City mandates face coverings
City Council met for two emergency sessions in July to pass an ordinance mandating the use of masks in public spaces to slow the spread of COVID-19.
The ordinance, passed July 13, requires face coverings to be worn in businesses, places of worship, city-owned buildings, public transportation and outside when social distancing is not possible, according to a previous Post report.
Those who do not comply with the order can receive a $100 fine and be charged with a misdemeanor.
The ordinance does not apply to Ohio University students, administrators or faculty. Those on OU property, however, are subject to the university’s interim face coverings policy.
Racism declared public health crisis
The Council passed a resolution June 22 declaring racism a public health crisis in Athens.
The resolution came amid weeks of protests over police brutality, including protests in Athens. It outlines several ways to promote racial equality in Athens, such as providing workplace bias training to all elected officials, employees and staff in Athens.
The resolution also requests Mayor Steve Patterson create a working group to promote racial equality, especially in hiring and promoting employees.
Council will also review Athens City Code with a racial bias lens, along with all of its internal practices.
City-wide composting program launches
Council passed an ordinance May 26 adding a composting service to Athens’ solid waste contract.
The program costs all refuse and recycling account holders an additional $6.33 fee a month for composting pick-up and a five-gallon compost bucket. Those enrolled in the program have the ability to opt out at any time and no longer be charged.
The service began in July and was added as the city renewed its waste management contract with the Athens-Hocking Recycling Center. The contract also resulted in an increase of $4.50 for refuse and recycling, according to a previous Post report.
Councilmembers debated for several weeks over if the composting program should be opt-in or opt-out. Opt-out was decided so Athens residents could minimize their costs during the COVID-19 pandemic if necessary.
Parklet pilot program approved
Council passed an ordinance for a parklet pilot program June 15 to provide more socially distanced outdoor seating Uptown during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Parklets, sidewalk extensions that give businesses extra outdoor space, can be applied for and used in Uptown Athens through August and September.
Athens City Planner Paul Logue said the city had previously floated the idea of using parklets, but they could be critical during the COVID-19 pandemic. The parklets would allow for more social distancing outside and could help make up lost revenue.
Athens Law Director Lisa Eliason said, however, alcohol may not be able to be served on the parklets. Many liquor licenses in Athens only allow businesses to serve liquor inside of their buildings.
Logue also suggested the city offset the loss in parking by providing an additional 34 spaces from a secure lot on College Street, according to a previous Post report.

"Pleasantville" - A Nice Place to Visit by Homer Yen (c) 1998
If you ever tune into Nick at Nite, it's likely that you'll catch some of those classic tv programs that espoused nothing but heaps of family values. Remember Make Room for Daddy or the Brady Bunch or Leave It To Beaver? Everything was 'swell', a heated romance consisted of holding hands, and it never rained. Pleasantville is another one of those shows featuring a never-ending string of smiles and homemade chocolate chip cookies.
Dave is a big fan of this program and has uncanny knowledge of each and every episode. He is especially excited to learn that they'll be having a Pleasantville marathon on tv. But this doesn't bode well with Jen, his outgoing and popular sister. An important date is coming over and she wants to watch MTV. As they struggle for the remote, a surge of energy transports them into Pleasantville in a Twilight Zone-esque sort of way. Now, they become Bud and Mary Sue, children in an all-too-perfect family and residents of an all-too-perfect community. What's worse, their whole world is in black and white.
They have little choice but to go along with what's happening while they try to figure a way out of this unlikely universe. Bud/Dave wants to play it safe and uses his knowledge of the episodes to make sure that the universe remains unchanged. When the Captain of his basketball team asks him a question, for example, he knows what will happen in the near future because he's already seen the episode. However, Mary Sue/Jen completely dislikes the sterile environment. "We are stuck in Nerdville," she exclaims and intends to inject a little life into the community. However, by stirring things up, things begin to change. She introduces into this staid environment shocking, never-before experienced feelings such as passion. Bud/Dave objects at first but then realizes that this newfound sense of existence begins to start a revolution. A renaissance of emotion is underway. For those that feel it, their lives are rewarded with color and an imagination that they could never before attain. However, some want to keep Pleasantville in its original state. This situation divides the community, and it is up to Bud/Dave to find a way for the townsfolk to embrace this new transformation.
"Pleasantville" has many niceties. At its core, it's a movie about discovery. It's sends out a nice message that promotes freedom to explore and to take risks. It paces itself well as the local citizens slowly make their own discoveries of who they are and of the world around them. It's not a movie that will make you kick your heels when you walk out of the theatre. But the movie does live up to its name.

