UPDATE:
hey everyone! sorry it has taken me so long to post pics. the cake was a HUGE success and he enjoyed every bite. but most of all, he loved the "actionscript birthday message" that graced the top of it! i wanted to thank you all for your suggestions. i have printed them and will make many more "coded" cakes as the holidays go by. i really want to do the heart "equation" for valentines day! i took peter toroks idea and tailored it for andrew's birthday cake (i asked a programmer to help me make it fit on the cake!). needless to say, andrew and all of his programmer buddies got a kick out of it and gobbled up the dark chocolate, peanut butter cake that was underneath all that nerdy icing-y goodness! here is proof:

If he is somewhat mathematically inclined, write the following in icing on the cake.
sin(t) √|cos(t)|
r = __________________ - 2 sin(t) + 2
sin(t) + 7/5
If he doesn't get it at first, tease him with saying that it is obvious that he should take the polar plot of it. If he still doesn't get it, tell him to enter it in WolframAlpha [1], that should yield the result:
You can also do the 3D version [2].

How about writing his age in hexadecimal? E.g. for a 25 year old,
Happy 19th Birthday!
which looks wrong of course at first - it may take him a while to figure out the trick.
Update: A more obvious version:
Happy 0x19th Birthday!
I like it even better (although it is probably too long to fit on a cake... even with shortened getter names):
for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
if (i != 2)
penelope.sing("Happy Birthday to You");
else
penelope.sing("Happy Birthday Dear " + penelope.boyfriend().name());
}
penelope.boyfriend()
though. I mean, that makes him pretty replaceable - not very romantic, is it? But if he's a real pro, he will understand that this is the only architecturally correct way to go. - Pekka

How about making the icing flash on the top of the cake?
<blink>Happy Birthday!</blink>
should do it for an older model cake. Otherwise you'll need to use this

with

Happy Birthday!

In combination with these any of these answers, you could put just five candles on the cake. Light the first two, leave the next two unlit, and then light the last one. This is the binary representation of 25. Besides being geeky, it will leave more space on the cake for your writing/drawing too.
^ ^ ^

Spell out "SGFwcHkgYmlydGhkYXkK" in icing and tell him that he'll have to base64 decode it.
How about a simple
Happy ++age
10 PRINT "HAPPY BIRTHDAY"
20 GOTO 10
Put a bug inside of the cake to make it more realistic. That, or in the writing you can mangle the code of your choice so that it doesn't compile correctly. To be very devious you can make it compile but throw runtime errors or even -- gasp -- no apparent compile or runtime errors at all but flawed logic that will force him wake up in the middle of the night to "debug" the cake.
while (true) {
print "Happy Birthday!";
wait(1yr); // or work/sleep/run
age++;
}
EDIT : All programmers are immortal but eventually somebody will interrupt with Ctrl-C
or throw
some kind of OutofLifeException
.
while (alive)
would make more sense. - Wallacoloo
while (alive) ...
is less depressing. ;-) - Bevan
Give him an un-iced cake and tell him that, due to a last minute critical bug, you had to pull the icing feature to make your deadline.
 IDE? bugs? decorative icing ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ source code top cake layer ||||||||||||||||||||||| compiled source filler icing ----------------------- runtime bottom cake layer ||||||||||||||||||||||| machine code platter ========================= hardware
May include exterior coating (GUI).
Give him flour, eggs, sugar, etc .. a recipe and tell him its open source, sorry ... he has to configure and build it himself.
Then ask for patches.
--enable-shared --enable-cocoa --enable-peanut-butter.jar
? He'll definitely want --disable-dependency-tracking
which "speeds up one-time build" :) - Daniel Trebbien
Use a QRCode -- then you can encode any message, website, etc. He should already have the application to read it in his smartphone with camera.
if(isBirthday()){
if(age > 16)
{
ALL_NIGHT = true;
}else{
PECK_ON_CHEEK = true;
}
System.out.println("Happy " + age + ", Birthday boy!");
}else{
System.out.println("Nice try!");
}
Awww! That's adorable. There is no code for Happy Birthday, But you could write his age in binary and put a goto before it. It's not real code together, but it gets the message across, e.g.
GOTO
011001
You can use the windows calculator in expert mode for getting the age into binary with a single click. The above is binary for 25 (since you mentioned he'd turn that in a comment).
You should put a Unix timestamp on the cake with seconds passed since he was born. That's all my creative mind has got. :(
The cake was a HUGE success and he enjoyed every bite. But most of all, he loved the "actionscript birthday message" that graced the top of it! I wanted to thank you all for your suggestions. I have printed them and will make many more "coded" cakes as the holidays go by. I really want to do the heart "equation" for valentines day! I took Péter Török's idea and tailored it for Andrew's birthday cake (I asked a programmer to help me make it fit on the cake!). Needless to say, Andrew and all of his programmer buddies got a kick out of it and gobbled up the dark chocolate, peanut butter cake that was underneath all that nerdy icing-y goodness! Here is proof:
The cake!
Andrew with his cake!
Tania (me!) with my creation!
Binary candles!
So thank you ALL again! I had a lot of fun making the cake and thanks to all of you, he'll never forget it, or this birthday! -Tania

Since I saw your guy does stuff with Flash, he might appreciate decorations around the side of your "layer cake" with this familiar interface (the layers and timeline panels):
There's a few cheeky things you could do, like name the layers for yourselves or make as many layers as there are in the actual cake, or putting the "keyframe" (the red line and dot) at his age. (instead of frame 1)
This is a variant of the "iconic" hello world program, that is more or less the first program anyone would write when learning a new programming langague. When compiled and the executed, it would print the string "Happy birthday."
Well, far from awesome but I think I would appreciate it. Bonus for texting with a typewriter-like style and the coloring :-)
Old school C (original K&R )
main( )
{
printf("happy birthday!\n");
}
Standard-conforming, maybe not as iconic, and perhaps too long on a cake.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("Happy birthday!\n");
return 0;
}
Or in the style of the famous anonymous ioccc entry:
int i;main(){for(;i["]<i;++i){--i;}"];read('-'-'-',i+++"Happ\
y Birthday\n",'/'/'/'));}read(j,i,p){write(j/p+p,i---j,i/i);}
| |_ () \/ [- `/ () |_|
If he's a fan of best practices you could serve up a more modular cake:
The Cake is a lie The Cake is a lie The Cake is a lie
A nice reference to the game "Portal" and the UK-Series "The IT-Crowd" :D
Example: http://u.nu/6m9n7
If he likes lolcats, forget the cake and just give him a note saying “I MADE YOU A CAKE BUT I EATED IT :(”
If he's also a gamer, just have a plate with the note 'There is no cake' - he'll get it.
The problem you'll find is that generally Happy Birthday isn't very exciting. It will generally look like this:
print ("Happy Birthday");
Happy Initialized Day !
Do you know what language he uses at work? If you do, you could adapt any of the fantastic examples on this page [1] to write a little program to print out "Happy Birthday!"
If you don't know what programming language he likes best, the C# example below is a pretty solid fallback choice since it has a lot of good programmer gunk in it but it is still very clear what will happen.
public class HelloWorld
{
static int Main()
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Happy Birthday!");
}
}
[1] http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Computer_programming/Hello_worldthis.Cake.Label = "Happy Birthday!";
foreach(var Candle in Cake.GetCandles())
Penelope.Kiss(Mike);
What about <blink>Happy Birthday!</blink>
?
Mmmm ... make cup-cakes with alternate black/white icing such that black represents 1, and white represents 0. Then arrange them to represent the binary equivalent of 'Happy Birthday'
01001000011000010111000001110000011110010010000001000010011010010111001001110100
01101000011001000110000101111001
Would be one bunch of cup-cakes to bake though ... or you might even use empty cups to represent the 0s
For what it's worth, it's thoughtful of you
sudo shout 'Happy Birthday!'
Or do it in Objective-C if he likes Macs and stuff ;p
- (Party)birthday:(Person)person age:(NSInteger *)age {
Party *yours = [Party initWithPerson:person];
[yours celebrate];
return yours;
}
/* call party */
[[self birthday:john age:25] eatCake];
Thanks everyone! There are some great ideas so far. I did google ideas for the cake, but wanted to come straight to the source and see if you guys had anything fresh. Keep them coming! I love the binary ideas - thank you for the link to the text creator.
Oh, and I am not using my real name here, in case he checks this! Shhhhhh!
:)
As to the other Portal references, promise him a cake, send him through many tasks to get this cake, then only show him a picture.
He'll cherish the thought more than the cake that way :D

