I bought an ethnic carpet in Uyuni, near the salt desert in Bolivia. This one reminds me of it.

A week before that, a group of travellers had a fatal
accident
at the same place.
I slapped our driver to wake him up.

London, one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world for a reason. A cultural and historical hub, London has an excellent public transportation system that allows visitors to see all the fantastic sights without spending a ton of money on a rental car. London contains four World Heritage Sites.
Paris, the city of lights and love - this short guide is full of ideas for how to make the most of the romanticism that oozes from every one of its beautiful corners.You couldn't possibly visit Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower. Even if you do not want to visit this world famous structure, you will see its top from all over Paris.
Rome, one of the world's most fascinating cities. The old adage that Rome was not built in a day - and that you won't see it in one or even in three - is true. For the intrepid traveler who can keep pace, here is a list of must-sees. But remember what the Romans say: Even a lifetime isn't enough to see Rome.


Maddie Ziegler Dishes On Her Role in 'West Side Story'
Maddie Ziegler just recently opened up about her new role in the remake of West Side Story.
The Steven Spielberg film stars Rachel Zegler and Ansel Elgort in the roles of Maria and Tony in the modern-day re-telling of Romeo & Juliet.
“I’m one of the Jet girls,” Maddie explained to Entertainment Tonight, adding that “it was honestly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. To work with Steven Spielberg was a pretty life-changing thing, so I’m really grateful for that.”
As for the movie itself, Maddie assures big fans of the film that nothing big has changed.
“We stayed really true to the value of the first movie . . . so the costumes, the hair, and the makeup [are] all very from that era, which is amazing. I think we just added more flair from this new cast,” she adds. “I learned so much from all the dancers and the actors. Everyone is brilliant.”
We can’t wait to see the movie! West Side Story is expected to premiere in December of 2020.

How do I look for the fact "the inclusion \N \r \R is a homomorphism of ordered rings"? In particular I am trying to kill the following tactic state
x : ℝ,
hx_w : ℤ,
hx_h : x = ↑hx_w ∧ x ^ 2 < 3
⊢ 3 > hx_w ^ 2
There's a tactic which does this I think
You could split hx_h into h1 and h2, and then do cases on h1 and then try norm_cast
These exercises really make one feel like one is learning math for the first time :)
import data.real.basic example (x : ℝ) (hx_w : ℤ) (hx_h : x = ↑hx_w ∧ x ^ 2 < 3) : 3 > hx_w ^ 2 := begin cases hx_h with h1 h2, rw h1 at h2, norm_cast at h2, assumption, end
yeah, this stuff really opened my eyes and I was the teacher at the time.
is assumption kind of like exact _?
edit: answer, yes, see https://leanprover.github.io/reference/tactics.html

How to manage agendas & meetings?¶
use hackpad for agenda, repo for minutes
Agenda hackpad: https://hackpad.com/conda-forge-meeting-notes-WZIa4PBQ6sz
Stats on conda-forge¶
google analytics says 500 unique visitors to conda-forge Packaging 300-ish feedstocks in conda-forge 600-ish packages at continuum
1126 packages on conda-recipes (918 non-r), though some are repeats (e.g. python2 vs python3)
import os
packages = [f1 for f1, f2, f3, in os.walk('conda-recipes') if 'meta.yaml' in f3]
print(len(packages))
$ find . -name "meta.yaml" | wc -l
1126
Next meeting¶
2016-04-29 14:00 UTC
External developers to github.com/continuum repos¶
In particular, the heroku build pack. https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge-webservices is using neither the Continuum one, nor the one written by the Heroku product owner.
No precedent for non Continuum contributors yet. We would love to have a canonical conda buildpack.
Centos5 vs Centos6¶
conda and conda-build are hopefully to be upgraded to understand the glibc version
conda will be upgraded to provide analytics to anaconda.org on the glibc version of the requestor to feed information about the systems people are installing onto
Suggested that one standardizes the syntax on the build commands, not the images that are used to build
Features and feedstocks¶
figuring out how you select a library that implements a common features set
single repo for numpy and use selectors/features/branches to control how things get built
mild-preference for single repo with selectors to toggle
NetCDF¶
Q: How should we manage multiple “features” within it (e.g. compiled with/without OpenDAP)
If possible, build as much as possible, but only provide the sensible run-time dependencies. Adding further dependencies would enable more functionality.
In practice, that is sometimes not possible (e.g. a required .so is missing), in which case, we will need to be able toggle different build “variants”. @msarahan suggested that the conda features concept may not be the best way of solving this.
Windows VC feature¶
There is no strong candidate for going forwards at this point. Suggestion is to investigate some more, and @msarahan, @jakirkham and @pelson to reconvene on 2016-04-22 at 14:00 UTC (though previously advertised for the 21st) to discuss specifically this issue.
Features are intended to standardize packages that need certain things across your installed packages
if you install a package that tracks the vc9 feature and one that tracks the vc10 feature and both get installed, conda will fall over and forget how to resolve dependencies and both will get installed?
vc## features should never be added as a runtime requirement?
Documentation¶
add a folder in the conda-forge.github.io git repo
A: John to add guidelines
Next planned meeting is 2016-04-29 at 14:00 UTC

