CON-AIR A film review by Andrew Hicks Copyright 1997 Andrew Hicks / Fatboy Productions
(1997) **1/2 (out of four)
The titles change, but the rest is the same. Summer action movies have become a staple of modern cinema, and CON-AIR does little to distinguish itself from the rest. It's got a lot of low-brow entertainment in the form of violence, explosions and bad one- liners. It makes the good and bad characters appealing with big- name veterans of the genre, like Nicolas Cage (THE ROCK) and John Malkovich (IN THE LINE OF FIRE).
Both of those movies were far classier in their presentation of the action essentials. IN THE LINE OF FIRE actually had a little in the way of character development and characters we cared about and THE ROCK featured high school level writing, with some good moments that reminded us the characters themselves knew they were stuck in an unbelievable action movie. CON-AIR is written on the junior high level, and these characters go through the routine in predictable fashion. The three most popular settings for action flicks are cruise ships, the middle of nowhere and airplanes. Since the current releases SPEED 2 and BREAKDOWN have taken the first two settings, CON-AIR appropriates the airplane motif, as you no doubt guessed from the title. Call it PASSENGER 58.
First comes the obligatory prologue. Some action movies skip this and go straight into the action, but CON-AIRwants us to take it somewhat seriously, so we see returning soldier Cage meet up with his barmaid wife for a romantic slow dance.  He accidentally kills one and is sent off to jail for a 10-year sentence.
Flash forward about 8 years. Cage is being paroled and his cellmate, played by Mykelti Williamson (Bubba from FORREST GUMP), is coming with him. Yeah, they're going on the giant convict airplane that's being used to transport some of the worst criminals in the country. The Clintons always fly first class on it. So it's a planeful of crazies and Cage, with long messianic hair and a week's worth of George Michael stubble.
Security is top-notch on con-air, as always, but three or four of the prisoners manage to take over the plane in less than five minutes, an amazing ode to the American attention span.  That angle is never developed, though, because that would be plot, and we can't handle plot in a movie like this. We just have to remember who's bad and who's good.
Besides Cage, there aren't too many on the right side of the law. There's a chained guard (Rachel Ticotin) who spends most of her time being eyed by a big rapist, and a U.S. Marshall (John Cusack) who manages to figure everything out at the exact right time to further the action.  Hell, Cage won an Oscar last year, Malkovich was nominated for one and here they both are trading comic book one-liners and shooting at each other. We even have indie film great Steve Buscemi as a child molester who spends most of his time commenting on the action instead of participating in it.
CON-AIRcould have been better, if the dialogue was worthy of the actors who spoke it and perhaps the writers hadn't tried so hard to throw in every action cliche in the book. It also has a disturbing side to it, with all the talk from the rapists and child molesters, that keeps it from being completely fun to watch.  It's James Bond without the class.

The Latest: Steve Bannon testifies in Roger Stone trial
by EndPlayWASHINGTON (AP) - The Latest on the Roger Stone trial (all times local):
9:15 p.m.
Steve Bannon says Donald Trump's campaign viewed Roger Stone as an "access point" to WikiLeaks and tried to use him to get advanced word about hacked emails damaging to Hillary Clinton.
Bannon, Trump's former campaign CEO, told a federal court Friday that Stone had boasted about his ties to WikiLeaks and its founder Julian Assange, alerting them to pending new batches of damaging emails.
Bannon said: "The campaign had no official access to WikiLeaks or to Julian Assange. But Roger would be considered if we needed an access point."
It was the first time that anyone affiliated with the Trump campaign acknowledged in court that they had actively sought material from WikiLeaks.
Stone is on trial for lying to Congress and witness tampering.
__
2:25 p.m.
Steve Bannon is making his first appearance in the Roger Stone trial as a prosecution witness.
The former senior Trump campaign and administration official was called earlier than expected Friday on the third day of testimony.
Bannon was one of several officials connected to the Trump campaign who was in contact with Stone. Stone is being tried in federal court on charges of lying to Congress and witness tampering.
Bannon is expected to testify about a flurry of calls between Stone, Bannon, Paul Manafort and others in the Trump campaign orbit.
__
10:30 a.m.
A comedian and former talk show host is telling jurors in the Roger Stone trial that the political operative pressured him into backing up lies he told Congress.
Randy Credico says Stone pressed him to "go along" with a false account of the operative's contacts with WikiLeaks during the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign.
The testimony Friday is damaging to Stone as he faces a federal trial on charges of lying to Congress and witness tampering.
Credico has occasionally provoked laughter in court and warnings from the judge. He says Stone used references from the movie "Godfather" to intimidate him into backing up Stone's testimony to Congress.
Stone is a confidant of President Donald Trump who claimed he had inside information that WikiLeaks would release information damaging to Hillary Clinton.

