Motorola’s Razr includes a cool nostalgic secret keyboard
The Retro Razr mode is accessible via a quick settings toggle
by Dean DaleyMotorola recently revealed its new Razr foldable display smartphone. As expected, this reinvigorated classic brings with it a heavy nostalgia.
But to bring back even more sweet memories, Motorola has added a secret ‘Retro Razr’ mode to the smartphone.
Razr users can switch on the mode via the quick settings menu with a toggle. Turning it on transforms the user interface into the layout from the Razr phone of yesteryear, including even the iconic keypad.
Not only does it look cool, but it works. You can make calls and send texts with the keypad and the direction button. Motorola even restricted the touchscreen so you can only tap on the keypad and the other fake buttons.
This is pretty interesting Easter Egg from Motorola, but unfortunately, you’ll need to pay $1500 USD ($1988 CAD) to see it first hand.
The Razr phone is coming to Canada in early 2020, according to Motorola.

All?
Returns true if everything in the block returns true.
["cat","bat","mat"].all?{|word| word.length == 3} #returns true
["cat","bat","hats"].all?{|word| word.length == 3} #returns false
Any?
Returns true if anything in the block returns true.
["cat","bat","mat","zipper"].any?{|word| word.length == 6} #returns true
["cat","bat","hats"].any?{|word| word.length == 6} #returns false
Collect / Map
Returns a new array with the result of the running block, once for every element.(See also .map)(Both map and collect have destructive versions !)
["cat","bat","mat"].collect{|word| word * 2}
#returns ["catcat", "batbat", "matmat"]
[1,2,3,4,5].map!{|integer| integer * 5}
#returns [5,10,15,20,25]
Count
Count counts how many times an object is in the enumberable, or give it a block and it will tell you how many times the block returns true.
["cat","bat","mat"].count{|word| word.length == 3} #returns 3
["cat","bat","hats"].count{|word| word.length == 3} #returns 2
["cat","bat","hats"].count{|word| word == "bat"} #returns 1
Detect
Detect returns the first object that is found to be true and if it is not found it returns nil.
["cats","bat","mat"].detect{|word| word.length == 3} #returns bat
["cat","bat","hats"].detect{|word| word.length == 5} #returns nil
Each_Slice
Iteriate through the given block, by slicing up the enumerable and passes the slices into the block. It passes an array of values with a length = to the arguement.
return_array = []
["cat","bat","mat","jack","rat","hummus"].each_slice(2){|words| return_array << (words[0] + words[1])}
#returns nil, but adds values to return_array["catbat","matjack","rathummus"]
Each_With_Index
Iteriate through the given block with two arguments (the item and its index).
["cat","bat","mat"].each_with_index{|word, index| puts word*(index+1) }
#"cat", "batbat", "matmatmat"
Inject and Reduce
Iteriate through the given block with two arguments (an "accumulator value (memo)", and the actual item). The result of each item 'injected' into the block is saved into the accumulator value. After iteration, returns the accumulator value (memo).
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1].inject { |sum, n| sum + n } #returns 15
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1].reduce { |sum, n| sum + n } #returns 15
Select
Returns an array of all elements that returns true when passed through the block.
["cat","bat","mat","zipper"].any?{|word| word.length == 6} #returns "zipper"


Returns a partially constructed Catch object, which you must give an exception handler function as an argument to "by"
A container class for catch/finally logic
A container class for finally code
A container class for Try logic
Creates a Catch object which will catch any of the supplied exceptions
Creates a Catch object which will catch any of the supplied exceptions. Since the returned Catch object has no specific logic defined and will simply rethrow the exceptions it catches, you will typically want to call "opt" or "either" on the return value, or assign custom logic by calling "withApply".
This method is used to compare the receiver object (this
)
with the argument object (arg0
) for equivalence
This method is used to compare the receiver object (this
)
with the argument object (arg0
) for equivalence.
The default implementations of this method is an equivalence relation:
x
of type Any
,
x.equals(x)
should return true
.x
and y
of type
Any
, x.equals(y)
should return true
if and only
if y.equals(x)
returns true
.x
, y
, and z
of type AnyRef
if x.equals(y)
returns true
and
y.equals(z)
returns
true
, then x.equals(z)
should return true
.
If you override this method, you should verify that
your implementation remains an equivalence relation.
Additionally, when overriding this method it is often necessary to
override hashCode
to ensure that objects that are
"equal" (o1.equals(o2)
returns true
)
hash to the same Int
(o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)
).
the object to compare against this object for equality.
true
if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false
otherwise.
Creates a Catch object which maps all the supplied exceptions to 'None'
Creates a Catch object which maps all the supplied exceptions to 'None'.
Returns a hash code value for the object
Returns a hash code value for the object.
The default hashing algorithm is platform dependent.
Note that it is allowed for two objects to have identical hash
codes (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)
) yet not be
equal (o1.equals(o2)
returns false
). A
degenerate implementation could always return 0
.
However, it is required that if two objects are equal
(o1.equals(o2)
returns true
) that they
have identical hash codes
(o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)
). Therefore, when
overriding this method, be sure to verify that the behavior is
consistent with the equals
method.
Creates a Catch object which catches and ignores any of the supplied exceptions

One you have your cropped image, you just need to load it into the app by going to File -> Open..
Assuming the image has been cropped correctly and doesn't contain any funky black pixels outside of the receipt image's border, click "Crop/Grid" and it should crop and grid it for you!
Now just hit the "Define Fields" button and the GUI editor should open with your newly gridded image. To define a field just click on the starting point followed by the end point.
Once two red dots have been placed a pop up window will appear asking you to define the field name (mandatory), whether you want it to have
an initial default value (labels/static fields need this) and its justification (receipt specs should tell you if they have to be centered or not).
Once your done hit "Save", or if you want that current GUI session to be cleared just hit "Clear Changes".
Thats it! Just hit "Convert to XFS" and it will save your XFS form under the location posted to the Console.
Thats it! Just hit "Convert to XFS" and it will save your XFS form under the location posted to the Console.
It's worth noting there is a "XFSFormSettings.xml" file which can be found under
Here you can edit things such as whether you want the receipt to use ROWCOLUMNS or MM, ROWCOLUMN-X and ROWCOLUMN-Y modifiers, Font and CPI (Characters Per Inch aka Font Size). The default should be suitable for the project as of 07/04/2015.

Ryanair named worst airline for cleanliness by passengers - see the full list
Ryanair has been named the worst airline for cleanliness in a new survey by Which? Travel where members were asked to rate a number of airlines
by Julie Delahaye, https://www.facebook.com/juliedjournoRyanair has been named the airline with the worst cleanliness by passengers in a new survey.
The budget carrier topped the list of airlines with a 'poor' cleanliness rating in research conducted by Which? Travel.
Nearly 8,000 Which? members were asked to rate a number of airlines, with Ryanair scoring the lowest score for 'good' cleanliness with 42 per cent.
Meanwhile in the ratings for 'poor' cleanliness, it came out top with 24 per cent.
Wizz Air and Vueling also failed to impress passengers, coming second in joint place on the list of 'poor' cleanliness with 10 per cent.
On the flip side, Air New Zealand was praised as passengers for having the best cleanliness, topping the 'good' list with a rating of 97 per cent.
It was followed by Singapore Airlines and Emirates - and none of these three airlines were given a 'poor' rating by the survey participants.
