the insulin reaction to protein-rich foods like fish and eggs is "normal." ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.22
Consumption of omega-6 vegetable oils rocketed from 12 lbs per head per year in 1965 to 50 lbs per head per year today— that's a 400 percent increase! In parallel, consumption of fish declined and food manufacturers stripped omega-3 oil out of their products— why? Because it goes rancid easily and so has a short shelf life, equaling a lower monetary profit for food manufacturers. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.40
We only need about one gram each of omega-6 and omega-3 oils. We need to strip out the omega-6 oils to the point where we are only consuming a couple of grams a day at most, and we need to make sure we get at least one gram a day of omega-3 oils. Eating oily fish every day will help you boost your intake of omega-3. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.41
Good oils share the top of the pyramid, and should be eaten sparingly to reap their health benefits. ... These include oily fish and canola (rapeseed) oil. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.48
All seafood is good, particularly the oily fish. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.48
All seafood is an acceptable component of the Savanna Model feeding pattern. The "oily fish," rich in omega-3 oils, are best, such as wild salmon, sardines, herring, and mackerel. Other fish and shellfish have an excellent essential fatty acid profile and are also good. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.70
The food to which we are secondarily adapted is animal matter. Think modest when planning servings of meat, poultry, eggs, and fish ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.83
Old-Fashioned Haddock Breakfast. This used to be a good standby in many parts of the English-speaking world. Many people are old enough to remember, perhaps, when their grandparents used to eat like this. They would lightly poach a piece of haddock (or kipper or any other appropriate fish) in simmering water for about five minutes. They would accompany it with lashings of sauteed onion, grilled tomatoes, and mushrooms. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.88
A suitable choice for lunch is a mixed salad, and an appropriate quantity might be 12 oz. Weigh foods until you are used to estimating the quantities by eye— it's larger than you are used to. Get in the habit of thinking that a salad is often in two parts: The salad vegetables, comprised uniquely of foods from Food Group 3 (Non-starchy Vegetables), and some additions of protein-rich foods from Food Group 6 (Meat, Poultry, Eggs, and Fish). You can add tuna or chicken breast, for example, to the salad or eat as a side dish. Use a simple homemade vinaigrette of mustard, olive oil, lemon juice, and vinegar. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.88
In some ways, a dinner party is the hardest situation to manage. You don't want to put your hosts under pressure, and you want to be invited another day. If you know your hosts well, it is all right to call in advance and mention that you have special dietary requirements. Say that you prefer fish over red meat or that you don't like to eat fruit after a meal. Mention that you like green salads and lots of green vegetables. Then, dig into your meal and enjoy it for what it is. You will certainly have to compromise, but if your basic eating habits are natural and healthy, the occasional lapse is not going to be the end of the world. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.90
.Foods of animal origin can be cooked. In general terms, there are few nutrients that might be destroyed by heating. Even oily fish keep their good omega-3 oils intact after baking, grilling, or barbecuing. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.92
Meat, poultry, eggs, and fish (Food Group 6) can be cooked using the most appropriate method: Microwaving, steaming, grilling, baking, or sauteing. Avoid deep-frying. If using oil, just use a light coating of olive oil. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.92
Of course, many people bring up their children successfully as vegetarians. However, staying with the Savanna Model, fish and fowl are fine. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.105
If you are eating according to th e Savanna Model, what is the likelihood that you are suffering any deficiencies? The answer is, highly unlikely. You will be consuming eight times the weight of non-starchy plant food compared to the average Am erican. So, even on plant foods with "reduced levels" of micronutrients in th e soil in w hich they're grow n, your intake will be w ell into the healthy intake comfort zone. The one nutrient that is hard to get this way is omega-3 essential fa tty acids. In this regard, we strongly recommend eating at least one portion of oily fish per day instead of popping an omega-3 supplement. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.109
Eskimos hunted fish, seal, whale, walrus, musk ox, caribou, polar bears, wolves, birds, rabbits, ducks, and geese. They ate every part of the animal—brains, blood, intestines, and even the feces. On occasion, the women would gather eggs, crabs, mollusks, and shellfish. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.119
Traditionally, the Japanese are Buddhists and, as such, they did not eat animals at all. However, they did eat fish, often raw. By Western standards, it was a high consumption, around 90 g (3.15 oz) per person per day (four times as much as the average American). From this, they got a high consumption of omega-3 fish oil, notably the essential fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.121
At home, by a fluke of culture, geography, and luck, the Japanese have hit on a good lifestyle, but even so, it is not perfect. For example, they smoke too much and they consume too much salt. More than in most other countries, the Japanese die of strokes and heart disease. The diet of raw fish means that they absorb the live eggs and larvae of intestinal parasites, so that worm infestations of the gut, virtually unknown in the West, are quite common in Japan. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.122
A study carried out in the remote and tiny Okinawan island of Kohama found that the inhabitants eat even more fish, 144 g (about 5 oz), and far less salt, about 6 g per day, than their mainland neighbors. They eat seaweed and herbaceous plants and also sweet potato and tofu (soybean curd). They have adopted some Chinese practices from nearby Taiwan, eating some pork and drinking green tea. And they exercise a lot: 95 percent of the eighty-year-olds studied led active lives, working long hours every day in their fish-farming paddies. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.123
The Cretans ate frugally; they ate fish but virtually no meat (just the occasional goat's meat, as beef was nonexistent); they ate plenty of plant food, notably a salad-green called purslane; and they consumed very little dairy, pastries, or sugars. Unlike the Okinawans, they ate bread— a rough-ground, whole-wheat variety— and they had a moderate fat consumption through the sparing use of olive oil in the kitchen. They also had an extraordinary custom: For the Cretan, traditional breakfast often consisted of a small amount of olive oil downed in one gulp, and that was it until lunch time. Wine was also commonly drunk, but in moderation. ~Paleo in a Nutshell p.123
Our ancestors were not alone in the savanna. They shared the land with a wide variety of creatures: giraffe, lion, elephant, warthog, rhinoceros, hyena, antelope, gazelle, zebra, baboons, chimpanzees, vultures, eagles, flamingos, and many more. In addition, there were snakes, porcupines, crocodiles, lizards, tortoises, snails, grasshoppers, and a myriad of small mammals, reptiles, and insects. The lakes, streams, and waterholes teemed with many species of freshwater fish, shellfish, frogs, toads, ducks, geese, and other aquatic creatures. ~Deadly Harvest p.13
Game birds like guinea fowl, francolin, and bustard are captured in cunning snares. Ostrich is hunted on occasion. As mentioned earlier, the San do not have much access to water, but when they get the chance, they spear fish, trap toads, and collect shellfish. ~Deadly Harvest p.16
Total animal matter consumption (that is, game animals plus eggs and all the gathered and fished animals) is no more than around 8 ounces (225 g) per person per day. Plant food is about 2 pounds (900 g) per day. This weight of food is rather less than even the San would like to be eating ~Deadly Harvest p.17
30,000 years ago, the Cro-Magnons of Europe ate fish, turtles, shellfish, and birds. Meanwhile the Neanderthals, who lived alongside them, ate reindeer, mammoth, and other large herbivores. ~Deadly Harvest p.22
