Home Capital shares complete comeback from 2017 crisis
by Doug AlexanderIt took two years, but Home Capital Group Inc. shares have regained ground lost since the Canadian alternative mortgage lender almost collapsed in 2017.
Home Capital shares have almost doubled this year and are the sixth-best performing stock on Canada’s benchmark S&P/TSX Composite Index. The Toronto-based lender traded at $28.86 at 1:26 p.m. on the Toronto Stock Exchange, and has been hovering at levels last seen in February 2017, before the stock plunged as Ontario’s securities regulator accused the company of misleading shareholders over falsified mortgage applications.
Alternative lenders including Home Capital and Equitable Group Inc. have seen their stocks surge this year as the pace of mortgage growth picked up during the spring home-buying season, and home sales recovered in major cities including Toronto and Vancouver.
MARKET CALL: HOME CAPITAL (HCG:CT)
- Michael Sprung discusses Home Capital Group
- David Baskin discusses Home Capital Group
- Javed Mirza's Top Picks
The “significant” share price appreciation of the alternative lenders is reflective of improving housing conditions -- particularly in Greater Toronto -- as well as a benign credit environment and robust mortgage growth outlook, CIBC analyst Marco Giurleo said in a Nov. 1 note to clients. He upgraded Home Capital to “outperformer” based on the company’s “path to double-digit profitability”, a strong mortgage growth outlook and attractive valuation.
Home Capital’s stock went into a free-fall in the weeks after the regulator’s allegations, fueled by short-selling and a run on deposits. Shares sunk to as low as $5.85 in May that year, before Warren Buffett stepped in to buy a 38 per cent stake in Home Capital and backstopped the lender with a $2 billion (US$1.5 billion) credit line through Berkshire Hathaway Inc. Berkshire has since cashed in as the stock has recovered.
Home Capital is scheduled to release third-quarter earnings results on Nov. 13, with analysts expecting the company to post adjusted earnings of 58 cents a share.
While Home Capital’s shares have recovered, the lender’s assets and mortgage book haven’t quite reached their pre-crisis levels. The company had $18.5 billion of assets at the end of the second quarter, down from a peak of $21 billion at the beginning of 2017, while single-family residential mortgages were $10.9 billion compared with about $11.3 billion two years earlier.

OCI REST for ESP32
|
The purpose of this library is to let you invoke Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) REST APIs directly from your device.
You should be familiar with the OCI REST APIs:
You should have already created the required keys and collected the necessary OCIDs. See Required Keys and OCIDs.
This library exists to make it easier to make calls to the OCI APIs from your microcontroller. The request signature process is somewhat complex, and it can be tricky to sign an HTTPS request from a memory constrained device. I created this library to simplify the process.
Please note! This library has only been successfully tested on an ESP-32. It has not been tested on any other board, and probably won't work on any other board due to memory constraints and dependent libraries.
The latest documentation always lives at: https://recursivecodes.github.io/oci_rest_api_esp32/html/index.html
Declare some variables to hold your keys and OCIDs. Keep this out of source control!
Pass in your tenancyOcid
, userOcid
, keyFingerprint
, apiKey
. If your private key is password protected, pass the password in as the 5th argument.
Construct an instance of the Oci
class, passing in your profile. This will initialize the API class and configure the NTP server needed to obtain a timestamp to include with each request.
Construct a request object. Pass in the REST endpoint host, the path, HTTP method as the first 3 arguments.
The example above makes a secure request because a copy of the endpoint's Root CA Cert is passed in as the final argument. You can get a copy of the Root CA Cert many ways. Here's an example using openssl
on *nix compatible systems:
If you want to make the request insecure (the Root CA Cert will not be validated), pass NULL
in instead of the cert.
If you want/need to add request headers to the API call, construct and pass an array of Header
structs in argument 4 and the length of that array in argument 5.
Construct a response object. This will ultimately hold the results (or any errors) of your API call.
If you want/need to retrieve any headers from the API response, construct and add an array of Header
structs. Just add the name of the header to retrieve, the value will be populated when the API call is complete.
Call the apiCall()
method of Oci
, passing the request and response objects.
If successful, the statusCode
property of the response object will be populated with 200
. You can then print/handle the result as needed. In this example, I'm deserializing the JSON string into an object.
The previous example might produce output such as this:

