Building a Culture of
Accessible and
Accountable
Data Sharing
Created by Timothy Martin / Chief Analytics Officer
Organizations all share one specific challenge...
Sharing Information
What are the challenges with data sharing initiatives?
Technical Challenges
- Dealing with legacy systems
- Bad data quality
- Limited metadata documentation
- Obscure business logic
CASE WHEN "- Key Job Information (Job Number and Status)".
"Job Type" = 'NB' THEN "- 8 - Additional Information".
"Total Construction Floor Area" *148 ELSE "
- Job Filing Facts"."Estimated Job Cost" END
Cultural Challenges
- Staff are not comfortable with the concept
- Sharing data may expose questionable logic
- Multiple versions of the truth
Multiple versions of the truth
Cultural Challenges
- Keeping everyone either formally or informally, on the same page
- Effective communication and consensus building
Cultural Challenges
- Senior staff buy-in is critical
- Analytics team must push narrative that manual approaches are unsustainable
- More sharing = More insights
- Must tie insights to business outcomes
What are the benefits of data sharing initiatives?
Benefits - Discovery
- Sharing data can help accelerate discovery of new insights
- Empower more end users to analyze data in different ways
Benefits - Consensus
- Builds consensus around challenging questions
- Forces organization to develop common methods
- Makes analysis and reporting more authoritative
Benefits - Scale
- Self-service analytics by non-quantitatively informed staff frees up analytics staff to work on more advanced projects
Benefits - Transparency
- Staff must be more accountable for their work
- Leads to better documentation of methodology
Benefits - Automation
- Data sharing forces automation
- Algorithms need to be scripted
Transition from Siloes to Federated Analytics
Transition - Initial Setbacks
- Sharing data technically is not as much the problem as making sense of it
- Analytics insights must connect with the core business issues
- Business experts may have technical gaps
- Need to meet in the middle
Transition - Training
- Knowledge transfer
- Growing pains with getting analytics staff up to speed with the business side (and vice-versa)
- Requires veteran analysts to train other analysts on data elements and reporting methods
Transition - Data Dictionaries
- Critical to have; however, often do not provide total insight into analytics operations
Transition - User Guides
- Critical from an analytics perspective
- Train staff how to use data
- Create conversation around methodology
- Work toward development of Analytics CoE
External Data Sharing
- Prepare for a high level of scrutiny from all sides
- Ensure that internal processes and methods are well documented
External Data Sharing
- #OpenData
- Requirement to publish all government data on a web-based portal
- Used by data aggregators and civic technologists
- Positive and negative outcomes
External Data Sharing
- #OpenAnalytics
- Possibly the next big initiative in government data sharing
- Driven by increased scrutiny on bias in algorithms
- Benefit: External groups can help evaluate assumptions and potential bias
External Data Sharing
- Message your data
- ...before someone else does

ANNIS
ANNIS is an open source, cross-platform (Linux, Mac, Windows), browser-based search and visualization architecture for complex multi-layer linguistic corpora with diverse types of annotation. ANNIS, which stands for ANNotation of Information Structure, was originally designed to provide access to the data of the SFB 632 - “Information Structure: The Linguistic Means for Structuring Utterances, Sentences and Texts”. It has since extended to be used by a large number of projects annotating a variety of phenomena. Since complex linguistic phenomena, such as information structure, interact on many levels, ANNIS addresses the need to concurrently annotate, query and visualize data from varied areas such as syntax, semantics, morphology, prosody, referentiality, lexis and more. For projects working with spoken language, support for audio / video annotations is also required.
Hexatomic
Hexatomic is an extensible, OS-independent platform for deep multi-layer linguistic annotation of corpora. It is being developed for sustainability, in order to support research software re-use rather than new development of software with each new research project. Using Hexatomic, linguistic research projects can implement what they need on top of an existing platform with high compatibility to other tools and pipelines. Hexatomic is funded by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) under grant number 391160252. Development is based at the Department of English Studies (Friedrich Schiller University Jena) and the Department for German Studies and Linguistics (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin).Pepper
If you need to convert corpora from one linguistic format into another, Pepper is your swiss-army knife. When your annotation tool produces a different data format from the one your analysis tool can read, Pepper is there to the rescue.
- Pepper can convert documents in a variety of linguistic formats, such as: EXMARaLDA, Tiger XML, MMAX2, RST, TCF, TreeTagger format, TEI (subset), ANNIS format, PAULA and many many more.
- Pepper comes with a plug-in mechanism which makes it easy to extend it for further formats and data manipulations.
Salt
With Salt we provide an easily understandable meta model for linguistic data as well as an open source API to store, manipulate and represent data. Salt is an abstract model, poor in linguistic semantics. As a result, it is independent of any linguistic schools or theories. The core model is graph-based, thereby keeping structural restrictions very low and allowing for a wide range of possible linguistic annotations like syntactic, morphological, coreferential annotations, and many more. You can even model your own very personal annotation as long as it fits into a graph structure (and so far we have not seen a linguistic annotation which does not). Furthermore, Salt does not depend on a specific linguistic tagset which allows you to use every tagset you like.


yet-another-email-workflow
A new email workflow to speed up email development
Designing HTML emails can be a very tiresome process, especially if you are doing all the coding
manually. You have to inline all the styles, create tables and basically party code like
it's 1999. This email workflow aims to take a little bit of that burden of your chest.
It enables you to work fast and focus on the task that is the most important: content and placement.
Features
- Browser reload on change.
- Scss stylesheets (included is the ink.css file for easier creation of responsive emails)
- HTML and text versions of the email on build
- Simple link replacement for a less error prone link creation
- Automatic Google UTM url parameter addition to links
- Test emails sent to chosen address
- Automatic image optimization
Requirements
- Node (>6)
- Mailgun (optional)
Install
- Clone this repository.
- Cd into directory
npm install
Getting started
Your most important folder where you will do the majority of work is the working folder.
There you will find an HTML file, an scss folder and a file called information.json .
The HTML file will be your starting file to construct your email. The scss folder is for the
stylesheets.
The information.json file should contain all the meta information about your email, such as
the subject, sender, url parameters, urls and so on.
All your HTML content goes into the working\index.html file.
Gulp and NPM
To avoid installing global packages, all gulp tasks are run under npm scripts.
Development
Run npm run watch . The development server will start and a browser window will open.
The two files in the working folder you should edit are the index.html and the scss\styles.scss .
You should also fill out the information in information.json .
Information.json
Here you input all the required data. If you do not wish to use the automatic url insertion feature
or the url parameter appending feature, leave the links and the parameters section as is.
Example information.json
{
"subject": "My favourite email workflow",
"senderName": "John Doe",
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>"replyTo"<EMAIL_ADDRESS>"links": {
"headerLink":"https://www.john-doe.org/header"
},
"parameters": {
"utm": {
"source": "source",
"medium": "email",
"name": "campaignName",
"term": "email,workflow",
"content": "email-about-the-content"
},
"custom": {
"jhdp": "a-custom-john-doe-parameter"
}
}
}
Build
When you wish to create the complete email, run npm run build . This will inline all the css,
replace all urls and create a nice txt version of the html as well.

