Pmw is a toolkit for building high-level compound widgets in Python using the Tkinter module.
It consists of a set of base classes and a library of flexible and extensible megawidgets built on this foundation. These megawidgets include notebooks, comboboxes, selection widgets, paned widgets, scrolled widgets and dialog windows.
If you are not sure what to do with a "tar.gz" file, or if you are having trouble unpacking the Pmw distribution, read Getting started with Pmw (also included in the download).
The Pmw home page and project site is made available courtesy of SourceForge. 5 August 2007


This is a section that describes the less mechanical aspects of a character to round out personality. Goals, Habits, and Facets are meant to round out a characters personality. There are no set values for these, and they are inherently intimate to a character and a player. They are also individual to every character.
Goals: Goals are simply things that the character wants to do, life goals, temporary goals, anything that the character believes should be done. These can be anything from a simple goal to find your brother, to something as grandiose as dethroning the king. Characters are encouraged to pick three of these that are meaningful and can get the player into interesting and dangerous situations.
Habits: Habits are things that your character does reflexively. “I scream when startled.” These may not be apparent to work against or for you immediately, but perhaps you scream loudly at a fancy dinner because the waiter brushed your back…that can be interesting.
Facets: Facets are things about your character that stand out, and are memorable. “Hairy,” “Hot-headed,” or “Clumsy,” things that people will remember you by. Again, these things might endear you to someone or antagonize others, and either way, it builds the story and tension.


Ant McPartlin says Katie Hopkins was one of his least favourite I'm A Celeb campmates
TV favourite Ant McPartlin has thrown a sly dig at controversial Katie Hopkins saying fans wouldn't remember her being on the show back in 2007
by Mirror.co.ukAnt McPartlin has thrown shade at controversial Katie Hopkins as he admitted she wasn't his favourite of the bunch of previous I'm A Celebrity campmates.
Katie, 44, shot to fame on The Apprentice in 2007 and starred in that year's series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
But Ant, 43, shed some light as to why the media personality - who holds a lot of unpopular opinions - wasn't seen too much on the show.
Telly favourite Ant confessed there wasn't much to her, saying "she didn't really shine".
He told The Sun : "Katie Hopkins was in I'm A Celebrity but you wouldn't really remember her doing it, as she didn't really shine."
And Dec Donnelly, 44, also opened up about the truth behind Gillian McKeith not participating in trials.
He said: "Gillian McKeith not doing trials was frustrating at the time but that was her journey on the show."
The Geordie star added he felt sorry for the people who were organising the Bushtucker trials as she refused to do them.
The 2019 series of I'm A Celeb starts tomorrow night and is already set to be a blast as the exciting new line-up of stars landed in Oz earlier this week.
Some of the favourite celebs heading into the dreaded Jungle include reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner, former EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa, football personality Ian Wright and Capital DJ Roman Kemp.
But on this year's show, there will be no live critters eaten in the Bushtucker trials after complaints from some animals lovers.
Sources at ITV say producers have taken a look at the trials and decided that no live critters would be used in the food-based challenges this year.
A source said: "They have been planning this for some time and actually last year beach worms were the only critters eaten live but this time around they've decided to implement the change fully and permanently."

Are there any theorems regarding not equals to in Lean, and if so what are some (with short description). Also what is the definition of not equal to in Lean?
See init.logic
starting here. The theorems there are simple enough that you should be able to figure them out from the types themselves, but if you're confused, feel free to ask.

Thanks

pandas.
concat
Concatenate pandas objects along a particular axis with optional set logic along the other axes.
Can also add a layer of hierarchical indexing on the concatenation axis, which may be useful if the labels are the same (or overlapping) on the passed axis number.
If a dict is passed, the sorted keys will be used as the keys argument, unless it is passed, in which case the values will be selected (see below). Any None objects will be dropped silently unless they are all None in which case a ValueError will be raised.
The axis to concatenate along.
How to handle indexes on other axis (or axes).
If True, do not use the index values along the concatenation axis. The resulting axis will be labeled 0, …, n - 1. This is useful if you are concatenating objects where the concatenation axis does not have meaningful indexing information. Note the index values on the other axes are still respected in the join.
If multiple levels passed, should contain tuples. Construct hierarchical index using the passed keys as the outermost level.
Specific levels (unique values) to use for constructing a MultiIndex. Otherwise they will be inferred from the keys.
Names for the levels in the resulting hierarchical index.
Check whether the new concatenated axis contains duplicates. This can be very expensive relative to the actual data concatenation.
Sort non-concatenation axis if it is not already aligned when join is ‘outer’. This has no effect when join='inner', which already preserves the order of the non-concatenation axis.
join='inner'
New in version 0.23.0.
Changed in version 1.0.0: Changed to not sort by default.
If False, do not copy data unnecessarily.
When concatenating all Series along the index (axis=0), a Series is returned. When objs contains at least one DataFrame, a DataFrame is returned. When concatenating along the columns (axis=1), a DataFrame is returned.
Series
objs
DataFrame
See also
Series.append
Concatenate Series.
DataFrame.append
Concatenate DataFrames.
DataFrame.join
Join DataFrames using indexes.
DataFrame.merge
Merge DataFrames by indexes or columns.
Notes
The keys, levels, and names arguments are all optional.
A walkthrough of how this method fits in with other tools for combining pandas objects can be found here.
Examples
Combine two Series.
>>> s1 = pd.Series(['a', 'b']) >>> s2 = pd.Series(['c', 'd']) >>> pd.concat([s1, s2]) 0 a 1 b 0 c 1 d dtype: object
Clear the existing index and reset it in the result by setting the ignore_index option to True.
ignore_index
True
>>> pd.concat([s1, s2], ignore_index=True) 0 a 1 b 2 c 3 d dtype: object
Add a hierarchical index at the outermost level of the data with the keys option.
keys
>>> pd.concat([s1, s2], keys=['s1', 's2']) s1 0 a 1 b s2 0 c 1 d dtype: object
Label the index keys you create with the names option.
names
>>> pd.concat([s1, s2], keys=['s1', 's2'], ... names=['Series name', 'Row ID']) Series name Row ID s1 0 a 1 b s2 0 c 1 d dtype: object
Combine two DataFrame objects with identical columns.
>>> df1 = pd.DataFrame([['a', 1], ['b', 2]], ... columns=['letter', 'number']) >>> df1 letter number 0 a 1 1 b 2 >>> df2 = pd.DataFrame([['c', 3], ['d', 4]], ... columns=['letter', 'number']) >>> df2 letter number 0 c 3 1 d 4 >>> pd.concat([df1, df2]) letter number 0 a 1 1 b 2 0 c 3 1 d 4
Combine DataFrame objects with overlapping columns and return everything. Columns outside the intersection will be filled with NaN values.
NaN
>>> df3 = pd.DataFrame([['c', 3, 'cat'], ['d', 4, 'dog']], ... columns=['letter', 'number', 'animal']) >>> df3 letter number animal 0 c 3 cat 1 d 4 dog >>> pd.concat([df1, df3], sort=False) letter number animal 0 a 1 NaN 1 b 2 NaN 0 c 3 cat 1 d 4 dog
Combine DataFrame objects with overlapping columns and return only those that are shared by passing inner to the join keyword argument.
inner
join
>>> pd.concat([df1, df3], join="inner") letter number 0 a 1 1 b 2 0 c 3 1 d 4
Combine DataFrame objects horizontally along the x axis by passing in axis=1.
axis=1
>>> df4 = pd.DataFrame([['bird', 'polly'], ['monkey', 'george']], ... columns=['animal', 'name']) >>> pd.concat([df1, df4], axis=1) letter number animal name 0 a 1 bird polly 1 b 2 monkey george
Prevent the result from including duplicate index values with the verify_integrity option.
verify_integrity
>>> df5 = pd.DataFrame([1], index=['a']) >>> df5 0 a 1 >>> df6 = pd.DataFrame([2], index=['a']) >>> df6 0 a 2 >>> pd.concat([df5, df6], verify_integrity=True) Traceback (most recent call last): ... ValueError: Indexes have overlapping values: ['a']