I was lucky enough to get tickets to Friday's game. As soon as they announced Javier Baez was getting called up, I immediately looked for tickets. I ended up settling for 500 level tickets. When I got to Wrigleyville, there was just a different vibe around the park, one I had not felt in sometime. I cashed in my 500 level tickets for some bleacher seats and got in as soon as batting practice started.
With my First Night Game Rick Sutcliffe bobble-head in hand, my buddy and I found our way out to the left field seats. As perfect as the timing was, Baez was taking batting practice. He, in a group with Arismendy Alcantara, Starlin Castro, and Luis Valbuena, was peppering the bleacher seats. One of his moon shots actually hit a light post that is over the bleachers, probably 10 feet over the top row.
Before the game started, the loudest ovation during the lineups was, you guessed it, Javier Baez, playing second and batting second. He got more applause than All Stars Anthony Rizzo and Castro behind him. As he stepped up to the plate in his first at bat, the crowd was electric. Here is a vine I took when he stepped up to the plate for his first Wrigley at bat.
Javy time. https://t.co/hfKBBfECPr
— Luke Jett (@LukeJett) August 8, 2014
Pretty crazy huh? The place went nuts. When Baez broke hit bat and deposited the ball into left field for a single, the crowd gave him a standing ovation.
Every time the second baseman came to the plate, he got a standing ovation. With every violent swing, the crowd gasps while waiting for him to make contact so they can see how far he can hit it. Unfortunately, after his first at bat, he went 0-4 with 4 strikeouts. Obviously, we all know strikeouts are part of Javy's game.
The thing I took away from this game was the excitement for the future. Scattered across Wrigley were Baez #9 shirt jersey and actual jerseys. I couldn't go into a store in or around the park without seeing a Baez jersey, front and center, ready to be sold.
Being active on Twitter, I knew the excitement around Javier Baez, but it was awesome to feel the vibe around the park yesterday. Everyone knows what is coming in the next few years, and this is just the start of something great.


Folktale uses a mix of property-based and unit tests. Read this to understand how to add new tests, or update existing ones.
Folktale uses a mix of property-based and unit tests. Read this to understand how to add new tests, or update existing ones.
Folktale uses Mocha and JSVerify for tests. Property-based tests are preferable, but sometimes example-based tests make more sense, Amanda Laucher and Paul Snively have a very good talk about when to use Property-based tests and when to use example-based tests, which you can use as a basis to make this decision.
Tests go in the proper <category>.<subcategory>.js
file in the test/specs-src/
folder
for the category of the functionality you're writing tests for. For example,
tests for the compose
function of core/lambda
would go in the
test/specs-src/core.lambda.js
file. If the file already exists, you only need to add a new
test definition to it. Otherwise, you'll need to create a new file.
Here's an example of how one would write tests for the compose
function, in a
core.lambda.js
file:
// Import the jsverify library. This will be used to define the tests
const { property } = require('jsverify');
// Import the category we're testing (core.lambda). By convention, the
// variable `_` is used to hold this object, since it has less visual
// clutter.
const _ = require('folktale').core.lambda;
// Define the test case. Mocha adds the `describe` function to define
// a test suite. You should create a suite for the category, and a
// suite for the function being tested inside of that:
describe('Core.Lambda', () => {
describe('compose', () => {
// Finally, we define our test, using JSVerify's `property`
property('Associativity', 'nat', (a) => {
const f = (x) => x - 1;
const g = (x) => x * 2;
const h = (x) => x / 3;
return _.compose(f, _.compose(g, h))(a)
=== _.compose(_.compose(f, g), h)(a)
})
})
})
With property based tests, JSVerify generates random data of the type described in the property and feeds it into the function. When an error occurs, it tries to find the smallest value that still reproduces the error and reports that to you, so you can try to debug it.
Sometimes it makes more sense to write an example-based test than a
property-based one. For these, instead of the property
function from JSVerify,
test cases are defined with the it
function from Mocha, and assertions use
Node's native assert
module:
const assert = require('assert');
const _ = require('folktale').core.lambda;
describe('Core.Lambda', _ => {
describe('compose', _ => {
it('Invokes functions from right to left', _ => {
const f = (x) => x - 1;
const g = (x) => x * 2;
assert.equal(_.compose(f, g)(2), 3);
})
})
})
To run tests, you can use make test
from the root of the project.

