This section builds on the prior section describing secondary key indices to show how to open foreign key indices. A foreign key index is a secondary key index that also provides integrity constraints. When the primary key of a record in one database is embedded in the value of a record in another database, integrity constraints ensure that the record in the first database exists, i.e, that there are no "dangling pointers". In this example the Shipment's PartNumber and SupplierNumber fields will be used as foreign keys.
When a foreign key index is defined, an "delete action" parameter is specified. This parameter determines what action is taken by the Berkeley DB Java Edition API when the record is deleted to which a foreign key refers. For example, consider what happens to a Shipment record when a Part or Supplier record that is referred to by that Shipment is deleted. There are three possibilities.
ForeignKeyDeleteAction.ABORT specifies that the transaction should be aborted by throwing an exception. The effect is that deleting a Part or Supplier that is referred to by one or more Shipments will not be possible. The Berkeley DB Java Edition will automatically throw a DatabaseException, which should normally cause the transaction to be aborted during exception processing. This is the default delete action if none is specified.
ForeignKeyDeleteAction.NULLIFY
specifies that the Part or Supplier Number field in the Shipment
record should be cleared, or set to a null or empty value. The
effect is that the deleted Part or Supplier will no longer be
referenced by any Shipment record. This option applies when the
foreign key field is optional, i.e, when the application allows it
to be set to a null or empty value. When using this option, the
application must implement the nullifyForeignKey()
method of the
ForeignKeyNullifier
interface.
ForeignKeyDeleteAction.CASCADE specifies that the Shipment record should be deleted also. The effect is that deleting a Part or Supplier will delete all Shipments for that Part or Supplier. This option applies when the deleted record is considered the "parent" or "owner" of the record containing the foreign key, and is used in this example. Since deleting the Shipment record could cause other deletions if other records contain the foreign key of the Shipment, and so on, the term "cascade" is used to describe the effect.
The SampleDatabase
class is extended to open the
Shipment-by-Part and Shipment-by-Supplier secondary key
indices.
import com.sleepycat.bind.serial.SerialSerialKeyCreator; import com.sleepycat.je.ForeignKeyDeleteAction; import com.sleepycat.je.SecondaryConfig; import com.sleepycat.je.SecondaryDatabase;
... public class SampleDatabase { ...private static final String SHIPMENT_PART_INDEX = "shipment_part_index"; private static final String SHIPMENT_SUPPLIER_INDEX = "shipment_supplier_index"; ... private SecondaryDatabase shipmentByPartDb; private SecondaryDatabase shipmentBySupplierDb; ...
public SampleDatabase(String homeDirectory) throws DatabaseException, FileNotFoundException { ... SecondaryConfig secConfig = new SecondaryConfig(); secConfig.setTransactional(true); secConfig.setAllowCreate(true); secConfig.setSortedDuplicates(true); ...secConfig.setForeignKeyDatabase(partDb); secConfig.setForeignKeyDeleteAction( ForeignKeyDeleteAction.CASCADE); secConfig.setKeyCreator( new ShipmentByPartKeyCreator(javaCatalog, ShipmentKey.class, ShipmentData.class, PartKey.class)); shipmentByPartDb = env.openSecondaryDatabase(null, SHIPMENT_PART_INDEX, shipmentDb, secConfig); secConfig.setForeignKeyDatabase(supplierDb); secConfig.setForeignKeyDeleteAction( ForeignKeyDeleteAction.CASCADE); secConfig.setKeyCreator( new ShipmentBySupplierKeyCreator(javaCatalog, ShipmentKey.class, ShipmentData.class, SupplierKey.class)); shipmentBySupplierDb = env.openSecondaryDatabase(null, SHIPMENT_SUPPLIER_INDEX, shipmentDb, secConfig);
... } }
If you compare these statements for opening foreign key indices
to the statements used in the previous section for opening a
secondary index, you'll notice that the only significant difference
is that the setForeignKeyDatabase()
and
setForeignKeyDeleteAction()
methods are called.
setForeignKeyDatabase()
specifies the foreign database that
contains the records to which the foreign keys refer; this
configures the secondary database as a foreign key index.
setForeignKeyDeleteAction()
specifies the delete action.
The application-defined ShipmentByPartKeyCreator
and ShipmentBySupplierKeyCreator
classes are shown below. They
were used above to configure the secondary database objects.
public class SampleDatabase
{
...
private static class ShipmentByPartKeyCreator
extends SerialSerialKeyCreator
{
private ShipmentByPartKeyCreator(ClassCatalog catalog,
Class primaryKeyClass,
Class valueClass,
Class indexKeyClass)
{
super(catalog, primaryKeyClass, valueClass, indexKeyClass);
}
public Object createSecondaryKey(Object primaryKeyInput,
Object valueInput)
{
ShipmentKey shipmentKey = (ShipmentKey) primaryKeyInput;
return new PartKey(shipmentKey.getPartNumber());
}
}
private static class ShipmentBySupplierKeyCreator
extends SerialSerialKeyCreator
{
private ShipmentBySupplierKeyCreator(ClassCatalog catalog,
Class primaryKeyClass,
Class valueClass,
Class indexKeyClass)
{
super(catalog, primaryKeyClass, valueClass, indexKeyClass);
}
public Object createSecondaryKey(Object primaryKeyInput,
Object valueInput)
{
ShipmentKey shipmentKey = (ShipmentKey) primaryKeyInput;
return new SupplierKey(shipmentKey.getSupplierNumber());
}
}
...
}
The key creator classes above are almost identical to the one defined in the previous section for use with a secondary index. The index key fields are different, of course, but the interesting difference is that the index keys are extracted from the key, not the value, of the Shipment record. This illustrates that an index key may be derived from the primary database record key, value, or both.
Note that the
SerialSerialKeyCreator.nullifyForeignKey
method is not
overridden above. This is because
ForeignKeyDeleteAction.NULLIFY
was not used when creating the
SecondaryDatabase
objects. If it were used, implementing the nullifyForeignKey()
methods would be needed to set the part number and supplier number
to null in the Shipment key. But record keys cannot be changed! And
in fact, the primary key is not passed to the
SerialSerialKeyCreator.nullifyForeignKey()
method, only the
primary value is passed. Therefore, if a foreign index key is
derived from the primary key,
ForeignKeyDeleteAction.NULLIFY
may not be used.
The following getter methods return the secondary database objects for use by other classes in the example program.
public class SampleDatabase
{
...
public final SecondaryDatabase getShipmentByPartDatabase()
{
return shipmentByPartDb;
}
public final SecondaryDatabase getShipmentBySupplierDatabase()
{
return shipmentBySupplierDb;
}
...
}
The following statements close the secondary databases.
public class SampleDatabase
{
...
public void close()
throws DatabaseException {
supplierByCityDb.close();
shipmentByPartDb.close();
shipmentBySupplierDb.close();
partDb.close();
supplierDb.close();
shipmentDb.close();
javaCatalog.close();
env.close();
}
...
}
Secondary databases must be closed before closing their associated primary database.