General Background: 21 year old male, once an extremely heavy user of psychedelics, particularly research chemicals. Stopped using drugs for a couple of years, after recovering from an opiate/benzodiazepine addiction catalyzed by HPPD/Psychosis (the result of reckless hallucinogen abuse). Recently resumed taking opiates and stimulants extremely sporadically.
I had been feeling antsy all week, and decided that I would indulge in a methamphetamine binge over the weekend. my contact kept delaying, and I was eager to obtain drugs before friday morning (I work strange hours) in order to ensure I was well stocked by friday night. on thursday morning I serendipitously awoke with the telephone number of an old drug dealer in my head. this was curious as I had not called him in about six months and have a bad memory for telephone
numbers.
I met up with him and bought a gram of methcathinone (I emigrated to south Africa a few years ago, and in contrast to the US/UK, methcathinone is a relatively common substance here, as are methaqualone and 2C-B). I have never previously ingested this substance. I started working (I work from home) soon after buying the drugs, and couldn't help but snort a thin rail of the methcathinone (hereafter referred to as 'cat') - perhaps 20mg in total. I spent the next few minutes sitting at my desk and working - the onset was fairly gradual. I noticed my typing was increasing in speed and I was concentrating with pinpoint accuracy and had a very clear mind. there was not a feeling of euphoria, and no marked libidinal increase (if anything, there was impairment) which are effects that most characterize the mostly-stimulant phenethylamines for me. (note: I write this later that evening and am still very much feeling the effects)
I snorted two more lines, and went out to buy some cold drinks, cigarettes and chewing gum. my teeth were grinding, I was licking my lips, I had a slight temperature - I was high. something unusual I noticed was that I was not smoking very many cigarettes. I usually smokeforty a day, and much more when I am speeding. I would light a cigarette, take a few puffs,place it in an ashtray and then forget about it while immersed in my work (computer programming).I also noticed that I would be sitting in traditionally uncomfortable positions, though I could ignorethe irritating build up of lactic acid in my thighs caused by such postures. intermittently I would notice my shoulder muscles were raised and tense and would consciously relax them, though this is not unheard of when I am sober. another physiological effect I consistently noticed was a greatly amplified sense of smell.
My thought patterns were not significantly affected - I experienced extremely mild paranoia when walking to the 7-11, but I suffer from social anxiety so it is to be expected. when speaking to colleagues on the telephone, I did not emit the hyperactive, prodigiously energetic monologue that I expect from amphetamines. on the contrary, I believe I spoke less than usual, and my comments sometime struck me as sounding stilted, repetitious and perhaps shallowly affected (though that may be attributable to background-paranoia).
After doing another larger line (~40mg), I spent the last few hours of the work day in an intense, zen-like state of robotic concentration, and I accomplished roughly three man-days of work within that time period. I was quite impressed with myself throughout. I felt subsumed by a ruthlessly mechanical systematism, periodically gathering my thoughts and then flawlessly implementing them with faultless short term memory. the lack of both uncharacteristic euphoria or a heightened sense of empathy directly contributed to my unbroken focus. all of the characteristics of the mental-state commonly called 'flow'.
As I finished up with work, I noticed I was mildly dehydrated and my leg muscles were fairly tense, which is to be expected. I was also getting hungry, which indicated that the effects were subsiding. after talking a short walk to the 24-hour store, I returned home and took stock. I decided I would make a night of it, and I divided the remaining 800mg into several massive lines and insufflated them at fifteeen minute intervals.
The burn was significant, and I experienced considerable nausea once or twice as large amounts of the cat slid down my throat, though this was mitigated by chewing flavoured gum and drinking water. what I can garner from the literature indicates that 800mg is a non-inconsiderable amount of this material to snort, though I did not experience a 'rush', but the familiar amphetamine body load was very much present, much more so than previously (wildly tingling scalp, hot/cold flushes, absolutely dripping with sweat.

CRY, THE BELOVED COUNTRY A film review by John Schuurman Copyright 1996 John Schuurman
Directed by: Darrell Jones Roodt Reviewed by John Schuurman
The only bad thing about *Cry, the Beloved Country* is that its run in the "big houses" has been so very short. It ran in Chicago a scant two weeks. Doubtless the film has lost money for Miramax. One has to wonder why the studio decided to make the investment at all, what with apartheid in South Africa being dismantled and all. It seems that for a movie whose prominent feature is a hated political system to succeed, the politics have to be current. But there is the rub. In my eyes, the thing that makes the movie work is that the cruel system of oppression is now a fresh but receding memory. Had the system been current, the movie would have been much more harsh and strident. The political agenda to break the hated system would have dominated (and destroyed) this work as a film.
Now, given a small buffer of time since the real thing, it can concentrate on being a redemption story set in a beautiful but treacherous place. The memory of apartheid is fresh enough that it doesn't have to be explained, it simply is the great pall that hangs over the whole. The action of the movie then gets its poignancy and becomes all the more refreshing as you see convergence and healing and forgiveness take place under this shroud.
"Cry" is a faithful remake of Alan Paton's great novel by the same name. Rev. Stephen Kumalo, (a simple Zulu pastor given heroic dimensions by the incomparable James Earl Jones) receives news that he must go to the great and frightening city of Johannesburg to try to rescue his sister and his son. He finds only tragedy. His sister is reduced to the life of a prostitute and his son kills a man in a botched robbery attempt.
The fascinating thing of the movie is watching Kumalo put one faithful foot after the other, never failing in his trust, always in the scriptures or in prayer, looking to the Lord.
Jones' portrayal of Kumalo is so good and moving he deserves the big awards for the work. It is sad that he probably won't even be noticed because of the failed economy of the thing.
The great moments are the reconciliation moments between James Jarvis (Richard Harris) a wealthy white racist landowner and Kumalo. As the pious pastor and the supremacist farmer encounter each other, and Kumalo tells Jarvis that it is his son who has killed Jarvis' boy, we watch as recognition, hatred, and forgiveness are processed. That such process can happen is our audacious hope in the face of our post-apartheid, post-OJ, post million-man-march angst. This is a deeply spiritual movie that has come at just the right time. Too bad most folks won't see it.

