Introduction
What is lit-html?
lit-html is a simple, modern, safe, small and fast HTML templating library for JavaScript.
lit-html lets you write HTML templates in JavaScript using template literals with embedded JavaScript expressions. Behind the scenes lit-html creates HTML <template>
elements from your JavaScript templates and processes them so that it knows exactly where to insert and update the values from expressions.
lit-html Templates
lit-html templates are tagged template literals - they look like JavaScript strings but are enclosed in backticks (`
) instead of quotes - and tagged with lit-html's html
tag:
html`<h1>Hello ${name}</h1>`
Since lit-html templates almost always need to merge in data from JavaScript values, and be able to update DOM when that data changes, they'll most often be written within functions that take some data and return a lit-html template, so that the function can be called multiple times:
let myTemplate = (data) => html` <h1>${data.title}</h1> <p>${data.body}</p>`;
lit-html is lazily rendered. Calling this function will evaluate the template literal using lit-html html
tag, and return a TemplateResult
- a record of the template to render and data to render it with. TemplateResults
are very cheap to produce and no real work actually happens until they are rendered to the DOM.
Rendering
To render a TempalteResult
, call the render()
function with a result and DOM container to render to:
const result = myTemplate({title: 'Hello', body: 'lit-html is cool'}); render(result, document.body);
Template Dialects: lit-html vs lit-extended
lit-html allows extensive customization of template features and syntax through what are called "part callbacks". lit-html includes a core and very un-opinionated template dialect in the lit-html.js
module which only supports the basic features of HTML: attributes and text content.
import {html} from 'lit-html'; let result = html`<p>This template only supports attributes and text</p>`;
lit-html also includes a module at lib/lit-extended.js
which implements a more opinionated, feature-rich dialect called inspired by Polymer's template syntax. It sets properties instead of attributes by default and allows for declarative event handlers, attributes and boolean attributes.
import {html} from 'lit-html/lib/lit-extended.js'; let result = html`
 This template sets properties by default, which is great for custom elements: <my-element items=${[1, 2, 3]}></my-element> Attributes can be set with a $ suffix on the attribute name:
I have class
 Events can be added with on- prefixed attribute names: <button on-click=${(e) => window.alert('clicked')}>Click Me</button> Boolean attributes can be toggled by adding a ? suffix: I'm not hidden
`;
In lit-html the type of template you write is determined by the html
tag you use. If you import html
from lit-html.js
, you're using the basic core library. If you import html
from lib/lit-extended.js
, you're using lit-extended.
You can mix and match templates using different dialects and they will behave as intended.

- NAME

- EXAMPLES

- KEYWORDS
switch - Evaluate one of several scripts, depending on a given value
switch ?options? string pattern body ?pattern body ...?
switch ?options? string {pattern body ?pattern body ...?}
The switch command matches its string argument against each of
the pattern arguments in order.
As soon as it finds a pattern that matches string it
evaluates the following body argument by passing it recursively
to the Tcl interpreter and returns the result of that evaluation.
If the last pattern argument is default then it matches
anything.
If no pattern argument
matches string and no default is given, then the switch
command returns an empty string.
If the initial arguments to switch start with - then
they are treated as options
unless there are exactly two arguments to switch (in which case the
first must the string and the second must be the
pattern/body list).
The following options are currently supported:
- -exact
-
Use exact matching when comparing string to a pattern. This
is the default.
- -glob
-
When matching string to the patterns, use glob-style matching
(i.e. the same as implemented by the string match command).
- -regexp
-
When matching string to the patterns, use regular
expression matching
(as described in the re_syntax reference page).
- -nocase
-
Causes comparisons to be handled in a case-insensitive manner.
- -matchvar varName
-
This option (only legal when -regexp is also specified)
specifies the name of a variable into which the list of matches
found by the regular expression engine will be written. The first
element of the list written will be the overall substring of the input
string (i.e. the string argument to switch) matched, the
second element of the list will be the substring matched by the first
capturing parenthesis in the regular expression that matched, and so
on. When a default branch is taken, the variable will have the
empty list written to it. This option may be specified at the same
time as the -indexvar option.
- -indexvar varName
-
This option (only legal when -regexp is also specified)
specifies the name of a variable into which the list of indices
referring to matching substrings
found by the regular expression engine will be written. The first
element of the list written will be a two-element list specifying the
index of the start and index of the first character after the end of
the overall substring of the input
string (i.e. the string argument to switch) matched, in a
similar way to the -indices option to the regexp can
obtain. Similarly, the second element of the list refers to the first
capturing parenthesis in the regular expression that matched, and so
on. When a default branch is taken, the variable will have the
empty list written to it. This option may be specified at the same
time as the -matchvar option.
- --
-
Marks the end of options. The argument following this one will
be treated as string even if it starts with a -.
This is not required when the matching patterns and bodies are grouped
together in a single argument.
Two syntaxes are provided for the pattern and body arguments.
The first uses a separate argument for each of the patterns and commands;
this form is convenient if substitutions are desired on some of the
patterns or commands.
The second form places all of the patterns and commands together into
a single argument; the argument must have proper list structure, with
the elements of the list being the patterns and commands.
The second form makes it easy to construct multi-line switch commands,
since the braces around the whole list make it unnecessary to include a
backslash at the end of each line.
Since the pattern arguments are in braces in the second form,
no command or variable substitutions are performed on them; this makes
the behavior of the second form different than the first form in some
cases.
If a body is specified as
“-”
it means that the body
for the next pattern should also be used as the body for this
pattern (if the next pattern also has a body of
“-”
then the body after that is used, and so on).
This feature makes it possible to share a single body among
several patterns.
Beware of how you place comments in switch commands. Comments
should only be placed inside the execution body of one of the
patterns, and not intermingled with the patterns.
The switch command can match against variables and not just
literals, as shown here (the result is 2):
set foo "abc"
switch abc a - b {expr {1}} $foo {expr {2}} default {expr {3}}
Using glob matching and the fall-through body is an alternative to
writing regular expressions with alternations, as can be seen here
(this returns 1):
switch -glob aaab {
a*b -
b {expr {1}}
a* {expr {2}}
default {expr {3}}
}
Whenever nothing matches, the default clause (which must be
last) is taken. This example has a result of 3:
switch xyz {
a -
b {
# Correct Comment Placement
expr {1}
}
c {
expr {2}
}
default {
expr {3}
}
}
When matching against regular expressions, information about what
exactly matched is easily obtained using the -matchvar option:
switch -regexp -matchvar foo -- $bar {
a(b*)c {
puts "Found [string length [lindex $foo 1]] 'b's"
}
d(e*)f(g*)h {
puts "Found [string length [lindex $foo 1]] 'e's and\
[string length [lindex $foo 2]] 'g's"
}
}
for, if, regexp
switch, match, regular expression

Bill Gates becomes world's richest person, again
by DH Web DeskBill Gates has reclaimed his throne of the world's richest person, surpassing Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, according to the latest Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
In 2018, Jeff Bezo overtook Bill Gates as the richest man, with a net worth of $160 billion.
According to CNN, Bill Gates got back his top spot after a surge in Microsoft's stock that went up nearly 48 per cent this year.
Europe’s richest person, Bernard Arnault, is third with $102.7 billion.

