Some background information:
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
This past year I have grown more than I ever thought possible, and a big part was due to the expansion of my mind. In justice to that, I’ve tried several new illegal substances, including MDMA, mushrooms, crystal meth, and acid. Now I have a greater understanding of their cultures, but also many new ways to look at the world.
I have many stories, most of which are probably only interesting to me and the people I've shared them with. Regardless, I wanted to put one in here and I figured my first trip with LSD would be the most beneficial; for you, for me. I do feel that most of the submissions in these vaults are very dry and I don’t believe you could ever explain a drug experience to someone who hasn’t used it before with just the simple words we’re given. Anyway, moving along…
Thanks to certain movies, music, and common curiosity I had always wanted to try acid. I never really took it seriously though. I thought it would give a nice high, strange and unusual visuals, and frequent use would burn me out, what I can only gather from word of mouth. I did however consider it to be the best thing I could get my hands on, the idea of altering my sight was unimaginable at the time.
The stuff is hard to come by. I’ve gotten my hopes up more than once and had them shattered. One time I even was tricked with fake sugar cubes. Well, the first day of the new year, 2004, a friend of mine scored a nice sheet of acid. I was so excited! A group of six gathered at my best friend‘s house. Those tripping took at least one hit, some more than others.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The trip:
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
We sat around for a good while, watching a Strawberry Shortcake movie. Though for little children, that show sneaks in some pretty trippy effects, we were all confused on what was actually there and what we were possibly be hallucinating. I had no idea what to expect, so I probably imagined a lot of it.
We moved into another room and lounged around listening to music, talking, and watching videos on the computer. The ones I remember us seeing were the Rejected video and the music video for Queen’s song, “Bicycle”. None of us were feeling it too much yet, quite some time had passed. I was wondering if that was it?
Suddenly, I realized everything was really enjoyable. My friends were funny, we all were laughing a lot, and we were bonding. Although the drug modifies most of the normal world, I didn’t notice the change at all for the longest time. Once we all realized something was different and the drug was working, we naturally went about whatever flowed. I started spacing out, conversation was all around me. One person couldn’t stand up straight. It seemed like good times to me. Everyone was happy. A lot of confusion though.
I was staring at my hand for a while, watching my perspective go back and forth. For a moment my fingers elongated. I was stunned. I broke the other’s conversation, “Wait!…” (Silence). “When did I become ET?” I thought my hand resembled that little alien. I did lots of staring at my thumb nail, bending my thumb forward and back, noticing the amazing change of shape. To this day it still works and I can’t tell if it’s a type of flashback I am having or just some natural kind of trick. It appears my thumb nails expands when I bend it away from me.
My perspective of the world, and what it had in it was different. People looked like… animals. I can’t explain it, but the basic anatomy and functions we possess seemed so alien and awkward. Everyone’s face and the room were so distorted, kind of like when I daydream and everything looses shape. I looked in the mirror at one point, stood unaware for a bit, lost in the previous moment, until I realized that the misshapen soup of eyes was actually my face. I panicked and looked away. The moment was happy again shortly after that.
I love to draw, so at one point I was squeezed and twisted between two close walls drawing on a sheet a paper, on the most creative of surfaces; my shoes especially. I drew some of the most lifelike and amazing (cartoon) images, I have it framed now. They all carry a very strange and creepy soulless feel to them. I love it! Ever since then my art has been very expressive, individual, natural, and full of life. Thank you, LSD.
We started to watch some Powerpuff Girls movie. I never got to see how well that went. I got a phone call, I checked the screen and it was my dad. I'm usually not as messed up as I think I am to others. I talked to him and he told me I’d have to come home that night, I had an appointment early the next day.
This was great. I was peaking at the most intense trip of my life and I have to go get in a car with my dad and play straight. I was freaking out, I wasn’t supposed to even be at the apartment I was tripping at. It was forbidden. My mind snapped into the most confusing state it’s ever been in. I was worried, terrified there was no way out and that I was going to loose at this game. I remember thinking at the time that my brain had lost all of the instincts and structure of thought that it had carried my entire life. I was constantly trying to rebuild my thinking process to a rational state of thought, but it’d get jumbled and I’d have to start all over again.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The trip gone bad:
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Two of my friends, a couple, had walked me to a curb where I could get picked up. I kept asking one of them if I was acting okay enough to get in a car with my dad. They assured me that I was going to be good. I didn’t believe them.  That thing was trying to escape I tell you!
I got in the car, the majority of this day was a haze, but this part is especially hard to remember. I remember thinking I was appearing nice and normal. At one point I felt the urge to scream something about a fence we were passing, but somehow I held it in. Somehow I snapped into some sort of phase where I was still tripping balls but no one could tell.
We got home and I ran out of the car before the other passengers could get out. Something that wasn’t questioned for some reason. I ran up to my room, avoiding some company that was visiting my house. I ran into my room and laid on my couch. I was extremely confused. I tried calling the place I just left, but that was too confusing for my end of the line and theirs. I was lost, forgotten. I sat there for what seemed like forever, and I really mean that, and nothing seemed possible to do. I thought, I might as well ride this trip out, but even that was hard. I’d lose track of what I was doing and get worried. I turned on the TV. None of the channels had a happy feel. Everything was giving off the wrong vibes. I saw a clip from Pee-Wee’s Playhouse and that was madness.
Then the worst thing happened. I was on a channel featuring a clip from the remake of the horror movie, The Fly. The scene of a decaying man was so terrifying. I somehow kept it together and changed the channel. Stand up comedy, how could I go wrong with that? Then something, I can’t explain too well, went on. I think the show was on mute because I remember no sound. I think it would’ve been too scary. Well, something about the man’s mouth seemed terrifying. I could hear the mumbling twisted sounds he was making in my head. I had to turn the TV off.
Much to my disadvantage, I left my CD case at my friends. I had no music. Nothing to calm me. I went into my bathroom and laid in my tub staring at a wall until it all toned down. Eventually, I brought my courage up enough to go to the computer downstairs. I needed to talk to someone. Luckily a friend, who had tried acid before, was on messenger to help me through my trip gone sour. I was very grateful for it. I could barely read the screen though.
The next thing about that night I remember is getting to sleep surprisingly easy. I woke up the next morning and looked in the mirror.  I was aggravated, but still amused. Every time I looked in the mirror for the following month, I could feel something not right. In fact, my eyesight can get sort of distorted and off-skew from time to time ever since then.
I had to go to that appointment, which was so frightening.  I was much more in control of myself though.
I felt an acid-like vibe every time I smoked marijuana for a while after that day. It took a while for my eyes to go back to (almost) normal again, but I didn’t care. Even though I can still visualize things differently, I welcome it and consider it a part of who I am.