Well, programmers are almost always constrained by deadlines. More often than not it is not met ;).
So your cake could say "Congrats - Milestone 25 reached on time"
Model the Tower of Hanoi problem: Have three small cakes of various heights, and stick a gingerbread stick through the center of each cake.
(I knew a computer science grad student named Adam who did something like this at a party for a prospective grad students. He called it "Hanoi Surprise.")
Simply take him to one Good Restaurant for candle light dinner and say "Happy Birthday Sweetheart".
if ( u_has_birthday_and_u_know_it() )

Or you can write this:

}
string str = "yadhtribyppah";
char[] charArray = new char[str.Length];
int len = str.Length - 1;
for (int i = 0; i <= len; i++)
charArray[i] = str[len - i];
Console.WriteLine(new string(charArray));
I saw you said he teaches Flash
..
maybe something like this:
gotoAndPlay("bedroom");
in Flash gotoAndPlay() used to be a way to send the play head to a particular frame in the timeline where "bedroom" would be the frame label.
Just type the following on the cake:
010010000110000101110000011100000111100100100000<PHONE_NUMBER>10100101110010011101000110100001100100<PHONE_NUMBER>111001
It means Happy Birthday!

How about some scripting language code?
do
me.eatSlice(cakeLib.getBirthdayCake())
while not full and (me.CanSee(codeOnCake))

Console.WriteLine("Here is you birth day cake.Enjoy");
Thread.Sleep(2000);

Every programmer, while he/she is a beginner, almost always write a program that just prints "Hello World".
Just like:
int main()
{
printf("Hello World");
return 0;
}
Why not write Hello World
on the cake?
Here is a table where you can get all the Decimal (or Octal or Hex) values for the letters: link text [1]

Good luck!
[1] http://www.roubaixinteractive.com/PlayGround/Binary_Conversion/Binary_To_Text.aspI'd recommend 'Happy Birthday' in binary, which is;

It's not code, but it is the electronic circuit that stores 1 bit of memory. A programmer might appreciate it, and it would look cool on a cake.
That, and if he doesn't recognize it you can feel smart when you explain it to him >:)
[1] http://images.google.com/images?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&=&q=flip%20flop%20schematicIs he interested in any video games? Get an image from one of them. You can make a picture cake at most cake shops:

Assuming his name is John, and it's his 25th birthday:
john.age++;
assert(john.
age == 25);
Short enough for a cake, and it depicts the event.

If My.Birthday > lastBirthday Then
Response.Write("Happy Birthday")
Else
Response.Write("The cake is a lie")
End if
Simple and probably wrong, but combines Portal and programming.
Why not to write something shorter in Assembly? It is classier to me :)
What about the following?
using System.Love;
using System.Birthday;
namespace YourCake
{
public class HappyBirthday : ILoveable
{
void SayMillionTimes()
{
for (int i=0;i<1000000;i++)

}
}
}
'(HAPPY BIRTHDAY!)

Try something like this [1]
[1] http://blog.nj.com/digitallife/2008/04/geek_romance_proposing_via_vid.htmlIf he's familiar with JavaScript, maybe packer will be some alternative
eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,r){e=String;if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--)r[c]=k[c]||c;k=[function(e){return r[e]}];e=function(){return'\w+'};c=1};while(c--)if(k[c])p=p.replace(new RegExp('\b'+e(c)+'\b','g'),k[c]);return p}('4("0 3 1 2!");',5,5,'Happy|to|you|birthday|alert'.split('|'),0,{}))
That's packed JavaScript code that will return:
alert("Happy birthday to you!");

Does he still remember his birtday? If I were you I made a cake which like a computer. And I wrote its screen "today is your birtday still remember this?":P But I'm surprising not the only programmer that has a girlfriend but also his girlfriend loves him=) And also his girlfriend is a human being =). You should be sure you love enough to make him happy=)


Wikipedia-based Computer Science subject headings (WikiCSSH)7 [5]. WikiCSSH was created with a mixed methods approach to extracting CS-relevant subject headings, which included breadth first search in the WCT; followed by manual filtering, community detection, embedding-based classification, and human-created rules for removing false positives. Finally, the construction of WikiCSSH benefited from the automatic association of Wikipedia pages with Wikipedia categories, which we used for the automatic expansion of WikiCSSH to include pages affiliated with Wikipedia categories into WikiCSSH.

