Recently, I ordered a new Mac Mini for my office. Because of the nature of what I do (a lot of design stuff) I bought the top tier Mac Mini, and then upgraded it to 16GB of Ram (mostly because the ram in this computer isn't user-upgradable and I didn't want to have to replace it in two years.)
So here is the configuration I’m ending up with:
I’m paying $1199 for this computer.
Now, I wanted to address the accusation that Macs are more expensive with an experiment. I went on NewEgg.com to try to figure out the cost of building a machine with similar specs.
Here is what I came up with:
Now, I know that these would not work together. I know, for example, that the processor won’t work with that motherboard. I know that I left out a fan. I wasn’t really trying to build a computer, I was trying to make a point.
The point is this - the “apple tax” is illusory. Sure, Macs are never going to be price-competitive in the “race for the bottom commoditized hardware market. You’ll always be able to find a Dell or HP machine that is cheaper.
But not that much cheaper. And probably with cheaper parts. And definitely without the attention to detail and design that comes with every single Mac. Sometimes, the whole is more than the some of it’s parts.
That’s just hardware. When you add the rock solid operating system (in 10 years, I’ve never had antivirus software or a virus) to the mix, actually useful bundled software like Keynote and iMovie, and first class customer support.  When you consider the fact that you’ll have access to an excellent software market that absolutely crushes the windows marketplace and can use mac only apps like Ulysses III for writing, Sketch for UX design, Transmit for FTP, and many, many others.
That Mac stops looking like a luxury item, and starts looking like one of the best deals in tech.


Create guitar tablature (“tabs”) from R code with tabr
. The tabr
package provides programmatic music notation and a wrapper around LilyPond for creating quality guitar tablature.
tabr
offers functions for describing and organizing musical structures and wraps around the LilyPond backend. LilyPond is an open source music engraving program for generating high quality sheet music based on markup syntax. tabr
generates files following the LilyPond markup syntax to be subsequently processed by LilyPond into sheet music.
A standalone LilyPond (.ly) file can be created or the package can make a system call to LilyPond directly to render the guitar tablature output (pdf or png). While LilyPond caters to sheet music in general, tabr
is focused on leveraging it specifically for creating quality guitar tablature.
Note: tabr
has been tested on Windows. It has been minimally tested on Linux. It has not yet been tested on Mac.
You can install tabr from GitHub with:
# install.packages('devtools')
devtools::install_github("leonawicz/tabr")
As a brief example, recreate the tablature shown in the tabr
logo. Here are the steps.
phrase
or the shorthand alias p
.track
.score
.tab
.A phrase here does not require a strict definition. Think of it as the smallest piece of musical structure you intend to string together. The first argument to phrase
is a string describing notes of a specific pitch (or rests: “r”), separated in time by spaces. For chords, just remove spaces to indicate simultaneous notes. Integers are appended to indicate the octave number so that the pitch is unique. For example, a rest followed by a sequence of notes might be given by notes = "r a2 c3 f3 d3 a3 f3"
.
The second argument is a similar string giving note metadata. In this example there is nothing to add but the time durations. Whole notes taking up an entire measure of music are given by 1, half notes by 2, quarter notes 4, eighth notes 8, and so on. To specify a quarter note rest followed by a sequence of eighth notes, use info = "4 8 8 8 8 8 8"
. This basic example does not require specifying additional note information such as dotted notes for different fractions of time, staccato notes, ties/slurs, slides, bends, hammer ons and pull offs, etc. These specifications are currently available in tabr
to varying degrees of development and are covered in the vignette tutorials.
The third argument, string
, is optional but generally important for guitar tablature. In similar format, it specifies the strings of the guitar on which notes are played. Providing this information fixes the fret-string combinations so that LilyPond does not have to guess what position on the neck of the guitar to play a specific note. An inability to specify this in various tablature notation software (or laziness by the user), is a common cause of inaccurate tabs scouring the internet, where even when the notes are correct they are written in the tab suggesting they be played in positions no one would sensibly use. Note that the x
shown below is just a placeholder indicating no need to specify a string for the quarter note rest.
Finally, specify some song metadata to reproduce the original staff: the key of D minor, common time, and the tempo. If LilyPond is installed on your system (and added to your system PATH variable on Windows systems), tab
should call it successfully. Alternatively, on Windows, it can be added explicitly by calling tabr_options
. This option to specify the LilyPond path is still available on other systems. An example of this is commented out below.
library(tabr)
# path <- 'C:/Program Files (x86)/LilyPond/usr/bin/lilypond.exe'
# tabr_options(lilypond = path)
p1 <- p("r a2 c3 f3 d3 a3 f3", "4 8 8 8 8 8 8", "x 5 5 4 4 3 4")
track1 <- track(p1)
song <- score(track1)
tab(song, "phrase.pdf", key = "dm", time = "4/4", tempo = "4 = 120")

