I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.

watch some TV show of him. It really heals me well. Or sometimes I want to be lazy, I will think like "He is

| DOSE: |
20 mg |
oral |
2C-E |
(powder / crystals) |
Before I begin, I would like to make it very clear that this was my personal experience. I can not speak for my partner who went on this trip with me. Having said that I will be including him in my report.
7:45: My husband and I each take 20mgs orally. Taking into consideration the height and weight difference between the two of us, my husband chose to iv a small amount around 30 minutes after initial dose.
8:15: I can feel a warm almost numbing sensation in my belly. I’m anticipating the come up. Looking towards to this new unknown.
8:30: The warm buzz of the come up is literally stomped out by extreme nausea. I begin to experience a very heavy/ oppressive body load which hits my back, neck, jaw and wrists like a car crash. This is immediately followed by an almost instantaneous thick and blurry visual. The combination of all of these things sent me over the edge and I found myself in the bathroom vomiting. I had hoped that this nausea would pass (as it had with my 2C-I experiences) and I could go on to enjoy the evening. This would not happen.
9:30: I have made several trips to the bathroom to vomit. At this point there is little left in my body and I have begun to dry heave. The severity of thick patterning of prisms is making it hard to focus.  I finally settle to a spot on my bed. For fear of triggering another round of sickness I lay still, and have a distinct feeling of being my own hostage. All the while my husband has been helping me through my ordeal.  He seemed to manage some enjoyment, which I was thankful to see.
12:45: I have been in bed. Waves of nausea keep threatening to send me back to the bathroom. At this point the thought of being sick again is unbearable. I’m trying to figure out the quickest way to sleeping this off.  We were confused and we both seemed hyper sensitive emotionally. My husband was having trouble telling weather or not the people in the movie were “really there”. When the movie finally had ended we both had the distinct feeling that it had consumed a little bit of our soul. We were drained. It was also around this time that all three of our cats came in and decided to lay with us. We both found this very weird…but not unwelcome. We began to dote on the awesomeness of our fuzzy our companions.
2:15: My husband has seemed to have had some interesting moments. I sadly have remained glued to the bed under waves of nausea and dizzying visuals. My husband begins to hold me and giving me some light relaxation suggestions. I guess my stress was apparent. This was hugely comforting, and I was glad that he was there to love and support me. We made nonsensical chit chat for about an hour and I finally passed out. Thank God. Sleep was fine but not nearly long enough
Conclusion: I have loads of experience with psychedelic substances from nature herself to lab created. I’ve heard of people having “bad trips” and never understood what that meant, or for that matter how that could even be possible. I have now officially had a bad trip.  I was never so happy in all my life to wake up this morning and not be on drugs. I felt compelled to share this experience…simply because after 15+ years of different substances it was 2C-E that took me to the cleaners. I will never experiment with this compound again. I will happily and peacefully stick to my beloved mother nature and 2C-I.

ThePlace: Saudi Arabia’s Najran, a city marked for its rich history
RIYADH: The Saudi Human Rights Commission (HRC) participated in the International Conference on Protecting the Rights of Migrant Workers, which was held in Katmandu and was organized by the National Committee for Human Rights of Nepal, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Friday.
HRC member Dr. Zaid bin Ali Al-Dukkan delivered a speech in which he affirmed that Saudi Arabia, under King Salman and the crown prince, is witnessing a renaissance and comprehensive, continuous development.
Al-Dukkan said the HRC is an independent body whose role is to protect and promote human rights in accordance with international standards, and to ensure that they are implemented within the provisions of Islamic law.


s;
it won't grab any paragraphs that are, say, nested inside lists
that are in turn nested inside
s.
CSS CLASSES
note: more specific code later down the CSS will override previous, more
generic code. Example:
p { font-family: Garamond;}
will be overridden by
li p { font-family: Vivaldi}
Classes are assigned to HTML elements with the word class
and an equals sign, like so:
|
Classes are identified in CSS with a dot (.), like so:
.square {
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
}
CSS IDs
IDs, on the other hand, are great for when you have
exactly one element that should receive a certain kind of styling.
IDs are assigned to HTML elements with the word id and an equals sign:
IDs are identified in CSS with a pound sign (#):
#first {
height: 50px;
}
#second {
height: 100px;
CSS PSEUDO-CLASS SELECTORS
syntax:
selector:pseudo-class_selector {
property: value;
}
example:
a:hover {
color: red;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
this makes it so when you hover your mouse over any link (a),
it turns red and bold
a:link: An unvisited link.
a:visited: A visited link.
a:hover: A link you're hovering your mouse over.
first-child
p:first-child { property: value;}
you can also use "nth-child"
p:nth-child(2) {
color: red;
}
Would turn every paragraph that is the second child of its parent element red.
CSS BORDER COMMAND WITH MULTIPLE VALUES:
border: 1px solid black;
note: you don't need to put , in between them
CSS TEXT-DECORATION: NONE
note: this removes formatting like the underline and blue on links
CSS TERMS:
MARGIN - space between element and other elements
BORDER
PADDING -space between content and border
CONTENT - text or image
TM - "top margin"
BP - "bottom padding"
LB - "left border"
etc.
CSS MARGIN PROPERTIES
margin: auto
note: this centers the object on the page
margin-top: /*some value*/
margin-right: /*some value*/
margin-bottom: /*some value*/
margin-left: /*some-value*/
You can also set an element's margins all at once:
you just start from the top margin and go around clockwise
(going from top to right to bottom to left). For instance:
margin: 1px 2px 3px 4px;
will set a top margin of 1 pixel, a right margin of 2, a bottom of 3,
and a left of 4.
format: margin: top right bottom left;
PADDING:
padding-top: /*some value*/
padding-right: /*some value*/
padding-bottom: /*some value*/
padding-left: /*some-value*/
or "padding: top right bottom left;
NEGATIVE MARGINS:
If you want to move an element in the other direction,
you can give CSS a negative value: margin-left: -20px will
move the element twenty pixels to the left.
CSS WILDCARD or "UNIVERSAL SELECTOR"
if you put "*" before the {, it will apply the property to all selectors
CSS FLOAT
pushes element to the right or left
CSS CLEAR
clear: right - will move below floating elements on the right
clear: left - will move below floating elements on the left
clear: both - will avoid left and right
CSS CENTERING
one way to do this is making the left and right margins "auto"
p {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
CSS POSITION STATIC
default setting
CSS POSITION: ABSOLUTE
positions element relative to the first parent element that doesn't have
static position
CSS POSITION: RELATIVE
tells the element to move relative to where it would have landed if
it just had the default static positioning.
CSS POSITION: FIXED
fixed positioning anchors an element to the browser window—
you can think of it as gluing the element to the screen.
If you scroll up and down, the fixed element stays put even
as other elements scroll past.
events
a click is an event
load is an event (when a site finishes loading)
properties
widths, colors etc of objects
methods
methods change the properties of an object when an event happens
CSS STYLING:
border-radius: #px - this makes your buttons or elements have rounded corners


You will need:
git clone git@github.com:{
YOUR_USERNAME }/tether.git
npm install
to install both node modules and bower componentsdist
directory and running npm run build
dist
directory that
matches the one you moved in step 4We use gulp
to facilitate things like transpilation, minification, etc. so
can you focus on writing relevant code. If there is a fix or feature you would like
to contribute, we ask that you take the following steps:
Most of the editable code lives in the src
directory while built code
will end up in the dist
directory upon running npm run build
.
Depending on how big your changes are, bump the version numbers appropriately
in bower.json
and package.json
. We try to follow semver, so a good rule
of thumb for how to bump the version is:
Versioning is hard, so just use good judgement and we'll be more than happy to help out.
NOTE: There is a gulp
task that will automate some of the versioning.
You can run gulp version:{type}
where type is patch|minor|major
to
update both bower.json
and package.json
as well as add the appropriate
git tag.