Have you spent years cultivating a strong network of allies who can help you #nurture your personal job #portfolio so that you can best navigate the modern competitive #jobscape? Bad news: it might all be worthless when artificially intelligent job recruiters start Skyping you and asking you difficult questions instead.
And here’s the usual MONTAG “surprise”: it’s already happening. Robot Vera is a Russian AI-enabled service that “finds resumes, conducts interviews and gets you the top candidates 10 times faster than a human.”
Robot Vera has already conducted 1,400,000 phone interviews and 10,000 video interviews for real companies who are hiring real people. And you’re probably going to be interviewed by someone (“something”?) like Vera in the coming years.
Tell me about an accomplishment you are most proud of
Robot Vera seems to approach the whole process just like your office’s living, breathing, unreliable, partisan - and, most importantly - expensive HR officer. Here’s what she does:
• Make a selection of the most appropriate candidates from a database
• Gives out vacancy details, asks & answers candidates’ questions
So far, so bot-tastic. But here’s the interesting kicker:
• Vera holds video interviews with short-listed candidates & recognises their emotions.
You can try out an example interview here.. Gird your loins for questions like, “describe leadership in one sentence without using the word ‘lead’,” and prepare for answers peppered with bon mots like, “wow, inspiring! What inspires you?” Before you’re bid farewell with “have a prosperous day ahead.”
According to an interview with Bloomberg, Vera is being taught to recognise “anger, pleasure, and disappointment,”, and while this might sound like useful stuff, it could be argued that any human applicant who expresses anger or disappointment in a job interview is unlikely to land that dream job.
Excited by the prospect of landing a plum role for the likes of PepsiCo, Ikea, and L’Oréal - companies that apparently Robot Vera has already found jobs for - we nervously re-arranged our new tie, gripped our CV and tried an interview with Vera.
It went great. To the question, “tell me how you grow the net promoter score of your accounts?” we answered “by filling a huge room with a million monkeys trained to use a laptop,” and to her credit, Robot Vera nodded thoughtfully and moved onto the next question. We’ll let you know if we hear back - fingers crossed!
What can you offer us that someone else can not?
So how does this tech work? What’s Vera and her ilk doing? From the looks of the above video, she’s listening to the words you speak and comparing them to desired keywords; observing your face and fitting your facial expression into the categories of “angry, sad, surprised and happy” - the most basic of the Seven Dwarfs. She’s also - possibly - listening to the tone of your voice to judge the truthiness of your answers.
For a more techno-favoured experience of interviewee pressure, try Berghain Trainer, a website that sort-of-accurately recreates getting into Berlin’s “coolest” club - a notoriously hyper-stressful experience.
In this half-fun, half-ominous game, the “doorman” makes a decision on whether you pass or fail. It will bring back the pangs of anxiety anyone who has ever tried (and, cough, ever failed) to enter will recognise.
Berghain Trainer appears to use very face and voice similar tech whilst recreating the infamously high pressure moment where you have to convince the person on the door you are worthy of stepping onto the hallowed dancefloor.
(If you’re not successful, don’t fret - not many people are, as evidenced by a series of videos of people failing repeatedly on Youtube)
Imagine all the social situations - hotel check-ins, credit card applications, etc - where a simple check-list of questions and judgement calls need to be made. Put aside the (debatable) extra pressure of whether you’re “cool” enough to enter, and Berghain Trainer is a reasonably useful introduction to the way computers may soon make important decisions about your future prospects.
As ever, at this point you should be able to hear a shrill, high-pitched scream - it’s the sound of existential terror emerging directly from the limbic lobes of HR workers the world over. And the fear-fuelled question is a hoary old one: are our jobs going to be STOLEN by robots?
Even leaving aside the stretched-truth answers we give when trying to impress someone, each of us is a bundle of ticks, “tells” and hesitations, ripe for a computer to identify - and it makes sense that the coldly analytical eye and ear of a computer could help you get - or deny you - the job of your dreams much more accurately than a human could. Or could it?
Before we percolate on the particular irony of the people who decide who gets a job losing their own jobs, we need to dig just a little bit deeper.
Can you describe to me an example of a time you had to find out whether something was truly successful?
Has your voice ever quavered when under stress or duress in a job interview? As this writer can emphatically confirm, when one’s frightening deficiencies in mathematical ability are disastrously revealed during an interview for a bank teller position, a wobbly voice at the wrong time pretty much seals the deal on your chance of landing a job.
So surely a computer can listen carefully to our voices when asked a stress-inducing question?
The TruthPhone - and similar technologies - have been available since the 1990s, and was fascinatingly featured in a New York Times article where a journalist used the phone to ask tough questions to senior politicians. Amusingly, the politicians seemed to actually believe their lies and the phone registered them as telling the truth..
You can get in on the fun yourself: LiarLiar is an open source software plug-in which is possibly and disconcertingly named after the Jim Carrey movie of the same name and allows anyone to screen a recording of human speech for lies.
According to LiarLiar’s website, “the human voice produces microtremors that fall in the 8 HZ to 9 HZ range. When the speaker is stressed, physical changes such as increased bloodflow cause the audio in this range to shift to the 11 HZ to 12 HZ range.” The software detects those tremors and you, the devious user, decide where to hire or fire the unwitting participant.
However - here’s where a large question mark appears and hovers ominously over everything to do with Voice Stress Analysis (or VSA). In a string of scientific studies - including a paper bluntly titled “Charlatanry in forensic speech science” - the evidence stacks up against the use of VSA as even a halfway useful tool.
According to the USA’s National Institute of Justice, only 15% of lies about drug use were detected in a field test using Voice Stress Analysis technology. More worryingly, the software incorrectly identified 8% of people as being hepped up on goofballs even though they were not.
Let’s face it: if the best technology can’t tell if someone is telling the truth or not, despite saucer-eyes and full-facial gurning, what chance do us calm, sober, responsible citizens (ahem) have?
For now at least, VSA continues to be described by Humanity’s Most Almighty Tome (OK, Wikipedia) as “pseudoscientific technology” and that feels about right. And yet of course, it’s being used in criminal cases - upon his arrest, George Zimmerman, shooter of Trayvon Martin, was administered a VSA test.
“Where do you see yourself in 157Bn milliseconds?”
The ability of AI to listen to, recognise and parse our voices is beyond doubt, as anyone who has pranked an Alexa-owning friend with the phrase “Alexa, play Phil Collins’ “In The Air Tonight” on repeat” can attest.
But who sets the questions? And who decides which answers as best? And what about if the interviewee is a smart-arse who answers questions with questions?
Do we want to live in a world where the douchebag who beat us to the job we want is the sensible candidate with the sharp crease in their grey slacks who has answers that play it utterly, tediously straight?
It’s a gloomy prospect that humanity, despite AI-HR appearing to be as dubiously fallible as, erm, humans, will plough forward in this furrow regardless. Because, as recent history has shown, doubling down on decisions that look increasingly ill-informed as time passes definitely works out fine.
As ever, this emerging technology doesn’t smell so much of “enormous HR sector job-cull” as it does of “re-alignment of existing human resource management strategy.” And lo, so far, Robot Vera seems to mainly do the slow, dirty work of weeding out bad applicants (Bloomberg says that it narrows the field to the best 10%) rather than posing smug Google-style teasers like “how many golf balls would fill a school bus?” (Don’t worry, there will always be plenty middle-managers who are happy to luxuriate in your agony after asking one of those.)
Just as with AI music composition, movie script writing and, heck, pretty much all other jobs, the most likely outcome is that AI will do the boring stuff and the humans will find a way to fill the rest of the time. Humans, remember, always find a way to fill time with work.
Until then, perhaps we should fight fire with fire. When you’re approached over LinkedIn by an automated HR-bot about a job you’re perfect for, MONTAG’s strong recommendation is that you reply immediately with an absurd and automatically-generated counter-recruitment message, courtesy of LinkedIn Message Generator.
Because let’s face it, would you reply to a job approach that sounded like this?

Three arrested from Eden Gardens for betting during India-Bangladesh test match
Cash amounting to ₹1,40,000, six mobile phones, one laptop were seized
by PTIFive people were arrested, including three from Eden Gardens, for allegedly betting using a mobile phone app during India’s first day-night test match, police said.
The test match was being played between India and Bangladesh.
Two of their associates were arrested from a hotel in southern part of the city’s Sudder Street, a senior police official said.
Sambhu Dayal, Mukesh Gare and Chetan Sharma were arrested by anti-rowdy section of Kolkata Police from G1 Block of Eden Gardens, he said.
“We had a tip-off that there was a live betting taking place among some spectators at the Eden Gardens while watching the Test match. Our officers were keeping eyes open at blocks F1 & G1. And after prolonged watch they arrested three persons from the galleries,” the IPS officer said.
“Grilling the three, our officers arrested Abhishek Suwalka, Ayub Ali from the hotel from where they were operating the betting,” he added.
Cash amounting to ₹1,40,000, six mobile phones, one laptop were seized from the hotel rooms, the police officer said.
“We have started a probe into the matter and trying to find out whether they are part of any big betting racket or not, he said, adding that a specific case under relevant sections of the IPC, and West Bengal Gambling Act was registered at the Maidan Police Station.


