This blocks models various types of filters:
low pass, high pass, band pass, and band stop filters
using various filter characteristics:
CriticalDamping, Bessel, Butterworth, Chebyshev Type I filters
By default, a filter block is initialized in steady-state, in order to avoid unwanted oscillations at the beginning. In special cases, it might be useful to select one of the other initialization options under tab "Advanced".
Typical frequency responses for the 4 supported low pass filter types are shown in the next figure:
The step responses of the same low pass filters are shown in the next figure, starting from a steady state initial filter with initial input = 0.2:
Obviously, the frequency responses give a somewhat wrong impression of the filter characteristics: Although Butterworth and Chebyshev filters have a significantly steeper magnitude as the CriticalDamping and Bessel filters, the step responses of the latter ones are much better. This means for example, that a CriticalDamping or a Bessel filter should be selected, if a filter is mainly used to make a non-linear inverse model realizable.
Typical frequency responses for the 4 supported high pass filter types are shown in the next figure:
The corresponding step responses of these high pass filters are shown in the next figure:
All filters are available in normalized (default) and non-normalized form. In the normalized form, the amplitude of the filter transfer function at the cut-off frequency f_cut is -3 dB (= 10^(-3/20) = 0.70794..). Note, when comparing the filters of this function with other software systems, the setting of "normalized" has to be selected appropriately. For example, the signal processing toolbox of MATLAB provides the filters in non-normalized form and therefore a comparison makes only sense, if normalized = false is set. A normalized filter is usually better suited for applications, since filters of different orders are "comparable", whereas non-normalized filters usually require to adapt the cut-off frequency, when the order of the filter is changed. See a comparison of "normalized" and "non-normalized" filters at hand of CriticalDamping filters of order 1,2,3:
The filters are implemented in the following, reliable way:
// second order block with eigen values: a +/- jb der(x1) = a*x1 - b*x2 + (a^2 + b^2)/b*u; der(x2) = b*x1 + a*x2; y = x2;The dc-gain from the input to the output of this block is one and the selected states are in the order of the input (if "u" is in the order of "one", then the states are also in the order of "one"). In the "Advanced" tab, a "nominal" value for the input "u" can be given. If appropriately selected, the states are in the order of "one" and then step-size control is always appropriate.
The development of this block was partially funded by BMBF within the ITEA2 EUROSYSLIB project.

If Germany is now against this, which appears to be the case, it pretty much means, well, game over.
Add the uncerainty over the unwind of the Europe rescue "gamechanger" as one of the more naive CNBC anchors said yesterday, and Monday is now guaranteed to be a bloodbath.

Welcone to Node-Play
This is fun place where we will try to create the applications with fun. These application may be games or some pocs, or some simple applications. Want to develop this as community where requirements can be shared and we can have a poc (proof of concept) for same. As of now would like to keep scope upto nodeJS related solutions only.
If you want to contribute please feel free to share the ideas or concepts where you want to work or need us to look into.
Enjoy till we add some more...