This is a lesson in bong repair, and a lesson learned the hard way. I share this to prevent similar accidents. A small party bong I owned broke, the slide cracked, my friend thought it might be a good idea to repair it with glue, and unspecific epoxy glue, as we began smoking with the bong that night with a group of about 5 people me being the last to receive it, the bong worked fine, as it got to me a took one big hit and passed, with in seconds I felt nausea and a strong light-headed feeling. I got up and excused myself from the room, the moment I stepped out side, my entire frame of reference began to shake and undulate violently, so much so that I fell over, not able to stand on ground that was moving so much, I thought I should go to my room, but I had to crawl a good 100 feet before I could gain any kind of balance, enough even to stand.
I stumbled to the elevator and by this point my vision and hearing were so altered that, as later told, I could not see or hear my close friend who happened to walk by and say hello in passing, I simply collapsed into the elevator, when I got to my room, I lay down on the couch, my vision was restored but I had what I will call enhanced sonic perception, I could hear the lights in my room, people talking down the hall, every tiny little noise seemed defining, these maladies eventually subsided, and I was left with headache the rest of the night. You see, the glue used to fix the bong had heated up after just 4 people hit it, and I got a large hit of super glue along with the cannabis. I have experimented quite a bit with psychedelic drugs, and I cant remember a time when my hearing or vision has been so uncomfortably altered.

A JUnit test assertion with a boolean literal is unnecessary since it always will eval to the same thing. Consider using flow control (in case of assertTrue(false) or similar) or simply removing statements like assertTrue(true) and assertFalse(false). If you just want a test to halt, use the fail method.
public class SimpleTest extends TestCase { public void testX() { assertTrue(true); // violation } }

Open Humans projects are diverse: they may be managed by individuals, research teams, organizations, and more. With the exception of projects managed by Open Humans Foundation directly, projects must apply for review to be “approved” on the site. This removes a user limit cap & lists it publicly on Open Humans. Projects are approved by the Open Humans community following a discussion in our Discourse .
Project leads can create this topic on their own or ask the Open Humans team to help creating the topic by emailing<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with the subject "Request for project approval". Please include a copy of your IRB approval documentation if you are requesting approval for a Study.
Projects that are already approved may undergo a re-review at any time (at the request of Open Humans Foundation, the project owner, or a member of the community).
Please vote Approve to support approval, or Deny to deny approval. Please give reasons, especially when projects have issues that they might address and/or others should be aware of.
Your vote may change if a project modifies itself in response to
concerns that are raised. If you change your vote, please edit to
add the new vote, and retain the old vote with “strikethrough”
(<s></s>
HTML tags).
Similar to Wikipedia’s approach, the final decision will not necessarily be a strict tally of votes, but should reflect a consensus formed by the discussion process.
The primary question to answer is this: "Should this project be visible and available for all Open Humans members to join?"
The above question is the primary question to consider when reviewing. Answering it may include considering the following:
While following Project Guidelines is expected of all projects, the review process is not necessarily limited to this. New situations may arise that lead the community to reconsider the guidelines themselves.
From time to time it is determined that private data may be too sensitive to be made publicly available. These determinations are made by Open Humans staff on a case by case basis.

W3schools.com is a website that provides you the basic and advance concept of programming. W3school.com provides you the definition of each points, example of code and it also lets you to practice by using your coding
When I open this website, the first point that I look at first is the top of the page, it is a header of this web page. This website is easy to understand just looking at the header, you will know clearly about the content of this website, because it shows you the short description of the whole website.
This website is really pretty, but simple. I meant it is not dark, and clearly content. For mixing the color it also great, it content well-prepared for position. Moreover, it is easy for navigate of each pages. Furthermore, it also consists with definition, example of code and practice, so it can help you for improving on your knowledge.
Please enjoy it!
Technology Today is a website that talks about technologies which we want to know and we want to study for today. It really interested website because it contains the technologies that new things and it useful for who is studying or working on IT skill. They can go throw this website to know more about any technologies.
Now I would like to a short description of it. It's appearance is not bad because the contents are not messy, and it makes to easy for navigating the content of each tip of blog. For mixing of color also looking good. When you scroll down, you will see the three of blogs of content. It make you easy to understand which blog is talking about.
But during the good points that I see, it also has some lack points that I would like to improve more, such as when you click on "More" button, it will redirect you to a new page what content the relavent text to your previous topic you have linked. For this content, I would like to put more the spacing of each blog of contents and images. One more thing, the title of the main content, I would like to put spacing on the top of it, please move it to up down just a bit move down. For the font size, I think should be bigger than this, it makes easy to viewer for reading and enjoy with their reading.
PHP.net website is also good but I do not like the some paths of it. When the first time that I opened this webpage, I was really missunderstanding, because I cound not find the point that I needed. I would like to see the definition, example or practice. If I look at the mixing the color, it is complex of mixing. Background of it so dark and for the color of text has the color is not match with the background dark. When I read this webpage, I have feeling a bit bored with that color of background and text. But it also has many good paths that I need to learn from it.
If I talk about the good points, it also has good paths as well. There are many points which mad me interested on this website as well. These good points such as well-prepared of positioning. If we look to background of the whole body and background of the content, it is good because this website seperated clearly with the content and background of body. It also easy to read for the content because it has a white background the forceground of the text is black.
Please enjoy it!