I made a silly .lean file for mathematical category theory.
https://gist.github.com/EdAyers/87fa2de6ddfc13ab273af52c21d48681
Two questions;
- what is the best way to solve the lemmas with sorry
in them?
- doesn't the definition of Cat
break the type universe hierarchy? And if so why doesn't lean care?
Also any comments on style / readability would be appreciated
Just to comment that fresh this week we've had a huge category theory PR accepted into mathlib: https://github.com/leanprover/mathlib/commit/9b1be732e122d371100b0df479ca000c2a3f73b0
ok thanks I can compare it to my code
Hi @Kevin Buzzard, sorry to disappoint, but that PR that was merged was only the first epsilon of the actual category theory library (just 3 files!) It's still a long way to go anything useful to you is there. :-)
There's a second PR waiting, if anyone feels like giving some comments.<https://github.com/leanprover/mathlib/pull/239>.
I made a silly .lean file for mathematical category theory.
https://gist.github.com/EdAyers/87fa2de6ddfc13ab273af52c21d48681
Who keeps the record of all beginners who had category theory as their first idea of something to formalize?
If you want to add to the list of "stuff which it looks like a good idea to be the first thing to formalise" then you seem to be able to add basic number theory to that list. My students ended up in coercion hell going from nat to int to zmod n
Heh, the first two things I tried to formalize were fibrations of categories (that went poorly) and FLT for n=4
At least FLT for n=4 is a statement about nat.
The proof might not stray too far from nat either
oh actually maybe it strays into int a fair bit...
I managed to nearly avoid using int, I think, but it might have been better to use it more. Lots of annoying inequality side conditions to check when doing algebraic manipulations over nat
I chose cats because that's the area of maths I'm strongest at and because it forces me to use lots of dependent-type features
I don't disagree that it's a logical choice when starting to play with a DTT prover, but it really is so common it's almost a joke
I'm sure I've seen this happen at least 8 times
Another fun one is making vec n
and matrices and so on.
Those might be in TPIL though
So I would like to say that I have some category, and say that it has some object. It's not obvious how to even declare a variable of type category
. What I would like to do is to define the type of terminal objects of a given category. In type theory I guess I would do something like the dependent type
C:category |- terminalObj(C): C.obj
where C.obj is the type of objects of C.
(I should say I'm using category_theory
in mathlib)
Then terminalObj(C) := Σ t: C.Obj Π_{x:C.Obj} Π_{f,g:Hom(x,t)} f = g
In lean, we have category A
as the type of categories where A
is the type of objects. (That is, they are "partially unbundled" with the type of objects exposed.) Then you can define a structure is_terminal (X : A) : Type
with fields for the unique map in, and the statement of uniqueness
Ah, that makes sense. Particularly as Cat is fibred over Class by sending a category to its class of objects, so that it makes sense to talk of the dependent type A:Type |- category(A): Type.
Yes, what you call fibration is what we call unbundling
Terminal objects (along with every other shape of (co)limit) are on the horizon. If you want to peek, and don't mind peeking at often-broken code, see the working
branch of https://github.com/semorrison/lean-category-theory/tree/working/src/category_theory/limits.
("working" here is as-in "I'm working on it", not "it is working"...)
I think wip
is less susceptible to misinterpretation
ok, I'll use that in future! thanks.
@Scott Morrison thanks, I'll check it out