Of course it's no secret that plane cabins aren't exactly the cleanest of places.
For example, last year a study found that the headrest was the dirtiest surface on a plane - but the research samples also revealed traces of E. coli bacteria on both the headrests and seat pockets which indicated 'fecal contamination'.
The good news is that there are some ways you can try to lower the risk of catching an infection.
For example, you could pack a hand sanitizer in your hand luggage, or wash your hands before eating or touching your face.
According to one flight attendant, it's also worth aiming for early flights as these have plenty of perks, one of which means a cleaner aircraft as planes are generally cleaned at the start of the day.
Planes are usually cleaned in between flights, but being one of the first passengers means you minimise the chance of ending up on the last flight where something may have been missed, not to mention you won't be sitting in a seat which has hosted other passengers in the space of a few hours.
You can check out the full list of airlines with 'good' and 'poor' cleanliness below...

Sometimes you might want to show empty rows in the data table when there are less amount of data is available than
the specified limit. Therefore, in such cases, you might need to turn the showSubstituteRows
on.
To enable showSubstituteRows, simply set showSubstituteRows
to true and by default the property
is false.
{{demoSnippet.showSubstituteRows}}
In default the table doesn't show substitute rows although data limit is less than the specified limit. In the above example limit is specified as 15. But it is showing 5 additional rows due to unavailability of 5 data items.
Please refer the What You Will See section example for explore about substitute row usages.
Substitute rows will not be shown although data limit is less than the specified limit, if
showSubstituteRows
property is set to false. In the following example limit is specified as 15. But
it
is not showing 5 additional rows because showing substitute rows is set to false.

| SUMMARY: NESTED | FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD | DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD |
Command is an interface for the actual end point in the generic
RPC Framework that executes RPC. A command exposes two methods for
execution execute()
and invokeRPC()
.
The execute()
method is the one that determines how this
command should actually be executed. It might determine that it is
necessary to call a CommandHandler
before the command is
actually executed if CommandHandler
is configured with any CommandHandler
. Or, it might
determine that no CommandHandler
needs to be called and
the Command
can simply be executed and the results returned
to the calling program if no CommandHandler()
is configured.
The invokeRPC()
method is the one that actually executes
the command by mapping the Command
input onto the RPC defined
in the transport layer.
A Command's execute()
and invokeRPC()
method
throw these exceptions; CommandInvocationException
and
CommandTimeoutException
. These exceptions are intended to wrap
any underlying exceptions that might be thrown by a particular transport
or back end. These exceptions needs to wrap the underlying Exception
(as opposed to copying its message) so that stack trace printouts can
contain the information from the underlying exception.
CommandTimeoutException
is a special case of exception, since
time out doesn't indicate whether the RPC call is succeeded or not we need
to handle timeouts differently and so this exception is provided to allow
that.
InvalidInputException
indicates the input object passed to
the Command is invalid.
Also, Command's execute()
and invokeRPC()
method returns CommandResult
which is a transport independent
representation of the results from a RPC call.
A Command also contains a context
object which is a Properties
property. This property is
intended to be used as a hook for additional configuration or hints to a
transport/backend system that can not be captured in the standard input.

public CommandResult execute(java.lang.Object pInput) throws CommandInvocationException, CommandTimeoutException, InvalidInputException
CommandHandler
If it does then calls the executeCommand()
on
the configured CommandHandler
. Eventually there will be
a CommandHandler that will call the invokeRPC()
method on
this command. If no CommandHandler is configured on this component then
the execute()
method just calls the invokeRPC()
method directly.
pInput
- the input Map to pass as a input to RPC Call.
CommandInvocationException
- if an error occurs in the middleware
or at the back end.
CommandTimeoutException
- if timeout occurs while invoking the command.
InvalidInputException
- if input object passed is invalid.public CommandResult invokeRPC(java.lang.Object pInput) throws CommandInvocationException, CommandTimeoutException, InvalidInputException
pInput
- the input to map onto transport format and pass to back end.
CommandInvocationException
- if an error occurs in the middleware
or at the back end.
CommandTimeoutException
- if timeout occurs while invoking the command.
InvalidInputException
- if input object passed is invalid.

parentheses ()
Can be used for calling a function/method, or setting values, or variables, for the function to use.
function()
function(value1, value2)
function(value1, value2)
Grouping things together, such as conditions, or setting an order of equations.
(x + y) % z
(value 1 && value 2) || value 3
(value 1 && value 2) || value 3
Or to call a method on a string.
Brackets []
Can be used for creating arrays
var anArray = [x, y, z]
or accessing the index number of an array
anArray[0]
you can also use bracket notation instead of dot notation. For example, these two call the same condition:
document.getElementById[one]
document.getElementById.one
document.getElementById.one
Braces {}
Are used to encapsulate a loop, function, or object
function {
----
conditions
----
}
loop {
----
conditions
----
}
----
conditions
----
}
loop {
----
conditions

}
'single quotes' and "double quotes"
These can be used interchangably to enclose a string, or used as quote marks inside a string.


customers =
query()
.select("name, registered, version")
.findList();
```
With the above we specify the properties we want to fetch. We still get Customer entity beans returned
but they are partially populated.
The SQL generated by the above query has:
```sql
select t0.id, t0.name, t0.registered, t0.version from customer t0
```
Note that the @Id
property is automatically included for most queries and it is
automatically exludeded for distinct, findSingleAttribute and aggregation queries.
Example - single attribute
```java
List names =
query()
.select("lastName")
.findSingleAttributeList();
```
Example - aggregate single attribute
```java
String maxName =
query()
.select("max(lastName)")
.findSingleAttribute();
```
Example - select formula
```java
List names =
query()
.select("concat(lastName,', ',firstName)")
.findSingleAttributeList();
```
Example - select formula, Postgis ST_Distance
With this example we explicitly cast to a Java BigDecimal type using
the ::BigDecimal
cast at the end of the formula.
```java
// given route is a Postgis geometry(linestring,4326)
// return the distance between the start and end points
BigDecimal routeDistance = query()
.select("ST_Distance(ST_StartPoint(route), ST_EndPoint(route))::BigDecimal")
.where()
.idEq(tripId)
.findSingleAttribute();
```
Example - count distinct
```java
int count =
query()
.setDistinct(true)
.select("lastName")
.findCount();
```
```sql
select count(distinct t0.last_name) from contact t0
```
Example - aggregation
```java
List machineStats =
query()
.select("date, sum(distance), sum(hours)")
.findList();
```
```sql
select t0.date, sum(t0.distance), sum(t0.hours)
from d_machine_stats t0
group by t0.date
```

Category: CHANGE/CLARIFICATION
Problem Description:
CLtL says that a stream can be used as an argument and converted to a pathname,
but many sources or sinks of data that streams might be connected to have no
pathnames associated with them; for example, streams created with
MAKE-TWO-WAY-STREAM or OPEN-STRING-STREAM. For many such streams, there is no
simple way to coerce such a stream to a pathname.