The tabr
package is in early development. Breaking changes could occur in a later version. Many capabilities are missing. Others are incompletely implemented. Others in the R developer community who are probably much better musicians than myself are welcome to contribute. This is the type of package that will only develop in response to specific needs of its contributor(s). There are many things that tabr
does not address at this stage of development. There are countless aspects of music notation available in LilyPond that tabr
does not wrap around. The aim is not to do it all, but eventually to do much more than is currently in place.
I am not an expert in music theory, or in music notation and transcription, or in LilyPond. In fact, my skill in music notation is ironically low enough that I do not find it any more challenging or an impediment to describe a song in R code rather than to just tab it out by hand. The main intent with tabr
, however, is simply to be able to generate markup files that LilyPond accepts and understands, without having to write that markup directly.
A major part of the motivation for tabr
is the desire for high quality guitar tablature, as produced by LilyPond. Using LilyPond for high quality sheet music and tablature creates an entry point to programmatic music notation as opposed to reliance on various GUI-based programs. While I have not personally used every GUI-based music notation software available, I have found that they tend to have a lot of limitations. Some of them also produce sheet music that looks unprofessional when compared to LilyPond-engraved sheet music. LilyPond, generally speaking, offers the ability to engrave exactly what you want, as long as you know how to provide the markup syntax. Like R, it is also open source.
Finally, there are nonetheless limitations to LilyPond itself. It has been developed for sheet music in general and guitar tablature features were added as a relative afterthought. There are plenty of features I have not yet developed R wrappers around. Then there are other features like string bending that are technically available, but not fully developed yet on the LilyPond side either. Case in point, LilyPond’s bend engraver is still under development; specifying something as common as a bend-release-pull-off is, to put it mildly, challenging.

2 Disney workers, retired middle school principal nabbed in Florida child porn sting
by Robert GeartyTwo Disney employees and a retired middle school assistant principal have been snared in a Florida sheriff’s child pornography sting.
Their arrests and the arrests of 14 other men were announced Friday by Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd as part of an undercover probe into child pornography conducted by detectives who work on computer crime cases.
Judd said the two arrested Disney employees were Brett Kinney, 40, of Lake Alfred, Fla., and Donald Durr, Jr., 52, of Davenport, Fla. He said the retired assistant principal was William Hage, 76 of Lakeland, Fla. The school where Hage worked was Seth McKeel Middle School in Lakeland.

They were each arrested Monday on charges of possessing child pornography and promoting child pornography.
Kinney worked as a guest experience manager at Walt Disney World and had been employed at the theme park for 15 years, Fox 13 Tampa reported.
Investigators said he told detectives he had an addiction to child pornography and had been viewing it for 22 years, according to the station.

Durr was also employed by Disney for over two decades on their maintenance staff, the station reported.
Judd said Durr told deputies, "I'm a pervert but I'm not a monster," according to Fox 13.
A representative for Disney said Kinney no longer works for the company and that Durr is on unpaid leave, the station reported.
Judd said in a news release that Hage was on the internet chatting about wanting “to see a 15-year-old wearing something sexy” when detectives showed up at his house with a search warrant.

The news release said Hage had hundreds of videos and images of child pornography with girls of various ages.