With the Industrial Revolution going full-swing during the 19th century, cities grew to sizes never before seen in history. Chicago's population increased 17-fold from 30,000 in 1850 to 500,000 in 1870. New York City grew 25 times bigger, from 60,000 in 1800 to 1.5 million in 1870. In contrast, Babylon at the time of the Biblical exodus (1447 B .C .) was only about 60,000 total. Feeding populations in these enormous agglomerations required novel methods. It was quite impossible to get most fresh foods to them in the normal way. Food had to be "preserved,"— that is, processed in a way that stopped it from going bad. Meat and fish were a particular problem but there were tried-and-true methods to con serve it: salting and smoking. Salt beef, bacon, cured ham, kippered herring, and bologna were just a few examples that took over the diet of city dwellers, replacing their fresh equivalent. ~Deadly Harvest p.39
The Japanese Navy used to lose 50% of its seamen to beriberi. They were eating a diet of polished white rice and not much else. In the 1870s, the Japanese reported that they could cure beriberi by feeding their sailors with some extra rations of vegetables and fish. We now know that beriberi is a disease caused by a deficiency of vitamin B₁ (thiamine). ~Deadly Harvest p.44
in 1942, the USDA issued a new food guide that reduced the number of food groups to what they called the "Basic Seven." These were: green and yellow vegetables; oranges, tomatoes, and grapefruit; potatoes and other vegetables and fruit; milk and milk products; meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and dried peas and beans; bread, flour, and cereals; and butter and fortified margarine. ~Deadly Harvest p.45
With the creation of the "basic seven", several changes were made from the 12 food groups in the family food plans. "Potatoes and sweet potatoes" have been lumped in with "other vegetables and fruit." "Eggs" and "dry beans, peas, and nuts" are lumped in with "meat, poultry, and fish." The "butter" group has been expanded to "butter and fortified margarine." The word lean has been dropped from the category "lean meat." The "other fats" group and the "sugars" group have disappeared entirely. ~Deadly Harvest p.46
In 1956, the "Basic Seven" groups were condensed to the "Basic Four": milk and milk products; meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dry beans, and nuts; fruits and vegetables; and grains. This time the "green and yellow vegetables" group has disappeared. "Butter and fortified margarine" has been dropped. "Oranges, tomatoes, and grapefruit" are lumped into the catch-all category "fruits and vegetables." ~Deadly Harvest p.46
One USDA group, "Meat, Fish, Poultry, Dry Beans, Nuts and Eggs," seems to have been lumped together because they are, on the whole, protein-rich foods. However, not all protein-rich foods (for example, cheese) are included and some protein-poor foods (for example, chestnuts) make the list. ~Deadly Harvest p.48
Our [Savanna model] modified groupings then are: Grains; Vegetables (Starchy); Vegetables (Non-Starchy); Fruits; Milk and Dairy; Meat, Fish, Eggs, and Poultry; Dry Beans; Nuts; Fats and Oils; Sugars and Sweeteners; Salt and Sodium; and Beverages. ~Deadly Harvest p.48
In the USDA meat group There are significant differences among these items, so we will break down this group into three major classes. One is protein-rich foods of animal origin: "Meat, Poultry, Eggs, and Fish." The other two are protein-rich foods of plant origin: "Dry Beans and Peas (or Legumes)" and "Nuts." ~Deadly Harvest p.48
At the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), meat is the term applied to the flesh of domesticated mammals, such as cattle, pig, and sheep. More conventionally, this is known as "red meat," which is the designation used here. Similarly, "game" refers to the flesh of any wild land animal, such as wild boar or pheasant. "White meat" refers to flesh taken from domesticated birds, such as chickens, and "seafood" refers to fish and shellfish. We will look at both wild and domesticated sources of animal products. The USDA does not include certain classes of animal foods that were common in our ancestors' diet— the "exotic" categories of reptiles, worms, insects, and gastropods (snails and slugs). ~Deadly Harvest p.58
Our ancient ancestors certainly consumed fish and shellfish on a modest scale— up to 12% of calories according to Michael Crawford, professor of nutrition at London Metropolitan University. As we saw in Chapter 1, fish were speared and trapped as the occasion presented itself. Pleistocene man (or more likely women) easily collected shellfish along the shoreline of African lakes and rivers. ~Deadly Harvest p.62
Early civilizations took a long time to learn to farm fish. Carp originated in China and have been raised in ponds and rice paddies there for 3,000 years. From about 500 B.C., the ancient Egyptians raised fish in specially built ponds. The main species was Nile perch, a variety of tilapia, which is still commonly available today. Carp cultivation has spread all over the world, notably central Europe, but it was always on the scale of the village pond or its equivalent. ~Deadly Harvest p.62
It was not until the 1960s that fish farming or "aquaculture" came of age. Since then, salmon, trout, catfish, and tilapia have been farmed on an industrial scale. They have almost completely displaced their wild counterparts from our tables. Less commonly farmed are carp, mullet, redfish, and sea bass. Efforts are already under way to farm tuna, cod, sea bream, and turbot in vast enclosed offshore pens. ~Deadly Harvest p.62
The fish and shellfish consumed in our ancestral diet were entirely of freshwater varieties. On the other hand, modern fish farming is concentrated mostly on seafood. It appears that this is not an important distinction—if there is a problem with aquaculture, it is with the way the creatures are often fed and the pollutants that get into their bodies. ~Deadly Harvest p.62
( . . . ) wildfowl and wild fish are just fine. Poultry, particularly chicken and turkey, tend to be fattier and contain more of the unhealthy fats.  Duck and goose are also fatty birds, but their fats are semi-liquid at room temperature, indicating a low saturated fat content. ~Deadly Harvest p.64
Fish have more "good" oils if they are wild or have at least been fed correctly on the fish farms. ~Deadly Harvest p.64
the Japanese, with their diet rich in oily fish, have the omega-3/ omega-6 balance about right. ~Deadly Harvest p.106
Humans evolved in an area, the African Rift Valley, that was endowed with lakes and streams. Humans of that time freely consumed shellfish, fish, wading birds, and ducks and their eggs. Leigh Broadhurst calculates that the quantities consumed did not have to be large— just 6% to 12% of calories. ~Deadly Harvest p.106
What are acid-forming foods? Not foods that taste acidic, but rather the ones that after digestion and metabolism have the effect of acidifying the body. They are foods that contain sulfur, phosphorus, and chlorine— found chiefly in proteins like meat, fish, eggs, and cheese. For example, bland roast chicken is one of the most acidifying foods around. Starches like bread, flour, pasta, and cereals are also acid forming. ~Deadly Harvest p.109
Animal matter can provide the same micronutrients as plants, such as calcium and vitamin A, but there is one essential micronutrient that has to be obtained from animal matter—vitamin B₁₂. It is only needed in tiny amounts and it is easily obtained from eggs, fish, poultry, and meat. However, without it, we sicken and die, unlike the vegan gorilla who can manage without it. ~Deadly Harvest p.130
Frozen poultry, fish, seafood, and exotic meats are fine ( . . . ) ~Deadly Harvest p.166
Avoid protein/starch combinations— Group 6 foods (Meat, Poultry, Eggs, and Fish) with Group 2 foods (Grains) and/or Group 3 foods (Vegetables, Starchy). ~Deadly Harvest p.171
Many studies have shown that saturated fats, particularly hydrogenated and trans-fats, are powerful immune depressors, allowing cancers to flourish. Finally, the traditional consumption of oily fish provides them with the "good" omega-3 oils. We are unwittingly depressing our immune system with a diet overloaded with omega-6 oils. Drive these out of your diet and favor the omega-3 oils at every opportunity. But don't go too far. The ideal is a 1-to-l balance, but you don't have to micromanage it—just follow the Savanna Model and the ratio works out just fine. ~Deadly Harvest p.232
The Japanese are one of the heaviest smoking populations in the world— and yet one of the longest lived. Japanese longevity is not due to smoking but in spite of it. But they get away with smoking because their diet, while not perfect, is a lot better than the one that is common in the West. In other words, the Japanese diet, turns out to be closer to the ideal diet for the human species than what is eaten elsewhere. Their focus on fish (which contains omega-3 oils) instead of meat is beneficial. ~Deadly Harvest p.235
Our ancient ancestors had high intakes of omega-3 fatty acids from sources that included fish and shellfish from lakes and rivers. Both a high consumption of omega-3 oils, including fish and fish oils, and the absence of saturated fats help lower your risk. ~Deadly Harvest p.254
Post-natal depression is 50 times more common in countries with low levels of seafood consumption. Eskimos, when they abandon their traditional, omega-3-rich fish diet for industrial foods, suffer more depression. Another study on Finns, which compared high fish consumers with those who were not, had a similar result. ~Deadly Harvest p.256