--- layout: archive title: Zulip Chat Archive permalink: /stream/113489-new-members/topic/coercion.html ---
Is there anyway to make lean display what type of coercion it is in the parser? Right now I'm working on a problem where there are coercions from int to the ring, from nat to the ring and from nat to int to the ring. It gets quite confusing when everything is displayed with jus \u.
set_option pp.all true
certainly does the job, but there may be less radical options
set_option pp.notation false #check ((2:ℕ):ℤ) -- coe 2 : int set_option pp.implicit true #check ((2:ℕ):ℤ) -- @coe nat int (@coe_to_lift nat int (@coe_base nat int int.has_coe)) 2 : int set_option pp.all true #check ((2:ℕ):ℤ) /- @coe.{1 1} nat int (@coe_to_lift.{1 1} nat int (@coe_base.{1 1} nat int int.has_coe)) (@bit0.{0} nat nat.has_add (@has_one.one.{0} nat nat.has_one)) : int -/
pp.imlicit true seems to expand most things except coercions for me:
⌊@fract α _inst_1 _inst_2 r * ↑b ^ nat.succ n⌋ * ↑b = @finset.sum ℕ ℤ (@semiring.to_add_comm_monoid ℤ int.semiring) (finset.range (nat.succ n)) (λ (x : ℕ), @digit α _inst_1 _inst_2 b r x * ↑b ^ (nat.succ n - 1 - x + 1)),
the options are cumulative
in particular, the second one is the result of both pp.notation false
and pp.implicit true
oh
This is great, thanks :)

Nurses picket Honolulu hospital in ongoing contract dispute
HONOLULU (AP) - A group of more than 50 nurses have carried picket signs near a Hawaii hospital to protest contract issues.
The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported the nurses picketed outside Straub Medical Center in Honolulu Tuesday.
The nurses have been working without a contract since Nov. 1.
The Hawaii Nurses Association representing 450 registered nurses at Straub have been picketing since Saturday.
Association President Daniel Ross says the nurses plan to continue picketing Wednesday to draw attention to what they consider a strict and punitive attendance policy.
Straub CEO Art Gladstone says parent company Hawaii Pacific Health has an equitable attendance policy.
Gladstone says the hospital has been negotiating with the association and offered a settlement providing wages and benefits consistent with other union contracts.
Negotiations are scheduled to resume Wednesday.

On the right, you will see the WMD panel (bottom) and the sever monitoring dashboard panel (top). The dashboard panel shows a real-time view of the LOCK_WAITS and LOCK_WAIT_TIME_PERCENT values.
In this step, we will use the WMD to simulate a problematic workload that would trigger the lock wait problem. Before we do that, we will first run a typical workload to get some baseline metrics. Follow these steps:
Now that you have an idea of how the metric values respond to a typical workload, let's run the problematic workload to see the differences. The workload uses the same query in step 4 to update the counter value for a particular page. Follow these steps:
When you are running the problematic workload, you should be able to observe that both LOCK_WAITS and LOCK_WAIT_TIME_PERCENT increases rapidly as the number of connections increases.

Here is a simple method of grasping a weasel by the scruff of its neck, hypnotising it, and having it do your bidding.
1. Take one weasel.
2. Grasp the weasel by the scruff of its neck and hold it so that its head is no more than a couple of inches from your eyes.
3. Stare into the eyes of the weasel while making hypnotic weaselly noises.
4. Place the weasel carefully on your floor and issue it with a command.
5. When the weasel returns from its mission, pick it up by the scruff of the neck, and repeat step 3, substituting hypnotic weaselly noises with antihypnotic weaselly noises.
6. Release the weasel.
What could be simpler than that? Indeed, the only difficulty most students find is to think up a suitable command for the hypnotised weasel to obey. Experience shows that tasks involving high-pitched squealing and savagery are likely to achieve the best results. If you are of a squeamish disposition, command the weasel to do its slashing and slaughtering in another room, or even outside, in your front garden, if you have a front garden. Try to remember that weasels will attack most effectively if set upon organisms of equal size, or smaller than themselves, although in certain circumstances they can prove lethal and terrifying pitted against larger beings, particularly if such beings are tethered to a stout post.
Advanced students may wish to attempt the grasping, hypnotising, and commanding of more than one weasel at a time.
Even more advanced students can omit steps 5 and 6, and maintain a pack of hypnotised weasels primed and ready to do their bidding in perpetuity, or until the weasels die.

Mon Jun 1, 2015
At Google I/O last week, developments in Android M (Milkshake? Macaroon?), Android Pay, Android Wear, Internet of Things, and VR all made an appearance.
However, it was Google’s advancements in machine learning that were the most impressive. The awkwardly-named “Now on Tap” in Android M exemplified these improvements nicely. Basically, Google will now offer in-context information within apps, emails, or web pages when pressing and holding the home button on your phone.
For example, if your receive a text from your wife asking you to pick up dinner, Google will offer to create a reminder. Any mention of movie titles will display links to the movie’s trailer, reviews, and other info. Restaurant names will trigger a formatted yelp review and OpenTable reservation options.
You could either marvel at the progress Google is making in artificial intelligence and machine learning, or you could be terrified by it. Either way, a healthy respect for this gargantuan digital overlord is probably wise.
But could respect ever blossom into trust? During Google I/O this year, it became clear that Google is courting us and wants to be the hub of our digital lives. It turns out that Google Plus was a misstep in that direction, so Google is trying again. From the detritus of its dismantled social network, comes the new Google Photos - a standalone version of the excellent photos management division of Google Plus.
The singular joy of Google Plus photo management was that Google offered unlimited photo and video uploads. However, photos were downsized considerably. This time around, Google is leveraging its incredible server farm assets to upload unlimited photos in their native resolution (up to a 16MP maximum).
This extremely generous cloud storage solution, coupled with seamless synchronization between a dedicated website and apps on both Android and iOS, makes Google Photos the most compelling photo management tool available today. Heck, I signed up on launch day and am still gobsmacked by how good it is.
But how far can you trust a company whose raison d’être is to sell targeted ads? I mean, photos are intensely personal - intimate snapshots of our family lives, even our secret lives.  Because that is exactly what is happening.
Google positioned its machine learning as a positive feature, and at face value it is amazing: Search for any term, such as “flowers” for example, and Google will show you all the flower pictures you’ve taken (even though you’ve never tagged them). Type in “flowers in San Diego” and Google will check geo-location data to only show you pictures of flowers you took on that trip to San Diego a few years ago. Crazy cool, right?
Google is trying to build trust here, so there is no advertising in Google Photos…yet. Targeted ads based on your photo collection does not seem far-fetched, however. In fact, it seems inevitable, especially once millions of users have invested the time and energy to curate their memories through Google’s “free” service.
Am I okay with this? Well, for the most part, I am. You’d be crazy to throw all your eggs into Google’s basket though. I am definitely keeping my photos stored locally as well. And it’s not as if I haven’t made forays into photo cloud storage. I tried Flickr’s redesigned photo service (offering a healthy 1 terabyte), but it’s just not as good. I didn’t even read Yahoo’s small print, which is probably horrifying.
The main reason I’m okay with all of this is that I just don’t care if a machine is looking at my pictures. It would be different if, you know - an actual person - was ogling at my candid selfies. I’m sure a lot of people feel the same way. And so millions of us will feed data into the machine. That machine will only get smarter and smarter. So, what happens when that machine knows us better than we know ourselves? An interesting question, but I’m having too much fun organizing my pictures to think too much about it right now.


This has my configuration files for emacs. It includes a lot of customization type stuff that I liked or stubled across. The configuration file is written then compiled with org-babel, which combines the mark-up language org-mode with elisp code (and other code if required).
The configuration file, named loader.org, that is loaded in the init of emacs is actually concatenated with the readme so that it is on the front page of the github repository. Feel free to visit my github to get more info.