Saskatoon fire department reflects growing need for medical care
by Phil Tank, Saskatoon StarPhoenixMore than 40 per cent of calls for emergency medical service, prompting more trained paramedics
More than 40 per cent of the thousands of calls received by the Saskatoon fire department so far this year have required some sort of emergency medical care.
That statistic is reflected in a change in the fire department’s focus to include a higher level of medical training for many of its responders.
The fire department introduced emergency medical technicians in 1990, but now boasts more than 140 primary care paramedics among its 334 staff. That’s also just slightly more than 40 per cent.
“Those are quite significant for us,” battalion chief Len Protz told reporters on Thursday at the fire hall on Idylwyld Drive.
The fire department staged a demonstration for news media to show how a fire crew would respond to a skateboarder with a painful leg injury.
Firefighter Marc Zimmer portrayed the injured skateboarder; Carter Tomyn, Steve Killick and Barret Husulak showed how a crew responds to such an incident.
Specifically, the fire crew showed how Penthrox, a non-opioid painkiller that is inhaled, can be used to relieve pain in an instance like the injured skateboarder, whose leg had to be placed in a splint.
Calls to the fire department have topped 14,000 so far this year; they reached that level in the entire calendar years of 2018 and 2017.
Of this year’s calls, 5,821 were classified as emergency medical service calls. Medical calls topped 6,000 last year.
Nearly two years ago, the fire department made the transition from emergency medical technicians to primary care paramedics. In January 2017, fire crews were trained to administer Naloxone, the drug used in opioid overdoses.
Protz said fire staff respond to every call with a staff of four to five, including a paramedic. The fire department dispatches a full truck to every call, even if it’s to help assist a senior who has fallen.
Many of the “hot zone” situations at which fire crews arrive, such as fires or vehicle crashes, can require medical care, Protz added.
An agreement between the fire department and the Saskatchewan Health Authority determines which calls the fire department attends and which require an ambulance and a trip to hospital.
“Anything that’s quite significant in nature, we would assist the ambulance,” Protz said.


Introduction
Every city is, among other things, a rich repository of stories. The Aleppo Memory Map attempts to capture some of Aleppo's stories, allowing listeners to explore what the city means to those who know it best. Click on a marker, and a short audio file pops up: a memory of summers spent playing with cousins, or of poetry readings at a neighborhood church. The map contains no images, attempting instead to paint a verbal portrait of the city as seen through the eyes of its citizens. In doing so, it aims to capture some of the pride and affection that Aleppans feel for their city.
Those of us who know Aleppo only through casualty lists and the grim litany of bombings will discover glimpses of a very different city: memories of teenage flirtations, of a favorite bookstore, of playing chess at a cafe outside the Citadel. Those who know Aleppo well may find reminders of the places they love -- or stumble upon totally unfamiliar corners of the city. So whether you come to the map as a stranger to Aleppo or as a native, take some time to listen to its stories. They provide a rich and personal set of views of the city -- a way of remembering what Aleppo was like in the years before the war.
Interviewees
The map is grounded in the memories of Ahmad Beetar (left) and Rim Mghir (right).
Ahmad grew up in Aleppo in the 1980s and 1990s, attending school and building a career as a journalist. He is the founder of Eye on Aleppo, a website that promotes cultural and artistic events in Aleppo. He left Syria in 2012 after receiving threats from both the regime and rebel forces. He now lives in Washington, DC, where he works as a freelance translator; most of his family remains in Aleppo. The memories he contributed to the map include stories of his childhood home, the Red Crescent, the Nablus Girls' School, the Citadel, and the St. Terez Church.
Rim grew up in Idlib in the 1960s and 1970s. Every summer, she and her cousins would visit their grandparents in Aleppo -- where, she claims, they were "the naughtiest kids in the neighborhood!" She later moved to Aleppo herself to attend medical school at the University of Aleppo, where she specialized in psychiatry. Rim left Syria after graduation to do her residency in the US, and has lived in the Washington, DC area ever since. She visited Aleppo frequently during the 1990s and 2000s, until the current conflict made such visits impossible. The memories Rim contributed to the map include stories of her grandmother's home, the medical school, the Tawleed hospital for women, her aunt's medical clinic on al-Tillal street, her favorite spots in al-Azizieh neighborhood, and the souks of the old city.
On the map, green markers denote Rim's memories and blue markers denote Ahmad's memories
The Memory Map
To see a larger version of the map in a separate tab, click here.The Memories
The memories embedded in the Aleppo Memory Map are the product of several hours of conversation with Rim and Ahmad. Both were asked to prepare by selecting 4-6 sites meaningful to them; in the interviews, each marked their sites on the map and spoke about each site for as long as they wished. These stories have been edited for clarity and concision in order to produce the final map. The goal was to pare each story down to its essential core -- ideally less than three minutes in length -- so that visitors to the map can easily listen to multiple memories in one sitting.
Central to this editing process was an attempt to retain the sound of Rim and Ahmad's natural speech -- so you'll hear plenty of pauses, stammers, and unfinished sentences. In many cases, these verbal tics are central to the emotional heft of the speaker's words. Rim's memory of her grandmother's house, for instance, would not be nearly as compelling without her laughter; Ahmad's memory of the Citadel wouldn't be as powerful without his hesitant groping for words. By relying on the actual audio -- rather than written transcripts -- the Memory Map makes these emotional responses more vividly available to its audience.
Future Directions
The map as it currently exists is a pilot project, one that's expected to evolve and develop. Collecting and adding more memories would be an obvious next step. In particular, adding memories narrated in Arabic -- and perhaps other languages of Syria -- would make the project more accessible to both listeners and to potential contributors. A future version of the map might even incorporate a sorting functionality, so that viewers would be able to display only stories narrated in languages they speak.
Another possible direction would be to rework the map to reflect particular individuals' mental maps of Aleppo. The current map is static; though viewers can zoom in and out and examine different areas, the map itself does not change. But what if, when you began to listen to the audio, the map itself shifted to reflect the speaker's view of the city? Perhaps some parts of the city would go dark, while others would be illuminated. Or perhaps some parts of the city would shrink, while others would expand. Regardless of how, exactly, the change was visually represented, the point would be to map the city as it looks from the speaker's perspective. Reworking the project in this vein would further emphasize the subjective character of the map, matching the aural experience of listening to the memories with a similarly subjective visual experience.