Jacey Tupa
So happy you stopped by and welcome to my portfolio.
Get to Know Me
Welcome! My name is Jacey Tupa and I recently moved to Portland, Oregon from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Born and raised in North Dakota to a white, middle-class, Catholic family, I always had desires of a more cultured, city life. After earning my Bachelors in Psychology from the University of North Dakota I packed my car, and made my first big move to the metropolitan of Minneapolis, Minnesota. I forgot to mention this was done with no money in my pocket, no job offers, and no sense of where I was going. I learned so much about myself, and life, living in a larger area, but some of the lessons were tough. Anxiety and depression became a prevalant part of my day to day flow. After a four year battle, I found the balance I needed to start going after my new goal: coding. Check out my Explore tab to learn where I've been, where I want to go, and how that influences the journey I pursue every day.
Enjoy.


Hi <%= @user_name %> ,
Firstly, thank you for choosing Music Radio Creative for your audio branding! We are all delighted to help. Cliff has worked with us to bring a package that would cover all the audio needs that a podcaster could have and I am confident that you will be very pleased with the final result.
What happens next?
1. We do need to get some information from you in order to enable us to write your scripts (questions will be included at the end of this email).
2. After that we will get back to you with proposed scripts for your podcast intro and outro. We will send you at least 3 suggestions for each. This should take us no more than 3-4 working days.
3. Once we get the scripts approved by you we will then work on a proposed audio solution - in other words the audio imaging of your scripts. We will send over to you a proposal with some music samples to have a listen to (again usually 3 suggestions as a minimum), voice over choices (we have over 100 of them on our books so no doubt we will be able to choose the right one!)
4. After this is agreed we will start the work and have your audio completed within 3-5 working days.
All of the audio is sent to you as a download link and available in the audio format of your choice.
As we want to ensure that you are 100% satisfied we will honour any minor changes at this stage (changing an effect, removing it etc.) - as we guide you all along, send you plenty of samples - the final piece shouldn’t really be a surprise - you will get an idea of what it sounds like at each step above so I am confident that final piece will be just perfect!
The price you have paid includes the following:
- - A fully produced intro and outro for your podcast tagged with talk over music made to the length of your choice. (Please note however that the full music bed on its own is not included by default).
- - Script writing service for all audio elements.
- - Email consultation to guide you through all of the choices.
We bring together the talent of producers, script writers, voice overs and an audio branding specialist to create your audio image.There are some exciting ways in which you can expand your package. Those include:
- - Sung audio (we work with very talented singers who are pros in this industry).
- - Music bed provided on its own and licensed for your further royalty free use on any additional projects (additional £60 - approx. $97).
- - Expanding your package to include more audio elements - depending on the needs your podcast has.
- - Using multiple voices in one cut (price depends on the script length here).
- - If any of the above is of interest to you - let me know and I can quote you for any additional options.
We are nearly there!
In order to start writing scripts for your podcast audio could you please get back to me with the following information:
1. Name of your podcast and the website address.
2. Who is your target audience (their age, gender, profession)?
3. What will your podcast be about? A brief summary that includes some example topics/themes that will be present.
4. Is there any specific call to action that you would like your listeners to follow? (It is most effective to have one main call to action as multiple calls to action dilute the effectiveness). For additional call to actions it would be worth considering adding feature jingles for that purpose.
5. Is there anything that MUST be included in your intro or outro? For example some podcasters use tag lines, have sponsors that need to be mentioned etc.
6. Did you have any script ideas yourself? It would be good to see them if yes!
7. Send me some audio samples of what you like and what you don’t like. (those could be intros used by other podcasters, pieces of music, songs etc. - anything that is audio counts here!)
8. If your podcast already runs - do you currently have an intro and outro? Send it over to me and let me know what you like/dislike about it.
9. Walk me through a podcast episode step by step.
10. Do you have a preference on voice artist - British, American accent – Male or Female?
11. Do you provide any resources free or paid on the website that you want to invite the listener to at the end of the show?
12. Why should the listener tune in?
13. Why should they come back to listen again?
14. Are there any styles of music you particularly like? If so please provide a link to something you like and we can find samples for you to review that will work with the scripts once completed.
15. Do you use social media? If so please provide those links.
We are here to help!
I look forward to hearing back from you - in the meantime please do contact me if there is anything you need a clarification on!

Aerodactyl is a great end-game cleaner with solid dual STAB, solid offensive stats, blazing 130 base speed, and a scary 25.4% crit rate. It also boasts useful typing against the common normal and ground attacks. However, Aerodactyl lacks a powerful burst damage option like Tauros' STAB Hyper Beam. This means that Aerodactyl relies more on forced switches and critical hits to muscle through its counterplay. Aerodactyl is also weak to common coverage moves like rock, ice, and electric attacks. Despite these drawbacks, Aerodactyl is one of the scariest Pokemon to switch into in the format when its checks and counters are worn down in the end-game.
- Wing Attack
- Rock Slide
- Hyper Beam
- Razor Wind
Wing Attack and Rock Slide are basic STAB moves that hit most of the metagame at least neutrally. Hyper Beam is a bit stronger than its STABs so it can finish off threats in a pinch. Razor Wind can be used to ignore Reflect boosts and prevent them from walling Aerodactyl. It is important to use the threat of Aerodactyl's speed to force switches, as a lot of Aerodactyl's strength comes from the threat of critical hits and potential 2hko's on the switch.
Fire Blast can burn GolDon on the switch, making them easier to switch into. Agility can be used to circumvent paralysis speed drops. Aerodactyl can also utilize Reflect itself, though it isn't advised because of the many special weaknesses that Aerodactyl has.
Golem/Rhydon/Onix: These all resist Aerodactyl's dual STAB and coverage options. Fire Blast burns are not appreciated, however.
Starmie: Avoids the 2hko from Aerodactyl's STABs and can threaten a Thunder Wave or BoltBeam attack.
Nidoqueen: Its high physical bulk can heal off Aerodactyl's physical attacks and threaten a Blizzard in response.
Omastar: Can heal through Aerodactyl's dual STAB and use powerful water or ice attacks.
Clefable: Its good overall bulk can let it heal through Aerodactyl's attacks and threaten a Thunder Wave or BoltBeam in response.
Bulky attackers: Bulky offensive threats like Slowbro, Tauros, Snorlax, etc. can threaten to trade with Aerodactyl if they aren't weakened enough.