Math: formal grammars for processing natural language
Engineering: computer systems that understand NL input and/or generate NL output
Understanding (NLU)
Generation (NLG)
If you study the psychological processes involved when you read or write or speak natural language, then your courses and graduate studies will likely be in the Psychology or Neuroscience department.
If you study linguistics, most of your courses will be in the English department, or whatever your native language is.
If you study the engineering of NLP systems most of your classes will be in a computer science department and you will think of your job as kind of like building compilers for natural language.
If you study the grammars that are useful of NLP your classes will be in the mathematics department and you will think of your job as designing formal logic grammars and using those to generate formal logical proofs of theorems in natural language.
You will learn about all of these perspectives on NLP in this lecture. But you will concentrate most of your effort on the engineering of NLP systems. In my opinion, if you can build an NLP system, you will have a far deeper understanding of the psychology and This is the most practical and aproachable aspect of NLP. You will soon learn how to build a “recipe” of computer instructions (python code) to read, understand, and generate natural language text. Hopefully I will be able to infect you with my fascination for the magic of machines that can interact with us in our own language so well that we can hardly tell they are not human. It’s scary and inspiring at the same time.
Let’s explore deep into the uncanny valley together.
The diagram here was sketched by Mashiro Mori in 1970, just as personal computers were being developed and systems like conversational AI programs like ELIZA were becoming popular.
Systems that look like a human body, but don’t act like them probably trigger an emotional response similar to what you experience when you see a dead body (corpse) or see a zombie movie. We have probably evolved to detect the subtle behavioral cues of sickness or mental illness. This same discomfort with humanoid robots can also sometimes be triggered by chatbots, estpecially if the bot is given a voice that sounds relatively human. See if you can sense your own creepiness as you have a conversation with Alexa or Google Assistant. Those engineers have worked very hard to ensure that you don’t get creeped out.  This is the creepiness of hearing some subtle cues in the voice that is unnatural, while at the same time imagining that it is a human mind at work.

3: Monty Hall Fallacy
Real life applications:
you suspect a patient has one of 3 genes that could cause a disease and you plan to treat based on that one genetic abnormality, then another doctor does a test that confirms the patient does not have one of the others. Should you change your treatment? (must assume that only 1 Gene is present otherwise the abnormality would be greater and the cause obvious, like XOR condition).

The subselect block is used in the 'SELECT'-section of the
'SELECT' block.
It symbolises the subquery structure.
All the other blocks, like tables, functions and operators are plugged in it.
It also can be mutated.
If you want to learn more about how to mutate the block please, see 'Functionality'.
The not mutated subselect block is divided in two sections. The 'SELECT'-section and the 'WHERE'-section.
If you want to leran more about the sections please take a look at the 'SELECT' block.
This block also changes the colour, to symbolize the types used in SQL.
To mutate the block, you click on the
star-icon and a new workspace appears.
In this workspace you can drop blocks into an 'ADD'-block to expand the select-block.
So for each droped block one new input appears. Like you see in the picture above.
If you want to reduce the number of inputs, you click on the star icon and pull the blocks out of the 'ADD' block.
The blocks in this workspace are the SQL clauses 'GROUP BY',
GROUP BY' with 'HAVING,
'ORDER BY', 'LIMIT' and an 'ALIAS' .
In the section 'Clauses' you will learn more about them.
In the mutator workspace there are five blocks, four of them symbolising the clauses, 'GROUP BY',GROUP BY' with 'HAVING, 'ORDER BY' and 'LIMIT', in SQL and one symbolises the 'ALIAS'. Notice that the first three clauses could be used with 'LIMIT' and 'ALIAS' but not with each other. 'LIMIT' and 'ALIAS' can also be used alone.
The 'ALIAS' textfield is used if you want to give this subselect in the result a special name. To use the name later there is a alias variable.
The 'GROUP BY' input is used if you use a groupfunction.
If you use 'GROUP BY' be sure to use the all tables in the group, which you used in the select.
Notice that only the tables should be used, which are not in a groupfunction.
You can use this clause with the 'LIMIT' clause
The 'GROUP BY' with 'HAVING' input is used if you use a groupfunction and want to requiere the order.
If you use 'GROUP BY' be sure to use the all tables in the group, which you used in the select.
Notice that only the tables should be used which are not in a groupfunction.
In the 'HAVING' input you need to use a
compare operator.
You can use this clause with the 'LIMIT' clause
The 'ORDER BY' input is used if you want to order your result after a specific order.