The RCurl Package
RCurl_1.96-0.tar.gz (20 June 2014)
Manual
The RCurl package is an R-interface to the libcurl library that provides HTTP facilities. This
allows us to download files from Web servers, post forms, use HTTPS
(the secure HTTP), use persistent connections, upload files, use
binary content, handle redirects, password authentication, etc.
The primary top-level entry points are
However, access to the C-level routines is also available
via the R code, and one can specify options to all of the
libcurl operations to control how they are performed.
Documentation about the options and commands
can be found at the libcurl web site
R functions can be specified to collect text from both the
response and its headers. This can be used to customize the processing
of the requests and feed the results to higher-level processing
(e.g. HTML parsing via the htmlTreeParse function in the XML package).
This package will be used to implement the low-level communication
in the SSOAP package
and other high-level packages that utilize HTTP to exchange
requests and data.
Documentation
-
- Paper
outlining the package with some advanced examples.

-
-
- FAQ
-
Other Approaches
- httpRequest
- The httpRequest is a package on CRAN that implements a small
part of HTTP directly in R using sockets.
- httpClient
- I have developed the httpClient package using
R code and connections that supports additional
aspects of R and HTTP, such as cookies, character escaping, and also
SSL for HTTPS. I haven't released the code (favoring the
approach of building on existing C code) but can make it available if anyone
is interested.
While having code in R makes it easier to understand, explore and
modify, it is probably better to use existing specialized libraries
like libcurl rather than doing this ourself. We gain speed and a
large development community that cares about getting things right and
testing them.
We will explore the use of libwww
Issues
Using the opaque data structures of the libcurl infrastructure
means that we cannot easily access the file descriptors used
in the communication. This makes it somewhat more difficult
to integrate these streams into an R even loop
(e.g. REventLoop).
We can potentially turn them into regular connections
(if the internal API is made "public").
License
This is distributed under the BSD license
in the same spirit as libcurl itself.

Is there extra-time in the Rugby World Cup final 2019?
England are gunning for glory against South Africa at the International Stadium in Yokohama
by Jacob Murtagh, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/jacob-murtagh/England and South Africa played out a nervy first half in the Rugby World Cup final in Japan.
The Springboks went in 12-6 up at the break courtesy of four penalties from Handre Pollard, while Owen Farrell replied with a pair of his own for the Red Rose.
Eddie Jones's men have it all to do if they are to emulate England's 2003 success.
Rules dictate that if the two countries cannot be separated after 80 minutes, there will be extra-time, sudden death and then a kicking competition.
Each team would have to nominate five kickers, from those still on the field, each of whom would have one shot each to kick a goal from one of three spots.
If the scores were still level after five kicks it would then go to sudden death.
England were dealt an early blow when tighthead prop Kyle Sinckler was knocked out cold while attempting a tackle.
The 26-year-old was trying to stop South Africa winger Makazole Mapimpi in his tracks, but made contact with team mate Maro Itoje's shoulder and fell to the ground instead, with referee Jerome Garces immediately calling a halt to play.
After medical treatment he managed to walk off the field, with Dan Cole has replacing him.