Thousands of Disney+ Accounts Hacked and Being Sold Online
by Charlotte HenryStreaming glitches aren’t the only tech problems to have beset Disney+, it seems. ZDNet found that almost immediately thousands of users’ credentials were being sold online.
Two users who spoke with ZDNet on the condition we do not share their names admitted that they reused passwords. However, other users said online that they did not, and had used passwords unique for their Disney+ accounts. This suggests that in some cases hackers gained access to accounts by using email and password combos leaked at other sites, while in other cases the Disney+ credentials might have been obtained from users infected with keylogging or info-stealing malware. The speed at which hackers have mobilized to monetize Disney+ accounts is astounding. Accounts were put up for sale on hacking forums within hours after the service’s launch. As of this article’s writing, hacking forums have been flooded with Disney+ accounts, with ads offering access to thousands of account credentials.

SWANN A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1997 James Berardinelli
RATING (0 TO 10): 7.5 Alternative Scale: *** out of ****
United Kingdom/Canada, 1996 Running Length: 1:36 MPAA Classification: No MPAA Rating (Mature themes, profanity, violence, sex) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: 1.85:1 Shown at the Philadelphia Festival of World Cinema, 5/7/97 & 5/9/97
Cast: Miranda Richardson, Brenda Fricker, Michael Ontkean, John Neville, David Cubitt Director: Anna Benson Gyles Producers: Ann Scott, Christina Jennings Screenplay: David Young from the novel by Carol Shields Cinematography: Gerald Packer Music: Richard Rodney Bennett
Literature is a critical part of our culture. Few would argue with that statement, but, in a world of rapidly declining attention spans, one has the sense that any book not offering instant gratification will not attain proper recognition. SWANN, directed by first time feature film maker (but long time documentarian) Anna Benson Gyles from the novel by Carol Shields, is a cinematic celebration of books, poems, and other aspects of literature. It is about the need to protect and nurture great works of writing, especially when the author is no longer around.
Mary Swann was a little-known but much-beloved poet whose small volume of poetry has touched the lives of her faithful cadre of readers. Before Mary was brutally axed to death by her husband, she committed her entire collection of written work to a friend, Rose Hindmarch (Brenda Fricker). It was Rose who ensured that the poems received exposure beyond the rural Canadian town where Mary lived and died.
Now, best-selling author Sarah Maloney (played by the always- appealing Miranda Richardson), whose latest novel is a huge success, has decided to write a book about Mary. Her research takes her to Mary's town and she makes contact with Rose, who is operating a small museum dedicated to the dead poet. Soon, however, Sarah discovers that there is a secret about Mary that no one is willing (or able) to talk about. Her investigative instincts aroused, Sarah begins to dig, and her hunt unearths some surprising evidence.
Yes, there is a mystery in SWANN, but it's of secondary importance to the meticulously-developed characters and breathtaking cinematography. The film creates two unforgettable individuals. There's brave, reliable Rose, whose salt-of-the-earth qualities make her the kind of woman whom people don't think twice about imposing upon. As portrayed by Brenda Fricker (who won an Academy Award for MY LEFT FOOT), Rose is the most memorable thing in SWANN. Then there's Sarah, a woman who appears to have everything but is really lacking some of the most basic things in life: love and journalistic integrity. SWANN details her quest to find both.
The plot of SWANN moves slowly, occasionally grinding to a complete halt. But that's okay, because this movie is about taking one's time. Poetry is never meant to be hurried through, but to be savored and explored, lovingly and carefully. Aspects of this film are reminiscent of visual poetry -- simple shots of stunning beauty that prove you don't need mountain ranges or other spectacular vistas to capture the viewer's eye. Everyday images presented in a specific manner can be just as effective, such as a sugar cube absorbing coffee (borrowed from Kieslowski's BLUE, but no less impressive here).
SWANN is certainly not for everyone. Its slow pace may drive some to distraction, and its apparent lack of focus (the soluton to the "mystery" isn't surprising or shocking) will turn others off. But anyone who approaches this movie with the proper expectations will find himself or herself engaged. SWANN is a humble motion picture that, thanks in large part to Fricker and Richardson, is capable of reaching out to a part of us that few movies touch.

