Teens go on tard hunt
Austin American-Statesman | Submitted by: Travis Scobie
"With their video camera rolling, five teenagers beat, kicked and laughed at a special education student as he waited at a bus stop, police said. Then, they said, the attackers "laughed hysterically" as they sped away. The planning and carrying out of the Dec. 19 assault, all captured on a 30-minute videotape, led to the arrest of five Anderson High School students this week. Police said the attackers, two of whom are juveniles, taped themselves searching the school's campus for a victim and later going to a nearby Capital Metro bus stop, where they found the 16-year-old student."

Better than a bulletproof vest
Guardian | Submitted by: Dirty Sammy
"We had previously seized this building, so we were concerned that explosives would be waiting for us when we came back. Acting according to customary practice in such cases, we took a Palestinian who lived nearby and had him comb the site. He opened all the doors and cabinets, and didn't find anything... We shook his hand and said thanks." God bless the Israeli Army.

Barred for Life
Miami New Times | Submitted by: LucrezaBorgia
"Thousands of Florida's felons who've served their sentences and probation must follow the same arduous trail if they wish to possess basic civil rights in Florida once again. Few will succeed. Perennial legislation and two ongoing lawsuits have as yet been unsuccessful in busting the bureaucracy and mindset that keep the restoration process so complex. Gov. Jeb Bush, who with a word could clear the path, has said he does not intend to do so. After layoffs during the summer of 2001, only one person was working on all those files, an employee who was routinely pulled off to work warrants."

Just say NO to Cambodian beer girls
San Francisco Chronicle | Submitted by: kade
But after only a week, Yun Nit discovered the job's underside: While selling only one bottle of expensive French wine, for which she earned $2, she had been groped, fondled and propositioned for sex three times. One man offered $50, about a month's salary for a Cambodian factory worker... Yun Nit has vowed to refuse the advances. "I don't want to bring a bad name to my province." As if being a beer girl was not doing that already.

Kim Jong Il collects Daffy Duck, country starves
MSNBC | Submitted by: Boat6float
A long article about the atrocities in Kim Jong Il's regime, including interesting aerial photos of their concentration camps. Somewhere in the middle of the article, "as many as 2 million people have died of starvation while Kim has amassed the world’s largest collection of Daffy Duck cartoons." Small price to pay.

Free sex for all applicants
Mainichi Daily News | Submitted by: LucrezaBorgia
"As in many other countries, it's common for companies in Japan to offer prizes during special promotional campaigns. It's just that things get a little weird when you've got companies like Bakky Visual Planning, an adult video company known for its simulated rape movies whose current sales drive provides the chance to have an all-the-way romp with a porn actress. "To be honest, the pay is lousy but I really wanted to have a try at getting into the Guinness Book of Records," her statement says. "My privates are weak and I feel pain easily. But I've steeled myself to playing around with any number of men on the day."

Singapore condemns act of terror at Medan police headquarters: MFA
SINGAPORE: Singapore said on Thursday (Nov 14) it condemns the "act of terror" at the police headquarters in Medan, where at least four officers and two civilians were wounded after a suicide bomber blew himself up on Wednesday morning.
The blast happened around 8.45am at the police compound in Medan on Sumatra island during morning roll call.
No Singaporeans were reported to have been affected by the incident, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a press statement on Thursday.
"We wish those who were injured a speedy and full recovery," it added.
At least six people were wounded in the blast, but their injuries were not severe, national police spokesman Dedi Prasetyo said on Wednesday.
The explosion also damaged three police vehicles and one private vehicle.
Indonesian authorities have identified the attacker as a 24-year-old student, describing him as a "lone wolf".
The man wore an explosive device on his body, with authorities recovering nails, an on-off switch button, cables and body parts at the scene of the blast, Prasetyo said.
The motive for the attack was not immediately known, but police stations have been frequent targets for radicals in the world's biggest Muslim-majority nation.