MOULIN ROUGE! (2001) / *** 1/2
Directed by Baz Luhrmann. Screenplay by Luhrmann and Craug Pearce. Starring Nicole Kidman, Ewen McGregor, Richard Roxburgh. Running time: 128 minutes. Rated PG for mature theme by the MFCB. Reviewed on August 27th, 2001.
By SHANNON PATRICK SULLIVAN
Synopsis: In 1899, young playwright Christian (McGregor) travels to Paris where he befriends Toulouse Lautrec (John Leguizamo) and visits the Moulin Rouge, the infamous nightclub-turned-theatre run by Harold Zidler (Jim Broadbent). There, Christian falls in love with dancer and would-be actress Satine (Kidman), and must compete for her affections with the Moulin Rouge's odious benefactor, the Duke of Monroth (Roxburgh). It soon becomes evident that Christian's masterpiece will determine not only his future with Satine, but also the fate of the Moulin Rouge itself.
Review: Amazing! Astounding! A breath of fresh air! "Moulin Rouge!" is all this and more. Audiences may find its opening moments hard to process; its hyperkinetic pacing and raucous visual style is a vast departure from the mainstream. But most viewers should be able to attune themselves to Luhrmann's offbeat filmmaking before too long; those who expend the effort will find themselves plunged into a superior cinematic experience that makes it all worthwhile. Combining visual effects, model work, live action and any number of inventive camera angles and motions, Luhrmann gives "Moulin Rouge!" a distinctive appearance which nicely evokes the movie's setting of 1899 Paris and the "Bohemian Revolution". And though it may seem almost contradictory, Luhrmann's use of modern music -- everything from "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend" to "My Song" -- merely enhances the atmosphere (Broadbent's uproarious rendition of "Like A Virgin" is especially noteworthy). The performers hit all the right notes, especially McGregor, who achieves a nice mix of optimism and desperation. But ironically, so spoiled are we by the first half of "Moulin Rouge!" that when things calm down a bit and drift into more traditional melodrama thereafter, it comes as a disappointment. Still, "Moulin Rouge!" is an assault on the eyes and ears of rare truculence, and rarer pleasure.