getting_started.Rmd
rtrackr
is currently available through GitHub. To install the development version, use:
remotes::install_github("hamishgibbs/rtrackr")
Dataset tracking starts with the trackr_new()
function. Load a new dataset into R and use trackr_new()
to record each record in the dataset. Here, we create a simple dataframe as an example.
df <- data.frame(a = c('a', 'b', 'c'), b = c(1, 2, 3))
| a | b |
|---|---|
| a | 1 |
| b | 2 |
| c | 3 |
trackr_new()
adds a trackr_id
column to the dataframe, the starting point for all data logging with rtrackr
. Be sure to specify where rtrackr
log files should be stored with trackr_dir =
(you will see an error if you do not).
trackr_dir <- '~/Documents/trackr_dir' df <- trackr_new(df, trackr_dir = trackr_dir)
## [1] "Successfully written trackr file c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26.json"
## [1] "Successfully written trackr data log c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26_dl.json"
| a | b | trackr_id |
|---|---|---|
| a | 1 | c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26_4751028c3d830cf93f7d1e64d5e4d58c9d01ee32 |

| c | 3 | c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26_acecf5a5dfb445683737c2f7f135b18c5eaee1a7 |
You should see an output similar to what is printed above “Successfully written …”. These messages tell us that the dataset has been successfully logged and that two log files have been written. One file (the trackr file) records the lineage of each row in the dataset. The other file (with the suffix "_dl") is the data log - a record of the dataset at this point in time.
rtrackr
is designed to record dataset changes throughout the processing chain, allowing for a full history of important changes to each record. a timepoint
defines a certain time in the processing chain, and is similar to a commit
in git
. You can record a timepoint
with trackr_timepoint()
First, we will make a change to the logged dataset.
df <- df %>% dplyr::mutate(b = b + 1)
| a | b | trackr_id |
|---|---|---|
| a | 2 | c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26_4751028c3d830cf93f7d1e64d5e4d58c9d01ee32 |
| b | 3 | c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26_d6543aeb67806714fa9e9567dc5c46b2106ae843 |
| c | 4 | c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26_acecf5a5dfb445683737c2f7f135b18c5eaee1a7 |
Then, we will log this change as a new timepoint
.
df <- trackr_timepoint(df, trackr_dir = trackr_dir, timepoint_message = 'First processing step')
## [1] "Successfully written trackr file 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454.json"
## [1] "Successfully written trackr data log 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454_dl.json"
| a | b | trackr_id |
|---|---|---|
| a | 2 | 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454_9b298ab2c9539c0d7f187ce26315f459fa58e78e |
| b | 3 | 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454_0d62e87ad3877b0c51934dd0c38cba3467375b09 |

You should see the same success messages as you did for trackr_new()
, above. Notice the argument timepoint_message
, which gives an optional, plain text record of this timepoint, similar to a commit message in git
. To suppress success messages, use suppress_success = TRUE
, the default is FALSE
.
Congratulations! Using rtrackr
should be as easy as tracking a new dataset and logging subsequent processing timepoints. For the special case of summarizing multiple records into one, see Summarising data.
Please note: rtrackr
uses the current UNIX timestamp (in seconds) to define a trackr_id
. Logging multiple timepoints in the same second is not permitted, and trackr_timepoint
will wait until the following second to write a new trackr log file. This means that repeated calls to trackr_timepoint
may delay code execution. For more information, see how it works.
Now that we have logged a dataset and a processing timepoint, we can query the history of a record in the most recent version of the dataset. Use trackr_lineage()
to get all parent records of a given trackr_id.
target_id <- df$trackr_id[1] trackr_lineage(target_id, trackr_dir)
## [1] "Successfully written 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454_9b298ab2c9539c0d7f187ce26315f459fa58e78e_lineage.json"
For a more intelligible way to represent the lineage of a trackr_id, use trackr_network()
to create an interactive network of the dataset history.
lineage_fn <- paste0(trackr_dir, '/', target_id, '_lineage.json') trackr_network(lineage_fn)
After creating, recording, and querying the history of changes to a dataset, use clean_trackr_dir()
to remove all log files.
clean_trackr_dir(trackr_dir)
## [1] "Removed: 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454_9b298ab2c9539c0d7f187ce26315f459fa58e78e_lineage.json"
## [2] "Removed: 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454_dl.json"
## [3] "Removed: 60487d1e5ab8465ba4b039ed55a18342ab184454.json"
## [4] "Removed: c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26_dl.json"
## [5] "Removed: c3541976c36e94ef6b25d3a6a70b136f58cd2e26.json"
Warning: clean_trackr_dir
is a simple wrapper function that will delete any .json
files in the trackr_dir
. Use caution when mixing trackr log files with other files. The recommended practice is to create a separate directory for all trackr log files.