How should I set the language of the content in my HTML page?
This page describes how to mark up an HTML page so that it gives information about the language of the page. It begins with an overall summary, then provides additional details in subsequent sections.
Always use a language attribute on the html
tag to declare the default language of the text in the page. This is inherited by all other elements. For example:
Note that you should use the html
element rather than the body
element, since the body
element doesn't cover the text inside the document's head
element.
When the page contains content in another language, add a language attribute to an element surrounding that content. This allows you to style or process it differently. For example:
Use the lang
attribute for pages served as HTML. (For pages served as XML, including XHTML 1.x and HTML5 polyglot documents, see Choosing the right attribute.)
Use language tags from the IANA Language Subtag Registry. You can find subtags using the unofficial Language Subtag Lookup tool. (more)
In some parts of your code you may have a problem. If you have multilingual text in the title
element, you cannot mark up parts of the text for different languages because the title
attribute only allows characters – no markup. The same goes for multiple languages in attribute values. There is no good solution for this at the moment.
Use nested elements to take care of content and attribute values on the same element that are in different languages. (more)
You should never use a meta
element with the http-equiv
attribute set to Content-Language
to indicate the language of a page, but in certain circumstances you may want to serve language information with the HTTP header to indicate the intended audience of your page. Whether or not you use the HTTP header, you should always declare the language of the text in a page using a language attribute on the html
tag. For more information see the companion article, HTTP headers, meta
elements and language information.
This section provides more detailed information on a variety of topics related to declaring language in HTML.
Occasionally the language of the text in an
attribute and the element content are in different languages. For example, at the top right corner of this article there are links to translated versions of this page. The
link text shows the language of the target page using the language of the target page, but an associated title
attribute contains a hint in the
language of the current page:
If your code looks as follows, the language
attributes would actually indicate that not only the content but also the title
attribute text is in Spanish.
This is obviously incorrect.
Instead, move the attribute containing text in a different language to another element, as shown in this example, where the a
element inherits the default en
setting of the html
element.
If you want to specify the language of some content but there is no markup around it, use an element such as span
, bdi
or div
around the content.
Here is an example:
To be sure that all user agents recognize which language you mean, you need to follow a standard approach when providing language attribute values. You also need to consider how to refer in a standard way to dialectal differences between languages, such as the difference between US English and British English, which diverge significantly in terms of spelling and pronunciation.
The rules for creating language attribute values are described by an IETF specification called BCP 47. In addition to specifying how to use simple language tags, such as en
for English or fr
for French, BCP 47 describes
how to compose language tags that allow you specify regional dialects, scripts and other variants related to that language.
BCP 47 incorporates, but goes beyond, the ISO sets of language and country codes. To find relevant codes you should consult the IANA Language Subtag Registry.
For a gentle but fairly thorough introduction to the syntax of BCP 47 tags, read Language tags in HTML and XML. For help in choosing the right language tag out of the many possible tags and combinations, see Choosing a language tag.
If your document is HTML (ie. served as text/html
), use the lang
attribute to set the language of the
document or a range of text. For example, the following sets the default language to French:
When serving XHTML 1.x or polyglot pages as text/html
, use both the lang
attribute and the xml:lang
attribute together every time you want to set the language. The xml:lang
attribute is the standard way to identify language information in XML. Ensure that the values for both attributes are identical.
The xml:lang
attribute is not actually useful for handling the file as HTML, but takes over from the lang
attribute any time you process or serve the document as XML. The lang
attribute is allowed by the syntax of XHTML, and may also be recognized by browsers. When using other XML parsers, however (such as the lang()
function in XSLT) you can't rely on the lang
attribute being recognized.
If you are serving your page as XML (ie. using a MIME type such as application/xhtml+xml
), you do
not need the lang
attribute. The xml:lang
attribute alone will suffice.
The information in this section is less likely to be useful, but is provided for completeness.
In addition to including an in-page language attribute on the html
tag (which you should always do), you may also have come across language declarations in the HTTP header (which is served with the page), or as meta
elements.
Importantly, the in-page language declaration always overrides the HTTP information when it comes to determining the actual language of the text, but the HTTP information may provide more general information about the intended use of the resource. Use of meta
elements in the HTML page for declaring language is not recommended.
For information about Content-Language
in HTTP and in meta
elements see HTTP headers, meta
elements and language information.
Just for good measure, and for the sake of thoroughness, it is perhaps worth mentioning a few other points that are not relevant to this discussion.
Firstly, it is not possible to declare the language of text using CSS.
Secondly, the DOCTYPE
that should start any HTML file may contain what looks to some people like a language declaration. The DOCTYPE
in the example below contains the text EN, which stands for 'English'. This, however, indicates the language of the schema associated with this document – it has nothing to do with the language of the document itself.
Thirdly, sometimes people assume that information about natural language could be inferred from the character encoding. However, a character encoding does not enable unambiguous identification of a natural language: there must be a one-to-one mapping between encoding and language for this inference to work, and there isn't one. For example, a single character encoding could be used for many languages, eg. Latin 1 (ISO-8859-1) could encode both French and English, as well as a great many other languages. In addition, the character encoding can vary over a single language, for example Arabic could use encodings such as 'Windows-1256' or 'ISO-8859-6' or 'UTF-8'.
All these encoding examples, however, are nowadays moot, since all content should be authored in UTF-8, which covers all but the rarest of languages in a single character encoding.
The same goes for text direction. As with encodings and language, there is not always a one-to-one mapping between language and script, and therefore directionality. For example, Azerbaijani can be written using both right-to-left (Arabic) and left-to-right (Latin or Cyrillic) scripts, and the language code az
can be relevant for either. In addition, text direction markup used with inline text applies a range of different values to the text, whereas language is a simple switch that is not up to the tasks required.