TITANIC (1997)
Written and Directed by James Cameron Music by James Horner Actors: Kate Winslet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Gloria Stuart, Billy Zane, Bill Paxton, and about a couple of thousands of extras and stunt people.
When the budget of this movie went seriously over the expected number, its creator Jim Cameron offered the studios (Paramount and Fox) to give up his 8 million dollar directing fee and only take the wage for the screenplay that he wrote, as he claimed, in six weeks. Well, in my opinion, he made the wrong offer. The studio should give him the directing fee, but take away his writing fee, and even maybe fine him a couple of thousand dollars for his script.
Meet Rose, 101 years old (played by Gloria Stuart), brought onto a Russian submarine by the treasure hunter played by a blond Bill Paxton, to discuss the whereabouts of a huge diamond neckless, said to be lost in the famous tragedy of the sinking of Titanic 84 years ago. Rose, then 17, went through physical and emotional heaven and hell, and lives to tell her story on that "unsinkable" ship which sank during its first voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. The story unfolds through old Rose's narration.
Meet the young Rose (played by Kate Winslet), unhappily engaged to Cal Hockley (Billy Zane), the heir of a billionare. The first sight of her tells the audience that she is a free soul underneath the restrictive dresses.   In her desperation, she tries to commit suicide by jumping off the ship, and, sure enough, is saved by a young man of her destiny.
Meet Jack, the young guy who saves Rose from suicide. He's free-spirited, fun, brave, open, nice, and in case you still don't think it's cliched enough, he's also a poor, undiscovered but talented artist. Is there any question that Rose will be swept off her feet by this adventurous young man of lower social class, who won the ticket on Titanic from a poker game? Is there any question that she will be charmed the daylight out of her by the fun-loving, care-free, romanticized poor people living underneath the first class passengers who party all night? Is there any question on who's going to be the villains but the evil rich people in her life, who are determined to keep the lovers apart?
Like another exceptionally long film, the last year's "Hamlet". Titanic is an extremely uneven film with some genuine brilliance and some unforgivable flaws. OK, maybe there is only one hole about Titanic, but it's big enough to sink the entire ship, no matter how big it is -- The screenplay.
I had doubts about this film long before I saw it. It is difficult (no kidding) to write a teenage, first-love kind of romance, the "boy meets girl" kind of romance (Cameron's own words) and make it work. But then it's doable, as Robert Louis Stevenson had written so neatly, or as Cameron himself has done so touchingly in his earlier "Terminator" (1984). So I had hopes that it might just work. Boy was I disappointed! For two days, since I saw this film, I have been thinking just what went wrong. Could it be the much too cliched plot, borrowed from much too old romances written by the idealistic rich people of the 19th century who romanticized the poor? Could it be the incredibly shallowness of the characters, who are given as much depth as a piece of typing paper? Could it be the laughable villains, who are so cartoonish that they are hardly evil? Above all, I think it's the dialogue throughout the film, that completely wipes out its chance to become a good movie. "To me, it was a slave ship, I was being dragged to America in chains." "I'm like a tumbleweed in the wind." "It's unfair to put this burden on MY shoulders." "Promise me, you'll never give up." (like "Promise me you'll come back for me." in the "English Patient.") The ghastly lines made me cringe every time the two leading characters open their mouth. When Rose says "I was screaming inside, and nobody cares." I was also screaming inside "STOP IT!!! STOP SPEAKING!!!"
The dialogues seem to be lifted directly from a paperback romance. But it seems to be the writer's intention to be so. He says, "Jack is a 90's guy." Yet, he misses the point that being contemporary is not the same as being bland and inappropriate. So many lines, so many jokes are completely out of place that they bring out embarrassment rather than laughter. Most of the romantic words coming out of DiCaprio's mouth to express his affection are contrived, unrealistic, and even laughable. Neither in the 90s, nor the teens, would anyone speak like that, except in Danielle Steel's books. There is so much cheese in it that I almost choked on it.
Cheesy as it is, there are plenty of wonderful moments throughout the film. Almost every silent moment ranges from likable to beautiful. There is chemistry between the two leads, even though not as strong as it ought to be. When the young lovers stare at each other as she standing in the descending lifeboat, when he draws a sketch of her in nude. Yet, whenever one opens his/her mouth, the moment is ruined instantly by the unbearable dialogues. Other characters' lines are no better, and none of the character is memorable; none has enough depth to stand on its own. Over and over again, I was let down by the simplistic portrayal of the villains. Rose's mother had only one chance to develop a tiny bit of complexity, in the mean time, Rose's agony and struggle could be much more profound, yet the chance is gossly missed. There is more that one time, that depth could be given to Cal, the fiance from hell, and the writer could have at least speculate just why he is so obsessed with his disobedient Rose. But they are also dismissed. I could almost visualize how the story and dialogues could be rewritten to be better. There is nothing more frustrating than a potentially good story being told incompetently.
On the other hand, the production design of this film is nothing short of incredible. There are plenty of filmmakers can turn piles of money into mediocre visual effects, but Cameron's films are always successful in make-believes. Everything is painstakingly done to perfection. The second half of the film is filled with extremely realistic visuals. Throughout the entire film, this huge creation, the ship, and its reckage, cannot be more convincing. It looks chillingly real. So is the scene in which 1500 frozen bodies floating on the silent black sea. It is one of those powerful moments that almost make your heart stop. There are plenty of interesting fragments that border on great images, and they all contain NO dialogue.
The sinking of Titanic on screen reminds me of "Braveheart". Both films are able to explain some very complex processes. It is to the director's credit that the audience are able to follow the steps of events that happened and know how and why. The usage of computer models helps to clarify the things happened after Titanic hit an iceberg. The audience feel as if they were looking at the real footage of Titanic sinking, and knowing clearly what is going on. It is ironic that the ship becomes more interesting than any of the humans on board.
The music is very beautiful and haunting. The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous and powerful, perhaps the year's best. Almost every scene in this 3-hour-plus long movie would be good, if only there was no words spoken. It is a paradox for me, always, about both Mr. Cameron and Hollywood today in general -- how can so much talent, so much money and so much blood, sweat and effort be spent into a project, without spending a tiny fraction of that into writing a script with complex characters, deep (not bloated) emotions, intelligent dialogues and realistic human situation? Is it that hard? Is a good script more expensive than $200 million? Is the map to the human heart more difficult to draw than a rebuilding of the biggest ship on earth? Is human minds so deep that even those who dive into the sea where Titanic sleeps, cannot reach? Is it impossible?
If it were a silent film, if there were no dialogue at all, "Titanic" would probably get an A- from me, but as it is, it's B- to C+. I simply cannot recommend it to those who do not read paperback romance novels.

