force, the Norwegean king evacuated his country without word, moments before his people decided to peacefully surrender, choosing German over dead.
It was a bleak time for the Norwegeans, overthrown and without leadership, they were left to refit railways for German artillery, allow cobblestone roads to be decimated by lines of German tanks, and even the capture and execution of their Jewish population.
However, between the parades and executions, occasionally came the memories of duty, of country and the king which had abandoned them, some nords pledged to resist.
One such unit was the Norwegean 6th Divison, a team of soldiers who refused to give into nazi demands, making brutal raids, before disappearing into the winterswept mountains to the far north.
These brave men, women, and children participated in huge efforts to shuttle Jews across the neutral Swedish border, disrupt nazi supplies, and to remind their exiled king that so long as he breathed, so to did the life of Norway.
These resistance fighters found out quickly ways to survive, from night raids, to snow covered snipers.
In cities, the resistance walked side by side German occupants, dressed in civilian clothing, keeping tabs on military movements, for combat ready resistance members laying low in the cold.
These resistance members required a way to communicate silently weather they had been recruited by the resistance, without arousing German suspicion, and thus, Johan Vaalar was written into Norwegean legend.
Rumors drifted between the people about the infamous snow snipers, it started with whispers of some brilliant strategist, or rouge elite unit left by the king.
They were a hidden faction, lead and organized by a brilliant unseen genius, a man just famous enough to pique the ears of Norwegean factory workers that may have heard of his company, a man named Johan Vaalar.
For Norway, the "inventor" of the paperclip became a supernatural figure, and a symbol of Norwegean anti-facism, so much so that resistance members,
or any opposition of German occupation, would frequently wear Vaalar clips at their collar to communicate passive resistance to fellow Norwegeans.
It became a tradition so well known in German occupied areas that the collar worn paperclip could be found across europe, in places like the Warsaw rebellion in Poland, and other political movements to follow the war.
The French Use
In France, resistance was more open, huge swaths of the French army remained after the nations political surrender, and one general took it upon himself to keep the fight alive, his name was Charles de Gaulle, leader of the French resistance.
The war ended for Germany in 1945, but not for General De Gaulle, quickly he set himself up as chairmen of democratic reconstruction in France and ruled for around 2 years, before fading into the background.
That is until 1958, when the French president at the time decided he wanted to rewrite the French constitution, asking French patriot and war hero De Gaulle to participate in its redrafting seemed the right thing to do.
De Gaulle noticed a collapase in French leadership, and found his political party "The Rally of the French People" to have put him forth as candidate for the presidancy.
Even 14 years after the fall of Nazi Germany, occasionally video of De Gaulles speeches before his inevidable election to the presidency, revealed the stoic paperclip at his collar, alongside a pin of the French flag.

SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE (1998)
A film review by Steve Kong Edited by Steve Kong Copyright 1999 Steve Kong
Shakespeare in Love is a film that I love to love. There are films which I like so much that my reviews are shorter than usually because a film review is half criticism and half pointing out the what to look for. If the film is as good as Shakespeare in Love, there's not a lot to criticize, just good things to point out. Shakespeare in Love is a perfect mix of different genres: a romance, a comedy, and a drama. It all works out to make Shakespeare in Love one of 1998s best films.
There are two battling theatres in Shakespeare in Love; the Rose Theatre which has the fairly green screenwriter Shakespeare and the Curtain Theatre that has the ever-popular Marlowe (Rupert Everett).
Shakespeare (Joseph Fiennes) is working on Romeo and Juliet (which has the working title of "Romeo and Ethel, the Pirate's Daughter"). The owner of the Rose Theatre, Henslowe (Geoffrey Rush), is badly in need of a play to bring his theatre out of the rubbles, to pay his debts, and to save his feet (you'll learn early on in the film what I mean by the last part). Henslowe's secret weapon is Shakespeare. Though at the time Shakespeare is nothing but a playwright with writer's block. The owner of the Curtain Theatre thinks that Shakespeare is an up-and-coming playwright and wants to have Shakespeare writing plays for the Curtain Theatre. Shakespeare forgoes working for the Curtain Theatre after a startling discovery. He falls into a bit of depression after making the discovery and his writer's block gets even worse – that is until he meets the daughter of a rich man, Viola De Lesseps (Gwyneth Paltrow). But, as stories go, it turns out that Viola is going to be married in two weeks. What is Shakespeare to do?
Is Shakespeare in Love based on a true story? It really doesn't matter. The film is so entertaining that it could stand by itself. The humour in Shakespeare in Love is off-the-wall and screwball. There are many Shakespeare references, so many that I couldn't catch them all. If you've read any Shakespeare, there will be some Shakespeare references in this film that will make you chuckle.
John Madden directs Shakespeare in Love. Kudos to Madden for putting together such a wonderful film based on the script by Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard. The script is a magnificent piece of work that shows just how well a movie can be written. Kudos to Norman and Stoppard. As for performances in the film: They are all top-notch. Paltrow is effervescent onscreen. Fiennes is the perfect cast for Shakespeare. And Geoffrey Rush, whom I did not recognize until I saw the credits, is hilarious. The supporting players are all wonderful. Kudos to everyone in the film for their all around brilliant performances. Look for Ben Afflect in the film, his presence is amusing.
 Don't Miss Shakespeare in Love. And take a significant other with you to see this romantic and sweet film.