--- layout: post title: "Ed-Tech Startup Funding Data: July 2016" date: 2016-07-31 10:35:00 +0000 tags: image: https://s3.amazonaws.com/hackedu/2016-07-31-pig.jpg imagecredits: https://www.flickr.com/photos/bazardelbizzarro/8038877579 ---
When I wrote about funding for the year-to-date for ed-tech companies at the end of June, I noted that there had been a significant downturn in the amount of investment dollars flowing into the sector as well as the number of deals being made. A couple of factors were a play: 2015 was a record-setting year for ed-tech funding, so it would’ve been tough to keep up let alone surpass those figures. And furthermore, venture capitalists seem to have been tightening their belts in the early months of 2016 – not just in ed-tech but across the entire tech industry.
But just last week, investment analyst firm CB Insights published a blog post with the headline “Global Ed Tech Startup Deals And Funding See An Uptick.” I usually report funding on a month-by-month basis, but I grouped the data by quarters so that I could compare my numbers to CB Insights’. The numbers are different; the patterns, similar:
Here's a different look at the same data:
For the month of July, the number of investments and the amount of investment both fell from the previous month:
Dollars were off about $5.4 million from June. There were half as many deals.
I suppose we can debate whether ed-tech has seen an “uptick” or whether the “dip” will continue. I’m not sure that matters all that much as funding levels have always fluctuated month-to-month and quarter-to-quarter. But I think we are seeing an increase in the size of investments (something that skews both the totals and the averages) – and this likely marks a maturation of sorts for the sector. Lots of companies will not be able to raise Series B, C, etc rounds, and in the current funding climate, they’re likely to struggle (close their doors, be acquired). (When I hear many ed-tech startups boasting that they have 50 employees, I smell an unsustainable burn rate.)
When it comes to what investors still seem to like: test prep, student loans, and coding bootcamps/apps/hardware.
As always, the data that powers this analysis is freely and openly available via GitHub.

Havertz dropped from Germany squad because of injury
BERLIN (AP) - Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Kai Havertz has been ruled out of Germany’s European Championship qualifiers due to a left thigh injury.
Bayer Leverkusen said Monday the 20-year-old Havertz tore a muscle in his thigh during the side’s 2-0 win at Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday. He will miss Germany’s games against Belarus in Mönchengladbach on Saturday and Northern Ireland in Frankfurt on Nov. 19.
Leverkusen did not say how long it expects Havertz to be sidelined.
Havertz is the second player to drop out for Germany’s squad after Borussia Dortmund forward Marco Reus pulled out with an ankle problem.
Several players were left out of the squad of coach Joachim Löw because of injuries, including Niklas Süle, Leroy Sané, Julian Draxler, Antonio Rüdiger, Thilo Kehrer, Marcel Halstenberg and goalkeeper Kevin Trapp.
Matthias Ginter, Leon Goretzka, Jonas Hector and Nico Schulz returned from injury.
Germany is tied with the Netherlands at the top of Group C.

Starting XI: Polokwane v Baroka
by Soccer LadumaAbsa Premiership
Teams: Polokwane City v Baroka FC
Date: 09 November 2019
Venue: Peter Mokaba Stadium
Limpopo will be divided on Saturday afternoon as Polokwane City host struggling Baroka FC at the Peter Mokaba Stadium.
Baroka halted their five-game losing streak in all competitions following a 0-0 draw with Mamelodi Sundowns on Wednesday evening.
The draw did come at a cost as full-back Matome Kgoetyane was sent off in the latter stages after receiving a straight for a lunge on Tebogo Langerman.
Rise and Shine, meanwhile, have failed to build on their fine start to the season after they extended their losing run to five matches in all competitions on Wednesday after a 5-3 loss to Cape Town City in the Mother City.
Polokwane also have a suspension of their of their own for this afternoon's clash as Themba Chauke misses out after an accumulation of yellow cards.
The defeat to the Citizens also saw head coach Zlatko Krmpotić lose his job, as Bernard Molekwa takes charge this afternoon.
Rise and Shine did claim the double over their over provincial rivals after claiming 3-1 triumph in the last clash, while the reverse fixture ended 2-0.
Here's how they line up:
Polokwane: To be confirmed.