[gecode-users] BAB implementation
Christian Schulte
cschulte at kth.se
Tue Mar 13 16:10:50 CET 2018
A* and how BAB works in Gecode is very different. A* is typically based on representing the problem by states and then coming up with the right operators and functions, etc.
Gecode uses constraint programming which has a very different way of modeling problems. That's why I would suggest to really try a little bit of how models with constraint programming look like. If you want to get an idea on a more high-level you could try a modeling language such as MiniZinc:

Hi,
Definitively not a homework. I have to make a technical choice to solve a planification problem with task/resources/scheduling.
A * will be homogeneous with the rest of the software but CSP with a BAB engine seems clearly more appropriate to me.
It has been proved in 1984 by Nau/Kumar/Kanal that A* is a special case of a general BAB formulation and I don't see any reason why it would not be the case with Gecode, but i was asking some advice to decide !
Moreover, i will maybe have some questions about coding rules in gecode relative to embedded system.

Hi all,
This is maybe a general question about the B&B and the A* algorithm, But I was wondering what was the advantage, force, weakness of the Gecode BAB engine over a A*.

HIGHER LEARNING A film review by Andrew Hicks Copyright 1996 Andrew Hicks / Fatboy Productions
(1995) *** (out of four)
If DO THE RIGHT THING had taken place on a college campus, it might have gone something like this. Director John Singleton (of BOYZ IN THE HOOD fame) brings us this compelling story whose theme is that people tend to congregate within their own demographic, whether it be age, sex, race or all of the above. Singleton mainly focuses on racism which, narrow-minded and primitive as it is, will never completely vanish in this country. Had America's background been different, racial harmony may have been achieved, but with things and people the way they are, it's not going to happen.
 On the other you've got the black people like Omar Epps, who sees the injustice inflicted on the African race and adopts the notion that all white people are to be distrusted and hated. Epps blames every wrong thing in his life on his skin color and soon withdraws to the comfort of "Super Duper Senior" Ice Cube's bachelor pad (also inhabited by charismatic rapper Busta Rhymes), where giant "Black Power" posters abound.
Singleton doesn't just focus on the race problems, he shows feminine problems as well, when Kristy "Buffy" Swanson is date raped her second night on campus and is taken under the wing of Jennifer Connelly, one of those penis-boycotting feminists. I could guess right off that Connelly's character was a lesbian, albeit one of those beautiful Hollywood lesbians. Connelly makes it clear that she doesn't want to pressure Swanson into swearing off the male gender entirely, but there's always a breast to cry on if she wants it.
Not every character is an extremist. There are some people in the movie with sense, like the Political Science professor (Lawrence Fishburne) who can actually look beyond sex and skin color and tries to explain to Epps that his defeatist attitude won't get him anywhere in the world; Epps' girlfriend, the lovely supermodel Tyra Banks, who also hasn't given up on success just because she was born black; Swanson's roommate, Regina King of "Family Matters," who's fought off Urkel's advances for six seasons and now has to worry about getting hit on by a lesbian roommate; and Epps' roommate, a white boy with no racial prejudice who tries to befriend Epps but can't break down the race barrier.
Eventually, as in DO THE RIGHT THING, the racial tension builds to the point at which it manifests itself in violence, but not in just one scene and not just in one way. In the end, little ground is gained by either side. Thankfully, Singleton's realistic outlook prevented him from making a sugar-coated, harmonious ending. As one of the characters points out, that kind of "We Are the World" outlook is a crock.  And other individuals will think themselves superior to everyone else. The rest of this know none of this is right but some people's minds just aren't going to be changed. The race problem can't be eliminated entirely, but intelligent films like this can change individuals' thoughts and actions for the better.

There are some people in the movie with sense, like the Political Science professor (Lawrence Fishburne) who can actually look beyond sex and skin color and tries to explain to Epps that his defeatist attitude won't get him anywhere in the world; Epps' girlfriend, the lovely supermodel Tyra Banks, who also hasn't given up on success just because she was born black; Swanson's roommate, Regina King of "Family Matters," who's fought off Urkel's advances for six seasons and now has to worry about getting hit on by a lesbian roommate; and Epps' roommate, a white boy with no racial prejudice who tries to befriend Epps but can't break down the race barrier.
Eventually, as in DO THE RIGHT THING, the racial tension builds to the point at which it manifests itself in violence, but not in just one scene and not just in one way. In the end, little ground is gained by either side. Thankfully, Singleton's realistic outlook prevented him from making a sugar-coated, harmonious ending. As one of the characters points out, that kind of "We Are the World" outlook is a crock.  And other individuals will think themselves superior to everyone else. The rest of this know none of this is right but some people's minds just aren't going to be changed. The race problem can't be eliminated entirely, but intelligent films like this can change individuals' thoughts and actions for the better.