News
As of May 1st, 2023, version 0.4 of daScript has been released. The development team is currently working on the next major release, which will include a fully featured JIT compiler. This JIT compiler is currently available as a preview.
daScript now happily runs in the web browser. Check it out.
We now have an official blog
November 18th, 2021: version 0.3 released.
September 5th, 2020: version 0.2 released.
24 August 2020: A lot of documentation has been added.
tio.run sandbox
added.
28 October 2019: Benchmarks has been updated. All lang compilers were built in LLVM8.0, architecture AVX.
15 August 2019: daScript site has been released, check it out.
Overview
daScript is a high-level programming language that features strong static typing. It is designed to provide high performance and serves as an embeddable 'scripting' language for C++ applications that require fast and reliable performance, such as games or back end/servers. Additionally, it functions effectively as a standalone programming language.
daScript is:
- Extremely fast programming language that can rival compiled or JIT languages even in interpreter mode. It consistently outperforms dynamically interpreted scripting languages such as Lua. When used in AOT mode, daScript is often faster than naively written C++ due to its SSE-friendly POD-types, and it even surpasses some of the best JIT VMs like V8 or LuaJIT. As a result, there's no need to rewrite your daScript code in C++ to optimize your application.
- Safe and versatile programming language that provides all the benefits of static typing. Many errors that would break an application in runtime in languages like Lua or JavaScript won't even compile in daScript. Additionally, due to its support for generics, type inference, and macros, daScript is easy and fluid to use. Safety is a fundamental pillar of daScript's design, making it safer in many cases than languages like C++ or Java.
- Real embedded programming language that requires no external dependencies other than a C++17 compiler. Its interop capabilities are both super easy to use and safe, as is expected from any embedded scripting language that's meant to call native code.
daScript offers a wide range of features like:
- amazing performance
- strong static typing
- instant hot reload
- Ruby-like blocks
- semantic indenting
- lexical scoping
- high performance interpretation
- Ahead-of-Time compilation (optimization for release build)
- generators
- generics and type inference
- macros
- optional types (i.e. pointers)
- native HW friendly POD types
- C++ friendly and fast interop
- semi-manual memory management
-
fast and easy-to-reset execution context, allowing automatic burst
free memory management for stored procedures
no memory leaks with no GC/reference counting cost. - extendable type and function system
- cheap multi-threading support - explicit separation of execution context and code context.
- Open Source BSD licence
-
powerful embedding API
- e.g. functions can be defined by scripts or in C++
- e.g. objects can fully exist in the Context or be bound to native code
- and more
daScript takes inspiration from languages like Python, Ruby, Kotlin, and Haxe when it comes to its explicitness and readability. However, it is also designed to be extremely fast, making it an ideal choice for performance-critical applications.
A Visual Studio Code extension is available for daScript, providing comprehensive support for the language. This extension offers features such as code diagnostics, code completion, code navigation, hints, and more. Additionally, it provides a rich debugging environment, allowing developers to easily debug their daScript code. It also includes a profiler for measuring and optimizing code performance. You can find this extension on the Visual Studio Code Marketplace at the following link: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=profelis.dascript-plugin.
What Does it look like?
daScript's syntax is reminiscent of (Typed) Python, while its static strong typed nature is similar to ML or Zig. Its POD types are closely aligned with hardware/machine types. Additionally, the language makes use of type inference, as can be seen in the following Fibonacci code snippet.
def fibR(n)
if (n < 2)
return n
else
return fibR(n - 1) + fibR(n - 2)
def fibI(n)
var last = 0
var cur = 1
for i in range(0, n-1)
let tmp = cur
cur += last
last = tmp
return cur
Also, for those who for some reason prefer curly brackets over Python-style indenting, it is also possible to write:
def fibR(n) {
if (n < 2) {
return n;
} else {
return fibR(n - 1) + fibR(n - 2);
}
}
def fibI(n) {
var last = 0;
var cur = 1;
for i in range(0, n-1); {
let tmp = cur;
cur += last;
last = tmp;
}
return cur;
}
(Note that within curly brackets semicolons (;) are required to separate statements).
Development state
daScript's current version is 0.4, and it's already being used in production projects at Gaijin Entertainment. Until the release of version 1.0, there will be no patches or fixes for older versions. Instead, all updates and fixes will be made available exclusively in the master branch.
daScript has been successfully compiled and run on a wide range of platforms, including Windows (x86 & x64), Linux (x64), macOS, Xbox One, Xbox One Series X, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android, and WebAssembly.
Has been tested with the following compilers with C++17 support:
MS Visual C++ 17, 19, and 22 (x86 & x64)
Linux GCC
LLVM 7 and above
To compile, daScript requires support for C++17.
Performance
As an interpreted language, daScript typically outperforms everything, including the blazing fast LuaJIT.
daScript particularly excels in interop with C++ functions, providing an easy and seamless experience when it comes to integrating new functions and types.
The overhead of data-oriented processing in interpretation mode in daScript is comparable to C++ in Debug mode, as demonstrated by the Particles sample.
As a compiled Ahead-of-Time language, daScript is significantly faster than both LuaJIT and Chrome JS, both of which have extremely fast Just-in-Time compilers.
In terms of performance, daScript is nearly on par with naive C++ (compiled with clang-cl llvm 8.0.1 with all optimizations), typically differing by no more than 10%. In some cases, daScript can even outperform C++.
It is worth noting that unlike Just-in-Time compilation, Ahead-of-Time compilation can be used on any platform, including those with signed binary executables like iOS or consoles.
All times are in milliseconds, all results are measured as best-out-of-20 runs on Intel Core i5.
All samples for all languages in comparison are available in GitHub
You can also compare performance online in a sandbox:
Particles in interpreted daScript vs. C++.
vs. Particles in interpreted LuaJit.
(These tests above are straightforward copy-paste of examples in
GitHub
running on some virtualized CPU in some cloud, so only relative performance matters. Your mileage may vary.)