GLADIATOR: A LAWYERS ALLEGORY by Lawrence J. Siskind From Witness for the Prosecution to Twelve Angry Men, from The Verdict to The Firm, movies about lawyers occupy an honored niche in cinema. While the best of these movies present universal themes, their character depictions have always been literal. Unlike Captain Ahab, who is more than a sea captain, or Sir Lancelot, who is more than a knight, lawyers are always just what they appear to be: lawyers. That is what makes Ridley Scotts Gladiator so innovative an addition to the genre. Though superficially about Roman gladiators, the movie is actually about lawyers. It is based on Litigator, Max I. Moskowitzs autobiographical account of his expulsion from his law firm, and the subsequent resurrection of his professional career. Scott tells the story of Moskowitz, legal empire builder and litigator, in the form of an allegory about a man named Maximus, Roman general and gladiator. This daring cinematic gambit has resonated with audiences. When Gladiator premiered before a select audience of attorneys, the viewers cheered lustily, pounded their briefcases with their fists, and, at the films conclusion, rose in unison and gave the "thumbs up" signal. * * * At the start of the millennium, Moskowitz is at the height of his powers, the unchallenged rainmaker of his firm. Moskowitzs career has been mentored by the firms founder, Callaghan, but his rise has earned him the enmity of the founders jealous son. Dispatched by the management committee to expand the firms business, Moskowitz has conquered the Silicon Valley, bringing in client after client, and driving out or absorbing the New York firms which had migrated into the Valley from the East. Scott travels back in time to the start of another millennium, and represents Moskowitz as Maximus, the Roman general who has conquered Gaul for Marcus Aurelius, his emperor and sponsor. The movie begins with Maximus at the head of his legions in a forest, awaiting battle with the last force of resisting barbarians. Suddenly a Roman cavalryman emerges from the morning mists, galloping toward the Roman lines. As he nears, the viewer sees that he is headless. Then the viewer sees the barbarian chief brandishing the unfortunate emissarys head, which he proceeds to toss defiantly at the Romans. Maximus and his men recognize this gesture as a signal that negotiations have failed. Scott bases this scene on an incident in Moskowitzs autobiography where he attempts to negotiate a merger with the last remaining New York outpost in Silicon Valley. As he waits nervously in his hotel suite for a response to his merger proposal, he looks out his window and sees his associate jogging toward him. As the associate nears, Moskowitz sees with horror that the associates Versace glasses are shattered and his tailored suit ripped neatly down the middle. Tearfully, the associate tells Moskowitz that the New York lawyers have taken his palm pilot and wont give it back. Moskowitz understands that his proposal has been rejected. He immediately barrages the New Yorkers with faxes offering sweet deals to their senior associates and lateral positions for their junior partners. By nightfall, Moskowitz has reduced this last redoubt of resistance to a branch office of his firm. In Gladiator, Maximus looks forward to returning to Rome, to his farm and family, after subduing the barbarians. In Litigator, Moskowitz, who has been living out of hotel rooms for three years, longs to return to San Francisco, to rejoin his family and to rebuild his practice. Both face disappointment and betrayal. Maximus is betrayed by Commodus, the jealous son of Marcus Aurelius. Commodus murders his father, then has Maximus arrested and slated for execution. Maximus escapes, but he cannot save his family, whom Commodus butchers. Maximus ends up sold to the owner of a gladiator troop in the distant provinces. Revenge against Commodus becomes his sole ambition. To achieve it, Maximus disguises his identity, and embraces the life of a gladiator. Scotts plot parallels Moskowitzs account of his own return and exile. Moskowitz had hoped to find an increased equity share and a corner office waiting for him upon his return to San Francisco. He had dreamed of spending more time with his family, and maybe even doing some pro bono work. Instead, he finds that Callaghan, the son of the managing partner, has engineered the forced retirement of his father and has manipulated the management committee against him. Moskowitz is accused of padding his expense account and stealing firm property. Expelled from his firm, and facing ethics charges before the State Bar Professional Responsibility Committee, Moskowitz rushes back to his home in Piedmont to protect his family. He is too late. A team of law firm investigators sent by Callaghan has arrived first, and has ransacked the house, seizing legal pads, diskettes, pens, paper clips, and other firm property. Convinced that he cannot get a fair hearing in San Francisco, Moskowitz escapes to Bakersfield, a rustic Central Valley town far from the opulent splendor of San Francisco. Since he has failed to appear at the State Bar hearing, he is disbarred and must now practice under an assumed name. Ridley Scott deftly intertwines Moskowitzs account of exile and resurrection with the tale of Maximus. Both men find themselves displaced from their former positions of honor and power, forced to lead furtive lives, driven only by revenge. Maximus wins fight after brutal fight in the arena. His delighted owner moves the gladiator troop closer and closer to Rome, where the money is better. Moskowitz wins trial after trial in the Central Valley. His early cases are of the whiplash and slip-and-fall variety, but as his reputation grows, so does the size of his cases. Gradually, he moves his practice Northward, to Modesto, to Stockton, and finally to San Francisco, where the money is better. Meanwhile, Commodus is leading a corrupt and debauched life as emperor of Rome. The City yearns for a reformer, a man who can restore Rome to its former Republican glory. In Litigator, Callaghan is ruining his fathers firm. He and his cronies on the management committee have seized all the best corner offices and have voted themselves huge profit shares. The top associates and junior partners have left, and those remaining desperately hope for a savior for their tottering firm. Both tales end with climactic confrontations. In Litigator, Moskowitz is called in at the last minute to try a major intellectual property case in San Francisco. On the eve of trial, he meets with opposing counsel, who turns out to be none other than Callaghan. In their dramatic confrontation, Moskowitz, who has been practicing for years under an assumed name, reveals his true identity to his former partner who promptly stabs him in the back. In Gladiator, Maximus must fight a final battle in the Colisseum with his nemesis. Just before the duel, Commodus visits Maximus in his underground chamber. In the guise of a brotherly embrace, Commodus stabs him in the back. This "stabbing in the back" metaphor is one of Ridley Scotts few dramatic devices which critics have faulted. Until that scene, his allegorical technique is symbolic and subtle. When Commodus knifes Maximus, however, Scott descends to literalism. "After all," as one Bay Area lawyer and film critic has noted, "stabbing each other in the back is just what partners tend to do to one another." The destruction of the heroes dooms their respective civilizations. Rome declines into despotism. Moskowitzs firm loses partners and clients. Ultimately, much diminished, the firm is overrun and absorbed by a horde of barbaric litigators from New York. * * * One sign of the success of Ridley Scotts allegorical device is that it is already being imitated. Brawny trial lawyers now swagger into court with undisguised belligerence, and some have taken to wearing breastplates in place of vests. Judges are not immune. In some courts, following a heated exchange between litigators, judges, instead of ruling from the bench, now look to the rowdy, chanting lawyers in the gallery. A thumbs up signal means a ruling for the movant; thumbs down means the respondent prevails. The phenomenon has spread to our own imperial capital. During the penalty phase of the Microsoft antitrust suit, Justice Department lawyers urged splitting the company in two. Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson stunned the courtroom by uttering: "Gallia est omnis divisa partes tres."