Older voters invited to Telford election hustings event
Elderly voters in Telford will be given the chance to ask their burning questions to election candidates in a hustings event.
Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin and Telford Senior Citizens Forum will be holding the election hustings where people can present their questions for candidates before voting next month.
Heather Osborne, chief executive of Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin said: “This is an exciting opportunity to engage with local candidates on the issues that really matter to older people.
“It’s important that older people get to exercise their democratic right and work towards a positive impact on local decision makers by highlighting what is important to them.”
Residents are able to raise any concerns towards all major parties candidates on anything from transport, poverty or any other issues affecting older people in the region.
Chris Fox, co-ordinator of the Senior Citizens Forum, explained it is a chance to ask candidates opinions and thoughts towards key topics.
He said: “Candidates that are standing in both Telford and Wrekin constituencies will be present.
"People can submit questions on paper at the beginning, with one candidate from each party answering each question.
"It’s your chance to participate in local democracy by asking candidates what they would do about key topics up for debate.”
Questions can be presented on paper on November 28, from 10.30am to 12.30pm at Whitehouse Hotel in Wellington.

Savory Baked Apples with Sausage Stuffing
Recipe by Charis Satchell
Ingredients:
1 Tablespoon oil or butter
1 celery stalk, diced
1/4 cup finely diced onion
1/2 package sausage
1 box stuffing mix
1 1/4 cup Swanson's Unsalted Chicken Broth (or the same amount of water called for on the instructions for the stuffing)
6-12 apples such as Granny Smith, Golden Delicious and Red Delicious

2. Add the sausage to the skillet and cook thoroughly making sure to break it up into crumbles. Remove from heat.
3. In a large bowl, stir together stuffing mix and sausage mixture. Add Swanson's chicken broth in the same amount as water is called for on the stuffing mix instructions.
4. Stir the mixture together so that the stuffing is soft and moist. Feel free to add a little more broth if needed. Set the mix aside.
5. Prepare the apples: Slice the very top of the apples off.
6. Use a spoon or a melon baller to carefully scoop out the entire core of the apple.
7. Repeat this for every apple.
8. Spoon stuffing in to the apples and place in a high-sided baking dish.
9. Once all the apples are stuffed and in the dish, carefully pour an additional 1/4-12 cup of broth over the apples. Add another 1/4 cup to the bottom of the dish.
10. Bake uncovered at 350° for about 30 minutes or until the apples are softened but not falling apart. If you don't want the stuffing to brown, cover the dish while baking.

>From Mr. Thomas Reardon, Dear Friend, Greetings to you and your family in the name of God.I am personally contacting you in my search for a reliable and God fearing person and having gotten your contact through prayers and painstaking efforts I have decided to seek your help in carrying out my last wish .My name is Thomas Reardon, 55 yrs old and an American national who lived in Iraq. Until recently I had investments in oil and construction in Baghdad. Since the war started in this country my life has been thrown into severe mystery. I lost my wife and two children to bombs dropped in the city. Today, I�m in a hospital in China with very fatal injuries and I have lost my ability to talk. My doctors have indicated that my chances of survival are very slim. I have therefore decided that part of my fortunes should be distributed to charity works to help victims of the war in sudan, iraq and other war zones and the rest part held in trust by you and use in future for charity purpose. Before this happened my business and concern for making money was all I lived for. I never really cared about other values in life. But since the loss of my family, I have found a new desire to assist helpless families and victims of humanitarian crisis. Shortly after the first gulf war I deposited the sum of USD$8.5 million dollars with a financial company in Europe,given the complete ruin and disorder in the country I have no knowledge of any relative who would be available to help me carry out this last wish. Please I want you to help me collect the deposit from the company in Europe and distribute it accordingly. I want you to use your discretion and judgement to re-emburse yourself at the end of the day for all expenses you will incure during the collection and distribution of funds. If you are willing to help, please reply as soon as you can so we can look at your reward and the things you need to do to collect the money. Lastly, A list of this orgainization you intend to distribute this funds to will be highly appreciated. Upon your reply I shall send you the certifiate of deposit and ownership certificate that was issued at the time I deposited the Funds with them. I will also be sending to you my international passport upon your reply. May the good God bless you and your family. Endeavour to reply through my secured email address<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Thanks/ Regards.

(i copied it from semver.org, therefore it sounds boring)
The key words “MUST”, “MUST NOT”, “REQUIRED”, “SHALL”, “SHALL NOT”, “SHOULD”, “SHOULD NOT”, “RECOMMENDED”, “MAY”, and “OPTIONAL” in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119.
A normal version number MUST take the form X.Y.Z where X, Y, and Z are non-negative integers, and MUST NOT contain leading zeroes. X is the venti version, Y is the grande version, and Z is the tall version. Each element MUST increase numerically. For instance: 1.9.0 -> 1.10.0 -> 1.11.0.
Once a versioned package has been released, the contents of that version MUST NOT be modified. Any modifications MUST be released as a new version.
venti version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable.
Version 1.0.0 defines the public API. The way in which the version number is incremented after this release is dependent on this public API and how it changes.
tall version Z (x.y.Z | x > 0) MUST be incremented if only backwards compatible bug fixes are introduced. A bug fix is defined as an internal change that fixes incorrect behavior. A bug can also be fixed by calling it a feature
grande version Y (x.Y.z | x > 0) MUST be incremented if new, backwards compatible functionality is introduced to the public API. It MUST be incremented if any public API functionality is marked as deprecated. It MAY be incremented if substantial new functionality or improvements are introduced within the private code. It MAY include tall level changes. tall version MUST be reset to 0 when grande version is incremented.
venti version X (X.y.z | X > 0) MUST be incremented if any backwards incompatible changes are introduced to the public API. It MAY also include grande and tall level changes. tall and grande version MUST be reset to 0 when venti version is incremented.
A pre-release version MAY be denoted by appending a hyphen and a series of dot separated identifiers immediately following the tall version. Identifiers MUST comprise only ASCII alphanumerics and hyphen [0-9A-Za-z-]. Identifiers MUST NOT be empty. Numeric identifiers MUST NOT include leading zeroes. Pre-release versions have a lower precedence than the associated normal version. A pre-release version indicates that the version is unstable and might not satisfy the intended compatibility requirements as denoted by its associated normal version. Examples: 1.0.0-alpha, 1.0.0-alpha.1, 1.0.0-0.3.7, 1.0.0-x.7.z.92.
Build metadata MAY be denoted by appending a plus sign and a series of dot separated identifiers immediately following the tall or pre-release version. Identifiers MUST comprise only ASCII alphanumerics and hyphen [0-9A-Za-z-]. Identifiers MUST NOT be empty. Build metadata MUST be ignored when determining version precedence. Thus two versions that differ only in the build metadata, have the same precedence. Examples: 1.0.0-alpha+001, 1.0.0+20130313144700, 1.0.0-beta+exp.sha.5114f85.
Precedence refers to how versions are compared to each other when ordered. Precedence MUST be calculated by separating the version into venti, grande, tall and pre-release identifiers in that order (Build metadata does not figure into precedence). Precedence is determined by the first difference when comparing each of these identifiers from left to right as follows: venti, grande, and tall versions are always compared numerically. Example: 1.0.0 < 2.0.0 < 2.1.0 < 2.1.1. When venti, grande, and tall are equal, a pre-release version has lower precedence than a normal version. Example: 1.0.0-alpha < 1.0.0. Precedence for two pre-release versions with the same venti, grande, and tall version MUST be determined by comparing each dot separated identifier from left to right until a difference is found as follows: identifiers consisting of only digits are compared numerically and identifiers with letters or hyphens are compared lexically in ASCII sort order. Numeric identifiers always have lower precedence than non-numeric identifiers. A larger set of pre-release fields has a higher precedence than a smaller set, if all of the preceding identifiers are equal.

