FUNCTIONAL AREAS FOR SYSTEM TESTING
The following is a grid of the various elements of Discover that require testing. The introduction of additional languages makes the amount of time required for complete testing combinatoric. Needless to say exhaustive testing becomes extremely expensive:
Total time for exhaustive testing all functionality
on all platforms for all languages and manually: ~409.5 hours
Total time for exhaustive testing the most important functionality
on Unix platforms using DISCOVER regression tests: ~129.75 hours
Total time for exhaustive testing all functionality on all platforms
for all languages using manually and regression tests: ~279.75 hours
In order to achieve solid coverage and acceptable time the following plan was created. On the most significant platforms get exhaustively tested for one language. All remaining platforms receive general testing for a single language. “General” indicates functionality that is commonly used and central to the product. All remaining languages are tested against only that functionality which particularly sensitive to changes in the underlying IM data structures. The time required is as follows:
Total time for a single pass testing on two platforms for one language
using manually and regression tests:
NT ~72.75 hours
Sun5 ~44.75 hours
~117.5 hours
Total time for General Functionality pass on other platforms:
Win2000 ~27.75 hours
HP10 ~16.00 hours
IRIX ~16.00 hours
~59.75 hours
Total time for system testing: ~177.25 hours
When the release is ready and the last of the defects repaired, the final requirement is general testing on the major platforms and smoke testing on the others. This is to insure the quality of the final build, in the case if smoke and regression tests for sun5, HP11 and Irix succeeded.
Total time for Release Testing, General Functionality two platforms:
NT ~38.75 hours
Sun5 ~31.00 hours
~69.45 hours
The following is the legend to styles used below:
General Functionality testing is in bold type (required for any release).

RUSHMORE (Touchstone) Starring: Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Olivia Williams, Brian Cox, Mason Gamble. Screenplay: Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson. Producers: Barry Mendel and Paul Schiff. Director: Wes Anderson. MPAA Rating: R (profanity, adult humor) Running Time: 93 minutes. Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
Wes Anderson has the kind of comic sensibility that keeps you watching just so you can see where he goes next. His debut feature BOTTLE ROCKET married bone-dry wit to good-natured character study in a tale of would-be thieves whose inbred suburban politesse limits the effectiveness of their crime spree. Though the humor was often absurd, Anderson and his co-writer Owen Wilson never sacrificed character for the sake of an easy joke. You got the feeling that they had a genuine affection for their creations, that they respected the grandiose lengths to which they took their dreams even as they chuckled at the results.
It's that same sensibility that makes RUSHMORE such a quirky delight -- it's a uniquely oddball comedy that's still about people.  His latest extracurricular interest is Rosemary Cross (Olivia Williams), a first-grade teacher at Rushmore with whom Max is instantly smitten. In an attempt to win her affections, Max enlists the aid of his friend Herman Blume (Bill Murray), a millionaire industrialist, to build an aquarium at the school in Miss Cross's honor. Unfortunately, Max soon finds Blume turned from ally to competitor for the fair lady's heart, beginning a strange war between the two.
It would have been easy enough for Anderson to turn RUSHMORE into an ever-escalating, bigger-must-be-funnier battle of pranks. Instead, he spends plenty of time getting us inside the messed-up heads of his two central characters. In a telling first scene, we see Max daydreaming about solving a brain-cracking geometry problem and receiving a grand ovation from his classmates. Like a typical teen, Max is concerned with how others see him; unlike a typical teen, his concern manifests itself in an obsession with grand gestures, with being perceived as important. He lives and breathes for Rushmore because it gives him an impressive stage to found dozens of clubs, produce his overwrought plays and forget that he's the son of a barber. As splendidly portrayed by first-time actor Schwartzman, Max's egomaniacal infatuations -- first with the school and then with Miss Cross -- come off as the sweetly immature behavior of a kid trying way too hard to appear mature.
There's plenty immature about Herman Blume as well, imbued with an aura of pure defeat by Bill Murray. Unhappy with his wife and sadistic teenage twins, Blume longs for the simpler troubles of youth. His betrayal of Max to begin his own romance with Miss Cross could have made him a villain; instead, his behavior indicates a man returning to typically childish inconsiderate acts like stealing his best friend's girlfriend. Though the destructive salvos exchanged by Max and Blume are wonderfully funny, they're also ridiculous because of the players involved: a kid working desperately to be an adult, and an adult working desperately to be a kid.
With a foundation in those two marvelous characters, RUSHMORE is free to let its comedy swoop from the sublime (Max appearing in the darkened back seat of Blume's car like a double-crossed mafioso, cigarette glowing ominously) to the ridiculous (Max's stage re-creation of Vietnam). Anderson shows an equal facility for off-kilter compositions and deadpan dialogue (Max to Vietnam veteran Blume: "So...were you in the sh*t?"), combining for one of the smartest comedies you'll see. Anderson and Wilson do bite off perhaps a few too many plot threads -- the friendship between Max and his young Rushmore "chapel buddy" (Mason Gamble) doesn't really go anywhere -- but there are so many deft comic touches that the less interesting elements are somehow diluted. At its core, the narrative of RUSHMORE is quite conventional stuff about people who learn Important Lessons about what they want from life. Those lessons are given such a singular presentation that you may only realize after you've stopped laughing that these people, for all their foolishness, are all the more appealing because they're real.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 academy rewards: 9.

Mineral licks can be naturally occurring (natural licks) or artificial (such as blocks of salt that farmers place in pastures for livestock to lick). Natural licks are not uncommon, and they provide the biometals (sodium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, zinc, and trace elements) required in the springtime for bone, muscle and other growth in deer and other wildlife, such as moose, elephants, tapirs, cattle, woodchucks, domestic sheep, fox squirrels, mountain goats and porcupines. Such licks are especially important in ecosystems with poor general availability of nutrients. Harsh weather exposes salty mineral deposits that draw animals from miles away for a taste of needed nutrients. It is thought that certain fauna can detect calcium in salt licks.