The Garbage-First (G1) garbage collector is fully supported in Oracle JDK 7 update 4 and later releases.  It meets garbage collection (GC) pause time goals with high probability, while achieving high throughput. Whole-heap operations, such as global marking, are performed concurrently with the application threads. This prevents interruptions proportional to heap or live-data size.
The G1 collector achieves high performance and pause time goals through several techniques.
The heap is partitioned into a set of equal-sized heap regions, each a contiguous range of virtual memory. G1 performs a concurrent global marking phase to determine the liveness of objects throughout the heap. After the mark phase completes, G1 knows which regions are mostly empty. It collects in these regions first, which usually yields a large amount of free space. This is why this method of garbage collection is called Garbage-First. As the name suggests, G1 concentrates its collection and compaction activity on the areas of the heap that are likely to be full of reclaimable objects, that is, garbage. G1 uses a pause prediction model to meet a user-defined pause time target and selects the number of regions to collect based on the specified pause time target.
The regions identified by G1 as ripe for reclamation are garbage collected using evacuation. G1 copies objects from one or more regions of the heap to a single region on the heap, and in the process both compacts and frees up memory. This evacuation is performed in parallel on multi-processors, to decrease pause times and increase throughput. Thus, with each garbage collection, G1 continuously works to reduce fragmentation, working within the user defined pause times. This is beyond the capability of both the previous methods. CMS (Concurrent Mark Sweep ) garbage collection does not do compaction. ParallelOld garbage collection performs only whole-heap compaction, which results in considerable pause times.
It is important to note that G1 is not a real-time collector. It meets the set pause time target with high probability but not absolute certainty. Based on data from previous collections, G1 does an estimate of how many regions can be collected within the user specified target time. Thus, the collector has a reasonably accurate model of the cost of collecting the regions, and it uses this model to determine which and how many regions to collect while staying within the pause time target.
The first focus of G1 is to provide a solution for users running applications that require large heaps with limited GC latency. This means heap sizes of around 6GB or larger, and stable and predictable pause time below 0.5 seconds.
Applications running today with either the CMS or the ParallelOld garbage collector would benefit switching to G1 if the application has one or more of the following traits.
G1 is planned as the long term replacement for the Concurrent Mark-Sweep Collector (CMS). Comparing G1 with CMS, there are differences that make G1 a better solution. One difference is that G1 is a compacting collector. G1 compacts sufficiently to completely avoid the use of fine-grained free lists for allocation, and instead relies on regions. This considerably simplifies parts of the collector, and mostly eliminates potential fragmentation issues. Also, G1 offers more predictable garbage collection pauses than the CMS collector, and allows users to specify desired pause targets.
If you are interested in helping improving G1, please try it and give feedback via OpenJDK and the<EMAIL_ADDRESS>mailing list.

Tracing
This is the same as normal ASP, but you can't do page output (just Trace.axd).
<system.web>
<trace enabled="true" writeToDiagnosticsTrace="true" localOnly="true" requestLimit="100" />
Default requestLimit is 10. To redirect System.Diagnostics.Trace to asp.net tracing (Version=2.0.3600.0 in .net 2/3.5, <IP_ADDRESS> in .net 4/4.5):
<system.diagnostics>
<trace>
<listeners>
<add name="WebPageTraceListener" type="System.Web.WebPageTraceListener, System.Web,
Version=<IP_ADDRESS>, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
</listeners>
</trace>
</system.diagnostics>
In Azure Web Sites, you can log to file system ("Application Logging (File System)", set to Error or Verbose. Streaming logs are available in Visual Studio (into the Output Window), via FTP (in the "LogFiles" directory), or in the portal ("Log").
If you use custom logging (log4net, EntLib logging), log to d:\home\logfiles and the streaming still works (probably not through a corporate firewall, though!)
There is also "Application Logging (Storage)" which uses an WAWSAppLogTable Azure table store.
If you deploy to Azure Web Roles, the transform will be:

Serves 2
A simple but classy meal for two – duck breast roasted with Christmas spices and served with a rich, citrus sauce.
For the duck, preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7.
Dry fry all the spices in a frying pan for 1-2 minutes until the spices start to release their oils. Place in a spice grinder or pestle and mortar and grind to a powder. Sprinkle the spice mix all over the duck. Heat a large frying pan and add the duck skin-side down. Cook slowly until the fat has rendered out.
Place the duck in the oven until cooked through (8-12 minutes depending on the size of the duck breast). Check the duck is cooked by piercing with a skewer. The juices should run clear. Remove from the oven and set aside to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
For the sauce bigarade, simmer the strips of orange and lemon in a little water for 5 minutes to soften. Then turn up the heat and boil to evaporate excess water. Stir in the orange and lemon juice, reserve.
 Handle very carefully.). Add the vinegar and bubble fiercely for a moment, stirring to make a thick syrup. Stir in the stock and let it bubble up again. Turn down the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the reserved zest and juice and reheat.
Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, a little at a time, to thicken the sauce.
For the cavolo nero, heat a sauté pan and add the butter and 2 tablespoons of water. Once hot add the cavolo nero and cook for 2 minutes, until wilted.
To serve, cut the duck into 8 pieces and place on a serving plate. Add the cavolo nero and pour over the sauce.