Design, Manufacturing, and Inspection Data for a Box Assembly
To better understand and address the challenges faced in linking all stages of a manufacturing and design process, an investigative fabrication process was designed and enacted as part of a collaboration between National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC). This collaboration sought to test selected open standards' ability to integrate the product-lifecycle stages of engineering design, manufacturing, and quality assurance through a thorough implementation of a small scale model-based enterprise (MBE). This dataset was generated as a result of the collaboration.

CHASING AMY A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1997 James Berardinelli
RATING (0 TO 10): 8.5 Alternative Scale: ***1/2 out of ****
United States, 1997 U.S. Release Date: 3/28/97 (limited) Running Length: 1:55 MPAA Classification: R (Profanity, frank sexual discussion) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: 1.85:1
Cast: Ben Affleck, Joey Lauren Adams, Jason Lee, Dwight Ewell, Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith Director: Kevin Smith Producer: Scott Mosier Screenplay: Kevin Smith Cinematography: David Klein U.S. Distributor: Miramax Films
"And to all the critics who hated our last flick -- all is forgiven." -- CHASING AMY's closing credits
Well, I didn't exactly hate MALLRATS, but I thought it was a comedown for Kevin Smith, the talented writer/director who debuted strongly with 1994's CLERKS. CHASING AMY is the third film in Smith's so-called "New Jersey Trilogy" (a series that may end up having more than three entries), so named because most of the action takes place in the Garden State. Like CLERKS, but unlike MALLRATS, principal photography took place in Smith's home town, as well as across the river in Manhattan.
CHASING AMY fits in nicely with the director's previous two films. As in CLERKS and MALLRATS, there are numerous references to pop culture (the ubiquitous STAR WARS films, comic books, the Archie comic strip, TV shows ALICE and STAR TREK, and even a few in-jokes related to CLERKS). Smith's brand of bawdy humor is also very much in evidence, although it should be noted that CHASING AMY isn't as hilarious as CLERKS. In fact, it could be argued that this film isn't even as funny as MALLRATS. Instead, CHASING AMY finds other ways to satisfy its audience, and the result is the most complete and mature film of Smith's short career.
With CHASING AMY, it's easy to anticipate a certain degree of inventive humor, but what's a bit unexpected is the solid drama, effective romance, and strong characters. CLERKS worked because the dialogue sparkled, but Smith has honed his screenwriting and film making skills since then. While CHASING AMY boasts the same keen interplay, that quality, along with first-rate character development, acts as a supplement to the smart, surprisingly original plot. The movie starts out as light as a feather, but it doesn't take long for us to realize that CHASING AMY isn't just another lark for Smith. This movie is about something, and the deeper we get into it, the more we realize how emotionally on-target the script is.
Holden McNeil (Ben Affleck) and Banky Edwards (Jason Lee) are comic book authors. Their BLUNTMAN & CHRONIC magazine is a big-seller, and, when they attend a comic book convention in New York, they attract long lines for autograph signings. At that convention, Holden meets fellow comic writer/artist Alyssa Jones (Joey Lauren Adams). Alyssa's project is the less testosterone-oriented IDIOSYNCRATIC ROUTINE. She and Holden hit it off almost immediately. They go out for a few drinks and play darts. Later, when talking to best friend Banky, he claims that he and Alyssa "shared a moment" and confesses that he has fallen for her. But, whether or not it's really love, Holden is in for a big surprise because Alyssa is a lesbian. So, while she wants to be friends and pal around with him, Holden finds himself helplessly, hopelessly smitten.
Smith clearly has his hand on the pulse of his generation ("X" marks the spot). His observations about comic books, video games, and other aspects of life in the '90s are as insightful as they often are scathing. But this is nothing new -- it was evident in both CLERKS and MALLRATS. What's different here is that Smith has crafted a touching, nuanced romance which may be the most memorable screen love affair since BEFORE SUNRISE. There are real human feelings and problems involved in Holden and Alyssa's relationship, and, every time the storyline threatens to devolve into a cliche, it somehow avoids the trap.
The best scenes are those that explore the evolving relationship between Holden and Alyssa. There's a wonderful montage that depicts them doing all the kinds of things that friends do. Ben Affleck and Joey Lauren Adams, both veterans of Smith films, develop an effective chemistry. Adams, who looks a little like Cameron Diaz and sounds a little like Jennifer Tilley, displays surprising dramatic range and ability. She's someone to watch.
Affleck and Adams aren't the only familiar faces to appear in CHASING AMY. Jason Lee, who played one of the leads in MALLRATS, is back, albeit in a different role. Brian O'Halloran, CLERKS' Dante, has a cameo as a TV producer who wants to develop BLUNTMAN & CHRONIC into a Saturday morning show. And, of course, Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Smith) are on hand, dispensing advice as only they can. The end credits once again promise their return (in the long-awaited, often- delayed DOGMA, which was originally supposed to be the follow-up to CLERKS).
Ever wondered exactly what lesbians do when they're together? Or how they define "virginity"? Banky does, and he's not shy about asking. This leads to a graphically funny sequence that results in Alyssa and Banky comparing "war wounds" gathered from past sexual encounters. Like CLERKS, CHASING AMY doesn't shy away from profane conversations. There's even an instance when oral sex is compared to (of all things) THE WEATHER CHANNEL and CNN (you'll have to see the movie to understand why). In fact, I can't print any of CHASING AMY's best lines here -- they're all R-rated.
CHASING AMY is entertainment of the best sort. For nearly two hours, it keeps the audience enraptured. There aren't many missteps, and, those few that exist are minor and easily forgiven. CHASING AMY is touching, funny, sweet, and most important of all, real -- a welcome breath of fresh air. You can't ask for more than that from any motion picture, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a movie in theaters these days that offers anything more appealing, revealing, or enjoyable than Kevin Smith's third feature.