It all started when me and my friend (ill call him A) went on a random trip to burlington VT. We went in search of cannabis but instead we came to someone who told us he had 'foxie'. I have heard of this drug before and have always been skeptical of trying it but have always wanted to. I am a very experienced tripper and i would suggest that - at least 10 mg or up - anyone who tries this should also be experienced. Me and my friend got back home and we were very excited about this as we have heard so much about it. I went online to find out the best way to take this drug, and i came upon a post of someone shooting it. As sketchy as it sounds, and yes it sounded very sketchy to me, the report was too good to pass up. The following is my experience with 5-MeO-DiPT.
0:00 - Me and A went to the mall thinking it would be fun to walk around. We shot 5 mg each in the parking lot and proceeded to the macy's entrance.
0:05 - The effects immedietly kick in and the second we walk into macy's we are forced to turn around because the effects are so intense. I see colors, and the most noticable thing was the sound. A lady next to me was talking to somebody else and all i heard was 'waa-a-wa-wawa' me and my friend looked at each other and started dying with laughter because we had both experienced the same thing.
0:15 - driving home from the mall was a very intense - yet fun but not reccomended - experience.
[Erowid Note: Driving while intoxicated or tripping is dangerous and irresponsible because it endangers other people. Don't do it!]
0:30 - we arrived at A's house and decided to do a second 5 mg shot. Immedietly after i had a very intense rush of feeling and colors and it lasted for about 30 min before i went into a trip similar to LSD.
1:00 - i feel now as if i am on MDMA, LSD, and cocaine, i feel great. i am tripping exceptionally hard but at the same time i have a clear head and i can think straight.
2:00 - i now have alot less visuals but i feel as if im on ecstacy and this lasts for a few hours before the effects wear off.
In conclusion, although i have never tried it any other way, as sketchy as it sounds i really enjoyed shooting this drug.
Experience Reports are the writings and opinions of the individual authors who submit them.
Some of the activities described are dangerous and/or illegal and none are recommended by Erowid.

This page highlights the capabilities of the Spry Tooltip Widget. By default the widget will need to receive the id of the hidden element to be displayed when the mouse will move over the trigger elements. The trigger elements are sent in the widget constructor as CSS selectors. To see a sample of using Spry Data and the Tooltip widget, check this page.
The widget supports a limited list of CSS selectors. You can use class names, element ids and element HTML tags or any combination of these.
The tooltip may contain anything from simple text to complex HTML:
Mouse over me for simple tooltip or Mouse over me for complex tooltip
I'm a simple tooltip
Egypt is the fifteenth most populous country in the world. The vast majority of its 78.8 million population (2006) [1] live near the banks of the Nile River (about 40,000 km² or 15,450 sq miles) where the only arable agricultural land is found.The regularity and richness of the annual Nile River flood, coupled with semi-isolation provided by deserts to the east and west, allowed for the development of one of the world's great civilizations. A unified kingdom arose circa 3200 B.C., and a series of dynasties ruled in Egypt for the next three millennia. The last native dynasty fell to the Persians in 341 B.C., who in turn were replaced by the Greeks, Romans, and Byzantines.
It was the Arabs who introduced Islam and the Arabic language in the 7th century and who ruled for the next six centuries. A local military caste, the Mamluks took control about 1250 and continued to govern after the conquest of Egypt by the Ottoman Turks in 1517. Following the completion of the Suez Canal in 1869, Egypt became an important world transportation hub, but also fell heavily into debt.
You can use CSS selectors to specify a single trigger or multiple triggers for the same tooltip. In this case, the tooltip looks for 2 page element with 'selectMe' class applied to them.
<script type="text/javascript"> var multiple_tooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('tooltipMultipleSample', '#multipleSample .selectMe'); var multiple_tooltip2 = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('tooltipMultipleSample2', '.multipleSample2 .selectMe'); </script>
| Adobe Photoshop CS2 | Adobe® Photoshop® CS2 software, the professional image-editing standard and leader of the Photoshop digital imaging line, delivers more of what you crave. Groundbreaking creative tools help you achieve extraordinary results. Unprecedented adaptability lets you custom-fit Photoshop to the way you work.

| Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 | With Adobe® Dreamweaver® CS3, web developers go from start to finish, creating and maintaining basic web sites to advanced applications that support best practices and the latest technologies. |
By default, the tooltip shows up immediately. You can set delays to slow down the showing and hiding of the tooltip. These are set as an option in the constructor.
<script type="text/javascript"> var showDelay_tooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('showDelay', '#showDelayTrigger', {showDelay: 2000}); var hideDelay_tooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('hideDelay', '#hideDelayTrigger', {hideDelay: 1000}); </script>
In this sample, a CSS class is set on the trigger to alert the user that something happens on the element. This is set as an option in the constructor.
<script type="text/javascript">
var highlight_tooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('highlighttrigger', '#classonme', {hideDelay:500, hoverClass:"enlarge"})
</script>
Pyramids of Giza
By default, the tooltip is positioned 20px lower and to the right of the cursor. Setting the offsetX and offsetY allows you to set a new position for the tooltip. Pixels are measured from the cursor, not the original tooltip origin. The position indicates the top, left position of the tooltip element.
Positioned up and to the left | Positioned to the left and same height as cursor
<script type="text/javascript"> var positioned_tooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('option', '#option', {showDelay: 500, offsetX: -30, offsetY: -30}); var positioned2_tooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('optionValue', '#optionValue', {showDelay: 500, offsetX: "-200px", offsetY: "0px"}); </script>
The tooltip widget contains 2 built in effects for opening the tooltip: Fade and Blind. Set these as an option in the constructor. The values of the effects are hard coded and cannot be changed.
<script type="text/javascript"> var fadeTooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('fadeMe', '#fadeTrigger', {useEffect: 'Fade'}); var blindTooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('blindMe', '#blindTrigger', {useEffect: 'Blind'}); </script>

Sometimes, tooltips contain rich information such as links or forms. In these cases, the tooltip needs to remain so the user can interact with it. Setting the 'closeOnTooltipLeave' will leave the tooltip showing until the mouse leaves the tooltip element.
<script type="text/javascript"> var surveyTooltip = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('survey', '#surveyTrigger', {hideDelay: 1500, closeOnTooltipLeave: true, offsetX: "10px", offsetY:"-10px"}); </script>Mouse over me to complete this form
Another option for the tooltip is to have it follow the cursor while the cursor is in the trigger area. Setting the followMouse option will activate this.
<script type="text/javascript"> var followTrigger = new Spry.Widget.Tooltip('following', '#followMe', {followMouse: true}); </script>

When connecting to a PostgreSQL server, you might get error messages that need some more explanations. If you encounter them, please read the following information carefully, we’re sure they will help you.
If this message appears, there are two possible reasons for this: either the server isn’t running at all. Simply start it.
The other non-trivial cause for this message is that the server isn’t configured to accept TCP/IP requests on the address shown.
For security reasons, a PostgreSQL server “out of the box” doesn’t listen on TCP/IP ports. Instead, it has to be enabled to listen for TCP/IP requests. This can be done by adding tcpip = true to the postgresql.conf file for Versions 7.3.x and 7.4.x, or listen_addresses=’*’ for Version 8.0.x and above; this will make the server accept connections on any IP interface.
For further information, please refer to the PostgreSQL documentation about runtime configuration.
If this message appears, your server can be contacted correctly over the network, but isn’t configured to accept your connection. Your client isn’t detected as a legal user for the database.