Express Response Times Example
In this example we'll create a server which has an index page that prints out "hello world", and a page http://localhost:3000/times
which prints out the last ten response times that InfluxDB gave us.
You can see annotated the source code on Github here.
The end result should look something like this:
➜ ~ curl -s localhost:3000
Hello world!
➜ ~ curl -s localhost:3000/times | jq
[
{
"time": "2016-10-09T19:13:26.815Z",
"duration": 205,
"host": "ares.peet.io",
"path": "/"
}
]
Get started by installing and importing everything we need! This tutorial assumes you're running Node 6.
npm install influx express
Now create a new file app.js
and start writing:
const Influx = require('../../')
const express = require('express')
const http = require('http')
const os = require('os')
const app = express()
Create a new Influx client. We tell it to use the express_response_db
database by default, and give it some information about the schema we're writing. It can use this to be smarter about what data formats it writes and do some basic validation for us.
const influx = new Influx.InfluxDB({
host: 'localhost',
database: 'express_response_db',
schema: [
{
measurement: 'response_times',
fields: {
path: Influx.FieldType.STRING,
duration: Influx.FieldType.INTEGER
},
tags: [
'host'
]
}
]
})
Things we used:
Now, we have a working Influx client! We'll make sure the database exists and boot the app.
influx.getDatabaseNames()
.then(names => {
if (!names.includes('express_response_db')) {
return influx.createDatabase('express_response_db');
}
})
.then(() => {
http.createServer(app).listen(3000, function () {
console.log('Listening on port 3000')
})
})
.catch(err => {
console.error(`Error creating Influx database!`);
})
Things we used:
Finally, we'll define the middleware and routes we'll use. We have a generic middleware that records the time between when requests comes in, and the time we respond to them. We also have another route called /times
which prints out the last ten timings we recorded.
app.use((req, res, next) => {
const start = Date.now()
res.on('finish', () => {
const duration = Date.now() - start
console.log(`Request to ${req.path} took ${duration}ms`);
influx.writePoints([
{
measurement: 'response_times',
tags: { host: os.hostname() },
fields: { duration, path: req.path },
}
]).catch(err => {
console.error(`Error saving data to InfluxDB! ${err.stack}`)
})
})
return next()
})
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
setTimeout(() => res.end('Hello world!'), Math.random() * 500)
})
app.get('/times', function (req, res) {
influx.query(`
select * from response_times
where host = ${Influx.escape.stringLit(os.hostname())}
order by time desc
limit 10
`).then(result => {
res.json(result)
}).catch(err => {
res.status(500).send(err.stack)
})
})
Things we used:
That's it!  You can see the complete annotated the source code on Github here.

