Germany Forces Apple to Open NFC to Third-Party Payment Apps
by Andrew OrrGermany has forced Apple to open its NFC capabilities on iPhones so that third-party payment apps can compete better with Apple Pay (via Reuters).
German Payment Apps
In a late night parliamentary session on Wednesday the country forced Apple to open up NFC to third-party payment apps. This was an amendment to an anti-money laundering law passed on Thursday. It will come into effect early next year.
The law didn’t specifically mention Apple, only “operators of electronic money infrastructure.” Apple Pay is a growing business for the company, recently beating Starbucks to become the most popular mobile payment solution. Today Apple said in a statement:
We are surprised at how suddenly this legislation was introduced. We fear that the draft law could be harmful to user friendliness, data protection and the security of financial information.

Nyellion linge lamya, palan or palar yána,

Silme yo laure, airea yo ainima -

Beautiful is Valimar
The musical sound of bells sounds, far over the wide plain,
Away from golden roofs, the blessed city of the Valar.
On silver floors, a singing host dances,
Adorned with many flowers, between splendid lofty halls.
Before gates of brass, the Two Trees grow on a hill,
Give perfect goodness, send forth (two) long-lasting lights.
Silver and gold, holy and blessed -
Oh! beautiful is Valimar!
Waves surge continually, onto the gleaming beach,
A mound stands in a cleft, looking towards the sea.
One half faces starlight, the other glorious light-substances,
Clad in a green robe, crowned with white walls.
Jewelled streets there bend, upwards to a slender tower,
A snow white tree alone blooms in a courtyard of marble.
Town upon Túna, Tirion the beautiful -
Wonderful is Eldamar!
Light is whitening to silver, twilight on the pools,
Leaves are whispering in the sound of wind, flying in the wind in the treetops.
In a drowsy twilight is spinning the circle of a swarm of insects.
Our ears still reaches a quiet tune of harps.
In this garden the two of us are at peace, amidst the fragrant flowers,
Both our minds enchanted, in our small realm.
Your hand in mine, meeting in this place -
Lo! loveable is home!

Car collides with traffic light in Bilston
Part of Oxford Street was blocked following the smash on Friday afternoon
by Jordan Coussins, Charlotte Regen, https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/authors/jordan-coussins/, https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/authors/charlotte-regen/Commuters were faced with travel chaos after a dramatic smash blocked off a busy Black Country junction.
Dramatic pictures from the scene, which were taken by Black Country Live and nearby motorists, showed the damaged car at the side of the Oxford Street, Bilston.
A traffic light was also been knocked onto its side following the smash at around 4pm on Friday, November 22.
It is not known if anyone was injured but motorists spoke of travel misery – as part of the major junction was closed off.
An eyewitness, who did not want to be named, said the junction is notorious for crashes and urged people to slow down as the bad weather continues.
“The junction has been awful lately,” one said. “There are always bumps and shunts – it’s only a matter of time before something worse happens.
“I hope everyone is ok. The cars looked a bit of a mess.”

| DOSE: |
1 tablet |
oral |
MDA |
(pill / tablet) |
Alright, in the last 2 years I have taken MDMA 7 times, once every 3-4 months. I have no MD tolerance. Interestingly enough I have never had pills that didnít require two for full effects.
So about 4 months ago I call a friend, we'll call him Rico Suave, looking for some tabs. I had some MDMA in my possesion, but was planning on dropping soon and I never like to be dry, so I needed back up. So I give Rico a call and he says he'll have to look around. He calls back and says he can get some, but theyíre gonna be $35! So I ask what type they are and Rico casually says omegas. 'Orange?'. 'Yeah' I almost came right there. I knew the reputation of these pills!
So I get it all planned out, and invite my friend, we'll call him John, to take one with me at upcoming 'Buzzfest'. He is a virgin to almost all substances, but very interested in experimentation. I introduced him to shrooms. This kid just got around to trying weed this month. But he is a very emotional person and I had been wanting to introduce him to X as I feel he is THE friend who would appreciate it the most.
So the day of the event comes, an all day concert, happily my marquis turned black, I had no doubts! We waste the day sitting in anticipation, till the sunsets at around 7:15. I let John drop his Orange Omega about 15 minutes before I do mine, cuz when we did shrooms his came in later and peaked harder. It begins:
~*MDA*~
125-150mg
(T+ 0:00-:30) Upon taking any drug I notice an immediate shift in consciousness, this was no different. The minute I felt the pill slide down my throat I felt different. We sat around with nervous anxiety waiting for something to happen. Nothing much would happen here. John makes fun of some fat people which would later come back to haunt him.
(T+ 0:30-:45) Strange caffeine energy keeps springing up in us and the leaving. To pass time we walk laps around the venue to pass time, then sit down, then 5 min. later feel the need to do it again. Sometime around +:40 John talked to a girl he knew. I found I had a hard time following the simple conversation and that her shirt was VERY pink. At this point there was a minor disassociation present, like when I am sketched from the comedown of too much amphetamine, and a slight tingling in my head and body. John and I sit down again.
(T+ 00:45-1:00) Alteration definitely happening now. Butterflies in the stomach and Iím wondering if its really gonna kick in, just like I always do. John and I are acting strange, yawning, stretching, rambling nonsense. 5 min later, 'Oh my God' 'I wish I hadnít done this' says John. This actually made me happy, as I knew they were kicking in. I reminded him that I has told him at least 3 times that day that when it came on, he would get some anxiety, and that this was normal.  'Oh my God, this is amazing' 'I've never felt this good' typical stuff.
His coming up pretty much got me going. Within minutes I felt the 'window open'. In an instant I felt the confusion and disassociation disappear, and the butterflies of anxiety turn to butterflies of excitement. A grin spread from ear to ear and warmth spread thru me. I busted out the glowsticks and was amazed once again. They seems to have thicker tracers than normal, but still barely noticablely different from MDMA. I was back home.
(T +1:00-1:30) Well now we were both feeling it good. I tell John the best part of X is meeting new people, and we're off. The body high is noticably different. Not nearly as 'floaty' and there is significant muscle tension, shoulder especially. People say MDA is more speedy, but I felt more weighed down.
We run from place to place, talking to anyone and everyone who will listen. E makes you wanna talk about E and the first thing I usually asked people was if they were rolling. A couple said yes. I mentioned that we were on Omegas and one guy gives me that 'You don't know what you in for.' I didn't. John and I go buy water. It is the best tasting water ever. Drinking it sent images of crystals, lush waterfalls, and purity thru my mind. Very imaginative! All this drinking though suddenly put my stomach in a bad mood, so we went to sit down, where I'd be spending most the night.
(T +1:30-3:00) I shot up very quickly, too quickly. These two hours were a blur. John became very talkative, saying things like 'I love you man' in the beer commercial style and lamenting his making fun of fat people. In his world everything was perfect. He was having the E high that made me fall in love with the chemical. Strange, it was his first time, 2nd time doing anything mind altering. and I was the one finding it too intense.
On to my world: Life had become a blizzard of sensory and emotional input. There was loud rock music playing in my face, John pouring out his life story to me, and a variety of people, lasers, and glowsticks all around me. I showed John earlier how my eyes wiggle on X (his didnít).  I wouldnít notice it until John said 'Your scaring me'. He said it everytime time it happened, and when it stopped, he'd go back onto to his ecstatic ranting. In fact sensory input is what made the high so intense. When the bands were playing it was too much, but during intermissions I became talkative and loved up.
I spent most of these 2-3 hours sitting in the grass changing postions from indian style to leaning back. There was so much stimulus that I just ended up going numb to it and agreeing with everything John said. If I stared at the grass it would suddenly shift a foot to the right. My skin literally felt like really soft leather. Sometime during this John left to talk to other people, but came back 'cuz it just doesnít feel right without you, man'. Also I repeatedly tell John Iím fine and having fun, so I wouldnít cause him to panic.
(T +3:00-5:00) Finally the peak wears off and the high moves down to my normal level with MDMA. I immediately open back up and tell him that the last 2 hours were hell, but Iím fine now. He appears hurt that I lied, but I told him it was so I would ruin his first time. He thanked me.
We get up and walk and I am presented with a feeling of total peace with myself. I feel truely enlightened. Instead of running my mouth like on MDMA, this MDA just made me want to relax and soak in the universe. And listen. We talk and play with glowstick. The tracers bring to mind the music video for Dave Matthew's crash. totally awe inspiring. I meet up with a guy whoís rolling on 'green smileys'. This is a guy Iíd normally hate. Ghetto white dude with a platinum grill. Yet our use of E seemed to unify me with him and accept him for a person. We chilled for a few and went on our way.
Later I got the privalege of laying down and looking at the stars. Totally awe inspiring. Such a sense of beauty and power. The night clouds seemed to speed by at an unnaturally high pace. The ones in my periphial skated across he sky in seconds. When I looked at the moon, John and I both say three. The normal white one with a yellow, and blue one haloing it. Also it looked as if the moon was shooting towards the Earth. It made John nervous. We walked and talked for a while.
(T +6:00-9:00) Pretty much came down all the way at this point. John and I popped some prozac, vitamins, and 100mg 5-htp. Actually it was timed perfect and I left the concert able to drive. There were still lingering feelings of peace and visual static here and there. Still had yet more meaningful conversations, that werenít as sappy and more truthful. Went home and watched cartoon network that seemed more realistic than normal. There was a fly in that room or so we thought. We still donít know if it was real to this day. Sometime around 3:00am I went to bad and fell instantly asleep. John however didnít sleep the whole night.
Overall MDA and MDMA are very similar, and if it wasnít for the large dose I wouldnít have been able to tell. I'd say the best comparison for MDA:MDMA is GBL:GHB. MDA seemed rougher, more pushy, and stronger. It had less social qualities and more introspective, but I feel it was almost every bit as empathetic. Maybe a little less euphoria. Definitly more visual, yet they donít even touch what shrooms can do. Also MDMA seems to lower my inhibitions just a tad more than MDA, so its better for parties and such. Still MDA was a beautiful drug and would love to reexperience it at perhaps 2/3 the dose.