xsetwacom
Section: User Commands (1)Updated: xf86-input-wacom 0.13.0
Index Return to Main Contents
NAME
xsetwacom - commandline utility to query and modify wacom driver settings.
SYNOPSIS
xsetwacom [options] [command [arguments]]
DESCRIPTION
This program queries or changes properties on the devices loaded by the wacom driver. The modification of properties happens at runtime and is not persistent through X server restarts.
GENERAL OPTIONS
- -d, --display display_name
- Connect to the X server specified in display_name; see X(7).
- -h, --help
- Prints a short help.
- -v, --verbose
- Enable verbose output, useful for debugging.
- -V, --version
-
Display version number and exit.
COMMANDS
Allowed commands are list, get, and set. The command may be specified with our without one or two preceding dashes, i.e. --list is equivalent to -list and list.
LIST COMMANDS
- list devices
- List known devices. Only input devices managed by the wacom driver are listed.
- list parameters
- List known parameters. List all parameters suitable for the get or the set command. Note that not all parameters are available on all device types.
- list modifiers
-
List the available list of modifiers to be used when setting key or button
actions.
GET COMMANDS
- get device_name parameter
- Get the current settings for the parameter on the given device. Note that not all parameters are available on all device types. The special parameter name "all" may be provided to display all current settings on the device.
- By default, options are printed on the commandline in the respective format.
- The output format may be altered with one of the following options:
- -s, --shell
- Display the output in shell format, i.e. as shell commands to xsetwacom to reproduce the same parameter.
- -x, --xconf
-
Display the output in xorg.conf format, i.e. as option lines that may be
added to the InputDevice section in the xorg.conf.
SET COMMANDS
- set device_name parameter [value]
-
Set the parameter value on the given device to the value provided. Note that
not all parameters are writable, some are read-only and result in an error
when trying to be modified.
PARAMETERS
Not all parameters are available on all tools. Use the get command with the parameter or "all" parameter for specific input tool applicable parameters and current settings.
- Area x1 y1 x2 y2
- Set the tablet input area in device coordinates in the form top left x/y and bottom right x/y. Top left and bottom right are defined in the device's native orientation, regardless of the actual rotation currently applied. Input outside of these coordinates will be clipped to the edges of the area defined. Default: 0 0 x2 y2; with x2 and y2 tablet specific.
- Button button-number [mapping]
-
Set a mapping for the specified button-number. Mappings take the form of
either a single numeric button or an 'action' to be performed. If no mapping
is provided, the default mapping is restored.
Numeric button mappings indicate what X11 button number the given button-number should correspond to. For example, a mapping of "3" means a press of the given button-number will produce as a press of X11 button 3 (i.e. right click).
Action mappings allow button presses to perform many events. They take the form of a string of keywords and arguments. For example, "key +a +shift b -shift -a" converts the button into a series of keystrokes, in this example "press a, press shift, press and release b, release shift, release a". In addition to the "key" keyword, "button" and "modetoggle" are also recognized. Multiple keywords may be present in one action if desired: for example "key +ctrl button 5 key -ctrl".
- BindToSerial [serial|0]
- Bind the device to the tool with the specified serial number. Once bound, the device will ignore events from other tools. A serial of 0 means the device is unbound and will react to any tool of the matching type. Default: 0
- MapToOutput [output]
-
Map the tablet's input area to a given output (e.g. "VGA1"). Output names may
either be the name of a head available through the XRandR extension, or an
X11 geometry string of the form WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y. To switch to the next
available output, the "next" keyword is also supported. This will cycle
between the individual monitors connected to the system, and then the entire
desktop. The mapping may be reset to the entire desktop at any time with the
output name "desktop". Users of the NVIDIA binary driver should use the output
names "HEAD-0" and "HEAD-1" until the driver supports XRandR 1.2 or later.
The output mapping configuration is a onetime setting and does not track output reconfigurations; the command needs to be re-run whenever the output configuration changes. When used with tablet rotation, the tablet must be rotated before it is mapped to the new screen. This parameter is write-only and cannot be queried.
- Mode Absolute|Relative
- Set the device mode as either Relative or Absolute. Relative means pointer tracking for the device will function like a mouse, whereas Absolute means the pointer corresponds to the device's actual position on the tablet or tablet PC screen. Default: Absolute for stylus, eraser and tablet PC touch; Relative for cursor and tablet touch.
- PressureCurve x1 y1 x2 y2
- A Bezier curve of third order, composed of two anchor points (0,0 and 100,100) and two user modifiable control points that define the curve's shape. Raise the curve (x1<y1 x2<y2) to "soften" the feel and lower the curve (x1>y1 x2>y2) for a "firmer" feel. Sigmoid shaped curves are permitted (x1>y1 x2<y2 or x1<y1 x2>y2). Default: 0 0 100 100, a linear curve; range of 0 to 100 for all four values.
- RawSample level
- Set the sample window size (a sliding average sampling window) for incoming input tool raw data points. Default: 4, range of 1 to 20.
- Rotate none|half|cw|ccw
-
Set the tablet to the given rotation:
none: the tablet is not rotated and uses its natural rotation
half: the tablet is rotated by 180 degrees (upside-down)
cw: the tablet is rotated 90 degrees clockwise
ccw: the tablet is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwiseRotation is a tablet-wide option: rotation of one tool affects all other tools associated with the same tablet. When the tablet is physically rotated, rotate any tool to the corresponding orientation. Default: none
- Suppress level
- Set the delta (difference) cutoff level for further processing of incoming input tool coordinate values. For example a X or Y coordinate event will be sent only if the change between the current X or Y coordinate and the previous one is greater than the Suppress value. The same applies to pressure level (Z coordinate) and Tilt rotation values. With a current absolute wheel (AbsWheel) or Tilt value the delta between it and the previous value must be equal to or greater than the Suppress value in order to be sent on. Suppress is a tablet wide parameter. A specified delta level for one input tool is applied to all input tool coordinates. To disable suppression use a level of 0. Default: 2, range of 0 to 100.
- TabletDebugLevel level
- Set the debug level for this tablet to the given level. This only affects code paths that are shared between several tools on the same physical tablet. A higher level means more fine-grained debug messages, a level of 0 turns debugging off for this tool. Requires the driver to be built with debugging enabled. See also ToolDebugLevel. Default: 0, range of 0 to 12.
- TabletPCButton on|off
- If on, the stylus must be in contact with the screen for a stylus side button to work. If off, stylus buttons will work once the stylus is in proximity of the tablet (regardless of whether it is touching the screen). Default: on for Tablet PCs; off for all other models.
- ToolSerialPrevious
- Get the serial number of the tool that was last in proximity last. This serial number is updated whenever the tool goes out of proximity. If the current tool went out of proximity once, this serial number is the one of the current tool. This is a read-only parameter.
- CursorProximity distance
- sets the max distance from tablet to stop reporting movement for cursor in relative mode. Default for Intuos series is 10, for Graphire series (including Volitos) is 42. Only available for the cursor/puck device.
- Threshold level
- Set the minimum pressure necessary to generate a Button event for the stylus tip, eraser, or touch. The pressure levels of all tablets are normalized to 2048 levels irregardless of the actual hardware supported levels. This parameter is independent of the PressureCurve parameter. Default: 27, range of 0 to 2047.
- ToolDebugLevel level
-
Set the debug level for this tool to the given level. This only affects
code paths that are specific to a given tool. A higher level means more

Hey! I'm Cristian Garcia.
I am a passionate student who leads by example and aims to improve the world through technology
Learn more about meI am a passionate student who leads by example and aims to improve the world through technology
Learn more about meProject Victoria is a program that I co-founded that teaches students at John Henry High School in Richmond, California that teaches them different programming languages including Java, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
This is a program designed to educate and train entering STEM students for careers in the biosciences. In an online and in-person research experience I have gotten the chance to learn advanced molecular biology techniques.
An 8-week career development program in which I gained technical and networking skills by solving Pinterest subjected problems and by attending panels and workshops with experienced engineers.
Recruited members for a robotics team at my high school in order to participate in the Spring 2019 Pioneers in Engineering robotics competition. I helped create code in Python that was able to control a robot autonomously. We placed 6th out of 21 schools in the qualifying round and I won the 2019 PiE Scholarship which was given out to 1 senior that was participating in the competition.
Collaborated with a team of 5 people to create a website using HTML and GitHub to spread awareness about gentrification in the city of Richmond, California. This website was then presented to city officials.
Created a coding club at my high school to introduce coding students who were curious about the field, but do not have the basic resources necessary to learn about it. I taught 10 students the basics of Python and planned out weekly lesson topics. We also became the first student created club in my high schools history to obtain funding when we obtained funding for Raspberry Pi kits

Lil Reese Drops "Come Outside," 1st Song Since Being Shot in the Neck
by VladTVNews broke last week of Lil Reese suffering a gunshot wound to the neck after a hooded assailant opened fire on his Jeep. Reese was rushed to the hospital in critical condition but things are looking up for the Chicagoan. Since being released from the hospital, Reese is already back in the studio with his latest track "Come Outside," but that $1 million VladTV interview may have to wait.

Role: Team Member
In 2013, my team and I participated in Micosoft's Imagine Cup competition. Our project won us the United States Imagine Cup,
beating over 2,000 other teams and allowing us to compete in the World Finals.
Our submission, help he help, is a suite of applications to help those in need during an emergency or natural
disaster, while also assisting emergency response personnel in relief and recovery efforts.
After the competition, we saught to make help me help real. While we were successful in gaining meetings
with state and federal government officials, we eventually ran out of funding and each member of the team pursued
new opportunities.
Fortunately it appears that our project has inspired a new featureset in FEMA's official disaster response
application, so even if help me help isn't the name of the product, it's concept will be carried on to help
people in need in the future.