DETAILS
This module manages the very early startup initialization that occurs
before C's main() function is invoked. This initialization typically
consists of setting hardware specific registers that control watchdog
timers, access to memory, cache settings, clock speeds, etc.
In addition to configuration parameters that allow the user to add custom
startup functions, this module also provides services that allow modules
to automatically add initialization functions to the startup sequence.
STARTUP SEQUENCE
The following list defines the startup sequence and, in particular, when
user provided startup functions are invoked:
- CPU is initialized and initial C stack setup is performed.
- The function specified by Startup.resetFxn is called.
Startup.resetFxn is called only on platforms where reset is performed
before running a program. For example, boot code for all TI targets
invokes Startup.resetFxn, but this function is not invoked on
Microsoft targets.
- C runtime initialization is performed.
- Functions from the array Startup.firstFxns are called.
- All Mod_Module_startup functions (see Module Initialization below)
are called in a loop until all such functions return
Startup_DONE or the maxPasses threshold is
reached.
- Functions from the array Startup.lastFxns are called.
- The function main is called.
The steps 4 - 6 occur during C++ static object initialization. Since
the ANSI C++ Language Standard does not provide a means to control
the order of C++ constructors, if a C++ constructor uses an XDC module,
there is no guarantee that the module's startup function already ran.
Therefore, any C++ constructor that needs XDC modules' services should
call Startup_exec first to force all startup related functions from
steps 4 - 6 to run, before the constructor uses any XDC module.
Also, if a target does not support C++, the steps 4 - 6 will not run
automatically. It is then up to a user's code to invoke Startup_exec,
possibly as the first step in main.
MODULE INITIALIZATION
Every module can optionally define a startup function which is called
before main(). Modules declare that they want to participate in this
startup sequence via the @ModuleStartup attribute in the module's spec
file. Modules that use this attribute must also implement the following
startup function:
Int Mod_Module_startup(Int state);
where "Mod" is the name of the module requesting startup support.
The parameter to the startup function serves as "state variable" whose
initial value will be
Startup_NOTDONE. If
startup() returns a value
other than
Startup_DONE, it will be called in a subsequent pass with this
return value passed in as
state. To ensure this process terminates,
no startup function is ever called more than
maxPasses
times.
For situations in which the startup of one module depends upon another
having completed its startup processing, the following function is
automatically defined for all modules and proxies:
Bool Mod_Module_startupDone();
where "Mod" is the name of some module or proxy. These predicates can
be used as guards inside of a startup function to probe whether a
particular module has completed its own startup processing. As a
convenience, the function Startup_rtsDone() probes the necessary set of
xdc.runtime modules required to support instance create() functions, and
should be called before any startup-time instance creation and/or
memory allocation is performed.
Int Mod_Module_startup(Int state)
{
if (!Startup_rtsDone()) {
return (Startup_NOTDONE);
}
.
.
.
return (Startup_DONE);
}
EXAMPLES
The following code shows how to add custom startup functions to this module.
var Startup = xdc.useModule('xdc.runtime.Startup');
Startup.resetFxn = "&myResetFxn";
Startup.firstFxns[Startup.firstFxns.length++] = "&myFirst";
Startup.lastFxns[Startup.lastFxns.length++] = "&myLast";
| const Startup_DONE |
|
Returned from module startup functions no further calls are required
#define Startup_DONE (Int)-1
| const Startup_NOTDONE |
|
Initial value of state argument passed to module startup functions
#define Startup_NOTDONE (Int)0
| typedef Startup_InitFxn |
|
Type of function assignable to firstFxns, lastFxns, or resetFxn
typedef Void (*Startup_InitFxn)();
| config Startup_firstFxns // module-wide |
|
List of functions called before module startup
SEE
| config Startup_lastFxns // module-wide |
|
List of functions called after module startup
SEE
| config Startup_maxPasses // module-wide |
|
Max number of iterations over the set of startup functions
extern const Int Startup_maxPasses;
| Startup_exec() // module-wide |
|
Execute the startup functions of all resident modules
DETAILS
Note that this function is idempotent, and can be called at any point
in the platform/target startup sequence in which "ordinary" C functions
can execute. By default, this function is called as part of the
standard C++ static initialization sequence.
If your target compiler does not support C++, this function must be
called at least once prior to using any xdc.runtime modules.
Simply call this function at the very beginning of main().
| Startup_rtsDone() // module-wide |
|
Query the state of the xdc.runtime package
DETAILS
This function is used by module startup functions to determine when it
is possible to use the xdc.runtime modules; e.g. to allocate memory,
create instances managed by some module (even those outside the
xdc.runtime package), call a Log function, etc.
RETURNS
Returns TRUE when all xdc.runtime modules have completed
initialization.
| Module-Wide Built-Ins |
|
// Get this module's unique id
Bool Startup_Module_startupDone();
// Test if this module has completed startup
// The heap from which this module allocates memory
Bool Startup_Module_hasMask();
// Test whether this module has a diagnostics mask
Bits16 Startup_Module_getMask();
// Returns the diagnostics mask for this module
Void Startup_Module_setMask(Bits16 mask);
// Set the diagnostics mask for this module
var Startup = xdc.useModule('xdc.runtime.Startup');