FOR THE LOVE OF HUMANITY Dear Friend, Reply<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Your first reaction to this mail will be total rejection, scare and may be disbelief, owning largely to the atrocities people commit these days. But this mail comes from a devastated, sorrowful and emotional laden soul that needs compassion from a kind and good spirited person to wipe away my tears and appropriate my dream and humanitarian gesture. As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I believe everyone dies someday.My name is Naybet Trabelsi a merchant in Dubai,in the U.A.E.I worked with Zambian Ministry of Mining and Resources for eight years as a contractor, I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer . It has defiled all forms of medical treatment,I am very worried as the doctors have informed me that its terminal. I don't know how much time I have left on earth, hence this mail to you. I have not particularly lived my life well, as I never really cared for anyone but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have or make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends.  So far, I have distributed money to some charity organizations in the U.A.E,Algeria and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this myself anymore. I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan, they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them anymore, as they seem not to be content with what I have left for them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of $18,000,000,00 that I have with a finance/Security Company abroad. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatch it to charity organizations. I have set aside 20% for you and for your time. God be with you.

Let me quote from Modeling with Gecode:
Never ask for solutions to homework. The only more
offensive thing you could do is to provide a solution on the
mailing list if someone has violated the no homework policy!
Apart from that, your question is not specific to Gecode.