Bessel Functions¶
These are probably not super useful for most users. They should all be equivalent to the scipy bessel functions. However, in C++ we wanted to avoid dependencies that would have given us these Bessel functions, so we implemented our own. The Python interface is mostly to enable unit tests that these C++ function are correct.

 Ruby hashes enumerate their values in the order that the corresponding keys are inserted. JavaScript objects are almost everything in JavaScript. It is written as name: value pairs. Ruby hashes and JavaScript objects both have very similar syntaxes. The values in both Ruby hashes and JavaScript objects can be any type of numbers, strings, arrays, even hashes or objects.
Ruby Hash example: person = { name: “Kristal”, age: 23, gender: “female” }
JavaScript Object example: var person = { name: “Kristal”, age: 23, gender: “female };
As you can see these are both very similar there are just some slight differences in the syntax. The way you access these values are also different but similar. For example how to access a ruby hash you would do person[:age] … to access a JavaScript object you would do person.age; See how accessing values are similar as well. One important difference that JavaScript has over Ruby Hashes is that in JavaScript object, it can take a function as a value. You can't do that in Ruby because methods aren’t objects and you can’t assign methods to a hash value.

Australian firefighters battle blazes, brace for more
by ReutersMELBOURNE: Australian firefighters raced on Sunday to contain widespread bushfires that have left three people dead and braced for worse conditions in the coming days as they warned the blazes will stretch their ability to protect people.
More than 70 fires were burning across New South Wales, the country’s most populous state and extreme or severe conditions are predicted for many areas on Tuesday, including the city of Sydney, the Rural Fire Service said.
“With so many fires already burning, homes and lives will be at risk,” the fire service said on Twitter.
“If you are threatened by fire, you may not get help.”
Three people have died in New South Wales since Friday when a record number of emergency-level fires were declared in the state, and at least 150 homes have been destroyed.
Five people were listed by authorities as missing on Saturday afternoon, but local media said Sunday they had now been accounted for.
At an evacuation centre in the town of Taree, Prime Minister Scott Morrison praised the work of firefighters, volunteers and members of the community but spoke of challenging days ahead.
“There is a long way to go and Tuesday is looking more difficult,” Morrison said in a televised press conference.
“And that is not only trickier in New South Wales, we know of similar types of conditions that we are seeing in Western Australia on Tuesday as well.”
This is already one of Australia’s worst bushfire seasons and it is occurring even before the start of the Southern Hemisphere summer, with parts of the country already crippled by severe drought.
By Sunday afternoon, about half of the more than 70 fires burning in New South Wales were still not under control, with one burning at an emergency level.
Further north in Queensland, more than 50 fires were burning on Sunday, with emergency warnings in place for two fires.
Thousands of residents in Queensland have been evacuated and authorities warned severe fire danger was expected on Wednesday, with little reprieve this year.
“There is really no rainfall, no significant rainfall, until at least the end of the year and possibly into the new year,” Queensland Fire and Emergency Services acting commissioner Mike Wassing told a news conference on Sunday.

September 2016 - In collaboration with the Tech Hire Eastern Kentucky (TEKY) program, I completed a 10-week accelerated boot camp. The 10-week program was split into two modules. The first being basic front-end web development using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The second and longest phase of the program was spent learning iOS development, language, and principles. I learned the Swift programming language and wrote several apps to demonstrate my ability. January 2017 - I started a new phase of the program as an Interapt Intern specializing in Information Architecture! I look forward to learning as much as I can and still very interested in Quality Assurance!
I have always had Business type positions. I have worked for a very reputable Financial Institution and also a college in the Business Department. I have over 15 years experience in business settings including: Administrative Assistant positions, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Inventory Processes, Procurement, and File Management!

Simple File Upload
Used in this context, it will only allow a set of extensions to be added.
Compact File Upload
Example to demonstrate the compact file uploader. Use directive [fdCompact]
to achieve the compact file
uploader. By default, content density is set to cozy
Max File Size
It is possible to control the size of the file through the input maxFileSize
. he size you can specify
in Byte, KB, MB, GB, TB. eg 20Byte, 2KB, 1MB etc... This feature will keep casual users from entering larger files,
but someone knowledgeable enough could potentially bypass this.
NOTE: It is possible to bypass this client-side limit so a server-side check is still necessary.
Min File Size
It is possible to control the size of the file through the input minFileSize
. The size you can specify
in Byte, KB, MB, GB, TB. eg 20Byte, 2KB, 1MB etc... This feature will keep casual users from entering smaller files
to reduce network traffic, but someone knowledgeable enough could potentially bypass this.
NOTE: It is possible to bypass this client-side limit so a server-side check is still necessary.
Invalid File Upload
An event is fired when invalid files are added through the drag and drop feature. These files can be retrieved and
displayed to the user at will.

