PDC World Championship: History & Stats
The World Darts Championship is the highlight of the PDC calendar and takes place over Christmas and New Year at the Alexandra Palace in London.
Since it was first held at the Circus Tavern in 1994 following the much-publicised breakaway from the British Darts Organisation, only seven different players have lifted the world title thanks largely to darts legend Phil Taylor winning it no fewer than 14 times during his astonishing career. He also won the BDO version twice before the split to make it 16 times in total.
Dennis Priestley beat Phil Taylor 6-1 in the first final before The Power's era of dominance began with eight straight world championships before Canada's John Part famously defeated him 7-6 in a classic in 2003 - much to the bookmakers' relief!
Three more crowns followed for perennial odds-on favourite Taylor before Raymond van Barneveld triumphed 7-6 in another unforgettable final, while John Part's victory over Kirk Shepherd in 2008 was the first time the Stoke thrower failed to reach the final in the tournament's history.
It was also the year the event switched to the Alexandra Palace. A resurgent Taylor claimed back-to-back titles in 2009 and 2010 before Adrian 'Jackpot' Lewis emerged on the world stage by beating Gary Anderson in the 2011 final before repeating the trick against Andy Hamilton 12 months later.
The Power reassured the doubters he could still win world titles by clinching his 14th crown against Michael van Gerwen, who bounced back to lift the trophy in 2014 with victory over Peter Wright. Mighty Mike was the hot bookies favourite to win again a year later but didn't even make the final as Gary Anderson held his nerve to sink Taylor 7-6 for his first world championship title before repeating the trick in 2016 when defeating Lewis.
Van Gerwen regained his status as world champion at the start of 2017 when defeating the Flying Scotsman but suffered one of the great all-time shocks in the follow year's semi-finals, at the hands of debutant Rob Cross.
Voltage went on to complete an incredible fairytale by defeating Phil Taylor in the Power's final match before retirement.
A popular market to bet on is whether there will be a nine-dart finish although the world championship had to wait until Raymond van Barneveld's effort in 2009 for its first. There have been eight since then, although four of those have been in vain during defeats, while Taylor has interestingly never hit one in this tournament.

This is an analysis of the variation in SNR, SFNR, and stability parameters across the individual coil elements in a phased array. A set of ${maxlocroisize}x${maxlocroisize}x1 voxels are positioned ${maxlocradfrac} of the distance from the phantom center to the edge along the direction of maximum sensitivity for the coil element. The average voxel values are plotted a function of coil element. The timecourses from each location are then crosscorrelated to assess common mode noise. Non-zero off-diagonal elements indicate correlation between channels, either due to geometric overlap or common mode system noise.

3-car crash in drive-thru
by Chelsea PowrieA few drivers may have been in too much of a McHurry for food at Penticton's McDonalds, ending up in a three-car crash.
Mid-morning Friday, some hungry travellers crashed into each other in the lineup for the drive-thru window.
Penticton deputy fire chief Chris Forster confirmed crews responded to the incident, saying three cars were involved in the rear-enders.
Nobody was hurt, and it is not known whether those drivers are still hungry.


I recently got started developing a cross-platform app in Flutter, a framework developed by Google that uses the Dart programming language. One major benefit of the fact that Flutter is created by Google is the mostly easy integration with Google’s other services. I have come across one minor exception to this rule in my attempt to integrate Firebase with my Flutter project, an error regarding .dex
file generation.
I followed along with Google’s guide on modifying my app’s Gradle configuration files to integrate Firebase services into the app. My Gradle config files after implementing the Google guide’s changes were as follows:
./android/
:
buildscript {
repositories {
google()
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.0'
}
}
allprojects {

jcenter()
}
}
rootProject.buildDir = '../build'
subprojects {
project.buildDir = "${rootProject.buildDir}/${project.name}"
}
subprojects {
project.evaluationDependsOn(':app')
}
task clean(type: Delete) {
delete rootProject.buildDir
}
./android/app/
:
def localProperties = new Properties()
def localPropertiesFile = rootProject.file('local.properties')
if (localPropertiesFile.exists()) {
localPropertiesFile.withReader('UTF-8') { reader ->
localProperties.load(reader)
}
}
def flutterRoot = localProperties.getProperty('flutter.sdk')
if (flutterRoot == null) {
throw new GradleException("Flutter SDK not found. Define location with flutter.sdk in the local.properties file.")
}
def flutterVersionCode = localProperties.getProperty('flutter.versionCode')
if (flutterVersionCode == null) {
flutterVersionCode = '1'
}