If you can answer "yes" to any one of questions, then you are not on a date. Sorry to break your heart like that. 💔
Also, if you just so happen to be at Taco Bell, you need to ask yourself what it is you are doing with your life by attempting to have a date at Taco Bell. 🤔
We were unable to access your current location, either because it's not supported on your device or you denied access. We are unable to assess your date status without it.

What Riches Were Meant to Do
Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
Ephesians 4:28
It always amazes me when I preach about prosperity and someone comes up to me and says, "I don't need much prosperity.  So I just ask God for enough to meet my needs."
They think that's humility, but it's not. It's selfishness! They don't realize it, but they're actually saying, "All I care about is meeting my own needs. I have no ambition to help meet anyone else's."
They could ask God for a million dollars, take out just enough to meet their needs, and give the rest away. But that doesn't even occur to them because when it comes to money, they've been brainwashed by a world that says if you have it, you've got to keep it.
That philosophy has hindered the ministry of Jesus Christ on the earth today. It has caused preachers to set aside their calling and get secular jobs just to survive. It's handicapped churches and stunted the growth of ministries that could have reached thousands more for the Lord.
It takes money to preach the gospel. Jesus Himself knew that, and contrary to what some people think, His ministry was not a poor one. He had so much money coming in and going out through His ministry that He had to appoint a treasurer. His name was Judas.
But Jesus didn't store up thatmoney forHimself. He gave it to meet the needs of those around Him. He had such a reputation for giving that on the night of that last Passover when Judas left so abruptly, the disciples assumed that Jesus had sent him out to give to the poor.
Can you imagine how much and how often Jesus must have given to the poor for the disciples to make that assumption?
Jesus never built a worldly empire for Himself. But that doesn't mean He was poor. It means He was the greatest giver who ever walked the face of this earth, and it's time we started following in His footsteps.
Don't turn down the wealth God wants to give you just because you don't "need" it. Dare to accept it, then pass it along to those who do. Stop working for a living andstartworking for a "giving." Discover for yourself what riches were really meant to do.
Scripture Reading: Luke 12:15-31


PyTorch documentation¶
PyTorch is an optimized tensor library for deep learning using GPUs and CPUs.
Features described in this documentation are classified by release status:
Stable: These features will be maintained long-term and there should generally be no major performance limitations or gaps in documentation. We also expect to maintain backwards compatibility (although breaking changes can happen and notice will be given one release ahead of time).
Beta: These features are tagged as Beta because the API may change based on user feedback, because the performance needs to improve, or because coverage across operators is not yet complete. For Beta features, we are committing to seeing the feature through to the Stable classification. We are not, however, committing to backwards compatibility.
Prototype: These features are typically not available as part of binary distributions like PyPI or Conda, except sometimes behind run-time flags, and are at an early stage for feedback and testing.