'Octanis 1: Progress Update: Lessons learned after Umeå' author: display_name: Sam login: sam email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>url: '' author_login: sam author_email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>wordpress_id: 172 wordpress_url: http://old.octanis.org/?p=172 date: !binary |- MjAxNS0wMi0yMiAxODowOTo0MCArMDEwMA== date_gmt: !binary |- MjAxNS0wMi0yMiAxODowOTo0MCArMDEwMA== categories: - Rover tags: [] comments: [] ---
As you might have seen, we've been working hard last month on our first driving prototype of Octanis 1. We went to Umeå, Sweden to test-drive it on snowy and icy plains. We worked hard for this first test and got a lot of information out of it.
We saw that our wheels are well designed for icy snow, but less for wet or fresh snow. The wheels are also a bit too small so that the slightest obstacle turns into a huge problem. Unfortunately we couldn't test the wheel strut mechanism, due to faulty motor controllers.
The mechanical design is simple but sturdy, struts did not bend, wheels were solid. Gears were difficult to print, but easy to assemble. Strut motors were under-powered and the gear system was reversible, leaving struts unfixed. Wheels a too heavy.
Nothing too funky to note on the qualitative thermal design. Next time, outside should be black, not gold.
Solar panels provided enough power while driving that our battery could recharge fully during the test. Current consumption per wheel motor was aroung 0.1 A. Motors performed well but the motor gearboxes broke after 3 days. One broke after falling from 1m, another broke after a simple drive test and yet another broke for unknown reasons.
We managed to get plain C code running fine on our Main Board computer but couldn't yet enjoy FreeRTOS. Porting FreeRTOS to the MSP430F5529 is not an easy task!
Next goal
Knowing what to fix motivates us even more for our next goal: Driving on the Aletsch Glacier - Date: 1. May 2015.
We'll be implementing many new features and advancing in our thermal, power and electronics design. Simulation will also play a bigger role for the next milestone! Follow us on Twitter and Facebook to stay up to date! Or come in on a Wednesday evening to Hackuarium to visit us.
And here what we need to get done for the Glacier test:


Request matching
Request Matching
There are scenarios when you would need to change your response based on some conditions met by fields on request objects. For example, if the end user passes an Authorization header, you'd want to send a 200 OK response if not you'd want to send a 401 Unauthorized resposne.
To do so you can utilize the power of handlebars again. Simply provide an if else condition and you are good to go. Consider following example.
You expect the user to call the endpoint /hello-world in two ways.
1) By simple making a GET request to /hello-world.; Or
2) By adding a query parameter name in the GET request to /hello-world.
i.e. /hello-world?name=John
Based on how the user calls the API, you'd want to send a different response. This can be done in following manner:
Create GET.mock file under the directory ${MOCKS_DIR}/hello-world. And paste following content:
{{#if request.query.name}}
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
X-Requested-By: Shubhendu Madhukar
Content-Type: application/json
{
"greeting": "Hello {{capture from='query' key='name'}}",
"phone": {{randomValue length=10 type='NUMERIC'}},
"dateOfBirth": "{{now format='MM/DD/YYYY'}}",
"test": "{{randomValue}}"
}
{{else}}
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
X-Requested-By: Shubhendu Madhukar
Content-Type: application/json
{
"greeting": "Hello World",
"phone": {{randomValue length=10 type='NUMERIC'}},
"dateOfBirth": "{{now format='MM/DD/YYYY'}}",
"test": "{{randomValue}}"
}
{{/if}}
Explanation
We are going to check if a query parameter with the key 'name' exists in the incoming request. We do so by adding an if condition
{{#if request.query.name}}
You can also check if that parameter equals a certain value
{{#if request.query.name='John'}}
Rest of the code is self explanatory, where if the condition is true, i.e. incoming request has a query parameter with key name
, the greeting
field in our response object would be Hello John
, else the greeting would be Hello World
.
Thus if the end user makes a GET request as /hello-world?name=John
, he'd get a greeting Hello John
. However, if the user calls /hello-world
without any name
, he'd get a greeting as Hello World