Session 3: Error handling and logging with Mr Winston
First things first. Last time we've ended up with several different solutions and one won the match. The rest poor loosers, need to deal with their huge shame and get the winning solution which we will build on further. But how do we do that ? Git and a bit of googling has shown us a solution:
git fetch upstream
git branch backup
git checkout upstream/master -B master
git push --force origin/master
Like this we have a backup branch of personal solution and master branch will have the solution that has won.
Now .. we continue .. and this time, we've chosen a different path. Instead of fighting against each other, we chose one victim that writes and all others shout at him what he should do.
We want every request that failed to find a correct handler, to result in page not found, therefore after all the route handlers we add:
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
var error = new Error("Page not found");
error.statusCode = 404;
next(error);
});
And now we need to treat all the errors that were risen by previous flow:
app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
res.status(err.statusCode);
res.render('error.html', { title: err.message, errorCode: err.statusCode });
});
Like this, we set the response status code and show an error page that will know what kind of error has occured.
Another thing that can happen in our use cases is that a post is not found (perhaps user has manually altered the url, or we have some dead links). For this we alter the route for showing posts and add error handling to it:
app.get('/posts/:file', function(req, res, next) {
fs.readFile('posts/'+ req.params.file, function(err, content){
if (err) {
var error = new Error("Post not found");
error.statusCode = 404;
return next(error);
}
res.render('post.html', {title: req.params.file, content: content });
});
});
Here in case of an error while reading the file, we foreward an error (a 404 page not found) and skip to the next step of request handling (ommitting the rendering of post). In our case this will go to the error handler, which is exactly what we want.
Now we have full blown error handling and with some hocus-pocus on the error template, it even looks quite nice (checkout https://github.com/KPJS/blog/ for details)
Errors are nice, but we want to be able to read them later .. therefore, we welcome Winston who will do just that.
Reference and quick setup:
var winston = require('winston');
var logger = new (winston.Logger)({
transports: [
new (winston.transports.File)({
name: 'info-file',
filename: 'requests.log',
level: 'info'
}),
new (winston.transports.File)({
name: 'error-file',
filename: 'error.log',
level: 'error'
})
]
});
This will allow us to log into two different files - error and info, just in case that we would want more or less details.
Now we can log the error message in our fantastic error handler with a simple one-liner addition:
app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
logger.error("Error: " + err.message, { path: req.path, stackTrace: err.stack });
...
});
See you next time .. unit testing to come

At TOPP we've been working on a project to apply page styles through filtering (very similar in spirit to XSLT-based templating). I'll talk more about that later -- I think it's a really neat project that will let us offer hosted services to activists that look just like native services, while also letting us integrate all our natively hosted apps regardless of platform.
When we started working with the project it used mod_python for doing the filtering. This was hard to setup and hard to test, so we abstracted it out some and I hacked together an implementation using WSGI middleware.
Then we were trying to figure out how to deploy it. We've worked some on making Zope 2 a WSGI app, but I wasn't that confident in using that in production yet, and anyway I wanted to use this now, on the live site, instead of waiting, so we can use this for real internally before we expose it externally. And we want other people to use this stuff too, and if deployment is hard it's a real drag on participation.
At that point it occurred to me that an HTTP proxy would be very useful. And then I realized I already had all the tools I needed, I just needed to plug them together and put a command-line interface in front.
And it all Just Worked. WSGI is awesome.