Daily Mindfulness
What Did I Learn from my Mindfulness Conversation?
I have been thinking a bit about mindful converstaions. I haven't engaged in a formal conversation, but I am doing some mindful listening to people in my everyday life. I work at a cafe, so it is really essential that I can listen properly and take down people's orders.
I think it's useful to be mindful in this context, beause getting the order right the first time is essential in maintaining the work flow of the coffee, food and till. I am trying to be mindful in listening to the customers, and just by trying to be mindful, I find I can make people's experience slightly better.
My Everyday Mindfulness
As outlined in chapter 3 of Search Inside Yourself, I've been doing a few mindful activities. I've been doing some mindful walking, when I'm just walking somewhere by myself, I like to think about each step connecting my foot to the ground, how my lungs are feeling etc.
At the gym as well, I've sometimes been doing a bit of mindful warmup. I'll jog for about 8 minutes on the treadmill, and really listen to how my body is feeling, how my heart starts pumping faster, and my breathing starts to get heavier. All of this mindfulness is slowly becoming more prominent, but I still feel like I have a way to go before I get any sort of tangible benefit.

Mario once told me that Lean's parser was an Operator-precedence parser. The manual tells me it's a Pratt-style parser. Is it a top down parser? Furthermore, will the Lean 4 Parser be all of these things, or is this not yet known? I have some very primitive notes on parsers but they are so full of questions that I thought I'd better answer some of them before I started making it public.
For notation parsing, the new parser will be all of these things as well. The title of Pratt's original paper is "Top down operator precedence".
Any chance that the new parser will have a literate mode like in Haskell?
my understanding is the parser will be completely extendable in lean, which means a user could implement their own literate mode if they wanted. am i wrong?
about a year ago i looked into extending asciidoc with lean support in vscode, i really wanted inline TeX rendering and lean code cells in the same document
but apparently i didn't want it badly enough to finish it :)
That would be one way to do it. I would still prefer native support so that everything can be treated as snippets but, more importantly, so that you can have a mean to weaken the strict declaration order. For example, I would like to see something like this:
<<aux-decl>> > def my_fun := -- uses aux declaration Here I explain my_fun. And now I explain how I construct everything in <<<aux-decl>>> that I haven't shown yet: <<begin aux-decl>> > def my_fun_aux1 := -- some of the magic Explain, explain, now one more decl: > def my_fun_aux2 := -- the rest of the magic Tada! <<end aux-decl>>
that's... a lot of lookahead
For not much gain IMHO :).
@Moses Schönfinkel I disagree. This will help write live documentation. What is worse than no documentation is having documentation that is wrong. I want to write documentation and have it part of the test suites so that we're forced to upgrade it as we move forward with the development
But maybe what you mean is that breaking the flow is not worth all that. Again, I disagree. When you write a tutorial, you have to adapt your narrative to follow a realistic sequence of inventions. Often, the first code I write ends up at the end of a file. I think that's the best code to start an explanation with because it justifies all the other inventions in the file
Let's face it, if Lean or Mathlib were written in this way then it would be a darn sight easier to learn.
@Andrew Ashworth It is a lot of look ahead but this is not C. When C was invented, they had to arrange the syntax so that they would store as little of a program's syntax tree in memory at any time which is why you need a function's declaration before its definition if you want to call it before it's declared. In our situation, the main reason for forcing the order of declaration is to force a topological order in the between the proofs that refer to each other. I'm not sure if Lean keeps a file's whole syntax tree in memory at any one time but it doesn't strike me as the main design criterion
yes, but i feel like one of the main design criterions is to make lean performant
i only made that observation because I doubt Leo will get on board with having that be part of core lean since it slows down parsing and compilation, when the process is already fairly slow
you can always port cweave and ctangle to lean :) if it was good enough for knuth, it might be good enough for simon, haha
I think the question is: is this the slow part of the process?
What if Simon is more demanding? :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
The other benefit of having it in Lean itself is that you could benefit from the Lean server while writing Lean documentation
I think the question is: is this the slow part of the process?
as a mere user, i have no idea, but i'm always interested in being educated
On performance again: if it can be disabled for most files it shouldn't slow anything down
I have no idea either. I was hoping to get enlightened
Perhaps a compromise. Pull the C trick - have a prototype to have the declaration beforehand and then put the proof + explanation + documentation wherever you want?
I feel like I shouldn't like your idea but I really do
It could be something like:
forward my_fun_aux1, my_fun_aux2
where the order matters
exactly
This is really cool actually :) and can be completely separate from any literate mode
Now I'm wondering how that should interact with other features:
forward something.my_fun_aux def my_fun := my_fun_aux foo namespace something variable x : int def my_fun_aux := x + 3 end something
Damn I really want to do this now ^^.
Maybe I should work in advertisement :P

Run dbHelper tests
Two things to note:
- These tests require a TripSections.db file in "www" directory. Since it
looks like there are subtle differences between android and ios, there are
actually two files checked in, one for android and one for iOS. Each of these
needs to be copied in turn, and the tests run against both platforms.
-
Note that these tests will fail there is an existing
TripSection.db that does not contain currTrips in the app's database
directory. Such a database can be created if any other code tries
to open the database without the right parameters. If tests are
failing, that is the first place to look. It is best to run the
tests after having wiped the database to be on the safe side.