Make a solid deodorant that performs similarly to commercial products.
This set of instructions include two active components and three inactive components. The active components are what make the deodorant function either by reducing bacteria or adding a pleasant smell. The inactive components just help as a medium to hold the active components in place on your body.
Baking Soda or Sodium bicarbonate is used as an antimicrobial. [1] It's a common household product and is considered safe. Since it's also a weak base if too much is used it can cause mild skin irritation. Reduce this ingredient as needed.
Essential oils are extractions from plants, usually fragrant, sometimes with additional properties. There's a wide variety of information on the Internet of mixed quality and so this is just a list of what's worked for me. Different people will have different oils that smell good to them. My suggestion you're unsure where to start is to explore a natural food store, such as whole foods, and smell the different varieties.
I use 10 drops of each oil listed here. Additionally I use two droppers worth of beard oil for additional smells. If you have sensitive skin, I suggest testing small amount of diluted oil on your skin to determine adverse reactions. The science behind each of these oils is linked in the citation section.
Bees Wax is used as a gelling agent for the deodorant. It has a melting point of about 62°C (144 °F), and at room temperature is solid. It also helps reduce the grittiness of the powdered baking soda and starch. This will also help the deodorant from melting in higher summer temperatures.
Plant Starch is used as a thickening agent that helps thicken the deodorant's liquid components.
Glycerin is viscous at room temperature and is used to prevent the deodorant from being too stiff. Since it's liquid at room temperature it helps the deodorant flow in solid form.


Tyson Fury warned about his WWE stint by Andy Ruiz Jr after Crown Jewel match
Fury is to appear on Friday Night Smackdown tonight - but Ruiz Jr told him not to stay away from boxing too long and says he wants to face him next year
by Gareth BicknellAndy Ruiz Jr has warned Tyson Fury over his move into WWE wrestling, saying: 'Don't stay away too long from boxing.'
Ruiz Jr also said he wants to fight Fury when the lineal heavyweight champion is ready to return to the boxing ring.
Next month Ruiz Jr faces Anthony Joshua in a rematch of their June world heavyweight title fight, in which the Mexican American stunned boxing by taking his opponents' belts.
Meanwhile, Fury will appear on Friday Night Smackdown in his hometown Manchester tonight, having knocked out Braun Strowman on his WWE debut at the Crown Jewel pay-per-view event in Saudi Arabia last week.
Asked about Fury's move into WWE, Ruiz warned the Gypsy King that his timing might be off when he eventually returns to boxing.
"You know what, I think that's a good opportunity for him (Fury) because boxing's not forever," Ruiz told IFL TV.

"I'm a humble guy, I treat everyone the same.
" Tyson Fury , I think that's a good move for him, but just don't stay away too long from boxing.
"I don't know, the timing, all that, might be a little bit different when he goes back inside the ring."
Fury is due for a huge rematch with WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder on February 22 next year.
Ruiz Jr was asked about wanting to fight Fury in the past - and said he would be just as happy to face him again after defending his belts against Joshua next month.
"Seven years ago [he wanted to fight him], because he was the one that was top of the game," said Ruiz Jr.
"Everyone was scared to fight him just because he was big and long, difficult.
"But with my style, I make every style difficult because of my speed, the movement, because I'm short.

Resource TVET institutions to train more young people - IET
by Dorothy Frances Ward, GNAKumasi, Nov. 20, GNA – Mr Eric Atta-Sonno, President of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) Ghana, has said there is the need for the government to adequately resource Technical, Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions to enable them train more skilled manpower for the country’s industrial development.
He said technical and vocational training are critical to achieving the country’s industrial development agenda, which was anchored in the ‘One District, One Factory’ policy and other development initiatives being implemented by the government to promote development.
Mr Atta-Sonno said this at the 33rd annual general meeting of IET Ghana, in Kumasi.
It was under the theme: “TVET-the industrial backbone to the economy”.
The purpose of technical and vocational education is to equip young people with the technical, vocational and professional skills needed for socio-economic development of the country, he said.
He said the emphasis is not only to provide middle level technical expertise for industries, but also provide employable skills that would help reduce unemployment among the youth.
Mr Atta-Sonno commended the government for identifying TVET as one of the priority areas to reduce poverty in the country and thereby placing emphasis on the need to get more young people trained to acquire useful skills.

A RELAX NG validator has to be able to determine whether two name classes overlap (i.e. whether there is a name that belongs to both name classes). This is needed for implementing sections 7.3 and 7.4 of the spec.
The basic idea is two test whether any of a representative set of
names is a member of both name classes. The representative set of
names is chosen such that for any name n that occurs in one
or both name classes there is guaranteed to be at least one member
r of the representative set of names such that, for each of
the two name classes, r is a member of that name class if
and only n is also a member of that name class. When
constructing a representative set of names for name classes involving
anyName
or nsName
, it is necessary to find a
namespace URI or a local name that is not mentioned in either name
class. Instead of expending effort of finding such a namespace URI or
local name we instead use a string that is not legal as a namespace
URI or local name, and hence is guaranteed not to occur in either name
class.
Here's some Haskell code that implements this. This uses datatypes from the description of derivative-based validation.
overlap :: NameClass -> NameClass -> Bool overlap nc1 nc2 = any (bothContain nc1 nc2) (representatives nc1 ++ representatives nc2) bothContain :: NameClass -> NameClass -> QName -> Bool bothContain nc1 nc2 qn = contains nc1 qn && contains nc2 qn representatives :: NameClass -> [QName] illegalLocalName :: LocalName illegalLocalName = "" illegalUri :: Uri illegalUri = "\x1" representatives AnyName = [QName illegalUri illegalLocalName] representatives (AnyNameExcept nc) = (QName illegalUri illegalLocalName) : (representatives nc) representatives (NsName ns) = [QName ns illegalLocalName] representatives (NsNameExcept ns nc) = (QName ns illegalLocalName) : (representatives nc) representatives (Name ns ln) = [QName ns ln] representatives (NameClassChoice nc1 nc2) = (representatives nc1) ++ (representatives nc2)
This approach can also be used to determine whether two name classes are equivalent. Two name classes are equivalent if and only if for each member of the representative set of names either both name classes contain that representative name or neither name classe contains it.