SHREK (2001) Reviewed by John Sylva Rating: A-
It stands as a moment one will not soon forget: a giant, green ogre flips through the pages of a cliche fairy tale, narrating it with every bit of dull inspiration that the story holds. This leads one to believe that this serves as the prologue to Shrek, DreamWorks' second computer animated feature, but in a pricelessly hilarious bit of cinema, a page of this tale serves as that ogre's toilet paper. From this opening moment, one can infer Shrek's defying of all expectations regarding it as a standard, Disney-esque fairy tale. Although rampant moments of hilarity dot Shrek, the true charm of the film lies in the bold elements of friendship, courage, and acceptance, excelled by outstanding direction, stunning actor voice work, and most importantly, a witty screenplay with more going on than meets the eye.
While Shrek features an abundance of humor related directly toward adults, positive friendship values aimed at younger children fulfill the storyline: Shrek, the previously mentioned ogre, holds a position of absolute nothingness within his community. The jolly green giant meets a fellow outsider, known only as the Donkey (his species) who talks, and although he remains reluctant to warm up to him for a good portion of time, Shrek eventually comes to a mutual understanding with him by acknowledging their common state as outcasts of the world. The pair team up to retrieve Princess Fiona from a castle guarded by a dragon for the powerful Lord Farquaad, learning quite a bit about each other and themselves along the way. Their friendship exhibits the core theme of the need for someone to lean on, exemplifying to any child who may witness the film that acting as an honest companion can unquestionably affect someone. Shrek and Donkey endure as supposed freaks of nature due only to their differences from others but cling to each other for support and guidance along their journey.
Courage demonstrates itself within two major storylines: along the journey to rescue Fiona, Donkey's immeasurable cowardice reveals itself. Whether he encounters walking over a shaky bridge or living alone, Donkey withholds fears that he continuously puts aside without self-acknowledgment. But the yapping Donkey must face his phobias when presented with the giant, fire-breathing dragon guarding Fiona; either he dies from terror or he triumphs with courage. He wisely chooses courage by pretending as if no dangerous situation actually faces him, allowing the donkey to overcome a horror that likely only continued due to his insistence of them. Secondly, upon Shrek's and Donkey's redeeming of Princess Fiona, the ogre finds the princess has plans for whomever saves her: to satisfy her desire for a (human) knight in shining armor. Throughout this storyline, Shrek faces his deep, perpetual misgivings of inhering as an ogre and struggles to determine how he will reveal his true identity to Fiona. An ongoing struggle occurs between himself and his reluctance of the truth, but eventually, Shrek courageously conquers his fear by telling the forbidden secret to Fiona. Children can realize from Donkey and Shrek that fear remains only as complicated as one makes it; if one sets his/her mind to overcoming something in particular, endless possibilities exist.
After the friendships and courage prevail, the three central characters at the heart of Shrek must take one more stretch of development: acceptance. Surprisingly, Fiona holds a dark secret of her own: due to a spell cast upon her years ago, she transforms into an ogre by night. In this storyline, Fiona must learn to hold acceptance for herself, and she must realize what beauty truly means: to simply act as one's self. Upon Fiona's learning of Shrek's desire to pursue a relationship with her, Fiona, knowing that acceptance of herself serves as the only platform for her love with Shrek to work, gives in to her inner demons of self-ridicule and hatred. Any child can pull from Fiona's transformation the meaning of beauty and the meaning of self-acceptance.
On the technical side, Shrek triumphs. Directors Adam Adamson and Vicky Jenson pace Shrek in a consistent and satisfying manner, evenly distributing the lessons learned by the central characters. These central characters spring to life thanks to brilliant voice work from Mike Myers (Shrek), Eddie Murphy (Donkey), and Cameron Diaz (Princess Fiona). Myers creates his Shrek as a lovable and troubled ogre whose green color not only serves as a skin color but perhaps his envy of other, "normal" beings. Murphy succeeds with his Donkey through recreating the high-strung persona that so many know the actor to have off screen. Cameron Diaz exudes charisma and innocence as Fiona, giving the princess/ogre a sense of power that many female characters in animated films lack. While the direction and voice work certainly elevate Shrek, the ultimate factor in the film succeeding lies in the screenplay, written by Ted Elliott, Terry Rossio, Joe Stillman, and Roger S.H. Schulman. The script never underestimates the intelligence of the viewer, combining the three previously spoken of elements with humor for adults and children alike. Capping it off with a constant tongue-in-cheek feel that pokes fun at classic Disney animated features, the fresh and entertaining screenplay delivers.
With Shrek, DreamWorks executive Jeffrey Katzenberg has certainly one-upped himself by creating an instant animated classic that will live on for ages to come.  A film that breaks stereotypes and creates a definite standard of its own, Shrek can certainly endure as one for the ages.

Bases:
Encoder
Encoder for Reed-Muller codes which encodes appropriate multivariate polynomials into codewords.
Consider a Reed-Muller code of order \(r\), number of variables \(m\), length \(n\), dimension \(k\) over some finite field \(F\). Let those variables be \((x_1, x_2, \dots, x_m)\). We order the monomials by lowest power on lowest index variables. If we have three monomials \(x_1 x_2\), \(x_1 x_2^2\) and \(x_1^2 x_2\), the ordering is: \(x_1 x_2 < x_1 x_2^2 < x_1^2 x_2\)

Let \((\beta_1, \beta_2, \ldots, \beta_q)\) be the elements of \(F\) ordered as they are returned by Sage when calling
F.list()

– (default:None
) The polynomial ring from which the message is chosen. If this is set toNone
, a polynomial ring in \(x\) will be built from the code parameters.