{% block article %}
Last weekend [Gordon Webster][] came to Rochester, NY to play a dance at The
Keg. It was awesome (of course) and everyone had a great time.
I took a lot of photos during the course of the night (around 360 actually)
and some of them turned out pretty nice. A few people have wondered how I got
the look I did, so I decided to write a post about it.
I'm assuming you know what basic terms like aperture and shutter speed mean.
If not, look for a post over at [LindyBloggers][] fairly soon about shooting
dances with a point-and-shoot camera.
 I've since branched out and become interested in a lot
of other aspects of photography, but dancing is a huge part of my life and
photographing dancers is still something I absolutely love.
I (like many others) thought that getting a DSLR would let me take awesome
dancing photos with a bit of practice. Well, it's not that simple. Dances are
one of the hardest things I shoot for a couple of reasons.
### We Move
Dancing, especially in a dance like Lindy Hop, involves a lot of movement. It
makes focusing a huge pain unless you've got *really* good eyes. I don't. When
I first started out the majority (at least 70%) of my dance photos were out of
focus. It's much more difficult than shooting a still (or even slowly moving)
target.
Moving quickly also means you need a fast shutter speed if you want anything
to be sharp. You can focus perfectly but that won't freeze any movement. This
wouldn't be an issue if it wasn't for the second main problem.
### The Lighting at Dances is Awful
Seriously, it's terrible. It's always fairly dark to set the mood; you don't
want to dance in a brightly lit place unless you're competing. To make matters
worse, it's almost always ridiculously uneven. Part of the room with usually
be two or three stops darker than the rest.
Only shooting in one place helps, but is fairy boring. A lot of people will
stay in the same general area for most of the night (damn cliques!) and so if
you only shoot one section of the floor you'll miss a lot of people.
What Doesn't Work (for Me (Usually))
------------------------------------
I've tried a couple of different techniques to overcome these problems. Some
of them work in some situations but most of the time they leave me unhappy.
### Fast Primes, High ISO
The first remedy I turned to was buying a fast prime lens (Pentax 50mm f/1.4)
so that it would let in more light. With that lens I would turn up the ISO to
1600 or so to get even more sensitivity and hope for the best. This kind of
works, but has some issues.
#### The Good
Shooting with a fast prime means I only have to carry one lens around and
don't need to change it during the night. They're usually pretty light too, so
they're easier to work with. 50mm is a nice focal length that lets you stand
far enough away to not get kicked. You also don't need to annoy people with
flash.
The wide apertures let more light in so you can actually get some decently
exposed photos at workable shutter speeds. The ISO isn't much of an problem as
long as you expose the photo right (if you have to bring up the exposure more
than a half stop in post it looks terrible).
This solution really excels if you're shooting classes or workshops. The light
there is usually much better than at actual dances but still not ideal. The
wide apertures let you soak up all of that light and you can get some really
nice photos. The example in this section was taken at Girl Jam last year
during one of the classes with my 50mm.
 Maybe other photographers are better at manually
focusing or have amazing Canon/Nikon cameras that can focus on a black cat in
a darkroom, but I'm not and I don't.
The focal length of most fast primes is generally around 50mm. This isn't too
bad, but I've grown to really love wide angle lenses. 50mm feels too far and
detached for my taste. Yours may be different, so give it a try.
### Bounced Flash, Max Sync Speed
For a while I was adamant that I would never use flash. I figured it would be
annoying and that the "unnatural" light from the flash would somehow look
wrong. I avoided it for a while in favor of fast primes and "natural" light.
Eventually I noticed that some other photographers shot with flash at dances
and it didn't annoy me (while dancing) at all. I decided to give it a shot and
see how it worked, especially since I was getting really into [Strobist][] and
studio lighting at the time.
[Strobist]: http://strobist.com/
The basic idea is that you use an external flash (preferably off camera,
synched with a cord or radio triggers) and bounce the light from the ceiling
to get more even coverage. You set the aperture to something moderate like f/4
or f/5.6 and the ISO fairly low. You turn the shutter speed down as low as it
will go and still sync up and let the strobe do the hard work.
#### The Good
You get sharp photos! What's more, focusing is no longer something you will
curse vehemently! When you're shooting at f/4 or f/5.6 you have a good amount
of depth of field so the focus doesn't have to be absolutely perfect.
The flash only lasts about 1/1000 of a second. No one moves much in that time,
so you get perfectly sharp photos despite the movement.
Now that you're not relying on wide apertures you can start using different
focal lengths instead of sticking with the fast prime or two that you have.
You could even use a zoom lens if you don't want to change lenses all the
time.
#### The Bad
Bouncing from the ceiling is far, far better than keeping your flash on camera
and pointing it straight at the subjects, but unless the room has obnoxiously
high ceilings you're still going to get a lot of falloff towards the back of
the room. You might not mind; it *does* help isolate the subjects from their
surroundings but I found myself getting tired of it pretty quickly.
You also have to carry a flash, sync cord or triggers, and extra batteries
around which is kind of a pain. I don't mind, but if you like traveling light
it could bother you.
This section's example is one of the better results of this technique: Tango
Cafe's ceilings are very high so the light is pretty even everywhere. High
ceilings come at a price, however: you need more power from the flash to
illuminate everything and so can't shoot as fast.
Rethinking My Approach
----------------------
After using these two methods for a while I stopped and looked at my photos. I
wasn't as happy with them as I would have liked. I sat down and asked myself:
"Why is that?" The photos were exposed well and aside from the focusing
mishaps were pretty sharp. What was missing?
Eventually I came up with my answer: "Movement." Lindy Hop is very much about
movement; it's one of the most important parts of the dance, maybe even *the*
most important part. Getting tack sharp photos is great, but it's very hard to
convey movement with them unless you're a much better photographer than I am.
Most people are not photographers. Most dancers are also not photographers.
The majority of Lindy Hoppers will take photos with small point-and-shoot
cameras, *if* they can drag themselves away from dancing for a little while!
The result is that we don't usually see many dance photos (because we're too
busy dancing to take them) and the ones that we do see are usually blurry
(because point and shoot cameras in their default modes are just not equipped
to take sharp ones).
Even with their flaws, *we love them* because they're the few photographic
memories we have of some of the best nights of our lives.
I wanted people to have the same feeling toward my photography as they do
toward these informal snapshots. I wanted to capture the essence of these
pictures we're so grateful for but use my experience to make something even
better.
I think I've finally figured out how.
Using Everything
----------------
What evokes the feeling of movement in the point-and-shoot shots we look at? I
think it's the blurriness. Our culture is used to looking at photographs and
we know that "blurry photograph" usually means "moving subject" even if we're
not always 100% clear on the physics of it.
As photographers, we know what causes it. A subject moving while the shutter
is open produces blur. Longer shutter speeds mean more blur. The little
cameras that most of our memories come from simply don't have the aperture or
sensitivity of our hefty DSLRs – all the poor little things can do is
leave their shutters open a bit longer to get the light they need. That's why
those cameras make blurry photos with their default settings.
So how can I add some blurriness to my images? Use a slower shutter speed! I
also want to keep some sharpness though, so the dancers are more recognizable.
To do this, I use flash *at the same time*. The flash freezes the subjects
enough to make them look good and then slow shutter speed and ambient light
take over to add some movement.
### The Technique
What do you need to do this kind of thing? You can get by with any modern
camera with a built-in flash, but to really have the flexibility that will
make you happy you need the following things:
* **A camera with a hot shoe or PC jack and manual controls**. I use a Pentax
K20D when I feel like lugging it out and a Canon G10 when I don't.
* **An external flash.** I use an $80 Vivitar 285hv which will work with
anything, so no complaining about how your camera maker only sells $400
speedlights.
* **A way to sync your flash with the camera.** Some of the more expensive
flashes have a wireless mode. If not, you can buy radio triggers for $60 or
so, or buy a sync cable for $15 to $20. Trust me, having the flash *off* of
the camera makes things so much easier.
#### Step 1 – Dial in the Flash
The first step to getting this look is to figure out what kind of exposure you
need with *the flash alone* to get a well-lit shot.
Turn your shutter speed down to the fastest it will sync (1/180th is usually
fine) and use trial and error to find a nice combination of aperture, ISO and
flash power. The actual numbers will depend on several things: how low the
ceilings are, how powerful your flash is, etc.
Aim for the lowest flash power you can while still keeping a good exposure, a
narrow enough aperture to make focusing easy, and modest ISO noise. Once you
figure it out you can probably keep those settings for the rest of the night,
unless the ceilings are higher on one side of the room or something else
equally annoying.
#### Step 2 – Dial in the Ambient
This is the step that adds the movement. First, tone down your flash-only
exposure by a half or whole stop. Do this by reducing the ISO, aperture, or
flash power; any of those is fine.
Now that your photo is underexposed, turn off the flash. It will probably be
completely black now. *Do not touch the ISO or aperture to fix this.* Lengthen
the shutter speed until you're about two stops underexposed; it will be blurry
and dark as hell but this is what you want right now.
#### Step 3 – Combine and Adjust
Turn the flash back on. Do not touch any other settings – flip the
switch on the flash and start shooting. This will let the flash illuminate the
subjects (because you dialed in the power, ISO and aperture before and haven't
changed them) and the ambient fill in and add movement (because you adjusted
the shutter speed).
Your first few shots will probably be underexposed or overexposed and have too
much or too little blur. Don't worry, it always takes me at least a half hour
to start taking decent photos this way. You really need to play with the
settings as you go to find out what's going to work for the lighting *that
night*.
#### Things to Watch Out For
There are a couple of tricky parts to this style of shooting that I'll
mention. First I'll talk about the typical problems you'll see right away.
More than one of these certainly might apply; fix them one at a time.
* **If the background is dark or there is not enough blur,** you need to use a
longer shutter speed to let more ambient light in.
* **If the dancers are not sharp enough,** you need *more* flash power. Turn
it up a little bit at a time.
* **If people's shirts, faces and limbs are overexposed *and not blurry*,**
you need to turn down the flash. Bring it down a bit by reducing the power,
narrowing the aperture or reducing the ISO.
* **If shirts, faces and limbs are overexposed *and blurry*,** you need to
shorten the shutter speed to let less ambient light in.