What do I want?
I'm entering a career in Web Development in pursuit of a lifestyle that I find both challenging yet rewarding. I'm seeking like minded people who want to build things to make life a little easier or more enjoyeable for all.
I'm drawn in by the idea of being part of a dynamic industry that's forward thinking. I also find the oppurtunites and the flexibility very appealing.
In the long ruin I don't always see myself being a developer, instead I want to build a foundation of knowledge and experience in development before utilising it in a broader role. Aspects of software development that I'm interested in are facilitating understanding and communication between developers and clients/end users; research and business analysis; user mapping; design and user experience; team management and project management.
After querying people in the industry about these particular interests and what sort of role incorporates them a few people have mentioned Product Management, which is now my long term goal.
What do I need to get there?
The skills I hope to develop in this course, outside of the technical skills I will acquire, are as follows:
Confidence, I find though I know I have a lot to offer this industry, I am constantly hindered by my self-belief and it's effect on my pursuits.
Calm, This undertaking is intensive and there will be moments of stress. I often find myself future-tripping and sending myself into uneccessary state of worry. I would like to develop a sense of calm and presence that I can use when pressures rise.
Time Management, Self Discipline, Focus, The fact that I might be faced with the oppurtunity to be developing remotely whilst living in various environments that suit me (the bush, the beach, Berlin) motivates me to focus on and acquire the necessary skills to do so. I have not proven to myself in the past I am capable of such a thing but see EDA as a perfect oppurtunity to change that story.
Leadership & Diplomacy, EDA is also a perfect oppurtunity to see how I operate in a team but also how I might lead a team or project. I would like to put particular efforts into this to deepen my understanding of how I work in such a role.
Communication & Listening, I have put considerable efforts to these soft skills but there is always the oppurtunity to improve more.
My Commitment
Whilst I engage in my coursework and my community involvement, both internally and externally, I will keep my values close to heart and keep my focus on what my desired outcomes are.
Means of doing so could include a thought out Mantra to repeat to myself to reinforce the above in a succint manner. I will benefit from revisiting and refining what it is I am pursuing.
If I find myself straying from this path, or if my path is detrimental to my mental and/or physical health, then I will call on my support channels in the form of family, friends, my facilitator, faculty, and any external mentors I may acquire; depending on the severity.
I also make a commitment to my community and my cohort. That I will try do my best by them, engage with people to strengthen both personal and technical relationships, and facilitate learning where I can.
My Expectations
I expect EDA and the faculty that I will be working with to support me through my learning journey, and with my learning plan, by:
Holding me accountable and giving me feedback if they observe me not keeping to my personal goals.
Supporting me in my career by giving me advice, sharing their observations of my skills and limitations, and connecting me with oppurtunities that arise they see me being able to take advantage of.
Also, please help me find work!
Scheduling Commitments
I will be in Melbourne from the 10th of May to the 14th of May. I will be able to be contacted and available to complete work but will have slightly limited resources.


EXERCISE: Document the stages in a deployment pipeline
Document additional steps that might occur in a deployment pipeline in a text file. Upload a text file with your answers into your cd29artifacts S3 bucket (where 00 is your student id).
EXERCISE: Manually run all the steps in a deployment pipeline

One of the initials hopes that digital music would bring, was a more accurate way for everyone in the food chain to get paid. Though many will argue if that has actually been the case, we all can agree that the music industry is constantly changing.
Disregarding the recent spike in vinyl adoption, the way we consume songs has rapidly evolved, with portable devices replacing compact discs and AI informed playlists replacing your significant other’s homemade mix tapes. We won’t tell them that AI is doing a better job at it.
Independently, something else that’s also revolutionizing the way we handle all business is the incorporation of big data. When you combine it with the media industry, big data is kind of a big deal for music. From an artist’s perspective over the past decade, to who and how one markets and releases music, has significantly evolved in lock step with the industry.
From a logistical or sales perspective, sure, big data can offer a wealth of statistical information for an artist or record label. However, when you have the capabilities to characterize songs and pair it with how well a song tracks with the general public or even better, a particular population, the ability to see trends in musical composition expands rapidly.
Luckily for us, we were able to get our hands on some data that has those exact characteristics. The folks at Spotify (shhhh, the ones who replaced those homemade mix tapes) have already been thinking about this stuff a little bit. The data we were able to leverage characterizes all the songs that made it onto the Billboard Top 100 from 2000 through 2018.
However, instead of using this data to match existing songs with listeners like Spotify, we wanted to flip it over for the music business. How could this data help the industry make better informed decisions around music production and artist growth? Now, it is possible some might consider this selling out. However, if music is your livelihood, and you have the information to help influence how you create your next hit song or what you should be looking for in the next band you sign to your label, wouldn't you want to take a look at it?
Putting a label on it...
As most know, music genre refers to styles of music. "Rock" is a music genre, as is country, pop, rap and many others. When talking about genre in the music industry, it is helpful to think in terms of top-level genres and sub-genres. In the end, a genre is the key to unlocking avenues for music industry success, so musicians should resist the urge to shrug it off as a meaningless label because it really is an important piece of communicating your music to the masses. For that reason, we are going to bin our data through the classification of top-level genres.
Before we jump into the details we also wanted to discusss the measure we using to determine success. Naturally when discussing charts, the first instinct is to think in terms of a position or rank. As you can see in the chart below, we mapped the average peak position and rank for each genre across in our dataset against the overall averages.