The audiences for -- i.e., users of -- these tools are different sorts of people. TrEx is intended to be used by physicians, whereas Quark is intended to be used by someone that we call a "Clinical Analyst", who may or may not be a physician. There is also a third UI that sits between these, and requires a little of each skill. You'll be pretending to be different sorts of users -- to wear different hats -- as we progress through the tour. I'll tell you when to change hats!
First a few words of warning to give you the right perspective:
First: The interfaces that you will see on this tour are pretty rough, and look a little better on a tablet than on a laptop or desktop browser. Don't focus on how things look; Focus instead on the functionality. Also, although the databases and examples used in this tour are real (they generally come from peer-reviewed, published papers), they are often out-of-date, so you shouldn't take anything that you see here as valid medical advice.
Second: This tour covers several applications which together comprise the Cancer Commons Knowledge Platform. These applications are technically separate, but there are pathways along which they interact to form specific workflows. Although this tour follows a particular such workflow. There are many alternative workflows that you can explore at your leisure.
Okay, so with those caveats in mind, let's begin:
The principal function of TrEx, the Treatment Explorer, is to rank possible therapies based upon test results and peer-reviewed evidence. TrEx is a direct implementation of the algorithm described in this paper:
and the TrEx prototype here uses the database published in that paper, with some minor simplifications. Since that paper was published in 2010, this database is extremely out of date. Nevertheless, you'll get the idea.
Let's begin by putting on our oncologist (physician) hat, and opening the TrEx prototype application, here:
TrEx -- The Treatment Explorer
You'll see some instructions, and then a table of tests, with "Positive", "Negative", and "Untested" buttons to the right of each. Let's focus on the first test in the list: "BRAF mut V600E". To begin with, click "Positive" to the immediate right of that test, and then click the button just above the table, labeled "Rank Drugs".
You should get a new table above the test table, containing two treatment options: PLX4032 (now called Vemurafenib), and the combination treatment melphalan + actinomycin-d. Now Find the BRAF V600E test again (which should be marked "positive", as you had left it), and change the setting to "negative". Again rank the treatments and notice that the order of the two treatments is reversed, which makes sense.
Play around with this a bit by setting some of the test results in random ways and notice how the treatment rankings change. The ranking algorithm is described in detail in the Mocellin et al, 2010 paper, linked above.
Now notice that all of the tests and treatments are clickable links. Return to the PLX4032 treatment (in the top, treatment table), and click that link. You should see three rows of evidence appear in a new browser tab. These are the three sources of evidence that participate in the ranking of this treatment.
Return to the main TrEx page and find the BRAF V600E mutation test line. Click on the "BRAF mut V600E" link. This should again bring up an evidence table (in a new tab), this time with many rows. These are the rows of evidence related to this clinical observation (that is, the observation of a BRAF V600E mutation). Notice that many possible drugs besides PLX4032 appear in this table? Why are only two of them ranked when this aberration is observed? The reason is that only the PLX4032 and melphalan + actinomycin-d entries have (a) clinical evidence (i.e., most of the evidence is in vitro, which is not counted as strong enough to be included in this implementation of TrEx), or (b) the relationship was experimentally null (i.e., it reads: "no relationship with" in the "relation to" column). To see this, look for "Sorafenib" in the "Drug" column. Notice that every row that relates to Sorafenib is either non-clinical-level data (in the "model" column), or, where there is clinical evidence, it says "no relationship with" in the "relation to" column.
Notice that the "source" and "notes" column entries in this evidence table are also clickable. Try to click any of them and you'll see that they link through (in most cases) to the PubMed entry for the paper from which the evidence was obtained. This enables you to examine the source of the evidence if you like.
We call each of the rows of evidence that we saw again, in TrEx, a "Treatment Rationale" (TR). Mocellin et al. manually created a table of TRs for melanoma, which they called the "Targeted Therapy Database". But they left open the problem of how to ensure that the database of TRs was continually updated. This is the role of the second application on this tour: Quark.
In this paper:
The authors describe an extension to TrEx (previously referred to as the "Targeted Therapy Advisor") that would collect individual, case-based information from patients and/or their physicians, and which augmented the TrEx database with this data. Quark is a prototype implementation of this envisioned extension. We conceive Quark as the biomedical analog of a court-reporter's steno-type machine. A specially-trained professional, that we call a "Clinical Analyst", would use Quark to capture the important parts of the discussion regarding treatment choices, in a setting such as a tumor board. The most important parts of this discussion are, of course, the Treatment Rationales (TRs). TRs captured in this manner are expressed by the Clinical Analyst in Controlled Biomedical English (CBE), a version of a Controlled Natural Language (CNL). The TRs, thus captured in CBE/CNL are then vetted (a sort of lightweight peer reviewe). Those TRs that pass vetting are immediately added to the TrEx database, and will have immediate impact on the drug ranking results as computed by TrEx.
Before going to Quark and demonstrating this process, return for a moment the main TrEx window, scroll all the way to the bottom, and click the button labeled "Reset DB". This will remove left-over TRs from your, or others', previous experiments. (Yes, this will mess up anyone else who happens to be using these prototype application at the same time as you, but we aren't too worried about this. In real usage, this button would not exist, and you would also be logging into the system as a registered user, with permission controls, and so on. For the moment, we don't expect enough users to be trying this at the same time for them to run into one another. And if they do ... oh well.... :-)
Now, finally, before leaving TrEx (don't worry; we'll be back soon!), scroll up to the place where "EGFR" tests would appear if there were any (the table is alphabetical), and notice that there are no EGFR tests. (The TTD used here was created for melanoma, and in 2010 there was no clinical evidence relating EGFR to melanoma.)
Okay, now scroll to the top of the test table, and click the link labeled: "[Add insights via Quark]" (in the navigation bar at either the top or bottom of the page), and while it's changing pages, quickly switch into your Clinical Analyst hat!
This is the Quark Analyst's Dashboard, prefilled with some example notes from a (made up, of course!) tumor board meeting. I suggest entering something recognizable into at least one of the fields at the top of the page. This will enable you to identify that the transcript is yours if you were to see it again. (If you use the email field, don't put your real email address in because, as mentioned before, other users who might be testing the prototype are sharing the same database!)
Now let's examine the (made up, of course!) tumor board transcript. First, notice the header labeled "[Cheatsheet]". If you hover over this link (at either the top or bottom of the transcript) a large "tool tip" will appear, reminding you -- now playing the role of Clinical Analyst for this tumor board -- about the way that Quark expects to see certain special entries. The only rule that we care about for the moment is where "insights" are prefixed by asterisks (*). (A TR is a kind of insight. There are other kinds of insights, but we'll use these terms interchangably here.) Note that there are several lines in the transcript prefixed with stars. These are TRs represented in the fairly general, yet controlled, language that we called, above CBE or CNL: "Controlled Biomedical English" or, more generally, "Controlled Natural Language". (Hereafter we'll just called it CBE). Notice that there are various ways to state treatment rationales in CBE.
Let's prereview what's going to happen next, before actually trying it.
We're going to push some of the TRs in this (made up, of course!) tumor board transcript into TrEx, and see that they will have an impact on the way that TrEx ranks treatments. The TRs that we're pushing through in this way are written in CBE. When we tell Quark that we're done with this transcript, the Quark system will translate TRs (indicated by stars in the first column) into the internal representation used by TrEx. It then submits these to the lightweight peer review process called "vetting". In order for the TRs to actually get added to the TrEx database, two reviewers have to agree with them. Once TRs are vetted and added to the TrEx database, they participate in the TrEx drug ranking process.
Let's see this in action!
Notice the line in the transcript that says:
*In a randomized controlled trial with 200 patients with stage 2 metastatic melanoma (Shrager & Tenenbaum, 2014), EGFR expression leads to resistance to cisplatin.
Don't change anything in the transcript. Just scroll to the bottom and click the red button labeled "Save and Close". When you click this you will be prompted to make sure that you want to terminate the transcript session. Click "Yes" (or "Ok").
When you do the above, you will end be put into the Evidence Vetting tool. As mentioned above, you now need to be wearing both your Clinical Analyst and your Oncologist (physician) hats.
There are lots of buttons and things to click on in the vetting tool. Find the entry containing the TR above:
In a randomized controlled trial with 200 patients with stage 2 metastatic melanoma (Shrager & Tenenbaum, 2014), EGFR expression leads to resistance to cisplatin.
Our job now, as a peer reviewer, is to assess this assertion along the dimensions indicated by the four 3-way scales below the assertion: Agreement, Generality, Evidence, and Importance. None of these do anything that matters on this tour except the leftmost scale: Agreement.
Suppose that we actually don't know whether we agree with this assertion or not because we don't know enough about it, or the context in which it was collected. There are links in the vetting tool that can help us understand the assertion better.
Start by clicking on the assertion itself. This will bring up a tab containing a read-only display of the quark transcript that we had just submitted. (If you filled in some of the fields, such as the email address, you should be able to tell that this is the one you actually saved.) This can be useful in understanding the context in which this assertion was made.
Now go back to the vetting page, and notice that there is a button labeled "Search on Google Scholar". When you click it the whole text of the TR is entered into google scholar and searched.
These tools should help you figure out whether you believe the assertion or not. Let's say that we decide that we do believe the assertion. We'll select "Agree", and then scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Submit". This will take us back to TrEx!
Unfortunately, it's a bit premature to celebrate, because you actually need TWO reviewers to agree with the assertion in order to get it accepted and added to the TrEx database. We're just going to fake it by clicking the link on the TrEx paged labeled "[Vet knowledge]" (in the navigation bar).
This will bring you back to the vetting page; click "agree" again on our favorite TR, and then "Submit" again. This time we'll be in TrEx with that TR (hopefully) added to the database! (If you were to click on "[Vet knowledge]" again, you'd find that the TR we're interested in no longer appears in the vetting interface; It's already been accepted, and requires no more vetting!)
Okay, so now we should be in a new world where TrEx knows about EGFR expression and its relationship to cisplatin. Let's check that out by finding the row in the test table that should now be there, but recall that it wasn't before, called "EGFR expression". If you click on the test, it will bring up the usual evidence table. However, now you'll see evidences rows that came from the vetted TRs that were translated from the BCE in the (made up, obviously!) tumor board transcript back in Quark! Recall that when the evidence came from papers, you could click through to the publication entry in PubMed. With evidence that came through Quark, these functions work similarly to the Vetting tool: You can click through to either the Quark transcript context, or to a Google Scholar Search. Try it!
Finally, let's get back to TrEx and try out our new knowledge! Let's click "Positive" next to our new "EGFR expression" test, and then Rank Drugs. If all went well, you should get Cisplatin as a recommended treatment! Voila!
One more cool little thing to visit before the tour ends: All the insights in the TrEx database, including ones that you just added (and those that will eventually be added by someone who actually knows what they're talking about! ;-) are published in an archival "nanojournal" that we call "Insights in Oncology". (This is a working title; I'm pretty sure that's already taken!)
From the TrEx mail window, find the link called "[Visit the 'Insights in Oncology' nanojournal]" (in the navigation bar). This will take you to the nanojournal, which is really just a long list of all the treatment rationales in the system. There isn't much you can do here at the moment, other than scan forward and backward in this list, and click through to the papers on PubMed or the case contexts, just as we did before when we were looking at TrEx records from the TrEx UI. Eventually we'll have lots more functionality in the journal, such as search and commenting.
(There's one more little feature, that will only be interesting to geeks: Notice that each record (row) has a leftmost ID column. If you click on the ID in a row you'll be treated to the very hard to read internal representation of that record. You may wonder why you would be interested in this. Well, you might not be interested (or even wonder why you would be interested...), but this sort of "API" (google it!) is extremely useful to programmers who want to write applications that uses the TrEx database!)
And that's the end of our tour! Thanks for your attention. (Tips, as well as questions or comments, can be sent to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>:-)