Proposal PATHNAME-STREAM:FILES-OR-SYNONYM:
Clarify that the use of a stream as an argument that expects a pathname (as
described on p413 of CLtL) only applies to streams that are originally opened by
use of the OPEN or WITH-OPEN-FILE, or to synonym streams whose symbol is bound
to such a stream. It is an error to attempt to obtain a pathname from a stream
created with MAKE-TWO-WAY-STREAM, OPEN-STRING-STREAM, MAKE-ECHO-STREAM,
MAKE-BROADCAST-STREAM, MAKE-CONCATENATED-STREAM, MAKE-STRING-INPUT-STREAM,
The pathname used represents the name used to open the file. This may be, but is
not required to be, the actual name of the file. The pathname used is the same
as would be returned by the PATHNAME function.
Rationale:
This is probably what the designers of Common Lisp intended. This is the only
thing that can be implemented without large changes to the language such as
extending pathnames to things other than files.
Current Practice:
Some systems signal an error if a non-file stream is used as a pathname. Others
return an empty pathname.
Some implementations do not return a meaningful value for PATHNAME of a synonym
stream.
Adoption Cost:
Implementations that do not currently handle PATHNAME of a synonym stream will
have to change to allow it. Otherwise, since the proposal says only "is an
error" rather than "signals an error", no implementations other changes are
necessary.
Benefits:
The description of pathname functions will make more sense.
Conversion Cost:
Small: Users with code which accesses pathname components of streams in
implementations which allow it might need to change their programs to make them
portable.
Aesthetics:
Makes language a little cleaner.
Discussion:
The only point of disagreement on this proposal has been on the issue of whether
PATHNAME applies to synonym streams and returns the pathname of the stream
designated.
This version of the proposal says yes, because CLtL p 329 says about synonym
streams that "Any operations on the new stream ..." and does not say anything
about exceptions; earlier on the page the phrase "synonym streams that pass all
operations on" is used. This seems fairly unambiguous, although the word
"operations" is not defined. There was a similar controversy about what CLOSE of
a synonym stream means.
Note that there is currently no way portable to determine whether a stream has a
pathname available.
The entire PATHNAME section needs work to clarify the intent and enable portable
code. This is just a minor issue among the major ones.

Ralph Squillace posted an walkthrough entry of how metadata publication (MEX + WSDL) is enabled in Windows Communication Foundation. Besides discussing the configuration aspects, he also briefly touches on how those aspects affect the runtime behavior.
This came at a perfect time for me because I spent a few hours yesterday going over the System.ServiceModel assemblies with reflector trying to understand how it was that the metadata endpoints get hooked up to a service, so this helps a bit. I still need to look closely at a few issues before I understand what's going on well enough to try at something similar I've been wanting to play with...
Ralph has also been writing some samples about Sessionless Duplex Services here and here which are quite interesting as well.

Jackie Brown (1997)
Review by Zach Douglas<EMAIL_ADDRESS>HTTP://USERS.HUB.OFTHE.NET/~ZACHD
A lot of the reviews I read for Jackie Brown started to sound the same. Too long, bringing back Pam Grier like Travolta, yada yada yada. So I wrote my own thoughts down which I haven't had time to do in some time.  Everyone said Jackie Brown was too long and self indulgent. Guess what - so is my criticism, read it or not!
First off, Tarantino didn't have to cast Pam Grier for this role. There were no other options. Pam Grier IS Jackie Brow. In my book it's a beautiful thing that Tarantino has written this role, better yet, this MOVIE for Pam Grier. Altering Elmore Leonard's original title of "Rum Punch" (What's that mean any ways?) and Jackie's last name to more closely fit Grier's persona as the 70's biggest female blaxploitation star (Actually, Grier was one of the biggest box office draws of the 70's - period). Jackie's description could be Grier's - Strong but aging, black and beautiful, still working but having seen better days. Grier plays Jackie with above all - determination. Like James Brown howled, "Got to get over, 'fo we go under" - Grier and Jackie both get over magnificently. Might as well stick to casting since the other characters DID have to be cast. Samuel Jackson as Ordell - excellent of course. I've read some people say, "He's pretty much like Jules in Pulp Fiction". No, he's not really much like Jules at all. Jules Winfield was the real thing. Ordell is a wannabee. Unlike the real Macks with a whole stable of 'fly ho's' Ordell's has three - a stoner, a simpleton, and an chubby loon. He put's on gloves like I used to do pretending to be David Hasslehoff in Knight Rider. He wants to be important, a player... and that is why he must surround himself with the likes of Lewis, Beaumont, Melanie, Sheronda, and Simone - they are less bright than he and thus to him he's the Man. Ordell's character is a lot closer to the one Jackson played in John Paul Anderson's "Hard Eight" - an up and comer who is pulling some strings, but can't close the bag (I'm speaking of the character of course, but the same might apply to Anderson). Robert Forster as Max Cherry. I'm unfortunately somewhat unfamiliar with Forster's 70's T.V. and B-Movies work. Nevertheless, it was all the more surprise to see such a great performance from this 'unknown'. Max Cherry IS a "Cherry" (Virgin) of sorts... I don't think we know if Max is single, divorced, or what, but it's obvious he has lived a calculated life somewhat removed from a more sexual or emotional existance... much too calculating to know what to do when he is smitten by Jackie Brown. Poor Max calculates until the very end, and as his time runs out he can't compute the options fast enough. Forster plays Max with the all the restraint required as his prominent role could have been easily overplayed. Keaton as the cop. It works I guess. In Tarantino's world cop's are generally a. White and B. Dorky and Keaton performs both with ease. He's fairly on the ball, but he like Ordell, has a long way to go - if you want to BE the man, you gotta BEAT the man right? Bridgette Fonda as Ordell's "Little Surfer Girl" Melanie. Perfect. Bridgette=Gidget? Good to see her do something substantial, Singles and Bodies, Rest, and Motion seem like eons ago. Maybe get a new agent? Chris Tucker as the short lived Beaumont Livingston - just fine - Tucker is perhaps the blackest of the young black actors. Easily black enough to hang with Jackson and Grier. If Chris Rock hadn't overexposed himself and done so many goofy commercials perhaps he would have been the one getting in the trunk? Last but not least - DeNiro as Lewis. I had some problems with this. I first thought, "DeNiro can't play such a looser!". Then I thought.. "But he played two of the greatest losers in film history". So what was the difference?   The role was beneath Bob, but DeNiro gives Lewis all he possibly can muster with such a limited task. Ok, that's casting. Tired yet? Too bad. Now where? Direction? Tarantino's direction is a major break from his previous works. While Tarantino is still quite indulgent with the camera, he is more restrained than before. Absent are Tarantino's post modern tendencies - the "new" new wave tendency of drawing attention to the film itself. Gone are the prefabricated gaffes, stylized deaths, slowed motion, cartoon boxes drawn in the air, etc. Jackie harkens back to the 70's ultra realistic, slowly spun crime tales such as Friedken's French Connection or Lumet's Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon, and the Anderson Tapes (Tarantino is no doubt a fan of all). And while Dogs and Pulp were comprised from so many different bits and pieces and styles - in Jackie, Tarantino invest in a singular style - (will this be called "his own" now?) which is something he really hasn't done before. I could find no distinguishable film references in Jackie in either dialogue or shots other than one mentioned later. One might say this was because it was an adaptation and not Tarantino's own writing - yet I believe this was a deliberate action by Tarantino to hush the loud mouths who said he has no talent as a director above and beyond homaging other's works. It wouldn't be that hard to make film references regardless of the source material... Danny Boyle took Irwin Welsh's Trainspotting and meshed a wide range of references from the likes of A Hard Days Night to a Clockwork Orange. Again, I believe it was a deliberate choice. One of Tarantino's smaller trademarks does survive... the POV shot from the car trunk now appearing in 4 Tarantino movies. Another difference is in the