KANSAS CITY A film review by Alexander F. Relyea Copyright 1996 Alexander F. Relyea
There are two ways to view Robert Altman's KANSAS CITY. It can be seen as either a politically motivated kidnapping with a jazz backdrop or a movie about Kansas City jazz in the 1930s with a little local color. This is unfortunate, because neither story is done particularly well. Any number of context clues in the film tell the observant viewer that KANSAS CITY takes place on the first Monday and Tuesday of November, 1933, a month before prohibition was repealed. Nevertheless, the alcohol is free-flowing in one of the many historical inconsistencies in the film. The most obvious of these are the fact that KANSAS CITY has exactly zero homeless people, and that all of the "colored" people are very wealthy; even the Western Union custodian is well-off.
KANSAS CITY stars Jennifer Jason Leigh (GEORGIA) as Blondie, a telegraph operator who kidnaps Miranda Richardson (THE CRYING GAME), the wife of a powerful local politician, in order to convince some colored gangsters, led by Harry Belafonte (WHITE MAN'S BURDEN), to release her husband Johnny (Dermot Mulroney, THE TRIGGER EFFECT). A nearly incomprehensible sequence of flashbacks helps Blondie explain her dilemma to Mrs. Stilton (Richardson). Apparently Johnny had conspired with a cabbie with the unfortunate name of Blue Green (played by an actor with the even more unfortunate name of Martin Martin) to rob a rich black gambler. They get caught, and Blondie goes down to Belafonte's club to try to get him back. She gets turned away and goes to kidnap Mrs. Stilton and win Johnny's freedom. Those who can follow this sequence are rewarded with the unfolding of Blondie's desperate caper as she drags poor Mrs. Stilton around Kansas City almost haphazardly. These images are inter-cut with laughable scenes of Belafonte trying in vain to act tough and scenes of the twenty-four-hour jazz band that plays at his club. The jazz is nice, and it is featured in about ninety percent of the scenes, either as background music, or as the focus of the scene, but it is hardly something to base a movie on, and Altman doesn't bother to give any background information that would provide a solid foundation. He doesn't develop the characters of any of the musicians except for a high school saxophonist who appears to have nothing better to do than watch the band in twelve hour stretches. KANSAS CITY plods on with plot twists that tend to be inconsequential or too confusing to follow to extend it to its full length of a hundred ten minutes, and then has a gutless ending. When one of the characters says "You know what I did today? I forgot to vote.", we can sympathize, for it is hard to remember anything more important happening in the film.
On the whole, the acting was solid. Mulroney stands out as a small time hood unable to fully realize that he has entered the big leagues. Leigh is solid, if a little annoying. Belafonte does his best, but he comes across as more of a retired gangster, and is best when he relates his old war stories. He is sadly miscast. Richardson takes Mrs. Stilton's opium habit and plays the stock character of "Drug addict". Scarcely a scene goes by when she doesn't dope up and stagger. Surely a woman this addicted had professional help, even in the Great Depression. Other than that, the movie seems to depend on gratuitous violence and nudity, as well as introducing characters who are almost completely irrelevant to the plot. Steve Buscemi (FARGO) is an excellent example of this, as in his two scenes he is rough with his wife and beating some guy with a baseball bat, both for no apparent reason. Before long, anyone watching KANSAS CITY is going to wish for something to happen either to return to the jazz or to end the film. It is curious why Altman calls his film KANSAS CITY since it could take place in any city large enough to have a jazz club. There is no discernible local flavor, and we only know that it is Kansas City because characters say so. The screenplay and direction conspire to make KANSAS CITY too confusing and remote to cause any feelings towards any of the characters, and I am not really sure what Altman intended to do with this film. Nevertheless, Mulroney and Leigh's performances and the wonderful soundtrack make this film worth ** out of ****.

Hi,
just found the time to migrate from an EmonTX to a (Kickstarter) EmonPi, and I have a query re EmonGLCD code. Currently running SolarPV.ino, and it decides whether it's getting an energy packet from the TX or a time update from Emonbase by checking the source node:
if (node_id == 10) {emontx = *(PayloadTX*) rf12_data; last_emontx = millis();}
if (node_id == 15)
{
RTC.adjust(DateTime(2013, 1, 1, rf12_data[1], rf12_data[2], rf12_data[3]));
With the EmonPi, both packets will I believe both have node id = 5. Before I go hacking the code around, is there an existing preferred fix for this? I've searched this forum but haven't found anything.
I also ran into the bug of Emonhub splitting a node name into multiple lines when there's only one variable sent ( http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/11322 ) but found a different workaround, just changed the name to a single letter "T"
Thanks!
Re: EmonGLCD - changing from EmonTX system to Emonpi
Unfortunately that's not going to work, Previously with the emonTx (node 10) the emonGLCD was listening in on the transmision from the emonTx to the emonBase, when using an emonPi instead of the emonTx, there is no transmission to listen to, plus if it did transmit the data as node 5 as well as the time as node 5 the emonGLCD wouldn't be able to use the node id to distinguish the time from the data.
The emonPi is able to transmit the time and you could extend this to send one packet including both the time and the data, which would also require some minor edits in the emonGLCD sketch. Or you will need to edit emonPi to repeat the locally captured data over the rfm network with a different id. either an edit to the emonPi sketch to just broadcast the data as it passes it to the Pi over serial or in emonhub to TX the dat it gets from the emonpi board or by "fetching" the required data from emoncms in emonhub and TX over rfm.
The last one IMO is the better option, but any will do the job and all will require some coding, with the last one the coding can be all done in emonhub so no sketches to upload.
Paul
Re: EmonGLCD - changing from EmonTX system to Emonpi
Derek - I have an emonPi and the emonGLCD but I am running a hacked up version of the HomeEnergyMonitor.ino code. I get my power and time from the emonPi (node 5). I do not own the emonTX. I changed the HomeEnergyMonitor.ino code Payload to accept the time and power (and energy).
And I changed to the EmonHubJeeInterfacer.py code in the "def action(self):" area to send both the time and the power (and energy) to the emonGLCD.
The above was with the help of many others on this forum! How to send feed data from emoncms to emonGLCD?
Hope this helps - Jon
Re: EmonGLCD - changing from EmonTX system to Emonpi
Thanks for the quick response guys,
I'll probably put the time in the main payload - looks as if I'm doing some recoding!
In the meantime I plan to leave the old emonbase powered up on node 15 just to provide a temporary time signal...
regards