Serves 4
Orange, herbs and pink peppercorns add zing to simply fried John Dory fillets.
Equipment and preparation: for this recipe you will need a mandoline.
For the zucchini shoestring fries, add the oil to a deep-fat fryer and heat to 190C (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not over-fill the pan or leave unattended).
Meanwhile, slice the courgettes lengthways using a mandoline to create 4mm thick strips.
Carefully dredge the courgette strings in the milk and shake around in the seasoned flour to lightly coat.
Lower the cougette fries into the deep-fat fryer and cook for 3 minutes or until light golden-brown. Remove using a slotted spoon and leave to drain on kitchen paper. Sprinkle with fine salt and keep warm until ready to serve.
Meanwhile for the John Dory, drizzle a generous glug of olive oil into a large shallow pan with a lid. Carefully add the John Dory fillets skin-side down with the garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Scatter the chopped herbs over the fish and place the pan over a medium heat. When the pan starts to sizzle, add the stock, lemon juice and orange juice and cover with a lid. After no more than 4 minutes, remove the fillets and place on warm plates.
Turn the heat up to high, add the peppercorns and boil the juices until the volume of liquid starts to reduce (about 2 minutes). Take off the heat and pour the reduced juices onto the John Dory fillets. Garnish each fillet with a slice of orange, if using, and serve with the courgette fries alongside.
To serve, put the John Dory onto a serving plate and the fries on the side.

Developing a “TODO” extension¶
The objective of this tutorial is to create a more comprehensive extension than
that created in Developing a “Hello world” extension. Whereas that guide just covered writing a
custom directive, this guide adds multiple directives, along with custom
nodes, additional config values and custom event handlers. To this end, we will
cover a todo
extension that adds capabilities to include todo entries in the
documentation, and to collect these in a central place. This is similar the
sphinxext.todo
extension distributed with Sphinx.
Overview¶
Note
To understand the design of this extension, refer to Important objects and Build Phases.
We want the extension to add the following to Sphinx:
A
todo
directive, containing some content that is marked with “TODO” and only shown in the output if a new config value is set. Todo entries should not be in the output by default.A
todolist
directive that creates a list of all todo entries throughout the documentation.
For that, we will need to add the following elements to Sphinx:
New directives, called
todo
andtodolist
.New document tree nodes to represent these directives, conventionally also called
todo
andtodolist
. We wouldn’t need new nodes if the new directives only produced some content representable by existing nodes.A new config value
todo_include_todos
(config value names should start with the extension name, in order to stay unique) that controls whether todo entries make it into the output.New event handlers: one for the :event:`doctree-resolved` event, to replace the todo and todolist nodes, one for :event:`env-merge-info` to merge intermediate results from parallel builds, and one for :event:`env-purge-doc` (the reason for that will be covered later).
Prerequisites¶
As with Developing a “Hello world” extension, we will not be distributing this plugin via PyPI so once again we need a Sphinx project to call this from. You can use an existing project or create a new one using sphinx-quickstart.
We assume you are using separate source (source
) and build
(build
) folders. Your extension file could be in any folder of your
project. In our case, let’s do the following:
Create an
_ext
folder insource
Create a new Python file in the
_ext
folder calledtodo.py
Here is an example of the folder structure you might obtain:
└── source
├── _ext
│ └── todo.py
├── _static
├── conf.py
├── somefolder
├── index.rst
├── somefile.rst
└── someotherfile.rst
Writing the extension¶
Open todo.py
and paste the following code in it, all of which we will
explain in detail shortly:

This is far more extensive extension than the one detailed in Developing a “Hello world” extension, however, we will will look at each piece step-by-step to explain what’s happening.
The node classes
Let’s start with the node classes:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 | class todo(nodes.Admonition, nodes.Element):
pass
class todolist(nodes.General, nodes.Element):
pass
def visit_todo_node(self, node):
self.visit_admonition(node)
def depart_todo_node(self, node):
self.depart_admonition(node)
|
Node classes usually don’t have to do anything except inherit from the standard
docutils classes defined in docutils.nodes
. todo
inherits from
Admonition
because it should be handled like a note or warning, todolist
is just a “general” node.
Note
Many extensions will not have to create their own node classes and work fine with the nodes already provided by docutils and Sphinx.
Attention
It is important to know that while you can extend Sphinx without
leaving your conf.py
, if you declare an inherited node right
there, you’ll hit an unobvious PickleError
. So if
something goes wrong, please make sure that you put inherited nodes
into a separate Python module.
For more details, see:
The directive classes
A directive class is a class deriving usually from
docutils.parsers.rst.Directive
. The directive interface is also
covered in detail in the docutils documentation; the important thing is that
the class should have attributes that configure the allowed markup, and a
run
method that returns a list of nodes.
Looking first at the TodolistDirective
directive:
1 2 3 4 | class TodolistDirective(Directive):
def run(self):
return [todolist('')]
|
It’s very simple, creating and returning an instance of our todolist
node
class. The TodolistDirective
directive itself has neither content nor
arguments that need to be handled. That brings us to the TodoDirective
directive:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 | class TodoDirective(SphinxDirective):
# this enables content in the directive
has_content = True
def run(self):
targetid = 'todo-%d' % self.env.new_serialno('todo')
targetnode = nodes.target('', '', ids=[targetid])
todo_node = todo('\n'.join(self.content))
todo_node += nodes.title(_('Todo'), _('Todo'))
self.state.nested_parse(self.content, self.content_offset, todo_node)
if not hasattr(self.env, 'todo_all_todos'):
self.env.todo_all_todos = []
self.env.todo_all_todos.append({
'docname': self.env.docname,
'lineno': self.lineno,
'todo': todo_node.deepcopy(),
'target': targetnode,
})
return [targetnode, todo_node]
|
Several important things are covered here. First, as you can see, we’re now
subclassing the SphinxDirective
helper class
instead of the usual Directive
class. This
gives us access to the build environment instance
using the self.env
property. Without this, we’d have to use the rather
convoluted self.state.document.settings.env
. Then, to act as a link target
(from TodolistDirective
), the TodoDirective
directive needs to return a
target node in addition to the todo
node. The target ID (in HTML, this will
be the anchor name) is generated by using env.new_serialno
which returns a
new unique integer on each call and therefore leads to unique target names. The
target node is instantiated without any text (the first two arguments).
On creating admonition node, the content body of the directive are parsed using
self.state.nested_parse
. The first argument gives the content body, and
the second one gives content offset. The third argument gives the parent node
of parsed result, in our case the todo
node. Following this, the todo
node is added to the environment. This is needed to be able to create a list of
all todo entries throughout the documentation, in the place where the author
puts a todolist
directive. For this case, the environment attribute
todo_all_todos
is used (again, the name should be unique, so it is prefixed
by the extension name). It does not exist when a new environment is created, so
the directive must check and create it if necessary. Various information about
the todo entry’s location are stored along with a copy of the node.
In the last line, the nodes that should be put into the doctree are returned: the target node and the admonition node.
The node structure that the directive returns looks like this:
+--------------------+
| target node |
+--------------------+
+--------------------+
| todo node |
+--------------------+
\__+--------------------+
| admonition title |
+--------------------+
| paragraph |
+--------------------+
| ... |
+--------------------+
The event handlers
Event handlers are one of Sphinx’s most powerful features, providing a way to do hook into any part of the documentation process. There are many events provided by Sphinx itself, as detailed in the API guide, and we’re going to use a subset of them here.
Let’s look at the event handlers used in the above example. First, the one for the :event:`env-purge-doc` event:
1 2 3 4 5 6 | def purge_todos(app, env, docname):
if not hasattr(env, 'todo_all_todos'):
return
env.todo_all_todos = [todo for todo in env.todo_all_todos
if todo['docname'] != docname]
|
Since we store information from source files in the environment, which is
persistent, it may become out of date when the source file changes. Therefore,
before each source file is read, the environment’s records of it are cleared,
and the :event:`env-purge-doc` event gives extensions a chance to do the same.
Here we clear out all todos whose docname matches the given one from the
todo_all_todos
list. If there are todos left in the document, they will be
added again during parsing.
The next handler, for the :event:`env-merge-info` event, is used
during parallel builds. As during parallel builds all threads have
their own env
, there’s multiple todo_all_todos
lists that need
to be merged:
1 2 3 4 5 | def merge_todos(app, env, docnames, other):
if not hasattr(env, 'todo_all_todos'):
env.todo_all_todos = []
if hasattr(other, 'todo_all_todos'):
env.todo_all_todos.extend(other.todo_all_todos)
|
The other handler belongs to the :event:`doctree-resolved` event:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 | def process_todo_nodes(app, doctree, fromdocname):
if not app.config.todo_include_todos:
for node in doctree.traverse(todo):
node.parent.remove(node)
# Replace all todolist nodes with a list of the collected todos.
# Augment each todo with a backlink to the original location.
env = app.builder.env
if not hasattr(env, 'todo_all_todos'):
env.todo_all_todos = []
for node in doctree.traverse(todolist):
if not app.config.todo_include_todos:
node.replace_self([])
continue
content = []
for todo_info in env.todo_all_todos:
para = nodes.paragraph()
filename = env.doc2path(todo_info['docname'], base=None)
description = (
_('(The original entry is located in %s, line %d and can be found ') %
(filename, todo_info['lineno']))
para += nodes.Text(description, description)
# Create a reference
newnode = nodes.reference('', '')
innernode = nodes.emphasis(_('here'), _('here'))
newnode['refdocname'] = todo_info['docname']
newnode['refuri'] = app.builder.get_relative_uri(
fromdocname, todo_info['docname'])
newnode['refuri'] += '#' + todo_info['target']['refid']
newnode.append(innernode)
para += newnode
para += nodes.Text('.)', '.)')
# Insert into the todolist
content.append(todo_info['todo'])
content.append(para)
node.replace_self(content)
|
The :event:`doctree-resolved` event is emitted at the end of phase 3
(resolving) and allows custom resolving to be done. The handler
we have written for this event is a bit more involved. If the
todo_include_todos
config value (which we’ll describe shortly) is false,
all todo
and todolist
nodes are removed from the documents. If not,
todo
nodes just stay where and how they are. todolist
nodes are
replaced by a list of todo entries, complete with backlinks to the location
where they come from. The list items are composed of the nodes from the
todo
entry and docutils nodes created on the fly: a paragraph for each
entry, containing text that gives the location, and a link (reference node
containing an italic node) with the backreference. The reference URI is built
by sphinx.builders.Builder.get_relative_uri()
which creates a suitable
URI depending on the used builder, and appending the todo node’s (the target’s)
ID as the anchor name.
The setup
function
As noted previously, the setup
function is a requirement
and is used to plug directives into Sphinx. However, we also use it to hook up
the other parts of our extension. Let’s look at our setup
function:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 | def setup(app):
app.add_config_value('todo_include_todos', False, 'html')
app.add_node(todolist)
app.add_node(todo,
html=(visit_todo_node, depart_todo_node),
latex=(visit_todo_node, depart_todo_node),
text=(visit_todo_node, depart_todo_node))
app.add_directive('todo', TodoDirective)
app.add_directive('todolist', TodolistDirective)
app.connect('doctree-resolved', process_todo_nodes)
app.connect('env-purge-doc', purge_todos)
app.connect('env-merge-info', merge_todos)
return {
'version': '0.1',
'parallel_read_safe': True,
'parallel_write_safe': True,
}
|
The calls in this function refer to the classes and functions we added earlier. What the individual calls do is the following:
add_config_value()
lets Sphinx know that it should recognize the new config valuetodo_include_todos
, whose default value should beFalse
(this also tells Sphinx that it is a boolean value).If the third argument was
'html'
, HTML documents would be full rebuild if the config value changed its value. This is needed for config values that influence reading (build phase 1 (reading)).add_node()
adds a new node class to the build system. It also can specify visitor functions for each supported output format. These visitor functions are needed when the new nodes stay until phase 4 (writing). Since thetodolist
node is always replaced in phase 3 (resolving), it doesn’t need any.add_directive()
adds a new directive, given by name and class.Finally,
connect()
adds an event handler to the event whose name is given by the first argument. The event handler function is called with several arguments which are documented with the event.
With this, our extension is complete.
Using the extension¶
As before, we need to enable the extension by declaring it in our
conf.py
file. There are two steps necessary here:
Add the
_ext
directory to the Python path usingsys.path.append
. This should be placed at the top of the file.Update or create the :confval:`extensions` list and add the extension file name to the list
In addition, we may wish to set the todo_include_todos
config value. As
noted above, this defaults to False
but we can set it explicitly.
For example:
import os
import sys
sys.path.append(os.path.abspath("./_ext"))
extensions = ['todo']
todo_include_todos = False
You can now use the extension throughout your project. For example:
Hello, world
============
.. toctree::
somefile.rst
someotherfile.rst
Hello world. Below is the list of TODOs.
.. todolist::
foo
===
Some intro text here...
.. todo:: Fix this
bar
===
Some more text here...
.. todo:: Fix that
Because we have configured todo_include_todos
to False
, we won’t
actually see anything rendered for the todo
and todolist
directives.
However, if we toggle this to true, we will see the output described
previously.