Lata Mangeshkar’s photos from her recovery go viral as she returns home hale and hearty
by TIMESOFINDIA.COMAfter battling with Pneumonia for almost a month, legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar was discharged from the hospital on Sunday.
Soon, social media was flooded with messages for Didi and she even thanked them for their wishes and love through her account. She tweeted, "For the past 28 days, I was at Breach Candy hospital. I was diagnosed with pneumonia. The doctors preferred that I extend my stay in the hospital and go home when completely healthy. "Today, I am back home with the blessings of Mai and Baba I have my deepest gratitude to all my well-wishers all over. Your prayers and good wishes have worked and I humbly bow down to each one of you."
Now, an Instagram fan page of the singer has shared the pictures of her recovery where we can see he nurses of the hospital posing with Didi as she got discharged from the hospital.
Check out the pictures here:
For the unversed, she was rushed to the Breach Candy Hospital on November 11 after she complained of difficulty in breathing.
The iconic singer celebrated her 90th birthday on September 28 this year.
She has been honoured with India's highest civilian honour Bharat Ratna in 2001. Along with that, Didi has recorded songs in over 36 Indian languages.
Born on September 28, 1929, she has also been honoured with Dadasaheb Phalke Award and France's highest civilian award, Officer of the Legion of Honour, besides numerous national and international awards.

To perform the default build of Berkeley DB, first change to the build_unix directory, and then enter the following two commands:
../dist/configure makeThis will build the Berkeley DB library. To install the Berkeley DB library, enter:
make install
See below for specific information on what files are installed and in what directories, and how to configure installation on a per-system basis.
If you want to rebuild DB, enter:
make clean make
If you change your mind about how Berkeley DB is configured, you must start from scratch by entering:
make distclean ../dist/configure make
To build multiple UNIX versions of Berkeley DB in the same source tree, create a new directory at the same level as build_unix, and then configure and build.
mkdir build_bsdos3.0 cd build_bsdos3.0 ../dist/configure make
Java support cannot be built using the configuration options. To configure and build the Java API, see the file db/java/README for more information.
If you have trouble with any of these commands, please send email to the addresses found in the Sleepycat Software contact information. In that email, please provide a complete copy of the commands that you entered and their output.
There are many options that you can enter to the configuration program, only a few of which are Berkeley DB specific. To see a complete list of the options, enter ../dist/configure --help.
The Berkeley DB specific options are as follows:
--enable-cxx:
--enable-debug:
--enable-diagnostic:
--enable-compat185:
--enable-dump185:
The system libraries with which you are loading the dump_185 utility MUST already contain the Berkeley DB 1.85 library routines for this to work, as the Berkeley DB distribution does not include them. If you are using a non-standard library for the Berkeley DB 1.85 library routines, you will have to change the Makefile that the configuration step creates to load the dump_185 utility with that library.
--enable-test:
--disable-bigfile:
You can specify a compiler and/or compile and load time flags by using environment variables during configuration. For example, if you want to use a specific compiler, specify the CC environment variable before running configure:
Using anything other than the native compiler will almost certainly mean that you'll want to check the compile and load line flags, too.
To specify debugging and optimization options for the C compiler, use the CFLAGS environment variable:
To specify header file search directories and other miscellaneous options for the C preprocessor and compiler, use the CPPFLAGS environment variable:
To specify debugging and optimization options for the C++ compiler, use the CXXFLAGS environment variable:
To specify miscellaneous options for the linker, use the LDFLAGS environment variable:
If the Tcl or any other include files or libraries are in non-standard places on your system, you will need to specify the directory path where they can be found.
If you want to specify additional libraries and library directories, set the LIBS environment variable before running configure. For example:
would specify two additional directories to search for libraries, /a/b and /e/f, and one additional library to load, "posix".
Make sure that you prepend -L to any library directory names and that you prepend -I to any include file directory names! Also, make sure that you quote the arguments as shown above, i.e. with single or double quotes around the values you're specifying for LIBS, if they contain blank or tab characters.
The env command is available on most systems, and simply sets one or more environment variables before running a command. If the env command is not available to you, you can set the environment variables in your shell before running configure. For example, in sh or ksh, you could do:
and in csh or tcsh, you could do:
See your shell's manual page for further information.
Berkeley DB installs the following files into the following locations, with the following default values:
| Variables | Default value |
|---|---|
| prefix | /usr/local |
| bindir | $(prefix)/BerkeleyDB/bin |
| includedir | $(prefix)/BerkeleyDB/include |
| libdir | $(prefix)/BerkeleyDB/lib |
| mandir | $(prefix)/BerkeleyDB/docs |
| File(s) | Default location |
| db.h, db_cxx.h, db_185.h | $(includedir) |
| libdb.a | $(libdir) |
| utilities | $(bindir) |
| documentation | $(mandir) |
To move the entire installation tree to somewhere besides /usr/local, change the value of prefix. To move the binaries to a different place, change the value of bindir. The values of includedir, libdir and mandir may be similarly changed. These values can be changed as part of configuration:
or when doing the install itself:
Note, the installation process will attempt to create any directories that do not already exist on the system.

It was my first dance with a synthetic psychedelic. I stared at the small, questionable perforation in front of me, wrapped tightly in foil, where it remained for an occasion such as today. As I slipped the blotter onto my tongue, I began preparations for the night.
Still absorbing the effects of the LSD, I ran downstairs to begin filling up a gallon of water. The paper in my mouth was drenched, and I waited for what seemed like five or six minutes for it to dissipate. I told a few close friends to come by if they felt so inclined, and as I waited, I began to feel a bit of a shift. I've taken psilocybin before, but this was different. The LSD seemed to stabilize itself far more quickly than the varying degrees one feels when on mushrooms; The drug also showed signs of a longer trip, and although a bit tired, I could tell sleep would be out of the question for countless hours.
It was at this point that I received a phone call from some friends of mine. They entered my room and proposed that I take vitamin C, which supposedly enhances colors, and visuals by proxy. Without fully understanding the make or meaning of the encapsulated vitamin, I took it, and could have sworn it was boring a hole in my tongue. In retrospect, obviously the acidic qualities of the pill were irritating my tongue, but I wasn't sure what I wanted. As time passed, I realized I wasn't sure what I needed. Do I want water? Am I thirsty? Is my mouth dry? Is my stomach full? Too much or too little?
My guests wanted to give my bong, The Smoking Barrel, 2.5 feet of uninhibited contraband, a test drive. As I pulled the bong from my room, I began to question whether I should smoke. In the past, when I had smoked on psychedelics, it seemed to intensify the trip, yet at the same time it somehow took a bit of the edge off. The bong went around the room, and finally after everyone had passed the glass, it was my turn. I took it not only once, but on its second time around as well. It was time to play the waiting game. Suddenly, nothing looked familiar. All previous memories seemed insignificant, almost non-existent.
'Oh man, I've been HERE before'.
I could answer simple questions in my own mind, such as my friends' names, and who everyone was and their place in my circle, but only if I decided to fixate myself on the answer. I grounded myself and walked to the other side of my room, where I proceeded to flip a quarter. I swear I flipped it three times before I finally saw that it wasn't a double headed coin, and at this point, I decided it may be time to stop standing at a fork in the road.
It seemed like the best possible time to make a phone call and help make a decision as to what to make of the bounty on my plate. It was settled that the best possible decision was to go outside. Each tree, plant or star seemed to be the physical expression of its mathematical algorithm, as if somehow, programmed into reality. It was blistering cold, and all I could think was, 'This is the worst mistake that could turn into the best decision I've ever made'.
Once I melded into ego-death, I lost everything, including my identity, my mind, and my old set of eyes. What I gained is questionable. It's a shame, I had the answers, and I understood the questions, because I was one with a core singularity of sorts. I'd like to explain, but first I need you to strap on your boots, because the high road isn't paved. The sound of the natural world around me seemed to reverberate with an odd electronic sound and sensation. Since I had experienced ego death, I was walking around in this dark, cold abyss, with the innocence of a lost child.
Two mindsets were fighting over control of my mind. One fundamental idea was, that I was a human being with 18 years of memories and experiences that had consumed a psychedelic substance. Obviously this part of my mind seemed to be undergoing renovations. As I now saw it, the psychedelic seemed to be a mnemonic device placed within reality to wake me up, but not me in the ego sense, me as a nameless singularity.
My feet felt as if they were magnetized, as the concrete seemed to pull me at its own discretion. I began to think of my previous trips, and I realized, that fundamentally, returning to center was the rationalization of the journey. A single word needn't be uttered or written, and in retrospect, the experience is always pivotal to mental, emotional, and spiritual faculties. Just as I had said this to myself, I looked up, to find myself standing in front of my house, with the door open and the lights on. The sun was beginning to come up. I entered my home, locked the door behind me, and as I entered my room, I 'fell asleep', only to fall asleep.