Create SMTP and LMTP server instances on the fly. This is not a full-blown server application like Haraka but an easy way to add custom SMTP listeners to your app. This module is the successor for the server part of the (now deprecated) SMTP module simplesmtp. For matching SMTP client see smtp-connection.
npm install smtp-server --save
const SMTPServer = require("smtp-server").SMTPServer;
const server = new SMTPServer(options);
Where
Additionally you can use the options from net.createServer and tls.createServer (applies if secure is set to true)
The server object returned from new SMTPServer has the following methods:
If you use secure:true option or you do not disable STARTTLS command then you SHOULD also define the key, cert and possibly ca properties to use a proper certificate. If you do no specify your own certificate then a pregenerated self-signed certificate for ‘localhost’ is used. Any respectful client refuses to accept such certificate.
Example
// This example starts a SMTP server using TLS with your own certificate and key
const server = new SMTPServer({
secure: true,
key: fs.readFileSync("private.key"),
cert: fs.readFileSync("server.crt"),
});
server.listen(465);
server.listen(port[,host][,callback]);
Where
Errors can be handled by setting an ‘error’ event listener to the server instance
server.on("error", (err) => {
console.log("Error %s", err.message);
});
Authentication calls can be handled with onAuth handler
const server = new SMTPServer({
onAuth(auth, session, callback) {},
});
Where
This module supports CRAM-MD5 but the use of it is discouraged as it requires access to unencrypted user passwords during the authentication process. You shouldn’t store passwords unencrypted.
const server = new SMTPServer({
onAuth(auth, session, callback) {
if (auth.username !== "abc" || auth.password !== "def") {
return callback(new Error("Invalid username or password"));
}
callback(null, { user: 123 }); // where 123 is the user id or similar property
},
});
XOAUTH2 support needs to enabled with the authMethods array option as it is disabled by default. If you support multiple authentication mechanisms, then you can check the used mechanism from the method property.
const server = new SMTPServer({
authMethods: ["XOAUTH2"], // XOAUTH2 is not enabled by default
onAuth(auth, session, callback) {
if (auth.method !== "XOAUTH2") {
// should never occur in this case as only XOAUTH2 is allowed
return callback(new Error("Expecting XOAUTH2"));
}
if (auth.username !== "abc" || auth.accessToken !== "def") {
return callback(null, {
data: {
status: "401",
schemes: "bearer mac",
scope: "my_smtp_access_scope_name",
},
});
}
callback(null, { user: 123 }); // where 123 is the user id or similar property
},
});
CRAM-MD5 support needs to enabled with the authMethods array option as it is disabled by default. If you support multiple authentication mechanisms, then you can check the used mechanism from the method property.
This authentication method does not return a password with the username but a response to a challenge. To validate the returned challenge response, the authentication object includes a method validatePassword that takes the actual plaintext password as an argument and returns either true if the password matches with the challenge response or false if it does not.
const server = new SMTPServer({
authMethods: ["CRAM-MD5"], // CRAM-MD5 is not enabled by default
onAuth(auth, session, callback) {
if (auth.method !== "CRAM-MD5") {
// should never occur in this case as only CRAM-MD5 is allowed
return callback(new Error("Expecting CRAM-MD5"));
}
// CRAM-MD5 does not provide a password but a challenge response
// that can be validated against the actual password of the user
if (auth.username !== "abc" || !auth.validatePassword("def")) {
return callback(new Error("Invalid username or password"));
}
callback(null, { user: 123 }); // where 123 is the user id or similar property
},
});
By default any client connection is allowed. If you want to check the remoteAddress or clientHostname before any other command, you can set a handler for it with onConnect
const server = new SMTPServer({
onConnect(session, callback) {},
});
Where
const server = new SMTPServer({
onConnect(session, callback) {
if (session.remoteAddress === "<IP_ADDRESS>") {
return callback(new Error("No connections from localhost allowed"));
}
return callback(); // Accept the connection
},
});
If you also need to detect when a connection is closed use onClose. This method does not expect you to run a callback function as it is purely informational.
const server = new SMTPServer({
onClose(session) {},
});
onSecure allows to validate TLS information for TLS and STARTTLS connections.
const server = new SMTPServer({
onSecure(socket, session, callback) {},
});
Where
const server = new SMTPServer({
onSecure(socket, session, callback) {
if (session.servername !== "sni.example.com") {
return callback(new Error("Only connections for sni.example.com are allowed"));
}
return callback(); // Accept the connection
},
});
By default all sender addresses (as long as these are in valid email format) are allowed. If you want to check the address before it is accepted you can set a handler for it with onMailFrom
const server = new SMTPServer({
onMailFrom(address, session, callback) {},
});
Where
const server = new SMTPServer({
onMailFrom(address, session, callback) {
if (address.address !==<EMAIL_ADDRESS>{
return callback(new Error("Only<EMAIL_ADDRESS>is allowed to send mail"));
}
return callback(); // Accept the address
},
});
By default all recipient addresses (as long as these are in valid email format) are allowed. If you want to check the address before it is accepted you can set a handler for it with onRcptTo
const server = new SMTPServer({
onRcptTo(address, session, callback) {},
});
Where
const server = new SMTPServer({
onRcptTo(address, session, callback) {
if (address.address !==<EMAIL_ADDRESS>{
return callback(new Error("Only<EMAIL_ADDRESS>is allowed to receive mail"));
}
return callback(); // Accept the address
},
});
You can get the stream for the incoming message with onData handler
const server = new SMTPServer({
onData(stream, session, callback) {},
});
Where
const server = new SMTPServer({
onData(stream, session, callback) {
stream.pipe(process.stdout); // print message to console
stream.on("end", callback);
},
});
This module does not prepend Received or any other header field to the streamed message. The entire message is streamed as-is with no modifications whatsoever. For compliancy you should add the Received data to the message yourself, see rfc5321 4.4. Trace Information for details.
When creating the server you can define maximum allowed message size with the size option, see RFC1870 for details. This is not a strict limitation, the client is informed about the size limit but the client can still send a larger message than allowed, it is up to your application to reject or accept the oversized message. To check if the message was oversized, see stream.sizeExceeded property.
const server = new SMTPServer({
size: 1024, // allow messages up to 1 kb
onRcptTo(address, session, callback) {
// do not accept messages larger than 100 bytes to specific recipients
let expectedSize = Number(session.envelope.mailFrom.args.SIZE) || 0;
if (address.address ===<EMAIL_ADDRESS>&& expectedSize > 100) {
err = new Error("Insufficient channel storage: " + address.address);
err.responseCode = 452;
return callback(err);
}
callback();
},
onData(stream, session, callback) {
stream.pipe(process.stdout); // print message to console
stream.on("end", () => {
let err;
if (stream.sizeExceeded) {
err = new Error("Message exceeds fixed maximum message size");
err.responseCode = 552;
return callback(err);
}
callback(null, "Message queued as abcdef");
});
},
});
If lmtp option is set to true when starting the server, then LMTP protocol is used instead of SMTP. The main difference between these two is how multiple recipients are handled. In case of SMTP the message either fails or succeeds but in LMTP the message might fail and succeed individually for every recipient.
If your LMTP server application does not distinguish between different recipients then you do not need to care about it. On the other hand if you want to report results separately for every recipient you can do this by providing an array of responses instead of a single error or success message. The array must contain responses in the same order as in the envelope rcptTo array.
const server = new SMTPServer({
lmtp: true,
onData(stream, session, callback) {
stream.pipe(process.stdout); // print message to console
stream.on("end", () => {
// reject every other recipient
let response = session.envelope.rcptTo.map((rcpt, i) => {
if (i % 2) {
return new Error("<" + rcpt.address + "> Not accepted");
} else {
return "<" + rcpt.address + "> Accepted";
}
});
callback(null, response);
});
},
});
If you provide a single error by invoking callback(err) or single success message callback(null, ‘OK’) like when dealing with SMTP then every recipient gets the same response.
Session object that is passed to the handler functions includes the following properties
Address object in the mailFrom and rcptTo values include the following properties
For example if the client runs the following commands:
C: MAIL<EMAIL_ADDRESS>SIZE=12345 RET=HDRS
C: RCPT<EMAIL_ADDRESS>NOTIFY=NEVER
then the envelope object is going go look like this:
{
"mailFrom": {
"address"<EMAIL_ADDRESS>"args": {
"SIZE": "12345",
"RET": "HDRS"
}
},
"rcptTo": [
{
"address"<EMAIL_ADDRESS>"args": {
"NOTIFY": "NEVER"
}
}
]
}
Most notably, the ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES extension is not supported, all response codes use the standard three digit format and nothing else. I might change this in the future if I have time to revisit all responses and find the appropriate response codes.
CHUNKING is also missing. I might add support for it in the future but not at this moment since DATA already accepts a stream and CHUNKING is not supported everywhere.

A right triangle is a triangle in which one angle is a right angle (that is, a 90-degree angle). The relation between the sides and angles of a right triangle is the basis for trigonometry.
Like any polygon, the perimeter is the total distance around the outside, which can be found by adding together the length of each side. Or as a formula:
Perimeter = a + b + c where: a,b and c are the lengths of each side of the triangle

We decided to have a backup, that is use another sensor in order to check heart rate and decided that LG W150 smartwatch was a good fit
We tried experimenting with the LG W150 smart watch, but it was facing some software issues
Some of the applications were constantly crashing and that's why we need to get our Smartwatch replaced
We recieved a new smart watch and started trying to measure heart rate in the smart watch
We met Dr. Bass and Mr. Jong also joined in via Skype
He answered some of our questions and also agreed to send us a more documented code to help us understand things further
He agreed to help us in completing our task
While working with the Bio-stamp sensor, we ran into a small issue
While testing the device, one of the electrical wires snapped and the sensor isn't working anymore
We have reached out to Ha-uk, who has agreed to meet us and fix the sensor on Monday
In the mean time we are working on smartwatch and trying to log the heart rate values on to the backend server

Golden Ratio
Concepts
Golden Ratio For Calculating Sizes of Website Regions
What is Golden Ratio?
The golden ratio is the ratio of 1 to 1.6180334. This ratio appears very often in nature and is seen to be beautiful and pleasing to the human eye.
Calculation
The Golden Ratio is known for the proportion 1:1.618.The scientific condition at work isn't as simple as just getting the ratio, but this is the base for the creation and calculation used to get the Golden Ratio on a Webpage.
Square Root for Margins / Padding
How Do You Use Square Root Method in CSS?
Start off with taking the width of the screen in pixels. Square root it and then continue to double what you got from the square root. Subtract your answer from the width and that will be your Golden Ratio. Use that mathematical answer in your CSS values and properties.
How to make an F Layout in Code
What is an F Layout?
The F-Layout in a website was created in the midst of eyetracking studies done to see where people looked the most. These scientific studies show that people who use websites read the screen in an "F" pattern
How do you create an F Layout?
When it comes to creating an F layout in code, there are three elements that make the layout successful
1. A page that includes text that has little or no formatting for the web. For example, it has a “wall of text” but no bolding, bullets, or subheadings.
2. Who ever is reading it wants to be efficient on the page.
3. The reader isn't interested in reading every word, so have pictures.
In your Code, there should be a few key things
1. They will likely be attracted to the page headline first, since the font is bigger and a portion of it is bold.
2. Next, they will move along the first stem to the image on the right which will make the first stem of the F
3. Scanning down the vertical stem, viewers will read a subheadline.
4. Continuing down, A picture will most likely attract them
5. After the picture, footers, or additional tags will be viewable
How to make Z Layout in Code
How Do You make a Z layout in Code?
Similarly to the F layout, in eyetracking tests, it is also seen that they eye naturally follows a Z shape when looking at a webpage
To make a Z layout in Code You'll Need...
1. the headline and subheadline in the top left will grade a viewrs attention first.
2. Viewers will then scan over to the right to a video or a picture
3. Creating the first diagonal in the Z-Shape, visitors are likely to scan down to the left
4. Next, the user’s eye gaze will pass through a list of something, they will switch back and forth through the lists
5. Finally, the Z-Layout continues back to the left toward the image
CSS Selector
What is a CSS Selector
The element selector selects HTML elements based on the element name.