HTML Geolocation
The W3C Geolocation API is an effort by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to standardize an interface to retrieve the geographical location information for a client-side device.
The most common sources of location information are IP address, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth MAC address, radio-frequency identification (RFID), Wi-Fi connection location, or device Global Positioning System (GPS) and GSM/CDMA cell IDs.
Geolocation for mobile devices
Some popular mobile devices — like the iPhone and Android phones — support two methods of figuring out where you are. The first method triangulates your position based on your relative proximity to different cellular towers operated by your phone carrier. This method is fast and doesn’t require any dedicated GPS hardware, but it only gives you a rough idea of where you are. Depending on how many cell towers are in your area, “a rough idea” could be as little as one city block or as much as a kilometer in every direction.
The second method actually uses dedicated GPS hardware on your device to talk to dedicated GPS positioning satellites that are orbiting the Earth. GPS can usually pinpoint your location within a few meters. The downside is that the dedicated GPS chip on your device draws a lot of power, so phones and other general purpose mobile devices usually turn off the chip until it’s needed. That means there will be a startup delay while the chip is initializing its connection with the GPS satellites in the sky.
Using Geolocation
The geolocation API centers around navigator.geolocation which is a new property on the global navigator object.
A simple example where we only call navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(showPosition) via a script to get coordinates:
We can specify a second parameter on the getCurrentPosition function to handle errors:
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(show_map, handle_error)
by using standard error codes:
error.PERMISSION_DENIED, error.POSITION_UNAVAILABLE, error.TIMEOUT, error.UNKNOWN_ERROR
The getCurrentPosition function has an optional third argument, a PositionOptions object. There are three properties you can set in a PositionOptions object. All the properties are optional.
- The enableHighAccuracy property is exactly what it sounds like. If true, and the device can support it, and the user consents to sharing their exact location, then the device will try to provide it.
- The timeout property is the number of milliseconds your web application is willing to wait for a position.
- The maximumAge property allows the device to answer immediately with a cached position.
Using Google Maps
The watchPosition function has the same structure as getCurrentPosition. It takes two callback functions, a required one for success and an optional one for error conditions, and it can also take an optional PositionOptions object that has all the same properties.