Suicide by Cop
Timeline
| 20 Nov 1912 |
Mad Bomber Carl Warr enters Los Angeles city jail with 60 sticks of dynamite strapped to himself. After an hour, two detectives attack Warr who then pulls the bomb's trigger. Nothing happens, and the freakishly masked bomber begs police to kill him. |
| 24 Nov 2003 |
According to police in Olathe, Missouri, one of their officers shoots and kills Brian E. Jones after the 36-year-old makes threatening comments and fires his own gun into the air after a 6-hour standoff. |
| 9 Mar 2004 |
39-year-old Gregory Velasquez drops by the Red Caboose Day Care in Madison, WI, brandishing two meat cleavers. After stabbing the day-care teacher several times, he is shot eight times in the chest by two police officers. Judging from comments he had made to his girlfriend (a lock of whose hair he had torn out a week before) his death is ruled suicide by police. |

Chatter is a quick and simple messaging client that allows users to send and receive messages in realtime with their group or team. The focus was to develop an application where exchange of messages between users to be seamless. This meant incorporating a database and backend service to manage the transfer of data between users and the database.
The application was aimed to handle large amounts of messages to be transferred between users. Angular JS was used along with injecting the Firebase service to develop and form the backend. The use of a simple backend service like Firebase allows for easy synchronization between data and user interaction. The UI was designed with HTML, CSS, Bootstrap. To gather any data form the user, a custom cookies service was created along with the use of Bootstrap's $UIMdodal service.

NIGHT FALLS ON MANHATTAN A film review by Bradley Null Copyright 1997 Bradley Null
With Night Falls on Manhattan, Sidney Lumet has created one of the most dedicated issue movies in a long time. As a high-profile, yet righteous, defense attorney (a first in modern film), Richard Dreyfuss's character admits that he took an unwinnable case because he wanted to expose corruption in the NYPD. Lumet seems to have created an unwinnable film for similar reasons.
Lumet has taken a very bare-bones approach with the plot of Night Falls on Manhattan. One minute Andy Garcia's Sean Casey is an assistant DA trainee, the next minute he is the District Attorney of New York. Likewise, the first twenty minutes of the film set up a courtroom drama which Lumet flies through in a series of quick scenes. Unconventional editing techniques, including periodic jump cuts and abrupt truncations of scenes that barely seem to have begun, help push the narrative forward, all of which serves to confuse the audience as to the film's true focus.
Ultimately, it becomes clear that the goal of this hectic structure is to unfold a series of issues for the audience. Lumet confronts us with tough questions at every turn: Who do we blame for police corruption? To whom is a lawyer most responsible, the law or his family? How much can we share with the people we love? Lumet packs it in, and he does so by creating several only-in-Hollywood coincidences. For example, Garcia happens to be in the right place to try the case of the drug dealer that shot his father. The perfect woman for Garcia also just happens to work for a lawyer on the other side.
The issues and questions that Lumet poses are powerful, but his plot manipulation and acceleration for the sake of these issues hurts his bid to satisfy a sophisticated audience. In his need to get in and out of every scene in half the time that it should take to develop, Lumet seems to have resorted to a short-hand form of directing his actors. At every emotional point in the story, one character invariably begins yelling. Lumet is obviously trying to make a point that such issues lead to uniform short-temperedness, but the consistency of these outbursts prevents us from distinguishing the different character's personalities.
With this subject matter, Lumet is obviously trying to make a gritty, un-Hollywood picture. The sets (such as a courtroom modeled after Lance Ito's instead of Perry Mason's) and the overwhelmingly drab color of the film beg us to look at it as a slice of realism. However, the plot twists and flat characters confound this attempt to make an intelligent film. Lena Olin, miscast and unbelievable as Andy Garcia's love interest, portrays the most awkward character. Not until the end of the film does it become clear that her character is actually in love with Garcia's, when the plot resolution tells us so.
An audience looking for a traditional Hollywood courtroom drama will be taken aback by Night Falls on Manhattan. Nevertheless, it brings with it some powerful questions which a thoughtful audience will want addressed. In the end, the film's uncomfortable blend of Hollywood conventions and complex subject matter will have a hard time finding its audience among the main-stream majority of moviegoers that are only looking for answers.

"Eyes Wide Shut" also has a wonderful cast. Tom Cruise eschews his trademark boyish smile (except for the opening scenes) for long stares usually at a low angle (A Kubrick motif). His slow descent into anger is thrilling to watch, and one of his most quixotic moments of his career is when he confronts his friend Ziegler and discovers the true nature behind his own adventurous and nocturnal activities.
Nicole Kidman has become a first-rate actress, and her mood swings are something to behold. I also liked her laughing fit at Bill's remarks that he would not sleep with his patients - when was the last time that a character laughed at Tom Cruise? Her final moment of realization about their marriage is stunning - this woman should be nominated for an Oscar.
Also worth mentioning is Sydney Pollack's quietly decadent millionaire character Ziegler - he is more fierce and yet just as restrained as he was in "Tootsie" or "Husbands and Wives." Vinessa Shaw displays a sweetness and sexiness not often seen on the silver screen, and she plays a prostitute! Rade Serbedzija ("Before the Rain") has one of the sole moments of comic relief as the owner of the Rainbow, a costume shop, who asks the good doctor for advice about his balding spot. Todd Field is also engaging as the piano player Nick Nightingale who plays blindfolded at some musical events.
If I have one or two gripes about Kubrick's long, difficult and splendid film, it is the abrupt ending and the inclusion of a character that would have been better omitted or replaced by a different actor. The ending is optimistic (a rarity in any of his films) but somehow feels rushed. Still, this is among the late master's finest films, preferable to the pretensions of "The Shining" or "Full Metal Jacket." "Eyes Wide Shut" easily stands among such giants as "A Clockwork Orange," "Paths of Glory" or "2001." It is a bizarre, strangely moving and enlightening film guaranteed to provoke as much controversy as anything he's ever done. Stanley, you may be gone, but we are glad you came back with one of the best films of your career.