During the trouble-shooting of Jenkins, we often request that you obtain thread dumps of relevant Java VMs. Thread dumps concisely captures what every thread in a VM is doing at a given point in time, and therefore it is useful to diagnose hang problems, deadlocks, and performance issues. This page explains how you obtain it.
From Jenkins Web UI
This is the simplest way of obtaining thread dumps.
If Jenkins or its build agents are operating normally, you can obtain a thread dump remotely by going to http://your.jenkins.server/threadDump
. For an agent named 'xyz', go to http://your.jenkins.server/computer/xyz/systemInfo
. You need to have the administrator permission on the system.
By using jstack
If Jenkins is not responding to web UI, try jstack to obtain the thread dump. For one reason or another that none of us quite understand well, one might have to add -F to get the dump. If that was the case, please mention that in the report as well.
Make sure to run jstack as the same user that's running Jenkins itself instead of using the root user
jstack
isn't always reliable, and sometimes it fails to obtain thread dumps for no obvious reasons.
By sending signal
If the above two approaches do not work, you can still have the JVM print the thread dump to its stdout by sending it a signal.
If you have a terminal or command prompt that's running the JVM, you can hit Ctrl+
(Unix) or Ctrl+Break (Windows) to do this. If the JVM is running in background, you do this by kill -3 PID
(Unix) or use a tool like this to send a signal (Windows).
Obviously, you must be on the same machine as the Jenkins master when you run this command. In a situation like this, the standard output of JVM is normally redirected to a log file, so you need to hunt down where it is written to and pick up the dump from there. On Unix, you can look at /proc/PID/fd/1
to figure out which file the stdout is being written to. On Windows, if you have installed Jenkins as a Windows service, check that page for whereabouts of the log files.
This approach is platform specific, but it tends to be more reliable even when JVM is in a dire state.


Welcome to the exhibition of series of paintings by Claude Monet!
Oscar-Claude Monet (1840 – 1926) was a French painter, a founder of French Impressionist painting and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature, especially as applied to plein air landscape painting.

title: Back from Spain
date: 2006-11-20 16:22:46
---
I got back last night from Spain. I brought my family with
me to Tech-Ed Barcelona and we stayed an extra week for vacation.
A few notes from the trip, some of them business-related,
others from the family vacation:
- As a trade show, Tech-Ed was okay. I overheard some of
the other vendors describing it as a big waste of time. I won't say it
was a good show, but I don't think it was that bad. To be fair,
I'll admit that we intentionally kept our expectations low.
- This was our first trade show outside the US. The first thing we noticed is that the booths are weird. In every previous trade
show, the setup had been the same: We get a piece of floor space,
approximately 10 feet square, with a curtain hanging in the back and a
shorter curtain between us and our next door neighbors. At Tech-Ed
Europe, each booth is a box, bounded on two sides by a wall. The booths
are grouped four together in a square, so every space is a corner booth. I
got the impression that this is just the way shows in Europe are done.
- I chatted with Miguel de Icaza for a while, catching up a
bit. It sounds like it might be time for us to take another look at the
Mono Windows Forms stuff.
- Barcelona is an amazing city. I wish we had stayed there
longer, but I did get to see a few things:
- There's a cathedral that has been under construction for
200 years. They say it's almost done now. Another 20 years or so and it
will be ready for use. There are so many jokes to make about this that
I'm not even going to pick one.
- In the old part of town, we went into another cathedral.
Fantastic. Those European cathedrals are just amazing, and there's
nothing really like them here in the states.
- We toured the Picasso art museum. Did you know Picasso
did "normal" paintings for years before he started doing all that weirdo
stuff? I had no idea.
- I was quite surprised at the amount of Spanish in Barcelona. Basically, this city speaks Catalan, which is a funky mixture of Castilian Spanish
and French. I speak very rusty quasi-fluent Spanish which I learned 15
years ago when we lived in Spain. I expected to have problems in Barcelona, but I didn't. Everybody speaks Castilian Spanish. Also, it turns out that in
its written form, Catalan is closer to Spanish than I thought. To me,
Catalan looks like Spanish with everything spelled wrong.
- Before the kids came along, Lisa and I lived for a year or
so in Torrejón de Ardoz, a town just outside of Madrid. So after the
conference was done, we got on a train from Barcelona to Madrid and spent
the second week based in Torrejón.
- Torrejón has changed a lot in 15 years. Before leaving Barcelona, we took the kids to McDonalds and told them that it was their last American
food for a while, since Torrejón is a much smaller town and has no fast
food places. When we got to our hotel in Torrejón, there was a McDonalds
directly across the street.
- Torrejón has a town plaza. In the corner of that plaza is
a church. That church has a tower. On the roof of that tower is an
enormous bird nest, perhaps 4 or 5 feet in diameter. I'm no expert on
birds, but they look like storks. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that nest has
been there for at least 15 years. I remember seeing it before.
- I picked up some souvenirs on the trip. One of my
personal traditions is that I always carry a wallet which was purchased
during one of my foreign trips. My current billfold is wearing out, so I
picked up a new one. Spain is a pretty good place to buy leather stuff.
- My most notable souvenir is a Spanish guitar. Thursday
night I went to Madrid planning to buy a classical guitar at a big music
store near the Palacio Real. Instead, I ended up at a place called Conde Hermanos, one block
away. I ended up spending a lot more than I planned, but I sort of fell
in love with this quaint little luthier shop. They sell guitars that are
hand-made right there in the store. The wall is covered with photographs
of famous classical and Flamenco guitarists proudly holding their Conde
Hermanos guitar. So anyway, I bought a guitar, and I shook hands with the
guy who made it. The whole experience was thoroughly enjoyable.
- For you guitar freaks out there, my little collection of
acoustic guitars now includes:
- A Conde Hermanos Flamenco guitar. Cypress. Hand-made in
Madrid and purchased there.
- A Martin HD-28. Indian Rosewood. This guitar may be the
sweetest sounding of the bunch.
- A Larrivee Parlor Guitar. Mahogany. Nice for travel.
Sounds great for its size.
- A Taylor 614C. Maple. Very bright sound.
- A 1968 Martin D-35S. Brazilian Rosewood. This is my
"birth year" guitar. From the serial number, I estimate it was made just
a couple weeks before I was born.
- Madrid has grown a lot. I don't remember the subway
trains being so crowded before. Our friends there told us that around 2
million immigrants have moved into Spain over the last several years. For
a country with a population of around 40 million, that's a pretty
significant change.
- The best day trip from Madrid is El Escorial. The
monastery there is really amazing. The train ride is approximately an
hour. When you get off at the train station, there will be a bus to take
you up the hill to the monastery. Don't take the bus. Instead, walk up
the hill, through the park. It's a little more than a mile, and the grade
makes it kind of a workout, but it's an extremely pleasant walk.
- One of my favorite sights in Spain is the Roman aqueduct
in Segovia. It was built around the end of the first. I just find it
amazing that this enormous structure, built from granite blocks with no
mortar or concrete, has been standing there for almost 2,000 years.
- By the end of our second week, my Spanish was starting to
come back. I'm still very rusty, but I can carry on a conversation if the
other parties will be somewhat patient with me.
- I ran out of reading materials on the trip, so I bought a
Spanish translation of one of the Harry Potter books. It was rather slow
reading for me, but I got through it all. I found it terribly unfortunate
that the clever wording of "Diagon Alley" just doesn't work in Spanish.
Anyway, right now I'm glad that the westbound jet lag isn't
nearly as bad as the eastbound version of the disease. This is a short work
week because of the Thanksgiving holiday, and I'm still catching up from all
the email and other stuff that I missed.