Workplace shooting spree kills 7
Newsday | Submitted by: Deez
"A gunman on the verge of losing his job opened fire at an auto parts warehouse Wednesday, killing six people, authorities said. The attacker also was killed, hospital officials said. ... 'A disgruntled employee who had either been terminated or was going to be terminated returned to the business, and that's where the shooting took place,' Camden said. ... police and the man exchanged gunfire inside and outside the building. Police tried to negotiate with the man but he refused, Camden said."
 Instead, he announced that the videotapes targeted by authorities -- which he nicknamed 'The Federal Five' -- were for sale at a discount online. Zicari's case, which gets under way today in Pittsburgh, is among the first being tackled by the Justice Department in a renewed fight against pornography. ... Annual rentals and sales of adult videos and DVDs grew from $1.6 billion in 1992 to more than $4 billion in 2002... In California's gubernatorial recall race, notorious pornographer Larry Flynt is a candidate for the office, as is adult film actress Mary Carey."

Jehovah's Witnesses adapting tactics
Seattle Post-Intelligencer | Submitted by: Reid Fleming
"Jehovah's Witnesses once conveyed their message almost exclusively door-to-door. But the increase in high-rise apartments -- coupled with a declining chance of finding anyone at home during the day -- has prompted new tactics. People now are as likely to hear about the coming kingdom of God at a gas station or Laundromat as they are at their front door. The group's aggressive methods have helped propel them into one of the nation's fastest-growing religions. They've also irritated some people."

To restore the fabric of time to when things made sense it's imperative to return to the origins of the universe or try your luck in a superposition - be sure to stretch first and don't forget your towel!

THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE!!
When the things go wrong as they sometimes must!
When the circumstances crush every effort to dust
When you lose no matter how hard you try
When you are alone and it is so easy to cry
You must realise that in any design
Not every thread is meant to shine
So give yourself another chance
Rise again and change your stance
As the thread would certainly be bright one day
When you will win and would proudly say
"Aim the target and don't limit your scope
As my dear friend there is always hope!!"

TEA WITH MUSSOLINI (PG). (Universal/UIP) Director: Franco Zeffirelli Stars: Joan Plowright, Maggie Smith, Cher, Judi Dench, Baird Wallace, Lily Tomlin, Charlie Lucas, Massimo Ghini, Paolo Seganti, Paul Checquer, Tessa Pritchard, Claudio Spadaro, Paula Jacobs, Michael Williams. Mino Bellei Running time: 120 minutes.
Tea With Mussolini is something of a romanticised memoir of director Franco Zeffirelli's early life growing up in Florence during the 1930's and the reign of Mussolini.
The scorpioni were a group of eccentric, expatriate English ladies living in Florence, largely oblivious to the gathering clouds of war. Lady Hester Random (Maggie Smith), the widow of a former ambassador, is the unofficial leader of this group, who keep alight the flame of empire and carry the torch of tradition. In 1935, Mary Wallace (Joan Plowright), the secretary to a local clothing merchant, introduces her employer's illegitimate son Luca into this circle.
Luca, fetchingly played by Charlie Lucas and Baird Wallace, is a thinly disguised, fictional version of the young Zeffirelli. These remarkable women take time out to educate the young Luca in fine arts, Shakespeare, and English, and help shape the boy into the man that he would eventually become. Caught between two cultures, Luca comes of age during the war when he helps the ladies, who were eventually interned in the nearby walled city of San Gimignano.
Tea With Mussolini is easily Zeffirelli's most personal movie to date. With plenty of humour and compassion, the film lovingly explores those early forces that shaped his love of arts and literature, which adds a remarkable personal resonance to the tale. The film spans some ten years, and the narrative occasionally seems to lack focus.
John Mortimer, creator of Rumpole, brings a touch of sardonic humour and quaint touches of English eccentricity to the script. The dialogue crackles with some witty repartee and wonderfully acerbic asides, which the superb cast deliver with relish.
Zeffirelli has assembled a superlative cast of fine English actresses and Oscar winners, and their classy performances enrich the film. Smith is superb as the imperious and haughty Lady Hester, while the always reliable Plowright brings compassion and understanding to her role. Judi Dench is fine as Arabella, the eccentric bohemian artist Arabella, while Cher delivers her best performance for some time as the flamboyant, vulgar but generous Elsa, an American entertainer who unexpectedly proves to be the saviour of the group. Newcomer Wallace, who apparently bears a striking similarity to the young Zeffirelli, is wonderfully appealing as the teenage Luca, even though his accent sometimes wavers.
This remarkable tale of courage is also something of a homage to the beauty and rich history of Florence itself. Oscar winning cinematographer David Watkin (Out Of Africa, etc) captures the beautiful Tuscan landscape, and he imbues the film with a gorgeous, glossy visual surface.