Diego Costa undergoes surgery and will be out for at least three months
The Atletico Madrid striker has been complaining about discomfort for some time and hopes this will solve his problems
by Sport.esAtletico Madrid will be without one of their star players until the end of February. The club released this medical report earlier today: "Diego Costa underwent surgery on his cervical disc herniation in Madrid on Thursday. According to the information provided by the club’s medical services, the operation has gone as planned."
The initial return date is the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Assuming Atletico qualify, they begin at the end of February.
Costa, 31, has scored two goals in 11 LaLiga matches this season. He's failed to register a shot on target in four Champions League contests.

Abstract: Sudderth, Wainwright, and Willsky conjectured that the Bethe approximation corresponding to any ﬁxed point of the belief propagation algorithm over an attractive, pairwise binary graphical model provides a lower bound on the true partition function. In this work, we resolve this conjecture in the afﬁrmative by demonstrating that, for any graphical model with binary variables whose potential functions (not necessarily pairwise) are all log-supermodular, the Bethe partition function always lower bounds the true partition function. The proof of this result follows from a new variant of the “four functions” theorem that may be of independent interest. 1

Born out of engagement with Pasifika communities of the Auckland Southern Region, the community envisioned and have strongly advocated for a Pasifika Centre to be established at Manukau Institute of Technology (MIT) located in Otara, Auckland.
The MIT Pasifika Community Centre is designed to be a significant gathering place for all Pasifika communities in Auckland and a prominent community facility located in the Auckland southern region. A fast growing multicultural city with over 150 diverse cultures, the Centre will provide a functional place for the diverse communities of Auckland to utilise to support the enhancement of the communities’ educational, social, cultural and economic well-being.
Manukau Institute of Technology (MIT) serves its Pasifika communities in a variety of ways. In 2009 the Pasifika Development Office was established and it set in place the MIT Pasifika Community Advisory Board which reflects and represents the communities and provides advice to MIT. Associated with this Board are three MIT Pasifika Community Forums which cluster around the following interests and activities:
○ Churches ○ Agencies ○ Teachers
MIT has planned to accompany the opening of the MIT Pasifika Community Centre and the Gathering Hall with the development of an MIT National Centre of Excellence for Pasifika Languages and Culture and has therefore developed a set of frameworks that will provide for a coherent set of programmes both informal and, over time, formal which will offer qualifications at all levels related to Pasifika languages, cultures and customs, crafts and the performing arts.
Recognising that 35% of the MIT student population come from Pasifikacommunities (and a further 18% from Māori communities), MIT has developed a set of policies that focus on Māori, Pasifika and students under 25, the priority learner groups. A focus for this development is on faculties recognising the educational aspirations of Pasifika students, understanding their needs as learners and working in collaboration with the MIT Support Services to provide the skills, knowledge and work practices that ensure success. The goal is to see that no single Pasifika student fails to meet their goals due to lack of support.
The growth of the Pasifika presence at MIT has not happened by accident. The plans developed in 2008 have led the Institute to the point where it seeks now to take the policies developed and forge new developments and achievements to add to the next chapter of the story of Pasifika at MIT.
The MIT Pasifika Education Strategy has as its central organising principle the view that at MIT Pasifika must succeed at MIT as Pasifika. This is an adaptation of the concept developed by Mason Durie that “Māori must succeed as Māori”. Adapted to become a call for a similar approach to Pasifika students, this approach would require that MIT must pay attention to ensuring that Pasifika students:
○ Have their identities, languages and cultures valued and included In teaching and learning in ways that support them to engage and achieve success;
○ Know their potential and feel supported to set goals and take action to achieve success;
○ Experience teaching and learning that is relevant, engaging, rewarding and positive;
○ Have gained the skills, knowledge and qualifications they need to achieve success in the Pasifika worlds of the Pacific and New Zealand, and in the wider world;
○ Have a place that reflects the culture, values, and languages within MIT