10 August 2010 - As of 30 July 2010, the Ministry of Health in Peru confirmed a total of 17 cases of plague in Ascope province of Department La Libertad. Of these, four are pneumonic plague, 12 are bubonic plague and one was septicemic plague. The onset of symptoms for the last reported case of pneumonic plague was on 11 July 2010. During the investigations, 10 strains of Y. pestis were isolated from humans, rodents and domestic cats.
The control measures being implemented include insect control in households located in high risk areas, strengthening of disease surveillance and case management, contact tracing, and sensitization of the affected population.
WHO is working with the Ministry of Health in assisting La Libertad with the outbreak investigation and response activities in affected areas and the surrounding districts.

We read a little for our remote first aid class.


Class of objects that store a set of values with associated weight values so that these values are arranged in the descending order of weight.
The values are stored like in the OrderedSet
class, but the values are sorted in descending order of weight.
This class is useful for implementing priority queues with no repeated values and which priorities are comparable values like numbers or strings.
Each instance holds an additional table containing the priority of each value inserted in the queue that are used to keep the values properly sorted.
contains(value)
value
is inserted in the queue or false otherwise.
dequeue()
empty()
enqueue(value, priority)
value
to the queue just before the value with priority larger than priority
.
value
is returned if successfully added.
If value
is already inserted then the call has no effect and no value is returned.
head()
remove(value [, start])
value
and removes it from the queue starting the search after the value of start
.
If start
is not provided the search is done through the entire set.
The removed value and its priority are returned or no value is returned if value
is not found.
priority(value)
value
inserted in the queue.
tail()
PriorityQueue = require "loop.collection.PriorityQueue" queue = {} PriorityQueue.enqueue(queue, "first", 1) PriorityQueue.enqueue(queue, "enqueue", 2) PriorityQueue.enqueue(queue, "head", 3) for word in PriorityQueue.sequence(queue) do io.write(word, " ") end