I have attempted to use my emonTx V3 running the Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL sketch. At this point I do not have anything attached to the triac output although I have an SSR that I intend to use. Nor do I have a temperature sensor.
The sketch is written for the V2 so pin assignments need to be changed.
Here is mine:
// Arduino I/O pin usage
#define VOLTSPIN 0
#define CT1PIN 1
#define CT2PIN 2
#define LEDPIN 6 // was 9
// #define SYNCPIN 6 // this output will be a 50Hz square wave locked to the 50Hz input
// #define SAMPPIN 5 // this output goes high each time an ADC conversion starts or completes
#define RFMSELPIN 10
#define RFMIRQPIN 2
#define SDOPIN 12
#define W1PIN 4 // 1-Wire pin for temperature
#define TRIACPIN 5 // triac driver pin terminal block next to reset - was 3
Initially I used the pins detailed in the Wiki but the radio link did not work. I looked at a working sketch for the V3 and found that the RFMIRQ and RFMSEL were different to the Wiki and the same as the V2 sketch. I have also commented out references to SYNCPIN and SAMPPIN within the sketch.
After uploading the sketch and using the serial monitor all looked okay with the expected readout. My Raspberry Pi emoncms and emonGLCD both looked good. Then I disconnected my laptop from the emontx and the radio stopped working! Connect it back again and it's working again.
So I guess that the programmer is holding a pin high or low and as soon as I disconnect.......
Can somebody help me out please?
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Is JP2 shorted so the emonTx v3 is able to power from AC adapter ?
Paul
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Hi Paul, thanks for your input.
Yes, JP2 is shorted. The Tx v3 works fine using the standard sketch powered from the AC adapter.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
I'm looking at that for you. I'm not getting past line 448 - SDO is not going high so it sticks there forever waiting.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Thanks Robert, I appreciate it.
I am surprised that this has not come up before. Is there nobody out there who has tried the emonTx V3 with that sketch?
John.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
There seems to have been little interest in MartinR's sketch - even before the V3. I don't understand why. My best guess is people don't understand it and are frightened by the low-level commands used for setting up the radio and temperature measurement etc.
Unfortunately, Ciseco don't appear to have gone into any great detail about the interconnections between the processor and the RFM12B, apart from saying D8 is needed to turn on the wireless (which appears not to help).
BTW, RFMIRQPIN appears to be unused.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Thanks for your insight.
The theory of the sketch from a superficial point of view to me looks very elegant, I hasten to add that my actual understanding of it is pretty poor, however, from a practical point of view I thought the implementation looked straightforward.
My lack of knowledge is betrayed by the fact that, apart from the pin reassignments, I just expected it to work on the V3
re RFMIRQPIN: Oh, right. It has been defined but not incorporated in the sketch.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
It ought to work, and others have reported it working, on the V3. But the situation is slightly confused by the use of the RFu 328, which appears to connect the RFM12B and the ATMega 328 slightly differently to the V2. I'm going to have to read up on the SPI library and take the JeeLib library apart to see exactly what happens in there.
What's also puzzling me is the problem that I have is totally independent of whether the programmer is connected or not - and that's not what you report, so I'm wondering whether there are two separate problems. I may have a slightly different RFu328? One thing you could check: can you comment out all serial output and see what happens then when you disconnect the programmer? It just might be that unhandled serial output is blocking the radio.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Thanks for your help.
With all serial.print statements commented out the result remains the same.:-(
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
The RFu-328 schematic seems to confirm the pin numbers in the v3 wiki are correct
Is it possible to retry those settings whilst the serial prints are still commented out and without the programmer attached ?
maybe the serial activity or programmer presence prevented the RF alone from working
The D8 instruction is far from clear but as the schematic shows D8 at the "3rd 7-way row of pads" which are not physically connected to a RFM12B it may be safe to assume that applies only to the alternative SRF module.

Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Paul, nice one, that works for me. I'd PM'd John earlier to say I'd gone down with a cold and had a non-functioning brain, so I haven't looked at the problem.
But note, RFMIRQPIN although defined is not used in the sketch - in RFu_jeelib/RFu_RF12.cpp I believe it's called RFM_IRQ and it's set to 2 but there's a note saying that it can be hooked anywhere subject to some other changes.
John,
Does your SSR work with an input that only swings to 3.3 V? And what load does it put on the output? Why I mention that is the dc supply derived from the ac-ac adapter is strictly limited in the current it can supply, and if you need more than 9.3 mA (11.5 mA if you don't have a temperature sensor) then you need a separate 5 V supply to power the emonTx V3.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
No worries Robert, sorry to hear your not feeling 100%.
It will be interesting to hear if it works for John also, as his symptoms were slightly different, Do you know if it was just the pin mapping or if the serial prints and/or programmer effect the RF? I don't have a v3 to try unfortunately.
I really don't know my way around the RFu_jeelib/RFu_RF12.cpp but thought this line set the (unused) IRQ pin to 3, no ?
A note for anyone else adopting this adaptation, the TRIACPIN is originally digitalpin 3 and that pin needs to be freed up for RFMIRQPIN, John has disabled SAMPPIN and reassigned TRIACPIN as digitalpin 5.
Just out of interest do you think this sketch could be stretched utilize all 4 of the v3's ct's ?
Paul
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
I'll only answer the bits my brain is up to!
"but thought this line set the (unused) IRQ pin to 3, no ?"  Unless you want D2 for the pulse input (though I can't say it's a lot of use other than as a cross-check / proof that it's working properly, unless you're trying to synchronise this with the meter's energy levels).
Dan Woodie did 3 CT's @ 60 Hz: http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/2679 with a reduced sample rate, so it may well do it, otherwise dropping the number of samples a bit (that's where SAMPPIN & SYNCPIN come in) should do the trick.
I am a bit concerned that John is apparently seeing a quite different cause, which I can't explain other than the serial output was blocking the radio, but even that is back-to-front and it doesn't appear to be the case anyway. Mine is now sending RF with or without the programmer connected - but before the change to RFMSELPIN it didn't work at all, programmer or no programmer. We'll see what he says.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Yes, you're right using digitalpin 2 for TRIACPIN would be much better, as changing W1PIN from D4 to D5 would then retain the temp sensing . I guess A5 will still need to be assigned because of R24 so the sketch would need a small mod to provide a "PWRPIN"
SAMPPIN & SYNCPIN could be assigned digital pins 9 & 10, it looks like both are available for assignment and although not available at the connectors they are available at the test points marked as "Dig 9" & "Dig 10" (next to the reset button & below the ISP conn).
So a pinout could look like...
I suppose it is possible if John has a v1.1 RFu then the connected programmer may influence the RFM12B's nINT/VDI pin via the linked RST line (v1.1 only).
Paul
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Many thanks. Living in Australia I am also out of sync with the rest of the known world!
I have amended as per your earlier post Paul. The symptoms have changed insomuch that there is now no radio even with programmer connected to emonTx and pc connected to programmer. (Although LED - pin6 - flashes periodically).
RFMSELPIN 4
RFMIRQPIN 3
Paul, your latest post the table now shows RFMIRQPIN connects to PIN 4 and no mention of RFMSELPIN.
How do I know if I have a v1.1 RFu?
John.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Hi John, not sure what happened to the table I did check it more than once (but clearly not very well) It was supposed to read...
Analogue pin assignments
Did you try unplugging the programmer as well? the LED flasking suggests the sketch is running and therefore probably executing the "send" code but the rfm12b is not actioning it. Possibly due to the programmers presence.
I don't think you will be able to determine the version without sliding the pcb out to see the number on the RFu-328, see in the top RH corner here and bottom left corner here. If you bought it recently it's unlikely to be a v1.1.
Paul
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
SOLVED!
Thanks for that table - it focused the mind.
Original problem was that I had RFMSELPIN as 10 - it did still not work when changed correctly to 4 but what I omitted to change was the pin assignment for W1PIN!
Paul and Robert thanks for all your help.
The table should be offered as a standard to help avoid similar cross wires in the future.
John
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
I've got a better idea - I'll add the table and modified sketch to MartinR's PLL Diverter article.I've added the table to MartinR's Diverter article.
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Would it be worth also including a link back here or a brief explanation of "PWRPIN (temp sensor power)" since it's not mentioned anywhere in the original sketches?
Paul
Re: Diverting surplus PV Power: PLL using emonTx V3
Doh!  It's a good point, that of course didn't exist on the V2. (Also, MartinR said his original - not published - design used temperature to switch diversion, so he didn't use the tank thermostat, hence the 'diverted energy' really meant that, not "energy available for diversion" which is what it means if the tank 'stat turns diversion off.)