Themes
Jekyll has an extensive theme system that allows you to leverage community-maintained templates and styles to customize your site’s presentation. Jekyll themes specify plugins and package up assets, layouts, includes, and stylesheets in a way that can be overridden by your site’s content.
Understanding gem-based themes
When you create a new Jekyll site (by running the jekyll new <PATH>
command), Jekyll installs a site that uses a gem-based theme called Minima.
With gem-based themes, some of the site’s directories (such as the assets
, _layouts
, _includes
, and _sass
directories) are stored in the theme’s gem, hidden from your immediate view. Yet all of the necessary directories will be read and processed during Jekyll’s build process.
In the case of Minima, you see only the following files in your Jekyll site directory:
├── Gemfile
├── Gemfile.lock
├── _config.yml
├── _posts
│ └── 2016-12-04-welcome-to-jekyll.markdown
├── about.md
└── index.md
The Gemfile
and Gemfile.lock
files are used by Bundler to keep track of the required gems and gem versions you need to build your Jekyll site.
Gem-based themes make it easy for theme developers to make updates available to anyone who has the theme gem. When there’s an update, theme developers push the update to RubyGems.
If you have the theme gem, you can (if you desire) run bundle update
to update all gems in your project. Or you can run bundle update <THEME>
, replacing <THEME>
with the theme name, such as minima
, to just update the theme gem. Any new files or updates the theme developer has made (such as to stylesheets or includes) will be pulled into your project automatically.
The goal of gem-based themes is to allow you to get all the benefits of a robust, continually updated theme without having all the theme’s files getting in your way and over-complicating what might be your primary focus: creating content.
Overriding theme defaults
Jekyll themes set default layouts, includes, and stylesheets. However, you can override any of the theme defaults with your own site content.
To replace layouts or includes in your theme, make a copy in your _layouts
or _includes
directory of the specific file you wish to modify, or create the file from scratch giving it the same name as the file you wish to override.
For example, if your selected theme has a page
layout, you can override the theme’s layout by creating your own page
layout in the _layouts
directory (that is, _layouts/page.html
).
To locate a theme’s files on your computer:
-
Run
bundle show
followed by the name of the theme’s gem, e.g.,bundle show minima
for Jekyll’s default theme.This returns the location of the gem-based theme files. For example, the Minima theme’s files might be located in
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/minima-2.1.0
on macOS. -
Open the theme’s directory in Finder or Explorer:
# On MacOS open $(bundle show minima) # On Windows explorer /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/minima-2.1.0
A Finder or Explorer window opens showing the theme’s files and directories. The Minima theme gem contains these files:
├── LICENSE.txt ├── README.md ├── _includes │ ├── disqus_comments.html │ ├── footer.html │ ├── google-analytics.html │ ├── head.html │ ├── header.html │ ├── icon-github.html │ ├── icon-github.svg │ ├── icon-twitter.html │ └── icon-twitter.svg ├── _layouts │ ├── default.html │ ├── home.html │ ├── page.html │ └── post.html ├── _sass │ ├── minima │ │ ├── _base.scss │ │ ├── _layout.scss │ │ └── _syntax-highlighting.scss │ └── minima.scss └── assets └── main.scss
With a clear understanding of the theme’s files, you can now override any theme file by creating a similarly named file in your Jekyll site directory.
Let’s say, for a second example, you want to override Minima’s footer. In your Jekyll site, create an _includes
folder and add a file in it called footer.html
. Jekyll will now use your site’s footer.html
file instead of the footer.html
file from the Minima theme gem.
To modify any stylesheet you must take the extra step of also copying the main sass file (_sass/minima.scss
in the Minima theme) into the _sass
directory in your site’s source.
Jekyll will look first to your site’s content before looking to the theme’s defaults for any requested file in the following folders:
/assets
/_layouts
/_includes
/_sass
Note that making copies of theme files will prevent you from receiving any theme updates on those files. An alternative, to continue getting theme updates on all stylesheets, is to use higher specificity CSS selectors in your own additional, originally named CSS files.
Refer to your selected theme’s documentation and source repository for more information on what files you can override.
Converting gem-based themes to regular themes
Suppose you want to get rid of the gem-based theme and convert it to a regular theme, where all files are present in your Jekyll site directory, with nothing stored in the theme gem.
To do this, copy the files from the theme gem’s directory into your Jekyll site directory. (For example, copy them to /myblog
if you created your Jekyll site at /myblog
. See the previous section for details.)
Then you must tell Jekyll about the plugins that were referenced by the theme. You can find these plugins in the theme’s gemspec file as runtime dependencies. If you were converting the Minima theme, for example, you might see:
spec.add_runtime_dependency "jekyll-feed", "~> 0.9"
spec.add_runtime_dependency "jekyll-seo-tag", "~> 2.1"
You should include these references in the Gemfile
in one of two ways.
You could list them individually in both Gemfile
and _config.yml
.
# ./Gemfile
gem "jekyll-feed", "~> 0.9"
gem "jekyll-seo-tag", "~> 2.1"
# ./_config.yml
plugins:
- jekyll-feed
- jekyll-seo-tag
Or you could list them explicitly as Jekyll plugins in your Gemfile, and not update _config.yml
, like this:
# ./Gemfile
group :jekyll_plugins do
gem "jekyll-feed", "~> 0.9"
gem "jekyll-seo-tag", "~> 2.1"
end
Either way, don’t forget to bundle update
.
However, if you’re publishing on GitHub Pages you should update only your _config.yml
as GitHub Pages doesn’t load plugins via Bundler.
Finally, remove references to the theme gem in Gemfile
and configuration. For example, to remove minima
:
- Open
Gemfile
and removegem "minima", "~> 2.0"
. - Open
_config.yml
and removetheme: minima
.
Now bundle update
will no longer get updates for the theme gem.
Installing a gem-based theme
The jekyll new <PATH>
command isn’t the only way to create a new Jekyll site with a gem-based theme. You can also find gem-based themes online and incorporate them into your Jekyll project.
For example, search for jekyll theme on RubyGems to find other gem-based themes. (Note that not all themes are using jekyll-theme
as a convention in the theme name.)
To install a gem-based theme:
-
Add the theme to your site’s
Gemfile
:# ./Gemfile gem "jekyll-theme-awesome"
Or if you’ve started with the
jekyll new
command, replacegem "minima", "~> 2.0"
with your theme-gem:# ./Gemfile - gem "minima", "~> 2.0" + gem "jekyll-theme-awesome"
-
Install the theme:
bundle install
-
Add the following to your site’s
_config.yml
to activate the theme:theme: jekyll-theme-awesome
-
Build your site:
bundle exec jekyll serve
You can have multiple themes listed in your site’s Gemfile
, but only one theme can be selected in your site’s _config.yml
.
If you’re publishing your Jekyll site on GitHub Pages, note that GitHub Pages supports only some gem-based themes. See Supported Themes in GitHub’s documentation to see which themes are supported.
Creating a gem-based theme
If you’re a Jekyll theme developer (rather than just a consumer of themes), you can package up your theme in RubyGems and allow users to install it through Bundler.
If you’re unfamiliar with creating Ruby gems, don’t worry. Jekyll will help you scaffold a new theme with the new-theme
command. Run jekyll new-theme
with the theme name as an argument.
Here is an example:
jekyll new-theme jekyll-theme-awesome
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/_layouts
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/_includes
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/_sass
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/_layouts/page.html
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/_layouts/post.html
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/_layouts/default.html
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/Gemfile
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/jekyll-theme-awesome.gemspec
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/README.md
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/LICENSE.txt
initialize /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/.git
create /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/.gitignore
Your new Jekyll theme, jekyll-theme-awesome, is ready for you in /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome!
For help getting started, read /path/to/jekyll-theme-awesome/README.md.
Add your template files in the corresponding folders. Then complete the .gemspec
and the README files according to your needs.
Layouts and includes
Theme layouts and includes work just like they work in any Jekyll site. Place layouts in your theme’s /_layouts
folder, and place includes in your themes /_includes
folder.
For example, if your theme has a /_layouts/page.html
file, and a page has layout: page
in its YAML front matter, Jekyll will first look to the site’s _layouts
folder for the page
layout, and if none exists, will use your theme’s page
layout.
Assets
Any file in /assets
will be copied over to the user’s site upon build unless they have a file with the same relative path. You can ship any kind of asset here: SCSS, an image, a webfont, etc. These files behave like pages and static files in Jekyll:
- If the file has YAML front matter at the top, it will be rendered.
- If the file does not have YAML front matter, it will simply be copied over into the resulting site.
This allows theme creators to ship a default /assets/styles.scss
file which their layouts can depend on as /assets/styles.css
.
All files in /assets
will be output into the compiled site in the /assets
folder just as you’d expect from using Jekyll on your sites.
Stylesheets
Your theme’s stylesheets should be placed in your theme’s _sass
folder, again, just as you would when authoring a Jekyll site.
_sass
├── jekyll-theme-awesome.scss
Your theme’s styles can be included in the user’s stylesheet using the @import
directive.
@import "{{ site.theme }}";
Theme-gem dependencies3.5.0
Jekyll will automatically require all whitelisted runtime_dependencies
of your theme-gem even if they’re not explicitly included under the plugins
array in the site’s config file. (Note: whitelisting is only required when building or serving with the --safe
option.)
With this, the end-user need not keep track of the plugins required to be included in their config file for their theme-gem to work as intended.
Documenting your theme
Your theme should include a /README.md
file, which explains how site authors can install and use your theme. What layouts are included? What includes? Do they need to add anything special to their site’s configuration file?
Adding a screenshot
Themes are visual. Show users what your theme looks like by including a screenshot as /screenshot.png
within your theme’s repository where it can be retrieved programmatically. You can also include this screenshot within your theme’s documentation.
Previewing your theme
To preview your theme as you’re authoring it, it may be helpful to add dummy content in, for example, /index.html
and /page.html
files. This will allow you to use the jekyll build
and jekyll serve
commands to preview your theme, just as you’d preview a Jekyll site.
If you do preview your theme locally, be sure to add /_site
to your theme’s .gitignore
file to prevent the compiled site from also being included when you distribute your theme.
Publishing your theme
Themes are published via RubyGems.org. You will need a RubyGems account, which you can create for free.
-
First, you need to have it in a git repository:
git init # Only the first time git add -A git commit -m "Init commit"
-
Next, package your theme, by running the following command, replacing
jekyll-theme-awesome
with the name of your theme:gem build jekyll-theme-awesome.gemspec
-
Finally, push your packaged theme up to the RubyGems service, by running the following command, again replacing
jekyll-theme-awesome
with the name of your theme:gem push jekyll-theme-awesome-*.gem
-
To release a new version of your theme, update the version number in the gemspec file, (
jekyll-theme-awesome.gemspec
in this example ), and then repeat Steps 1 - 3 above. We recommend that you follow Semantic Versioning while bumping your theme-version.