--- layout: post title: "Mysterious fungus spreading rampantly At US Hospital Covid Ward: CDC" subtitle: "Candida auris has now been documented in more than 30 countries, with some 1,500 US cases reported to the CDC as of October 31, 2020." date: 2021-01-09 18:32:13 +0530 background: '/assets/images/Health.jpg' published: true categories: [ Health ] tags: [ health, fungus, mysterious, deadly, rampantly, covid, cdc, hospital ] ---
Dozens of people being treated for Covid-19 at a Florida hospital last summer became additionally infected with a mysterious, often deadly fungus called Candida auris, a US government study said Friday
The multidrug-resistant yeast was first identified in Japan in 2009 and has been a top priority for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in recent years because of its increasing global spread.
C. auris is associated with up to 40 percent in-hospital mortality and is usually caught inside healthcare settings, especially when people have feeding or breathing tubes, or catheters placed in large veins.
"Mobile computers and medical equipment were not always disinfected between uses, medical supplies (e.g., oxygen tubing and gauze) were stored in open bins," the CDC report said.
It added that hospital staff, possibly out of fear of the coronavirus, were wearing multiple layers of personal protective equipment (PPE), which is not recommended and in fact heightens the risk of microbe transmission.
There were also instances of extended PPE use and re-use.
After the hospital removed supplies from hallways, enhanced cleaning and disinfection practices, and improved practices around PPE use, no further C. auris was detected on subsequent surveys.
The CDC says the fungus can spread in healthcare settings "through contact with contaminated environmental surfaces or equipment, or from person to person."


MANUFACTURING CONSENT: NOAM CHOMSKY AND THE MEDIA A film review by Gareth Rees Copyright 1993 Gareth Rees
Directors: Mark Achbar & Peter Wintonick Release: Canada 1992 Length: 165 mins
The media, Chomsky tells us, whether by deliberate intent or through the effect of the power structure of our society, deceives us and diverts our attention from the issues that matter. In a democratic society, where people's actions cannot be directly controlled, it becomes a function of the media to control what people think and to make sure that they do not want to change the status quo. In order for this to work, people must not only be misinformed, but they must also feel that it does not matter that they are being misinformed, that some information is too sensitive to be made public, that there is nothing that one ordinary person can do about this misinformation. Chomsky is trying to challenge our apathy, trying to make us think about the way our opinions and actions are shaped.
Directors Peter Wintonick and Mark Achbar plunge into the awkward situation of portraying a man who has attacked the very techniques they use to present him with, it seems, hardly a second thought. Chomsky stands up on stage to argue his case, but the directors cut and intercut him with pictures, graphics, visual metaphor and "re-contextualisation," until the focus and force of his argument is lost among the videobabble. A mention of an article being cut by the New York Times inspires a scene in which a group of surgeons perform a dissection on a page of newsprint, and the irony is that this is exactly what is being done to Chomsky.
It's possible that I'm just not media-literate enough to appreciate the film, that I'm not prepared for the thirty-second sound-bite, but then neither I think is Chomsky. I kept wanting to hear what he has to say, not what the directors think I should hear.
This is not to say that the film does not have some brilliantly effective moments. A section on the Indonesian invasion and occupation of East Timor (with the complicity of the United States and other western governments) supports Chomsky with some of the detailed evidence on which his argument depends; a section on Chomsky's defence of the right to free speech of a holocaust revisionist demonstrates more clearly than anything else in the film the extent to which our thinking on important issues can become controlled and inflexible.
What saves the film is Noam Chomsky, whose genius shines through everything his opponents or the directors can throw at him.