BODY COUNT (1997) A film review by Justin Felix. Copyright 1999 Justin Felix. Any comments about this review? Contact me at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>All of my film reviews are archived at http://us.imdb.com/M/reviews_by?Justin+Felix
Rating: * (out of five)
Written by David Diamond and Richard Shepard. Directed by Kurt Voss. Starring Alyssa Milano and Ice-T. Rated R (contains violence, profanity, and sexuality) 88 mins.
 Susanne and Daniel must then decide where to hide from evil art thieves who shoot everyone else in the mansion to steal paintings. Brace yourself for one of those painfully obvious "surprise endings."
Comments: Thanksgiving. For most, it's a time to be with your loved ones and enjoy a good, home-cooked meal. For the makers of BODY COUNT, however, Thanksgiving is a time for multiple murders, violence, profanity, family dysfunction, and sex. Boy, do I feel all the more better having sat through this crap.
Alyssa Milano, the former child star of WHO'S THE BOSS?, matures to made-for-video sludge like this movie. Someone somewhere thought it'd be a great idea to pair her with rapper Ice-T, who has since guest-starred in the made-for-the-Sci-Fi-Channel series WELCOME TO PARADOX. This isn't exactly a winning combination.
Outside of permanently ruining a holiday for me, what else may be said for this turkey?  It presents us with a heartwarming Thanksgiving dinner attended by alcoholic, stuck-up rich white people waited on by black servants. It shows us that old guys, try not to laugh, sit around and talk about "the appeal of postmodernism" during their free time.
Before I go any further, if any young male reading this has hopes of seeing Alyssa naked, forget it. The filmmakers cleverly shoot the simulated sex scenes in a manner that makes sure you don't see any of Milano's attributes. They do, however, inexplicably throw in a scene where Ice-T whistles "Jingle Bells" after killing people, for whatever that's worth.
This film was originally titled BELOW UTOPIA. Perhaps they should have renamed it HELL. Avoid this clunker.

The C subroutine library depends on a handful of subroutine calls for operating system services. If you use the C library on a system that complies with the POSIX.1 standard (also known as IEEE 1003.1), most of these subroutines are supplied with your operating system.
If some of these subroutines are not provided with your system—in
the extreme case, if you are developing software for a “bare board”
system, without an OS—you will at least need to provide do-nothing
stubs (or subroutines with minimal functionality) to allow your
programs to link with the subroutines in libc.a
.


acepack: ACE and AVAS for Selecting Multiple Regression Transformations
Two nonparametric methods for multiple regression transform selection are provided.
The first, Alternative Conditional Expectations (ACE),
is an algorithm to find the fixed point of maximal
correlation, i.e. it finds a set of transformed response variables that maximizes R^2
using smoothing functions [see Breiman, L., and J.H. Friedman. 1985. "Estimating Optimal Transformations
for Multiple Regression and Correlation". Journal of the American Statistical Association.
80:580-598. <doi:10.1080/01621459.1985.10478157>].
Also included is the Additivity Variance Stabilization (AVAS) method which works better than ACE when
correlation is low [see Tibshirani, R.. 1986. "Estimating Transformations for Regression via Additivity
and Variance Stabilization". Journal of the American Statistical Association. 83:394-405.
<doi:10.1080/01621459.1988.10478610>]. A good introduction to these two methods is in chapter 16 of
Frank Harrel's "Regression Modeling Strategies" in the Springer Series in Statistics.