WEEK 4 SUNDAY
Entrance Antiphon
Ps 105:47
Save us, O Lord our God! And gather us from the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, and make it our glory to praise you.
Collect
Grant us, Lord our God, that we may honour you with all our mind, and love everyone in truth of heart. Through our Lord...
Theme of the Sunday: God Chooses the Poor.
The three readings of today are all linked to the theme of poverty. The beatitudes could all be summed up in the first, “Happy the poor.”
To be poor, however, does not mean to possess nothing. We must be “poor in spirit,” which means that we must choose to renounce the accumulation of goods, not to use one’s capabilities and qualities selfishly and to place one’s possessions at the service of others. This theme is also found in the other two readings.
FIRST READING Zephaniah 2:3; 3:12-13
A reading from the Book of the Prophet Zephaniah
Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, who do
his commands; seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you may be hidden on
the day of the wrath of the LORD. For I will leave in the
midst of you a people humble and lowly. They shall seek refuge in the
name of the LORD, those who are left in
The word of the Lord
RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 146:7.8-9a.9bc-10 (R. Matthew 5:3)
R. Come, Lord, and save us.
It is the LORD who preserves fidelity for ever, who
does justice to those who are oppressed. It is he who gives bread to the
hungry, the LORD who sets prisoners free.
R. Come, Lord, and save us.
It is the LORD who opens the eyes of the blind, the
LORD who raises up those who are bowed down. It is the
LORD who loves the just, the LORD who protects the stranger.
R. Come, Lord, and save us.
The LORD upholds the orphan and the widow, but
thwarts the path of the wicked. The LORD will reign
for ever, the God of Sion from age to age.
R. Come, Lord, and save us.
SECOND READING 1 Corinthians 1:26-31
A reading from the first Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians
Consider your call, brethren; not many of you were
wise according to the flesh, not many were powerful, not many were of noble
birth; but God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, God chose
what is weak in the world to shame the strong, God chose what is low and
despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things
that are, so that no flesh might boast in the presence of God. He is the source
of your life in Christ Jesus, whom God made our wisdom, our righteousness and
sanctification and redemption; therefore, as it is written, "Let him who