Chapter 3 Preventative Measures
The following are some suggestions for preventing academic integrity issues before they start.
3.1 Make your syllabus clear
Your syllabus must include the previously described language from the obligations of the faculty document
The mandatory language above does not prescribe how you, as the instructor, will sanction students for cheating/plagiarism. My opinion is that student expectations would be better managed by including specific langauge about how cheating/plagiarism will be handled in your course. This could be similar to a section about how late or missed assignments are dealt with. Here is some example language that I am developing for Experimental Psychology.
3.1.1 Cheating and Plagiarism in this course
This class has a zero tolerance policy for cheating/plagiarism. If you are caught cheating and/or plagiarizing then you will receive a failing grade for this course, and a Faculty Action Report will be filed against you.
You should assume that unless explictly told otherwise, that all assignments in this course are to be completed by you alone. All of your written work should be your own. Specifically, the following assignments and papers are to be completed by you alone: list assignments here. The exceptions to this rule include any group work, such as the following: list group work here.
By handing in each assignment you are pledging your honor that you did not violate the CUNY policy on Acamedic Integrity, which you are responsible for reading and understanding.
All of the following are examples of cheating/plagiarism, that if detected will result in serious academic sanctions:
- Copying work from another student and handing it in as your own.
- including, copying a few sentences from someone else
- including, paraphrasing parts of someone else’s work
- including, working together on assignments that are individual assignments
- Aiding cheating/plagiarism by sharing your work or giving your work to other students
- Copying from a website
- Having an online tutor, or other person, complete an assignment for you, and handing in that work as your own
- Paraphrasing someone elses writing (e.g., from a website, from a textbook, from an article, from another student etc.) by substituting words and making changes and handing this work in as your own.
- Self-plagiarising, including handing in a previous assignment from another class as part of completing an assignment for this class
- All of the examples listed in the CUNY policy on Academic Integrity
In this class, when an investigation of a suspected violation of the Academic integrity policy demonstrates that a student knowingly and deliberately violated the policy, the student will receive a failing grade in this course. Following Brookyln College policy, any time an instructor detects compelling evidence of a suspected academic integrity, they must report it using the Faculty Action Report. When compelling evidence of a suspected violation occurs in this course, the following steps will be taken:
- You will be notified by me that I have detected compelling evidence of cheating/plagiarism
- I will schedule a time to meet with you
- I will fill out and submit a Faculty Action report, which describes the evidence, the result of our discussion, and whether you accept the academic sanction
- The academic sanction will be that you receive a failing grade for this course
- The FAR report (Faculty Action Report) will be filed with the College’s Academic Integrity Officer Mr. Patrick Kavanagh (Office of the Associate Provost for Academic Programs: 3208 Boylan Hall,<PHONE_NUMBER> fax:<PHONE_NUMBER>).
- All students who have a FAR report filed against them can file an appeal, and should contact Mr. Patrick Kavanagh to arrange for an appeal.
3.2 Honor Pledges
Some students may be unaware that their actions constitute cheating and plagiarism, additionally some students who violate academic integrity rules may claim after the fact that they were unaware that their behavior constituted cheating and/or plagiarism. Consider instituting an honor pledge on exams and assignemts to make sure that students are aware prior to completing the assignment. An example honor pledge that can be placed at the beginning of an exam or assignment is:
“I pledge my honor that I am submitting my own work, that I did not receive or give help on this individual assignment, and that I did not violate the CUNY Academic integrity rules. I understand the consequences for violating the CUNY academic integrity rules as described in the syllabus for this course. Sign here: _____________”
3.3 Talk about cheating and plagiarism in class
Consider discussing cheating and plagiarism and how you will deal with these issues in your class during class time.
3.4 Turnitin and SafeAssign
The blackboard system offers two services for detecting plagiarism in written work, these are turnitin and SafeAssign. You can enable SafeAssign and Turnitin on blackboard, and have students submit written work on Blackboard. Both services check the pool of submitted documents for verbatim similarities. They do not detect paraphrasing. SafeAssign checks similarities between the submitted documents for the assignment, whereas Turnitin addditionall compares the submitted documents to websites, and previously submitted documents in their database.
Neither service works perfectly, or even near perfectly. For example, a students paper might return a very high similarity score (> 90%). This could mean that 90% of their document was lifted verbatim from another single sourcce (obvious cheating), or it could be a sum total of small partial matches across many different documents. A student’s paper could also return a very low similarity score (<10%), consistent with no cheating. However, further scrutiny of the reason for the match might show that one or two entire sentences have been directly copied verbatim from another students or source.
Instructors have the option of letting students pre-submit their work to determine their safeassign or turnitin similarity score prior to submitting their work. This may be useful in preventing cheating and plagiarism.