Money Play. Should Red double? If doubled, should White take?
pips Red=121 White=126
(CorrectAnswer= 0/0, ErrorScore= 0)
With a close race, Red’s unwieldy structure and White’s strong board it is the double rather than the take that is in question in this position.
Rollouts give double and no double the same equity so this is a position where you need to judge your opponent. If there is any chance that he would drop then of course the double is mandatory. Against most players I would take a roll here. The position is non-volatile and I’d rather give White a more difficult decision later on.

Advanced Bill payment Solution (ABP) is an ATM-like machine used to pay utility bills instead of withdrawing cash from a bank account. The Advanced Bill payment Solution can be programmed to accept payments from only one utility, like the water company, or from many utilities, like the water, natural gas, electric, and phone companies.
Advanced Bill payment Solution provides one stop shopping for consumers. The water, Electric, and phone bills can all be paid in one place at one time.
Advance Bill Payment empowers businesses to automate a wide-range of processes including complex banking transactions, customer-facing retail and hospitality interactions, and the secure printing of sensitive information and negotiable documents. Our ABP kiosks support multiple applications including bill payment, price checker, quick serve orders, and digital signage. Our secure printers and MICR printing solutions support even the most time- and information-sensitive applications, such as payroll, accounts payable and prescription printing.
Advanced Bill payment kiosks also benefit utility companies. Employees of the utility companies spend less time processing payments from endless lines of customers, and spend more time taking care of the few customers with special needs or other necessary tasks. Advanced Bill payment kiosks also have a lower cost for upkeep when compared to hiring more staff to process consumer payments. The cost of hiring enough personnel to accept utility payments 24 hours a day would be prohibitive for any company, but the comparatively low cost of upkeep of a ABP kiosk allows utility companies’ to provide this service to customers.
Advance Bill Payment-accepting technology can help boost a retailer's bottom line. By partnering with a service provider such as a utility company to accept payments, retailers draw more customers into the store, increasing revenue. Advance Bill Payment kiosk can increase the efficiency of accepting payments, without taking up the time of store employees.
Advance Bill Payment kiosks offer benefits to payers, billers and retailers. Payers enjoy the flexibility of paying on time but without having to write a check, while billers see significant cost savings. And retailers increase revenue and give customers yet another reason to stop by the store.

Using the Lathe.
The lathe is controlled by using the square and circular markers.
The top marker on the axis line can only move on the axis.
The bottom marker on the axis line is fixed.
The circular markers control the shape of the lathe blade (the line joining the two markers).
Further adjustments to the blade can be made by adding new markers.
Click anywhere on the blade and a dialogue box opens, so you can do this.
This dialogue box can also be used to straighten or curve sections of the blade and to delete them.

SINLocalNotification Class Reference
| Inherits from | NSObject |
|---|---|
| Declared in | SINLocalNotification.h |
Overview
SINLocalNotification can be used to specify presentation data for a local push that is to be used for an incoming call.
The properties are mirroring the properties available for UILocalNotification.
alertBody
The message displayed in the notification alert.
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *alertBody
Discussion
Assign a string or, preferably, a localized-string key (using NSLocalizedString) as the value of the message. If the value of this property is non-nil, an alert is displayed. The default value is nil (no alert).
Declared In
SINLocalNotification.h
hasAction
A Boolean value that controls whether the notification shows or hides the alert action.
@property (nonatomic) BOOL hasAction
Discussion
Assign NO to this property to hide the alert button or slider. (This effect requires alertBody to be non-nil.) The default value is YES.
Declared In
SINLocalNotification.h
alertAction
The title of the action button or slider.
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *alertAction
Discussion
Assign a string or, preferably, a localized-string key (using NSLocalizedString) as the value. The alert action is the title of the right button of the alert or the value of the unlock slider, where the value replaces “unlock” in “slide to unlock”. If you specify nil, and alertBody is non-nil, “View” (localized to the preferred language) is used as the default value.
Declared In
SINLocalNotification.h
alertLaunchImage
Identifies the image used as the launch image when the user taps (or slides) the action button (or slider).
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *alertLaunchImage
Discussion
The string is a filename of an image file in the application bundle. This image is a launching image specified for a given notification; when the user taps the action button (for example, “View”) or moves the action slider, the image is used in place of the default launching image. If the value of this property is nil (the default), the system either uses the previous snapshot, uses the image identified by the UILaunchImageFile key in the application’s Info.plist file, or falls back to Default.png.
Declared In
SINLocalNotification.h
soundName
The name of the file containing the sound to play when an alert is displayed.
@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *soundName
Discussion