In this step, we will implement the phone details view, which is displayed when a user clicks on a phone in the phone list.
To implement the phone details view we are going to use $http to fetch our data,
and then flesh out the phoneDetail
component's template.
In addition to phones.json
, the app/phones/
directory also contains one JSON file for each
phone:
app/phones/nexus-s.json
: (sample snippet)
{
"additionalFeatures": "Contour Display, Near Field Communications (NFC), ...",
"android": {
"os": "Android 2.3",
"ui": "Android"
},
...
"images": [
"img/phones/nexus-s.0.jpg",
"img/phones/nexus-s.1.jpg",
"img/phones/nexus-s.2.jpg",
"img/phones/nexus-s.3.jpg"
],
"storage": {
"flash": "16384MB",
"ram": "512MB"
}
}
Each of these files describes various properties of the phone using the same data structure. We will show this data in the phone details view.
We will expand the phoneDetail
component's controller by using the $http
service to fetch the
appropriate JSON files. This works the same way as the phoneList
component's controller.
app/phone-detail/phone-detail.component.js
:
angular.
module('phoneDetail').
component('phoneDetail', {
templateUrl: 'phone-detail/phone-detail.template.html',
controller: ['$http', '$routeParams',
function PhoneDetailController($http, $routeParams) {
var self = this;
$http.get('phones/' + $routeParams.phoneId + '.json').then(function(response) {
self.phone = response.data;
});
}
]
});
To construct the URL for the HTTP request, we use $routeParams.phoneId
, which is extracted from
the current route by the $route
service.
The inline, TBD placeholder template has been replaced with a full blown external template,
including lists and bindings that comprise the phone details. Note how we use the AngularJS
{{expression}}
markup and ngRepeat
to project phone data from our model into the view.
app/phone-detail/phone-detail.template.html
:

{{$ctrl.phone.name}}

{{$ctrl.phone.description}}

Availability and Networks

Availability

{{availability}}

...

Additional Features

{{$ctrl.phone.additionalFeatures}}

We wrote a new unit test that is similar to the one we wrote for the phoneList
component's
controller in step 7.
app/phone-detail/phone-detail.component.spec.js
:
describe('phoneDetail', function() {
// Load the module that contains the `phoneDetail` component before each test
beforeEach(module('phoneDetail'));
// Test the controller
describe('PhoneDetailController', function() {
var $httpBackend, ctrl;
beforeEach(inject(function($componentController, _$httpBackend_, $routeParams) {
$httpBackend = _$httpBackend_;
$httpBackend.expectGET('phones/xyz.json').respond({name: 'phone xyz'});
$routeParams.phoneId = 'xyz';
ctrl = $componentController('phoneDetail');
}));
it('should fetch the phone details', function() {
expect(ctrl.phone).toBeUndefined();
$httpBackend.flush();
expect(ctrl.phone).toEqual({name: 'phone xyz'});
});
});
});
You should now see the following output in the Karma tab:
Chrome 49.0: Executed 3 of 3 SUCCESS (0.159 secs / 0.136 secs)
We also added a new E2E test that navigates to the 'Nexus S' details page and verifies that the heading on the page is "Nexus S".
e2e-tests/scenarios.js
...
describe('View: Phone detail', function() {
beforeEach(function() {
browser.get('index.html#!/phones/nexus-s');
});
it('should display the `nexus-s` page', function() {
expect(element(by.binding('$ctrl.phone.name')).getText()).toBe('Nexus S');
});
});
...
You can run the tests with npm run protractor
.
Now that the phone details view is in place, proceed to step 11 to learn how to write your own custom display filter.

Our source repositories are available on GitHub:
This is the main server and UI for Kibble. It consists of four parts parts: - A database (ElasticSearch) - An OpenAPI-driven WSGI interface for displaying pages and operating the JSON API (as well as printing the API docs). - A user interface for managing the database, user accounts and requesting visualizations - A visualization library for displaying all the various charts.
Everything backend in Kibble is using Python 3. Everything frontend is using CoffeeScript transpiled to JavaScript.
The kibble-scanners repo contains the scanning applications that gather data for the main server. They are essentially tiny plugins managed by a main application (kibble-scanner.py) and gather what they figure they can find about a data source. They connect to the master server, fetch a list of data sources to analyse, and then each plugin decides whether it wants to work with that source, sorted by a run-order (so that fetching a git repo happens before analysing it etc). They then collect and formalize data objects, which can be an email, a commit, a person, an issue etc, and pass all that back to the main server's database.
This is our project web site. It uses the generate.py in the src folder to generate html from the markdown source. see BUILDING.txt there.
Nothing available yet, sorry!