I woke early this morning with still a realization of my weaknesses in the way I speak to my sweetheart. I realize that I am very weak in many of my characteristic and know that I need help to be the person worthy of my companion and the companionship on my Lord and Savior. The weather has changed and is now storming. I put my boat back away and took care of the chickens and rabbits. I am afraid that my one white doe is not well and wonder if I should butcher her now or wait to see if she gets better. Mae prepared French toast for breakfast. After eating we enjoyed the Morning Session of General Conference. I called Randy and we decided to change our fishing trip until next Thursday, due to the bad weather. I also called Tyler and we will try to take him, Emily and Connor fishing on Friday. Mae made a nice lunch and we had Bob come down to eat with us. This afternoon we again enjoyed the last Session of General Conference. Mae and I drove over to the rehabilitation center to visit Sister Joanne Von Niederhauser. She is doing very well. We didn’t stay long as they had family there. Mae worked on pictures of her mother’s that I had digitized before we left on our first mission. She used the desk top computer this evening while I used the lap top to work on my journals. It takes me quite a while as I am digitizing my Five Year Diary from 1970 to 1974. This is when I started keeping a diary. We went into our bedroom and watched another J.A.G. series before we went to sleep.
Monday, April 02, 2012
We slept in this morning as our school district is on Spring Break for this week. After breakfast I fed the animals and then dug post holes and set standards for a volley ball net and two fence post. I mixed cement and set the post and a base for the standards. Bob invited us up for lunch as he had made a very good stew. This afternoon Mae and I went up to Cindy Bennet’s and got three more rabbits from her. The one has an inner ear infection and has lost its equilibrant. I just put it out of its suffering. The other two are ok to rise for meat. We stopped on the way home and bought chicken and rabbit feed. We then changed vehicles and went into Ogden where I bought a set of scales. We stopped at Good Earth and sold them 5 dozen eggs and bought some other things we needed. On the way home from there we bought a Sub-Way sandwich for dinner. Mae went up to Jeff and Gail’s where she tended their children while Gail went to a class. Jeff is out of town on business. I worked on Indexing for over 2 ˝ hours getting one batch done this evening. I watched the last of one show but Mae still hadn’t got home and it was after 10pm. I started another show when Mae got home so we watched it. It was after mid-night before we got to bed.
Tuesday, April 03, 2012
We slept in but I went pretty hard the rest of the day. I took care of the animals, went over to Scott’s and put a 2nd coat of mud on the basement. Mae had lunch ready when I got home. I did take a short nap and then trimmed the pear tree and the plum tree. I removed the one plum tree and hauled it away. Bob and I then moved the fence on the east side of the garden and got it almost finished before coming in for super. After eating I entered the entry and we soon went to bed. Mae has been busy with family Easter plans; Siblings get to gather and the Bushnell family reunion. She also went shopping and bought a volley ball and net.
Wednesday, April 04, 2012
I woke up at 4am and found 2 notes from Mae. She hadn’t been to sleep by 1:30am and the 2nd was that she hadn’t been to sleep until after 3am. I let her sleep and got myself off. Randy and I went fishing at East Canon reservoir. We got on the lake just as the sun rose. We had a good time and had good luck. We caught the last of our limits about 1pm and was home about 3pm. Mae had been with Michelle and the children to Dinosaur Park and had just got home before I did. Scott came to our place when he got off work. Mae prepared dinner for all of us. Scott and I started to set up the volley ball net but found out that the measurements we used did not fit the net Mae bought. I will have to set a new hole for the one pole. After Scott, Michelle and the children left we watched a couple of western movies on TV before we went to bed.
Thursday, April 05, 2012
We slept in somewhat, as Bob prepared breakfast of biscuits and gravy and baked fish. We ate at 9am. I had fed the animals before we ate. I set the garden up to water with the hose. The secondary water isn’t on yet and the ground is very dry. I removed the west volleyball standard and reset it further west. I took Bob with me and we purchased salt for the water softener, bark to put around the rose bushes, cement to reset the volleyball standard and parts to remodel the garden gate. Mae boiled 6 dozen eggs this morning and then Gail and their children came over and enjoyed coloring them. I got all the jobs done before we went to the Bountiful Temple this evening. I am experiencing quite a bit of pain this evening. After getting home from the Temple I made calls on last months Home Teaching reports.
Friday, April 06, 2012
As I entered the date I couldn’t help but realize that it has been 182 years ago today that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was officially organized. It is also the anniversary day of the birth of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It has snowed quite heavy during the night and is still snowing lightly at 10am. I have talked to David and we determined that we would cancel plans to take Tyler and Connor fishing today. I have taken care of my animals and now going to try indexing another batch of 1940 census. I worked on today’s batch for over 4 hours. It was a difficult patch because of the poor handwriting of the one taking the census. Mae and I laid in the recliners and took a short nap and then went into Ogden. We stopped at AmeriGas to see if they can repair the gas tank for the camper but they said that the company that makes that tank doesn’t make parts, they just sell new tanks. We left and went to Cosco for a few items. After that we went out to eat at Chuck-A-Rama. This evening we watched a show on TV before going to bed.
Saturday, April 07, 2012
The weather was perfect for Mae’s Easter Party with our family. All the boys and their families came. I set up the volleyball standards and net and that was a good success with a lot of fun. The children had fun finding Easter Eggs. Everyone helped with dinner items and so lunch went well. The boys helped with the putting away tables and the volley ball net and standards. The children had fun gathering the eggs from the chickens. Ben found that some of the chickens are laying eggs underneath the storage shed so I nailed boards to stop them from getting underneath the shed again. It was about 7pm when they all went home. I helped Mae finish putting the toys away. Bob came down just as I turned on a show on TV. He stayed and watched it with me. After the show I helped Mae vacuum the apartment. We got things ready to go to Powder Ridge tomorrow evening. It is almost 10pm and we still need to take showers. So we will go to bed, very tired.
Sunday, April 08, 2012
I woke at 3:45am and didn’t sleep well after that. When Mae got up she said that she didn’t sleep very well either. We must have been too tired after yesterday’s activity. It is a beautiful Easter morning. I took care of the animals and while doing that I saw Brother Kelley Bodily out so I called to him with a good morning. He said it was until he walked down stairs and found that his water heater was leaking. I loaned him my wet vacuum and he said that was enough. We attended our normal Sunday meetings. Mae and I stayed for a short choir practice. Bob had dinner ready when we got home. Bob’s family came over just as we were finishing dinner. His grand children wanted to see the chickens and rabbits so I went out with them so that they wouldn’t chase them like they did last time. They had upset the chickens until they quite laying for a couple of days. I felt bad that I couldn’t be in helping Mae get things ready to go. We did get away about 5PM, stopping on the way at Kim’s home to pick up some items they had gone off without. When we got to Powder Ridge and located the condo, Bryce and Deanna and Kim and Jeanenne were already there. Rick and Georgia soon came. We enjoyed a good discussion lead by Rick about the Crucifixion of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We also watched an excellent movie of John Tanner. It has been a very interesting and an enjoyable evening. It was after mid-night before we got to bed.
Monday, April 09, 2012
Mae and I sleepy on twine beds but my mattress was very hard and I woke with quite a back ache. We had a wonderful day visiting and doing several activities. Our meals were good and all we could eat. Bryce and I used his snow shoes and enjoyed a walk around the hills on what snow there is left. The ski lift is still running and there were several that were still using the run. I found out how old I am getting when Rick, Bryce, Kim and I played a little basketball. I pulled a muscle in my right leg and that really hurt. This evening Bryce and I went to the club house and soaked in the hot tub and showered there. I put liniment on my leg and between the two it took away most of the pain. Quite a bit of time was used discussing the Bushnell Reunion plans and assignments. We also played some table games and ended the night by watching the first half of a movie. By the name of the movie I didn’t recognize it but when it started I remembered that we had seen it. It is still a fun movie. It was mid-night before we got to bed.
Tuesday, April 10, 2012
I slept much better as Mae changed beds with me. She sleeps on her back where I sleep on my sides so the softer bed helped me and Mae slept ok on the firmer bed. We got up about 7:30am and started the day. I wasn’t able to read my scriptures because my IPod was low on power and I had forgotten to bring the connecting cable to my lap top. We packed and cleaned up the condo and had a very nice breakfast with everyone helping. We got everything ready to leave and then took time to watch the last of the movie we started last night. The title was “Second Hand Lion” and it was sure a cute movie. After getting home I took a short nap before we ate lunch. Mae then went over to Scott and Michelle’s where she tended Kaitlin while Michelle took Kaden to the Dr. for a checkup. He is feeling much better. I went to work on the pickup and installed new front break on it. The old ones were completely gone and were just starting to scratch the brake drums. I got a couple of calls on my bus route this afternoon. First they informed me that I am getting another student to take home after school. The sub-driver called me and said that my bus was in the shop for repair and I would have to get a sub bus for tomorrow morning. This evening Mae and Ashley attended a special Grandmother and Grand Daughters Relief Society program. I sure appreciated Bob’s help while I was repairing the pickup. I came in and got myself some super at PM. I turned on the TV but the show “Air Force 1” was rated R so I turned to another channel and saw that “The Other Side of Heaven” was just starting so I watched that. Mae got home before it finished. She said that they had a very good evening. We watched the end of the show and then I entered my journal entry for today. Good-night!
Wednesday, April 11, 2012
When I checked my bus I had problems so I had to take a spare bus this morning. The rout went well and after completing it I stayed at to office to check on some information. When I got home I took care of the animals. My one white doe had given birth to one kit but it was dead. I am not having very good luck with my breeding. Mae had an appointment with Deanna for a treatment so she was gone when I got home. I tried to get an appointment with Davis Human Resources but only got a message. I left a recorded message asking them to return my call. I took a nap and worked on Indexing. I had a question about the instructions for Col. 17-18-19 and tried to reach help but I only got a message that they were busy and they would return my call. I continued on until I left to make the pm route. That went well but my bus is still having electrical problems, so I turned it back in to the shop again. I again worked on indexing until almost 8pm when I let Mae use the computer. Mae got on with a on-line meeting about a sales program. I couldn’t follow it as she was talking on the phone as she watched the presentation on the computer screen. I set in the recliner and soon was asleep. I am concerned that it is a pyramid program and it seems that it is the lower people that lose. It was after 10PM before we went to bed. I didn’t sleep well and got up about 12:30am and slept most of the night in the recliner.
Thursday, April 12, 2012
I woke before 5am and read my scriptures. I also checked my batch that I had completed last night with the Arbitrator and saw some of my errors. I did question the Arbitrator in a couple of areas. I woke Mae at 6am and we had breakfast before I went to work. My bus still isn’t working so I had to drive a sub bus. After the bus run I went over to the district office and got the paper work finished and finger printed to be a regular driver. When I was just about home I felt that I should stop in at Sierra RV to check on them getting me a new gas tank. One of the mechanics was at the parts desk and suggested that I take the tank to Intermountain Truck Repair in Ogden. He thinks they can repair the tank. When I got home I found a note from Mae that Michelle has a migraine head ache and Mae is there tending the children for her. Bob went with me to Ogden. The mechanic couldn’t fix it so he will order a new valve. I hope it works for it will save me quite a lot if it does. When I got to the shop they had my bus repaired so we used it this afternoon. Mae was home when I got there. I gathered the eggs while Mae prepared dinner. The doe had 12 kits today but she let them all die. There isn’t any reason to keep her. After dinner Mae and I went over to Jeff and Gail’s. Gail’s mother also came over. We played a few games quitting just before 10pm. We went right to bed after getting home/
Friday, April 13, 2012
Mae got up with me and prepared breakfast. My morning run went well. When I got back to the shop I had them tighten up the one mirror brackets as they were loose. I took care of the animals when I got home. I bred doe #2 again and will see if it will make a difference in her taking care of her litter if I make a larger nest box. I will try the same thing with doe #1 in a few more days. I hate to lose those two doe’s as they are a much larger breed than the rest I have. Irven and Sandy came over to get Mae and the three of them went over to Weber State University to campaign for Ron Paul. I took a nap, ate some lunch and then took my pm route. Mae returned home just after I got there. I did some work on my tool trailer and the small table saw. I had a man come and look at the saw but he wanted a larger one. Mae and I watched the last of the show “She Wore a Yellow Ribbon” starring John Wayne, as we ate our dinner. I also worked on indexing in between other things. Mae fell asleep while she was waiting for me to finish one batch of indexing. When I finished I woke Mae and we then watched a DVD titled “Conversations With God”. It was very interesting with a lot to think about. I sure enjoy being with Mae. She is such a special wife and sweetheart.