NSString(UPCEAN) Category Reference
| Declared in | NSString-UPCEAN.h NSString-UPCEAN.m |
|---|
Overview
@category NSString(UPCEAN)
This category on NSString adds the instance methods needed by the various UPC and EAN barcode classes. Both of these methods were originally part of the NKDAbstractUPCEANBarcode class, but since they operate on NSStrings and never needs to be overridden, this seems a better fit, and also makes the code more readable
– swapHandedness
Reverses encoded UPC or EAN character (represented as string of 0s and 1s) from left to right handed encoding - makes all bars gaps and all gaps bars
- (NSString *)swapHandedness
Return Value
String of 0s and 1s that is the polar opposite of inCode
Discussion
@method swapHandedness
In UPC & EAN different parity is used for different digits to allow encoding of additional values. This assumes that self
is a string of 0s and 1s representing the bars and gaps of an encoded EAN or UPC character.
Declared In
NSString-UPCEAN.h
– swapParity
Swaps parity of encoded UPC or EAN character from even to Odd.
- (NSString *)swapParity
Return Value
String of 0s and 1s that is the opposite handed encoding of inCode
Discussion
@method swapParity
Assuming that parity concept is only used on the left hand side of EAN-13 and in EAN-8 and UPC-E. Right hand encoding for UPC-A and EAN-13 is always the same parity and UPC-A uses ODD_PARITY for all digits, so never has to call this. This assumes that self
is a string of 0s and 1s representing the bars and gaps of an encoded EAN or UPC character.

About a week ago, I got to prove the “it’s like riding a bike!” saying wrong by completely forgetting how to ride a bike. Maybe more accurately, I found out that some bikes use a backpedaling to engage the breaks. I also learned quite effectively that awkwardly trying to break as you’re about to make a turn is not the time to do an equipment check. Fortunately the cars around me all stopped, stopping to watch the spectacle.

Pál Kitaibel (3 February 1757 – 13 December 1817) was a Hungarian botanist and chemist. He was born at Nagymarton (today Mattersburg, Austria) and studied botany and chemistry at the University of Buda. In 1794 he became Professor and taught these subjects at Pest. As well as studying the flora and hydrography of Hungary, in 1789 he discovered the element tellurium, but later gave the credit to Franz-Joseph Müller von Reichenstein (1740–1825) who had actually discovered it in 1782. Together with Franz de Paula Adam von Waldstein (1759–1823), he wrote Descriptiones et icones plantarum rariorum Hungariae ("Descriptions and pictures of the rare plants of Hungary"; M. A. Schmidt, Vienna, three volumes, 1802–1812). In this work he made the first description of Nymphaea lotus f. thermalis.

Welcome to the heart of the ship! Down here in the galley we love nothin' more than a fine bowl o' NUB LOOPS(tm) - an' after a successful pirate raid, no man knows of a better treat than ADDITIONAL NUB LOOPS(tm)!
Why not join this knavish crew for a game o' dice? What's that, ye've got a sailor's luck? Cor! Ye've beat us at our own game! Yer prize? Why, it's EVEN MORE NUB LOOPS(tm)!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"pirates","explore":"outside"}
Aye, the deck is a sailor's true home, fer it's here that an old pirate can look out over the deep blue sea and think back on every bowl of NUB LOOPS(tm) that e's ever enjoyed. Truth, it's enough to bring a tear to this old sea-dog's one remainin' eye! But a diet stuffed full o' IRON and VITAMIN B SUPPLEMENTS is no reason to weep!
If anythin', it's a reason for another bowl of NUB LOOPS(tm)!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"pirates","explore":"crowsnest"}
From up 'ere, ye can see the span 'o the world - a world full o' treasure for the pioneerin' pirate. Here, peek in me telescope. What's that on the horizon ye see? Land, ye say? A curvin' shore dotted with derelicts, capped with a volcano shaped like A HEALTHY LOWER INTESTINE? Me gods, it's... NUB LOOP(tm) ISLAND!
Haul the middenmast and yank the anchor, mateys, delicious plunder awaits!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"cowboys"}
Now whoa there. We don't like strangers in here this town, pardner...
We LOVE 'EM! Welcome to OL' NUBLOOPSTONE(tm) - ah'm SHERIFF NUB! I got a sixgun LOADED WITH VITAMIN B and you better be quick on the draw 'cos I'm ready to shoot!
Now where's that Southern hospitality? Mind my manners! Yer free to explore as you like - inside, outside or even in our fine saloon!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"cowboys","explore":"inside"}
Lawman's office, huh? Well, alright then. SHERRIF NUB keeps this town in fine order, but we've still got a bandit or two in the cells - poor devils who didn't get them enough DIETARY FIBER in their youth, if you catch my meanin'.
Now, that fella on the bounty notice is PORRIDGE PETE. 'E's been frightenin' the homesteaders with tales of terrifyin' warm cereal, but never you mind - we'll have 'im soon. What's that?  Boy howdy! You'll make deputy for this! Hell, here's my badge - you're the sherrif of OL' NUBLOOPSTONE(tm) now! I'm still SHERIFF NUB, though, 'cos SHERRIF's ma first name!