It can be really infuriating, but if you slow down, stay calm and think
through it logically you'll be able to narrow it down and figure out what you
need. It's a really good feeling when you finally nail it.
There are two other tricky problems that I'm still working on myself:
* **Dances are unevenly lit.** When you walk over to the other side of the
room to shoot, you'll have to adjust the shutter speed to compensate for the
different amount of ambient light. You really only have a range of about
half a stop where the ambient gives you the right amount of blur, so you
have to be careful and stay on your toes.
* **Watch where you bounce.** In rooms with low ceilings, where you point the
flash on the ceiling has a huge effect on the lighting. You need to be
conscious of what part of the ceiling you're bouncing from to get good
results.
Good Luck!
----------
I hope this post helped you out. Even if you hate how my photos look and don't
want to make anything like them, at least it will show you what *not* to do.
I'd love to hear comments or advice on what you like or don't like, and what I
could do better. If you've got questions I'll do my best to answer them too!
Now go dance, have fun, and make beautiful photographs so we can all remember
the fantastic events we make happen!

The French Embassy Hackathon Series is a French Embassy in the US initiative in partnership with General Assembly's Joseph Nelson and Zach Thomas to encourage Franco-US integration, particularly in education. The series consists of two hackathons. The first event focuses on student mobility, and the second emphasizes improving US schools through French immersion programs.
Developers, data scientists, and UX designers of all ages and experience levels are encouraged to attend one or both events. All participants will be invited to attend a celebratory reception taking place at the French Embassy.
The freedom of movement between France and the US is tantamount to a successful relationship. Through support of study abroad programs, the French Embassy actively works to encourage this exchange of culture and ideas.
The first single day hackathon took place on Saturday, February 4th at General Assembly DC. This hackathon was a data-dive encouraging participants to comb through previous years of student study abroad information to identify where the Embassy should best be spending its resources to encourage future Franco-US integration. Participants presented their compelling data visualizations to Embassy staff, and three winning teams earned prizes from the Embassy. A video recap of the event is available here.
The French Embassy supports French language immersion programs in the US by placing French-speaking teachers in elementary and high school French departments.
At present, no single platform matching job-seeking teachers with French language teaching opportunities exists. This single day hackathon, taking place on March 11, focuses on UX ideation and developer implementation of potential solutions, ranging from (but not limited to) teacher networks to job boards. Sign up is now open.