exp
number ⇒ result
expt
base-number power-number ⇒ result
number—a number.
base-number—a number.
power-number—a number.
result—a number.
exp and expt perform exponentiation.
exp returns e raised to the power number, where e is the base of the natural logarithms. exp has no branch cut.
expt returns base-number raised to the power power-number. If the base-number is a rational and power-number is an integer, the calculation is exact and the result will be of type rational; otherwise a floating-point approximation might result.
For expt of a complex rational to an integer power, the calculation must be exact and the result is of type (or rational (complex rational)).
The result of expt can be a complex, even when neither argument is a complex, if base-number is negative and power-number is not an integer. The result is always the principal complex value. For example, (expt -8 1/3) is not permitted to return -2, even though -2 is one of the cube roots of -8. The principal cube root is a complex approximately equal to #C(1.0 1.73205), not -2.
expt is defined as b^x = e^x log b\/. This defines the principal values precisely. The range of expt is the entire complex plane. Regarded as a function of x, with b fixed, there is no branch cut. Regarded as a function of b, with x fixed, there is in general a branch cut along the negative real axis, continuous with quadrant II. The domain excludes the origin. By definition, 0^0=1. If b=0 and the real part of x is strictly positive, then b^x=0. For all other values of x, 0^x is an error.
When power-number is an integer 0, then the result is always the value one in the type of base-number, even if the base-number is zero (of any type). That is:
(expt x 0) ≡ (coerce 1 (type-of x))
If power-number is a zero of any other type, then the result is also the value one, in the type of the arguments after the application of the contagion rules in Contagion in Numeric Operations, with one exception: the consequences are undefined if base-number is zero when power-number is zero and not of type integer.
(exp 0) ⇒ 1.0 (exp 1) ⇒ 2.718282 (exp (log 5)) ⇒ 5.0 (expt 2 8) ⇒ 256 (expt 4 .5) ⇒ 2.0 (expt #c(0 1) 2) ⇒ -1 (expt #c(2 2) 3) ⇒ #C(-16 16) (expt #c(2 2) 4) ⇒ -64
log, Rule of Float Substitutability
Implementations of expt are permitted to use different algorithms for the cases of a power-number of type rational and a power-number of type float.
Note that by the following logic, (sqrt (expt x 3)) is not equivalent to (expt x 3/2).
(setq x (exp (/ (* 2 pi #c(0 1)) 3))) ;exp(2.pi.i/3) (expt x 3) ⇒ 1 ;except for round-off error (sqrt (expt x 3)) ⇒ 1 ;except for round-off error (expt x 3/2) ⇒ -1 ;except for round-off error

ZipArchive::setPassword
(PHP 5 >= 5.6.0, PHP 7, PECL zip >= 1.12.4)
ZipArchive::setPassword — Set the password for the active archive
说明
public bool ZipArchive::setPassword ( string $password )
Sets the password for the active archive.
参数
password
The password to be used for the archive.
返回值
成功时返回 TRUE，或者在失败时返回 FALSE。
注释
Note:
This function only sets the password to be used to decompress the archive;
it does not turn a non-password-protected ZipArchive into a
password-protected ZipArchive.
User Contributed Notes 4 notes
===============================================================================
Wouldn't it make sense for this method to be named ZipArchive::usePassword,
instead? There seems to be a lot of people thinking that its name, currently
(ZipArchive::setPassword), is for applying a password. I think nomenclature
should certainly be up for discussion on this method.
===============================================================================
It seems that this function supports only decryption of password protected
archives (see changelog: http://pecl.php.net/package-changelog.php?package=zip
). Creation of password protected archives is not supported (they will be
created simply as non-protected archives).
Example code for extraction of files from password protected ZIP archives:
open("test.zip");
if ($zip_status === true)
{
if ($zip->setPassword("MySecretPassword"))
{
if (!$zip->extractTo(__DIR__))
echo "Extraction failed (wrong password?)";
}
$zip->close();
}
else
{
die("Failed opening archive: ". @$zip->getStatusString() . " (code: ".
$zip_status .")");
}
?>
===============================================================================
As noted earlier the method does not actually set a password. It enters the
password to allow decryption of the archive for reading.
It does not:
1) create an encrypted archive
2) allow the addition of encrypted files to the archive
3) read AES256 encryption/compression
4) throw catchable errors use $zip->getStatusString()
Hopefully someone will get around to fixing the doc to reflect all of this.
===============================================================================
$zip = new ZipArchive();
$code = $zip->open('myzip.zip', ZipArchive::CREATE | ZipArchive::OVERWRITE);
if ($code === true)
echo 'zip opened
';
else
echo $code.'
';
$zip->addFile('somefile');
$code = $zip->setPassword('secret');
if ($code === true)
echo 'password set
';
else
echo $code.'
';
$code = $zip->close();
if ($code === true)
echo 'closed
';
else
echo $code.'
';
echo 'done
';
this prints:
zip opened
password set
closed
done
on the filesystem, the myzip.zip is created with somefile inside but the zip
file is not password protected.