filmcritic.com presents a review from staff member Athan Bezaitis. You can find the review with full credits at http://www.filmcritic.com/misc/emporium.nsf/2a460f93626cd4678625624c007f2b46/9569e78c3e3008e988256897005ab16a?OpenDocument
THE VIRGIN SUICIDES by Athan Bezaitis copyright 2000 filmcritic.com
THE VIRGIN SUICIDES is a dark comedy that embodies some twisted views on suburban family life and the true lack innocence of adolescence. First-time writer and director Sofia Coppola, daughter of GODFATHER creator Francis Ford Coppola, proves to us that she's not really an actress (see THE GODFATHER, PART III), but that she does have the family knack for provocative movie directing. The movie is based upon Jeffrey Eugenides' novel, The Virgin Suicides, a detective story about five sisters who mysteriously commit suicide and the investigation by four neighborhood boys who had fallen in love with them. Coppola, however, transforms the movie into her own allegory of five adolescent girls who suffer from ruthlessly suppressed lives, their desperate plea for self-expression, and the tragedy that besets their wretched existence.
Set in the mid-seventies, the plot follows the Lisbon family, with James Woods, a physics teacher at the local high school, as the scatter brained father, and Kathleen Turner as the uncommonly strict mother. Their five daughters are beautiful, naturally blonde, and the desire of every boy in the neighborhood. When the youngest, Cecilia, mysteriously attempts suicide, psychiatrist Danny DeVito recommends that she be allowed to interact more socially, especially with boys. So the Lisbon girls are introduced to the boys of the neighborhood, who have already been watching the girls from afar through half-opened window shades, binoculars, and telescopes.  As a result, the Lisbons fall into a deep suppression shutting out the rest of the world by retreating into their own inner sanctum. It appears they will never recover until Trip Fontaine (Josh Hartnett), the high school heartthrob, pursues the unattainable Lux (Kirsten Dunst). He attempts to ask her to the prom, but the only way her mother will allow him to take Lux is if all the girls go together. For the first time, the girls will venture out of the home to interact socially in an environment other than school.
The movie begins as a lighthearted comedy with some great cameos from the likes of DeVito and town priest Scott Glenn (BACKDRAFT). The tone, however, turns somber once the children are exposed to the worst of their suppression.  Reminiscent of 1987's FLOWERS IN THE ATTIC, the children are forced to fantasize through travel guides, imagining a different life in faraway lands.
The film, with its large ensemble cast, is well acted, and director Coppola gets the best out of old pros Woods and Turner, while at the same time coaxing solid performances out of her young cast, especially Dunst and Hartnett. On the flip side, what the film lacks is solid character development. We don't learn enough about any of the neighborhood boys, or the strict Lisbon parents, or the mysterious Trip Fontaine. Constantly floating from one sequence of events to the next, I was left with too many unanswered questions as to whether the story was a mystery about what drove the girls off the edge, or how the neighborhood boys became so fascinated with them. Either way, it takes away some of the film's appeal with no "real" characters to latch on to in order to help you through such a bizarre and fantastic situation.
Despite its flaws, THE VIRGIN SUICIDES is a success.  With this film, Sofia Coppola will strike a presence for herself on the Hollywood scene -- no longer to be known for her infamous role as Michael Corleone's daughter. Ford Coppola was criticized for casting Sofia in that role, but now he will be praised for helping to produce his daughter's beautiful film.

Benchmarks
Introduction
Benchmark results are always dependent on a very individual setup. Normally it is not useful to generalize such results for every use case, but it can give you a hint. However, if you're really in the need of maximum performance, you should probably create an own benchmark with your objects or even use a profiler to detect the real hot spots in your application.
XStream uses the Java Microbenchmark Harness (JMH) of the JDK Tools as benchmark framework starting with version 1.4.9. As result it contains a ZIP file (xstream-jmh-<version>-app.zip) as new artifact containing anything required to run the benchmarks. Unpack the file and use the scripts in the bin directory to execute the benchmarks. Use option -h to look at the options provided by JMH. You may exchange the libraries in the lib directory with other versions of XStream or the individual parsers or you may even add new JMH benchmarks to the default ones of XStream.
All benchmark values below measure the average throughput in nanosecond per operation. JMH provides additional measurement options, see online help. The maximum deviation for each benchmark is recorded in the reference files of the distributed ZIP file. The benchmark is executed on Linux 5.4.48 Gentoo 64-bit system with an Intel Core i7 CPU 920 of 2.67 GHz using OpenJDK 11.0.8. Note again, that these values are no replacement for real profiler results and they may vary from run to run (see reference files) due to this machine's background processes. However, it can give you some idea of what you can expect using different parser technologies.
Parser Benchmark
The values represent the average throughput of 15 runs with a single thread. The benchmarks emphasis the parser efficiency for different structures.
| Parser | Text | Array | Nested |
|---|---|---|---|
| W3C DOM (Open JDK 11.0.8) | 10587727.502 | 58925980.509 | 5547526.718 |
| JDOM (1.1.3) | 6541414.372 | 6842504.530 | 19329741.881 |