look of the film as Guilermo Navaro must have been a cheaper Cinematographer than Andrzej Sekula who worked on Dogs and Pulp. I liked Sekula better, but Navaro's images seem a little brighter and sharper which does work ok with the more realistic style of Jackie. Ok, what about those 2 obvious 'tricks' that Tarantino does use in Jackie? The Split Screen, and the repeated time sequence. The split screen job might be considered an all-purpose homage to 70's film making (see QT favorite De Palma use it in Carrie or Norman Jewison back in 68 in a probable QT favorite the Thomas Crown Affair). The shot is ballsy.. but masterful.. it would be difficult to envision the scene being done any other way after viewing it. Secondly, the repeated time sequence. I read others say it's similar to his previous non-linear time constructions. Again, totally different. Previously Tarantino has taken the entire story and shuffled it, overlapping small portions creating a disjointing effect on the narrative that takes multiple viewings or some brainstorming to figure out exactly what DID happen. In Jackie, the same small portion of the story is told exactly the same way, three times, from 3 different view points. This actually increases the amount of information received, instead of diminishing it (of course, not much to think about later). Prominent (and hard working) internet critic James Berardinelli likened it to Rashomon or more recently Courage Under Fire - yet those tales were repeated multiple times by different narrators and each narrator took his own liberties with the story and each version is told with direction to reflect the differences (well, at least Roshomon was). I think the sequence in Jackie to be much more akin to Stanley Kubrick's "The Killing" where a strictly objective camera captures a heist from multiple view points and angles. From one angle, a character is merely peripheral while the other character does HIS important task.. yet switch the angle to the peripheral character and now we see what HE is going through while the other character is now just a figure in the distance. Thankfully there is no narrator to explain things to us as was needed in the Killing, but Tarantino does include a (visible) 'stop watch' just as Kubrick provided an oral one to help out. I think it's a fascinating use of film technique to tell the story. Is it necessary? Of course not. Then again, what in film really is? They could have just filmed Jack Palance in an easy chair reading the story and it would be just as good right? The music - typical Tarantino fair? Again, not really. Not much of the surf and rockabilly of Pulp, and barely any of the 70's pop / rock which permeated Dogs. Tarantino has turned to some fine, fine soul music. More importantly, most (but not all) of the songs are used in a genuine manner - not as ironic counterpoint, as could have been expected from the guy who had a cop beat to Joe Tex singing "I Gotcha" and brutal assaults set to "Stuck in the Middle" and "Commanche". Tarantino treats these songs with much more respect and actually repeats songs as 'Themes' (every good hero should have one) for his characters which is something he has not done before. The Delfonics "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time" scores the attraction between Jackie and Max. An incredibly nasty instrumental tune which I have no idea what the name or artist is (Since it's an instrumental AND since they left it off the soundtrack) plays when Ordell is laying forth his halfbaked but nefarious plans. Jackie's theme is "Across 110th Street" by Bobby Womack, incredibly telling for the character - "Pimps trying to catch a woman that's weak", "Doing whatever I had to do to survive, I'm not saying what I did was all right.." The movie opens and closes with the song and to those (like me) who hold such soul music near and dear to their hearts, Jackie mouthing the lyrics while departing haven risen above her predicament is a pretty stirring moment. This deep fried soul is no doubt much less accessible to the average Tarantino demographic from his previous two films but to those who have an appreciation for black music (and film) should really, really, really dig it. Well, I've just about covered most of the things I had in mind to say about Jackie Brown.  Usually it takes two viewings for this, so they are a bit scarce now. First is the somewhat obvious theme of "age" in the film. Looking back, Tarantino's previous films do touch on the subject... in Dogs everyone is to respect the Elder Joe Cabot who is referred to throughout as "Papa" or "Daddy".   Travolta gained pounds as it was important that Vincent also be a hit man past his prime. The Wolf is an elderly statesman, he tells his girlfriend she should "respect her elders". In Jackie, most of the 'bad guys' are aging. It's not so much sub-text because they talk about it openly, but it's an interesting theme nevertheless. Lewis coughs and is a bit too old for sex with Melanie (and on a separate thought.. has his incarceration made him more comfortable with front to back sex?). Max and Jackie talk about how they are getting old while listening to a selection from her vinyl collection (at this point there is also some clever innuendo concerning how "black coffee" would be fine). Any ways, I wonder if this theme of aging is something Tarantino has highlighted or created (perhaps some Allenesque paranoia exists in Tarantino?) or if this was merely part of Leonard's character traits that he chose to remain faithful to? Lastly, some symbolism in a reverse fashion from Reservoir Dogs (literally, fashion). In RD, the Dogs start the movie dressed immaculately in the super cool black and white retro-fitted suits made famous twice before by the likes of Godard and Woo. As the film progresses though, sunglasses are lost, jackets tossed, and white shirts come un tucked and blood soaked. Jackie Brown encounters the reverse - as her situation improves, so does her outfit.  She goes downward to "County Blues" and bathrobes and other unflattering attire. But as Jackie is on the rise, she dawns a tight fitting red dress and is filmed notably more attractively. Finally, with the execution of her plan - she purchases a chic, 70's style pant suit - black and white - not so much unlike the black and white duds of both the Dogs (before they all got trashed) and of Jules and Vincent (before they had to dress like 'A couple of dorks'). This is no doubt nothing new to film as symbolic colors and wardrobe have always been important to the best film makers - but it's attention to such details that I believe will keep Tarantino among those great ones in the years to come. Was Jackie Brown too long? I can't hardly stand people objecting to the length of a film as a criticism for 'what's wrong with it'. A bad film can be too long. How can a good film be too long? Why do people go to spend big bucks on a movie, and then bolt from the theater like they have something better to be doing? I make it a point to get a seat before the trailers start. I love trailers. By the time they are through I'm already through a box of Jr. Mints. I watch the movie, I get comfortable, I focus on the whole screen and try and take it all in. I listen to the music, and then when it's over I WATCH THE CREDITS. Why not? Is there not music playing on a sound system that costs thousands of dollars? Aren't you in a comfy seat with a climate controlled environment? Don't you want to see the songs and artists? Do you know any of the people Tarantino thanked at the end of the credits?? Did you see the beautiful Jackie Brown logo in 198 point "Boogie" font scroll up the screen to close the credits? How about the inserts in credits of L.A. Confidential? Are you watching the movie because you like film or you are killing time? If you answer the latter, that's fine - we all need to kill some time. It's just disheartening for people like me to hear an artist's work criticized for being too long simply because some folks's inability to relax and let those 'important' things rest for a few hours and REALLY take in a movie. Overall, Jackie Brown is not a monumental film. It's almost as much pulp fiction as Leonard's novels are - entertaining, but somewhat forgettable. No one will quote Ordell or Jackie on a daily basis. The Simpson's won't have a homage to it. Furniture commercials won't start featuring soul music. But, it was a very, very good film and one that lets the load of 'what comes next' come down of his back. Hell, I feel more relief than he does now that's it's over and done with. It proves Tarantino is not a 'one trick pony'. It shows a great deal of consistency when fellow film makers who were declared "Auteurs" after one film are failing miserably on their second and third. It shows a definite turn towards a more serious style of film making, and perhaps, if he wants to make another, will lead to another monumental film.