After I was done following the Google guide I was met with a build error that was not addressed in the Google guide. The addition of the google-services
package inflated the size of the built project to the point that it exceeded the number of methods allowed in a single .dex
file.
A .dex
file is similar to a .jar
file from typical Java development but is unique to the Android ecosystem. The .dex
file is used as an intermediary file in developing a .apk
file that will be loaded onto the Android device. I discovered through this error message that the default Gradle configuration generated with Flutter only uses one .dex
file to generate the .apk
file.
The solution I found to this error consisted of two changes: enabling a build flag regarding the .dex
generation and enabling resource shrinking. The default configuration that only allows for one .dex
file can be changed by setting the multiDexEnabled
to true
in the defaultConfig
section of the android

The first change alone will solve the build errors, but I was frustrated with the massive increase in size of my application when I was only using a small portion of the Firebase feature set. There are two additional flags available to reduce the size of the .dex
files and resulting .apk
file. The shrinkResources
flag removes unnecessary code that comes by default with the google-services
package and the minifyEnabled
just removes any dead code.
buildTypes {
release {
// TODO: Add your own signing config for the release build.
// Signing with the debug keys for now, so `flutter run --release` works.
signingConfig signingConfigs.debug
shrinkResources true
minifyEnabled true
}
}
The mix of these three flags reduced the size of my application and got it back to being able to compile.

310-year-old violin worth $320,000 returned to its owner
by AFPLONDON: A British musician who launched a public appeal after leaving his 310-year-old violin on a train was reunited with the undamaged instrument in a secretive meeting in a supermarket carpark.
Police told on Monday there would be no further action taken against the man who returned the violin, which is reportedly worth around £250,000 ($320,000).
“My violin is home safe and sound! Thanks for the overwhelming support,” the musician, Stephen Norris, tweeted at the weekend.
He had left the violin, which was made by Roman master craftsman David Tecchler in 1709, on a commuter train out of London on last Tuesday.
British Transport Police issued an image of the man believed to have taken it, and Morris received a message on social media from someone claiming to have information.
According to the BBC, the man called himself “Gene” and arranged to meet Morris in a supermarket car park on Friday evening, where he handed over the violin in a bag.
“He was very apologetic, he said he wanted to hand it to me in person,” the musician said, adding that the violin and bows were intact.
A British Transport Police spokesperson told AFP the violin had been returned, and said no further action was being taken against the man who had it.

Known as Brazil’s Cidade Maravilhosa (Marvelous City), Rio de Janeiro is blessed with endless miles of stunning beaches, lush green mountains and rainforests surrounding the city, tiny islands and picturesque lakes. Rio is also home to the favelas, or slum areas, the raw passion of samba and impromptu football games on Copacabana Beach. Visitors and locals vie for attention on Ipanema Beach, hike in the Tijuca rainforest, sail into Baia de Guanabara or hang-glide over the cliffs of the towering Corcovado Mountain.
Standing aloft this 700m peak is the massive statue of Cristo Redentor (Christ the Redeemer), blessing the city with his open arms and by far Rio’s most iconic symbol. From the top of Pao de Acucar, the best sunsets in the world can be seen. Use the cable cars to head to the 400 m summit for truly breathtaking views of the city, its blue bay dotted with sailing boats and the Corcovado Mountain in the distance. The only thing left of what were once endless miles of virginal Atlantic rainforest landscape is a 39 square kilometer tropical jungle park known as Parque Nacional da Tijuca. Trekking this park will take visitors to incredible waterfalls such as the Cascatinha de Taunay, as well as multiple caves and the 19th century Capela Mayrink chapel. Monkeys, birds and reptiles call the park home. Nature lovers can also head to Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas, an inner-city lake circled by biking and walking trails

BACKGROUND


Wolves official at Porto over the weekend, possible transfer plan at Nuno Espírito Santos’ old club
by Lucas SpositoA Wolverhampton Wanderers official visited the north of Portugal at the weekend, and watched Porto’s 4-0 win over Vitória de Setúbal on Sunday.
The scout’s presence at Estádio do Dragão is reported by newspaper Record, who doesn’t know a lot about the mission.
Wolves had previously been at a couple of Porto games this season, so it seems it’s a club they’ve been keeping an eye on. It’s worth recalling that Nuno Espírito Santo worked there before going to Molineux, and should keep good connections at the Dragons.
Porto had no difficulty winning the game, with goals scored by Mbemba, Fabio Silva and Moussa Marega, besides an own goal from Vitória defender Jubal. Midfielder Ivan Corona was man of the match.
One of these players has been linked to Wolves in the past, and that’s Marega. However, the Portuguese press has reported interest from half the Premier League in him, so it’s hard to believe the stories around the striker.
Premier League clubs Manchester United and Newcastle United also sent scouts for this match, along with Italian giants Milan.


The challenge is contained in a github repo here. To get started, just clone the repo and read the README.
(Note that this is a new software challenge for this term. If you've already completeted the old software challenge, we will accept that as well!)