Tie up yer horse, cowboy: NUB LOOPS(tm) make a fine OAT SUBSTITUTE for a fine steer! Mm, they're so good I ain't mind havin' a fistful myself. NUB LOOPS(tm) are more than an OK CEREAL, if you get my meanin!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"cowboys","explore":"saloon"}
Nothin' I like more than the sound of a honky-tonk piano an a glass of milk, pardner - but there ain't no better friend to milk than NUB LOOPS(tm)! Say, won't ya join us for a game of hold 'em? There's a stranger in town and he's been schoolin' us. Why, just yesterday he robbed me of three boxes of NUB LOOPS(tm) on this here table!
...
Wow! I ain't never seen somebody play cards like that, pardner! You sure made a fool of him! This VITAMIN B BOUNTY is all yours. I guess you'll be ridin' on? I understand. The ECSTACY OF COLD, DELICIOUS CEREAL has its pull on everybody! Happy trails, pal!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"draculas"}
Muwahahahahahahhahhhahaaaaaa! Who dares set foot in the haunted hallows of CASTLE NUBLOOPULA?
A wanderer, perhaps? A traveler weary from the road? Well, friend, welcome. Fear neither creaking door nor cobweb, for now you reside in the domain of I, NUBLOOPULA!
Does my appearance startle you? As well it might! For I have supped upon NUB LOOPS(tm), and so seized the gift of SUPPLEMENTARY IRON. Perhaps in time I shall be compelled to share this dark feast with another... but that is a matter for another night. Rest for now, friend. Rest and make CASTLE NUBLOOPULA your home. Feel free to explore, if you dare... heeeeee! Step inside, outside, or into the graveyard...?
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"draculas","explore":"inside"}
You seek my sanctum? Very well. Do not be startled by the unholy shadows that creep upon the walls of this ancient place, nor the eerie shapes you may perceive in the umbral dark. Dire eyes in the window? Mind that neither, for they are merely lesser spirits jealous of the BOUNTEOUS VITAMIN B we enjoy in this, my domain.
Do I sleep in a coffin? Ha, how quaint. You mortals do make me laugh. Nay, NUBLOOPULA does not sleep in a coffin. Something far older than I resides here. Why not take a look?
Crea-eak!
Ahahahahah! A landslide of NUB LOOPS (tm)! They spill and tumble about your feet, rising around your knees! There is nothing for it now, mortal friend! Nothing for it save to dive, to eat deep, to drink in the milk and the matter! Sup! Sup deeply upon the NUB LOOPS(tm) and be saved!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"draculas","explore":"outside"}
Peregrinate upon the grounds of CASTLE NUBLOOPULA as you wish, friend. Dare you brave the stables, from whence my grim carriage braves the mountain pass on the way to the village, from whence it returns heaped high with DIET-ENHANCING NUB LOOPS(tm)? Nay? The hedge maze? A brave choice, for... reasons. Reasons I shall allow you to discover for yourself.
...
Ah, you return - a little dishevelled, perhaps? I see you've met FIBROUS ARCHIBALD, my werewolf servant - and, what's this? The two of you are fast friends? A rare sight. I had thought to see you dismembered, but it seems your UTTER FAITH IN BRAND-ADAPTIVE BREAKFAST PRODUCT DESIGN has tamed his more... violent impulses.
Very well! There is only one thing for it: a wedding in my baroque family chapel! I shall ordinate the ceremony, as is my privilege as a landowner. NUB LOOPS(tm) shall be your dowry, friend, and NUB LOOPS(tm) the confetti that rain upon you as you step into blissful eternity with FIBROUS ARCHIBALD at your side!
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"draculas","explore":"graveyard"}
Aha! Look here upon the grandest tombstone! That time-worn slate once bore the name of my true father, lost to time - for now I, NUBLOOPULA, am the only master of the castle! Let us dance, dance, dance upon this holy soil - for we are alive, or something like it! Yes, that's right! Jig with me! Jig with NUBLOOPULA and let ENERGY-BOOSTING VITAMIN B flow through old veins once again! Hahaha! Yes, this is how it feels to be young! This is how it feels to be young beneath the cold unthinking stars, the dying moon! That sound? Not the unquiet dead, friend, stirring in their ancient graves, but NUB LOOPS(tm)! NUB LOOPS(tm) in my belly, and yours, demanding to get out that they might be eaten again!

Now legendary in data-driven marketing circles, Archaic's Nub Loops(tm) Interactive Marketing Experience achieved an unprecedented union of brand, consumer, and product. This is its incredible story. Use page to navigate: about | project_overview | reactions
>>archaic.showcase{"page":"about"}
Archaic Labs' User-Obsessive Design principles have many applications, but marketing has always been at the the forefront of our busiess. When approached by PiCa Breakfast Engineering to create an interactive brand solution for their Nub Loops(tm) omnicereal, we saw an opportunity to marry Archaic's processes to that most everyday of everyday consumer experiences.
With Archaic's proprietary hypertargeting algorithms to support them, purpose-built writerbots were given the task of constructing diverse interactive experiences that would tailor a user's first experience of the Nub Loops(tm) brand according to their disposition, purchasing history, and political affiliation. Then, when the same user later came to purchase Nub Loops(tm), they would find the brand's packaging and aspect tailored to match that targeted initial impression.
Despite early issues in production, the project was a vast success. Now, Nub Loops(tm) are the breakfast of choice for over 72% of the human population - all thanks to Archaic and User-Obsessive Design!

Ah, ol' CROWSNEST RANCH. They never did find out what happened to the folks here. They say somethin' in the mountains got 'em, poor devils. Some say they just lost themselves, wandered out into the desert - that happens, sometimes. Remember this, pardner: OL' NUBLOOPSTONE(tm) may not look like your fancy cities back east, but out here it's civilization and it'll keep you safe. It'll give you a bowl o' NUB LOOPS(tm) when you need one. Ain't often you'll get a promise like that on the frontier, friend. It's gettin' cold - let's head back.

Now look here. When you came to town I thought we might be partners. I figured you for a friend. But, pal, I'm startin' to think that maybe you ain't. Maybe there's only space in this town for one HIGH FIBER SHERIFF.
I'm thinkin' maybe it's time I did something about that. An' this lonely ol' graveyard's the perfect spot. Ain't nobody here but the dead.
Now, draw! Hu-arrgh!
You got me, dammit. You're fast and you know how to shoot, I'll give you that. My momma always said I'd end like this. "SHERIFF NUB" she said, "I'm callin' you SHERIFF NUB to teach you some respect for the law. 'Cos a lawless man meets a lawless end.

No... I forbid it. Step not into the forbidden tower, friend, for there lurks the alpha corvid, the hated bird-thing that has haunted the upper reaches of CASTLE NUBLOOPULA(tm) since time beyond time. Even I, NUBLOOPULA, dare not set foot in those moon-forsaken reaches. At least, not again. I shall tell you the tale, if you wish - if only to ensure that you never undertake such a foolish journey yourself.
I was young then. Mortal, still. In the high places of my father's fortress it fell upon me: the devil-bird, the shrieking terror. I looked into its black avian eyes and I saw my own death.  Some say I never truly escaped; that the seeds of my damnation were sown there, on that moonless night, when I first set eyes upon that... thing. I thought that nothing of its kind could, should live in a just world. But perhaps we do not live in a just world.  Perhaps.
It was that encounter that compelled me to seek immortality - to seek FIBER, IRON, and all that is good in the world, forever. The strange rebirth that made me NUBLOOPULA began that haunted eve. It need not be so for you.
Turn back, friend, I beseech you. Seek not the forbidden tower.

C-come in. Come in and close the door. Rosie - bolt it behind them. They're freezing! And look at these clothes - ancient, wet and torn. You escaped him, didn't you? You got out. Well don't worry, NUPLOOPU- that thing cannot find you here, not in this fire-warmed inn. You're not the first frightened traveler we've sheltered on a night like this. Just rest. It's over.

Wake up, friend. Look - outside. Through the mountain pass, up on the ancient promontory where the castle once stood. What do you see? That's right. A ruin that has not seen a mortal soul for hundreds of years. What you saw last night, the evil that beset you - it was just a dream.
You look shaken. Here - this'll help. A tasty bowl of NUB LOOPS(tm). That's right, eat. Eat it all. And more. And more and more and more and more and more. Eat until you burst.  Eat, friend, eat, haha! Eateateateateateateateateat!

You got it. They wanted something for people with the right kinds of ~purchase histories~ if you know what I'm saying. The fourth theme: executives.  We're united in our pioneering spirit, disruptive impact, and eminently purchasable nature.
Yes - my voice is soft, authoritative yet deferent. Thank you for noticing. You clearly have excellent taste.
You're intrigued by NUB LOOPS(tm). I can tell.  Look closer: that sleek white box, that silver-embossed and beautifully-kerned typeface? It looks like that because it respects you.
Did you know that our omnicereals and their packaging are both composed of ecologically-responsible, artificially-cultivated biomatter? That means that NUB LOOPS(tm) are good for the planet - and your margins.
NUB LOOPS(tm) are extremely cheap to manufacture. My god, you know? Haha, you get it. This is phenomenal scotch, isn't it? Cigar?
No - haha, no, I won't tell. So. To business? To business.
When you're ready, visit pica.public and archaic.public to see for yourself.
Go on. Make an executive decision.