This section explains how to compile WinPcap, both the kernel level and
the user-level portion, on the various Win32 platforms. The source code can be
found on the WinPcap website.
Compiling the driver
Two main NPF source trees are available for compilation: Windows NTx and Windows 9x. Note that, since the NPF
Driver is platform-dependent, it is STRONGLY suggested to compile it for the OS where it will be used, in order to
link the correct DDK libraries. For example, if you compile the
driver with the Windows NT 4 DDK, it will not work properly on Windows 2000 and
vice versa.
Compiling the driver for Windows NT4
Software requirements:
- Microsoft Driver Developer Kit (DDK) for Windows NT4
- A recent version of the Microsoft Platform Software Development Kit
(SDK) that is compatible with Visual Studio 6 (the latest compatible one is
Platform SDK February 2003). This version of the PSDK is available on the
Microsoft web site at
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/psdk-full.htm.
It can be ordered online at
http://www.qmedia.ca/launch/psdk.htm, and it's also available to
Microsoft MSDN subscribers on the Subscribers Downloads web site.
- Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
with Service Pack 5 or 6 (both the service packs are available online on the
Microsoft web site).
If your system satisfies these requirements, follow these steps:
- From the Windows NT Start menu, select the folder Programs and
then Development Kits, then Windows NT4 DDK. From here select the voice
Checked Build
Environment if you want to build a debug version, or Free Build
Environment if you want to build a release version.
- A command prompt will be opened. Move to the directory PacketNTx inside the
WinPcap source folder and type the command
CompileDriver
This script will generate the driver (npf.sys). The binary will be put in
one of these folders
- Free Build Environment: winpcap\PacketNTx\driver\bin\NT4\i386\free
- Checked Build Environment: winpcap\PacketNTx\driver\bin\NT4\i386\checked
Warning: sometimes, during the compilation of the driver, a lot of
'last line incomplete' errors are generated. Ignore these errors and let the
compilation process continue, they are due to bugs in some DDK versions.
Compiling the driver for Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/Win7/2008R2 (x86 and x64)
Software requirements:
- Microsoft Windows Driver Kit (WDK) 6001.18002. As of release 4.1,
WinPcap is compiled with WDK 6001.18002.
NOTE: it should be possible to use older DDKs to compile WinPcap, but you
might need to
manually modify the compilation scripts in order to disable PREfast (PREfast is
a static code analysis tool shipped with recent versions of the DDK/WDK).
If your system satisfies these requirements, follow these steps:
- From the Windows Start menu, select the folder Programs and
then Windows Driver K, then WDK 6001.18002, then Build Environments.
- x86 driver: Choose Windows 2000 and then Windows 2000 x86 Free Build Environment if you want to build a release version or Windows 2000
x86 Checked Build Environment if you want to build a debug version.
- x64 driver: Choose Windows Server 2003 and then Windows
Server 2003 x64 Free Build Environment if you want to build a release version or
Windows Server 2003
x64 Checked Build Environment if you want to build a debug version.
- A command prompt will be opened. Move to the directory PacketNTx inside the
WinPcap source folder and type the command
CompileDriver
This script will generate the driver (npf.sys). The binary will be put in
one of these folders
- x86 driver (both Free and Checked Build): winpcap\PacketNTx\driver\bin\i386
- x64 driver (both Free and Checked Build): winpcap\PacketNTx\driver\bin\amd64
Compiling the driver on Windows 9x
NOTE: this Windows platform is no longer supported by
WinPcap. However, the sources for these operating systems are still available in
the sources package.
To compile the driver for Windows 9x you will need:
- Driver Developer Kit (DDK) for Windows 95/98/ME
- A recent version of the Microsoft Platform Software Development Kit (SDK)
that is compatible with Visual Studio 6 (the latest compatible one is
Platform SDK February 2003). This version of the PSDK is available on the
Microsoft web site at
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/psdk-full.htm.
It can be ordered online at
http://www.qmedia.ca/launch/psdk.htm, and it's also available to
Microsoft MSDN subscribers on the Subscribers Downloads web site.
- Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
with Service Pack 5 or 6 (both the service packs are available online on the
Microsoft web site).
The steps to follow are:
- Open a DOS shell
- Go to the VisualC++ BIN directory (for example C:\DEVSTUDIO\VC\BIN) and
execute the command
Vcvars32
- Go to the SDK directory (for example C:\MSSDK) and execute the command
Setenv sdk_path
where sdk_path is the directory of SDK (for example Setenv C:\MSSDK)
- Go to the DDK directory (for example C:\DDK) and execute the command
Ddkenv 32 net
- Move to the directory whit the driver's source code and type the command
nmake rtl
to obtain a release version, or
nmake
to obtain a debug version.
The release version of packet.vxd will be placed in the
retail
directory, the debug version in the debug directory.
Warning: On some systems the NMAKE utility is not able to
launch ADRC2VXD, this means that the driver binary is generated correctly, but
without the copyright information. We don't know the cause of this problem.
Compiling packet.dll
The source tree for this DLL is located in PacketNTx\dll\.
NOTE: the 9x family of Windows operating systems is no longer supported
by WinPcap. However, the sources for these operating systems are still available
in the sources package.
Software requirements:
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 SP1. It's theoretically possible to compile
the x86 version with Visual Studio 6, but the project files are no longer
maintained.
- The AirPcap developer's pack from
http://www.cacetech.com/products/airpcap.html. The AirPcap developer's
pack needs to be unzipped in a folder in the same folder where the WinPcap
sources have been unzipped.
To compile the PACKET.DLL, load the project packet.sln contained in the directory PacketNTx\dll\project
in Visual Studio 2005. There are several project
configurations, each of them available for the x86 (Win32) and x64 platforms:
- Release: standard release configuration
- Debug: standard debug configuration
- Release NT4: release configuration able to run on
NT4. It does not include Wan and IP helper API support.
- Debug NT4: debug configuration able to run on
NT4. It does not include Wan and IP helper API support.
- Release No NetMon: release configuration able to run on
Vista. It
does not include Wan support (with the NetMon API).
- Debug No NetMon: debug configuration able to run on
Vista. It
does not include Wan support (with the NetMon API).
- Release LOG_TO_FILE: standard release configuration with tracing to
file enabled.
- Release NT4 LOG_TO_FILE: release configuration able to run on
NT4 with tracing to file enabled. It does not include Wan and IP helper API support.
- Release No NetMon LOG_TO_FILE: release configuration able to run on
Vista with tracing to file enabled. It
does not include Wan support (with the NetMon API).
Choose the desired configuration and build the project to obtain the binary
files.
Compiling wpcap.dll
wpcap.dll can be compiled for any Win32 platform and the generated dll is system independent.
System Requirements:
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 SP1. It's theoretically possible to compile
the x86 version with Visual Studio 6, but the project files are no longer
maintained.
- The AirPcap developer's pack from
http://www.cacetech.com/products/airpcap.htm. The AirPcap developer's
pack needs to be unzipped in a folder in the same folder where the WinPcap
sources have been unzipped.There are eight build project configurations:
To compile the wpcap.dll, load the project wpcap.sln contained in the directory
wpcap\PRJ
in Visual Studio 2005. There are several project
configurations, each of them available for the x86 (Win32) and x64 platforms:
- Release: standard release configuration
- Debug: standard debug configuration
- Release No AirPcap: release configuration without support for
AirPcap adapters.