FIREMAN PALM
Renfrewshire reveller rescued by firefighters after getting his hand stuck in pub radiator
by Rebecca GrayA REVELLER was rescued by firefighters after getting his hand stuck in a pub radiator.
The mortified drinker had to be freed with hydraulic cutting gear when his digits got lodged between the heater and the boozer’s wall.
Tickled onlookers took a series of snaps at the Boarding House in Howwood, Renfrewshire, before dialling 999 on Sunday.

"I’m not sure why his hand was down there — maybe he dropped something and was trying to retrieve it.
"But he soon regretted his decision.”
The unlucky punter was treated with oxygen therapy before being taken home.
A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service spokesman said: “We were alerted at 6.40pm on Sunday to reports of a person in need of assistance within a pub.
“Operations control mobilised one fire appliance to the town’s Main Street, where firefighters used small cutting gear to help a casualty whose hand had become trapped in a radiator.”
“Crews removed the casualty to safety and provided the individual with oxygen therapy before leaving the scene.”
We told how a pensioner was rescued by 12 firefighters after getting stuck up a tree in Insch, Aberdeenshire, in 2013.
The 70-year-old worker was stranded 20ft up when his ladder crashed to the ground.

Abstract
We begin with a brief background on
low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes -- a class of codes that can be
described on sparse graphs. At long block lengths, LDPC codes have been
designed to achieve near capacity performance via easy-to-implement, but
sub-optimal, graph-based message-passing decoders. However, the design of
short to moderate length LDPC codes that are well-suited for message-passing
decoding is still an open area of research. In recent years, there has been
some progress in explaining the behavior of message-passing decoders using
the terminology of graph covers and pseudocodewords. It has been further
shown that low-weight pseudocodewords dominate the performance of
message-passing decoders and therefore, the minimum pseudocodeword weight is
an important parameter for the design of LDPC codes. |