Crew Battle Rules
Player Conduct
All players must abide by these rules with no exception. Players will receive one and only one warning for any rule violation, if they are found in violation of the rules a second time, they will be disqualified from the crew battle.
- Respect the opposing team, players, and TOs. Any trash-talking, rude behavior, taunting, harassment or similar behavior is not allowed.
- “Dancing” under any circumstance is not allowed.
- Arguing with TOs after a decision will not be tolerated and may result in immediate disqualification.
- If a player intentionally disconnects, they will lose the round and it will be marked as a 2-0 or 3-0 loss. If a player intentionally disconnects a second time they will be disqualified.
- If a team has a player disqualified, they have 5 minutes to field a replacement before the disqualified player's remaining rounds are marked as either 2-0 or 3-0 losses.
- If a player is disqualified from 2 events, they will not be allowed to participate in future crew battles until they have shown real positive change over an extended period of time.
- Any player banned from either team’s home server is not allowed to participate in the crew battle.
Lag and connectivity Issues
Lag and occasional connection instability are an unavoidable part of online gaming.
If player disconnects unintentionally from a game, the game will be counted as a loss, unless the opposing player agree to an alternate outcome.
If there is pervasive and consistent lag players may choose to contact a TO for help in troubleshooting the issue. If the match containing a lag issue is being streamed another match may replace it to avoid interruption to the stream.
The protocol for troubleshooting lag during crew battles will be as follows:
- Players can try to switch who the lobby host is.
- Both players can restart their switches.
- Both players can reboot their modems, if able.
- If a player is using Wi-Fi and has a LAN adapter, they can try using the LAN adapter to see if it helps.
- If the lag cannot be remedied players can either resume the match or declare it either a 1-1 or 2-2 tie.
Battle Format
- A team round robin format will be used for the crew battle.
- All games will take place in Arena mode.
- Each team will field 3 to 5 players.
- Each round will consist of a best of 3 or best of 5 games as determined by the team captains before the start of the crew battle.
- One point will be awarded for each game won by a player in a given round.
- Stage selection for each game will be random stage from the predetermined crew battle stage list. The default stage randomized will be the one built into ARMS. However, if both players agree, an alternative stage randomizer may be used.
- No repeat clause A stage cannot be played twice in the same round. After a stage has been played in a given round between two players, it will be disabled until the end of that round.
- The team with the most points at the end of all rounds will be declared the winner.
- In the event of a tie after the completion of all rounds, teams have two options:
- The crew battle will end in a tie.
- A best of 3 game playoff will take place. Each team will select 3 players and an order of appearance for the players. Once both teams have decided their players and player order, they will notify the TOs and opposing team. The playoff will then proceed as follows: each player will face off against the corresponding opposing player in a single game. The first team to win two games in the playoff will be declared the winner of the crew battle.
Stage Lists
The Captains of each team will agree to used one of the stage lists below before the start of the Crew Battle.
Full stage list
Ranked stages
Backroom Starters
Backroom Starters + Counters
CotE Starters + Counters
Japanese stage list
Custom stage list
Starts with Full stage list. Both teams will then discuss the number of stage bans each team will have. Both teams will then discuss their bans amongst themselves and report their chosen bans to the TOs and opposing team. If both teams ban the same stage, they can agree to ban an additional stage (or stages if applicable). The stages used in the crew battle will consist of all remaining stages. The number of stages must be large enough to abide by the no repeat clause.
Have Fun!