GOSPEL Matthew 5:1-12
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew
At that time: Seeing the crowds, Jesus went up on
the mountain, and when he sat down his disciples came to him. And he opened his
mouth and taught them, saying: "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs
is the kingdom of heaven. "Blessed are those who
mourn, for they shall be comforted. "Blessed are the meek, for they shall
inherit the earth. "Blessed are those who hunger
and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. "Blessed are
the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. "Blessed
are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. "Blessed are the
peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. "Blessed
are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom
of heaven. "Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and
utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad,
for your reward is great in heaven.
The Gospel of the Lord.
Theme of the Sunday: Jesus the Expected Prophet.
The first reading announces the coming of a prophet who will speak in the name of God. The gospel tells us that this prophet is Jesus. He doesn’t communicate the word of God the way the rabbis used to; his message is new and he proclaims it “with authority.” His word is effective and frees us from the forces of evil that rule us. The second reading presents an example of the “new doctrine”: the new value attributed to virginity which is lived for the love of and at the service of our brothers and sisters.
FIRST READING Deuteronomy 18:15-20
A reading from the Book of Deuteronomy
Moses spoke to the people, saying, "The LORD
your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your
brethren--him you shall heed-- just as you desired of the LORD your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly, when you said, 'Let me
not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, or see this great fire any more,
lest I die.' And the LORD said to me, 'They have rightly said all that they
have spoken.  And whoever will not give heed to my words which he shall
speak in my name, I myself will require it of him. But
the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name which I have not commanded him
to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.'
The word of the Lord
RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 95:1-2.6-7abc.7d-9 (R. see 7d.8a)
R. O that today you would listen to his voice! Harden not your hearts.
Come, let us ring out our joy to the LORD; hail the
rock who saves us. Let us come into his presence,
giving thanks; let us hail him with a song of praise.
R. O that today you would listen to his voice! Harden
not your hearts.
O come; let us bow and bend low. Let us kneel
before the God who made us, for he is our God and we the people who belong to
his pasture, the flock that is led by his hand.
R. O that today you would listen to his voice! Harden
not your hearts.
O that today you would listen to his voice! 'Harden
not your hearts as at Meribah, as on that day at Massah in the desert when your forebears put me to the
test; when they tried me, though they saw my work.'
R. O that today you would listen to his voice! Harden
not your hearts.
SECOND READING 1 Corinthians 7:32-35
A reading from the first Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians
I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried
man is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to please the Lord; but the
married man is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please his wife, and his
interests are divided. And the unmarried woman or girl is anxious about the
affairs of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit; but the married woman
is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please her husband. I say this for
your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order
and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.

ALLELUIA Matthew 4:16
R. Alleluia. The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death light has dawned. R. Alleluia.

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark

The Gospel of the Lord
Theme of the Sunday: Liberators Persecuted.
Today the liturgy of the word gives us two examples of people faithful to their mission:
Jeremiah and Jesus, two prophets who found themselves in similar situations and who had to announce unwelcome truths to their listeners.
The first reading tells us about Jeremiah. God, knowing the difficulties he would confront, encouraged him to remain strong.
The gospel describes the rejection of Jesus, another prophet, by the people of his own village who were annoyed at his message.
The second reading describes the charism of love which can be linked to the theme of this Sunday because the Christian is the prophet of love,
and for this love risks persecution.
FIRST READING Jeremiah 1:4-5.17-19
A reading from the Book of Jeremiah
In the days of Josiah the word of the LORD came to
me saying, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you
were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations."
Do not be dismayed by them, lest I dismay you before them. And I, behold, I
make you this day a fortified city, an iron pillar, and bronze walls, against
the whole land, against the kings of Judah, its princes, its priests, and the
people of the land. They will fight against you; but they shall not prevail
against you, for I am with you, says the LORD, to deliver you."
The word of the Lord
RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 71:1-2.3-4a.5-6ab.15ab and 17 (R. see 15ab)
R. My mouth will tell of your salvation, Lord.
 In your justice, rescue me, free me; incline your ear to me and save
me.
R. My mouth will tell of your salvation, Lord.
 My God, free me from the hand
of the wicked.
R. My mouth will tell of your salvation, Lord.
It is you, O Lord, who are my hope, my trust, O LORD,
from my youth. On you I have leaned from my birth; from my mother's womb, you
have been my help.
R. My mouth will tell of your salvation, Lord.
My mouth will tell of your justice, and all the day
long of your salvation.
R. My mouth will tell of your salvation, Lord.
SECOND READING 1 Corinthians 12:31-13:13
A reading from the first Letter of Saint Paul to the Corinthians
Brethren: Earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I
will show you a still more excellent way. If I speak in the tongues of men and
of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I
have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I
have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If
I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love,
I gain nothing. Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it
is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not
irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the
right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends; as for prophecies, they
will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass
away. For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when
the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away. When I was a child, I spoke
like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a
man, I gave up childish ways. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face
to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been
fully understood. So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of
these is love.

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Luke
At that time: Jesus began to say in the synagogue,
"Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing." And all
spoke well of him, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of
his mouth; and they said, "Is not this Joseph's son?" And he said to
them, "Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, 'Physician, heal

Sciara of Colors is a frenetic mobile Puzzle Game.
Tap on the moving coloured squares of the same colour specified on the left of the screen.
Every time you destroy a correct coloured square the timer will be incremented; otherwise you loose preciuos time!
And pay attenction, because every square that go off the screen the timer will be decreased!
Good luck, and be faster, before the timer is done, or you loose the game!
The game was designed to work on mobile phone; works best on tablet like iPad.
TL;DR;
"Sciara di fuoco" is an italian (sicilian) locution to point the famous magma's flow in the beautiful island of Stromboli.