| DOM4J (1.6.1) | 8680900.188 | 79133279.111 | 5501080.957 |
| XOM (1.1) | 8062184.585 | 33057256.100 | 5842749.643 |
| StAX (BEA 1.2.0) | 3208123.897 | 862349.819 | 798003.236 |
| StAX (Woodstox 3.2.7) | 1958090.473 | 764703.865 | 852446.766 |
| StAX (Open JDK 11.0.8) | 8449107.541 | 771151.977 | 630602.435 |
| XPP (Xpp3 min 1.1.4c) | 2076542.383 | 717142.178 | 12332209.281 |
| XPP (kXML2 min 2.3.0) | 3609529.640 | 886358.766 | 37562872.191 |
| Binary (XStream 1.4.13) | 1057890.361 | 385824.031 | 255649.550 |
| Jettison (1.2) | 3610357.375 | 594530.928 | 674957.675 |
- Text
- A single element with a text of 100.000 characters.
- Array
- A single element with 1.000 child elements.
- Nested
- Nested elements in 1000 levels (since version 1.4.10).
Converter Type Benchmark
The values represent the average throughput of 16 runs with four threads using the Xpp3 parser for a structure with 1.000 elements. The benchmarks demonstrate the different converter types that can be used for a standard Java class.
| Converter Type | Throughput |
|---|---|
| Custom | 9511483.088 |
| Java Bean | 18956037.656 |
| Reflection | 22467750.653 |
- Custom
- A converter especially written for the Java type to convert.
- Java Bean
- Usage of the generic JavaBeanConverter, since the Java type respects the Java Bean contract.
- Reflection
- Usage of the generic converter based on reflection.
String Converter Benchmark
The values represent the average throughput of 16 runs with four threads using the Xpp3 parser for a structure with 10.000 string elements of various sizes and duplicates. The benchmarks demonstrate different implementations and configurations of the StringConverter.
| StringConverter Strategy | Throughput |
|---|---|
| No Cache | 9381243.000 |
| Intern | 12528650.663 |
| ConcurrentMap (length limit) | 10583918.884 |
| ConcurrentMap (unlimited) | 11762308.937 |
| Sync'd WeakCache (length limit) | 11104926.490 |
| Sync'd WeakCache (unlimited) | 11092087.483 |
- No Cache
- An implementation that does not cache deserialized String values with the consequence that repeated values will always allocate separate memory.
- Intern
- An implementation that uses String.intern() to cache the individual values. The memory pool used for the values is dependent on the JDK version. Up to Java 7 this was the permanent generation space i.e. the memory has to be shared with all loaded classes. It is up to the garbage collection when these string values are freed again.
- ConcurrentMap (length limit)
- An implementation that uses a ConcurrentHashMap as cache for strings of limited length (38 characters). The lifetime of the cache is equivalent with the lifetime of the XStream instance.
- ConcurrentMap (unlimited)
- An implementation that uses a ConcurrentHashMap as cache for all strings. The lifetime of the cache is equivalent with the lifetime of the XStream instance.
- Sync'd WeakCache (length limit)
- An implementation that uses a WeakCache for strings of limited length (38 characters). This cache uses weak references for its keys and values. An entry is therefore only kept as long as the deserialized object structure is referencing it. This is XStream's default strategy.
- Syn'd WeakCache (unlimited)
- An implementation that uses a WeakCache for all strings. This cache uses weak references for its keys and values. An entry is therefore ony kept as long as the deserialized object structure is referencing it.
Name Coder Benchmark
The values represent the average throughput of 25 runs with four threads using the Xpp3 parser for a structure with 250 nested elements using names invalid for XML elements. The benchmarks demonstrate different implementation strategies for a NameCoder to create valid tag names in XML.
| NameCoder Implementation | Throughput |
|---|---|
| No Coding | 4068459.179 |
| Dollar Coding | 5006636.275 |
| Escaped Underscore Coding | 6714770.410 |
| Cached Escaped Underscore Coding | 4486384.078 |
| Xml Friendly Coding | 5017414.939 |
- No Coding
- An implementation that does not encode the names of XML elements. It relies on the fact that the object graph does not contain elements with invalid XML names, because the name of the class types and members are either conforming or have been aliased.
- Dollar Coding
- An implementation that uses String.replace to replace any dollar sign with '·' (middle dot), a valid character normally not used for Java identifiers. In typical Java code there are no other invalid characters used for Java identifiers, however, Java allows identifiers to contain a wide range of UTF-8 characters and the JVM has even less restrictions.
- Escaped Underscore Coding
- An implementation that uses a StringBuilder to create the XML name by replacing any dollar sign with '_-' and escapes every plain underscore with two ones. The implementation will therefore only use characters in the standard ASCII range. It is not possible to use a simple minus sign as replacement because it is not a valid first character for XML names. However, the comments about Java identifiers and JVM identifiers from the Dollar Coding still apply.
- Cached Escaped Underscore Coding
- An implementation that implements a cache for the NameCoder that escapes the underscores.
- Xml Friendly Coding
- The default implementation of XStream using a StringBuilder and a cache, encoding any character that is invalid for XML names. It implements also the underscore escaping for compatibility reasons with XML created by earlier versions of XStream.

Kitchener property taxes could go up 2.2%: report
Kitchener city council will open up discussions on their operating budget Monday morning
by Mark PareA lengthy discussion is set to take place at Kitchener city hall, as council takes a glance at their operating budget for next year.
Plans won't likely be finalized until a budget meeting set for January 20th, 2020. But as it stands, there is a proposed property tax increase of 2.2 per cent for 2020.
That would work out to being $24 extra for the average homeowner for the year, while increases to water utilities and gas would put the total increase to $81 on average for homeowners.