Logan Paul to appeal KSI defeat in YouTube rematch after points deduction for illegal punch
The American disputes the ruling of referee Jack Reiss which decided the outcome of the fight
by Jack RathbornLogan Paul plans to appeal the decision in his loss to KSI in the money-spinning YouTube rematch.
The American was adjudged to have hit KSI behind the head by referee Jack Reiss after dropping the Brit in the fourth round.
The judgement led to a two-point deduction and an eventual split decision points defeat, with the judges returning one card 56-55 in Paul’s favour, but the other two judges (57-54, 56-55) proved decisive to hand KSI the win.
“We just don’t believe the outcome was right,” Logan Paul announced on his YouTube channel.
“By no means am I afraid of losing, but I truthfully 100 per cent believe I did not lose the fight.
“This is a plea to the California State Athletic Commission, and I hope they give this the weight it deserves because I fear that since we aren’t real professional fighters that this may be overlooked.”
Paul also claims he allowed his emotions to impact his performance.
“I let emotions get the best of me man,” said Paul, when watching the replay of his infringement. “But, I will say, no warning, and I got two points taken away from me, and that’s why I think I lost tonight.
“I think if you do the math, the two points that I had taken away from me was the reason I lost tonight.
“I would love to contest the commission, because I think I should have got a warning.”

would match anything.
Determines how close the match must be to the fuzzy location (specified by
location
). An exact letter match which is distance
characters away from the fuzzy location would score as a complete mismatch. A distance
of 0
requires the match be at the exact location

where

bl, k + 1
= bl, k + vk
In this case the update is then
By assuming that

Note that in this case we consider that the rotation signal R is noiseless.

randomproceduredeclaration − RWP*Load Simulator declare a random procedure
randomproceduredeclaration
::=
[ private ] random procedure array identifier
( randomprocedurespec { , randomprocedurespec }
)
randomprocedurespec
::=
identifier expression
One of the the purposes of the RWP*Load Simulator is to randomly execute one out of number of "business transaction" in order to simulate a load this is a mixture of these. To do that, you must declare a random procedure array. It contains a number of procedures that are given different weights, which are used to provide the probability of execution.
When a named random procedure is being executed, one of the procedures in the array will be executed with the given probability.
Although you don’t actually declare procedure arguments in a random procedure array declaration, they do take arguments just like a normal procedure, and all procedures used in its definition must take the same arguments; only argument names can be different.
Random procedures can be declared with the private keyword which means they will be local to the file where they are defined, and they cannot be declared locally.
The random procedure is given a name that must followed a parenthesized list of procedures with weights. Weights are double values, they cannot be negative and the sum of them must be positive. The weights will be scaled to probabilities in the range [0;1] and when you call the random procedure, one of the procedures will be called with that probability. A procedure with weight zero will never be called, and there must be at least one procedure in the list.
When you call the random procedure, you must provide the list of arguments just as if you called one of the procedures individually.
This example first declares four procedures and then a random procedure array:
procedure
one(integer x) ... end;
procedure two(integer y) ... end;
procedure three(integer z) ... end;
procedure four(integer x) ... end;
random procedure array doit ( one 10, two 25, three 5, four 60 );
As the sum of the four values is 100, the values are effectively percentages. The net result is that whenever your rwloadsim program executes "doit(value)", the actual execution will with the specified probability be one of those four.