JoyStickView
@IBDesignable
public final class JoyStickView : UIView
extension JoyStickView: UIGestureRecognizerDelegate
A simple implementation of a joystick interface like those found on classic arcade games. This implementation detects and reports two values when the joystick moves:
- angle: the direction the handle is pointing. Unit is degrees with 0° pointing up (north), and 90° pointing right (east).
- displacement: how far from the view center the joystick is moved in the above direction. It has no units as it is the ratio of distance moved from center over the radius of the joystick base. Always in range 0.0-1.0.
The view has several settable parameters that be used to configure a joystick’s appearance and behavior:
- monitor: an enumeration of type
JoyStickViewMonitorKind
that can hold a function to receive updates when the joystick’s angle and/or displacement values change. Supports polar and cartesian (XY) reporting - movable: a boolean that when true lets the joystick move around in its parent’s view when there joystick moves beyond displacement of 1.0.
- movableBounds: a CGRect which limits where a movable joystick may travel
- baseImage: a UIImage to use for the joystick’s base
- handleImage: a UIImage to use for the joystick’s handle
Additional documentation is available via the attribute names below.
-
Optional monitor which will receive updates as the joystick position changes. Supports polar and cartesian reporting. The function to call with a position report is held in the enumeration value.
Declaration
Swift
public var monitor: JoyStickViewMonitorKind
-
Optional block to be called upon a tap.
Declaration
Swift
public var tappedBlock: (() -> Void)? { get set }
-
Optional rectangular region that restricts where the handle may move. The region should be defined in this view’s coordinates. For instance, to constrain the handle in the Y direction with a UIView of size 100x100, use
CGRect(x: 50, y: 0, width: 1, height: 100)
Declaration
Swift
public var handleConstraint: CGRect? { get set }
-
The last-reported angle from the joystick handle. Unit is degrees, with 0° up (north) and 90° right (east). Note that this assumes that
angleRadians
was calculated with atan2(dx, dy) and that dy is positive when pointing down.Declaration
Swift
public var angle: CGFloat { get }
-
The last-reported displacement from the joystick handle. Dimensionless, it is the ratio of movement over the radius of the joystick base. Always falls between 0.0 and 1.0
Declaration
Swift
public private(set) var displacement: CGFloat { get }
-
If
true
the joystick will move around in the parent’s view so that the joystick handle is always at a displacement of 1.0. This is the default mode of operation. Setting tofalse
will keep the view fixed.Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var movable: Bool
-
The original location of a movable joystick. Used to restore its position when user double-taps on it.
Declaration
Swift
public var movableCenter: CGPoint?
-
Optional rectangular region that restricts where the base may move. The region should be defined in the this view’s coordinates.
Declaration
Swift
public var movableBounds: CGRect? { get set }
-
The opacity of the base of the joystick. Note that this is different than the view’s overall opacity setting. The end result will be a base image with an opacity of
baseAlpha
*view.alpha
Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var baseAlpha: CGFloat { get set }
-
The opacity of the handle of the joystick. Note that this is different than the view’s overall opacity setting. The end result will be a handle image with an opacity of
handleAlpha
*view.alpha
Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var handleAlpha: CGFloat { get set }
-
The tintColor to apply to the handle. Changing it while joystick is visible will update the handle image.
Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var handleTintColor: UIColor? { get set }
-
Scaling factor to apply to the joystick handle. A value of 1.0 will result in no scaling of the image, however the default value is 0.85 due to historical reasons.
Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var handleSizeRatio: CGFloat { get set }
-
Control how the handle image is generated. When this is
false
(default), a CIFilter will be used to tint the handle image with thehandleTintColor
. This results in a monochrome image of just one color, but with lighter and darker areas depending on the original image. When this istrue
, the handle image is just used as a mask, and all pixels with an alpha = 1.0 will be colored with thehandleTintColor
value.Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var colorFillHandleImage: Bool { get set }
-
Controls how far the handle can travel along the radius of the base. A value of 1.0 (default) will let the handle travel the full radius, with maximum travel leaving the center of the handle lying on the circumference of the base. A value greater than 1.0 will let the handle travel beyond the circumference of the base, while a value less than 1.0 will reduce the travel to values within the circumference. Note that regardless of this value, handle movements will always report displacement values between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive.
Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var travel: CGFloat
-
The image to use for the base of the joystick
Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var baseImage: UIImage? { get set }
-
The image to use for the joystick handle
Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var handleImage: UIImage? { get set }
-
Control whether view will recognize a double-tap gesture and move the joystick base to its original location when it happens. Note that this is only useful if
moveable
is true.Declaration
Swift
@IBInspectable public var enableDoubleTapForFrameReset: Bool { get set }
-
Position mode for a joystick handle. The default (original) is

I never expected to be going to school in my 50's but this is a modern world that is ever changing, highly technical, and media driven, and you have to keep up or you will end up working in a thankless job. I had gone to a technical school in 1984 and learned about robotics, electronics, and other technologies. That education drove my career for 30 years, but at my age those technologies had reached their limit in terms of driving my career. I needed modern technical skills quickly, because I want to live the rest of my life in control of my own career.
After working hard in technology at the hardware level, I moved into sales and marketing of technology products in the early 90's, just after the Internet was born. Sales did not really fit my personality type at all but I was very good at it despite myself. I enjoyed the science behind marketing technologies and continue to work in the field as a consultant. By the late 90's it was apparent that the Internet was the future of all things commerce and information. I wanted to be a part of it, so I started creating my first pure HTML websites and jumped into Drupal development with both feet. For the next 15 years I worked hard at my Drupal skills and continued to build websites. Things change on the Internet at a rapid pace as the open source community grinds away at improving and building upon what has come before. I knew that my career had already passed it's peak and I had to make some changes to ensure that I had a good run for the next 20+ years.
After being laid-off from a position as marketing manager, I decided that the time was right to take action and look at educating myself as a way to change careers. I am very happy that I decided to start learning again and Hunter Business School had the right Full-Stack web development course for me. I wanted a stack that focused on the open-source world which is what the overwhelming majority of the web runs on. I have a good background in Linux, SQL, HTML, CSS and some minor programming, but learning everything again and adding to my existing knowledge is giving me the feeling that I have the power to create a new future for myself and my family. Growth in the general field of web development is projected at around 15% through 2026 which is very encouraging. Specific disciplines have shown as high as 29% growth projection for the same time period. I see many possibilities with all of this new knowledge. The web is an unlimited thing and even the IOT can be tied into the knowledge base that I am getting from school.