Everyone wants the data on their phone to stay private, but there’s a reason Android and iOS come with a variety of security measures to prevent other people from accessing it.
Your phone’s lock screen is the first barrier against unauthorized access. Whether you use a PIN code or a biometric feature (like pressing down a fingerprint or showing a face, make sure you protect your handset with the most secure method.
You can customize lock screen security on Android by going to Settings, choosing Security, and then Screen lock.
Meanwhile, from the Settings app on iOS, choose either Touch ID & Passcode or Face ID & Password depending on which biometric security method is built into your iPhone.
Thanks to the security protocols in place on Android and iOS, it’s actually quite difficult for spying software to get on your phone without your knowledge.
To succeed, someone would need to physically access your phone and install a monitoring app, or trick you into clicking on a link, opening a dodgy email attachment, or downloading something from outside your operating system’s official app store.
You should see a warning if you do any of these things by mistake, but because it’s easy to disregard those little notifications, you should always be careful what you click on.
Apple and Google make it easy for you to share your location, photos, and calendars with other people—but only if you want to.
If you’re on an iPhone, head to the People tab in the Find My app to see who can see your location at all times, and to revoke access if necessary.
You can audit shared photo albums from the Shared Albums section of the Albums tab in Photos, and shared calendars from the Calendars screen in the Calendar app.
If you’re in a Family Sharing group that you no longer want to be a part of, open Settings, tap your name, and choose Leave Family.
Android handles location sharing with other people through Google Maps. Tap your avatar (top right), then Location sharing to check who can see your location, and to stop them, if necessary.
You can check your shared photo albums in Google Photos by tapping the message bubble icon (top left), but you’ll need to open up Google Calendar on the web to edit shared calendars. Click the three dots next to any calendar in the column on the left, then Settings and sharing to see who can view your schedule.
Regaring Google Families, no one in the family can see any personal files unless you specifically share them, but if you want to leave a family group, open up the Play Store app on Android. Then tap the menu button (top left), Account, Family, and View family members. If you tap the three dots (top right), you’ll find the Leave family group option.
The usual password rules apply: Don’t repeat credentials across multiple accounts and make sure they’re easy for you to remember while remaining impossible for anyone else to guess. This includes even those closest to you, so avoid names, birthdays, and pet names.
Two-step authentication (2FA) is available on most digital accounts, so switch it on wherever you can. For Apple accounts, visit this page and click Edit next to Security; for Google accounts, go to Manage account, Security, and click on 2-Step Verification.
As long as you have 2FA set up, any unwelcome visitor should be blocked from signing straight back into your account, even if they know your password. To be safe though, if you discover some sort of unauthorized access, we’d still recommend changing your password.
Password managers are programs that store and manage your passwords across all your accounts. Password managers store your passwords in an encrypted database that can only be accessed through a master password.
Benefits - Easy to use, secure passwords and convinience
Risks - Easily targetable, putting your eggs in one basket and autofill becomes a big security risk

Super Mario Bros. 2 gave players the power of choice, as you could pick from any of the four available heroes to act as your avatar in any of this game's levels. Each had their own strengths and weaknesses, too – Mario was the well-rounded pick, not excelling in any individual area. The Princess could daintily float through the sky, her jumps carrying her easily across long gaps the others couldn't clear.
In Japan, Super Mario Bros. 2 was an altogether different game – a more difficult expansion pack to Mario's first Super outing. But it's America's #2 that has gone on to impact his series much, much more.

The Elephant Man Directed by David Lynch
A film review by Chris Loar
As David Lynch's first commercially viable film, THE ELEPHANT MAN is an odd -- but nearly perfect -- blend of the conventional and the idiosyncratic. What's remarkable about it is that, despite its mainstream appeal, it's still emphatically a film by David Lynch; it jettisons all of the mawkish sentimentality that might well have burdened a film about the travails of John Merrick, Victorian England's Elephant Man, and replaces it with a complicated meditation on voyeurism and ethics. To my mind, this is one of Lynch's most successful films; the discipline of adhering to a conventional storyline makes his style here less solipsistic and self-indulgent than it has sometimes been elsewhere; and the credible characters of Dr. Frederick Treves (Anthony Hopkins) and John Merrick (William Hurt) make the picture more emotionally involving than, say, WILD AT HEART.
The film tells the tale of the unfortunate John Merrick, an Englishman afflicted with a rare congenital deformity; he has a profoundly misshapen skull, and most of his body is covered with fleshy growths and tumors. He's on exhibit in a sideshow when he is rescued by Dr. Treves, who reacts to him with a mixture of pity and fascination. And because that pity is tainted, the rescue itself is somewhat ambiguous; Dr. Treves initially assumes Merrick to be an imbecile, and puts him on display for his colleagues. Later, as Merrick begins to open up to his new caretaker, the two begin to develop a friendship, and Treves begins to introduce his friend to members of polite society. But that friendship and those introductions are also, arguably, tainted; as Merrick begins to enter polite society, he does so as a spectacle and a curiosity rather than as an active member of society. Or so Lynch seems to argue. What I admire most about this film is its refusal of easy sentimentality; there is no triumph here for Merrick. Even in one of the final sequences, when Merrick attends the theater and, for the first time, is a spectator rather than a spectacle, there is no victory -- for immediately after the performance, the audience turns and looks to him, and it's HE that receives the standing ovation. For a child of the carnival, there is no easy escape from the freakshow.
All this might not have worked were it not for some fine acting, including some first-rate work by Hopkins and Hurt. Hurt, in particular, is excellent, even under what must have been fifteen pounds of prosthetic makeup; his dialogue shows a perfect sense of timing, and his body manages to convey debility mixed with a blend of self-hatred and pride. Hopkins is nicely modulated as the morally confused doctor. And there are some fine secondary parts; the virtually unknown Michael Elphick is particularly good as a night porter who profits by humiliating Merrick.
The film is also a technical marvel. It's shot beautifully in black and white by Freddie Francis (a onetime director of horror films; he went on to win an Oscar for his work on GLORY), and Lynch's more expressionist tendencies are blended nicely with a relatively conventional visual style. The soundtrack, too, makes excellent use of Lynch's trademark sound effects; hisses, clanks, and other sound effects blend with the dialogue to give the production a rather eerie effect.
Lynch's work since ELEPHANT MAN has increasingly veered back towards the arty self-indulgence of ERASERHEAD -- which isn't altogether a bad thing, and has resulted in some spectacular films. (Indeed, some, such as BLUE VELVET, are clearly superior to ELEPHANT MAN.) But this film -- by demonstrating that unconventional filmmaking can find a home in the bottom-line world of Hollywood melodrama -- is in some ways his most important achievement.