Recipe 4.14. Inverting a DictionaryCredit: Joel Lawhead, Ian Bollinger, Raymond Hettinger ProblemAn existing dict maps keys to unique values, and you want to build the inverse dict, mapping each value to its key. SolutionYou can write a function that passes a list comprehension as dict's argument to build the new requested dictionary: def invert_dict(d): return dict([ (v, k) for k, v in d.iteritems( ) ]) For large dictionaries, though, it's faster to use the generator izip from the itertools module in the Python Standard Library: from itertools import izip def invert_dict_fast(d): return dict(izip(d.itervalues( ), d.iterkeys( ))) DiscussionIf the values in dict d are not unique, then d cannot truly be inverted, meaning that there exists no dict id such that for any valid key k, id[d[k]]==k. However, the functions shown in this recipe still construct, even in such cases, a "pseudo-inverse" dict pd such that, for any v that is a value in d, d[pd[v]]==v. Given the original dict d and the dict x returned by either of the functions shown in this recipe, you can easily check whether x is the true inverse of d or just d's pseudo-inverse: x is the true inverse of d if and only if len(x)==len(d). That's because, if two different keys have the same value, then, in the result of either of the functions in this recipe, one of the two keys will simply go "poof" into the ether, thus leaving the resulting pseudo-inverse dict shorter than the dict you started with. In any case, quite obviously, the functions shown in this recipe can work only if all values in d are hashable (meaning that they are all usable as keys into a dict): otherwise, the functions raise a TypeError exception. When we program in Python, we normally "disregard minor optimizations," as Donald Knuth suggested over thirty years ago: we place a premium on clarity and correctness and care relatively little about speed. However, it can't hurt to know about faster possibilities: when we decide to code in a certain way because it's simpler or clearer than another, it's best if we are taking the decision deliberately, not out of ignorance. Here, function invert_dict in this recipe's Solution might perhaps be considered clearer because it shows exactly what it's doing. Take the pairs k, v of key and value that method iteritems yields, swap them into (value, key) order, and feed the resulting list as the argument of dict, so that dict builds a dictionary where each value v is a key and the corresponding key k becomes that key's valuejust the inverse dict that our problem requires. However, function invert_dict_fast, also in this recipe's Solution, isn't really any more complicated: it just operates more abstractly, by getting all keys and all values as two separate iterators and zipping them up (into an iterator whose items are the needed, swapped (value, key) pairs) via a call to generator izip, supplied by the itertools module of the Python Standard Library. If you get used to such higher abstraction levels, they will soon come to feel simpler than lower-level code! Thanks to the higher level of abstraction, and to never materializing the whole list of pairs (but rather operating via generators and iterators that yield only one item at a time), function invert_dict_fast can be substantially faster than function invert_dict. For example, on my machine, to invert a 10,000-item dictionary, invert_dict takes about 63 milliseconds, but invert_dict_fast manages the same task in just 20 milliseconds. A speed increase by a factor of three, in general, is not to be sneered at. Such performance gains, when you work on large amounts of data, are the norm, rather than the exception, for coding at higher abstraction levels. This is particularly true when you can use itertools rather than loops or list comprehensions, because you don't need to materialize some large list in memory at one time. Performance gain is an extra incentive for getting familiar with working at higher abstraction levels, a familiarity that has conceptual and productivity pluses, too. See AlsoDocumentation on mapping types and itertools in the Library Reference and Python in a Nutshell; Chapter 19. |

The Maine Constitution structures Maine's state government, composed of three co-equal branches—the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The state of Maine also has three Constitutional Officers (the Secretary of State, the State Treasurer, and the State Attorney General) and one Statutory Officer (the State Auditor).
The legislative branch is the Maine Legislature, a bicameral body composed of the Maine House of Representatives, with 151 members, and the Maine Senate, with 35 members. The Legislature is charged with introducing and passing laws.
The executive branch is responsible for the execution of the laws created by the Legislature and is headed by the Governor of Maine (currently Janet Mills). The Governor is elected every four years; no individual may serve more than two consecutive terms in this office. The current attorney general of Maine is Aaron Frey. As with other state legislatures, the Maine Legislature can by a two-thirds majority vote from both the House and Senate override a gubernatorial veto. Maine is one of seven states that do not have a lieutenant governor.
The judicial branch is responsible for interpreting state laws. The highest court of the state is the Maine Supreme Judicial Court. The lower courts are the District Court, Superior Court and Probate Court. All judges except for probate judges serve full-time, are nominated by the Governor and confirmed by the Legislature for terms of seven years. Probate judges serve part-time and are elected by the voters of each county for four-year terms. [From Wikipedia]
The Heman Marion Sweatt Travis County Courthouse is located in downtown Austin. The county courthouse holds civil and criminal trial courts and other functions of county government. As of 2017, the county's probate courts are in the process of being moved from the county courthouse into Austin's 1936 United States Courthouse, which was acquired by the county in 2016.[19]
The bicameral Texas Legislature consists of the House of Representatives, with 150 members, and a Senate, with 31 members. The Speaker of the House leads the House, and the lieutenant governor, the Senate.[141] The Legislature meets in regular session biennially for just over 100 days, but the governor can call for special sessions as often as desired (notably, the Legislature cannot call itself into session).[142] The state's fiscal year spans from the previous calendar year's September 1 to the current year's August 31. Thus, the FY 2015 dates from September 1, 2014 through August 31, 2015.
In the American federalist system, citizens are usually subject to three levels of government: federal, state, and local. The local government's duties are commonly split between county and municipal governments. In almost all cases, executive and legislative officials are elected by a plurality vote of citizens by district. There is no proportional representation at the federal level, and it is rare at lower levels.[378]
The federal government comprises three branches:Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse porttitor arcu mi, eu mattis magna posuere pulvinar.