Emotional Intelligence (EI) can be cultivated, taught & learned. While leading to greater productivity, leadership and happiness, EI has the potential to optimize our psyhcological and physiological self. The statement "intuition is experienced in the body" is quite poignant in that we often discount our gut feeling and more often than not end up over analyzing something.
Simply put - bliss. It creates a zen like state of heightened awareness and appreciation of everything in and around me. This focussing technique also helps to disengage the brain, quietening the mind and opening it up to infinite possibilities.
The word "rongomomoe" in Māori represents a state of "sleep" where the body is in a statis of complete rest yet fully aware of their surroundings. This is considered a prime state of learning, and a technique that connects us to our Atua Māori (Gods), tūpuna (ancestors) and puna mātauranga (knowledge repositories) of old.

FROM THE DESK OF MR MUSSA SANI BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER bANK OF AFRICA. OUAGADOUGOU,BURKINA FASO. PRIVATE TEL: +226678817532 TOP SECRET Dear Friend I am MR MUSSA SANI the bill and exchange manager at the foreign remittance department of BANK OF AFRICA. I got your contact from the internet ,while seaching for an honest and trust worthy person, who will assist me to implement this transfer. l discovered the sum of Twenty Two million and five hundred thousand United States Dollars (USD22.5M) belonging to a deceased customer of this bank. The fund has been lying in a suspence account without anybody coming to put claim over the money since the account owner late Mr Salla khatif from Lebanese , who was involved in the December 25th 2003 Benin plane crash. Here is the air crash website on cnn = http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/26/benin.crash/index.html The said fund is now ready for transfer to a foriegn account whose owner will be portrayed as the beneficiary and next of kin to the deceased customer of the bank. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next if kin to come over and claim his money because we cannot release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidlines and laws but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I decided to make this business proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and I don't want this money to go into the bank treasury as unclaimed bill. The banking law and guidline here stipulates that if such money remained unclaimed after five years, the money will be transfered into the bank treasury as unclaimed fund. The request of foreigner as next of kin in this business is occassioned by the fact that the customer was a foreigner and a Burkinabe cannot stand as next of kin to a foreigner. I therefore soliciting for your assistance to come forward as the next of kin, I have agreed that 40% of this money will be for you as the beneficiary in respect of the provision of your Account and services rendered, 55% would be for me while 5% will be for expencses incured during the cause of thIS transaction If the money is transferred to your Account from BANK OF AFRICA, I and my family in this transaction will proceed immediately to your country for our own share of the money. I expect you to keep this business strictly confidential and secret as you may wish to know that I am Bank official. Be rest assured that this business is 100% riskfree on both side and every arrangement to transfer this money to the Account you are going to provide have been concluded provided we maintain the confidentiality and secreceirity involved. Contact me on my email address I am looking forward for your prompt response. Yours faithfully, MR MUSSA SANI _________________________________________________________________ MSN Messenger : appels gratuits de PC à PC ! http://www.msn.fr/newhotmail/Default.asp?Ath=f