Java SE offers a rich set of APIs and features for developing secure Java applications and services. The exercise sessions listed here can help you to use the Java SE GSS APIs to build applications that authenticate their users, to communicate securely with other applications and services, and help you to configure your applications in a Kerberos environment to achieve Single Sign-On. In addition, you will also learn how to use stronger encryption algorithms in a Kerberos environment, and how to use Java GSS mechanisms such as SPNEGO to secure the association.
Please download, install and configure the software listed below:
%JAVA_HOME%
environment variable to point
to the installation directory of the JDK.This session includes six lessons. Each part contains one or more coding exercises:
Make sure you have verified the following configuration settings before proceding to the first Exercise:
JAVA_HOME
environment variable to point
to the JDK installation directory%JAVA_HOME%\bin
(Windows) or
$JAVA_HOME/bin
(Solaris/Linux) in the PATH
environment variable.Please work through these exercises in sequence:
Kerberos accounts are set up on the Key Distribution Center
(KDC). Each entry in the Kerberos database contains a Kerberos
principal. You should create a host-based principal for
the machine that you will be running the servers (e.g.,
"host/j1hol-001
") and a client principal (e.g.,
"test
") for accessing the servers.
For Solaris, please refer to following documentation on how to setup Kerberos principals.
For Windows, please refer to Microsoft documentation. Here are some pointers.
The exercises assume that the operating system has been
configured to use the correct Kerberos server. This configuration
typically requires administration privileges. If you cannot
configure the operating system, then you can use a Kerberos
configuration file with your java
command by using
the -Djava.security.krb5.conf
option. Here is an
example of how to invoke one of the commands from the exercises to
use the krb5.conf
configuration file.
% java -Djava.security.auth.login.config=jaas-krb5.conf\ -Djava.security.krb5.conf=krb5.conf Jaas client

(static) addKey(keyCode)
Add a keyset constant(s) to the requested set of remote control (RC) keys.
RC keys in HbbTV 2 are split into a set that is available all time and a set that is available only after activation of the app. The app is activated when the user presses a key from the first set assuming the application had requested it.
Keys available all time: NAVIGATION, COLOUR.
Keys available after activation: NUMERICAL, VCR.
The keyset always shows which keys are available to the application, i.e. if the requested keyset is larger than the keys that are available, the resulting keyset contains only a subset of the requested one.
You can use the appman to add all required keys by your application before activation, however you have to use applyKeyset after your application got activated.
On terminals running HbbTV 1.x RC keys are always available to applications.
Note: Use this function carefully, request only keys you need and release keys with remKey when you don't need a key any longer.

Poster boy for co-dependency needs patching
Patch Adams A Film Review By Michael Redman Copyright 1999 By Michael Redman
*1/2 (Out of ****)
Mediocrity is a pox on civilization. In our heavily consumer oriented society, there is an enormous demand to churn out "stuff." What would happen to our economy if we didn't feel the need to have more things? To make us buy more, businesses need to produce a ton of product. The sheer volume of items necessitates that most of them are of dubious quality.
The film industry is like any other. In order for studios to survive, they have to make money. The prevailing attitude is that more films equal more profit.
Some movies obviously exist only to put wares on the screen and to do that, less talented people are used. There aren't enough great directors and actors to create the number of films necessary. For some reason, it's never crossed anyone's mind that the real equation is quality films = more profit.
Often, mediocre films are more of a pain for the audience than the horrendous ones. At you can have a good time making fun of bad movies.
I'm not suggesting that "Patch Adams" was tossed out just to rake in the bucks. My guess is that someone was asleep at the wheel. It features an accomplished actor and a potentially engrossing story, but it's as dull as could be.
Hunter "Patch" Adams' (Robin Williams) desire to become a doctor has an unusual genesis. Checking himself into a mental institute after a suicide attempt, he discovers that he can help the other patients by clowning around.
Patch could be a poster boy for co-dependency. He explains that he likes devoting himself to others because then he doesn't focus on his own problems. He decides that he wants to be a physician, leaves the place and a couple of years later enrolls in the Medical College of Virginia.
As a med student, Patch's antics at the school's hospital catch the attention of his soon to be arch-enemy, straight-laced Dean Walcott (Bob Gunton). The dean is so opposed to the goofiness that he wants Patch kicked out of school although he's one of the top students. He writes in Patch's academic file that he shows "excessive happiness."
I walked into the film knowing little about its history and wondered about its odd mechanical pacing. There also seemed to be no reason that it is set in the early seventies. Then it struck me. It must be based on a true story. The movie is an adaptation of a book by Hunter Adams who founded the Gesundheit Institute, a free clinic.
Robin Williams is an amazing actor. While he is adept at dramatic roles, his forte is over-the-top free spirits.  Patch is exactly the character he should be best at, yet even the scene where he and another mental patient are battling fierce imaginary squirrels falls flat. Something holds him back.
Most of the rest of the cast is two-dimensional. For a film that champions seeing patients as human beings, it's curious that the ones here are cardboard characters. Peter Coyote as a man dying of cancer is refreshing because he seems like a real person. Unfortunately he's in the film for only about two minutes.
The audience is blatantly lead by a ring in its nose from scene to scene. We're not left to our own emotional decisions: we're hit over the head with them. Shaved-headed children with cancer, an elderly woman whom Patch makes laugh, a beautiful woman who can't love because of her abusive history. When a group of students fix up an old house to use as a clinic in the Andy Hardy "Hey, let's put on a play! We can use the barn and my mom can make the curtains!" mode, they laugh and roll around while painting each other.
There might as well be giant signs flashing: "Feel good now!" "Feel bad now!"
"Patch" is a good title for the film. It is a patchwork of every manipulative scene you can think of. The full-of-life student fights stodgy establishment types. There's a touching death. Then there's another. The film doesn't trust us to get it the first time. The dean tries to kick Patch out and later he tries again.
Worst of all is the final courtroom bit. Scary-looking old men sit in judgment of a man who only wants to help people. The room is packed with Patch's supporters. Williams makes a supposedly impassioned speech about the humanity of all. It has as much emotion as his earlier statement "humans are the only animal that kills members of its own species" contains truth.
Most of the blame must be placed with the director Tom Shadyac and screenwriter Steve Oedekerk. Shadyac also directed the first "Ace Ventura" movie. Oedekerk directed the second one. Need I say more?
The real Adams is to be admired for his devotion to treating patients as people rather than diseases. The film has a number of worthy messages about the state of the modern medical business with HMOs and managed care. The "doctors are not gods" theme will resonate with a number of people, but it's so poorly produced that no one will care.
(Michael Redman has written this column for over 23 years. After being inundated with Y2K information, he thinks that Kevin Costner's "The Postman" might have found a bigger audience had it been released late this year<EMAIL_ADDRESS>will reach him...probably.)