At first we think that one of the crucial problem we are currently experiencing in the philippines is people commiting crime and people who lack knowledge about the emergency hotlines. If people needs an urgent attention regarding fire,crime, health problems and others, if they don't know emergency hotlines there would be a lot of problem.Then the producers came up with the idea what if we create an application that will detect emergency hotlines so that people can access them wherever they are.
Smart Alert application employs the latest innovation in mobile personal emergency response technology. Readily accessible via Apple and Android App Stores. Once registered with our Smart Alarm App, our monitoring station provides a personal panic alarm for those on the move. Our state of the art monitoring station allows custom tailoring of response instructions, to cater for customers with medical conditions, Crime cases or a history of personal security issues. Activating the Smart Alarm button initiates a call through to our 24 hour monitoring centre, where our staff will stay on the line to ascertain the problem, and dispatch emergency services as required.
We may not be the very first to make a SMART ALARM application but we can guarantee that your safety is always a priority for us. With our very unique features and with the help of all the members in our team, we will fill in your satisfaction and give you the best benefits of our very own Smart Alarm App.


MOCAInstance Class Reference

| Conforms to | MOCASerializable |
| Declared in | MOCAInstance.h |
Overview
MOCA instance.
The app instance object is a local representation of an app instance downloaded and installed in a user device. The instance holds a collection of properties. MOCA instances are saved to the MOCA cloud.
Property-value pairs can be set and retrieved. It is recommended to perform as many sets as desired and then just invoke a single save operation to persist them to the MOCA cloud.
Optionally, the app instance can be associated with a User object. A user can be logged in. Thus, whereas there is just one instance per application, different users can be logged in/out, though just one user can be logged at the same time.

MSS(MCUSimpleScheduler)
v.0.2.1
|
MSS Task is based on coroutine concept which allows a function code (in this case the MSS task function code) to suspend at a certain location and then resume at the same spot where it left before. Coroutine enables the possibility to implement a very light weight multi tasking system at the cost of losing the ability to retain the local variables between suspending and re-entering the task code (MSS has only one memory stack shared by the scheduler and all tasks).
This means that when using local variable(s) in its code, a task shall expect that the local variable value to be changed when re-entering the function after suspending it self. Therefore static data type shall be used if the variable value is wished to be retained between suspending and re-entering the task.
Even tough MSS also supports preemptive schedulding (see next section), it doesn't mean that when a lower task is preempted, it will lose the local variable. MSS scheduler preempts the lower priority task by calling a software interrupt which will call the scheduler function again and execute the higher priority task. So basically the local variable context of the preempted task is stored safely on the top of memory stack.
In general a MSS task looks like the following:
As can be seen above, a task needs a static variable with mss_task_ctx_t type (initialized with value MSS_TASK_CTX_STATE_INIT_VAL) to store the information in which code part the function has been suspended last time.
MSS_BEGIN(ctx) shall be the first instruction in the task code, while MSS_FINISH() as the last one. When a task want to give up a CPU, it calls the MSS_RETURN(ctx) which also stores the information of the address where the task is left. The MSS_RETURN() is also encapsulated by some macro functions of MSS modules, please refer to the API documentation for further information.
The implementation of coroutine in MSS is derived from: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/coroutines.html and similar to the implementation of protothreads: http://dunkels.com/adam/pt/
MSS supports two basic scheduling policy depending on the configuration value of MSS_PREEMPTIVE_SCHEDULING in mss_cfg.h:

Hey man, I read that Synergy will be supported the shared Music Archive folder placement/naming (http://docs.blacktree.com/?page=Music+Artwork+Archive). That's really, really, really great!
Is there an ETA on when a Synergy release will be made which uses the format? I know Quicksilver works with Synergy already, but I'm a standards junkie
Cheerio Chris
-
Greg Hurrell
The first app I release that supports the new format (among others) will be Synergy Advance. Once that's done I can look at revising the Synergy code as well.
The reason why Synergy Advance will support it first is architectural. Synergy Advance is designed from the ground up to support this kind of thing. Synergy, on the other hand, was written before the huge crop of iTunes accessory apps sprung into existence, and before even iTunes itself supported cover art... So basically, it's easier for me to implement in Synergy Advance first, and working on my own, I have to take the path of least resistance...

SHROVE TUESDAY AT ST IVES.
FORMERLY it was customary for the boys to tie stones to cords, and with these parade the town, slinging these stones against the doors, shouting aloud,--
"Give me a pancake, now--now--now,
Or I 'II souse in your door with a row--tow--tow."
A genteel correspondent assures me "this is observed now in the lower parts of the town only."


macro
(directive in module tri
)
Used to provide HTML manipulation and insertion. Used for tempolates and to disable sections of code.
The raw HTML passes through a modification cycle where the alter
and other standard $word$ strings are
replaced with new values just before the final insertion.
Note that the new HTML can itself contain macro
directives. That is, the macro
directive is recursive.
The value <img-defer ...>
are replaced by <img ...>
. This defers the loading
of the images until the template is actually used. It also defers loading until the template is positioned under the correct
base URL. Refer to Template Load Process
The alter
param consists of a repeated group of pairs.
Refer to tri.applyAlters for the format.
<macro fetch='template-name.html' alter='fromstr/tostr;....' col='' mode='' marker='' obj='' objref=''></macro>
alter – {string} –
Alters the raw HTML string before insertion using RegExp patterns. Refer to tri.applyAlters for the format.
col – {string} –
Used internally in conjuction with the mode
parameter to generate standard HTML chunks. Also used
to extract the field name of the column. The $MODEL$ will be replaced by this field name.
fetch – {string} –
Template name to fetch. If not specified the col
and mode
params are
used to manufacture a standard block of HTML to insert.
marker – {string} –
used to create HTML comments in the generated code containing the marker string for diagnostic purposes.
mode – {string} –
Used internally in conjuction with the mode
parameter to generate standard HTML chunks.
obj – {string} –
The string $MODOBJ$ will be replaced by this value known as sObj
.
objref – {string} –
The object reference sObj
is set by evaluation of the objref
string.