Here we are going to instante a class in a main method
Right click on the directory "Propeties" and then Add->New File...->General->Empty Class->New
So there we created a Class "Dog" that contains a method called "bark". When it is called, the console gets a "Roof!" printed
using System;
namespace Tutorial
{
//Created a public class named Dog
public class Dog
{
//Method from Dog class called bark that prints "Roof!" at the console
public void bark(){
Console.WriteLine ("Roof!");
}
}
}
Now we are creating an instantiation of the Class Dog and then using its method to print at the console.
using System;
namespace Tutorial
{
class MainClass
{
public static void Main (string[] args)
{
//Creating an instantiation of the Dog Class
Dog Coco = new Dog ();
//Using the Dog method called "bark" to print "Roof!" a the console
Coco.bark ();
}
}
}
The result by running the program made.


| Apache Struts 2 Documentation > Home > Overview > Whiteboard > Developing Ajax Widgets |
This page is intended for framework developers rather than application developers.
The ajax/dhtml components use the DOJO Toolkit for both javascript event handling and AJAX calls.
To understand the widget framework this page is a must read:
http://dojotoolkit.org/docs/fast_widget_authoring.html
To understand the dojo event framework which is used extensively by the widget framework read this:
http://dojotoolkit.org/docs/dojo_event_system.html
OK Great so your smart on DOJO Widgets and DOJO Events lets see how we use these.
Lets start with looking at what a user of WW would include in their page, a JSP in this case:
<saf:a id="link1" theme="ajax" href="/AjaxRemoteLink.action" showErrorTransportText="true" errorText="An Error ocurred">Update</ww:a>
This is just a standard framework component. All the attributes defined here must map to a component class thats defined in the taglib.tld. Were not going to go into how the componets work in this discussion, just be assured that nothing different happens here.
The framework via the component system will read in the ajax/a.ftl file to determine how to generate the following html file. Again this is standard Component processing so we'll breeze over this.
Now lets look at what this snippet of code would generate for us in html:
Update
Lets review this file. The dojoType type tells the dojo parser what to do with this tag. This is going to need to correspont to a call in our widge file like:
dojo.widget.tags.addParseTreeHandler("dojo:BindAnchor");
All the other attributes are basically passthrough from our component code to our widget code. No real magic happening w/ them.
Next up lets look at some snippets of the widget file:
webwork.widgets.HTMLBindAnchor = function() { //lots removed for clarity this.widgetType = "BindAnchor"; this.templatePath = dojo.uri.dojoUri("webwork/widgets/BindAnchor.html"); // the template anchor instance this.anchor = null; //lots removed self.anchor.href = "javascript:{}"; dojo.event.kwConnect({ srcObj: self.anchor, srcFunc: "onclick", adviceObj: self, adviceFunc: "bind", adviceType: 'before' }); //snippet removed } } // make it a tag dojo.widget.tags.addParseTreeHandler("dojo:BindAnchor");
There are three aspects in this code snippet that are worth review. The declaration of the templatePath. This defines to DOJO where the prototype for its component lives. DOJO is going to read this component to determine what event binding needs to happen (TODO: a better description here). Were going to look at this template file in a moment, this file is where the real magic happens. The second aspect of this file is the kwConnect call... this is the ajax call to the remote source. I removed the snippet that happens afterwards but its not important here. And the final aspect worth understanding now is the last line. This tells dojo that this widget is registered as the name BindAchor... recall the dojoType="BindAnchor" in the above HTML snippet.
Now lets review the template file... BindAnchor.html... Understanding the template files were the big realization moment for me.

This template simply tells dojo one thing. the dojoAttachPoint. This attribute dojoAttachPoint is the javascript variable in the widget file to attach thid DOM object to. If you review the above widget code you will see a variable declaration called this.anchor = null; Dojo will plug this DOM object into that variable so its availabe in the widget JS. COOL.
OK... lets look at a more complex template file.
<input dojoAttachPoint="attachBtn" dojoAttachEvent="onClick: bind" type="submit" />
This is the code for the button template. Again its got the dojoAttachPoint attribute, but its also got dojoAttachEvent. This is based on the DOJO event system. the dojoAttachEvent property gives us a mapping between what the DOM Node's event name is (onClick) and what logical action to take as a result (bind). This is how the the dojo widget code itercepts the button click code and calls the bind function.
Ok so now you can see how dojo intercepts calls to the real button click, and calls the bind funciton in your widget code. You could do most anything in this method. But in this case the bind function is defined in Bind.js which is the super JS inherited file to BindButton.js.
Hopefully this combined with the DOJO references is enough to get you up to speed.

Christmas market and food festival guide in Burton
This is when all the events take place
by Jenny MoodyIt is time to dust off those Santa hats and get into the festive spirit to celebrate the start of Chirstmas.
Christmas is the most magical time of the year as the country celebrates the pending arrival of the big man himself and when it comes to getting the celebrations under way Burton is no exception.
There is a full programme of events as part of 'Christmas in Burton', which have been organised by East Staffordshire Borough Council.
The events, which will include performances, shows, activities and festive markets, are the perfect way for the whole family to enjoy Christmas, organisers have said.
The programme kicks off on Sunday, November 24, with the annual Christmas lights switch on in Burton Market Place.
The day will start with a Christmas Market and entertainment from 2pm, followed by the lights switch on and fireworks display at 5pm.
Shoppers will be able to experience weekend of festive treats, as Burton Market Place welcomes two event to the town, one on Saturday and the other on Sunday, December 7 and December 8.
On Saturday, December 7, the popular Makers' Market will bring a range of artisan traders and live entertainment to the Market Place between 10am and 5pm.
Shoppers will also be able to head inside the Market Hall to browse stalls from an already sold out line up of local crafters and makers.
On Sunday, December 8, the Market Place will host its very first Festive Food Festival. Developed in conjunction with CJ's Events, shoppers can expect a wide range of stalls serving food and drink from home and abroad.
Families have the opportunity to get creative on Saturday, December 7, as the Brewhouse arts centre, off Union Street, hosts it annual Festive Family Funday, which also features a visit from Santa.
Children will also be able to join in the fun, as the colourful interactive show, 'Glisten', arrives at the Brewhouse from December 16 to 18.
Santa arrives in the town on Thursday, December 19, as the fun festive show, 'Santa's Christmas Countdown' comes to the Brewhouse arts centre, in Union Street.
The programme of events concludes in style on Saturday, December 21, when the UK's most authentic Rat Pack concert comes to the Brewhouse for a Christmas Party.

Economic security and opportunity
For too long, America’s economic agenda has centered on further enriching the already-rich, with massive windfalls for multinational companies, tax breaks for the wealthy, and trade deals that boost corporate profits at the expense of hard-working Americans.
As president, Cory will pursue an ambitious agenda to build an economy where everyone has a stake in its success:
- Put cash in the pockets of working Americans with the Rise Credit, a massive expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit.
- Enact “Baby Bonds,” a new American birthright to close the wealth gap and give every American a shot at economic opportunity.
- Make it easier for workers to join a union and strengthen the rights of workers.