A Brief Chat with NYC Machine Learning Organizer Paul Dix
On Thursday, January 16, Gilt VP Personalization Erik Lumer will be the featured presenter at the NYC Machine Learning group’s monthly meetup. Erik will talk about the art of personalization in flash ecommerce–covering the unique challenges for personalization posed by an online flash sale business, the methods that Gilt has tested to foster novelty in the recommendations of personally relevant products, and other related topics. RSVP here if you’d like to attend Erik’s talk, which starts at 7 PM at Pivotal Labs!
With nearly 4,500 members, NYC Machine Learning is one of the most popular technology-related meetup groups in New York City. What has been the key to its success? And how has the group changed over time? Recently I asked meetup co-organizer (and Errplane CEO, InfluxDB core committer, and Service Oriented Design with Ruby and Rails author) Paul Dix to share his thoughts on these and other questions:
Gilt: You started NYC Machine Learning in 2009. What sorts of meetups were you hosting then, and how were they different compared to your current events?
Paul Dix: In the very beginning I ran NYCML as a reading group. The format was something like this: I’d select a paper in machine learning research or we’d find one as a group, everyone would read the paper, and we’d meet once a month to discuss it. The first two months followed this format. In the third month, someone suggested a talk they wanted to give. Ever since then, that’s been the format of the group. Once a month, we get together to hear a talk from someone in academia, research, the start-up community, or business. The talks have covered a wide range of topics, including Artificial Intelligence, natural language processing, machine learning, search, information retrieval, big data infrastructure, and visualization.
Of the (76!) meetups you’ve hosted, which have been your favorites?
There have been so many fantastic talks that it’s hard to pick. Taking a quick look back, I’ll just pick four that caught my eye (of course, there are plenty more that I’d include in this list). In ascending order by date:
- Princeton Professor Rob Schapire, “Playing Repeated Games: Theory, an Algorithm, Applications.” I remember covering AdaBoost in class, so I was really excited to have him come speak. And his talk was really entertaining.
- CMU Professor Cosma Shalizi, “So, You Think You Have a Power Law, Do You? Well Isn’t That Special?” Cosma is a really well known statistician and has a great speaking style. This one was kind of a revelation to me as I had no idea that many things you think are power laws actually aren’t.
- Microsoft Machine Learning Research Scientist John Langford’s “Terrascale Learning.” John had given a talk at NYCML before, but this one was particularly awesome. The approach he used here blew my mind and made me completely rethink how Hadoop and distributed computing work.
- Peter Norvig. Max, my co-organizer, roped Peter into presenting, and we just put his name on the event. In my favorites because, come on, Peter Norvig!
Why did you start the group?
I started it for a couple of reasons. First was a purely selfish desire to try to stay current in machine learning and other topics that interest me. The second was that I wanted to help grow a machine learning community here in NYC. In 2007 I did an internship at Google, which holds internal machine learning meetups every two weeks. Google’s meetups weren’t open to the public, but the people who came and spoke at the meetings were great. [Google Director of Research] Peter Norvig, [Stanford professor] Mehran Sahami, and some other really heavy hitters would show up and participate in discussions or give talks. I wanted to see if I could reproduce the high caliber of those meetings for everyone here in NYC.
What do you think are the key elements of your group’s growth and success?
The most important factor has been consistency. Meeting up every month is huge. Every time I schedule a meetup, we get new members. The second factor: obviously fantastic speakers. Having presenters who come from academia and business has been great as well. With 4,500 members, we can’t get everyone in a single room–so with varied topics, there’s sure to be something every couple of months that any individual will probably be interested in. Finally, having a regular space has been really helpful. When everyone knows where to go, it’s easier. You hosted us for a while in the beginning, then we spent a few years at AOL, and for the last few years we’ve been at Pivotal. Having access to their space every month has been so helpful.
As a seasoned meetup organizer, what do you think are the essentials to organizing a great event?
All the obvious things. Have a space that’s easy for people to get to and find, offer a good setup for presenters, get an interesting speaker, and ask the speaker to provide as much detail as they can about the talk they’ll be delivering. I usually tell speakers to keep the talk between 30 minutes and an hour. People’s attention drops off after that, and besides, you want to give people time for questions and networking. I think it’s also a good idea to keep the Q&A time limited. People are there as much for the talk as they are to meet and talk to other people. Make sure there’s time built in for it.
Based on your observations, have any of the machine-learning topics that were “hot” in 2009 fizzled out or faded away?
I think recommender systems were much hotter in 2009 than they are today. I attribute that to the Netflix Prize, which was still going then. Once the team won, and Netflix decided not to implement the algorithm, it seemed everyone’s excitement calmed down. Recommendation systems are still important, but it seems they’re not as hot as they once were.
Other than your own group, what are some of your favorites in NYC?
The NYC.rb meetup is the one I’ve been going to the longest (since 2005). It’s a great group of people, and the topics reach well beyond just Ruby. I’m probably about 10x further along in programming and my career because of that group alone. Other ones of note: Ember.js, CTO School, the New York Hadoop User Group, and Go Language New York.
What are your goals for NYC Machine Learning in 2014?
 I’d also like someone to give a talk on deep learning. Other than that, I’ll be happy as long as we meet up at least once a month and have a great speaker to learn from.
Thanks for chatting, Paul!