Arsenal fans fume at ex-Leeds star for what he did to Nicolas Pepe during Ivory Coast match
The Arsenal winger played in the Ivory Coast's win over Niger
by Andy HaNicolas Pepe put his Arsenal struggles to one side to help Ivory Coast beat Niger in their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Sunday.
The Elephants were 1-0 winners in Abidjan thanks to a second half penalty from AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie.
The spot-kick was the second of the game for the home side, after former Leeds United and Bournemouth winger Max Gradel missed a penalty in the first half.
Pepe won the penalty and asked to take it, but Gradel won the argument with his teammate. The 31-year-old then saw his effort saved by Niger goalkeeper Kassaly Daouda.
Gradel saw his blushes spared with Kessie's eventual winner, but some Arsenal fans took to social media to voice their anger that Pepe wasn't rewarded for winning the penalty.
One wrote: 'Who made Max Gradel captain of a team and allowed him to take a pen over Pepe deadball King? Disgrace.'
Pepe has struggled for consistency since his club record £72m transfer from Lille in the summer, and Arsenal head coach Unai Emery has left the 24-year-old out of the line-up for the last two Premier League matches.
Emery has admitted that Pepe’s adaptation to English football has been slower than he anticipated and claims the winger must step up his game if he is to win his place back in the side.
"He just needs time, and to be demanding of himself," Emery told Sky Sports after the 1-1 draw against Wolves.
"We are with him, working individually with him and showing him videos of where he can improve.
"The intensity of the game and the opponents in England demands a lot of you. He has to adapt to that, and we have to help him so that he can keep taking steps forward.
"His process of adapting to the team is positive, but a little slower than what we wanted. We have to be patient as well as demanding and what’s more, we have to ensure that he takes responsibility himself.
"He is not quite at the level yet to be able to play in every game. I believe, and I have always believed, that he needs to play in order to reach that level, but obviously there are also games when other players deserve to play. I use the players who I think are going to help us most in each moment.
"But we bought Pepe knowing that the first year would be difficult, that it would be a year of adaptation. We want that to happen as quickly as possible, but we are seeing that we have to have patience."

1 Origin of Agile
Demand risk. Delivery risk.
You get feedback on your process, and adapt according to the feedback.
Everything was waterfall approach in the past.
Customer demands are moving.
2 Agile Manifesto
Companies were too focussed on documenting and planning. A document of 68 words drove the new paradigm. It's called the Agile Manifesto.
3 What is scrum?
Breaking work down in to smaller units of work.
Split the product, split the team, split the time.
Scrum is a framework, not a methodology.
4 The Product Owner
Malik is the product owner and knows the problem. We have stakeholders. Malik wants the stakeholders to love the product. He will create user stories. Users will be able to search for homes. Malik will get bombarded with lots of ideas. He can add these to the backlog. All these ideas can get unmanageable in the backlog. Malik passes the stories on to the development team. Malik has to decide what to say no to. PO decides what is in and what is out. He doesn't do this alone, he does it with a scrum team. The dev team should have access to the stakeholders if they need it.
The PO maximises the value of the product. He prioritises the stories. Malik needs to know the value of the stories. Some are critical, while some are nice to have. Some are huge and some are small. Build the small ones with high value first. Malik might have to guess some of this.
How does the product owner build the backlog? It's hard.
4.1 Create a backlog
Things start with ideas and hypothesis. Does a problem exist? Will this add value to users? Can we solve this problem? It needs to be usable.
Bring the right people in to the room. The PO can't do this by themselves. PO looks after value. Engineering lead looks after feasible. UX lead on usable.
4.2 Product Backlog
An in order (prioritized) list of features, sometimes written as a story. It can include defects, spikes, and technical (upgrade).
4.3 Characteristics of a good product backlog
This can get messy quickly. You should have a schedule to tidy the backlog.
D - detail appropriately E - emergent E - estimated P - prioritized
Items are not always at the same level of detail. Lots of detail should be at the top of the backlog. This happens in a just-in-time fashion. We shouldn't give a lot of detail to stories that are far away in time, as things could change. This is the emergent. Being continously being updated as information becomes available.
Estimated - size estimate to the effort required.
Prioritized - it should be prioritized, especially the items at the top.
4.4 Grooming the Backlog
Adding, deleting and refining the backlog. Estimating. Prioritizing.
Who does this?
It's a team effort by scrum team. And stakeholders. The PO is the grooming decision making. It leads to a good dialogue between the team, when it is a team effort. 5-10% time should be given to PO grooming activities.
4.5 How to Write good Stories
3c's.
- Card - small with limited space. Has a couple of sentences for later discussions. As a <user> I want <something> so that <reason>.
- Conversation - have a convo to flesh out the details (kick-off)?
- Confirmation - acceptance criteria - definition of done? (Tests related).
Stories are not the only place for requirements. Visual design, a chart, or any other documentation. They should be easy to refine.
They can be at different levels of granuality. Large stories are epics. This becomes a container for more stories. Stories fit in to a sprint. Tasks can fit in to a story. Tasks are smaller than stories. PO doesn't really care about a task as it is not delivered.
It's good to agree when a story is ready to be brought forward - with a definition of done.
4.6 Definition of Ready
- Independent
- Negotiable
- Valuable
- Estimable
- Small
- Testable
(INVEST).
5 Role of Scrum Master
Focussed on helping everyone embrace the scrum principles. They teach the team to solve their own problems. Servant leader, what can I do to help you be more effective?
- coach
- servant leader
- inteference
- impediments
- change agent
What skills should they have?
- knowledgable
- patient
- protective
- collaborative
- transparent
A talented scrum master could act as a developer at the same time. They can also be the product owner. This is not a great move at all.
6 Preparing for Sprint Planning
6.1 Checklist
- groomed backlog - good stories
- up to date product roadmap
- definition of done
- sprint goal
6.2 Pre-planning Meeting
We have a category of Epics, Almost ready PBIs, and ready PBIs. What is the length of each sprint? 1 - 4 weeks. Malik needs to walk through the backlog items. Do an initual estimation for each story in the backlog, due for the sprint.
6.2.1 Silent estimation
- get team
- explain items
- ask team to sort cards into line smallest effort at top
- they do this quietly
- the cards stop moving around eventually
- use fibonacci sequence
- group items of similar size
- then assign the story points to each fibonacci number
- stories that move a lot can have more discussion
The PO is not involved in story estimation.
A story point is relative effort.
6.3 Definition of Done
Checklist of types of work to complete before it is shippable.
- Functionality
- Design
- Build
- Integration
- Testing
- Documentation
These need breaking down further. This is the responsibility of the development team.
6.4 Sprint Goal
Clear focus of business value. The product owner should attend sprint planning with a goal. However, this can be reviewed at sprint planning. There is an agreement not to change the goal during the sprint. We can always embrace change, but not during a sprint as this is too disruptive. As we invest in the goal, there is greater loss of investment if the goal changes.
However, sometimes it is ok to abandon the sprint.
Then you have to decide what to do with the next sprint in terms of dates.