As you can see in the chart below, we mapped the average peak position and rank for each genre across in our dataset against the overall averages.
What is interesting here, is that no genre really seems to stand out significantly against the averages when you look in terms of position or ranking.
Everyone would love to sit into the top 25, but there are some things to consider here. When you think about how to measure the strenght of a song against the fluxuations in
ranking over time, each song will eventually drift down that chart and fall out. Therefore, we felt the best signal to measure is the overall time a song has spent on the actual charts.

Technical Blog - Part 1
What is Grid Based Design?
Grid Based Design is seeing the screen as made up as a flexible grid that you can move objects around in.
What is all the hype around responsive websites?
Responsive websites respond to the resolution size of the screen the website is being displayed on. This leads to a more consistant experience of a website across different media players.
Semantic structure?
Semantic structures refers to allocating HTML Tags in a logical or sensible way to the content.
For example, Headdings 1 to 4 should indicate the relative importance of each headding, or grouping of text.
Points of interest I found?
I found a CSS statement that seemed to help make a site responsive over all. I'd like to hear what you think?

Black Snowflake photography began as a hobby and really still is more of a hobby than anything else. I love to take photos. It probably has something to do with my material possessive nature. A photo is like owning a moment of time, and i like to collect stuff.
I'll be the first to tell you that photography is hard work. Even with todays latest technology capturing a truly captivating photo is a special thing. That's why I like to share my photos just in case there is one in my collection that captivates you.
Feel free to download my photos if you see something you like. Contact me for high res prints too. Thanks for visiting my world in photography.


This example demonstrates visualizing the microphone input, recording audio, and replaying the
recorded audio. This won't work unless you have a microphone connected!
Select the visualization type; either RMS Meter or Frequency Histogram.
Press the "Start Recording" button to begin recording audio.
Press the "Stop Recording" button to replay the recorded audio.


First official week of Dev Bootcamp = ALMOST DONE (I say almost because technically writing this blog post is a week 1 assignment ;))
Expectation =/= Reality
For some reason, I expected phase 0 of DBC to be somewhat slow (a lot of easing into html, engineering empathy, the tools we're going to use to interface with DBC staff), but instead the program threw us right into git, github, and the command line. I have to say I have been pleasantly surprised by this.
The pace is fast and there is a ton to learn, but I already feel like I am beginning to become an engineer (I feel comfortable with the command line - what????). We've learned how to organize our files for coding (and really anything else) as well as use git for version control (although all my engineering friends seem to hate git ... I am beginning to understand why they might be frustrated although I like understanding the language!). And it is pretty incredible that I finally have things in my GitHub and understand how to get my code / files / repositories in there! Wahoo!
What a week! Can't wait for more!

You can absorb the bubbles that are smaller than you are, but the big bubbles can absorb you as well, so watch out!
Try to absorb all the other bubbles! If you want to restart, refresh the page for a new game.


Installation¶
These instructions will get you a copy of sectionproperties up and running on your local machine. You will need a working copy of python>=3.5 on your machine.
Installing sectionproperties¶
sectionproperties uses meshpy to efficiently generate a conforming triangular mesh in order to perform a finite element analysis of the structural cross-section. The installation procedure for of meshpy depends on your local machine.
UNIX (MacOS/Linux)¶
sectionproperties and all of its dependencies can be installed through the python package index:
$ pip install sectionproperties
If you have any issues installing meshpy, refer to the installation instructions on its github page or its documentation.
Windows¶
Install meshpy by downloading the appropriate installation wheel.
Navigate to the location of the downloaded wheel and install using pip:
$ cd Downloads
$ pip install MeshPy‑2018.2.1‑cp36‑cp36m‑win_amd64.whl
Once meshpy has been installed, the rest of the sectionproperties package can be installed using the python package index:
$ pip install sectionproperties
Testing the Installation¶
Python unittest modules are located in the sectionpropertes.tests package. To see if your installation is working correctly, run this simple test:
$ python -m unittest sectionproperties.tests.test_rectangle

This file tests the smallest portions of Hotcake possible, most of which are private members - and therefore should not be used directly by production code.
If you're more interested in being assured that Hotcake's various feature sets are working correctly, you're probably after the integration test page.