LAX and the Freedom to Travel
by BILL GIRDNERIn our nation, the freedom to travel was considered an inherent right dating back to the Articles of Confederation. But in the modern day that right is surely burdened in places like LA’s international airport.
To my astonishment, however, the burden recently lifted somewhat. A while back the airport was remodeled so it looked nice, with purple lights on columns and such, but nothing changed fundamentally in the conditions that made it one of the worst-rated airports in the nation.
However, between one trip to the airport about three weeks ago – same old thing – and a trip about a week ago, the place changed radically for the better.
On the giant horseshoe that runs inside the terminals, the lanes closest to the terminals are now reserved for public transportation, buses and shuttles mostly painted green and looking brand new.
In addition, a small army of employees with vests were seemingly everywhere, directing the river of people coming and going. And, to my utter amazement, traffic inside the great horseshoe flowed loosely, easily.
The core change is that taxis and ride-shares like Uber and Lyft are banned from the airport. The green public shuttles take travelers to lots outside the airport where the taxis and ride-shares can wait.
That change alone seems to have freed up traffic inside the airport horseshoe. Private cars and commercial shuttles, like hotel buses, still circulate but they are constrained to the lanes away from the terminals.
They now pick up passengers at islands between the near-in lanes reserved for public buses and the outer lanes used for general circulation.
One green bus says on the front panel that it takes you to the “metro” line, but alas – some changes are too huge to pull off so quickly – that line does not take you to downtown Los Angeles.
The transit authority, for example, provides online directions to the airport from Pasadena where Courthouse News is based. If you ask to go by rail, the same official website tells you “no itineraries.”
If you ask to go by bus on, say, a Saturday afternoon when this column is being written, the same official site estimates 197 minutes, more than three hours. If you then ask Google how long it takes to go by car, the estimate is 57 minutes, less than a third of the bus time.
So in practice the transportation system in Los Angeles still forces you to drive a car to the airport unless you want to sit on the bus for three hours.
The airport authority has a plan to change that, and it is now building a “people mover” that would in the next four years allow travelers to connect to a trolley line that would, after a couple connections, get you downtown. But it would be at street level and thus slow going.
The plan is ultimately shaped and limited by the vastness of Los Angeles, the enormous cost of building rail lines, and the various politicians on the county Board of Supervisors and the City Council who have their local priorities, and their votes, in the planning pot.
LAX itself remains a portrait of world humanity with faces of all hues and characteristics standing outside the terminal, freshly arrived from distant lands and now searching for a way out of the airport. They are often maneuvering huge suitcases stacked high on carts. Within the chaos, trains of airline attendants, perfectly coiffed, trim, in matching uniforms, smoothly, quickly weave their way.
The bigger idea embodied in those crowds, the wanting to see other territories on a globe where people, their customs and surroundings vary far beyond what the imagination can conjure – that is a common wish among all types of people. It is one of the weight-bearing columns that support the overarching notion of freedom.
So that part of it – the freedom to move around, travel across international boundaries, visit and see and communicate somehow with other people a long way away – is much more likely to be fulfilled when travel is made easy. Traveling with my nephews almost a decade ago, I was close to flabbergasted at how fast and easy it was to buy a ticket and get on a budget plane in Cologne bound for Istanbul.
The airport in Los Angeles has long been an expected opposite experience, with the lines and pressure and hassle inside the airport preceded by the back-of-the-mind sense of determination and dread that is required just to get to the airport.
But to my wonderment the local bureaucrats and politicians have managed to reduce the bane of Los Angeles – the traffic jam – within the airport roundabout and on the approach.
That’s a good thing. That’s progress.