System processes lead to:
1. Gaining access right
2. Changing code
Java checks file source:
FilePermission filePermission=new FilePermission("/tmp/*","read,write");
SocketPermission socketPermission=new SocketPermission("<IP_ADDRESS>:8080","listen");
Java also checks permission:
public void checkPermission(Permission perm)
public ProtectionDomain getProtectionDomain()
public ProtectionDomain(CodeSource var1, PermissionCollection var2)
public final CodeSource getCodeSource()
public boolean implies(Permission var1)
public final Certificate[] getCertificates()
public final URL getLocation()
Java also has security policy file which grants the permission
1. Online compilers
Saves time
Saves resources
BUT user inputs are from Internet
1. Online compilers
Gaining access:
GetEnv(), system(): allow an attacker to study and execute any command on the remote machine
GetEnv(): allows a hacker to learn information about the machine that is otherwise concealed from the web interface, such as the username and OS version.
1. Online compilers
Maintaining control:
Hackers cannot input codes every time, so
execl() :allows the user to specify any arbitrary program to replace the current process
2. Code optimization
g_exit; //global variable
g_exit= 1; //will be modified to break
while(g_exit)
{
...
}
Will be modified as while(1)
2. Code optimization
catch the case when len is so large that buf + len wraps around and bypasses the first check
2. Code optimization
Also disable exploitable functions

About Me:
Born and raised in a small town, with two brothers and a sister I quickly developed a love of adventure, and spending time with my family. My family first became aware of my love for photography, when I recieved a camera for Christmas around the age of 10. I was constantly terroizing my family by taking photographs and videos of them. Since then, my love of photography has only grown. On the rare ocassion that I'm not taking photographs, spending time with my friends and family, or working, you'll find in the shop working with wood, drawing, writing, or watching my current favorite tv show.


Site Rules
Section 1 - Introduction
EpticMC is a Minecraft Server community and network. In addition to employing voluntary staff, we allow users the freedom to act the way they think is best. This system is designed to provide an organic environment for users, while maintaining a certain degree of control against violation of site rules.
 This structure is designed so that perpetrators will be punished within the social hierarchy of the community. Nonetheless, if you see content that violates any rule on this page, disagrees with your common interest, or has an inappropriate connotation; you are obliged to address it to our staff via the report button.
By creating an account you acknowledge and agree to behave accordingly to the rules below.
Click on an Element to expand it
Expand/Compact all Rules
Section 2 - Forum Rules
Duplicating a thread or topic in multiple different sections of the forum is prohibited.
Posting identical content in different sections can be interpreted as spam. If you are unsure where to post your content, either ask a staff member of just post in one of the sections. Moderators may move the post then to the appropirate section.
The act of posting numerous times without another user's response in between is prohibited.
Posting multiple consecutive replies is considered spam. If for any reason you need to add anything to your post, use the edit function to do so. This does not apply if somone deletes their post situated inbetween two of another user's posts, creating the illusion of a double post.
When posting a thread or a post, more than one word must be used.
When posting, keep your responses elegant and educated. Although we will accept the occasional short, 1-word response, if a user is found to be a repeat offender, a warning will be issued.
The act of spamming is prohibited.
It is up to our staff to differentiate between legitimate content and outright spam.
The act of vouch posting or owning vouch threads are both considered general spam if there is no extensive justification of why a user is vouching.
The edit function does not safeguard users against previously violated rules. Even if the preceding content was not spam, the staff will consider the post’s current and previous state, resting in their hands the decision of warning the user as they deem fit.
Bumping posts without adding content or information is also considered Spam.
In order to avoid becoming a target of this rule, use common sense. Posts that are too vague, off-topic in relation to the original post, repetitive, short, or useless can and will fall under this rule.
Do not post your thread in an irrelevant section in relation to your topic.
Users are expected to use good judgement when posting in forum sections. Please post your thread in a section that best suits your topic. Warnings will be issued depending on the severity of the violation.

Members of the community are expected to treat each other with dignity and respect. Users are encouraged to review their content before posting. We understand that swearing and the use of foul language can be necessary to strengthen a point, and we most certainly don’t want to restrict the way you express yourself, however constant swearing and vulgar remarks in effort to harass other users is forbidden. Excessive vulgarity is unproductive, irrelevant, and prohibited.
Posting pornographic text, images, links, or any content in relation to that category, will not be tolerated.
Furthermore, any content of a sexual nature such as, but not limited to, “ecchi” and risque content will be removed.
Our community is an English-speaking environment and we do not have support for any other linguistic languages.
Users are authorized to practice other languages, as long as the majority of their content is in English, and their use of linguistics is not exclusive to a different language. However, we will not tolerate continuation of this behavior when another user expresses annoyance due to lack of understanding.
You are required to participate in a legible, mature, and comprehensible manner.
Posting content that contains pointless or excessive use of different fonts, colours, sizes, punctuation, and caps lock is prohibited.
Titles may not be short, uninformative, irrelevant to the central message, or ‘clickbait’.
Users are encouraged to consider an appropriate subject for their topics before submitting them to the community. A viewer should be able to grasp a basic understanding of what the thread is just by looking at the title.
All staff members reserve the right to edit, remove, or place any post on moderation queue at any time.
Only staff members may determine content that is construed as indecent, vulgar, spam, etc. This rule is not to be confused with ‘minimoding’, or informing users when they break rules - which is permitted if not overdone.
All site rules apply to the Private Messaging system.
Abuse or exploitation of this system may result in the revocation of Private Messaging privileges, as well as appropriate warnings and bans depending on the offence.
The registration or use of multiple accounts on EpticMC is prohibited under all circumstances.
Users who violate this rule must contact a member of the staff team immediately to inform them about the names of every account that they have used or created. If we discover the account(s) before they are reported by the user, all of the users accounts will be permanently banned with the exception of the account with the least content, which will be temporarily banned. If any of the accounts have been permanently banned for any reason other than multiaccounting, all of the users accounts will be permanently banned and the user will not be allowed back on EpticMC.
Do not post or revive any old, inactive threads.
Our system automatically locks threads that are older than a certain date, however if a thread has been left inactive for several weeks, do not resurface it. Instead, private message the original poster regarding your concerns and questions.
Do not attempt to bypass any site restriction, such as spam filters.
EpticMC filters content for a reason. Please refrain from spamming or adding pointless content to your posts to bypass length filters. In addition, using spelling variations of blocked words in order to say them is prohibited.
Homophobia and racism are not tolerated on our site.
This rule applies to homophobic or racially derogatory terms. Even if your intent is not to directly harass another user or to use it in a homophobic/racist manner, do not use socially improper terms. The same rule applies even if you are of the sexual preference or race you are describing.