I’m William (Billy) Matthias. A PhD student in the Dept. of Government (aka Political Science) at the University of Texas - Austin. I am interested in researching issues related to the political economy of development, conflict, and peace building. I also love (Philadelphia) sports, photography, and film.
This site’s purpose is four-fold:
To hone and synthesize my education and skills related to statistics, data analysis, and visualization.
(Relatedly) To practice and demonstrate programming that is important for these skills. Most of the focus is on R and Python.
To take technical, jargon-y findings from exploratory data analyses and put them into a more easily disgestible form.
To help others learn about 1. and 2. and 3.1
I don’t come from a traditional computer science background and so I’m self-taught (more precisely…internet and book taught). I want to give back to the online masses that taught me and continue to help me learn. Additionally, I’ve noticed that a lot of these online communities, blogs, etc. sometimes assume that you know more than you actually do when you’re a beginner, or even intermediate programmer. In my blog posts on programming, I hope to bring a balance between spelling things out clearly without going overboard on the nitty gritty details.

I just posted this message on the Lean-user mailing list:
Dear all,
I am sharing the following information from Jean-Baptiste Tristan:
My name is Jean-Baptiste Tristan, I am a researcher in the machine
learning research group at Oracle Labs, located in the Boston area. I
am looking for an intern who would be interested in doing work at the
intersection of learning theory and formal verification.
More specifically, we would attempt to formalize one or more
fundamental results from learning theory using the Coq proof
assistant. This would require formalizing concepts from probably
approximately correct learning. We would then attempt to prove one of
the key theorems in learning theory such as the one that links finite
VC dimensions with PAC learnability or the one on boosting that shows
that weak learners can be boosted into strong learners. Such work
would build the foundations toward accountable machine learning
algorithms where we can offer strong formal guarantees that a machine
learning algorithm is behaving as advertised.
I would really appreciate if you could share this short proposal with
your students, and I would be happy to answer more questions.
This could be a summer internship for a PhD student, but the terms are flexible. Jean-Baptiste tells me that he has been considering Coq in part because of the existence of the MLCert project (http://ace.cs.ohio.edu/~gstewart/mlcert.html), but he is open to considering alternatives, like Lean.
If you are interested, you can e-mail him directly:
Jean-Baptiste Tristan<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Best wishes,
Jeremy

Hi, I'm Nic
I figure you don't really care that I live in Portland, OR or what my favourite color is, so here are some other facts about me instead:
- I wish I had a pet bear. You could probably learn to ride it and it would eat people who annoy you. I would call him Captain Grumpy.
- If I was marooned on a desert island I'd try to survive by eating my own leg. That way I'd get a delicious, tasty leg-roast and I'd have one less limb to support.
- When I was 12, I freaked out a girl I liked by following her around for an entire school dance. If you're reading this Ingrid, sorry for the 'crazed murderer stalking his prey' vibe; I was just trying to ask you out.
- Lamingtons may be the best dessert ever invented. Do you have them where you are? They're awesome.
My favorite colour is orange.
I love nice comments (because I respond to praise like a dog), but I love constructive criticism even more. If you notice things in the story that aren't quite working I would really like to hear from you!
I guess that makes you pretty important.
No pressure.
How I started writing
Plans for the future
Write! Publish! Repeat! :) I will be publishing four books in 2015 and four more in 2016. I also have plans for a short story collection in the future, as well as a few parodies. How fun!
When I'm not writing
I spend time with my family, work on many of my other projects, and keep up with my reading. I currently live in Portland, Oregon with my wife Natalie and our little girl, River.
I paddle outrigger canoes
The Bridge City Paddling Club is kind enough to have me as a member of their awesome outrigger canoe team. We practice on the Willamette River and race in Oregon and Washington.
I'm a web developer
Visit my other website, Nic Marson, for more information. I work at ConnectiveDX, an agence that specializes in Digital Experiences.

Dither enable
Parameters:
| enable - true to enable dithering, false to disable. Defaults to true. |
Description:
| Enables or disables hardware dithering. Hardware dithering is useful when running games in 16-bit colour mode. Due to the fact that 16-bit mode offers less colours than the human eye can distinguish, separate bands of colour are often noticeable on shaded objects. However, hardware dithering will dither the entire screen to give the impression that more colours are being used than is actually the case, and generally looks a lot better. Due to the fact that 24-bit and 32-bit offer more colours as the human eye can distinguish, hardware dithering is made pretty much redundant in those modes. |