Sláinte (a Gaelic toast) to the Irish monks! They not only preserved the knowledge of ancient Greece in western Europe after the fall of the Roman Empire, they also logged a 1200 year climate record of the Emerald Isle from 431 to 1649 CE in the Irish Annals. The writings of those meteorology-minded monks were recently used to correlate volcanic activity to intense cold snaps in Ireland.
The monks wrote the Irish Annals as a record of religious feast days and major events, but the clerics also noted extreme cold weather events, such as heavy snow or prolonged ice cover on lakes.
For example in the Annals of Connacht from 1465 CE: “Exceeding great frost and snow and stormy weather this year, so that no herb grew in the ground and no leaf budded on a tree until the feast of St. Brendan [May16].”
The monks kept up their observations through the Black Plague and Viking raids, but stopped after English invaders suppressed the traditional culture of Ireland during the Tudor conquest in the 1600s.
LIST: An Alien’s Guide to Conquering the Earth Naturally
“It’s clear that the scribes of the Irish Annals were diligent reporters of severe cold weather, most probably because of the negative impacts this had on society and the biosphere,” Francis Ludlow of Harvard University said in a press release.
Ludlow was lead author of a study that paired Irish weather observations with volcanic eruptions. The scientists dated historic volcanic activity using info from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project about volcanic residues trapped in Greenland’s glaciers. The study was published in Environmental Research Letters.
For example, Ludlow’s team found that the eruption of the Peruvian volcano, Huaynaputina, in 1600 was associated with a few years of hard winter in Ireland. Chinese records also showed a cold winter after than eruption, according to a study published in the International Journal of Climatology.
“The possibility that tropical eruptions may result in severe winter cooling for Ireland highlights the considerable complexity of the volcano-climate system in terms of the regional expression of the response of climate to volcanic disturbances,” said Ludlow.
ANALYSIS: Volcanoes Erupting Around the World
In total, Ludlow’s team observed 48 volcanic events between the years 431 and 1649. Of those, 38 correlated closely in time with 37 extreme Irish climate observations.

How to Contribute to XStream
XStream is nothing without contributions from the user community. There are many ways to contribute. We are constantly working on the software and documentation, so it's a good idea to contact the team on the user or development mailing lists to avoid duplicating effort.
Documentation
One of the traditional weak points of open source software is the documentation. Any help with this aspect of the project will be welcomed with open arms, or at the very least with open email clients!
Examples
We are working on one or two examples of using XStream, but we can always do with more.
Feature Requests
We eat our own dogfood, but we're also happy to feed other people's dogs (if you'll excuse
a stretched dachshund metaphor!). If you want to request a new feature you can either
make a request through the issue tracker or by sending a message to the
development mailing list. The benefit of any new features
will be discussed on the mailing list, so its a good idea to sign up so that you can stick your oar in.
Bug Reports
You can report bugs through the issue tracker interface or the development mailing list. Additional brownie points are awarded for bug reports that include a failing unit test.
Bug Fixes
If you want lots of brownie points, send a fix along with your bug report and failing unit test. Bug fixes are best sent as patches that we can apply to the codebase. Remember to tell us which version the patch should be applied against, or we'll get very confused. To be accepted into the codebase, patches must be released under the same license as XStream itself.
New Code
If you have a new feature request, then we'll listen extra hard if you show us how it works. A new feature might be best implemented as a patch to an existing class or as a new class. The XStream API contains many extension points that allow new functionality to be integrated into the framework. We are rather anal about testing, so if you send us some code without any tests we will probably ask you to write the tests tests as well before we add it to the codebase.
Write Your Own XStream Extension
If you have a project that builds upon XStream we will be happy to announce your project on the XStream site.
Become a Committer
We follow the Codehaus manifesto when it comes to expanding the core team.