OUR VISION
The growth of virtual items and microtransactions have been enormous over the last few years. The prices for these items or microtransactions are often twice the price of the game itself. We understand people want these exclusive in-game rewards, but we also see how they are too expensive for many. Therefore we came up with the idea, Treemium .
We started providing a service directly targeted towards the game Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, however, we quickly came to realize this had the potential to reach a much broader audience. Now we have expanded our service for not only gamers, but also others that want gift cards to shop at their favorite place, Treemium ocurrencies to start their Treemium o adventure, or just direct PayPal cash to spend on whatever you want.
We’re excited for what the future has to bring, and we will continuously be pushing out updates and new features to keep Treemium the leading platform in the GPT industry

{{confuse|condensed milk|powdered milk}}
Evaporated milk, also known as dehydrated milk, is a shelf-stable canned milk product with about 60% of the water removed from fresh milk. It differs from sweetened condensed milk, which contains added sugar. Sweetened condensed milk requires less processing since the added sugar inhibits<ref>{{cite web|title=How does sugar act as a preservative?|url=http://sciencefocus.com/qa/how-does-sugar-act-preservative|publisher=BBC Worldwide}}</ref> bacterial growth.
The product takes up half the space of its nutritional equivalent in fresh milk. When the liquid product is mixed with a proportionate amount of water, evaporated milk becomes the rough equivalent of fresh milk. This makes evaporated milk attractive for shipping purposes as it can have a shelf life of months or even years, depending upon the fat and sugar content. This made evaporated milk very popular before refrigeration as a safe and reliable substitute for perishable fresh milk, which could be shipped easily to locations lacking the means of safe milk production or storage. Households in the western world use it most often today for desserts and baking due to its unique flavor. It is also used as a substitute for pouring cream, as an accompaniment to desserts, or (undiluted) as a rich substitute for milk. Mashed potatoes can be made by adding evaporated milk to (typically peeled) boiled potatoes, and whipping them into a creamy food.
The process involves the evaporation of about half the water from the milk, after which the product is homogenized, canned, and sterilized.<ref>{{Cite book

In the 1920s and 1930s, evaporated milk began to be widely commercially available at low prices.

Evaporated milk is fresh, homogenized milk from which 60 percent of the water has been removed. After the water has been removed, the product is chilled, stabilized, packaged and sterilized. It is commercially sterilized at 240-245 °F (115-118 °C) for 15 minutes.<ref name=foodista>{{cite web|accessdate=3 February 2015|title=Evaporated milk|url=http://www.foodista.com/food/7CSCT3PY/evaporated-milk}}</ref> A slightly caramelized flavor results from the high heat process, and it is slightly darker in color than fresh milk. The evaporation process also concentrates the nutrients and the food energy. Thus, for the same weight, undiluted evaporated milk contains more food energy than fresh milk.
According to the United States Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Chapter 1, Part 131, Sub part B, Section 130 "Evaporated milk", (April 2006) <blockquote>
(a) Description. Evaporated milk is the liquid food obtained by
partial removal of water only from milk. It contains not less than 6.5 percent by weight of milk fat, not less than 16.5 percent by weight of milk solids not fat, and not less than 23 percent by weight of total milk solids. Evaporated milk contains added vitamin D as prescribed by paragraph (b) of this section. It is homogenized. It is sealed in a container and so processed by heat, either before or after sealing, as to prevent spoilage. ... </blockquote> Sections (b) - (f) of the above code regulate vitamin addition, optional ingredients, methods of analysis, nomenclature, and label declaration.<ref>(21CFR131.130):</ref>
It is added in brewed tea and coffee to make Teh C and Kopi C respectively.
It is widely used for desserts, added to coffee, tea to create a rich and delicious " Leche con café" or " Te con leche", which is made with half water, half evaporated milk and either coffee or tea and sugar to taste.
The shelf life of canned evaporated milk will vary according to both its added content and its proportion of fat. For the regular unsweetened product a life of fifteen months can be expected before any noticeable destabilization occurs.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.survival-center.com/foodfaq/ff18-shl.htm|title= survival-center.com}}</ref>

Federer stays alive at ATP Finals with Berrettini win
London - Roger Federer kept alive his hopes of a seventh ATP Finals crown on Tuesday, beating Italian debutant Matteo Berrettini 7-6 (7/2), 6-3 at London's O2 Arena.
The Swiss third seed put himself under enormous pressure by losing his first match on Sunday in straight sets in Group Bjorn Borg to Dominic Thiem.
The six-time champion was not at his fluent best on Tuesday but ultimately had too much for Berrettini, who won just three games against Novak Djokovic in his opener.
Both players were solid on serve in the first set, with Federer struggling to make inroads against the eighth seed.
The Swiss eventually earned himself the sniff of a chance in the 12th game, winning the first break point of the match but Berrettini snuffed out the danger and held to take it into a tie-break.
Federer upped the level of his game in the shootout, helped by some wayward shots from his opponent plus a Berrettini double-fault and won it comfortably 7-2.
The Swiss, clad in black, broke immediately at the start of the second set to leave the Italian with a mountain to climb.
Berrettini earned a clutch of break points in the eighth game but Federer eventually served himself out of trouble.
Federer, as usual enjoying the lion's share of support from the crowd, broke in the next game to seal the set 6-3.
The 20-time Grand Slam champion said he had remained calm and tried to stay positive after the Thiem defeat.
"There's no reason to be too down on yourself," he said. "We came here to play three matches and give it all we have. It was the big goal of the season to come here and qualify which we did, plus I had a day off."
"Not everything was bad (in the Thiem match) but of course if you over-analyse it, all of a sudden it can be," he added. "I was ready, I was prepared today and that's what matters the most."
Djokovic and Thiem hope to take a major step towards qualifying for the semi-finals when they meet in the later match at the O2 Arena.
Djokovic is hunting a sixth ATP Finals title to pull level with Federer's record and is also seeking to pip Rafael Nadal to the year-end number one ranking.
On Monday, top seed Nadal lost his opener in Group Andre Agassi to defending champion Alexander Zverev while Stefanos Tsitsipas beat Daniil Medvedev.
The top two players from each group qualify for the semi-finals.

Keyword: definition
One of the primitive judgments.
A special form of axiom that cannot introduce an inconsistency.
Definitions can also be provided in-line with the declaration of a function or relation, by following the declaration with an equals sign (=
) and an expression.
Defining a function, relation or declared variable changes it from being a state variable to being immutable. Immutable definitions cannot be assigned in actions.
Example:
function g(X:t) : t
definition g(X) = f(X) + 1
This can be read as "for all X
, let g(X)
equal f(X) + 1
.
It can be written, equivalently, in its in-line form as:
function g(X:t) : t = f(X) + 1
The definition is admissible if the symbol g
is "fresh", meaning it does not occur in any existing properties or definitions in the current context.
Further g
must not occur on the right-hand side of the equality (that is, a recursive definition is not admissible without proof -- see recursion).