- Raise the minimum wage to $15/hour.
- Pass the Paycheck Fairness Act and hold businesses and employers responsible for pay discrimination.
- Pass the Worker Dividend Act to require that corporations share profits not just with shareholders, but with workers.
- Only support trade deals that help working families.

Cornucopia method
Here I will describe the Cornucopia method, start from the input I feed into the method. After short introduction of the method, I put some options that might be able to enforce the [0-1] range enforcement.
Input
Given a set of sample points , we first use the predicted sharp corner to partition $\mathcal{P}$ into $m$ segments, . And I put each segment individually into the method separately, i.e. the input the cornucopia now is $S_j$.
Note that in their method, they also did the same thing, first detect corner, and partition. I just ignore the part in their method, and use our result.
Method
Cornucopia overview
Resample
Primitive Fitting - primitive candidate
With the samples, the method start to fit primitives to every subsequence samples, resulting in a set of overlapping primitives (see (c) in the overview figure). Here, all three types of primitives, including Line, Arc and Clothoid will be fitted.
| Primitive type | fitted analytic form |
|---|---|
| line | yes |
| arc | no, use approximation |
| clothoid | no, use numerical fitting |
Graph Construction
The graph is constructed as follow:
-
node : each node correspond to each fitted primitive. And we can set the node cost to allow/disallow certain type of primitive appear in the result.
-
edge : edges are constructed for every possible transition between primitives, i.e. a primitive $C$ is connected to all other primitives ${C}’$ whose starting point is sufficiently close to the end point of $C$. Edge encodes transition ($G^0$, $G^1$, or $G^2$)
Shortest Path
Perform shortest path on the graph. The output are a sequence of curve primitives and continuity constraints between them. Note that the primitives do not satisfy the constraints.
Merge Optimization
To obtain the final curve, we solve for the parameters of all parameters simultaneously, by minimizing the sum of squared distance from all samples to their curve primitives subject to continuity constraints.
Rasterize contraint enforecement ([0-1] range)
-
Ignore [0-1] constraint initially, and still fit multiple primitives as the Primitive Fitting process before. After we got those primitives, we encode the [0-1] constraints into the cost in Graph construction, and apply same shortest path to select the final output.
-
Get the output from the original method, and add a second optimization. Like the merge optimization, they did a global optimization, that consider all the primitives they got after graph optimization. We can design a optimization, with the goal as : alter the parameters as little as possible, but to obey the [0-1] range constraints.
For both approaches, we all need a metric that can measure how the primitive deviate from [0-1] range constraint. More specifically, imho, we should decide where to evaluate this constraint on the primitive. Also, for evaluating it, we might need the analytic form of every primitives.


Beware Black Friday scams
by Staff WriterMimecast has warned that Black Friday is a busy time for cybercriminals, who are using a wide variety of scams to steal money and sensitive information from shoppers.
The company said it is important that companies take appropriate measures to ensure systems and employees are protected on Black Friday.
One of the scams used by cybercriminals is fake domains and subdomains which mimic legitimate ecommerce websites.
“We discovered 4,000 suspicious Amazon domains and subdomains, and more than 100 live attacks targeting Amazon customers over 11 days in July,” said Segasec CEO Elad Schulman.
“We can assume that Amazon was unaware of these phishing scams that were targeting their customers to steal sensitive information under the brand’s name,” he said.
Black Friday Tips
Mimecast has provided 5 tips to help consumers to safeguard themselves against Black Friday scams.
- Do your shopping on a secure network – To keep your information like your name, address, credit card and devices safe, always connect to a secure network.
- Don’t click on pop-up ads. Go directly to the vendor’s website or even better, go to their app.
- Use a unique password when signing up for vendor rewards.
- Delete any amazing deals with attachments. Vendors will include their deals directly in an email, so don’t download an attachment, as it may contain malware.
- Do not forward vendor emails to your friends, family or colleagues. Have them go directly to the source.

I take some prescription meds regularly--most importantly, an SSRI antidepressant with a short 'half-life' and carbamazepine (not for seizure disorder, but for paresthesia)--so I avoided these and any OTC meds for at least 12 hours.
I'm not greatly experienced with street drugs--one strong and rather bad MJ experience many years ago, several nice MDMA trips about 12 years back, and a couple negative experiences each with DXM and nutmeg. So I was initially a little uneasy about the experience ahead, but I dealt with that. One of the DXM experiences was really awful (mentally), yet I found some confidence from having gone through that. I also asked God for protection, insight, and (if what I was about to do was wrong in some way) forgiveness and gentle correction.
This got me to feeling pretty relaxed. It was late night, and I was alone in a comfortable room of a quiet, sleeping house. I turned the lights down very low and put on some nice Baroque string music--soft and slow, and sat down on a couch so I could stretch out if I wanted. After a few minutes of this I was totally at rest mentally and physically, and without anxiety.
I wanted to be very conservative with dosage the first time. Here's how I handled it:
1) Mixed 1.5 droppers tincture with 1 dropper water, held 1/2 of that mixture under tongue for five minutes, while focusing on the music with my eyes closed. Then swallowed and waited 5 minutes.
2) I wasn't sure anything was really happening yet beyond curiosity-induced false effects--I felt my heartbeat a little strongly. So I put the remaining mixture (1/2 dropper) under the tongue and proceeded to wait another 5. I was barely into this period when I began to think the music sounded subtly different--more textured and slightly slower. That effect built by steps while I held the dose in my mouth. At the end of 5 minutes I swallowed.
3) I began another 5 minute wait, uncertain what I would do at the end of it if nothing more were to happen. That proved a moot question. Within another two minutes something more was definitely happening.
The music had taken on a slowly resonant liquidity. I seemed to perceive each note until the very last vibration, and the notes seemed much prolonged though not slower (that sounds contradictory). Imagine a silent round room with a tranquil pool of water, and a vaulted or domed ceiling above. A drop of moisture falls from the ceiling and strikes the pool. The soft 'plop' of its splash resonates smoothly around and around, from ceiling to pool surface and back, fading slowly away. Now, compare that to a single plain drip striking a hard floor. The former is how the music sounded now, and the latter is how it sounded normally. That's just about the closest I can get to a metaphor for the way the music was transformed. It was beautiful. Also, the string vibrato seemed to have an almost 3D texture.
Closely tied to the music, there gradually became apparent some lovely and at first very subtle visuals. Try to visualize (if you're mathematically inclined, and if this makes any sense) an acoustic waveform that's mapped somehow onto a closely spaced set of wiggling 2-dimensional (X and Y) curves that are placed 'side by side' along the Z axis. As time passes, new notes are struck, and old tones fade, the curves oscillate rapidly and pulsate in colors. The colors are smooth and continuously graded along each curve. Dim reddish hues and slower oscillations seem to go with lower pitches; the higher pitches have brigher oranges, blues, yellows, and (especially) greens with more rapid oscillations. It's a fascinating display.
The visuals vanish when I open my eyes, but the audio effects are only weakened a little. After a few moments I stop the music. Looking around the nearly dark room, everything seems more richly colored and sharply defined than it has any right to be. One cutout picture looks almost three dimensional. The decorations in the room, especially the old dolls and stuffed animals, sit and wait with a quiet air of expectancy, their gentle attention seemingly focused on me. A low, soft whooshing sound starts. With an amused note, I imagine it as the sound of some large but childlike and friendly monster breathing outside the house. (This is consciously imagined, mind you, but seems quite plausible). Gradually, as it slowly grows, I realize it is the sound of a jet passing far overhead. Then it langorously fades away.