We see an even distribution of varying wind speeds across all latitudes.
Generally, wind speeds are found between 0 to 10mph.
We do see a few latitudes in the northern hemisphere with higher wind speeds, but not enough to draw a definite correlation between the two.

Collection
or Iterable
in vararg method calls.
For example, in the following method:
<T> boolean contains(T needle, T... haystack) {...}
a call like
if(contains("item", listOfStrings)) {...}
looks suspicious as the list will be wrapped into a single element array. Such code can be successfully compiled and will likely run without exceptions, but it's probably used by mistake.

Previous: Reinitializing an Instance, Up: Reinitializing an Instance
Methods for reinitialize-instance may be defined to specify actions to be taken when an instance is updated. If only after methods for reinitialize-instance are defined, they will be run after the system-supplied primary method for initialization and therefore will not interfere with the default behavior of reinitialize-instance.
Methods for shared-initialize may be defined to customize class redefinition. For more information, see shared-initialize.

%%Rank minimization based source-separation in time-jittered 2D ocean-bottom marine acquisition % % This application is available only in the software release for members of SINBAD consortium. % % This software release includes a demonstration of the 2D time-jittered (or blended) marine % acquisition scheme, and a deblending framework based on rank minimization. % % Author: Rajiv Kumar<EMAIL_ADDRESS>% % Date: January, 2015
Downloading & Dependencies
The code can be found in the SLIM sofware release under /applications/Acquisition/2DTimeJitteredOBS-LR.
The code has been tested with Matlab R2013a and do not requires the Parallel Computing Toolbox.
This code uses the following packages, also found in the tools part of the SLIM software release.
- utilities/SPOT - object oriented framework for matrix-free linear algebra.
- utilities/pSPOT - parallel extension of SPOT.
- utilities/SegyMAT - Matlab/Octave toolbox for reading and writing SEG-Y formatted files.
- transforms/CurveLab-2.1.2-SLIM - CurveLab with SLIMs FFT Functions + other.
- tools/solvers/GenSPGL1 - Generalized SPGL1.
Running & Parallelism
All the examples and results are produced by the scripts found in this software release under applications/Acquisition/2DTimeJitteredOBS-LR/examples/. Start matlab from applications/Acquisition/2DTimeJitteredOBS-LR to add the appropriate paths.
To run the scripts follow the instructions in the README file enclosed with the code. The scripts can be only run in serial mode.
Functions
The functions specific to this package can be found in the misc_funcs directory.
Examples and results
Examples and results are shown here. Scripts to reproduce the results can be found under /applications/Acquisition/2DTimeJitteredOBS-LR/example.

If you join this research study we will ask you to share your mole measurements collected using Mole Mapper. You will:
- Take pictures of your moles with the smartphone camera
- Map them to zones on the Mole Mapper body map
- Measure their size relative to a reference object like a coin photographed next to the mole.
We will prompt you to re-measure your moles each month and send your updated data
along with any information about new moles and whether you had any moles removed. If
you have had a mole removed in a given month, we will ask you to take a photo and
measurement of the biopsy site.
You can track your moles at your convenience, track more or fewer moles or stop
sharing your mole measurements at any time.


Here's the easy way to settle your common expenses with dear room mates.
The result will be the minimized net transaction required among you guys.