Data


When you import account files with the Migration Wizard, only email messages, calendar and contacts are imported. Other types, such as meeting requests, notes/journal, tasks, rules and alerts, personal distribution lists, and files are not imported.
The Import Options dialog is used to set rules about what files should be imported.
The checkboxes for Import Junk-Mail Folder and Import Deleted Items Folder determine whether or not to include mail currently in those folders in Outlook.
The check box for Ignore previously imported items can be used in cases where an earlier import operation was interrupted. If checked, the import process picks up where it left off, rather than importing duplicates.
Check the Date Filter check box to import mail only after a certain date. Enter the date. Messages before that date are not imported. This option lets you discard older messages.
In the Number of Mailboxes to import simultaneously field, set the import concurrence level. Since the import is likely to happen while both Exchange and Zmail servers continue to service other mail accounts, you should use care when increasing this number, as it may affect server performance.
For Domino migration, check Old-email ID, if the old email address of the account should be replaced by the new Zmail email address in all the meetings organized by that user
For Exchange migration, Two Calendar options can be set. Check the first box, if the old email address of the user should be replaced by the new email address in all the meetings organized by the user. Check the second box, if users' private appointments should be migrated. These appointments will not be marked as private on the Zmail server.
Click Next. The Begin Import Process? Message box is displayed. Click OK to begin importing.
Important: Users can continue to work in their mailbox while their mail is being imported, although any operation they do after that mail or folder has been imported are not be picked up on the Zmail side. To ensure that the imported mailbox is consistent with the old mailbox, users should be informed that their mailboxes is not available over some scheduled downtime period.

Abstract
Object discovery and modeling have been widely
studied in the computer vision and robotics communities.
SLAM approaches that make use of objects and higher level
features have also recently been proposed. Using higher level
features provides several benefits: these can be more discrim-
inative, which helps data association, and can serve to inform
service robotic tasks that require higher level information,
such as object models and poses. We propose an approach
for online object discovery and object modeling, and extend a
SLAM system to utilize these discovered and modeled objects as
landmarks to help localize the robot in an online manner. Such
landmarks are particularly useful for detecting loop closures
in larger maps. In addition to the map, our system outputs
a database of detected object models for use in future SLAM
or service robotic tasks. Experimental results are presented to
demonstrate the approach’s ability to detect and model objects,
as well as to improve SLAM results by detecting loop closures.

Adam Sandler’s college acting coach once told him to “choose another path”
The revelation came from an interview between Sandler and Brad Pitt
Adam Sandler’s college acting coach once told him to “choose another path”.
The revelation comes from Brad Pitt in a new interview with two actors as part of Variety‘s Actors On Actors series.
“This is my favourite Adam Sandler story that I heard from [film director] Bennett Miller,” Pitt says during the interview.
“It was that you were at NYU, and it was an acting coach, I believe. And he said to you, ‘I want to take you out for a beer.’ This is what I’m told. You guys went to a bar, and he kindly said to you: ‘Think about something else. You have to choose another path.’ Truth?”
Sandler then confirmed that the incident was true, before Pitt continued with the story.
Adam Sandler in ‘Billy Madison’
“There’s a second part to this story. This is why it’s my favorite Adam Sandler story, and I think it says a lot about you. That you ran into him at your height, when you’re getting the ultimate payday, and you’re with a bunch of friends, out at a bar. Anyone would think that’s the opportunity where you rub it in his face.
“And reportedly, what you did was you introduced him to your friends, and you said: ‘This is the only teacher to ever buy me a beer.’ True?”
Once again, Sandler confirms that it did in fact happen.
Adam Sandler’s new film with The Weeknd, Uncut Gems, is arriving next January.
Brad Pitt meanwhile, starred in 2019’s Ad Astra, a film NME called “a sci-fi masterpiece”, and Quentin Tarantino’s new film Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.

In Scheme, strings are a mutable data type.
Although it "is an error" (R5RS and
R7RS) to use
string-set!
on literal strings or on strings returned by
symbol->string
, and any attempt to do so "should raise an
exception" (R6RS), all
other strings are mutable.
Although many mutable strings are never
actually mutated, the mere possibility of mutation complicates
specifications of libraries that use strings, encourages precautionary
copying of strings, and precludes structure sharing that could otherwise
be used to make procedures such as substring
and
string-append
faster and more space-efficient.
This SRFI specifies a new data type
of immutable texts. It comes with efficient and portable sample
implementations that guarantee O(1) indexing for both sequential and
random access, even in systems whose string-ref
procedure
takes linear time.
The operations of this new data type include analogues for all of the non-mutating operations on strings specified by the R7RS and most of those specified by SRFI 130, but the immutability of texts and uniformity of character-based indexing simplify the specification of those operations while avoiding several inefficiencies associated with the mutability of Scheme's strings.

Based on the Wikipedia the SIR model is one of the simplest compartmental models, and many models are derivatives of this basic form. The model consists of three compartments: S for the number of susceptible, I for the number of infectious, and R for the number of recovered or deceased (or immune) individuals. This model is reasonably predictive for infectious diseases which are transmitted from human to human, and where recovery confers lasting resistance, such as measles, mumps, rubella, and Covid-19.