Docker is an open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship, and run distributed applications. Consisting of Docker Engine, a portable, lightweight runtime and packaging tool, and Docker Hub, a cloud service for sharing applications and automating workflows, Docker enables apps to be quickly assembled from components and eliminates the friction between development, QA, and production environments. As a result, IT can ship faster and run the same app, unchanged, on laptops, data center VMs, and any cloud. (docker.com)
The underlying technology is mature (cgroups, namespaces, copy-on-write systems)

[gecode-users] Display the values of a set of variable without duplicates
Amina Kemmar
kemmar.amina at gmail.com
Fri May 31 09:59:58 CEST 2013
Hello,
I already asked for the following problem:
According to the variables defined in our model (x,y,z,k), I obtained the following solutions :
1,1,2,3
1,1,5,6
1,1,7,9
1.1,8,8
I am interested to the values of the two variable x and y, so I want to avoid the enumeration
of the three last solution in order to display just the first solution.
I got the following response:
One way to do it is as follows:
- You create a space s that only has a brancher for x and y
- You create a search engine e1 for s and find a solution, say s1
- You post a brancher in s1 for z and k.
- You create a search engine e2 for s and find just a single solution!
- You can then also get more solutions from e1 and repeat the previous two
steps.
Thank you for the solution, it works very well, but I have an other problem
which is the enumeration order of the variables x, y, z and k. I must begin
the branching from the variables z and k, then x, y (In this way, Gecode
enumerates quickly the solutions but for the first order "x,y,z,k", it takes
about 30 minutes to enumerate the first solution).
Is there an other solution?
Thank you.

In my previous post I provided some info about setting up the server for rails app.
Now I am going to describe the Nginx configuration and example of Capistrano deployment file.
One thing that I don't want to do for every new app I deploy is to go to the web server and change the settings (as a root user) so that the web server picks the Rails application.
In order to avoid that I decided to use nginx's include command. It allows to add include multiple nginx config files using UNIX wildcards.
So by simply adding this line to the nginx.config I make it possible to configure Nginx from Rails applicatoins themselves:
include /home/*/apps/*/current/nginx.conf;
.
I decided to include all configs within http
tag so that a Rails app can configure multiple servers for itself.
There are obvious drawbacks for this:
- It is less "safe" as on application might affect others if you will start adding Nginx settings outside of the
server
tag. But I am ready to sacrifice this for the sake of having more flexibility by assuming all server citizens are good guys. - We still need to have root access to restart the Nginx. We shouldn't need to do it often, so that's ok with me.
- To deploy a rails app (and any Rack based app), user should put the app under his home directory in
apps/[name]/current
. - To "enable" an app, user should put
nginx.conf
file inapps/[name]/current
.
But for now, all this cool structure isn't very helpful unless we deploy the app.
I went with the Ruby de-facto deployment tool - Capistrano. There are enough resources on the net on how to "Capify" your application, so I won't go into details. I assume you have just done capify .
and understand what is going in there.
Briefly, what I need to do is following:
- Deploy the app explicitly to a particular domain (staging, production, local server etc).
- On every deployment - backup SQLite database (I know, I'll use something better when I'll have 1 million users).
- Prepare Nginx config file for the server (it depends on the domain we deploy at).
- Pre-Compile assets (SCSS in my case).
So grab the gist (embedded below) with all the details and let me know what can be improved there. The usage is pretty simple:
cap deploy user=dnagir domain=connecty.approache.com
You can deploy the same app multiple times to the same server with different subdomains and they will not conflict:
cap deploy user=dnagir domain=staging.connecty.approache.com
cap deploy user=dnagir domain=demo.connecty.approache.com
The most interesting I think is that the nginx.conf
file is created during deployment using default Ruby templating engine and transfered over to the right location on the server. (But still remember root-ed Nginx restart is still required).
You can look at the complete source in the Connecty project at Github.
Please feel free to tell me what you think about this process.

The SailClear advance web notification service for clearance is now operational. Users previously registered with the old eSeaClear system will find all their details have been carried over to the new system.
It is also possible to complete arrival paperwork at the Customs and Immigration offices (i.e. filling out paper forms in quadruplicate as in the old days). This is a slow process however and using SailClear will enable a much faster clearance.
On arrival the captain should go ashore to report to Customs. The crew must remain on board until clearance is completed. Customs clearance from last port is required and a local declaration form must be completed in quadruplicate (including animals, duty-free goods, firearms on board).
If staying less than three days, one can clear in and out on arrival. After clearing out, yachts have 72 hours to depart Saint Lucia, or 24 hours if local or charter boats.
Yachts must clear out with Customs and Immigration. A new crew list must be submitted if there have been any crew changes.
If a boat is leaving with the same crew, it may do so without clearing out provided its stop is less than 72 hours, but this must be made clear when clearing in. Any boat must leave within 24 hours of having cleared out.
Duty-free fuel may be purchased after clearing out. This is best done at Rodney Bay Marina where one can go directly to the fuel dock after clearing Customs.
Warning: Daytime burglaries have occurred in Vieux Fort while skippers travel to the airport to deal with Immigration. It is therefore recommended not to check-in here if you have to leave the boat unattended.

Borker Protocol
Borker Protocol is an application layer protocol for Bitcoin, Dogecoin and similar UTXO-based, transparent blockchains. It relies on the openess, security, and immutability of the underlying networks and defines a method of publishing and consuming unstoppable content.
Borker
Borker is a Twitter-like microblogging platform and implementation of the Borker Protocol on Dogecoin.
Borker is open, decentralized, borderless, permissionless, pseudonymous, immutable, and censorship-resistant.
Check out the Docs
Open
Borker is open to everyone to build upon and use. There are no gatekeepers and no way to prevent someone from participating.
Immutable
Borker is exactly as immutable as its underlying blockchains. By design, users can filter, edit, and delete borks from the Borker Layer of the Network. But the blockchain never forgets, so be careful what you say.
Censorship Resistant
Borker is exactly as censorship resistant as its underlying blockchains. Publishing and consuming content on the Borker Network is just sending and receiving transactions on Bitcoin or Dogecoin.