This part prescribes policies and procedures for describing agency needs.
As used in this part—
“Reconditioned” means restored to the original normal operating condition by readjustments and material replacement
“Remanufactured” means factory rebuilt to original specifications.
(a) In fulfilling requirements of 10 U.S.C. 2305(a)(1), 10 U.S.C. 2377, 41 U.S.C. 3306(a), and 41 U.S.C. 3307, agencies shall—
(1) Specify needs using market research in a manner designed to—
(i) Promote full and open competition (see Part 6), or maximum practicable competition when using simplified acquisition procedures, with due regard to the nature of the supplies or services to be acquired; and
(ii) Only include restrictive provisions or conditions to the extent necessary to satisfy the needs of the agency or as authorized by law.
(2) To the maximum extent practicable, ensure that acquisition officials—
(i) State requirements with respect to an acquisition of supplies or services in terms of—
(A) Functions to be performed;
(B) Performance required; or
(C) Essential physical characteristics;
(ii) Define requirements in terms that enable and encourage offerors to supply commercial items, or, to the extent that commercial items suitable to meet the agency’s needs are not available, nondevelopmental items, in response to the agency solicitations;
(iii) Provide offerors of commercial items and nondevelopmental items an opportunity to compete in any acquisition to fill such requirements;
(iv) Require prime contractors and subcontractors at all tiers under the agency contracts to incorporate commercial items or nondevelopmental items as components of items supplied to the agency; and
(v) Modify requirements in appropriate cases to ensure that the requirements can be met by commercial items or, to the extent that commercial items suitable to meet the agency’s needs are not available, nondevelopmental items.
(b) The Metric Conversion Act of 1975, as amended by the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 (15 U.S.C. 205a, et seq.), designates the metric system of measurement as the preferred system of weights and measures for United States trade and commerce, and it requires that each agency use the metric system of measurement in its acquisitions, except to the extent that such use is impracticable or is likely to cause significant inefficiencies or loss of markets to United States firms. Requiring activities are responsible for establishing guidance implementing this policy in formulating their requirements for acquisitions.
(c) To the extent practicable and consistent with Subpart 9.5, potential offerors should be given an opportunity to comment on agency requirements or to recommend application and tailoring of requirements documents and alternative approaches. Requiring agencies should apply specifications, standards, and related documents initially for guidance only, making final decisions on the application and tailoring of these documents as a product of the design and development process. Requiring agencies should not dictate detailed design solutions prematurely (see 7.101 and 7.105(a)(8)).
(d)(1) When agencies acquire products and services, various statutes and executive orders (identified in part 23) require consideration of sustainable acquisition (see subpart 23.1) including—
(i) Energy-efficient and water-efficient services and products (including products containing energy-efficient standby power devices) (subpart 23.2);
(ii) Products and services that utilize renewable energy technologies (subpart 23.2);
(iii) Products containing recovered materials (subpart 23.4);
(iv) Biobased products (subpart 23.4);
(v) Environmentally preferable products and services, including EPEAT®-registered electronic products and non-toxic or low-toxic alternatives (subpart 23.7); and
(vi) Non-ozone-depleting substances, and products and services that minimize or eliminate, when feasible, the use, release, or emission of high global warming potential hydrofluorocarbons, such as by using reclaimed instead of virgin hydrofluorocarbons (subpart 23.8).
(2) Unless an exception applies and is documented by the requiring activity, Executive agencies shall, to the maximum practicable, require the use of products and services listed in paragraph (d)(1) of this section when—
(i) Developing, reviewing, or revising Federal and military specifications, product descriptions (including commercial item descriptions) and standards;
(ii) Describing Government requirements for products and services; and
(iii) Developing source-selection factors.
(e) Some or all of the performance levels or performance specifications in a solicitation may be identified as targets rather than as fixed or minimum requirements.
(f) In accordance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794d), requiring activities must prepare requirements documents for electronic and information technology that comply with the applicable accessibility standards issued by the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board at 36 CFR Part 1194 (see Subpart 39.2).
(g) Unless the agency Chief Information Officer waives the requirement, when acquiring information technology using Internet Protocol, the requirements documents must include reference to the appropriate technical capabilities defined in the USGv6 Profile (NIST Special Publication 500-267) and the corresponding declarations of conformance defined in the USGv6 Test Program. The applicability of IPv6 to agency networks, infrastructure, and applications specific to individual acquisitions will be in accordance with the agency's Enterprise Architecture (see OMB Memorandum M-05-22 dated August 2, 2005).
(h) Agencies shall not include in a solicitation a requirement that prohibits an offeror from permitting its employees to telecommute unless the contracting officer executes a written determination in accordance with FAR 7.108(a).
(a) Agencies may select from existing requirements documents, modify or combine existing requirements documents, or create new requirements documents to meet agency needs, consistent with the following order of precedence:
(1) Documents mandated for use by law.
(2) Performance-oriented documents (e.g., a PWS or SOO). (See 2.101.)
(3) Detailed design-oriented documents.
(4) Standards, specifications and related publications issued by the Government outside the Defense or Federal series for the non-repetitive acquisition of items.
(b) In accordance with OMB Circular A-119, “Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities,” and Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995, Pub. L. 104-113 (15 U.S.C. 272 note), agencies must use voluntary consensus standards, when they exist, in lieu of Government-unique standards, except where inconsistent with law or otherwise impractical. The private sector manages and administers voluntary consensus standards. Such standards are not mandated by law (e.g., industry standards such as ISO 9000, and IEEE 1680).
Agencies shall select existing requirements documents or develop new requirements documents that meet the needs of the agency in accordance with the guidance contained in the Federal Standardization Manual, FSPM-0001; for DoD components, DoD 4120.24-M, Defense Standardization Program Policies and Procedures; and for IT standards and guidance, the Federal Information Processing Standards Publications (FIPS PUBS). The Federal Standardization Manual may be obtained from the General Services Administration (see address in 11.201(d)(1)). DoD 4120.24-M may be obtained from DoD (see 11.201(d)(2) or 11.201(d)(3)). FIPS PUBS may be obtained from the Government Printing Office (GPO), or the Department of Commerce's National Technical Information Service (NTIS) (see address in 11.201(d)(4)).
(a) 41 U.S.C. 3307(e) provides that, in accordance with agency procedures, the head of an agency may, under appropriate circumstances, require offerors to demonstrate that the items offered—
(1) Have either—
(i) Achieved commercial market acceptance; or
(ii) Been satisfactorily supplied to an agency under current or recent contracts for the same or similar requirements; and
(2) Otherwise meet the item description, specifications, or other criteria prescribed in the public notice and solicitation.
(b) Appropriate circumstances may, for example, include situations where the agency’s minimum need is for an item that has a demonstrated reliability, performance or product support record in a specified environment. Use of market acceptance is inappropriate when new or evolving items may meet the agency’s needs.
(c) In developing criteria for demonstrating that an item has achieved commercial market acceptance, the contracting officer shall ensure the criteria in the solicitation—
(1) Reflect the minimum need of the agency and are reasonably related to the demonstration of an item’s acceptability to meet the agency’s minimum need;
(2) Relate to an item’s performance and intended use, not an offeror’s capability;
(3) Are supported by market research;
(4) Include consideration of items supplied satisfactorily under recent or current Government contracts, for the same or similar items; and
(5) Consider the entire relevant commercial market, including small business concerns.
(d) Commercial market acceptance shall not be used as a sole criterion to evaluate whether an item meets the Government’s requirements.
(e) When commercial market acceptance is used, the contracting officer shall document the file to—
(1) Describe the circumstances justifying the use of commercial market acceptance criteria; and
(2) Support the specific criteria being used.
(a) While the use of performance specifications is preferred to encourage offerors to propose innovative solutions, the use of brand name or equal purchase descriptions may be advantageous under certain circumstances.
(b) Brand name or equal purchase descriptions must include, in addition to the brand name, a general description of those salient physical, functional, or performance characteristics of the brand name item that an “equal” item must meet to be acceptable for award. Use brand name or equal descriptions when the salient characteristics are firm requirements.
Agency requirements shall not be written so as to require a particular brand name, product, or a feature of a product, peculiar to one manufacturer, thereby precluding consideration of a product manufactured by another company, unless—
(a)(1) The particular brand name, product, or feature is essential to the Government’s requirements, and market research indicates other companies’ similar products, or products lacking the particular feature, do not meet, or cannot be modified to meet, the agency’s needs;
(2)(i) The authority to contract without providing for full and open competition is supported by the required justifications and approvals (see 6.302-1); or
(ii) The basis for not providing for maximum practicable competition is documented in the file (see 13.106-1(b)) or justified (see 13.501) when the acquisition is awarded using simplified acquisition procedures.
(3) The documentation or justification is posted for acquisitions over $25,000. (See 5.102(a)(6).)
(b) For multiple award schedule orders, see 8.405-6.
(c) For orders under indefinite-quantity contracts, see 16.505(a)(4).
In drafting purchase descriptions for service contracts, agency requiring activities shall ensure that inherently governmental functions (see Subpart 7.5) are not assigned to a contractor. These purchase descriptions shall—
(a) Reserve final determination for Government officials;
(b) Require proper identification of contractor personnel who attend meetings, answer Government telephones, or work in situations where their actions could be construed as acts of Government officials unless, in the judgment of the agency, no harm can come from failing to identify themselves; and
(c) Require suitable marking of all documents or reports produced by contractors.
(a) Insert the provision at 52.211-6, Brand Name or Equal, when brand name or equal purchase descriptions are included in a solicitation.
(b) Insert the provision at 52.211-7, Alternatives to Government-Unique Standards, in solicitations that use Government-unique standards when the agency uses the transaction-based reporting method to report its use of voluntary consensus standards to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (see OMB Circular A-119, “Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities”). Use of the provision is optional for agencies that report their use of voluntary consensus standards to the National Institute of Standards and Technology using the categorical reporting method. Agencies that manage their specifications on a contract-by-contract basis use the transaction-based method of reporting. Agencies that manage their specifications centrally use the categorical method of reporting. Agency regulations regarding specification management describe which method is used.