A classic ploy of Heroes and Villains alike for gaining access to their target who is staying at a hotel is to pose as room service personnel. Can turn into a gag if the subject becomes suspicious because they didn't order room service, especially if they are staying at a low-end establishment that clearly doesn't offer room service in the first place.
A more sensible ploy could be to pretend to be housekeeping staff. Other kinds of services may also be impersonated, such as escort services, depending on where they're staying and other circumstances.
Outside of a hotel setting, this type of ruse is a form of Delivery Guy Infiltration.
Also see Deadly Delivery and Ransacked Room.
Examples:
- The Bubblegum Crisis episode "Double Vision" did this three times.
- A random post-credits sequence in School Rumble (not quite The Tag in that it had absolutely nothing to do with the episode) had Akira foil just such a plan. The whole thing is rendered in a faux-3-D art style.
- This trope is used once in Gunslinger Girl, where some of the girls dress as room maids of a high-class hotel in order to kill a mark staying there. It works fine, until one of them bumps into an actual employee, leading to a Shoot the Dog moment. This is quite odd, considering that the girls look far too young to work in such an environment in the first place.
- In Fatal Fury 2: The New Battle, Joe Higashi uses this approach to try and ambush Krauser, who has beaten the living hell out of his best friend Terry Bogard and left him a psychological wreck. Krauser of course recognizes him.
"The hotel thinks of everything. Why, they have even provided an assassin with room service."
- In the first episode of K, HOMRA does this to the gangsters' hotel room with a pizza delivery guy disguise.
- In Chaos! #3, Evil Ernie poses as pizza delivery guy to gain access to Lt. Brandon Green's home and wipe out him and his minders.
- In a benign example, in The Keys Stand Alone: The Soft World the anti-contract faction among the Svenjaya contact John and Paul by having one of them (who really is a hotel porter) go up to their hotel room with a welcome basket of fruit. Paul wonders if the porter is planning to wreak havoc once he gets into the room, but decides he can handle havoc and lets the fellow in.
- Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd attempted to deliver some Room Disservice to James Bond on a cruise liner in Diamonds Are Forever. (They failed.)
- At the very end of From Russia with Love, Rosa Klebb's last gambit to kill Bond and steal the McGuffin is to disguise herself as a hotel maid. (She fails.)
- This scene was parodied in Austin Powers. Fails when Oddjob-parody Random Task's shoe-throwing is shown to be a completely ineffective means of fighting.
- In Die Another Day a Chinese agent poses as a Masseuse. (She fails but lives because she's not there to kill Bond, only to find out what he's doing in Hong Kong.)
- Rather incompetently carried out by Rocco in The Boondock Saints: someone else got there first, he hid his gun in the most obvious place on the cart, he brought a six-shot .38 revolver because his bosses didn't tell him there were nine guys instead of the two he'd been told about (though you'd think he'd be smart enough to bring extra ammunition), and he didn't even bother to tie his hair back to make himself look respectably like a room service attendant. Not to mention, his name tag says Jaffar, and Rocco doesn't look remotely Middle Eastern.
- The film Point of No Return (aka The Assassin) has a sequence where the protagonist is required to pose as a room service waitress and deliver a trolley with a bomb planted on it to a hotel room.
- In the original French movie Nikita it's just a bug.
- In Kill Bill Vol. 2, a flower delivery woman comes to The Bride's hotel room. When The Bride goes to open the door, the florist shoots through the door, revealing herself to be an enemy assassin.
- In Grosse Pointe Blank Grocer refers to a couple of female assassins as "Queens of the hotel hit."
- White Sands (1992). The protagonist arrives at his motel to find the room being cleaned by two maids.
- This is how one of the hitman's assassination attempts goes in Bulworth.
- Layer Cake has a darkly amusing scene in which the protagonist has arranged a hotel room to have a sexual encounter with his love interest. Right before things "start off" he gets a knock on the door from room service, who turn out to be employees of the Magnificent Bastard of the film, who proceed to stuff him into a bag and kidnap him.
- Done on the spur of the moment in Notting Hill to cover up an affair. The hero explains his lack of uniform by saying he'd already changed to go home, then decided to take one last call.
- Lampshaded in Traffic when the breakfast service knocks on the door and, when prompted about who they are, respond with "The Mob." Subsequently played straight when it turns out to be a Sarcastic Confession, and the breakfast was poisoned. The real breakfast service shows up moments later, but too late.
- In Ocean's Thirteen, this trope is employed as part of an attempt to ruin Bank's new casino. They sneak into a prestigious reviewer's room while he's out and do all sorts of nasty things to the room, placing bedbugs in the bed, dirtying things, and feeding noxious gases into the vents.
- Commando. Matrix has just killed Sully and is searching his room when badass villain Cooke arrives outside. Cindy answers the door with her shirt open and a coy smile, claiming she's "Room service" (implying she's an escort). Cooke is suspicious and makes her stand back from the door, but still misses Matrix hiding behind it.
- Lampshaded, attempted, and subverted in Lethal Weapon 2 in rapid succession, wherein Riggs and Murtaugh give Leo Getz hell about answering the door, an apparent room service cart comes in and the waiter tries to go for Leo but is stopped via Destination Defenestration
- Played with in Assassins. When room service calls at the room that Rath and Electra are staying in, he points his gun at the closed door, obviously well aware of this tactic, but Electra confirms that she did actually order room service.
Rath: You should tell me these things!
- In Adele Hasn't Had Her Dinner Yet, two minions of the villain disguise themselves as room service in order to get access to the protagonist's room and the plant "Adele" therein.
- In The Tournament, Tomoko poses as a bellboy and delivers room service to Lai Lai's hotel room. This is a distraction to allow him to sneak in via the balcony.
- At the end of Judas Kiss, Coco kills Junior by posing as a waitress and shooting him on the beach at a resort in Mexico.
- Heroes did it too, when Hiro and Ando infiltrate a hotel room in order to retrieve a woman's bag.
- Alias: Sydney Bristow has done this on at least one occasion.
- Inversion: In an episode of Kolchak: The Night Stalker, Carl Kolchak is waiting nerve-wracked in his hotel room with a cross in one hand and a sharp oak stake in the other to jump the vampiress call-girl he's been hunting for days as she comes through the door (which has a cross drawn on its inside in lipstick!). It turns out that the pimp substituted another girl at the last minute, and Hilarity Ensues.
- Played with in an episode of NCIS where Tony and Ziva are required to go undercover as married assassins. Since they're being watched by the villains, their own agents surreptitiously drop off necessary surveillance equipment in the guise of room service.
- In the same episode, a pretty female FBI agent does the same thing disguised as a maid, much to Tony's appreciation.
- Used with spectacular non-success by Weasel on an episode of Family Matters when Eddie, Weasel, and Waldo wanted to meet a pop star.
- In the early '70s Saturday Night Live, a recurring sketch was the Landshark, a huge shark that tried to get into people's apartments by knocking on the door and saying, "Uh, candygram..."
- During a Discovery Channel documentary on (actual) Ninja, some individuals were asked to act as bodyguards and "protect" a target (prevent his cap from being taken off) and were told that the attacker would strike like a ninja of antiquity would. He disguises himself as a set maintenance personnel to get through the bodyguards. Though at first they're reluctant to let him in but he succeeds in the end.
- In I Love Lucy, Lucy does this several times on their trip to Hollywood to get close to celebrities.
- Two and a Half Men: Rose did this to Charlie once. Notable as she had to fly in from England to do it.
- An episode of The Fall Guy had Colt going after a bounty who will not leave his house for anything. After talking to the law enforcement official who had been watching the house and finding out the guy has been subsisting on takeout delivery, Colt goes up to the front door, posing as a pizza delivery guy (he just happened to have a pizza box in his truck). Subverted in that the guy loudly yells "I DIDN'T ORDER A PIZZA!" before charging out the house and attacking Colt. Fortunately for him, Colt won the fight because the pizza box contained a barbell weight.
- Played with in the Mission: Impossible episode "The Town"; a group of enemy agents plan to use this trope to assassinate an Iron Curtain defector but are stopped when the IMF impersonate their leader and call off the hit.
- In the Get Smart episode "Survival of the Fattest", Arab Oil Sheikh Prince Sully is kidnapped by Mary Armstrong, a KAOS agent who is the world's strongest female secret agent. Disguised as a hotel chambermaid, she brings a refrigerator into his hotel room, knocks him unconscious, and smuggles him out in it.
- Murder, She Wrote: In "Tinker, Tailor, Liar, Thief", a thuggish Loan Shark forces his way into Jessica's hotel room by posing as room service.
- Preacher. Played with in the episode "Sundowner". Fiore, DeBlanc and Jesse are hiding in a hotel room from the Seraphim. There's a knock on the door.
DeBlanc: Probably just... the towels.[Fiore looks through peephole, then closes his eye in resignation]Fiore: It's not. [Seraphim shoots him through the peephole]
- The Magician: Used by a hitman to gain access to Max's hotel room in "The Manhunters".
- In the Decoy episode "The Phoner," Casey orders groceries delivered to the apartment where she's staying. Unfortunately for her, the delivery man turns out to be the rapist she's trying to catch.
- In the mini-series Brotherhood of the Rose, a maid walks in on the protagonist Saul as he's struggling with a hitman in a hotel room. She produces a silenced pistol and tries to shoot Saul, but only hits her compatriot (in the original novel she's just an Innocent Bystander).
- In Downton Abbey, a Honey Trap claims to be delivering tea as a ploy to get photographed leaving Atticus Aldridges hotel room as part of Roses mothers attempt to sabotage their marriage. It happens right after his Stag Party, so hes drunk enough to fall for it.
- Used by the good guys early in the Star Wars New Jedi Order series. A New Republic Intelligence operation on what's basically a cruise liner in space, a mock conversation between passengers and an attendant is used as the recognition code.
- Ciaphas Cain: In the short story The Little Things, a gang of kidnappers has targeted a young noblewoman and plans to get their hands on her by substituting for the room service waiters. Unfortunately for them, the "noblewoman" was one of Inquisitor Vail's undercover identities, and that room service order was for a romantic dinner between her and Cain. It didn't go well for them.
- With this trope in mind, Able Team nearly shoots a couple of hotel employees when they barge into their hotel in Sri Lanka without knocking. They quickly hide their guns and help them unload the food trolley.
- In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All, the assassin De Killer gets into his target's room disguised as a bellboy delivering tomato juice.
- In Girl Genius, someone almost managed to assassinate an injured Baron Wulfenbach by pretending to be a nurse.
- Archer:
- Subverted in ''Training Day": Archer, while explaining the Chekhov Gun, gives Cyril a hypothetical scenario of being in a Caribbean bungalow, getting high with an exotic woman who may or may not be an assassin when room service arrives with champagne (implied to an incident in Archer's career).
Archer: Who ordered champagne?Cyril: How should I know?Archer: Exactly! You're baked! You can't remember!  I guess that could happen.Archer: Point is, you come out of the john waving this around, nobody's gonna bug you for a tip.
- In "Swiss Miss", Archer must guard a German billionaire's daughter, Anka (who keeps making sexual advances at him). A terrorist bursts in, disguised as room service. Archer uses an aerosol spray and a candle to set the terrorist on fire.
- Subverted in ''Training Day": Archer, while explaining the Chekhov Gun, gives Cyril a hypothetical scenario of being in a Caribbean bungalow, getting high with an exotic woman who may or may not be an assassin when room service arrives with champagne (implied to an incident in Archer's career).
- Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!: In "Go Away, Ghost Ship," Scooby, Fred, and Daphne hide in a service cart while Shaggy and Velma are dressed as a high rise penthouse room service so they can get in to see a troubled shipping magnate.