Ghostbusters: Afterlife trailer resurrects the Ecto-1, sees the return of Slimer
I ain't afraid of no ghosts!
by Shawn KnightBlast from the past: Afterlife is being produced and directed by father / son duo Jason and Ivan Reitman. The elder Reitman is perhaps best known for producing the first two Ghostbusters films in 1984 and 1989, respectively. Members of the original cast including Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson are set to reprise their roles, we’re told. The film also stars Finn Wolfhard of Stranger Things fame as well as Carrie Coon and Paul Rudd.
Sony Pictures Entertainment on Monday published the first official trailer for Ghostbusters: Afterlife, the next film in the storied Ghostbusters franchise. A true sequel to the first flicks, this new movie (technically the fourth in the series) follows a family that relocates to a creepy old farm house left to them by a family member they don’t really know much about.
Turn out, that family member was original Ghostbuster Egon Spengler and his grandkids appear to be instrumental to the telling of this new movie which will of course involve the busting of some ghosts. And the resurrection of the Ectomobile. And the return of Slimer.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife is scheduled to haunt theaters in the summer of 2020.
Found is a TechSpot feature where we share clever, funny or otherwise interesting stuff from around the web.

WINGS OF DESIRE A film review by Jeff Meyer Copyright 1988 Jeff Meyer
See at the Seattle Film Festival: WINGS OF DESIRE (West Germany, 1987) Director: Wim Wenders Screenwriters: Wim Wenders and Peter Handke Cast: Bruno Ganz, Solveig Dommartin, Peter Falk, Otto Sander
I see a lot of films -- particularly at the Festival -- which try to induce a surrealistic, dream-like state upon the viewer. Very few of them come close to succeeding. WINGS OF DESIRE is 2 hours and 10 minutes long, and for 85% of that time its attempts to lull me into such a state were entirely engrossing and stimulating. This is a lyrical film: lyrical in its story, its photography, and in particular the original conception of its setting. Wenders portrays divine characters in a manner that is extremely innovative, at least to film, and when he lays out his world before us, divided into earthly and ethereal halves, it is a new world.
The film opens up with East and West Germany below us, in black and white. We see an angel (Ganz) looking down on the city; he has wings, but they disappear, and he floats through the city, intercepting the thoughts of people all over the city. Only an occasional rare child actually notices that he is there. The by-play of the voices and the "floating" camera is excellent; you let it wash over you, and it is quite an experience. Eventually, he meets and talks to another angel (Sander) about his experiences, and how he yearns to be human and sample what humans feel, in particular the actual progression of time, which immortals cannot feel. Angels all wear long coats, have pony tails, and while they cannot interfere in what happens, their presence (particularly their touch) can bring hope and health back to their spirits.
After this point, the film begins to rotate around three other characters. One, and old man, is observed by both Sander and Ganz; he is a survivor of the Holocaust, and is often thinking back on it, and what it means about humanity as a whole. The second is a circus aerialist (Dommartin), a sad, beautiful girl who loves her trapeze work but is lonely, and who Ganz falls in love with (she senses his presence somehow, though not explicitly). The final one is a kick: Peter Falk, playing Peter Falk (he's shooting a detective/WW II movie in Berlin).  It's a delightfully strange performance, and Falk gives Ganz the courage he needs for the final plunge: humanity.
The film ends concentrating on Ganz and Dommartin; both Falk and the old man are phased out (it's a bit annoying, but not very). It also gets a bit too longer here -- there's about twenty minutes here that could be trimmed without anything being hurt (the bar scene, for those of you who've seen it). But it's a wonderful love story, the kind of dreamy, philosophically-drenched romance I dote on, and it's one of the two best films I saw at this year's festival. Ganz is excellent; the man has the kind of gentle, old-wise-innocent face an angel would have; Dommartin is excellent at the subject of his love; Falk is the occasional kick-in-the-butt the film needs for plot advancement -- and besides, he's damn fun to watch.
I should point out, though, that you shouldn't expect to be seeing a "romance" or a "comedy" or anything of that sort. I'd put it down as more of a surreal experience, very pleasant and not at all disorienting, combined with romantic and philosophical elements. If that sounds at all appealing (for a little over two hours), I strongly suspect you won't want to miss the film. Technically, the film is marvelous; why I don't understand all of the changes from B&W to color and back, they fit in with the feel of WINGS OF DESIRE. The script is very good; Wenders' and Handke's ideas for what angels talk about (and listen to) is delightful (Stanley Kauffmann of THE NEW REPUBLIC said this is one of the few scripts he'd almost prefer reading than watching). Overall, it could use a little more editing at the end; but a success all around, I think.
Rating: Not for everyone, but if the synopsis above sounds appealing , you definitely should not miss it.