Converting an expression to lambda ensures that the expression won't be evaluated
if it happens to be unused inside the method. E.g. optional.orElse(createDefaultValue())
could be converted
to optional.orElseGet(this::createDefaultValue)
.

Film review by Kevin Patterson
THE FISHER KING Rating: ***1/2 (out of four) R, 1991 Director: Terry Gilliam Screenplay: Richard LaGravenese Starring Cast: Jeff Bridges, Robin Williams, Mercedes Ruehl, Amanda Plummer
I really wish they would make more films like THE FISHER KING. Movies these days seem to have lost sight of one of the most unique aspects of visual storytelling: its capacity to portray dreams and fantasy. That's not to say that movies don't ever stretch the boundaries of reality any more, but they do so cynically and cheaply, littering the screenplay with enough tongue-in-cheek one-liners so everyone can just relax. "Of course we don't *really* want you to think that a giant asteroid is going to hit the earth," filmmakers seem to be saying, "but it sure is fun to watch, isn't it?" Even Steven Spielberg, who brought such extraordinary stories as CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND and E.T. to our screens, has now tuned his sensibilities either to fantasies that are essentially negative and destructive, as in THE LOST WORLD, in which dinosaurs are brought to life only so they can chase people around and kill them, or to big-budget historical re-creations (not to take anything away from SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, of course, but the point's the same).
The preceding paragraph might give readers the mistaken impression that THE FISHER KING is a fantasy film. It isn't, really: in fact, it takes place in '90s New York City. The genius of THE FISHER KING is that rather than simply being an escapist fantasy, it argues for the place of escapist fantasies in the real world. Director Terry Gilliam is on familiar turf here, but never before has he given the opposition so much screen time: the "realists" in his films have previously been either obviously corrupt and evil (the totalitarian regime in BRAZIL) or almost cartoonishly dull and crotchety (the parents in TIME BANDITS and the medieval town leader in THE ADVENTURES OF BARON MUNCHAUSEN).
In THE FISHER KING, protagonist Jack Lucas (Jeff Bridges) is a bona fide '90s cynic if there ever was one. When we first meet him, he's a Howard Stern-style radio host who makes a living spouting off and insulting his callers. One night, after making an off-hand comment about "stopping the impending yuppie takeover," he turns on the TV to find that one of his listeners apparently took him seriously and shot up a posh restaurant.  He knows where it is, too, and explains this to Jack, who quickly realizes that Parry's actually talking about a sports trophy in a wealthy New Yorker's home collection.
Parry's wife, as it turns out, was killed in the restaurant shooting three years ago, and the personal tragedy is what has spawned his delusions. Jack understandably feels partly responsible, and decides to try to help Parry, which can be a rather exasperating task at times: Parry is often distracted by a "Red Knight" that he believes is chasing him, and talks to "Little People" who come to visit him occasionally. He's also fallen in love with a lonely woman (Amanda Plummer) that he sees pass through the train station every day. Jack and Anne determine to set the two of them up, and Gilliam handles the goofball romance that develops particularly well, letting them stay true to their quirky personalities without mocking them or allowing their scenes to degenerate into farce. Meanwhile, Jack and Anne start to rediscover some of the magic in their own relationship, which had been going slowly downhill due to his depression and aimlessness.
In the hands of someone other than Gilliam and screenwriter Richard LaGravenese, the story might easily have ended here: Jack makes his act of redemption, Parry is "cured" of his fantasies, and the two couples live happily ever after. Not in THE FISHER KING. Parry has a relapse, slipping away into a coma and leaving Jack bewildered. Eventually, he realizes that the only way to bring Parry out of it is to find his Holy Grail for him. This is the film's grand gesture: it requires Jack to join Parry in his fantasy before the two of them can really finish what they started. THE FISHER KING is a long, hard-fought , and ultimately well-deserved victory for romanticism and imagination over today's cynical brand of pragmatism.
That's not to say that THE FISHER KING is perfect. It starts to get a little unwieldy towards the end of its 137-minute running time, as another crisis for Jack and Anne is unconvincingly introduced. This seemed like a waste of screen time, and it really wasn't necessary to make Jack rehash all his previous conflicts in the final half hour; the unfinished business with Parry would have been enough. For the most part, however, Gilliam keeps the story on track, mixing in the right amounts of doubt and disappointment so that the film's essentially optimistic viewpoint comes through without seeming sappy or undeveloped. Too many films nowadays stage an uplifting finish without the story or characters to back it up. THE FISHER KING is one movie that earns its happy ending.

Mid-Scale
I find myself working on a lot of websites that have are are moderate in size and have a limited lifespan, so it is important to build out sites quickly with a reusable set of patterns. My set of patterns use Backbone as it provides a very minimal set of objects for MV. I have grown to really like this loosely structured approach, but I quickly find myself repeating code often, bloating even simple applications. Backbone extensions like Marionette and other frameworks like Ember and Angular use a more structured approach to building applications that works well for large scale projects, but are not necessary when the requirements are not lavish. A Goldilocks story with no just right for my situations, but if the right solution doesn’t exist why not build it.
Start with the Basics
The view is probably the most used part of Backbone, it defines the heart of most applications. The basic problem is that the default behavior of a backbone view doesn’t provide practical patterns.
This is likely an intentional design decision by the backbone folks, and in concept makes a whole lot of sense, but in practice becomes a nuisance. The simple solution is to define a base view that extends Backbone.View that contains a useful set of functions and hooks. One of the main components of the BaseView is a template renderer, it should run as the view instance initializes.
var BaseView = Backbone.View.extend({
initialize: function(options) {
this.render(this.model && this.model.attributes ? this.model.attributes : {});
},
render: function(model) {
if (this.template && _.isFunction(this.template)) {
this.$el.html(this.template(model));
}
}
...
});
This setup searches for a model attached to the view and sends it’s attributes object to a render function, if no model is attached a empty object is sent. The actual render function does nothing but run the template function set in the your view definition. I use a precompiled handlebars templates, but you can use underscore’s _.template function or whatever library you’d like.
Hooks and Events
The rendering of views that use the BaseView object is now automatic but if you override the initialize function the render function will not run automatically. You _could_ run the prototype.initialize function, but that quickly becomes a hassle. The better solution is to add a few hooks into the BaseView.
var BaseView = Backbone.View.extend({
initialize: function(options) {
this.render(this.model && this.model.attributes ? this.model.attributes : {});
if (_.isFunction(this.onRender)) {
}
},
render: function(model) {
if (this.template && _.isFunction(this.template)) {
this.$el.html(this.template(model));
}
}
});
The most used and most versatile object in backbone is the view object. Views can be extended into controllers, collection views, My set of patterns use Backbone and are designed with a nod to Derick Bailey’s Marionette.