Privacy & Security Label
Smart home devices range from smart thermostats and speakers to voice-enabled assistants such as the Amazon Echo and Google Home. Unfortunately, the majority of these devices don't have privacy and security by design.
Problem: Smart home devices often have poor security, yet users don't look into their device's vulnerabilties.
Goal: Bring transparency, privacy, and security to the smart home device experience.
Solution: An accessible privacy & security label (with a linked webpage) for smart home device packaging.
INTERVIEWING STAKEHOLDERS
There exists a lack of urgency for strong security & privacy measures from users and device makers.
Our interviews with stakeholders illustrated a lack of urgency for strong security and privacy measures from users, who often undervalue their data. This lack of urgency also exists in device makers, as they are not being held accountable for their poor security standards.
Affinity diagramming to extract common themes from interviews
Smart home device users were instead focused on convenience and accessibility. In order to get users to care about cybersecurity, we reframed our project to solve the following question:
How might we make security and privacy accessible to smart home device consumers?
BRAINSTORMING SOLUTIONS
After exploring 3 solutions, we chose to pursue the privacy & security label for its accessibility.
Some of the solutions that we brainstormed as a group
After discussing these ideas, we felt that the redesign option could make the device less convenient and usable as we replace features. Meanwhile, the second option was dependent on financial capabilities, which reduces its accessibility.
We chose to pursue the privacy & security label, as it provides the most accessibility to consumers, while also making security more essential for the device makers.
PROTOTYPING AND TESTING
Based on user testing insights, I iterated on our label design and added a linked webpage.
To make the label's content relevant, I researched aspects of privacy and security that should concern users.
I created the initial prototypes after making the following design choices:
User Testing
We each showed our prototypes to smart home device users. I incorporated their feedback to make the following design changes:
DESIGNING THE FINAL PROTOTYPE
I created both the high-fidelity sticker design and the mid-fidelity webpage wireframe on Figma.
I kept the webpage wireframe clean and monochromatic to match the label. You can view our Behance page and enjoy our YouTube video showing the label in use!
NEXT STEPS & TAKEAWAYS
I hope to see this kind of label implemented one day - this topic has been making headlines lately!
There are several questions to address in order to bring this label to market. Would this be a sticker or a label printed on packaging?
For implementation, could this be a future US government policy or a third-party initiative?
Success of this label could be measured by how widely adopted the label is, and by observing changes in sales for smart home companies with poor security vs those with stronger security.

Moves or copies a button from one toolbar to another.
Syntax
MOVE.TOOL(from_bar_id, from_bar_position, to_bar_id, to_bar_position, copy, width)
From_bar_id specifies the number or name of a toolbar from which you want to move or copy the button. For detailed information, see the description of bar_id in ADD.TOOL.
From_bar_position specifies the current position of the button within the toolbar. From_bar_position starts with 1 at the left side (if horizontal) or at the top (if vertical).
To_bar_id specifies the number or name of a toolbar to which you want to move or paste the button. For detailed information, see the description of bar_id in ADD.TOOL. To_bar_id is optional if you are moving a button within the same toolbar.
To_bar_position specifies where you want to move or paste the button within the toolbar. To_bar_position starts with 1 at the left side (if horizontal) or at the top (if vertical). To_bar_position is optional if you are only adjusting the width of a drop-down list.
Copy is a logical value specifying whether to copy the button. If copy is TRUE, the button is copied; if FALSE or omitted, the button is moved.
Width is the width, measured in points, of a drop-down list. If the button you are moving is not a drop-down list, width is ignored.

lang.name, lang.desc for lang in self.languages
Unnofficial meme from the Unofficial Planet Python, programming languages you know or have known:
- BASIC (ZX Spectrum, BBC and GFA) Thanks Mum and Dad for buying the old Speccy for me and my brother, and thanks also to WHSmiths for replacing about twenty of them free of charge, bricked by wobbling peripherals. Was slow, slow, slow. Be thankful those pixels were so big. The foray into BBC BASIC came for a single, albeit paying, project at the school where my Dad was headmaster. I also wrote a bunch of GFA BASIC on the Atari ST, which was relatively cool, as these things go. Did away with line numbers, had parameters passable by value or reference, and compiled to produce reasonably fast stand-alone executables. Lacking a compelling way to aggregate values into structures though.
- Z80 assembler, self taught on the ZX Spectrum. Wrestling with that darn screen's convoluted memory layout.
- 68000 assembler, self taught on the Atari ST. Finally fast enough to do wonderful things to the screen, which had a reasonably sane memory representation. Wished I was doing it on an Amiga instead though.
- C, learned on-the-job at a student apprenticeship at Marconi R&D during my university holidays. Special mention deserved for Kernighan and Ritchie The C Programming Language, as beautifully definitive and concise description of the language - just about every computer book employs a detracting surplus of verbiage in comparison.
- Modula-2, as part of the aforementioned apprenticeship. My first OO, I guess. Full of great ideas that I didn't fully appreciate at the time, having never worked on large enough projects to require them (or indeed, any project that wasn't a personal bedroom project.)
- Pascal, for a one-term 3D graphics project at university.
- C++, on the PC, self-taught using a mixture of pirated and cut-price academic Visual Studio licenses. Anyhow, this then lead to years and years of professional C++ development, mostly on various UNIX boxes, mostly in the GIS industry. So exhilarating when it worked, with the intricate, interlocking mechanisms whirling their fiendishly efficient blades through tasks like a light sabre through butter. But writing it, with hindsight, was *so* *much* *work*.  I must have been a masochist.
- BASH shell scripts, still in daily use to this day, mostly tiny bits of script-fu to automate common desktop tasks, or pipe the output from one thing into some other thing, or heck, even to just do some sorting or filtering on part of the file you're editing in Vi. Absolutely indispensable to me, despite the fact that half the time I'm wrestling with the impedance mismatch of running it in Cygwin on Windows. I literally don't understand how developers can get along without using it *everywhere*.