[gecode-users] Random Behavior
Max Ostrowski
ostrowsk at cs.uni-potsdam.de
Fri Jun 29 12:10:13 CEST 2012
I have a problem with my software clingcon, that uses gecode.
This piece of software is an SMT solver, that uses gecode as a theory
solver.
But i can also use it as a solver for arithmetic, without any SAT component.
Now my question: Is the behavior of Gecode reproducible.
Whenever i start my program with exactly the same parameters, i do get
the same result (same gecode statistics).
When i change a parameter (like not printing the solution) i do get a
different result (in terms of fails, nodes, etc... ).
The parameter i change should not affect Gecode at all (everything
related to gecode is done with exactly the same input and in the same
order).
So do you use some memory position for hashing or some random generator
initialized according to some position in memory or something else that
explains this behavior.
Currently i get between 3 and 8615650 fails for a simple LatinSquare
program, just because i change output formatting.
PS:
I tried this with gecode 3.5, 3.7 and trunk.
I also tested the whole program with "valgrind --leak-check=full" and
nothing uninitialized was used or lost.
Any ideas?
Best,
Max

Speilburg's "Lost World" suffers from lost storyline Directed by Steven Spielberg
Written by David Keopp
Starring Vince Vaughn, Julianne Moore, Jeff Goldblum, Pete Posthelwaite
By James Brundage
Thursday, May 22, I go to the UA at Marketfair expecting to reserve a ticket to "The Lost World"'s first showing tomorrow. What I see surprises me, four shows at 10, 10:15, 10:30, and 10:45. I promptly buy a ticket for the ten o' clock showing so I can have my pride as a critic and see what's destined to be this summer's biggest blockbuster before anyone else. Being the neurotic that I am, I make sure that I get my seat an hour early in the front row and center and proceed to take out the book that I brought and read a few chapters that were assigned as homework.
At Ten O'clock, the movie comes on and I watch attentively, chewing popcorn and paying attention with my critical eye. The movie opens on Isla Sorna, part of Les Sinco Mortes (The Five Deaths), eighty-seven miles southwest of Isla Nublar (The site of the ill-fated "Jurassic Park"). Even though, with the cinematography, I am sure that the island that this one was filmed on was the same as the first. The stereotyped British family is relaxing on the island just before their daughter is bitten by compys (something from the first novel).
Just as the mother begins her pitiful scream, you see Ian Malcom (played by Jeff Goldblum) on a background of a jungle in a subway station, heading to see John Hammond (who wasn't even in the novel). There is a time consuming cameo by the kids Tim and Lex from the first movie and then a begrudged confrontation between Hammond's nephew (Arliss Howard). Upon meeting Hammond, he is told about Site B (Isla Sorna), and also informed that his girlfriend, Sarah Harding (Julianne Moore), is already on the island.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is all that it takes to start the movie, in contrast to the hour that "Jurassic Park" took to get into the thrills.
As soon as you are on the island, and for the next hour or so, you are confronted with original thrills after original thrills, and David Keopp is actually half-decent as a screenwriter (In my mind, he is the bane of modern literature). However, in contrast to the first movie, this one has almost no elements of similarity save a scene involving a trailer, two parent T-rex's and a vicious attack that defies belief.
For that hour I was truly dazzled as a watcher, getting my pulse as high as ninety-five beats per minute (was it the movie or was it the fact that it was so cold in the theater?). For about forty minutes, the T-rex's dominate, acting so much better than in the first one. But for the last twenty minutes of that hour, it truly gets fun as the velociraptors wreak total havoc upon the party of explorers on the island.
Then the movie doesn't take itself seriously at all.
After that mystic hour, you end up seeing the T-rex in San Diego, where the movie parodies itself and other things such as "Speed", "Godzilla", and "Speed 2".
Now I have to get brutal as a critic.
The CGI's (Computer Generated Images) are low quality compared to the ILM standard, verging on a word which, because of the high-school nature of this publication, I cannot say.
I will close with this. "The Lost World" was over-hyped, and not anything that I expected. It was a movie to see for the laughs but not one to see for the thrills. I can sum it up in two words: Nothing Special.