Some of the experiences are definitely out of order here, but it's only because I didn't bother to keep any notes. About halfway through what turned out to be this roughly 20 minute period, I had gotten up and put the remaining .5 dropper of tincture under my tongue, undiluted.
I listen to the quietness for a few minutes, shutting my eyes again. The musical waveforms are gone. Instead I see random pinwheelings of soft yet more vivid, almost cartoonish pure colors--red, white, yellow, green, blue. This starts to fade as I lose interest.
After swallowing the last bit that was still in my mouth, I get up and go into the other room. I turn on the clock's 'Big Ben' chimes, which almost immediately sound. They are, normally, pure physical (that is, not electronic) chime tones. Now, they have the resonant liquid quality tried to describe earlier. I am able to hear the last tone of the three-quarters-hour continue for what seems to be more than a minute, right down to a last delicate oscillation. My first S. divinorum experience was just about over, and had lasted about 35 minutes, though they seemed to pass at a placid, relaxed, and yet minutely scrutinizable pace.
I go get into bed beside my sleeping wife. Though everything seems normal again it is some while before I fall asleep. Yet I rest comfortably and quietly until I do. Through the remainder of the night I have unusually vivid and realistic (but not lucid) dreams. In the morning I awake after my few hours of sleep, feeling well rested.
To sum up:
There seems to be even more peace than I had imagined in the ordinary world around me, at least in my quiet nighttime house. The expectant tranquillity in the objects around me, if seeming to be focused toward me, was only so because I was the one observing it.
Though the world is more than full enough of strife and sorrow, yet there are places of quiet, sublime harmony hiding in places that should be obvious to us but somehow aren't.
Next time:
I will stay off the meds for perhaps 24 hours and try a somewhat larger and/or undiluted dose. I know I can be more sure of my ground, starting out. I'll try a small variety of music--but nothing raucous.

Spoilers: Mysterious new couple Toby and Celeste arrive in Hollyoaks
Given the annual disasters — not to mention the recent attempted murder — which take place in Hollyoaks, we’re not sure why anyone would want to move into the village but nonetheless a brand new couple are on their way to Chester. Toby and Celeste Faroe (Bobby Gordon and Andrea Ali) arrive in the coming episodes, and they’re set to make quite the impression on several of the soap’s mainstays.
The sophisticated couple have done incredibly well for themselves, as Toby is a music producer, while Celeste runs her own modelling agency. They arrive in the village and waste little time in moving into the flat that Mitchell (Imran Adams) and Cleo (Nadine Mulkerrin) only recently took up residence in.
Upon their arrival, they quickly make friends — many of whom are in awe of the pair’s sophistication and glamour. Next door neighbours Darren (Ashley Taylor Dawson) and Mandy (Sarah Jayne Dunn) get along with the newcomers very well, and Jesse (Luke Jerdy) is delighted when Toby offers to promote his salon.
However, their true motives will soon come to light, as the pair demonstrate a rather manipulative side, and they begin to play mind games with many of their new friends.

On joining Hollyoaks, actor Bobby Gordon said: ‘My whole life I’ve been waiting for my opportunity to be on screen and I thought it was never going to happen. After having a year of ups and downs, I was given the chance and I couldn’t be more proud and excited to join the Hollyoaks team.’
‘Since joining, the crew and cast have been incredible and I still can’t believe all of the exciting things they have planned for me in the future.’
Actress Andrea Ali said: ‘Hollyoaks has truly been one the most amazing experiences The diversity of the cast and the truly relatable storylines are an honour to be a part of. From cast to crew, I couldn’t have asked to work with a better set of people!’
Toby and Celeste will arrive on screens on Thursday 28thNovember at 7pm on E4.

Rebecca won 1st place and overall highest score for her division in the Summerdanse Competition 2015 in Rochester, NY. When she was only two years old, and watching her sister in an opera, she said: "I want to dance on the stage like Rachel."
Rebecca has dreamed of dancing all her life. She's been taking ballet lessons for 11 years and she has been accepted to the incredibly competitive and prestigious Nutmeg Ballet Conservatory 2018 Summer Intensive. She is one of only 140 ballet students accepted every year from 25 States in the U.S. Her family can't afford the steep tuition for this program. If you're able to donate to this fund, you would be helping to make her dream come true.

HT Voltage Breakdowns¶
Sometimes, the high voltage of the source can break down. This disturbs the beam and should be avoided. Hence we wrote the voltage_breakdowns.py module to count how often it happens. Furthermore, as during these breakdowns the HT current makes a spark, we want to exclude data points that belong to a breakdown from the analysis, to not induce noise into the results.
During a spark the following happens: First, the voltage breaks down, from around 20000V during operation to <1000V. This can also be seen in the HT current, that typically rapidly drops to zero A, shoots up to three A, and then normalizes again. Shortly after this is registered by the system, the extraction solenoid current is ramped down to around 850A.
The voltage_breakdowns.py module provides two tools:
1. The first one, detect_breakdowns finds periods where the HT current variance exceeds a threshold in a short window. Typically, the current has a low variance, and hence the sparks above can be found reliably with this method. It marks the whole window as a breakdown, so that all these data points can be ignored in the future analysis.
2. The second one, detect_sparks, detects where exactly the the voltage broke down. If two breakdowns happened shortly after each other, method 1 would count only one breakdown, but we are interested in the exact number. This methods counts the local minima of the HT voltage that are below a certain threshold.
It is important to understand the difference between sparks and breakdowns. For this library a breakdown always marks a (short) window of very high instability of the HT current, while a spark is a precise moment in time where the voltage tripped.

classify_using_var_threshold
(values, threshold)¶ Classify values based on the variance exceeding a certain threshold
- Parameters
values (np.ndarray) – Values for which the variance is to be computed.
threshold (float) – Threshold agains which to check.
- Returns
1 if the variance is greater or equal than the threshold, 0 otherwise.
- Return type
int
-
ionsrcopt.voltage_breakdowns.
detect_breakdowns
(df, ht_current_column, window_size=40, threshold=0.5)¶ Detection of high voltage breakdown based on standard deviation exceding a certain threshold that has to be determined by experiments.
- Parameters
df (DataFrame) – The frame containing the data
column (string) – High voltage current, typically this should be ‘IP.NSRCGEN:SOURCEHTAQNI’
window_size (int) – Size of the rolling window. Once a breakdown is detected, every value in this window will be set to 1.
threshold (double) – Threshold for the standard deviation.
- Returns
For each data point that lies inside of a breakdown window, this array contains the timestamp of the start of the window, otherwise it is zero. So for each value greater that zero, all data points with the same value were in the same breakdown window.
- Return type
np.array
-
ionsrcopt.voltage_breakdowns.
detect_sparks
(ht_voltage, breakdowns, threshold=1000)¶ Detect all sparks, i.e. the number of downward peaks of the HT voltage below a certain threshold.
- Parameters
(np.array) (breakdowns) –
(np.array) – Only peaks in these windows are counted as sparks.
(float) (threshold) –
- Returns
np.array
- Return type
At each point where a spark occurred the sparks timestamp, otherwise zero.