Saturday, April 14, 2012
I woke at 6am and was up for a little while but Mae was sleeping in the recliner. I was afraid that if I got up and worked on the computer that I would wake Mae, so I went back to bed and slept until almost 8am. I fed the animals while Mae prepared waffles for breakfast. They were very good. I worked on indexing for a while and then went over to Scott’s to work on their basement. After finishing Scott’s I came home, Mae had gone over to Dolly’s to help her. I got myself some to eat. When Mae got home we went to the church house to check out the computers in the Family History room. We found that 1 out of 4 computers worked. Mae had an dinner appointment to go out with RaNae Barney. I stayed and tried to resolve the computer problem but didn’t have any success. I came home and looked up in my Stake Directory the Technology Clerk, Ronald Hubbard. I called him and he came to the church house to help me. The 2nd computer seemed to work but I was having trouble getting it to download the Indexing program. The 3rd computer is missing a key board. The 4th computer doesn’t have enough memory to run the Indexing system, so that computer is out. Brother Hubbard hooked my computer to the wireless inter-net and found that it made contact by going wireless now. He said that they had just made some modifications to the system which gave better coverage in the building. He then went over to Wal-Mart and purchased a new key board. While he was gone I continued working on computer 2. I was ready to give up when Brother Hubbard came back. Just at that time the error message that had continued to stop me went away and the down load worked great. With the three computers at the center and my laptop we will have four computers to work with the Young Women on Thursday evening to show them Indexing. I came home and found that Irven and Sandy were waiting to plant Raspberry transplants. I had to hurry and till the area where I wanted them planted. We planted 14 plants. When we finished we came in and found that Bob had made a large batch of chilly and invited us to come up and have some. Mae had returned home so she went up with us. While we were eating Bob started a movie on TV. After eating, Irven and Sandy went home. Mae and I stayed and watched the movie. Bob popped popcorn and we enjoyed that. It was late when the movie finished and we went downstairs. I didn’t feel the best when we went to bed. I did sleep ok.
Sunday, April 15, 2012
When I woke at 6am Mae wasn’t in bed with me. I found that she was sleeping in the other room. I went back to sleep and woke again just before 8am. Mae woke shortly after and we started getting ready for the Sunday morning. I took care of morning chores and we ate breakfast before going to our Church meetings. It was our Ward Conference and was very good. Bob prepared a nice dinner for us when we got home. After dinner I took a nap but Mae let me sleep for 1 ˝ hours or more. I was a little upset as we had a lot to do. We are trying to get prepared to teach Indexing to the Young Women in our Ward this Wednesday evening. We worked on those preparations until 9:30pm and then I filled out my journal. It’s now time to get to bed. When I did chores this morning I found that my doe that just had her litter and didn’t take care of them was dead. I guess that I don’t have to worry any more about her. I am not having very good luck with my rabbits this time.
Monday, April 16, 2012
I was up before the alarm. Mae was still sleeping so I let her but she got up a few minutes later and got my breakfast. I helped her with the bed as it is time to rotate the matters. My morning run went well. When I got home Bob was ready to get the water on the yard. We checked the sprinklers and then worked on the garden watering. Bob went to the store and got some parts for me. While he was gone I started working on the gate. As we started with the water all at once my back tightened up and I could hardly move. I got to the house and Mae rubbed some Thera-Gesoc on my lower back. I took some pills for pain and rested for a few minutes. We tried to find someone that could adjust my back but no one could today. I got an appointment with Randy tomorrow after work. I relaxed and was able to take my afternoon route. This evening I just relaxed. Mae had to go to Jeff’s to tend their children while Jeff and Gail attended another financial class. I entered this entry and then went to bed.
Tuesday, April 17, 2012
I am in quite a lot of back pain but I still took my route this morning. When I got home I again had Mae rub me with Thera-Gesoc and I went to bed. I woke just before noon when a fellow called about my small table saw that I have in ksl.com. He will come to look at it this afternoon. I got dressed and Mae went with me to get the saw. Mae brought it up to the house in the wheelbarrow. While we ate lunch I got on the computer and look up a map of Kaysville so that I can find a better route for the new boy that we take home. I am still not feeling well but took my pm route. When I finished the route I went down to Randy’s. Randy gave me a treatment and worked on me for over 1 ˝ hours. He said that I was in pretty bad shape but got some of it out. I set another appointment with him when I finish my am route tomorrow. I came home and ate my dinner that Mae had ready for me. I them finished a batch of indexing before we went to bed.
Wednesday, April 18, 2012
Although my back and legs are still very sore I still went into work. Mae hadn’t slept during the night so I had her go back to sleep. The morning run went well and I went right from work to Randy’s. He worked on me for 2 ˝ hours. On the way home I called into the shop and asked if they could get a sub for my bus this afternoon. They did. I came home and ate, had Mae put ice packs on my back for about 3 hours and then took a hot Epson Salts bath. Still having a little time I laid back down. Mae noticed that my right leg is really bruised on the back center upper leg. I believe that was caused a week ago Monday when we were playing basketball. I think that is where all my trouble stemmed from. Mae and I went to the church house and set up to teach the YW how to Index. It went well and was quite a lot of fun. Bob became worried as he didn’t know we were going anyplace this evening and was sure that Mae must have taken me to Randy or the hospital. Mae is sure tired and so am I so we will get right to bed.
Thursday, April 19, 2012
I took today off sick. Randy is also sick today so he can’t work on me today. I’m not quite sure what to do. I am feeling some better but a long ways from completely better. I did do a batch of indexing today. Roberta called me and ask if I could please drive tomorrow, they are going to be way short of drivers. I told her that I am sure that I will be there and she said “thank you, thank you, thank you!”. This evening Mae drove me into see Deanna Davis who gave me a 1 ˝ hour treatment and I feel much better. When we got home Mae and I took a walk around the park and it felt very good. I’m not 100% but much better.
Friday, April 20, 2012
I did drive the bus today but was hurting when I tried to get off the bus in the afternoon. Between the am & pm route I did go out and take care of the animals.  I was going to work on one of the young rabbits to clean it eyes but they have gone too far so I just separated it from the others. When I got home this afternoon I got Bob to kill that one for me. Mae went to lunch with Kylan and Ashley. Mae bought us a Sub-Way sandwich for dinner this evening. We watched shows of TV and then we watched a show on DVD but I really didn’t enjoy it. I am not moving very much.
Saturday, April 21, 2012
I am not feeling good today. I went down to Randy about 11am and he worked on me until almost 3pm. I came home and went to bed. I didn’t feel well enough to go to the Cousin’s Party that Mae put on this evening, so I stayed home. I went to bed in quite a lot of pain.
Sunday, April 22, 2012
I didn’t attend meetings today. Brother Thompson and Brother Thomas came over between Priesthood and Sacrament meetings and gave me a blessing. I have been lying down all day so when Mae got home I got up and with the laptop on the kitchen cabinet I could stand and type the last three days of journal entries. But I am tired now.
Monday, April 23, 2012
I didn’t sleep very well last night. Mae took our pickup to Dee’s to get it inspected and new license. There was two censors that were giving a “check engine” light that they had to repair. Total cost was $325.00 so that hurts our budget. This morning Mae took me into Dr. Lee’s. He said that I have strained muscles in my back area and they will need time to heal. He recommends that I take as much as two weeks off from driving school bus and he gave me prescriptions for a muscle relaxant and one for anti inflammatory. We watched 3 series of the Waltons and one of Little House on the Prairie. Mae went over to Layton City Library to attend Emily’s violin recital. I watched a couple of western movies on TV while she was gone. I’m hurting and glad to go to bed. Mae gave me my medications before we went to bed.
Tuesday, April 24, 2012
We both slept well last night, waking up about 7:30am. I woke concerned with the Bus Evacuation drill that is scheduled for this week. I called Kate and left a message for her on her cell phone. I went back to bed and slept for a while longer. Mae prepared breakfast and we ate so she could go to a dental appointment this morning. From there Mae went out to lunch with Marna Mc Phie. I helped Bob repair the fence. This afternoon Mae and I went to Intermountain Truck and got my gas tank that they replaced the valve on it and refilled the tank with Propane gas. The total bill came to $61.28 and that included a full tank of gas. We felt very pleased with that price. I have rested all day and did watch some good movies on TV. Mae sure keeps busy and it seems that everyone wants her company. I did work on Indexing for a while. Mae weeded the strawberries and I walked out to watch her. I am sure feeling quite helpless.
Wednesday, April 25, 2012
Mae didn’t sleep very well again last night. I woke after 7am and she was in the other bedroom. She soon woke when I got up. I went back to bed a little longer but Mae got going. She fed the animals and did a little weeding in the garden. She then came in and fixed breakfast. Mae went to the Bountiful Temple to be with Mysha and John as they are being Sealed for Time and Eternity as well as having their baby sealed to them. Mae road with Georgia and Rick to the Temple. I wish that I could have been there also. After taking a shower I went back to bed and slept for over an hour. I got up and dressed and then finished the batch that I started yesterday of indexing. I watched a couple of shows this afternoon. This evening Linda, Irven, Sandy, Bob, Mae and I had dinner together. Bob made cabbage casserole and we ate downstairs. I was kind of a stick in the mud as I laid in the recliner most of the time. Brother Thomas stopped by to visit with me. After everyone left, Mae and I watched “Gun Smoke” on TV before going to bed.
Thursday, April 26, 2012
I woke early but then went back to bed. When I got up I prepared breakfast while Mae took care of the animals. The lopped ear doe had a litter of kits. This afternoon I counted them and there was 6 but 1 was dead. We hope that she will take care of them. Mae had a doctor’s appointment before noon for a physical. I did do some indexing throughout the day. I read my scriptures, the preface to “Joseph Smith – Rough Stone Rolling” and we read some more of our book “American Prophet – The Story of Joseph Smith”. Mae received her book that she had prepared on her mother and while she was reviewing that I capsulated some of our nutrition. It is now 11PM and we are ready for bed.
Friday, April 27, 2012
We stayed in bed late this morning. Mae and I gave each other hair cuts before breakfast. I am feeling quite a lot better but Mae still keeps me down. I did string out the garden hoses to the back and I installed a key box by the back garage door for emergency access to the house. I completed another batch of Indexing and started another. I also tried to teach Bob how to use the computer but he just doesn’t want to learn. The day seems to go by fast and it is now ready for bed. We are going to watch a movie on DVD before we go to sleep.
Saturday, April 28, 2012
We got up about 7am. I prepared breakfast while Mae put her hair up. We both seemed to keep busy but the time sure went by fast. I had talked to Bryce and so he stopped over and I showed him my ideas of installing a trailer hich to the pickup with the camper on it. this evening Mae and I went to Jeff and Gail’s where we had dinner and after getting the children to bed, we played games. It was almost 11:00 PM when we got home and started getting ready for bed.
Sunday, April 29, 2012
I slept the night in the recliner as my stomach was upset. I took care of the animals before breakfast. Mae and I both worked on the assignments as we were asked to help with the joint Priesthood and Relief Society meeting. It went well although we didn’t have time to present very much. I came home during Sunday school and then went back to Sacrament meeting. Bob had dinner ready when we got home. After eating I came downstairs and took a nap in the recliner. Mae also took a nap when she came down. I gathered the eggs this afternoon. Bob and I worked on setting the sprinkler timer. Jeff called and asked us if we could come over again to play games. I hadn’t planned on going anywhere but it could very well be only a short time left and Jeff and Gail will be moving away because of work. We did enjoy being with them. We played two games of Rook of which Jeff and I won both games. That is unusual for us to win. It was 10:30pm when we got home. I entered this entry and we went to bed.
Monday, April 30, 2012
Both Mae and I slept well last night. We got up about 7:30am. Bob and I went into see Deanna Davis for treatments. We stopped on the way in at Good Earth to take them some eggs and to buy some cereal and bread. After we finished with the treatments we went to Harvest Moon for a few other items. It was 1pm when we got home. I got me something for lunch, called the bus shop and told them that I could come back to work tomorrow. I also went out and checked on the doe with the new liter, as Mae had taken care of the animals this morning. She was afraid the doe was not taking care of the kits. She still has two that seem to be doing well. Mae went out to eat with her cousin, Joan. I worked on Indexing most of the afternoon. When Mae came home she turned on the TV to “Little House on the Prairie” and I watched that with her but during commercials I would continue my indexing. After dinner Mae went over to Jeff’s and tended the children while Jeff and Gail attended their finance class. I again continued indexing. I did two batches today, giving me a total of 551 names entered. It is 9pm and I am going to work tomorrow so I will get ready for bed.