Detailed Description
The DelegateModel type encapsulates a model and the delegate that will be instantiated for items in the model.
It is usually not necessary to create a DelegateModel. However, it can be useful for manipulating and accessing the modelIndex when a QAbstractItemModel subclass is used as the model. Also, DelegateModel is used together with Package to provide delegates to multiple views, and with DelegateModelGroup to sort and filter delegate items.
The example below illustrates using a DelegateModel with a ListView.
import QtQuick 2.0 import QtQml.Models 2.2 Rectangle { width: 200; height: 100 DelegateModel { id: visualModel model: ListModel { ListElement { name: "Apple" } ListElement { name: "Orange" } } delegate: Rectangle { height: 25 width: 100 Text { text: "Name: " + name} } } ListView { anchors.fill: parent model: visualModel } }
Note: This type is also available as VisualDataModel in the Qt QML module due to compatibility reasons.
Property Documentation
delegate : Component |
The delegate provides a template defining each item instantiated by a view. The index is exposed as an accessible index
property. Properties of the model are also available depending upon the type of Data Model.
This property holds the name of the group used to filter the visual data model.
Only items which belong to this group are visible to a view.
By default this is the items group.
groups : list<DelegateModelGroup> |
This property holds a delegate model's group definitions.
Groups define a sub-set of the items in a delegate model and can be used to filter a model.
For every group defined in a DelegateModel two attached properties are added to each delegate item. The first of the form DelegateModel.inGroupName holds whether the item belongs to the group and the second DelegateModel.groupNameIndex holds the index of the item in that group.
The following example illustrates using groups to select items in a model.
import QtQuick 2.0 import QtQml.Models 2.2 Rectangle { width: 200; height: 100 DelegateModel { id: visualModel model: ListModel { ListElement { name: "Apple" } ListElement { name: "Orange" } } groups: [ DelegateModelGroup { name: "selected" } ] delegate: Rectangle { id: item height: 25 width: 200 Text { text: { var text = "Name: " + name if (item.DelegateModel.inSelected) text += " (" + item.DelegateModel.selectedIndex + ")" return text; } } MouseArea { anchors.fill: parent onClicked: item.DelegateModel.inSelected = !item.DelegateModel.inSelected } } } ListView { anchors.fill: parent model: visualModel } }
items : DelegateModelGroup |
This property holds visual data model's default group to which all new items are added.
model : model |
This property holds the model providing data for the DelegateModel.
The model provides a set of data that is used to create the items for a view. For large or dynamic datasets the model is usually provided by a C++ model object. The C++ model object must be a QAbstractItemModel subclass or a simple list.
Models can also be created directly in QML, using a ListModel or XmlListModel.
See also Data Models.
The parts property selects a DelegateModel which creates delegates from the part named. This is used in conjunction with the Package type.
For example, the code below selects a model which creates delegates named list from a Package:
DelegateModel { id: visualModel delegate: Package { Item { Package.name: "list" } } model: myModel } ListView { width: 200; height:200 model: visualModel.parts.list }
See also Package.
persistedItems : DelegateModelGroup |
This property holds visual data model's persisted items group.
Items in this group are not destroyed when released by a view, instead they are persisted until removed from the group.
An item can be removed from the persistedItems group by setting the DelegateModel.inPersistedItems property to false. If the item is not referenced by a view at that time it will be destroyed. Adding an item to this group will not create a new instance.
Items returned by the QtQml.Models::DelegateModelGroup::create() function are automatically added to this group.
QAbstractItemModel provides a hierarchical tree of data, whereas QML only operates on list data. rootIndex
allows the children of any node in a QAbstractItemModel to be provided by this model.
This property only affects models of type QAbstractItemModel that are hierarchical (e.g, a tree model).
For example, here is a simple interactive file system browser. When a directory name is clicked, the view's rootIndex
is set to the QModelIndex node of the clicked directory, thus updating the view to show the new directory's contents.
main.cpp
:
int main(int argc, char ** argv) { QApplication app(argc, argv); QQuickView view; QDirModel model; view.rootContext()->setContextProperty("dirModel", &model); view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("view.qml")); view.show(); return app.exec(); }
view.qml
:
import QtQuick 2.0 import QtQml.Models 2.2 ListView { id: view width: 300 height: 400 model: DelegateModel { model: dirModel delegate: Rectangle { width: 200; height: 25 Text { text: filePath } MouseArea { anchors.fill: parent onClicked: { if (model.hasModelChildren) view.model.rootIndex = view.model.modelIndex(index) } } } } }
If the model is a QAbstractItemModel subclass, the delegate can also reference a hasModelChildren
property (optionally qualified by a model. prefix) that indicates whether the delegate's model item has any child nodes.
See also modelIndex() and parentModelIndex().
Attached Property Documentation
This attached property holds the name of DelegateModelGroups the item belongs to.
It is attached to each instance of the delegate.
This attached property holds whether the item belongs to the default items DelegateModelGroup.
Changing this property will add or remove the item from the items group.
It is attached to each instance of the delegate.
This attached property holds whether the item belongs to the persistedItems DelegateModelGroup.
Changing this property will add or remove the item from the items group. Change with caution as removing an item from the persistedItems group will destroy the current instance if it is not referenced by a model.
It is attached to each instance of the delegate.
This attached property holds whether the visual item is bound to a data model index. Returns true if the item is not bound to the model, and false if it is.
An unresolved item can be bound to the data model using the DelegateModelGroup::resolve() function.
It is attached to each instance of the delegate.
This attached property holds the index of the item in the default items DelegateModelGroup.
It is attached to each instance of the delegate.
This attached property holds the visual data model this delegate instance belongs to.
It is attached to each instance of the delegate.
This attached property holds the index of the item in the persistedItems DelegateModelGroup.
It is attached to each instance of the delegate.