The Adapter.insert method is dedicated for adding items in the runtime without scrolling. It allows to insert new items before or after specified one. The argument of this method is an object of the following type:
{{ argumentsDescription }}
The items option is an array we want to be added to the dataset. The before, after, beforeIndex and afterIndex options define the position of the insertion; only one of these options is allowed. Predicate function (before/after) is applied to each item in the current buffer, and the first true result of running the predicate determines the item before/after which the new items should appear.
Using the beforeIndex/afterIndex option allows to insert items by index. Also, these options provide virtual insertion, if selected index is out the buffer but still belongs to the known datasource boundaries.
The last option is decrease. The indexes of the items following after the inserted ones are increased by default. This behavior can be changed, by setting decrease to true, we are telling the Scroller that the indexes of the items that are before the inserted ones should decrease.
This demo shows how the Adapter.insert method can be used in the real life. "Datasource" tab contains common datasource logic. "Increase" and "Decrease" tabs present inserting logic for both cases we have in this demo. "Increase" uses index API (in-buffer + virtual insertions), "Decrease" uses predicate API (in-buffer insertions only). Note that each item is just a string, and the Scroller deals with natural indexes, which forces us to subtract MIN value from the index coming into the Datasource.get body.
Also, this is very important to maintain consistency between the external Datasource and the internal Scroller's buffer. Both doInsert methods do it. They a) generate new items in a for-loop, b) insert them into the datasource by updating this.data, c) insert them into the internal Buffer via Adapter.insert.

Steven Gerrard recently retired from all play in 2016. He played 16 full seasons with Liverpool, and won the hearts of all the supporters. He was known for pulling Liverpool out of bad situations single handedly, often times popping up to score important goals for the team. Although he doesn't play professionally anymore, he recently joined the Liverpool Academy coaching team, helping train the next generation of youngsters.
| Player Name | Appearances for Liverpool | Goals Scored |

Luis Suarez transferred to Liverpool from Ajax in 2011, and set the pace for his time at LFC with a goal in his first game. He was known for scoring impossible goals, and quickly became one of the best players in the premier league. It's difficult to talk about his time with Liverpool without mentioning the controversies. Many people who don't even follow soccer know about the time he bit an opposing player. None of the controversy can take away from the talent and game changing ability he possessed. Following the 2014 season, Suarez transferred to Spanish club Barcelona, and has continued scoring important goals in the Spanish league.

| Luis Suarez | 110 | 69 |
Kenny Dalglish, often referred to as "King Kenny", played 13 full seasons for Liverpool, from 1977-1990. He is known for his connection with the fans, and for being a pure goal scoring striker. Following his retirement, he managed Liverpool for 6 seasons, winning the league title 3 times. Dalglish went on to manage Blackburn Rovers and also led them to the league title in the 1994-1995 season. He is still affiliated with LFC in a director role.

| Kenny Dalglish | 355 | 118 |
Ian Rush is Liverpool's all time leading goal scorer. He played for the club in two separate stints, from 1980-1986, and 1988-1996. His trophy cabinet consists of 5 league titles, 3 FA cups, 5 league cups, and 2 European cups. His last appearance for Liverpool was in the 1996 FA cup final, and he retired from professional play in 2000.

In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream At night we ride through the mansions of glory in suicide machines Sprung from cages out on highway nine, Chrome wheeled, fuel injected, and steppin' out over the line HOh, Baby this town rips the bones from your back It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap We gotta get out while we're young `Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run Yes, girl we were Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend I want to guard your dreams and visions Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims And strap your hands 'cross my engines Together we could break this trap We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back H-Oh, Will you walk with me out on the wire `Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider But I gotta know how it feels I want to know if love is wild Babe I want to know if love is real Oh, can you show me Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors And the boys try to look so hard The amusement park rises bold and stark Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist I wanna die with you Wendy on the street tonight In an everlasting kiss One, two, three, four The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive Everybody's out on the run tonight But there's no place left to hide Together Wendy we can live with the sadness I'll love you with all the madness in my soul H-Oh, Someday girl I don't know when We're gonna get to that place Where we really wanna go And we'll walk in the sun But till then tramps like us Baby we were born to run Oh honey, tramps like us Baby we were born to run Come on with me, tramps like us Baby we were born to run

Massacre of journalists in Philippines marked 10 years on
It is considered one of the bloodiest attacks on the media in the world: a massacre that saw 58 people killed, including 32 journalists.
It happened in the Philippines on November 23, 2009; on Saturday, activists and media workers marked the 10-year anniversary.
The journalists were travelling with a local politician when they were ambushed and killed by armed men in the province of Maguindanao.
The media workers were later found in a mass grave.
The case against the suspected masterminds of the massacre, the patriarchs of Maguindanao's local political clan Ampatuan, has dragged on for 10 years.
Lawyers for the families of the 58 massacre victims said a verdict is expected to be given before the end of 2019.