Heartbreaking image of little girl in princess dress queueing for food on Halloween
Queues of homeless people waited in the lashing rain for a hot meal from the Feed Our Homeless charity on a cold and dark evening
by Danya Bazaraa, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/danya-bazaraa/A charity has shared a heartbreaking photo of a little girl in a princess dress queueing for food on Halloween night.
Feed Our Homeless in Dublin, Ireland, posted pictures of people lining up to get a meal at their food station yesterday evening.
Huge queues of homeless people waited in the lashing rain for hot food - as well as support from the charity.
Among those waiting, a young girl was photographed in what appears to be a fancy dress princess gown with a coat over the top.
Next to her stood an even younger boy also looking to be fed.
Feed Our Homeless said: "It's [been] a very busy Thursday night for our team of volunteers here at our food station outside the bank of Ireland on college Green.
"As our team of volunteers set up here tonight at 7.30pm we had a huge queue of homeless people with children waiting in the lashing rain for hot food also support from our team."
The organisation's support team was also on site until 10.30pm offering support and advice to people.
"Our Outreach team will be [giving] out hot drinks, sandwiches, also other supplies to help rough sleepers around the city get through the miserable wet and cold night ahead," they said last night.
Other photographs shared on the charity's Facebook page included volunteers on the streets giving hot drinks to homeless people.
Some of the items offered were biscuits, sweets, crisps and orange juice.
Feed Our Homeless are a non profit, non funded, voluntary organisation operating six nights weekly in Dublin City Centre.
Their services include a soup kitchen, outreach and advocacy service as well as educational school workshops.


Process execution consists of a cycle of CPU execution and I/O wait. Processes alternate between these two states. Process execution begins with a CPU burst. That is followed by an I/O burst, which is followed by another CPU burst, then another I/O burst, and so on. Eventually, the final CPU burst ends with a system request to terminate execution.
Whenever the CPU becomes idle, the operating system must select one of the processes in the ready queue to be executed. The selection process is carried out by the short-term scheduler, or CPU scheduler. The scheduler selects a process from the processes in memory that are ready to execute and allocates the CPU to that process.
The dispatcher is the module that gives control of the CPU to the process selected by the short-term scheduler. This function involves the following:
Switching context
Switching to user mode
Jumping to the proper location in the user program to restart that program
The simplest of all scheduling algorithms. The process that requested the CPU first is allocated the CPU first.
1.Average waiting time under FCFS policy is quite long.
2.A smaller process has to wait for a large amount of time before a bigger process that has been allocated CPU finishes its execution.
3.Not suitable for time sharing systems where each user gets a share of CPU at regular intervals.
The scheduling criteria under this policy depends on which process has the shortest-next-CPU-burst. It is an optimal way of CPU scheduling, i.e it gives the minimum average waiting time for a set of processes. If two process have the same burst time left, FCFS is used to resolve the tie.
1.It often cannot be implemented at the level of short-term CPU scheduling as there is no way to know the length of the next CPU burst.
2.The next CPU burst length is thereby approximated using statistical techniques like exponential average
This is the preemptive version of Shortest Job First scheduling. A newly arrived process in the ready queue may have a burst time lesser than that of the current process getting executed. In such a case, the current process is preempted and the newly arrived process is scheduled to execute. Similar to SJF, FCFS is used to resolve the tie here.
This is the opposite of Shortest Job First scheduling. It selects for execution the process with the largest execution time. It can be preemptive or non preemptive.
1.The disadvantage with this algorithm is the total execution time of the process must be known before the execution.
There is a chance for starvation of processes which have lesser execution time when the longer processes are continually added.
It is the preemptive version of the Largest job first scheduling.
A more general case of the SJF scheduling where the priority was based on burst time. Each process is associated with a priority and CPU is allocated to the process with highest priority. Equal priority processes are scheduled in FCFS order. A newly arrived process is simply put in the ready queue based on its priority and does not interrupt the currently executing process.
1.In a heavily loaded computer system, a steady stream of high priority processes can leave some low priority processes waiting for a long time. This is called as indefinite blocking or starvation.
2.A solution to the problem of indefinite blocking is called aging, where priorities of processes that wait in the system for a long time are increased.
It is a preemptive version of the priority scheduling algorithm. The priority of newly arrived processes are compared with the currently executing process. If the priority is higher, then the currently executing process is preempted and the newly arrived process executes
The ready queue is treated as a circular queue. The CPU scheduler goes around the queue, allocating the CPU to each of the processes a time period of 1 quantum. If the burst time left for a process is less than the time quantum, then the process will itself release the CPU voluntarily. If the burst time left is more than 1 time quantum, the timer for that process will go off and a context switch is forced. This algorithm is preemptive by its nature.
1.Performance depends heavily on the time quantum. A very large time quantum will it make it effectively an FCFS algorithms and a very short time quantum will force a very large number of context switches.
2.A rule of thumb is that 80% of the CPU bursts must be shorter than the time quantum.
1.The response ratio of all the processes are calculated and the scheduler selects the process with the highest response ratio.
2.A process once selected will run till its completion.
3.Response ratio = (Waiting time so far + Burst Time)/Burst time.
4.Shortest processes are favoured.
As the waiting time increases, the response ratio increases and the longer jobs can get past short jobs.