Hi,
i have build some wireless sensors (http://nathan.chantrell.net/tinytx-wireless-sensor/) to work with my Raspberry Pi and RFM12Pi modul I bought on OpenEnergyMonitor Shop.
I have uploaded a receiver sketch from github https://github.com/nathanchantrell/TinyTX/blob/master/TinyTX_Water_RX/Ti....
Everythings works fine with the wireless nodes! I can use them as a sender and receiver.
The question is how to send a packet / value to a specific node? So for example the sketch above expects value 999 or 100.
To send it with RFM12Pi I tried the following in terminal window:
999,30a
It this correct, because the receiver does not react? How can I send single values and how are the values decoded/splited on the receiver side?
Best regards,
Christian
Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
Can anyone help me?
Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
It looks like the payload structure expected by the TinyTX_Water_RX.ino is 2 integers, "sensor value" and "tx voltage" which is 4 bytes.
You can only send values 0 to 255, if you try to send 999 directly it will probably get truncated at 8bits and become 231. to send 999 you need to send 2 byte values 231,3, (231 + 3*256),.there should also be 2 bytes for voltage eg 3.1volts would be 28,12, (28 + 12*256 = 3100 mV). the complete payload would then be 231,3,28,12,
Looking at line 56 of the TinyTX_Water_RX.ino it seems to be listening for node 1 set in line 21.
So you could try experimenting with 231,3,28,12,1a and see how you get on,
Paul
Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
I have a wireless relay project that is controlled by rfm2pi board, my code (for atmega32u4) is here https://github.com/mharizanov/new_Funky/blob/master/examples/wireless_relay/wireless_relay.ino
you can adapt it to your need, but it has all you need to get going.
to turn the relay I send a "1,0,7s", to turn it off "0,0,7s"
Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
Hi guys,
thank you very much! I hope this will help to fix my problem.
I will try it this evening.
I will also realize a wireless relais. I found out that there is a bistable relais boad which can be directly poerwerde by the TinyTX board. http://shop.ciseco.co.uk/3v-to-5v-bistable-latching-relay-kit/

Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
Hi,
I think I finally solved the problem. Thank you su much guys! It took me days to find this out :-)
So I always have to send two comma seperated values for one payload variable in my sketch, is that correct? If i use these values with RFM2Pi and the sketch below, everthing works fine. I can control each PIN output and set it to low or high.

Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
I don't believe you mean this:
if (channel == 5 && channelState == 1) {
digitalWrite(0, HIGH);
} else if (channel == 5 ) {
digitalWrite(9, LOW);
}
(the dangers of copy-and-paste!)
And I think you could make that selection code much clearer if you used 'switch' and the ternary operator.
digitalWrite(8, HIGH);
delay(100);
digitalWrite(8, LOW);
switch (channel)
{
case 1 : digitalWrite(0, channelState == 1 ? HIGH : LOW);
break;
case 2 : digitalWrite(3, channelState == 1 ? HIGH : LOW);
break;
etc...
}
Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
Hi Paul! Of course a copy-and-paste problem. Thank you!
Thank you, this will reduce the sketch size for the attiny84.
Many thanks!
Best regards, Christian
Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
They are actually Roberts suggestions.
Only because the sketches declared "type def" structure dictates, for example if you change the "ints" for "chars" you would only need to send 1 value per payload variable and if you use Roberts suggestion you could just send one value to toggle the channels state, so just the 1 value would be required.
Paul
Re: Sending a packet from RFM12Pi to Nodes
Hi Paul,
excellent thank you!
I am new to programming Attiny's, but its really interesting!