BindMenuEvent()
Syntax
BindMenuEvent(#Menu, MenuItem, @Callback())Description
Bind a menu event to a callback. It's an additional way to handle events in PureBasic, which works without problem with the regulars WindowEvent() / WaitWindowEvent() commands. A menu event can be unbinded with UnbindMenuEvent().
Parameters
#Menu The menu to bind the event to. MenuItem The menu item within the menu to bind the event to. @Callback() The callback procedure to call when the event occurs. It has to be declared like this: Procedure EventHandler() ; Code EndProcedureRegular functions like EventGadget(), EventWindow(), EventMenu(), EventType() and EventData() are available within the callback to get more information about the event.
Note: WindowEvent() and WaitWindowEvent() should never be called from inside the callback or the program can be locked or have wrong behavior.
Return value
None.
Example
Procedure TestHandler() Debug "Test menu event" EndProcedure Procedure QuitHandler() Debug "Quit menu event" End EndProcedure OpenWindow(0, 100, 100, 200, 50, "Click test", #PB_Window_SystemMenu) CreateMenu(0, WindowID(0)) MenuTitle("File") MenuItem(0, "Test") MenuItem(1, "Quit") BindMenuEvent(0, 0, @TestHandler()) BindMenuEvent(0, 1, @QuitHandler()) Repeat Event = WaitWindowEvent() Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow

Home from college on spring break, I had aquired one 10mg pill of methadone, many percocets, a 15mg temazepam capsule, and of course some pot to smoke. For most of the break I had been working intensly on a research project on Ken Kesey. For most of the week I had been taking some percs and adderall and doing quite well with my work, but being the last day where I would be sitting at home working I decided to dig into my stash and go a little crazy, hopefully with good results. Note that at this point I had a bit of a tolerance to the percocet since I had been taking it steadily for the past five days because of wisdom teeth. And of course I had been taking a little more than the prescibed dose during that time.
I woke up in the morning, and after showering and eating cereal for breakfast, I ate the 20mg adderoll xr that I knew would be keeping me focused throughout my mental journey.
T = 0 I Ingest the speed and read the newspaper.
T = 0:10 Ingest the 10mg methadone pill, speed not kicking in yet.
T = 1:00 Adderol definetly kicking in, common feeling of euphoria from the first rush of speed. I eat a snack just to make sure I have enough food in my stomach. The methadone too has started to make itself known. Very smooth and relaxed, but FOCUSED and ready to beginning some work.
T = 1:10 Wip out the books and start doing some reading, feeling excellent.
T = 2:00 Take a break from work to break up some pills. I have a 15mg capsule of temezepam that I open up, but I decide to save it for later. I chop up a percocet 5mg oxycodone and snort a few lines. About five minutes later the percocet kicks in. Very powerful rush of relaxation. More euphoria than before, all of my thoughts are about Kesey, the hippies, and parralell philosophies. I am consumed by my thoughts.
T = 3:00 Decide to take a full 5mg oxycodone percocet. Continue reading.
T = 3:20 It's about 1:30pm and I am feeling very doped up. I decide to take a break from work and smoke a bowl of pot from my bong. Some potent KB of course. This gets my appetite going so I go into my kitchen and make some sandwiches.
T = 3:40 I go upstairs and do a couple lines of the temezapam and then decide to go for a walk outside. My vision is clear, and so are my thoughts, which is very surprising. I am thinking intensly still, with thoughts racing through my head at incredible speeds. At times I feel almost trapped by my thoughts. I almost don't notice the sites outside. It is rather gray out and cold, but I can't feel any of the cold. Inside my body feels warm and comfortable.
T = 4:20 return inside to get back to reading.
T = 5:15 becoming slightly dizzy from reading, a little squirmy in the stomach. Thoughts are becoming a little less clear and concise. I take a break and as soon as I put the book and my notebook down I immeadiatly feel better. Dizzyness fading away.  I wanted to get rid of the stuff before anyone got home anyways.
T = 5:30 Feeling much better. Decide to move from reading to a little writing. I need to make a proposal for a thesis on my paper. I begin formulating ideas and they are flowing from me beautifully. Pen in hand I feel euphoric again and very inspired. I am still a long ways from completing or even writing my paper but I am already trying to form the outline in my head.
For the next few hours this great euphoric inspiration was abound in my head and I felt great. Then around dinner time I began to feel far less euphoric. The percocet had begun to wan and in another hour I felt that it left my head completely. I was still quite doped up from the methadone, and the adderoll was still keeping me energetic.  Regardless, I got a lot of work done and felt very good about the state of my research.
I guess you could say that I use the work as an excuse to justify my drug use, but it is not. I have never been a heavy opiate user and with the exception of the couple weeks after I had my surgery I never really binged on them. I prefer psychedelic drugs for the most part and as drug experiences in themselves I think they are more enlightening than any opiate could ever be. I have just always had a habit of doing school work while high. I did it consistantly throughout high school, aand did very well.
In conclusion: Everyone reacts differently to drugs in the short term and and long term. I have been fortunate enough to create a positive relationship with drugs for the most part. I try to use them for good in my life some of the time rather than just getting high and sitting around. As a prosepctive writer I try to combine periods of sober writing/editing with intoxicated ones. The change in perspective has always helped me with writing, even if it is an acedemic essay. Regardless, be careful with combining uppers and opiates. I have never had bad experiences with the combination, but there are always times during the experience where I feel dizzy and sick. Other friends of mine have vomited before from the combination. Both drugs make my stomach turn to some degree.