INTERPOLATE - Cubic and Quintic Interpolation
CUBETERP and QUINTERP perform cubic and quintic interpolation of a
known, tabulated function. These routines are different from the many
other interpolation routines fr IDL in that they allow you to choose
the first derivative -- and second derivative in the case of QUINTERP
-- at each control point. In other words, these are not standard
"natural" splines, but rather smooth polynomials with specified
derivatives at every point. The caller specifies the tabulated values
and derivatives and requested interpolation points, and returns the
interpolated values (and optionally the interpolated derivaties).
If you do not need to specify the derivative values
explicitly, then you likely want to use SPL_INIT/SPL_INTERP
instead.
PHUNWRAP - Phase Unwrapping to Remove Cycle Jumps
PHUNWRAP unwraps a sequence of phases to produce a new series of
cycle counts. Phase jumps due to crossing over the PHASE=0 boundary
are removed by adding an integral number of cycles. The algorithm is
based on the MATLAB "unwrap" function. Users can select the tolerance
used to determine the phase jump, and can also select the definition
of "1 cycle."
QUATERNIONS - Library to Manipulate and Use Quaternions
This library provides routines to manipulate and use quaternions in
IDL. Quaternions are 4-vectors that can be used to represent the
orientations of one reference frame with respect to another. In
practical terms, quaternions represent arbitrary three dimensional
rotations. They have many advantages over rotation matrices (i.e.,
direction cosine matrices) and over Euler angles. Quaternions are
used in computer animation to represent the orientation of the camera,
and in spacecraft navigation to represent the body attitude.
The function QTCOMPOSE is used to make a quaternion from a rotation
axis and angle. The functions QTANG and QTAXIS are used to extract
the rotation axis and angle from an existing quaternion. The
functions QTMAT and QTFIND are used to convert to and from the
direction cosine matrix representation. The functions QTERP, QTPOW,
QTLOG and QTEXP are used to perform smooth interpolations between
orientations. The functions QTINV and QTMULT construct the quaternion
inverse and product respectively. The function QTVROT transforms a
3-vector according to a quaternion rotation. QTEULER is a convenience
routine to chain together multiple Euler-like rotations. QTNORMALIZE
normalizes a quaternion to be a unit quaternion and/or enforces other
regularity constraints.
UNITVEC - Manipulate unit vectors and polar angles
These three functions provide ways to manipulate unit vectors as
3-vectors and as spherical polar angles. (also known as longitude and
latitude; or longitude and colatitude; or right ascension and
declination)
UNITIZE returns a unit vector for any input vector. The returned
vector has the same direction as the input, but unit magnitude.
ANGUNITVEC and UNITVECANG convert between 3-component vector
notation and spherical polar angles. ANGUNITVEC converts from
longitude and (co)latitude (or RA/Dec) to a unit 3-vector. UNITVECANG
does the reverse conversion.
QPINT1D - Adaptive Numerical Integration (Quadpack)
QPINT1D adaptively calculates an approximation result to a given
definite integral, hopefully satisfying a constraint on the accuracy
of the solution. QPINT1D is based on the QUADPACK fortran package
originally by Piessens, de Doncker, Ueberhuber and Kahaner (and
implements equivalents to the QAGSE, QAGPE, QAGIE, and DQKxx fortran
routines). All of these specialized integrators are combined into a
single convenient callable IDL procedure.
QPINT1D integrates both IDL functions and IDL expressions. It
handles integrands with known and unknown but integrable
singularities, and also can compute improper integrals (i.e.,
integrals whose limits extend to infinity).
QPINT1D is "adaptive" in the sense that it locates regions of the
integration interval which contain the highest error, and focusses its
efforts on those regions. The algorithm locates these regions by
successively bisecting the starting interval. Each subinterval is
assigned an error estimate, and the region with the largest error
estimate is subdivided further, until each subinterval carries
approximately the same amount of error. Convergence of the procedure
may be accelerated by the Epsilon algorithm due to Wynn.
DDEABM - Integrate Ordinary Differential Equation (Adams-Bashforth-Moulton)
DDEABM performs integration of a system of one or more ordinary
differential equations (ODEs) using a Predictor-Corrector technique.
An adaptive Adams-Bashforth-Moulton method of variable order between
one and twelve, adaptive stepsize, and error control, is used to
integrate equations of the form:
DF_DT = FUNCT(T, F)
T is the independent variable, F is the (possibly vector) function
value at T, and DF_DT is the derivative of F with respect to T,
evaluated at T. FUNCT is a user function which returns the derivative
of one or more equations.
DDEABM is based on the public domain procedure DDEABM.F written by
L. F. Shampine and M. K. Gordon, and available in the DEPAC package of
solvers within SLATEC library.
DDEABM is used primarily to solve non-stiff and mildly stiff ODE
problems, where evaluation of the user function is expensive, or high
precision is demanded (close to the machine precision).
CHEB - Approximation and interpolation using Chebyshev polynomials
This is a set of three IDL functions, used for the interpolation
and approximation of mathematical functions over finite intervals by
Chebyshev polynomials. The approximating function is:
f(x) = Sum[ c_j T_j(x) ]
where "c_j" are the
Chebyshev coefficients and T_j(x) are the orthogonal Chebyshev
polynomials. By default the interval is [-1,1], but this can be
changed with the INTERVAL keyword.
Chebyshev approximations are most appropriate when a known smooth
function is expensive to calculate. With a small number of function
evaluations, the Chebyshev coefficients can be determined once, and
then the Chebyshev series can be subsequently evaluated quickly for
many abcissae.
The approximation method proceeds in two steps. First, the user
must estimate the Chebyshev coefficients. CHEBCOEF is normally used
in this case, for functions which can be evaluated to full machine
precision at arbitrary abcissae. For noisy or tabulated data, users
should use CHEBFIT instead. For data tabulated on a uniform grid, the
CHEBGRID function is appropriate. The result of either of these
functions is an array of coefficients. The second step involves
computing the function value at the desired abcissae, for which the
CHEBEVAL function is used. Several mechanisms are provided to the
user to control the approximation error.
LEGCHEB can estimate the coefficients of the Legendre series
if the Chebyshev series coefficients are already known.
QRFAC - Linear Least Squares Solutions using QR decomposition
Given an MxN matrix A (M>N), the procedure QRFAC computes the QR
decomposition (factorization) of A. This factorization is useful in
least squares applications solving the equation, A ## x = B. Together
with the procedure QRSOLV, this equation can be solved in a least
squares sense.
The QR factorization produces two matrices, Q and R, such that
A = Q ## R
where Q is orthogonal such that TRANSPOSE(Q)##Q equals the identity
matrix, and R is upper triangular. This procedure does not compute Q
directly, but returns the more-compact Householder reflectors, which
QRSOLV applies in constructing the solution.
The solution technique is to first compute the factorization using
QRFAC, which yields the orthogonal matrix Q and the upper triangular
matrix R. Then the solution vector, X, is computed using QRSOLV.
Pivoting can be performed using the PIVOT keyword.