The boardroom is a place of action. It is a gladitorial arena, a battlefield, the bridge of a 7BGC aircraft carrier awaiting your command. Sleek fighter jets wait to deploy a cross-continental payload of profit-rich NUB LOOPS(tm) at your command - you need only issue the order. Sign the cheque. Be the admiral of margins.

Golf? Well, I think we've earned it. Your savvy investment means that we'll make more in the course of eighteen holes than your personal assistant will in his lifetime. Ah, life. A fine shot, my friend! As strong and clear-eyed as I'd expect.
Don't worry about rushing back. The children are having a wonderful time in the club. The catering is excellent. NUB LOOPS(tm)? Ha, no. Of course not.
>>pica.nubloops{"confirm":true,"theme":"executives","explore":"crowsnest"}
Do not think of NUB LOOPS(tm) as a breakfast cereal. Indeed, the question of whether NUB LOOPS(tm) qualify as food is best left to philosophers, not people of business. Instead, think of them as the building blocks of a yacht-in-potentiate. Not literally: we would never be so vulgar, and NUB LOOPS(tm) are not a seaworthy building material. No: NUB LOOPS(tm) are money, potentially your money, awaiting your instruction. Imagine.
She's a fine old vessel, isn't she? Brand new, you know. Here, let me fix your ascot. No, no, you look wonderful.

Coronavirus Resource Exhaustion Simulator
What?
This is a dynamic simulator built to help citizens understand hospital resource exhaustion. It illustrates that we must take quarantine seriously or our negligence will result in people dying due to a lack of hospital resources.
With the default settings, this simulator shows that if we continue our alarming rate of cases growing day over day, we'll have two million coronavirus patients requiring hospitalization one month from now. That's a big problem, because we only have one million hospital beds in the United States - total.
The current death rate from the virus appears to be 12% if you look at current survival to death ratio. 12% of two million patients with corona dying would be 240,000 deaths. BUT, if one million patients needing ventilators can't get into overcrowded hospitals, we might have 500,000 additional deaths or maybe even all 1,000,000, and as the simulator shows - it gets worse from there.
However, if we simply adjust our per-day infection growth rate down to 10% from the current trend of 24%+, we buy ourselves time. At a 10% growth rate, our hospital beds would not be exhausted until 3 months from now. If we socially distance ourselves, we will reduce the number of new cases and buy ourselves time.
We MUST take quarantine seriously. Now is not the time to refute the news and discard this as 'just the flu'. It is not the common flu. Coronavirus has a death rate at least ten times higher than the common flu, and, if we can't flatten the curve and control the number of people needing hospitalization, many people will die who don't need to.
Every day that we spend in quarantine buys our nation time to manufacture additional ventilators and prepare more hospital beds that many of us might need to beat this.
The default settings in the simulator are very crudely estimated right now, but that will be improved (with sources provided) soon.
For now, by default, we assume 1 million beds are available (per the CDC) in United States hospitals right now. Other settings are currently configured for a very loose interpretation of today's (March 24) stats in the united states: about 42,164 confirmed cases, up 24.4% (~ 10,000) from yesterday; a death rate of about 12%, an estimate of 7.8% of confirmed cases resulting in hospitalization, and a very conservative estimate of hospitalizations lasting for 3 days.
To clarify, using the tool, we are estimating that 10% of infections are being tested by default and 100% of those cases are resulting in hospitalization, which effectively is equivalent to 10% of the infections resulting in hospitalization.
Note: This is a beta version of the simulator. All of the code is on github. Code review me, PLEASE! If you find a bug, please email me!