- C#. Lots to like here, we spent a couple of very happy years together.
- Visual Basic 6, and then later some Visual Basic .NET. They made me do it.
- Python, including IronPython (Python as a dot Net language.) Nirvana at last. Apart from BASH, it's the only entry on the list that I still use daily today, and unlike BASH, the usage is gleeful.
- GLSL, for hobbyist graphics and games.
- Scheme to the extent that I worked through SICP, twice.
- Go, for a new service in IBM Cloud.
- PHP, to maintain an old service in IBM Cloud. Two PR's thus far.
I find my lack of LISP and its derivatives disturbing. And last year I recall entertaining fantasies of learning D, to see if I could use it as a more civilised alternative to C-extensions for Python. And just yesterday I was playing with a minimal OpenGL fragment and vertex shaders, longing to be conversant with Cg. Yeah yeah, I'll figure them all out later this week...
Update: First time through I forgot all about SQL, PL-SQL and BASH.

OK, I'm not sure anybody even monitors this forum any longer. Here's my problem:
I'm using vjslib.dll to provide the java support for nFOP, which is a .NET port of the java version of FOP, which processes XML Format Object (FO) files to create PDF files. All of the sample code I find on the Web says nFOP relies on vjslib.dll, but even when I try converting the sample FO files from these sites, I get the same exception.
Anybody have an idea why vjslib.dll DID apparently work with nFOP but now (at least for the version of vjslib.dll that I grabbed from my WinXP distribution) doesn't?
Thanks in advance,

I am not sure if this is an issue with the nFOP implementation or .NET or actually with vjslib.dll. The supported file types for vjslib have not changed in recent versions.
If you have not been able find a solution/work-around to the issue, could you pl share the version of J# redist (and vjslib) that you were and are now using.

Guarav,
The only way I was able to fix this was to change the mapping in the nFOP code to NOT use "ISO8859_1", which is supposed to be a supported java encoding label, but to use "ISO8859-1" instead. This issue, which actually is in VsjLib v2.0.50727.42

Birthday celebration turns deadly as two students die in road mishap at Hyderabad's PVNR expressway
The tragedy took place when a group of nine boys sneaked out of campus at Madhapur for a birthday celebration and were on their way back to college in an SUV.
HYDERABAD: Two students who were undergoing long terms coaching for IIT entrance died and three of their friends sustained injuries in a major road accident near the PVNR expressway at Attapur in the early hours of Friday.
A group of nine boys sneaked out of their campus at Madhapur for a birthday celebration and on their way back to college in an SUV, the tragedy took place, said police. The victims have been identified as Tarun (19) and Uday (19).
ALSO READ: Hyderabad roads see at least four deaths every day, number of fatalities on the rise
Nine boys, all students of the campus run by a reputed group, were out of the campus. Police believe they hired the SUV and drove towards the Hyderabad-Bengaluru national highway.
After celebration by the roadside, they drove towards the airport for a joyride. While returning, they took Aramghar - Mehdipatnam stretch.
ALSO READ: Veterinary doctor found charred to death on Hyderabad outskirts
When the vehicle reached pillar no 221 of the PVNR expressway, the boy who was at the wheel, lost control.
As the vehicle was moving at high speed, it swerved to extreme left and crashed into an electric pole. Due to the speed, the vehicle overturned and skidded on the road belly up for a few metres before coming to a halt.
Tarun and Uday died on the spot, with multiple injuries, while others sustained injuries in the incident.
Rajendranagar Inspector G Suresh said a case of rash driving causing death due to negligence has been registered and the bodies were shifted to Osmania mortuary for postmortem examination. Further investigation is on, he said.


This application allows you to export any of the documents from the Bisque system packaged into a Tar file.
All data will be packed into a Tar file where images will be in their original formats and metadata written in an XML file (Bisque XML format).

Public Attributes | |
| Istream | istream |
| Returns the istream this object is wrapping. More... | |
A class to read sequential binary data directly from an istream.
Its interface is similar to DatagramIterator by design; see also StreamWriter.
| __init__ | ( | const StreamReader | copy | ) |
The copy constructor does not copy ownership of the stream.
| __init__ | ( | Istream | in, |
| bool | owns_stream | ||
| ) |
If owns_stream is true, the stream pointer will be deleted when the StreamReader destructs.
| object extractBytes | ( | int | size | ) |
Extracts the indicated number of bytes in the stream and returns them as a string.
Returns empty string at end-of-file.
| float getBeFloat32 | ( | ) |
Extracts a 32-bit single-precision big-endian floating-point number.
Since this kind of float is not necessarily portable across different architectures, special care is required.
| PNFloat64 getBeFloat64 | ( | ) |
Extracts a 64-bit big-endian floating-point number.
| int16_t getBeInt16 | ( | ) |
Extracts a signed big-endian 16-bit integer.
| int32_t getBeInt32 | ( | ) |
Extracts a signed big-endian 32-bit integer.
| int64_t getBeInt64 | ( | ) |
Extracts a signed big-endian 64-bit integer.
| uint16_t getBeUint16 | ( | ) |
Extracts an unsigned big-endian 16-bit integer.
| uint32_t getBeUint32 | ( | ) |
Extracts an unsigned big-endian 32-bit integer.

| str getFixedString | ( | int | size | ) |
Extracts a fixed-length string.
However, if a zero byte occurs within the string, it marks the end of the string.
| float getFloat32 | ( | ) |
Extracts a 32-bit single-precision floating-point number.
Since this kind of float is not necessarily portable across different architectures, special care is required.
| PNFloat64 getFloat64 | ( | ) |

| int8_t getInt8 | ( | ) |
Extracts a signed 8-bit integer.
| Istream getIstream | ( | ) |
Returns the stream in use.
| str getString | ( | ) |
Extracts a variable-length string.
| str getString32 | ( | ) |
Extracts a variable-length string with a 32-bit length field.

| object readline | ( | ) |
Assumes the stream represents a text file, and extracts one line up to and including the trailing newline character.
Returns empty string when the end of file is reached.
The interface here is intentionally designed to be similar to that for Python's File.readline() function.