This site and the games it supports revolves around some younger users. In efforts to maintain a healthy environment for all, we request that you respect their innocence by keeping such content away from our site.
The sharing of credit card or explicitly private information of
anyone is prohibited.
Fraudulent acts are not permitted on this website. Violation of this rule will lead to the removal of the content in question and appropriate punishment under moderator jurisdiction.
Sharing of accounts or information related to Banking or any other payment websites is prohibited.
Violation of this rule is illegal and will not be permitted on our site.
Sharing of accounts, whenther it's a Minecraft of EpticMC account is prohibited.
This applies to all accounts. Even if they are owned by the posting user.
Section 3 - Avatars
Avatars may not portray any symbolic representation to official status such as fake titles or staff member models.
This rule applies to user titles and usernames as well.
Images are subject to the same rules regarding, but not limited to pornography and vulgarity outlined above.
Violations will not be tolerated, leading to harsh punishments.
Section 4 - Offsite Linking
Pornographic links, or links leading to content with a pornographic connotation is are not permitted.
In conjunction with rule 2G, external links to pornographic content are not permitted. If pornography can be found on a page that you link to, or a few clicks away from, you will be punished for violating this rule.
Links to content containing gore are prohibited.
Users are given the right to determine what is gore and what is not, however if there’s any dispute, do not post it. If determined inappropriate by staff, the content will be removed and the user will be appropriately punished.
Download links are permitted when ensured that they are safe (See 4E).
If the file is infected, voilates copyright or does not comply with the rules of this site, then it is not permitted on EpticMC.
Any kind of copyrighted material such as software (warez) or music is not allowed.
If the product or program that you are linking to is copyrighted, you must not post it. Even if the host is on an external site.
Downloads links to files containing or having any relation to malware are not permitted.
This rule applies regardless of whether or not you know the file is malicious. If you are unsure, do not post the file nor ask the community if it is malicious. Violators of this rule will be dealt with accordingly, for the safety of our community.
Do not post files that are not what you say they are.
Files designed to ‘troll’ users by promising to be something they’re not will be treated as malware, and a violation of rule 2E.
Do not post links to hateful, violent, gruesome, terrorist, or generally inappropriate content.
While we encourage you to use common sense and good judgement, feel free to ask a staff member when you are unsure whether or not it falls under this category.
Any link embedded into our website will be considered an external link.
As a result, section 4 of the rules will apply to it. Examples are images and videos embedded through our [img] and [video] tags.
Encryption, Shortening or obfuscation of links is prohibited.

Links to magnet or .torrent files are prohibited.
Malware can easily be associated with torrent files since torrenting is most often used for the distribution of malicious files. For the safety of the community, we ask that you do not provide links to these sources.
Advertising sites for the sake of personal or community gain is prohibited.
This rule applies to referral sites, other forum boards, and any other site used for this purpose.
Section 5 - Signatures
Signatures may contain up to five lines of text and/or two images.
Signatures must be less than 200 pixels and of the lowest file size you can manage to ensure optimal page loading times. This can be overlooked if your signature is placed inside of a spoiler tag using the correct code during the editing process.
Signatures may not portray any symbolic representation to official status such as fake titles or staff member models.
This includes copying a staff members signature, claiming to be one in your own, or otherwise implying that you have site status.
Section 6 - Enforcement
Users will be warned a maximum of five times for any and all offences in a three month period.
If the need for a fifth warning arises, a 1-week ban will be issued. If the user violates another rule after being banned for 5 strikes and none of their warnings have expired, they will receive another temporary ban.
Aggressive and Excessive arguing after being warned will result in an additional warning.
You are entitled to challenge your warning if you believe it to be unjust, and you are entitled to ask for clarification on your warning, however you may not be disrespectful in the process.
If you feel unjustly warned, you may appeal by responding to the warning private message.
If the staff member who issued a warning feels you were mistreated, they will remove a warning. On the other hand, if they notice you are being irrational, childish, and/or argumentative, it will lead to an additional warning as stated in the above rule.
Attempting to circumvent a ban or moderator action will result in a permanent ban of your account(s).
Acts that fall under circumvention include but are not limited to, re-registering or using an already registered account under a non-banned username, changing IP addresses, using a new email account, or any other action that can be taken to hide your identity as the owner of the sanctioned account.
The staff team withholds the right to bypass or neglect the five strike policy.
Moderator actions will ALWAYS be based on the rules, however a moderator reserves the right to act accordingly and rightfully when they believe is necessary to establish order and maintain control.
Rationalization and contemplation play huge roles in the moderation team before issuing a permanent ban.
 While EpticMC may consider lifting permanent bans from time to time, this is a very rare circumstance.
Section 7 - Privacy
The sharing of any explicitly personal information of anyone, including non-users is not permitted.
Such 'information' includes, but is not limited to:
- Names
- IP Addresses
- Email Addresses
- Social Media Pages
- Skype Names
- Content from Private Messages
The only exception to this rule being if the person whose information is being shared permits it.
Privacy is important to us, as it is to many of the members of EpticMC. All content posted by any member of this site is to be kept on this site, unless the original poster of the content explicitly says otherwise. In addition, private messages are to remain private, and without explicit permission, content that users email to you privately is to stay between those users, you, and staff members. Some information is private for a reason. Requesting or explicitly asking for private information will not be tolerated.

Worldview
Still trying to figure it out myself.
How was the universe created
I do not know. Still holding out for an answer, whether that answer comes from science or elsewhere.
What does it mean to be a human being?
To be a member of the homo sapien species.

I don't know. Again, I'm still holding out for an answer.