Windows Server 2003
Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Driver Development Kit (DDK)
Installation
Issues
The
method of generating dirs files has changed. The dirs file is now created by
the Microsoft® Windows®
Driver Development Kit (DDK) setup program during kit installation. If the dirs file needs to be
recreated after installation of the kit, a command-line tool (makedirs) is
supplied in the
The
DDK Build Environment
Use
the Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2003
Service Pack 1 (SP1) build environments in this DDK to build drivers
that use new features or functionality available only in
Windows Server 2003.
Use
the Microsoft Windows XP build environments in this DDK to build
drivers that do not use new functionality as described above, and that are
targeted for either Windows XP or both Windows Server 2003 and
Windows XP. The Windows XP build environment in this kit contains
minor updates to the DDK shipped with Windows XP with no service packs
installed.
Use
the Microsoft Windows 2000 build environments in this DDK to build
drivers that are designed to run on Windows 2000 only, or
Windows 2000 or later operating systems. The Windows 2000 build
environment in this kit includes an update of headers and libraries for
Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3).
The
environment variable DDK_TARGET_OS has been introduced to allow conditional
testing in the sources file to determine if a driver is being built
in the Windows 2000 build environments. This variable is set to
"WinNET", "WinXP", or "Win2K", respectively. For
more information, see "DDK_TARGET_OS" in the DDK documentation.
Building DDK Samples
(See also Sample Issues)
All
samples included in this DDK build are without errors or warnings in the
Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2003 build environments and function
properly on Windows Server 2003.
Some of the samples may use new
features or functionality present for the first time in
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1). These samples will not
build properly in the Windows® XP or Windows 2000 build
environments. Similarly, some
samples use features or functionality first present in Window XP. These
samples will not build properly in the Windows 2000 build environments.
If
you build the entire kit, samples that are not supported in the active build
environment will
not be built
because of one (or more) of the following issues:
The
result is that the correct set of drivers is always built when a Command Prompt
window is opened for a given build environment and the build -cZ command is issued from the DDK's src directory.
When
a Command Prompt window is opened for a given build environment, a user can
manually change directories using the cd command to the driver directory
that uses features or functionality that are not supported in that environment.
If the user attempts to build such a driver in an unsupported environment, and
the driver was blocked from building by a dirs file, the build command fails
with a variety of errors and/or warnings; this is the expected behavior.
Some
samples in the Windows Server 2003 SP1 DDK are not supported on
Windows XP and/or Windows 2000. These samples now generate a warning
when they are built in a non-supported build environment. The warning, which
appears in the build warning log, is in the following format:
BUILDMSG: Warning : The sample "
Developers
who want to build 64-bit Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) executable images
for the Intel Itanium processor family can use the 64-bit DDK build
environments for compiling and linking images. This includes EFI-compliant
system firmware, EFI applications and option ROMs. EFI drivers and applications
will only run in the pre-boot EFI firmware environment before
Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP is loaded. At this time, only
the 64-bit compiler and linker have been tested with the EFI Sample
Implementation releases and the Toolkit. For further information about EFI
specifications and sample source code, go to http://developer.intel.com/technology/EFI.
Additional
headers have been added to more completely match the headers shipped for the
Windows XP environment. This was necessary to allow some of the samples to
compile when built in the Windows 2000 build environment.
When
creating the Windows 2000 build environment using the Start menu, the
environment variable BUILD_OPTIONS is set to exclude many samples from default
compilation under this environment. This has the following effects and
limitations, which apply only to the Windows 2000 environment:
Compiling
and Linking
The
Microsoft® Windows® DDK ships a complete set of tools for building drivers.
These tools have been upgraded from those released with the Windows XP
DDK. As in the Windows XP DDK, Microsoft Visual C++® is no longer required
to be installed.
Use
the included tools for all Windows Server™ 2003,
Windows XP, and Windows 2000, drivers. This version of the DDK does
not support building drivers using a version of Visual C++
other than the one supplied with the DDK.
Some
Windows Millennium Edition (Me) drivers, such as Microsoft DirectX® drivers for
that platform, may require Visual C++ version 6.0 to be installed for use
regardless of the platform being used to build the drivers. Later versions of
Visual C++ will not work in the Windows Me build environment.
This
toolset has not been fully tested for use other than driver development.
Development work on this toolset is not complete.
The
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) DDK enables the /Gs
compiler option for both free and checked drivers built in the
Windows Server 2003 build environment. This compiler option
implements stack buffer overflow checking. To support this feature, the
Windows Server 2003 build environment set the driver entry point to
GsDriverEntry. GsDriverEntry performs some brief initialization, and then calls
the driver's DriverEntry entry point.
Experience
with using this switch at Microsoft has shown that the /Gs option adds very
little overhead to a kernel module and simultaneously helps to counter a
potential security risk.
Buffer
overflow checking can be turned off by setting the environment variable
BUFFER_OVERFLOW_CHECKS to 0 in the Windows Server 2003 build
environment.
The
<BASEDIR>\SetEnv64.bat file has been merged into a <BASEDIR>\SetEnv.bat
file. The Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP build environments
are supported with the <BASEDIR>\SetEnv.bat file; however, the command
line has been updated. For more information, see "Using the SetEnv.bat
Command Line" in
the DDK documentation.
Typically, drivers
should be built in the build environment of the earliest operating
system that the driver supports. Therefore, a driver that needs to run on
Windows XP and Windows 2000 should be built in the Windows 2000
build environment.
To enable your driver to use the additional features that are available on a more recent operating system, you can use technology-specific functions, such as IoIsWdmVersionAvailable() and MmGetSystemRoutineAddress().
Thorough testing is required to determine whether a driver built for a more recent operating system works properly on an earlier operating system.
The
kernel variable KeNumberProcessors indicates the number of active CPUs
in the system on which a driver is running. The definition for this variable
has been changed in the Windows XP versions of ntddk.h and wdm.h from a
pointer to a value. The Windows 2000 definition of this variable required
that KeNumberProcessors be
dereferenced (for example, *KeNumberProcessors).
As a result of the variable’s change in , drivers built in the
Windows XP build environment must not dereference this variable (for
example, KeNumberProcessors).
Drivers that fail to use KeNumberProcessors correctly receive an "illegal indirection" error at compile time.
Regardless
of the declaration used, drivers that properly reference KeNumberProcessors, according to the environment in which they are
built, work properly on Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and
Windows 2000. Therefore, a driver that properly references KeNumberProcessors, and that is built
in the Windows 2000 build environment, receives the proper value for this
variable when the driver is run on Windows Server 2003,
Windows XP, or Windows 2000.
Additional
improvements have been added to the Windows XP and later implementations
of singly-linked lists (SLists).
The Windows 2000 implementation of SLists remains in the DDK to enable
drivers built on Windows 2000 to run unchanged on Windows XP and
later systems. The functions affected are ExInterlockedPopEntrySList()
and ExInterlockedPushEntrySList(),
as well as ExAllocateFromPagedLookasideList(),
ExFreeToPagedLookasideList(), ExAllocateFromNPagedLookasideList(),
and ExFreeToNPagedLookasideList().
The
Windows XP and later implementation of these functions, by default, is
not binary compatible with the implementation on Windows 2000. If your
driver uses SLists and needs to run on Windows 2000, you should build your
driver in the Windows 2000 build environment. Optionally, you can build
your driver in another build environment and use the Windows 2000 SList
implementation by defining the symbol _WIN2K_COMPAT_SLIST_USAGE at compile
time, before including any other DDK header files.
The
DDK Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP build environments include a feature
that, when enabled, identifies obsolete functions in your driver. When
the environment variable DEPRECATE_DDK_FUNCTIONS is defined, the compiler
generates a warning message whenever an obsolete function or macro
from ntddk.h is referenced. For more
information about the
obsolete functions, see the DDK documentation.
The
compiler warning message shows both the line in your source file that invoked
the obsolete function and the line in ntddk.h
where the function is declared. The following example shows an error message:
\test\mydriver.c(1785)
: error C4996: 'RtlExtendedIntegerMultiply' was declared deprecated
winddk\WinXP\inc\ddk\wxp\ntddk.h(3106)
: error see declaration of 'RtlExtendedntegerMultiply'
Each
of the functions that have been declared deprecated in ntddk.h have comments that indicate which, if any, function or
mechanism you should use instead of the obsolete function. For more
information, see the DDK documentation. In the previous example, if you look
at line 3106 of ntddk.h, you'll find
the following declaration, which instructs you to use native 64-bit math
instead of RTL functions:
DECLSPEC_DEPRECATED_DDK //
Use native __int64 math
NTSYSAPI
LARGE_INTEGER
NTAPI
RtlExtendedIntegerMultiply
LARGE_INTEGER
Multiplicand,
LONG
Multiplier
);
This
feature helps developers discover functions in their drivers that are
obsolete. All of the functions that have been declared deprecated in the DDK
have been obsolete at least since Windows 2000. Only a subset of functions
that are obsolete have been actually declared as deprecated. There might be other
obsolete functions, both in ntddk.h
and in other header files that have not yet been declared deprecated. Refer to the
DDK documentation for functions that are obsolete
or currently supported.
The DDK, by default, will not use any pre-defined Include or Library paths
(as specified by the %include% and %lib% environment variables). This is due to
the stand-alone nature of the DDK and to avoid possible conflicts with other
installed source or compiler programs. Any drivers that need to alter the
search path for include files should use Includes=directive in the sources
file.