So I had a wife.  Hey. One day they carve her face. And we have no money for surgeries. She can't take it. I just wanna see her smile again. I just want her to know that I don't care about the scars. So, I do this to myself. And you know what? She can't stand the sight of me. She leaves. Now I see the funny side. Now I'm always smiling.

A Flat Tree is a deterministic way of using a list as an index for nodes in a tree. Essentially a simpler way of representing the position of nodes.
A Flat Tree is also refered to as 'bin numbers' described here in RFC 7574: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7574#section-4.2
As an example (from the RFC), here's a tree with a width of 8 leafs and a depth of 3:3 7 / \ / \ / \ / \ 2 3 11 / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ 1 1 5 9 13 / \ / \ / \ / \ Depth 0 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 C0 C1 C2 C3 C4 C5 C6 C7 The flat tree is the list [0..14] The content (leafs) is C0..C7 Using the flat tree, we can see index: - 7 represents all the content (C0..C7) - 1 represents C0 and C1 - 3 represent C0..C3 ... etc ...
Even numbers are always leafs at depth 0 Odd numbers are parents at depths > 0
This work is almost a direct port of the DAT rust project: https://github.com/datrs/flat-tree
Along with the content described here: https://datprotocol.github.io/book/ch01-01-flat-tree.html| children/1 | Find the Indices of the children for a given index. |
| count/1 | |
| depth/1 | Calculate the depth of the tree for a given index. |
| full_roots/1 | Return a list of indices that represent the full nodes and subtrees to the left of the given index. |
| index/2 | Find the index value at a given depth and offset from the left of the tree. |
| left_child/1 | Get the child to the left. |
| left_span/1 | The index of the left most node in the span. |
| offset/1 | Return the offset for an index from the left side of the tree. |
| parent/1 | Return the index of the parent for the given index. |
| right_child/1 | Get the child to the right. |
| right_span/1 | The index of the right most node in the span. |
| sibling/1 | Return the index of node that shares a parent. |
| spans/1 | return the span of the left and right nodes for the given index. |
| uncle/1 | Return a parent's sibiling. |
children(Index::pos_integer()) -> none | {LeftIndex::pos_integer(), RightIndex::pos_integer}
Find the Indices of the children for a given index.
count(Index::pos_integer()) -> Count::pos_integer()
depth(Index::pos_integer()) -> Depth::pos_integer()
Calculate the depth of the tree for a given index. The root of the tree is the highest depth. The leafs are always at depth 0.
To find the depth count the number of trailing '1' bits (LSBs) for the given Index. For example, the value:11000001, ^- has a depth of 1. 11000011 ^- has a depth of 2.
Interestingly, even numbers have no trailing '1s' and therefore are always at depth 0.
Side note: Funky business converting an integer to binary... the built in function (integer_to_binary) returns something different.<<Index>> != integer_to_binary(Index)This is not the most optimal solution. A better approach would be with a lookup table. Here we: - reverse the binary and push the bits on to the head of a list (Acc) - then, we count '1s' till we hit a '0'.
full_roots(Index::pos_integer()) -> {error, only_even_indices_allowed} | [Index::pos_integer()]
Return a list of indices that represent the full nodes and subtrees to the left of the given index. For example, given this (partial) tree:
3 / \ / \ 1 5 / \ / \ 0 2 4 6 You get: [1,4] = flat_tree:full_roots(6) As index 1 is full to the left, and 4 is the node to the left [1] = flat_tree:full_roots(4) 1 is the only full node to the left of 4 and... [] = flat_tree:full_roots(0). as there are no nodes to the left of 0The input Index must be a leaf index (even number), otherwise you get an error.
index(Depth::pos_integer(), Offset::pos_integer()) -> Index::pos_integer()
Find the index value at a given depth and offset from the left of the tree.
left_child(Index::pos_integer()) -> none | (Index::pos_integer())
Get the child to the left
left_span(Index::pos_integer()) -> Index::pos_integer()
The index of the left most node in the span
offset(Index::pos_integer()) -> Offset::pos_integer()
Return the offset for an index from the left side of the tree.
For example: (0, 1, 3, 7) have an offset of 0 (Tree is rotated to right in diagram)(0)┐ (1)┐ 2─┘ │ (3)┐ 4─┐ │ │ 5─┘ │ 6─┘ │ (7) While (2, 5, 11) have an offset of 1: 0──┐ 1──┐ (2)─┘ │ 3──┐ 4──┐ │ │ (5)─┘ │ 6──┘ │ 7 8──┐ │ 9──┐ │ 10──┘ │ │ (11)─┘ 12──┐ │ 13──┘ 14──┘
parent(Index::pos_integer()) -> Parent::pos_integer()
Return the index of the parent for the given index.
right_child(Index::pos_integer()) -> none | (Index::pos_integer())
Get the child to the right
right_span(Index::pos_integer()) -> Index::pos_integer()
The index of the right most node in the span
sibling(Index::pos_integer()) -> Sibling::pos_integer()
Return the index of node that shares a parent
spans(Index::pos_integer()) -> {LeftIndex::pos_integer(), RightIndex::pos_integer()}
return the span of the left and right nodes for the given index.
uncle(Index::pos_integer()) -> Uncle::pos_integer()
Return a parent's sibiling

Ever since programming and winning awards for our team's robot in 6th grade Lego League, I've been sharpening my programming skills. I'm always growing and appreciate new challenges. I'm eager to learn and expand my knowledge
When I'm not coding, I love volunteering for causes I believe in, reading books or studying photography