Arlington Road * * * 1/2 (out of * * * * )
Directed by Mark Pellington. Cast: Jeff Bridges, Tim Robbins, Hope Davis, Joan Cusack, Robert Gossett, Spencer Treat Clark, Mason Gamble. 1999 - 117 minutes Rated R (for violence and profanity). Reviewed July 10, 1999.
"Arlington Road," directed by Mark Pellington, is one of the most pulse-pounding paranoia thrillers I have seen, a horrifying, tautly-paced film dealing with a person who begins to suspect menacingly dark undertones in a seemingly joyous place. Although the theatrical trailer for the film unfairly gives away many of its secrets (shame on the studio, Screen Gems!), you might just be surprised about how unpredictable much of it remains, right up until merely moments before the developments occur.
Michael Faraday (Jeff Bridges) is a grieving father of a 9-year-old son, Grant (Spencer Treat Clark), whose beloved wife, part of the feds, was killed in a case gone awry a year or two before. A professor for global terrorism, a subject he is truly and passionately intrigued and outraged by, at George Washington University, Michael has begun the process of repairing his broken-up life, and has gotten a nice girlfriend, Brooke (Hope Davis), who cares for him but realizes she will never be able to measure up to his late wife. One day while driving home in his suburban neighborhood, Michael comes across a young boy (Mason Gamble) staggering along in the middle of the road, one of his arms severely charred up from a freak firecracker accident. Rushing him to the hospital, Michael is met with much gratitude from the boy's parents, Oliver (Tim Robbins) and Cheryl Lang (Joan Cusack), whom Michael learns live right across the street from him. As Grant begins to come out of his shell when he becomes best friends with the Lang's son, Michael grows increasingly jealous and begins to suspect something fishy is going on when he finds Oliver's blueprints of an office building, when he says it is for a mall he is currently constructing. Due to the misfortune of his own wife, Michael isn't taking any chances, and soon has learned that Oliver Lang, which he changed his name to over fifteen years ago, was arrested for planting a bomb in a building when he was a teenager. To give away anymore would not be right, for there are many unexpected occurrences within the film's 117-minute running time that left me chilled right to the bone.
In its story arc, "Arlington Road" ultimately follows the tried-and-true, familiar pattern of many a thrillers. You know that the people around Michael will, at first, not buy into his serious suspicions, and that he will research the Lang's and discover more shocking secrets about them, and that there will be some sort of confrontation in the latter half. What you don't usually find in this type of thriller, however, is such a sympathetically written protagonist, and such a refreshingly high amount of energy that rarely ever lets up, as it leads you right to its devastating conclusion, which is such a decidedly downbeat but incalculable change of pace from the usual humdrum summer movies.
Thanks to the directing precision of Pellington (who fares much better here than in his previous film, 1997's "Going All the Way"); the tense, unequivocal screenplay by Ehren Krueger; the brooding cinematography by Bobby Bukowski, who really succeeds in portraying a supposedly peaceful suburban neighborhood in an obscure, threatening light; and the memorable, offbeat music score by David Lynch-regular Angelo Badalamenti, "Arlington Road" is an especially effective film that also turns out to be rather thought-provoking. In one of Faraday's college classes, he mentions that "people always want to blame one certain person just so that they can feel better," and this truthful statement looms eerily over the denouement. The characters of Michael and Brooke are also written intelligently enough so that when we realize that they are potentially being put into danger, their fates meant much more to me than the usual "thriller."
Jeff Bridges, a highly underrated actor who doesn't get as much notice as he should, probably because of some of his questionable film choices, is magnificent here, adding an appropriate mixture to his personality of love (for his son), depression (the death of his wife), and paranoia (of Oliver Lang). Bridges is asked to really push himself over the deep end in several scenes in his frustration to get others to realize what he firmly knows about the Lang's, and he is up to every challenge that comes his way.
Hope Davis, a remarkable, relatively new actress who has wowed me with the likes of the indie films, 1997's "The Daytippers" and "The Myth of Fingerprints," and 1998's "Next Stop Wonderland," is the film's performance standout. Her character of Brooke, who met Michael as a grad student at the university, is a realistic, three-dimensional creation because she loves Michael, but doesn't feel that she is being returned that emotion, and, in the beginning, can't understand why Michael is going to such great lengths to uncover criminals who very likely are innocent people. A startling twist occurs with her character midway through, which I would rather walk on sharp pins than give away, but it must be said that I was more filled with conflicting emotions of shock and disappointment than I have been in a very long time at the movies.
As the Lang's, Tim Robbins and Joan Cusack are perfectly cast.  After seeing Cusack in this role, which is so convincingly portrayed, I fear I might have a little difficulty in the future deciphering Joan from Cheryl. Together, Oliver and Cheryl's relationship reminded me a great deal of the off-kilter 1989 horror satire, "Parents," in which a young boy suspects his buoyant parents are actually cannibals who murder people and perform sadistic rituals late at night while he's sleeping.
It's rare in today's times to find a motion picture that still can alternately surprise you, get you deeply involved in the characters, and put you right on the edge of you seat, but that is exactly what "Arlington Road" has done. It should be noted that this film has been delayed for several months, first to acquire a stronger release date, then to avoid any controversy due to the Columbine school shooting, but it was definately worth the wait. Aside from a few minor, questionable plot gaps, "Arlington Road" is a superb film dealing with paranoia that is not easily forgotten, and may even force you to question the characters of the people in your own life. Who knows what lurks right below the surface?

The Latest: US may take federal execution case to high court
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Latest on federal executions (all times local):
6 p.m.
Attorney General William Barr tells The Associated Press he will take the Trump administration's bid to restart federal executions after a 16-year hiatus to the Supreme Court if necessary.
Barr's comments came hours after a district court judge temporarily blocked the administration's plans to start executions next month. The administration is appealing the decision, and Barr says he will take the case to the high court if Thursday's ruling stands.
He says the five inmates set to be executed are a small number of the 62 death row inmates.
The first federal execution was set for Dec. 9, with four others to quickly follow.
The inmates argue that the government is circumventing proper methods in order to wrongly execute inmates quickly.
__
8:30 a.m.
A judge has temporarily halted the first federal executions in 16 years, saying death row inmates scheduled to be executed are likely to win their legal challenge.
U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan said in a Wednesday evening ruling that the public is not served by "short-circuiting" legitimate judicial process.
"It is greatly served by attempting to ensure that the most serious punishment is imposed lawfully," she wrote.
The Justice Department said it will appeal Chutkan's decision.