Understanding innodb_buffer_pool_size
There are lots of parameters when you try to optimize your mysql but the most important one is Innodb Buffer Pool. It is defined as %70 of the your server total RAM but we need more details. Let’s first check the definition given from MYSQL:
InnoDB maintains a storage area called the buffer pool for caching data and indexes in memory. Knowing how the InnoDB buffer > pool works, and taking advantage of it to keep frequently accessed data in memory, is an important aspect of MySQL tuning.
The idea is keeping innodb_buffer_pool_size bigger as possible that doesn’t block other OS and programs running properly. This will make InnoDB work like a in-memory database and increase the performance a lot. At first InnoDB will take all the required data from disk and access it from memory in the future queries. The default value for InnoDB is 8MB so you might want to update it as a bigger number which fits well for your system.
Before going exact details there is a wrong assumption about Innodb Buffer Pool. People think that if they give enough space for keys to be in the memory and there will be very low IO accesss. The idea is searching keys fast as much as and retrieve data with index directly. Let’s assume you have a query that runs in 600ms and 450 ms is searching keys, 75 ms is getting data from disk and last 75 ms is fetching data from server. Providing proper innodb_buffer_pool_size will make sure you don’t access disk for index search and that 450 ms will decrease to 30 ms (it really depends on your keys and structure) so total time for query is 180 ms now. You still have IO at this rate but it is only retrieving data from disk which can be acceptable.
I will not get into details how InnoDB manages the pool and LRU algorithm but directly give info about what value we should choose. Run this query to get an recommended memory:
In my system it returns the value:
Be careful with these values since InnoDB reserves additional memory for buffers and control structures, so that the total allocated space is approximately 10% greater than the specified size. When you have 50 GB RAM and you give 48GB as pool, you will probably get OS paging problems.
This is a simple value that you should better have this value to reach all data properly with the help of Innodb Buffer Pool. Let’s assume you set the value 45GB and you want to make sure that these resources are not wasted and buffer pool is used. At this point we should check the buffer pool usage value. It must be run after the all the heavy operations are done for your system. If your system is on high load only on weekends then you should wait for the run this query at least one or two week so you would get at least a minimal idea how the system will respond on load.
For my system it returns:
It might be %100 (45G) or some other value depending on the system and you should take action according to this value. It means that even though your system has 45GB of indices you only access 22GB of it at this time area. Hence lowering the value as 25GB should be okay the system to run at almost the same performance. However be careful with the value and keep observing the value for some time and make sure it doesn’t go up quickly after for a week etc.
There are some other parameters that needed to be adjusted as well but I will not get into these details.  However you only have 11.5GB data in your database and it seems a bit odd to have such a big number. The reason for this you probably have too much or redundant index for your tables. You should reconsider the indices and adjust them to a proper state which doesn’t make your operations slower and reserve so much space.
One other issue primary keys of very big tables. Let’s say we have 20 tables with average 1 million to 5 million rows data but only two of them have 200 million rows data per table. At total you should have 450 million rows and probably with indices it would require around 50GB inno db pool. If you don’t access these tables heavily or they are accessed by a big group (like 1.5 million records of logs belong to one operation) then you should not need a really big buffer pool. However a small amount of pool will be filled with one group data easily and other operations become slower at that time. At least try to give a proper amount of memory to handle the one big operation and it’s additional queries. Of course it is totally another discussion topic why don’t you use some other systems (Cassandra or a different NOSQL maybe ) to store big tables to create results and put these values into mysql to be access etc.
To sum up; run the query and get a recommended value for your innodb_buffer_pool_size. If you think it is enormous for your database then try to optimize your indices and lower the number of key values. Also be careful with the very high values since it might throttle the system and cause bigger problems like uptimes. Also check other parameters to use the memory you attached more efficiently.