Configuring a Satellite
The satellite needs to know two things about the Hub:
- Hub's email address (even if the Hub doesn't actually use email)
- Network path (UMC name, for instance \\HUBMACHINE\CODECOOP), under which the Hub shares its public inbox (by default it's the directory c:\co-op\PublicInbox on the Hub's computer) You can browse the network to find the Hub machine and select its share. The share name is CODECOOP.
This concludes your satellite configuration.
If your Code Co-op has problems copying scripts on the LAN, see troubleshooting network connections.

gretty {
// ...
contextConfigFile = 'someFile.xml'
// ...
}
"tomcat-context.xml" is an optional Tomcat file that configures individual web-app.
The purpose and syntax of "tomcat-context.xml" is documented at Tomcat reference.
Gretty recognizes and supports "tomcat-context.xml". As soon as Gretty finds existing "tomcat-context.xml" file, it reads the file and uses it to configure tomcat web-app. Even if "tomcat-context.xml" is not found, Gretty still works.
By convension Gretty looks for the file name "tomcat-context.xml". You can (but you don’t have to) change the file name by specifying property "contextConfigFile" in Gretty configuration:
gretty {
// ...
contextConfigFile = 'someFile.xml'
// ...
}
If contextConfigFile is not specified, Gretty looks for one of the files: "tomcat8-context.xml" (for Tomcat 8), "tomcat7-context.xml" (for Tomcat 7), "tomcat-context.xml", "context.xml" in the directory "$project.webAppDir/META-INF". Tomcat version is defined by gretty.servletContainer property.
If explicitly defined contextConfigFile represents an absolute path, gretty will use just that.
If explicitly defined contextConfigFile represents a relative path, gretty tries to resolve it in the following directories:
"$project.projectDir/webapp-tomcat"
"$project.projectDir/webapp-config"
recursively in the abovementioned folders of the overlay sources (if any)
When you generate a product and "tomcat-context.xml" resides within "$project.webAppDir/META-INF", it is packed to the WAR-file. The running product automatically finds and applies "META-INF/tomcat-context.xml" of each included web-app.
When you generate a product and "tomcat-context.xml" resides within "webapp-tomcat" or "webapp-config", the file is copied to subdirectory "conf/$projectName" and referenced in "conf/server.json". The running product automatically applies "tomcat-context.xml" files listed in "conf/server.json".
Gretty sources contain example programs demonstrating support of "tomcat-context.xml" at work:

APC condemns post-election violence, killing in Kogi
by Agency ReportThe All Progressives Congress has condemned the post-election violence reported in Kogi State, which led to the death of a Peoples Democratic Party woman leader, Salome Abuh; and destruction of property.
The party, in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Lanre Issa-Onilu, in Abuja on Wednesday, condoled with the family of the deceased and others affected by the post-election violence.
Issa-Onilu, who quoted the state Police Command as saying that the killing was as a result of a reprisal attack, urged Kogi people to ensure that the violence is not allowed to escalate.
SEE ALSO: We’ve expelled students in sex video –Babcock
“We are aware that Governor Yahaya Bello has already directed law enforcement agencies to fish out the perpetrators.
“The APC abhors violence and other criminality which, sadly, have continued to plague our election process.
“We urge people to see election as a democratic contest and not a do-or-die for which we should pay with our lives.
“We pray that the culprits are caught and the full weight of the law brought to bear on them.
“President Muhammadu Buhari has advised those who are not satisfied with the results of the governorship elections in Kogi and Bayelsa to seek redress in court and shun violence.
“We must all heed this call,” the APC spokesman said.

The order of id parts should be from more specific, to less specific, i.e. in reverse order (so that deriving classes can easily append their own parts). The architecture shouldn't be specified in the id, as two ABIs from different architectures should never met.
A good start whould be to use:
specific; compiler; os; vendor
Example: "*exit"; "gnueabi"; "linux"; "unknown"
Will encode an ABI of exit
family of functions for ARM linux
gnueabi. The recommended printing format for the ABI is to
append the arch name and print all constituents of the name from
right to left, using "-" symbol as a separator.
In any case, the meaning of the identifier is specific to a
particular family of ABIs, that are, usually inherit the same
parent or set of parents.

 So, it comes as no surprise that he would have a great interview on the site with Mr. Darnielle, the day Heretic Pride comes out. I had to avoid reading all of it because I want to have a mostly unsullied-by-reviews reaction to it, but I surely will come back to it later. A favorite part:
SM: "In the Craters on the Moon" talks about "the end of a long war," but it's not a political song...
JD: THANK YOU SAM DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY INTERVIEWERS THINK THIS IS A POLITICAL SONG BECAUSE IT HAS THE WORD "WAR" IN IT. I love everybody but seriously people a signpost doesn't always indicate a road.

So, for a while now I've been referring to my "Big Three" of favorite bands: The Hold Steady, The Mountain Goats, and Wilco.
I think it's safe to say I narrowed it down to one.

It should go without saying that we did, too.

Reflections on Musical Gluttony
According to a recent Seattle Weekly article, in November Google VP Sukhinder Singh Cassidy "predicted that by the year 2015, a storage device the size of an iPod will be able to hold 4 terabytes. In seven years, every song ever recorded in the world will fit in our pockets." Now, this doesn't say "and that will totally be an affordable device for the typical consumer," but then again, it's also possible that we're going to be all Shadowrun-ned up with chips in our head. For perspective, keep in mind that blogs as a phenomenon (rather than just a sort of niche market) didn't exist seven years ago. The article goes on to talk about a few things, such as: --having a ton of choice leads to being dissatisfied (sort of a grass is greener approach -- if you could torrent a new yard) --this glut will lead to a transition from actively choosing to just picking from what's readily available, and --this leads to an over-reliance on filters (top 40 lists, trusted music sites, social network sites) to give leads on what to choose (or pick). The writer even astutely notes, "I now find myself getting bored, even in the middle of songs, because I can." What's really intriguing for me, though, is this idea that too much choice still means too much.