The standard Cholesky factorization is only defined for a positive
definite symmetric matrix (this is true both mathematically, and for
the standard IDL routine CHOLDC). If the input matrix is positive
definite then the error term E will be zero upon output. The user may
in fact test the positive-definiteness of their matrix by factoring it
and testing that all terms in E are zero.
The decomposition from MCHOLDC can now be used to solve problems
with the built-in IDL function CHOLSOL, if the CHOLSOL keyword is
set.
CROSSPN - Efficient vector cross products of many terms
The function CROSSPN computes the vector cross product (outer
product). The difference between CROSSPN and the IDL library function
CROSSP, is that CROSSPN allows more than one cross product to be
computed at one time (i.e., it is vectorized).
Thus, in the expression "C = CROSSPN(A, B)" the vector cross
product is computed as C = A x B. Because CROSSPN is vectorized, the
vector cross product of any combination of 3-vectors and 3xN arrays can
be computed.
ACIRCCIRC - Calculate the area of overlap between two circular regions
ACIRCCIRC computes the overlap area between two circles. The
circles are specified by their radii, R1 and R2, and the distance
between the centers of the circles.
ACIRCCIRC handles cases of partial overlap, as well degenerate
cases of no overlap and circle 1 completely enclosed within circle
2 (or vice versa).