An interface is a reference type in Java. It is similar to class. It is a collection of abstract methods. A class implements an interface, thereby inheriting the abstract methods of the interface.
Along with abstract methods, an interface may also contain constants, default methods, static methods, and nested types. Method bodies exist only for default methods and static methods.
Writing an interface is similar to writing a class. But a class describes the attributes and behaviors of an object. And an interface contains behaviors that a class implements.
Unless the class that implements the interface is abstract, all the methods of the interface need to be defined in the class.
An interface is similar to a class in the following ways −
An interface can contain any number of methods.
An interface is written in a file with a .java extension, with the name of the interface matching the name of the file.
The byte code of an interface appears in a .class file.
Interfaces appear in packages, and their corresponding bytecode file must be in a directory structure that matches the package name.
However, an interface is different from a class in several ways, including −
You cannot instantiate an interface.
An interface does not contain any constructors.
All of the methods in an interface are abstract.
An interface cannot contain instance fields. The only fields that can appear in an interface must be declared both static and final.
An interface is not extended by a class; it is implemented by a class.
An interface can extend multiple interfaces.
The interface keyword is used to declare an interface. Here is a simple example to declare an interface −
Following is an example of an interface −
/* File name : NameOfInterface.java */ import java.lang.*; // Any number of import statements public interface NameOfInterface { // Any number of final, static fields // Any number of abstract method declarations\ }
Interfaces have the following properties −
An interface is implicitly abstract. You do not need to use the abstract keyword while declaring an interface.
Each method in an interface is also implicitly abstract, so the abstract keyword is not needed.
Methods in an interface are implicitly public.
/* File name : Animal.java */ interface Animal { public void eat(); public void travel(); }
When a class implements an interface, you can think of the class as signing a contract, agreeing to perform the specific behaviors of the interface. If a class does not perform all the behaviors of the interface, the class must declare itself as abstract.
A class uses the implements keyword to implement an interface. The implements keyword appears in the class declaration following the extends portion of the declaration.
/* File name : MammalInt.java */ public class MammalInt implements Animal { public void eat() { System.out.println("Mammal eats"); } public void travel() { System.out.println("Mammal travels"); } public int noOfLegs() { return 0; } public static void main(String args[]) { MammalInt m = new MammalInt(); m.eat(); m.travel(); } }
This will produce the following result −
Mammal eats Mammal travels
When overriding methods defined in interfaces, there are several rules to be followed −
Checked exceptions should not be declared on implementation methods other than the ones declared by the interface method or subclasses of those declared by the interface method.
The signature of the interface method and the same return type or subtype should be maintained when overriding the methods.
An implementation class itself can be abstract and if so, interface methods need not be implemented.
When implementation interfaces, there are several rules −
A class can implement more than one interface at a time.
A class can extend only one class, but implement many interfaces.
An interface can extend another interface, in a similar way as a class can extend another class.
An interface can extend another interface in the same way that a class can extend another class. The extends keyword is used to extend an interface, and the child interface inherits the methods of the parent interface.
The following Sports interface is extended by Hockey and Football interfaces.
// Filename: Sports.java public interface Sports { public void setHomeTeam(String name); public void setVisitingTeam(String name); } // Filename: Football.java public interface Football extends Sports { public void homeTeamScored(int points); public void visitingTeamScored(int points); public void endOfQuarter(int quarter); } // Filename: Hockey.java public interface Hockey extends Sports { public void homeGoalScored(); public void visitingGoalScored(); public void endOfPeriod(int period); public void overtimePeriod(int ot); }
The Hockey interface has four methods, but it inherits two from Sports; thus, a class that implements Hockey needs to implement all six methods. Similarly, a class that implements Football needs to define the three methods from Football and the two methods from Sports.
A Java class can only extend one parent class. Multiple inheritance is not allowed. Interfaces are not classes, however, and an interface can extend more than one parent interface.
The extends keyword is used once, and the parent interfaces are declared in a comma-separated list.
For example, if the Hockey interface extended both Sports and Event, it would be declared as −
public interface Hockey extends Sports, Event
The most common use of extending interfaces occurs when the parent interface does not contain any methods. For example, the MouseListener interface in the java.awt.event package extended java.util.EventListener, which is defined as −
package java.util; public interface EventListener {}
An interface with no methods in it is referred to as a tagging interface. There are two basic design purposes of tagging interfaces −
Creates a common parent − As with the EventListener interface, which is extended by dozens of other interfaces in the Java API, you can use a tagging interface to create a common parent among a group of interfaces. For example, when an interface extends EventListener, the JVM knows that this particular interface is going to be used in an event delegation scenario.
Adds a data type to a class − This situation is where the term, tagging comes from. A class that implements a tagging interface does not need to define any methods (since the interface does not have any), but the class becomes an interface type through polymorphism.

Mechanism Design for Social Good (MD4SG) is a multi-institutional initiative using techniques from algorithms, optimization, and mechanism design, along with insights from other disciplines, to improve access to opportunity for historically underserved and disadvantaged communities. MD4SG is a community of researchers, policy-makers, and practitioners in various government and non-government organizations, community organizations, and industry working to foster collaborations across disciplines and build research and practice pipelines.
We take an interdisciplinary approach to improve equity and social welfare for marginalized groups. We have worked in problems across a variety of domains such as education, development, fairness and discrimination, housing, healthcare, inequality, and labor markets. Our goal is to facilitate interactions across academia, policy, and industry and to foster collaborations across disciplines. To this end, we organize a monthly online colloquium series, domain-specific working groups, workshops and tutorials, and other activities aimed at exploring new research directions, implementing and deploying solutions, and highlighting exemplary work.

Nike: The New Exxon
Wire Services | Submitted by: Mr. Ramon
"Thousands of pairs of Nike basketball shoes are washing up on beaches from Washington state to Alaska after spilling from a container ship in Northern California. There's just one hitch to finding a free pair. 'Nike forgot to tie the laces, so you have to find mates,' said Dr. Curtis Ebbesmeyer, an oceanographer who tracks sneakers, toys and other flotsam across the sea. 'The effort's worth it 'cause these Nikes have only been adrift a few months. All 33,000 are wearable!'"

More trouble in River City
Cincinnati Enquirer | Submitted by: buffaloBill
"For 18 years, Phillip Barnes was considered more than competent as a police officer...Barnes had been a Marine sergeant for 10 years and served in Desert Storm. He obtained a master's degree in social work. When Barnes took the sergeant's exam in 1998 , he scored 18th among 150 officers...At the time, he dressed for duty as a man but off-duty as a woman, with long hair, nails and makeup." Of course, will all of this happening in Cincinnati, you can guess what happens after the sex-change operation. While I support Officer Barnes and admire her courage, I wonder what delusional thought made her think she could get away with it in Cincinnati, of all places.

Bikini dancing nights resulted in complaints
Cincinnati Enquirer | Submitted by: buffaloBill
"Illusions Night Club, inside the Knights Inn motel, held shows Jan. 31 with male and female dancers in bikini bathing suits, according to West Chester police and the club's owner." The article goes on to describe how the motel is only a mile from the house of Phil Burress, head of Cincinnati's decency Gestapo. But there is a problem: "While the acts do not violate West Chester's zoning code, officials are taking steps to tighten that code to regulate "semi-nude" cabarets... However, it's unclear how dancers in bikinis could be classified as semi-nude even if the code is changed." I can't wait to see the busts (if you'll pardon the expression) when the locak water park opens this summer with all of its indecent, bikini-clad patrons. From the repeated stories we encounter about this area, it is very clear that Cincinnati is one of the most repressed places in America.

Did KGB's Beria avert WWIII by killing Stalin?
BBC | Submitted by: Rev. Soror Lucy Cannon
"What happened next was out of the ordinary for a man as obsessed with security as Stalin. He gave an order for his guards to retire for the night - he was not to be disturbed... This change to Stalin's normal behaviour intrigued Russian historian Edvard Radzinski, and a few years ago he tracked down one of the guards on duty that night, Pyotr Lozgachev."

The secret life of Saudi Grave diggers

"The custom is for grave diggers to check a grave about two years after burial. If the body has not decayed, it is covered and left. If it has decayed, the bones are then moved to another place. This frees the grave for reuse." also "What we do find in graves, however, are reptiles and scorpions. I have been stung many times by scorpions but, thank God, without being seriously harmed."