Angular Material's elevation classes and mixins allow you to add separation between elements along the z-axis. All material design elements have resting elevations. In addition, some elements may change their elevation in response to user interaction. The Material Design spec explains how to best use elevation.
Angular Material provides two ways to control the elevation of elements: predefined CSS classes and mixins.
The easiest way to add elevation to an element is to simply add one of the predefined CSS classes
mat-elevation-z#
where #
is the elevation number you want, 0-24. Dynamic elevation can be
achieved by switching elevation classes:
<div [class.mat-elevation-z2]="!isActive" [class.mat-elevation-z8]="isActive"></div>
Elevations can also be added in CSS via the mat-elevation
mixin, which takes a number 0-24
indicating the elevation of the element as well as optional arguments for the elevation shadow's
color tone and opacity.
Since an elevation shadow consists of multiple shadow components of varying opacities, the
$opacity
argument of the mixin is considered a factor by which to scale these initial values
rather than an absolute value.
In order to use the mixin, you must import ~@angular/material/theming
:
@import '~@angular/material/theming';
.my-class-with-default-shadow {
// Adds a shadow for elevation level 2 with default color and full opacity:
@include mat-elevation(2);
}
.my-class-with-custom-shadow {
// Adds a shadow for elevation level 2 with color #e91e63 and 80% of the default opacity:
@include mat-elevation(2, #e91e63, 0.8);
}
For convenience, you can use the mat-elevation-transition
mixin to add a transition when the
elevation changes:
@import '~@angular/material/theming';
.my-class {
@include mat-elevation-transition;
@include mat-elevation(2);
&:active {
@include mat-elevation(8);
}
}

The European Workshop on Urban Climate Indicators tackles the design of relevant and computable urban climate indicators to study and adapt to climate change, specifically indicators that can be scaled in space and in time throughout Europe thanks to a better access to and better sharing of data.

Modelling urban climate phenomena and their impacts requires data about the topography, buildings characteristics, vegetation, and also data about the socio-economic context. It also requires expertise in the different computation domains, statistics, remote sensing, spatial analysis, machine learning and in the urban and climate domains to design relevant indicators.
Scalability in space and time refers to the capacity to use these indicators beyond an initial spatio-temporal scope, for example to compare values with another time period or with another city. It also refers to the change of level of detail for instance to contribute to european regulations based on facts and learnings that make sense at more local scales.
In terms of data, the Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment provides more resolute simulations and the Public Sector Information Reuse directive will lead to more high resolution geographical, meteorological and statistical data to be open in Europe. These are opportunities for urban climate indicators design. Yet, designing scalable urban climate indicators is hindered by multiple heterogeneities to consider, either heterogeneities between territories that have different topographies or different cultures, or heterogeneities in the technologies (remote sensing data, structured databases with different classifications) and also variations in rules affecting access, transparency and charging. This is altogether a typical application of heterogeneous information brokering on spatial data infrastructures.
EWUCI 2021 will be held online on May 17, 2021.
The meeting agenda is available here.

SUSPECT A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1996 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): **
SUSPECT (1987) is an involving film, but one that is peppered with actions that are either implausible or at least highly improbable. If your ability to suspend disbelief is strong, you will probably find yourself enjoying some of the courtroom drama and thriller aspects of the film - numerous flaws and all. None of the acting is great, but it is fairly compelling, and director Peter Yates (from THE RUN OF THE COUNTRY) knows how to make entertaining films.
In SUSPECT, a Washington DC judge commits suicide and his secretary is killed. A homeless person Carl Wayne Anderson (Liam Neeson from ROB ROY) is accused of killing her for the nine dollars in her purse. Anderson is assigned to overworked public defender Kathleen Riley (Cher). Anderson attacks and hurts her as well as some of the guards. Soon however, they find out he is "deaf and dumb" and a Vietnam vet with a troubled past. He never learned to sign since he had no one to talk to.
The show switches to the capital where lobbyist Eddie Sanger (Dennis Quaid from THE RIGHT STUFF) does everything including sleeping with a Congresswoman to get her vote. Sanger is called to be on Anderson's jury. Although he tries to get off, he is unsuccessful. In a show full of unbelievable actions, he falls for Riley and starts investigating the case on his own. He meets with her on the sly to share his ideas on how to approach the case. Sure.
Meanwhile, Riley is being stalked by a religious fanatic and homeless person.  Making her life equally miserable is a Republican judge, Judge Matthew Helms (John Mahoney from PRIMAL FEAR), who for some mysterious reason wants the trial over quickly with no delays no matter how valid Riley's reasons. Yes, this show is quite predictable. If a Hollywood screenwriter makes a point of labeling someone a Republican, the wardrobe department might as well have him wear a black hat through the rest of the picture.
The music by Michael Kamen is sappy. Whenever the director needs extra tension, and Eric Roth's script can't provide enough, Yates turns to the composer to crack up the violins. Actually, the script gets almost laughable at points. After complaining about not seeing a movie in a year and not being able to have a kid because she is too busy to date, Riley laments, "I spend all of my day with murders and rapists, and what's really crazy, I like them."
Even with the ridiculous script, I managed somehow to like the performances by Cher and Quaid. One of my favorite small actors Joe Mantegna (from HOUSE OF GAMES) plays prosecutor Charlie Stella. As for Neeson, this is one of my least favorite of his films. His performance in it does nothing for me.
I could probably write an article just on the flaws of the show. Among those not already mentioned are the fact that Riley somehow immediately knows that Anderson is left-handed. She also talks to him expecting to be heard when she is not looking at him. Since he doesn't read lips and can't hear, this makes it a little difficult. Nevertheless, he seems to be able to hear part of what she is saying anyway.
Typical of the show, the ending comes out of left field. A fun show to watch in parts, but one where they feel the audience is not smart enough to see through all of the ridiculous contrivances in the plot.
SUSPECT runs a little long at 1:58. It is rated R for some violence and a little bad language. It would be fine for any teenager and maybe kids a bit younger. This is a somewhat enjoyable but frustrating show where there are just too many unbelievable parts for me to be able to recommend it. I give it **.
**** = One of the top few films of this or any year. A must see film. *** = Excellent show. Look for it. ** = Average movie. Kind of enjoyable. * = Poor show.  Totally unbearable.