Raymond Blanc offers two alternative baked melting cheeses – one spiked with chilli, garlic and rosemary and the other topped with a secret ingredient… Lush with homemade flatbread.
For the dough, mix all the ingredients for the dough in a large bowl until evenly mixed. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for about five minutes, or until smooth.
Place the dough back in the bowl, cover with cling film and leave to rest for 30 minutes at room temperature until doubled in size.
Tip the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and roll to form into an even cylinder 30cm/12in long. Cut into eight equal parts and form each into flat, 3-5mm thick rounds. Place onto a lightly floured peel or an upturned baking tray.
Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7 and place a baking stone into the oven.
To top the breads, lightly brush the top of each flatbread round with the melted butter and scatter a mixture of the onion seeds, ground cumin and sea salt over the surface.
Using the peel or upturned baking tray, transfer the flat breads to the oven and bake directly on the baking stone for 10 minutes.
Remove the bread from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack.
For the baked cheese ‘fondue’, preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
Remove all the packaging from one of the cheeses and place it back in the box. Place the lid under the base for extra support. Score the top of the cheese in a lattice pattern.
Using a spoon, push the crushed garlic, rosemary and chilli flakes into one of the cheeses. Push the truffle slices into the other cheese.
Place onto a baking tray and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes, or until the cheese starts to go wobbly in the middle.
Remove from the oven and allow to rest for five minutes. Serve scooped up with the flatbreads.

This is a performance testing framework for the Ruby Agent.
There are two main goals driving the development of this framework:
More advanced options can be specified by invoking the runner script
directly. See ./test/performance/script/runner -h
for a full
list of options.
All the examples below assume you have switched to the test/performance folder under the repository’s root folder:
$ cd test/performance
$ script/runner -l
Run all tests, report detailed results in a human-readable form
$ script/runner
List all available test suites and names:
$ script/runner -l
Run a specific test (test name matching is via regex):
$ script/runner -n short
To compare results for a specific test between two versions of the code,
use the -B
(for Baseline) and -C
for (for
Compare) switches:
$ script/runner -n short -B
1 tests, 0 failures, 8.199975 s total
Saved 1 results as baseline.
... switch to another branch and run again with -C ...
$ script/runner -n short -C
1 tests, 0 failures, 8.220509 s total

+-----------------------------------------------------+-----------+-----------+-------+---------------+--------------+--------------+
Run all the tests, produce machine readable JSON output (for eventual ingestion into a storage system):
$ script/runner -j | json_reformat
Run a specific test under a profiler (either stackprof or perftools.rb, depending on your Ruby version):
$ script/runner -n short --profile
Run with a set number of iterations, and do object allocation profiling (again to a call-graph dot file):
$ script/runner -n short -a -N 1000
If you want to run performance tests against an older copy of the agent
that doesn’t have the performance test framework embedded within it, you
can do that by specifying the path to the agent you want to test against
by passing the -A
flag to the runner
script, or
by setting the AGENT_PATH
environment variable when using the
rake task.
Performance tests are written in the style of test/unit
:
create a .rb
file under test/performance/suites
,
subclass Performance::TestCase
, and write test methods that
start with test_
. You can also write setup
and
teardown
methods that will be run before/after each test.
Within your test_
method, you must call
measure
and pass it a block containing the code that you’d
like to actually measure the timing of. This allows you to do
test-specific setup that doesn’t get counted towards your test timing.
The block that you pass to measure
will automatically be run
in a loop for a fixed amount of time by the performance runner harness (5s
by default), and the number of iterations performed will be recorded so
that measurements can be normalized to per-iteration values.
You can look at the existing tests for examples.
Initial testing suggested that certain kinds of tests would have a large impact on tests run later on in the same process (e.g. tests that create lots of long-lived objects will slow down all future GC runs for as long as those objects remain live).
In order to address this problem, the test runner will attempt to isolate
each test to its own process by re-spawning itself for each test
invocation. This is done using IO.popen
rather than
Process.fork
in order to maintain compatibility with JRuby.
Additionally, when operating in this mode, the
newrelic_rpm
gem will not be loaded until after the
fork call. This means that your
test cases must be loadable (though not necessarily runnable) without
the newrelic_rpm
gem available.
Not all command-line options to the runner work with this test isolation
yet. You can disable it by passing the -I
or
--inline
flag to the runner.
The GC stats that are collected with each test run, and the perftools.rb profiling are examples of Instrumentors which can be wrapped around each test run.
The basic idea is that each instrumentor gets callbacks before and after each test, and add information to the test results, or attach artifacts (a fancy name for file paths, currently) to the result.
Instrumentors inherit from
Performance::Instrumentation::Instrumentor
, and may constrain
themselves to running only on certain platforms (see
instrumentor.rb
for a list) by calling the
platforms
method in their class definitions. They may also
signal that they should be used by default by calling
on_by_default
. They should implement the before
,
after
and results
methods as follows:
The before
method is called before each test is run. The test
class and test name are passed as arguments.
The after
method is called after each test is run. The test
class, and test name are passed as arguments. Artifacts may be attached to
the result here by appending to the @artifacts
array. You may
obtain paths to store artifacts at by calling
Performance::Instrumentation::Instrumentor#artifact_path
(see
perf_tools.rb for an example).
The results
method must return a Hash of key-value pairs to
be attached to the Result
object produced by running each
test.
If your instrumentation layer needs to do one-time setup (requiring a gem,
for example), implement the setup
class method to do this
setup.


Blacksmith of Mammon
Do you know about the Foundation Items? Even we blacksmiths see them only infrequently.
These uncommon items are brought into being by a power than goes beyond mere chance. We Dwarves say that it is the blessing of Maphr.
That perfect craftsmanship is beyond the Human race's capacity.It is not, however, beyond mine.
Bring me Mammon's Varnish Enhancer, which is sold by the Merchant of Mammon.
Then I will use techniques known only to me to transform the item into something accessible to mortals.
Be sure to select a helmet among the rare items that provides you with a useful power.
Don't worry if you make the wrong choice, though. You will have another chance to make a selection.