should be used for all WDM audio driver development. Please rebuild your driver
with this DDK to take advantage of recent changes and fixes. As of the
Windows Server 2003 SP1 release, this DDK supports
Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000. This DDK
does not support, nor do we recommend, the development of WDM audio drivers for
Windows 9x. The code samples that are
listed below will work interchangeably on the supported operating systems with
the INF files that are provided with the samples:
For
more information about the samples, see the Readme documentation that
accompanies each of these samples in the DDK.
To install the portion of the DDK that contains the WDM audio driver
samples, complete the following instructions:
1.
Run the Windows DDK setup
application.
2.
From the list of component groups that
the setup application displays, under Windows
DDK, select WDM Samples, and
then select Audio Samples.
When
setup completes, you will find the audio driver samples in the src\wdm\audio
subdirectory under the main directory of your DDK installation.
This
DDK release includes documentation for developing drivers to run with Windows
Millennium Edition (Me) and Windows 98, but it no longer provides build
environments for Windows Me or Windows 98. If you require those build
environments, and the related tools, refer to the
Windows XP SP1 DDK located in the archive
section on MSDN.
Windows
Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1), Windows XP, and Windows 2000 Compatibility
A
change was made in the memory manager starting with Microsoft® Windows® XP
that affects how functions such as ZwMapViewOfSection
and MmMapLockedPagesSpecifyCache
work.
In
the past (on Windows 2000 and Windows NT® Server 4.0), it was up
to the driver writer to ensure that the same physical page was not mapped with
different caching attributes, which is an error and can cause internal
processor corruption leading to undefined results.
In
Windows XP and later, the memory manager catches this problem.
That is, when mapping the same physical page, the page must always be mapped
with the same caching attribute. If conflicting attributes are specified by the
caller of the above APIs, the Windows memory manager automatically tries to
determine and use the correct attribute. If the correct attribute cannot be determined,
then ZwMapViewOfSection returns
STATUS_CONFLICTING_ADDRESSES and MmMapLockedPagesSpecifyCache
returns NULL.
Sample
Issues
The
samples moufiltr and kbdfiltr include INF files that
demonstrate the proper use of the "CatalogFile=" directive. The
catalog files (CATs) included in these samples are not true catalog files,
therefore, installation of the input samples moufiltr
and kbfiltr does not work. To
temporarily fix the installation, edit moufiltr.inf
and kbfiltr.inf by removing the line
that begins with "CatalogFile=" from the version section of each INF
file. Before distributing your drivers that use the "CatalogFile="
INF directive, you must obtain a true catalog file from WHQL.
When
the system locale has been set to Japanese, the following warnings occur:
cht\chajei\..\ime.rc(37)
: warning RC4093: unescaped newline in character constant in inactive code.
cht\phon\..\ime.rc(37) : warning RC4093: unescaped newline in character
constant in inactive code.
cht\quick\..\ime.rc(37) : warning RC4093: unescaped newline in character
constant in inactive code.
These
warnings appear in both the free and checked builds. These warnings do not
cause any problems in the resulting drivers.
Tools
When building a driver with PREfast, each invocation of the IoSetCompletionRoutine macro results in PREfast warning 314:
Incorrect order of operations: bitwise-or has higher precedence than the conditional-expression operator.
Ignore this warning. It is a false positive result, not a driver error. To suppress this warning, use the WINPFT filter. However, the filter might also suppress the reporting of similar, but valid, errors in the driver.
For
the Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) DDK, not all files may compile correctly
on a Windows® 2000 computer using the FusionManifestValidator tool. This
will be fixed for future releases.
For the Windows Server 2003 SP1 DDK, Itanium-based and x64-based platform versions of the IrDA tools are not available.
The Windows Server 2003 SP1 DDK documentation includes a new section, "Tools for Software Tracing," which provides updated documentation for Tracepdb, Tracelog, and Tracefmt, and new documentation, including a Software Tracing FAQ and instructions for tracing during system boot.
However, the documentation lists some tool parameters that do not work in the versions of the tracing tools included in the Windows Server 2003 SP1 DDK. Specifically, the following tool parameters do not work:
· tracelog -dpcisr
· tracelog -buffering
· tracepdb -s
We apologize for any inconvenience.

Luke Thornton - BIO
A Little Something About Me
Born and raised in Coventry, I went to Sidney Stringer Academy and 6th form, where i studied Level 3 BTEC ICT and A level Media. Initially i didn't want to go to University but had a sudden change of heart when i realised i wanted to make something of myself.
If you would like to have a look through my CV please do, it is attached below.
If something is unclear, or you want to discuss then pelase do not hesitate to contact me, with one of the various ways provided.
Download my CV
I am currently studying Multi-Media Computing at Coventry University, where i have worked on a range of different projects for my first year including games, a drawing app, 3D model of the building and more. Besides from my studies i spend my time cycling, playing and watching rugby and playing video games.
I work at JDW otherwise widely knows as Wetherspoons, as a bar associate. I deal with different customers everyday which requires a good set of customer service skills to handle them all. Along with the workload and difficulties of the job i actually really enjoy it. I have been there three months now and have never had a bad day with the company.
I work as part of a small team of around 15-20 people to keep the pub running and serving customers with a high satisfactory rate. We aim to give our customers a nice experience whilst also having a good time ourselves.