Susan Granger's review of "CLAY PIGEONS" (Gramercy Pictures)
To call this a creepy black comedy is a serious understatement. This debut feature from director/producers Ridley and Tony Scott's new Scott Free production company is about as "noir" as film gets, this side of "Fargo." The story begins on a sweltering summer day as two buddies, Gregory Sporleder and Joaquin Phoenix ("Return to Paradise"), are shooting at empty beer bottles in a canyon near the sleepy town of Mercer, Montana.  Admitting the truth of the accusation, Joaquin tries to talk him into lowering the gun but, instead, Gregory kills himself, making it look as if Joaquin murdered him. That's just the beginning of this twisted tale.  This lusty, mysterious stranger also befriends Joaquin. Then Janeane Garofalo shows up as an FBI agent tracking a serial killer on the loose in the region. And more people keep turning up dead. "I usually say, 'The more the merrier', but a murder scene is not really crowd appropriate," she mutters sardonically, criticizing the sheriff's penchant for allowing anyone and everyone to mill around, inspecting evidence. Since he's sleeping with one victim, dating another, and found a third, Joaquin becomes the bewildered prime suspect, but writer Matt Healey and director David Dobkin soon convince us that things are not always what they seem. On the Granger Movie Gauge of 1 to 10, "Clay Pigeons" is a silly, slick, surreal 6. It's more of the madness, mayhem, and murder flooding the screens today.

| 2014 | Dealing with Conflict |
|
When I was living in France, I lived in an apartment that was not in very good shape, even by French standards. The bathroom was particularly bad. The toilet would wobble every time we sat down on it (because we were fat, according to our landlady), and some previous tenant had sealed off gaps between the wall and the pipes but stuffing socks into them. In the 3.5 years that we lived in Paris, we were never in a position to move. My landlady, while not fundamentally a bad person, was very busy, and was out of the city most of the time. She also seemed to have a blind spot as far as the state of the apartment was concerned. The conflict arose about a year into our stay there. The downstairs neighbor came up to report that water from our bathroom was leaking into her closet, making it unusable. This came as a complete surprise, since we had not seen any evidence of water leakage at all. However, given the general state of the bathroom, I wasn't exactly shocked. The rules in France regarding renter vs landlord responsibilities with respect to insurance claims are a bit different than they are here, but no less confusing, especially for an outsider. Basically, if the water damage was not caused by overflowing water, it's not the responsibility of the tenant. Since we hadn't had any flooding incidents, I thought I could just let my landlady know and let her take the appropriate action. However, the landlady refused to get involved, claiming that even if she was the owner of the apartment, it was our responsibility as the tenants to get our insurance to cover the repairs. Obviously, my insurance company scoffed at this request. Without going into too much detail, the whole situation quickly devolved into a blame game between all parties involved. After many months, it came to light that not only had this happened before, but the problem was being caused by building-wide plumbing problems that had to be handled by the homeowners association of the building. I never found out how much my landlady knew about this and how much she just wanted to ignore the problem or pass it on to other people. I don't know what I could have done differently in this situation. I could have been more assertive with the landlady, but it's hard in a situation where you don't know the laws and ins and out of things like insurance and your status as a non-citizen comes into play. I really didn't have any power in the situation, other than breaking the lease and moving out of the apartment. Honestly, I still get angry when I think about this experience. I do recognize that harboring a grudge is unproductive and a waste of energy. I have two big takeaways from this experience. I get less angry if I think of the bathroom situation as a mis-alignment of goals rather than a case where the landlady was out to take advantage of me. It really had little to do with me personally. Her goal were to have the problem fixed with as little financial or time involvement as possible. My goal was to stop the downstairs neighbor from bothering me about her closet and to stop being blamed for a situation over which I clearly had no control. In a future situation, trying to agree on a shared outcome might be a way to lessen conflict. Being in a conflict where there was a power imbalance was a really good learning experience. In conflict situations where I am on the other side of that imbalance, I've learned both not to take advantage and also to consider how the other person is feeling. |

This story comes from a blog post I wrote ten years ago over at my old blog. I was browsing old blog-entries a while ago and came upon it. It still amuses me, so I thought I'd repost it over here.
Alan Jackson was watching the sailboat move slowly across the water on his own private section branch of the Michinoga River in Tennesee. He had bought this small river off branch nearly five years ago, after the hit of his coutry and western single "Chattahoochee".
And now, these young kids, real alternative, rock and roll types by the look of them, were sailing in his waters.
Alan bristled his mustache and squinted into the distance. Yep...the signs were still up...the ones that said this was private property. That this beach, this water, and that yonder island were completely off limits. Not much else a man can do to keep people out of his water....can't exactly build a dam without pissing off the greenopinkos.
The aging country and western singer rose from his lawn chair, which he paid $800 for, mostly because he could afford to spend $800 on a lawn chair, and he could point dinner guests over at his lawn chair and say, "That chair there costs me 800 bucks...that's 800 smackers for my ass, not yours."
He began to move towards the water, a slow meander at first, growing to a determined walk, and into a mechanical jog. His eyes stayed focused on the kids in the sail boat. As he began to jog, his cowboy hat fell off, and if anyone was bothering to watch him very closely, which they weren't, he would notice that Alan Jackson didn't have ears anymore, just something like looked like a fleshy drum where his ears should be.
Alan Jackson lept into the water, his clothes still on, but almost immediately after hitting the water, they came off. At first he swam, less and less so as his body changed into something far more streamlined and the flailing arms turned to fins and his legs, which were now starting to look more like a tail fin than the two lower appengages of the greatest ape, began to drive him forward in the water at greater and greater speeds.
All this time, Alan Jacksons eyes, now jet black and soulless, stayed focus on the sailboat just a few hundred yards out from shore. As his dorsal fin, a metallica grey verticle blade, cut through the surface of the water.
Alan Jackson hummed (in as much as he could hum in this body) the eerie and repetive theme from the Jaws series, as he prepared to teach a group of disrespectful young city boys a lesson in property rights...
"Yeah, way down yonder on the Chattahoochee
it gets hotter than a hoochie coochie.
We layed rubber on the georgia asphalt,
we got a litte crazy,
but we never got caught!"
Except these kids did get caught.

Come to Test Tube--"Speed Dating for Product Feedback"--on 11/21
If your start-up has just launched a new feature and seeks feedback from like-minded product managers, developers and designers, come to Test Tube on Thursday, Nov. 21 at Gilt’s 2 Park Ave. office. To attend, just RSVP here.
Founded by Delve News CTO Tom Weingarten and UX Designer Pierre Wooldridge, Test Tube has been described by the likes of PandoDaily as “speed dating for product feedback.” It’s usability testing at its most fun!
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: You bring your wireframes, sketches, and just-baked apps, and arrive with one clear task you want the user to achieve. For example, it could be navigating through your onboarding, posting an event, listing an item on your site, or taking and sharing a photo. Over the course of an hour-and-a-half, you’ll meet with five or six other start-ups and take turns giving and receiving feedback on each others’ products. You’ll have seven minutes to watch (and listen!) to another start-up interact with your product before the tables turn and you test their product, too.
We’ll kick things off with a short presentation by Gilt UX Researcher/Taxonomist Amy DeCicco on how Gilt does usability testing. Then Tom and Pierre will chat briefly about the basics of usability testing and share tips on how to get the most out of Test Tube.
ATTEND FOR FREE! Simply send a tweet to let people know you’re attending the the event, and Test Tube will refund your ticket. Be sure to include @testtubenyc and the link to meetup.com/testtube. All refunds will be processed the day after the event.