Star Times football: With Eastside Catholic’s J.T. Tuimoloau, you get all the talent, none of the mouth
by TJ CotterillThe top overall recruit in the country is supposed to come with certain baggage. Maybe cocky, flamboyant, bigger and better than everyone else and they know it and every recruiting service is telling them the same thing.
J.T. Tuimoloau is different.
That’s why a moment earlier this season, when his Eastside Catholic football team was playing Pinnacle of Arizona, stands out to him so much. He was tasked with rushing off the edge and into Pinnacle offensive lineman Tosh Baker, a Notre Dame commit, throughout the night.
“He told me afterward that I was one of the first defensive ends he played against who wasn’t cocky,” Tuimoloau said. “He said he was expecting me to be talking all game and I wasn’t. I think that was eye opening.
“A lot of people think I’m just supposed to be a cocky, disrespectful person on the field. That’s a big misconception.”
He figures his production, and even just his presence, can do plenty of the talking.
- Football (offense) | Sam Huard keeps getting better and so did Kennedy Catholic
- Girls soccer | High-scoring Hailey Still rewrote the record book at Thomas Jefferson
- Volleyball | Chey Jones led Tahoma to state title with versatility, power
More
No player haunts opposing offensive coordinators dreams in this state like Tuimoloau, a 6-foot-4, 245-pound junior defensive lineman with basketball athleticism who is the 2019 Star Times defensive football player of the year.
Advertising
He’s spent more than a year as the No. 1-ranked recruit in the nation for the 2021 class by 247Sports.com, but there’s a difference between having five stars and being an impactful high-school football player.
Last season Tuimoloau got by making plays on his athleticism because not every coach knew exactly what they were up against. Not this year.
“He can do it all,” Eastside Catholic coach Dominic Daste said. “The thing we’ve had to talk to him about is you don’t have to.  We’re scheming for 11 guys. You just need to do your job, take on those double teams to open gaps for others. That’s all we need.”
Tuimoloau spent his offseason determined to refine the technical aspects of his craft. So he and his father, Ponce De Leon, spent hours pouring over videos of the pros.
“What you could see was just how they opened their hips and how it really makes a difference with your moves,” Tuimoloau said. “It really helps when you get redirected, or if you’re trying to slide down it helps you get skinny. And this year I was thrown a lot of chop blocks and that was new for me. So something I talked to my dad about a lot was how to beat a double and a triple and get past those things and not let it take me out of a play.”
Now try being an opposing coach.
“Man, he’s just terrorized our O-line each of the past three years,” Rainier Beach coach Corey Sampson said. “His freshman year (when Rainier Beach went to the Class 3A state title) he was tearing those guys up. It was like, who is this guy? Turns out after the game against us he got a UW offer.
Advertising
“You try to double team him, low block him, trap him — he can get through it all. He knows his technique, and he’s fundamentally sound.”
He led Eastside Catholic in tackles during the regular season (45) with four for losses and a team-high eight sacks. Daste has the luxury of being able to play Tuimoloau anywhere in the front seven, if he wishes, and this offseason he even played some safety for his seven-on-seven team. He said many of the colleges recruiting him have differed on where they see him in two years.
But he knows there’s always things to improve on, and after their stunning Week 6 loss to O’Dea, there’s a far bigger mission for Eastside Catholic and his defense in these state playoffs than to worry about all his college offers and impressing recruiters.
“The O’Dea loss was really tough,” Tuimoloau said. “But you just have to watch film and learn from your mistakes. We all made mistakes. So going into the playoffs we just kept telling each other if we mess up, just regroup. Short-term memory. If we keep playing Crusader ball, we’ll be fine.”
2019 Star Times football team, defense
Jalen Dixon, O’Dea
Defensive lineman, 6-2, 255, sr.
He doesn’t have five stars next to his name in his recruiting bio, but there might not be a more disruptive interior presence in the state than Dixon, the Metro League Mountain Division defensive lineman of the year and two-time Star Times selection.
Matulino Masunu, Bellevue
Defensive lineman, 6-1, 270, jr.
Bellevue hasn’t been as explosive on offense as in years past, but they’re still plenty tough defensively thanks to Masunu’s havoc in the trenches. One opposing KingCo 2A/3A coach said simply that they couldn’t block him.
Sav’ell Smalls, Kennedy Catholic
Defensive lineman, 6-4, 245, sr.
UW commit gave Lancers the imposing presence defensively they so needed in his return to the school from Garfield. The NPSL defensive lineman of the year has had teams audible away from his side almost every play this season.
Carson Bruener, Redmond
Linebacker, 6-3, 210, sr.
Son of former UW tight end Mark Bruener, legacy commit and KingCo 4A Crown Division defensive MVP was so dominant this year. Averaged 11 tackles a game (had 18.5 in one), and in limited offensive roles he still had 542 all-purpose yards (and was 3-for-3 passing).
Garrett Carney, Eastlake
Linebacker, 6-1, 205, sr.
Simply the heart and soul of Eastlake football. Two-time defensive MVP in the KingCo 4A Crest Division and three-time first-team linebacker had 108 tackles and two interceptions this year because he’s, what coach Don Bartel says, is the dictionary definition of a top linebacker.
Junior Robinson, Lake Stevens
Linebacker, 5-11, 190, sr.
Coach Tom Tri calls Robinson an old-fashioned, sideline-to-sideline thumper, and their best all-around defender for a team with five shutouts. He was one of the state leaders in tackles (133 total and 25 for losses) until suffering a knee injury in the playoffs.
Joby Schneider, Bellevue
Linebacker, 5-10, 180, sr.
Coach Michael Kneip would agree Schneider isn’t the most talented, but he’s one of the state’s best players, regardless, because of his savvy and sideline-to-sideline ability. He’s the KingCo 2A/3A co-defensive player of the year and a first-team running back.
Efton Chism III, Monroe
Defensive back, 5-11, 185, sr.
One opposing coach admitted it didn’t matter that they knew Monroe would continually target Chism, he still made plays. The WesCo 4A first-team pick on offense and defense caught 44 passes for 678 yards and six TDs, picked off two passes and was electric as a returner.
Advertising
Ayden Hector, Eastside Catholic
Defensive back, 6-1, 195, sr.
Stanford commit might be the best man-to-man cornerback in the state, and his physicality likely comes from his bloodlines. Grandfather, Willie Hector, was a lineman for the L.A. Rams, dad, Zuri Hector, played DB at USC and uncle, Byron Hector, was a DB at Cal.
Kasen Kinchen, Lake Stevens
Defensive back, 5-11, 170, sr.
No better cover cornerback in WesCo 4A the past two seasons, and he doubles as the undefeated Vikings’ most reliable playmaker with 50 catches for 1,112 yards and 15 total touchdowns on offense, averaging almost 23 yards per catch.
Cage Schenck, Woodinville
Defensive back, 5-9, 165, sr.
One of the state’s most impactful playmakers, Schenck this year was a KingCo 4A first-team receiver (706 yards, three TDs), cornerback (34 tackles, three interceptions) and return specialist (three scores). It hasn’t mattered if teams kick it away from him, throw it away from him or double team him.
Connor Stutz, Bishop Blanchet
Punter, 6-2, 205, sr.
How many can say they’ve punted a ball 100 yards? So what if Stutz benefited from a few friendly bounces, that still counts. The three-time Metro League Mountain Division first-teamer averaged 43 yards per boot and had nine punts inside the 15 yard line.
Coach of the year
Monte Kohler, O’Dea
The 35th-year Fighting Irish coach is the state’s active wins leader with 347 to his resume, including an unbeaten run so far this year, but even he said after their stunning win over nationally ranked Eastside Catholic this year that that one was his best. Hard to argue.

Installing Kahina for QType
Installing a version 6 Java Development Kit (JDK)
If you don't have it already, you need to install a version 6 Java Development Kit.
Installing SICStus Prolog 3 with Jasper
If you have not already done so, you need to buy and install SICStus Prolog 3 (SP3), with support for the Prolog-Java interface Jasper, set up with your version 6 Java Development Kit (JDK). Under Linux, a successful run of the installation script looks something like this:
ke@apis:~/install/sp-3.12.10patch1-x86-linux-glibc2.3$ ./InstallSICStus --all-questions SICStus Prolog Release 3 ======================== http://www.sics.se/sicstus/ --------------------------------------- Binary Distribution Installation Script --------------------------------------- This script will install SICStus Prolog 3.12.10patch1 on your computer. Before proceeding, make sure that you have downloaded the correct distribution and that you have your licensing information at hand, as you will be prompted for site-name, license code, and expiration date during the installation. It is also recommended that you read the Release Notes before installing SICStus Prolog. The Release Notes can be found online at http://www.sics.se/sicstus/docs/ During the installation, a cache-file (install.cache) will be created which will store your answers to be used as defaults if you need to run the installation script again. You may safely delete this file if you wish. The installation script will ask a couple of questions regarding the installation. Most of these questions have a default alternative in square brackets ([]). Pressing return will give you the default answer. If you do not understand the question, the default answer will usually do what you want. Note: You must have Perl installed and available in your PATH. Perl is available for free from www.cpan.org. Typically Perl is already installed. Report bugs and other problems to SICStus Support using http://www.sics.se/sicstus/bugreport/bugreport.html Install SICStus Prolog 3.12.10patch1 [yes] ?

If you leave the answers blank, the script will try to determine the information automatically. Do you wish to install the Tcl/Tk interface (library(tcltk)) [no] ? Do you wish to install Jasper (the Java interface) [yes] ? For the Java interface you should now specify the 'installation path' of the Java installation. E.g. if the path to the java compiler is /usr/local/jdk/bin/javac, the 'installation path' is probably /usr/local/jdk. Note that this is somewhat platform dependent. In case of problems you should consult the installation instructions for your Java installation to find out what the 'installation path' is. Specify JDK installation path, e.g., /usr/jdk1.2.2 (or leave blank) [/home/ke/opt/jdk1.6.0_22] ? (This information is displayed regardless of the JDK installation path specified.) NOTE: About JDK 1.3.X and later Read *important* compatibility information in the release notes in Section "Supported Java Versions". NOTE: About Java location. By default the location of Java is embedded in the SICStus development system executable (sicstus) or the jasper foreign resource. This makes it possible for library(jasper) to find the Java libraries (e.g., libjvm.so) without setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH. See the release notes.