MGImageUtilities 0.0.1 Reference
MGImageUtilities
This is a demo project (for iPhone, but the code will work just fine on iPad too) showing two categories on UIImage, as described below.
UIImage+ProportionalFill
This category lets you resize an arbitrary image to fit into an arbitrary size, using one of four resizing methods:
- Scale: scales the image proportionally to fit entirely into the required size.
- Crop: scales the image proportionally to completely fill the required size, cropping towards its center. This is the most useful method.
- Start: as for Crop, but crops towards the “start” of the image (the top or left, depending on relative aspect ratios).
- End: as for Crop, but crops towards the “end” of the image (the bottom or right, depending on relative aspect ratios).
This is very useful for caching on-screen-sized versions of images, and generating appropriate images for use on a Retina Display. The category will do the right thing based on the image’s orientation metadata, and the scale factor of the device’s main screen (i.e. it’ll look sharp on high-resolution devices like an iPhone 4).
UIImage+Tint
This category takes an image (presumably flat and solid-coloured, like a toolbar icon), and fills its non-transparent pixels with a given colour. You can optionally also specify a fractional opacity at which to composite the original image over the colour-filled region, to give a tinting effect.
This is very useful for generating multiple different-coloured versions of the same image, for example ‘disabled’ or ‘highlighted’ states of the same basic image, without having to make multiple different-coloured bitmap image files.
License
The license for the code is included with this project; it’s basically a BSD license with attribution.
I can’t answer any questions about how to use the code, but I always welcome emails telling me that you’re using it or just saying thanks. I hope you find it useful!
Cheers,

Yes, you should be using git-flow
I’ve been talking a lot about git these days, and I still have a few articles to do about it. With that in mind today I’m here to talk to you a bit about git-flow.
Once again, I’m not here to re-invent the wheel. If someone has good articles about something I’m going to point you there during this process.
What is git-flow?
In early 2010, Vincent Driessen wrote an article called …A successful Git branching model“ which recommended an approach called git-flow to use git branches in your development cycle. The idea was to standardise branching and merging when developing features, handling releases and managing hot fixes, in order to be consistent and gain the advantages of git’s ‘branchy’ development model. Using many separate branches in Git gives you lots of flexibility, but it can get complex. Adopting a standardised approach has many advantages:
- Keep your repository tidier
- Keep your procedures clearer
- Move between projects more easily with familiar branch structures
- Get new developers up to speed more quickly
in: sourcetreeapp.com
Summary of the concept
Development branch (usually called ‘develop’) This is your main development branch where all the changes destined for the next release are placed, either by directly committing small changes or by merging other branches (e.g. feature branches) into this branch. Production branch (usually called ‘master’) This branch represents the latest released / deployed codebase. Only updated by merging other branches into it.
Feature branches (usually prefixed with ‘feature/’)When you start work on anything non-trivial, you create a feature branch. When finished, you’ll merge this branch back into the development branch to queue it for the next release. Release branches (usually prefixed with ‘release/’)When you’re about to package a new release, you create a release branch from the development branch. You can commit to it during your preparation for a release, and when it’s ready to be deployed, you merge it into both the development branch and the master branch (to indicate that the release has been deployed). Hotfix branches (usually prefixed with ‘hotfix/’) If you need to patch the latest release without picking up new features from the development branch, you can create a hotfix branch from the latest deployed code in master. Once you’ve made your changes, the hotfix branch is then merged back into both the master branch (to update the released version) and the development branch (to make sure the fixes go into the next release too)
How to use git-flow?
After installing git-flow, you can start a new repository in the current directory or convert an existing one to the new branch structure:
$ git flow init
It will ask you a bunch of questions, but you probably want to accept the default values:
No branches exist yet. Base branches must be created now.
Branch name for production releases: [master]
Branch name for "next release" development: [develop]
How to name your supporting branch prefixes?
Feature branches? [feature/]
Release branches? [release/]
Hotfix branches? [hotfix/]
Support branches? [support/]
Version tag prefix? []
Now, simply use Git like you’re used to, but only work on some small features in the develop branch. If you need to work on a bigger feature, just create a feature branch based on develop. Let’s say you want to add a login page:
$ git flow feature start login
This will create a new branch called feature/login, based on our develop branch and switches to it. Commit away and after you finish working on the login page, simply finish it:
$ git flow feature finish login
It’ll merge feature/login back to develop and delete the feature branch.
When you’re feature complete, simply start a release branch â€” again, based on develop â€” to bump the version number and fix the last bugs before releasing:
$ git flow release start v0.1.0
When you finish a release branch, it’ll merge your changes to master and back to develop, so you don’t have to worry about your master being ahead of develop.
The last thing that makes git-flow awesome is it’s ability to handle hotfixes. You start and finish a hotfix branch like anything else, but it’s based on master so you can quickly fix it when something’s broken production and merge it back to master and develop using finish.
Tutorial by: Jeff Kreeftmeijer
This article is basically a roundup. Because I found there was none “small” article that shows both the theory behind git-flow and the actual use of it.
For a more information about this check this article.
Also, if you don’t want to use git-flow per say, at least use the branching logic behind it.

Red Canyon
Squeezing inside this deep, narrow canyon reveals a festival of desert colors.
by ErezSpeiserThe Eilat Mountains begin just a few minutes outside the busy seaside resort town of Eilat. It’s hard to imagine a more striking contrast between the concrete hotel blocks and the dramatic desert landscape just behind it. The most striking feature of the Eilat Mountains is the variety of rock formations and colors.
The colors change radically from black to white, yellow, red, and purple, creating a festival of colors. This color pallet is spread over craggy rock formations, some of which are very special.
The best way to enjoy this landscape is by hiking the Red Canyon. The highlight of this relaxed three-mile (five-kilometer) hike is the section that passes through the gorge, where you’ll squeeze between nearly 100-foot-tall (30 meters) walls made of reddish-colored Nubian Sandstone.
At some spots, the width narrows down to less than three feet (one meter). At times, you’ll need to use metal ladders and surf down a natural slide created by the smooth-faced rocks.
Know Before You Go
The Red Canyon trailhead can be reached also with public bus #392 from Eilat central bus station. It's a natural reserve, but there is no admission fee and is open 24 hours. Camping is allowed in a designated area near the parking lot.
This short hike has it all. It's great fun for kids, but its unique natural beauty will also appeal to experienced hikers. Avid photographers will get fantastic opportunities for some spectacular shots.

Persona Clustering Methodology
In the following plots we display the findings from applying the k-means clustering method to the data we were provided by Vodafone. Tourists were clustered based on traits extracted from both their behaviours during their journeys in Tuscany and the nature of the locations they visited.
For examples, from the Vodafone data, we extracted the starting and ending locations of their trips, how long they spent at every stop, where they stopped, and how long they spent in total in and outside of Tuscany. By using open source data to extract points of interests, cities, and the geographic landscape for each of the locations, we were able to capture tourists’ preferences.
What emerges from the results are groups of tourists who follow a similar behaviour. Every cluster is coloured the same and each dot is average location of a tourist during the whole duration of his stay in Tuscany.
We performed the clustering analysis on tourists from all countries over the summer and post-summer seasons, as well as tourists from Germany in the summer and United States in the post-summer seasons.Enter season and country values below to view the graphical displays of each clustering analysis followed by descriptions.