KILLER THAT STALKED NEW YORK, THE (director: Earl McEvoy; screenwriters: Harry Essex/from a Cosmopolitan magazine article "Smallpox: The Killer That Stalked New York" by Milton Lehman; cinematographer: Joseph Biroc; cast: Evelyn Keyes (Sheila Bennet), William Bishop (Dr. Ben Wood), Charles Korvin (Matt Krane), Lola Albright (Francie Bennet), Jim Backus (Willie), Barry Kelley (Johnson,T-Agent), Whit Bissell (Sid Bennet), Ludwig Donath (Dr. Cooper), Roy Roberts (Mayor), Art Smith (Moss, Fence), Walter Burke (Brainy Danny, Bellhop), Beverly Washburn (Welda Kowalski), Celia Lovsky (Kowalski), Peter Virgo (Joe Dominic, Milkman), Harry Shannon (Officer Houlihan), Carl Benton Reid (Commissioner Ellis), 1950)
Review by Dennis Schwartz
There's not much in the way of thrills or surprises in this minor noir film, one that is able to combine a story about diamond smugglers and a smallpox outbreak in the New York City of 1947. It is based on the real threat of a smallpox epidemic for New York City that took place in 1946. The thin story is taken from a Cosmopolitan magazine article by Milton Lehman. It is mildly diverting because of its able depiction of America's cold war paranoia during the early 1950s against anything foreign, as the film shows how an entire city can become terror stricken by something unknown attacking it.
Upon entering New York City's Pennsylvania Station from Cuba, Sheila Bennet (Keyes) senses she is being followed by custom's police. The former singer has teamed up with her good-for-nothing husband, a piano player, Matt Krane (Korvin), to smuggle $50,000 worth of diamonds into the country. To make sure that you know that he is the heavy in the story, he will speak with a foreign accent. Everything foreign in this film is either connected with something sick or with something dangerous to America.
Not going straight home to her husband, whom she calls at the station, but instead going to a hotel on her husband's suggestion, she finds herself feeling ill and anxious to rest up at home. He is two-timing her with her own sister, Francie (Lola), who is seen by the viewer in the apartment when she calls. Sheila excitedly tells him that she mailed the diamonds to him because the cop was following her and will try to lose the tail following her before coming home.
She is able to give the T-agent (Kelley) the slip by having the bellhop (Burke) show her the back way out. Feeling sick, she nearly faints on the street, as a cop takes her to a local clinic. There, she comes into contact with a sweet young girl (Washburn) who is being taken to the hospital for whooping cough. She feels very maternal to her, giving the little girl a pin ornament she was wearing that caught the girl's eye.
Dr. Ben Wood treats her for a cold, giving her a medicine and telling her to go home and get some rest. Later, when he checks on the little girl admitted to the hospital, he is startled to find that she has come down with an illness that has been eradicated from most of the world since the Middle Ages, smallpox.
Meanwhile, after returning home and feeling sick, Sheila becomes aware that Matt has left both her and her sister, but he can't leave town completely because he has to wait ten days before his fence (Smith) will pay him off. He is told the diamonds are too hot to handle.
The city is thrown into a panic, as a few cases of smallpox develop. The city decides to vaccinate everyone, but runs out of the serum, causing a panic in the city. Coming into contact with Sheila and taking sick with smallpox: are the train porter, Sheila's milk deliveryman, and her nightclub boss Willie (Backus). The T-agent and Dr. Wood, who is in charge of finding the smallpox carrier, realize that they are looking for the same person and through a lead from Willie, trace her to her brother's flophouse in the Bowery. But she escapes from them there and goes to Dr. Wood's office requesting more of the medicine he gave her. When he wants her to turn herself in, she shoots him in the shoulder and escapes.
Sheila manages to stay alive because she has to kill Matt and settle the score she has with him. This, supposedly, keeps her going, while the one's she gave the disease to are dropping like flies, including the little girl.
In the final scene, she waits for Matt in the fence's place and forces him out on the ledge of the high-rise office building, where he looses his balance and falls to the pavement. This seems to exact the same punishment for him that he exacted from Francie, who committed suicide when he left her and her sister confronted her that she knew about the affair with her husband. Dr. Wood, who seems to be omniscient, appears on the ledge to rescue Sheila and he gets all the information he needs on how and where she got the disease and all the people she was in contact with, before she dies.
The action part of the melodramatic story was weakly told, while the noir characterizations of Sheila did capture the desperate feelings of the subject, but it was not enough to overcome the overall inability of the story to have a heart to it. The city officials and Dr. Wood running around the city to stem the epidemic, seemed hard to fathom. The mechanical acting by everyone, except for Keyes, and the unconvincing action scenes made the film appear as the B film it was, despite the great noir camerawork of Joseph Biroc, who caught how dark the city could be for someone on-the-run.