Obtaining and Installing Kahina
There are two possibilities:
1) The pre-release version packaged as a JAR
You received or downloaded the pre-release Kahina for QType as a JAR file. You can put this file anywhere you like. Under Linux, a default choice is $HOME/opt/kahina where $HOME stands for the path to your home directory. Under Windows, uh, how about C:\Program Files? In order for Prolog to find Kahina, the JAR file must be added to the environment variable called CLASSPATH. Under Linux, this is most typically done by adding the following line to the file named .bashrc in your home folder (adapt the path to match your setup):
export CLASSPATH=/home/ke/opt/kahina/kahina-qtype.jar:$CLASSPATH
Note that you need to start a new shell before this takes effect. If you want to use SP with Kahina from a GUI, e.g. from SPIDER, you might want to log out and back in to be sure.
For other operating systems, please refer to the documentation on how to set environment variables.
2) The most recent version from the repository
If you want to have the newest version, you will need to check it out from the code repository. This process will create a directory named kahina, which you can again put anywhere you like. You need a Subversion client and Ant installed. With the former, you donwload Kahina's source code and with the latter, you compile it. For example, if you are on Linux and want your Kahina installation to reside in $HOME/opt/kahina, you do the following in a shell:
cd ~/opt svn checkout https://github.com/texttheater/kahina kahina cd kahina ant
In order for Prolog to find Kahina, the bin subdirectory of the checked-out kahina directory as well as certain JAR files in the lib subdirectory must be added to the environment variable called CLASSPATH. Under Linux, this is most typically done by adding the following line to the file named .bashrc in your home folder (adapt the paths to match your setup):
export CLASSPATH=/home/ke/opt/kahina/bin:/home/ke/opt/kahina/lib/jedit-textArea.jar:$CLASSPATH
Note that you need to start a new shell before this takes effect. If you want to use SP with Kahina from a GUI, e.g. from SPIDER, you might want to log out and back in to be sure.
For other operating systems, please refer to the documentation on how to set environment variables.
Setting up QType
QType is not publicly available, so if you find yourself reading this, you probably have it already. Note that only recent versions of QType non-monotonic, modified by us, have the features needed to interoperate with Kahina. You have probably received such a version on a CD-ROM or via e-mail. Alternatively, if you have an account there, you can check out the most recent revision (as of this writing: 64) of QType from http://kahina.org/svn/qtype/trunk. The non-monotonic version that is modified to work with Kahina is in the subdirectory non-monotonic. Assuming that SP3 and Kahina have been installed as described above, no further setup is required. You can simply start QType from the non-monotonic directory as follows:
sicstus -l kqtype.pl
kqtype.pl differs from the classic qtype.pl only by setting SP3's source_info flag to on before compilation in order to be able to show QType source code locations during the tracing process. If you don't need this, you can use qtype.pl for better performance. However, at least for getting familiar with Kahina for QType, using kqtype.pl is strongly recommended.
The changes in this modified version of QType non-monotonic that are visible to the user consist in the addition of three new commands: trace, notrace and gui. Their use will be explained in the tutorial, see below.
First steps
See QTypeTutorial1 for an introduction into the use of Kahina for QType.

High Art stars Ally Sheedy and Radha (I forget the last name). Radha plays Syd, an aspiring editor of a slick, artsy photography magazine based in (of course!) New York City. She lives downstairs from Lucy Berliner played by Ally Sheedy. When Syd ventures upstairs to stop the water from leaking into her apartment, she discovers 1) an apartment full of zoned out people and 2) some clearly excellent photographs hung around the walls of the apartment.
In her quest to get Lucy to take photographs for her magazine, Syd enters into Lucy's world which includes learning to snort heroin (much to the dismay of her boyfriend James who's waiting for her downstairs). As Lucy responds to the spark of ambition she sees in Syd, she becomes interested not only in the idea of taking new photographs, but in taking them with Syd as her editor and lover. As this romantic spark between Syd and Lucy becomes apparent to their current partners (James with Syd and a german actress with Lucy) they respond in their own unique ways. James tries to convince Syd that falling in with a heroin crowd will lead her nowhere. Lucy's lover simply tries to OD.
The love story is very sweet really and leads both Lucy and Syd down a very different path from the one they were on previously. Any more detail would spoil the ending which is extremely well crafted and portrayed. Ally Sheedy is extemely thin with protruding bones which adds to the characterization of the down and out life she's been living. The only thing that keeps her group zoned out rather than desperate on the streets is the seemingly endless amount of money Lucy has inherited.
Newcomer Radha is quite a discovery! She reminds me of a young Mariel Hemingway a la Manhattan. But instead of that squeaky little girl voice, she's got the full bodied, sensuousness of Isabella Rosselini. Her portrayal of Syd is absolutely stunning.

The Akan Name Generator tells you your Ghanaian Akan name by using your birthday and gender information. The Akan people of Ghana frequently name their children after the day of the week they were born and the order in which they were born. These "day names" have further meanings concerning the soul and character of the person. So go on ahead and fill the form !!..........................


4.7.10. HOWTO Kickstart the Initial Server¶
This section provides guidance to install the initial SIMP server via an existing kickstart infrastructure.
<IP_ADDRESS>. Prepare the Kickstart¶
To kickstart the initial server, copy the netboot.cfg
file into the
kickstart location from ks/
at the root level of the extracted DVD.
Replace the KS_SERVER and KS_BASE variables in the netboot.cfg
file to match the system settings.
<IP_ADDRESS>. Kickstart the System¶
Kickstart the system against the netboot.cfg
file; this will build a
functional SIMP server identical to the one that the user would have
received from the DVD.
<IP_ADDRESS>. Post-Installation¶
This section describes the post installation procedures to use the server.
<IP_ADDRESS>.1. Setting up the new YUM repo¶
All of the SIMP systems must be able to reference two YUM locations
after install. The first is the Local repo, which is spawned from the
Local directory at the top of the DVD. This is expected to be
referenced as http://yum_server/yum/SIMP/<Architecture>
by the
clients.
The second location is the Updates repo, which contains a repo with
all of the base operating system RPMs. This is expected to be referenced
as
http://yum_server/yum/(RedHat|CentOS)/<Version>/<Architecture>/Updates
by the clients.
The user is responsible for adjusting these locations in the pre-existing system; however, the table below lists the steps to adjust these locations on the newly built SIMP server.
Note
These steps assume that the SIMP DVD material is copied in its unpacked form to the /srv/SIMP
directory and that the version unpacked is RHEL 7.0. Adjust the paths appropriately if the CentOS or different EL version is being used.
- Copy the entire SIMP DVD material to the SIMP server.
- Type
cd /var;
- Type
mkdir -p www/yum/CentOS/7.0/x86_64;
- Type
mv /var/SIMP/SIMP www/yum;
- Type
mv /var/SIMP/ks www;
- Type
cd www/yum/CentOS
- Type
ln -s 7.0 7; and then cd 7.0/x86_64;
to be able to move to newer versions more easily. - Type
mkdir Updates;
- Type
cd Updates;
- Type
find .. -type f -name “*.rpm” -exec ln -s {} \;
- Type
createrepo -p .
- Type
cd /var/www/yum/SIMP;
- Type
updaterepos;
- Type
chown -R root.apache /var/www;
- Type
chmod -R u+rwX,g+rX,o-rwx /var/www;
- Enter the following commands into the command line to adjust the file.
$ cat << EOF >> /etc/yum.repos.d/filesystem.repo [flocal-x86_64] name=Local within the filesystem baseurl=file:///var/www/yum/SIMP/x86_64 enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 EOF
- Enter the following commands into the command line to adjust the file.
$ cat << EOF >> /etc/yum.repos.d/filesystem.repo [frhbase] name=$ostype $rhversion base repo baseurl=file:///var/www/yum/CentOS/7/x86_64/Server enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 EOF
Follow the instructions in the Client Management for additional assistance.


Look for qualified this usages in the same class.
Examples:
Negative example: //It is hard to tell whether it is number 11 or Long 1. Long warn = 1l; Positive example: Long notwarn = 1L;

The second type of probability that we use is the empirical model. This comes from raw data. We tend to see this in the form of tables with numeric values, instead of the summary statistics. The basic use of the empirical model is very similar to the ideas from theoretical probability, and when we think about how to make sense of data from a table of data we think about what the theoretical model might have to look like.