Fundies: Lose weight with Jesus
The Age | Submitted by: Hair Sphincter
Chins up, fat America! You can smite those kilos with the Lord! Halleluja! "Jesus has been called on to help Americans in their eternal struggle with obesity, with a diet dubbed "the healthiest ever devised by man".
Drawing on the inspiration of loaves, fishes, water and wine, a Florida doctor has published a self-help manual, What Would Jesus Eat?, and a companion volume, the What Would Jesus Eat Cook Book... Don Colbert said he wrote the book after realising that many of the fattest Americans were also dedicated Christian fundamentalists."

One of the key advantadges of rstoolbox
is the ability to control the amount
and type of data that is loaded from a silent/score file. This control is managed
through a definition
, a dictionary that describes the type of data that can be
loaded.
Note
definition
is meant to be applied to parse_rosetta_file()
.
As of now, there are 10 different options that can be convined into a definition
:
| definition term | description |
|---|---|
| scores | Basic selection of the scores to store. Default is all scores. |
| scores_ignore | Selection of specific scores to ignore. |
| scores_rename | Rename some score names to others. |
| scores_by_residue | Pick score by residue types into a single array value. |
| naming | Use the decoy identifier’s name to create extra score terms. |
| sequence | Pick sequence data from the silent file. |
| structure | Pick structural data from the silent file. |
| psipred | Pick PSIPRED data from the silent file. |
| dihedrals | Retrieve dihedral data from the silent file. |
| labels | Retrieve residue labels from the silent file. |
Tip
definition
can be passed directly as a dictionary or can be saved as a
JSON or YAML file and loaded from there.
This is the most basic parameter, and refer to regular scores in the silent/score
file. It allows to select just the scores that are wanted for the analysis.
There are three main ways to define scores
, provide a list naming the
scores of interest:
{'scores': ['score', 'packstat', 'description']}
add a string asterisc if all scores all wanted (this is the default value for this parameter):
{'scores': '*'}
or add a minus sign, which will ignore all scores:
{'scores': '-'}

Columns: []
Index: []
This is basically the oposite from the previous one, meant in case particular scores are
to be ignored. This is usefull when expecting to mix data from different experiments but
one has generated more score data than the other (for example, one needed loop closure and
includes some loop_closure
scores). Extra scores can affect the concatenation of the
different data containers as per pandas
constraints. There are two ways to define
scores_ignore
, either list the scores to skip:
{'scores_ignore': ['loop_closure', 'packstat']}
or a string asterisc if aiming to ignore all scores:
{'scores_ignore': '*'}
Allows to retrieve a particular score term with a different name. Again, usefull to merge data from multiple runs when some naming is not matching. It is defined as a dictionary in which keys are the original score names and values the new naming schema:
{'scores_rename': {'grmsd': 'globalRMSD', 'lrmsd': 'localRMSD'}}
Scores that target per-residue values are normally ignored by the library. This parameter
allows for them to be captured as a single vector score. As of now, the only available
score is residue_ddg_
:
{'scores_by_residue': ['residue_ddg_']}
as provided by Rosetta’s‘ ddG
mover:
<ddG name="(&string)" per_residue_ddg="1" "/>
Naming conventions are important. As long as one keeps that in mind, one could target particular identifiers inside a decoy description as new score columns, thus allowing to cluster different decoys for analysis. As an example, let’s assume that the naming of a set of decoys is such as:
nubinitio_auto_2015_binder_2pw9C_0001
In this case, three of the forut first elements of the identifier relate to the conditions of the experiment. To capture them, an array needs to be defined. As long as an identifier is set for an element, that element will be captured as a new score. Elements can be skiped with an empty string. The array has to be long enough to capture all the elements of interest, but it does not need to have as many fields as elements in the definition. Thus:
{'naming': ['experiment', 'fragments', '', 'binder']}
will create the three new scores with value nubinitio
, auto
, binder
.
Sequence data is integrated into the silent file as default. It can be captured and used to evaluate mutants and sequence drift amongst others. To retrieve that data, a string with the identifiers of all the chains of interest need to be provided, thus:
{‘sequence’: ‘AB’}
will allow to capture the sequence for chains A
and B
. Sequence data can
then be accessed through the appropiate getter functions of DesignFrame
and DesignSeries
, and is expected for any of the sequence analysis
functions and plots.
Secondary structure data can be loaded into the silent file by means of Rosetta’s
WriteSSEMover
:
<WriteSSEMover name="(&string;)" dssp="1" />
Similarly to sequence
, it can be loaded as extra data by calling the chains of
interest:
{'structure': 'AB'}
Secondary structure prediction data can be loaded into the silent file by means
of Rosetta’s WriteSSEMover
:
<WriteSSEMover name="(&string;)" cmd="/path/to/psipred" />
Similarly to sequence
and structure
, it can be loaded as extra data by
calling the chains of interest:
{'psipred': 'AB'}
Phi and psi dihedral angle data can be loaded into the silent file by means
of Rosetta’s WriteSSEMover
:
<WriteSSEMover name="(&string;)" write_phipsi="1" />
Angle data from specific chains can be loaded as:
{'dihedrals': 'AB'}
The data will be loaded as a single array of floats.
Residue labels allow to target residues through a simulation by a particular tag.
They can also be used to highlight residues with particular properties during the
simulation. They can be saved into the silent file with Rosetta’s
DisplayPoseLabelsMover
:
<DisplayPoseLabelsMover name="(&string;)" write="1" />
To retrieve that data, a list with the names of the labels of interest can be provided:
{'labels': ['MOTIF', 'CONTEXT', 'HOTSPOTS']}

This package provides routines for plotting linkage and association results along a chromosome, with marker names displayed along the top border. There are also routines for generating BED and BedGraph custom tracks for viewing in the UCSC genome browser. The data reformatting program Mega2 uses this package to plot output from a variety of programs.