TWISTER A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1996 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): * 1/2
From the director (Jan De Bont) of last year's best action movie, SPEED, we have TWISTER about teams of risk taking meteorologists chasing tornadoes. Surprisingly, TWISTER is one boring movie peppered with some nifty effects. It was so bad that had it not been for wanting to see all the special effects, I would have been ready to walk out. Since the characters are not believable, you do not care if they come into harm's way, and hence the special effects, although technically impressive, are never frightening. As Melissa (Jami Gertz) says in the show about another subject, "Funny thing is. I'm not that upset." I felt that way about the tornadoes in the film.
TWISTER is actually three movies for the cost of one. First, there is the love triangle between Bill Harding (Bill Paxton), his about to be divorced wife Jo (Helen Hunt), and his new fiance Melissa. Second, we have the race against the evil meteorologist team lead by Jonas (Cary Elwes). Finally, there are the special tornado effects demonstrations by Industrial Light and Magic.
The film starts with a big tornado in June 1969. This is time we left our home in the tornado country shown in the film to go to grad school at Berkeley in earthquake country. The film makes you think that a lot of people living in the tornado belt have tornado shelters. This is just not true. I saw one in my entire life, and that was at someone's house who was afraid the Commies were going to drop the big one on him. Also not considered in the film are the issue of warnings. We got them all of the time. So what. What were we going to do? Also, if you are warned all of the time, you soon learn to either ignore it or just worry a lot. All of this notwithstanding, I was able to suspend disbelief, but the film is so bad it didn't help.
Soon the movie switches to the present. A team of ragtag meteorologists lead by Jo is trying to place a measuring device called, what else, a Dorothy, in the middle of a tornado.  Their pompous rival, Jonas, has stolen all of their ideas, and with corporate sponsorship, the latest in technology, and a big fleet of sinister jet black vehicles, is ready to smash Jo's group to get his measuring device up first. The subplot has Jo's soon to be ex-husband and ex-partner Bill coming along one more time for the ride. Bill brings along his new fiance Melissa.
Jo tells us that the "biggest series of storms in twelve years is coming". The original script by Michael Crichton is ridiculous. He should stick to books. Jonas tells Bill, "Today we're going to make history, so stick around. The days of dirt sniffing are over." Beside the trite lines, the movie telegraphs every punch for some reason. Aren't they supposed to be trying to scare us? Consider just one example. For some reason the tornado chasers decide to stop at a drive-in movie to get a cup of coffee while the drive-in is playing the horror classic THE SHINING. What do you think will happen? The setup is so contrived.
Look, the special effects are just that, special in this movie. They are technically brilliant, but without a good script and characters that come alive, after a while I found the effects repetitious and boring. Technically brilliant certainly, but stuck in a lifeless movie.
Other than the technically impressive special effects, I liked seeing Hunt and Paxton. Hunt is so smart, tough, and sensual all at once. Paxton is a great minor actor I have enjoyed for a long time. As much as I was glad to see them again, I never found their characters in the movie believable. The show is funny in parts as when a large cow keeps flying by them as in THE WIZARD OF OZ. Finally, kudos for the nice computer graphics. Realistic without being overdone.
TWISTER runs 1:45. It is rated PG-13. There is no sex, no nudity, almost no bad language and no violence other than the natural violence caused by tornadoes. The shots of the tornadoes trivializes the human suffering and dwells mostly with flying objects and property damage. The film would be fine for any kid over say 8. There is no show; there are only special effects, and these are not enough for me to recommend this disappointing film. To be fair, I should point out that my wife liked the film. The large audience where I saw it was pretty subdued, so I do not know how much most people will like it. I give the film * 1/2, but only for the special effects.
**** = One of the top few films of this or any year. A must see film. *** = Excellent show. Look for it. ** = Average movie. Kind of enjoyable. * = Poor show.  Totally unbearable.

BBC opens new case of The Mallorca Files
Balearic police drama The Mallorca Files is returning for a second series.
A new season of the show has been commissioned for BBC One Daytime and iPlayer, as series one is confirmed for broadcast later in November.
The series is based on the Spanish island among the ex-pat community and sees British detective Miranda Blake (Elen Rhys) clashing with the extroverted and “unashamedly unconventional” German Max Winter (Julian Looman) over their different approaches to policing the island.
Rhys and Looman will be reprising their roles in series two, with guest stars such as Phil Daniels and Josette Simon also set to join the adventures on the Balearic island.
Rhys said she was “absolutely thrilled” to be back filming series two.
“Being recommissioned is a huge show of faith and testament to all the hard work and heart the creatives, cast and crew have poured into the show. Miranda Blake has a good few crimes to solve yet!” she said.
Looman added: “Getting a second series so soon is a great reward for all the passion, heart and fun we have put into playing the fantastic characters of Max and Miranda.
“We are hugely grateful for the trust the BBC and the production teams have shown in committing to this second season and we look forward to showcasing audiences more of Max and Miranda’s adventures.”
Dan McGolpin, BBC controller programming and iPlayer, said: “With the nights drawing in, the time is right to transport yourself to sunnier climes by watching The Mallorca Files on BBC One and on BBC iPlayer from later this month.
“People are going to love spending time with Miranda and Max in this exciting and stylish first series and I’m delighted to announce that our crime-fighting duo will return for more capers in 2020.”
All 10 episodes of series one will be available on BBC iPlayer after the first episode airs on BBC One at 2.15pm on November 25. The 10 episodes from series two will appear on screens in 2020.