ASYLUM CAMP ABIDJAN FROM:NDIDI UWOMA Dear Sir, CONFIDENTIAL, I am NDIDI UWOMA the only son of late former Director of finance, CHIEF BENARD UWOMA Sierra-Leone diamond and mining corporation.I must confess my agitation is real, and my words is my bond, in this proposal. My late father diverted this money meant for purchase of ammunition, for my country, during the peak of disastrous civil war in my country, now he has deposited the money with a Security Firm in one sealed box here in Abidjan, where I am residing under political asylum with my younger sister PRECIOUS . Now the war in my country is over with the help of ECOMOG soldiers, the present government of Sierra Leone has revoked the passport of all officers who served under the former regime and now ask countries to expel such person at the same time freeze their account and confiscate their assets, it is on this note that I am contacting you. My main reason of contacting you to please come accept to take up the responsibilities of my late father's business foreign parner in the Security Firm and claim the box.Be informed that my late father deposited the box and registered it as containing a Photographic Equipements belonging to his foreign partner that is why it is note possible for us to make the claims ourselfs and he did it as such to prevent them from knowing the box contains money so note that it is only you and I knows that the content of the box is money and please do not let the security firm know for security reasons.All I need from you is to furnish me with your personal details 1) Your full name 2) Telephone/Fax number 3) Home address or office These requirements are to be submitted to the Security Firm as my late father's foreign business partner who will be coming for the claims of the box with the key as I have contacted the Security Firm once where the deposit was made by my late father and establish a relationship with them but the told me in confident that the box will not be released to me nor any other person unless my late father's foreign partner whom the deposit was made. I am compensating you with 20% of the total amount. Now all my hope is banked on you and I really want to invest this money in your country, were their is stability of Government, political and economic welfare.  My late father CHIEF BENARD UWOMA gave me the photocopies of the certificate of deposit issued to him by the Security Firm on the date of deposit, so I can send you the copies for you to be clarified because, I do not expose my self to anybody I see, I believe that you are able to keep this transaction secret for me because this money is the hope of my life, it is important. Please respond to me immediately after you must have gone through my message, Feel free and make it urgent. Please try and negotiate for me some profitable bluechip investment opportunities which is risky free which I can invest with this money as soon as it 's confirmed in your position and a good university where I and my sister will further our education as soon as we arrives to your country while you take care of the ivesment till when we are expose to the business world. Personally I am interested in estate management and hotel business, please advise me. Thanks and God bless Best regards NDIDI/PRECIOUS UWOMA. ________________________________________ Tutti i concerti da non perdere! http://musica.jumpy.it/2003jm_m_concerti.asp

Saudi Aramco IPO Book-Building Period To Begin Amid Bearish Forecasts
by Robert BoslegoSummary
- IPO book-building period begins November 17th, with the IPO to be priced on December 5th.
- OPEC's outlook for demand for its oil to drop another 1.1 million barrels per day in 2020.
- US production to capture 85% of global production growth in the 2020s.
- IEA foresees global oil demand peaking in the mid-to-late 2020s.
- Saudi Aramco's prospects are dim, and investors' interest in E&P companies has waned.
After years of delays waiting for the right timing to launch the Saudi Aramco (ARMCO) IPO, the IPO offer period or book-building period is scheduled for November 17 to December 4 for institutional investors and from November 17 to November 28 for individual investors. The IPO will be priced on December 5th, the same day as OPEC's meeting. To say that now is the optimal timing would be a stretch.
OPEC just released its Monthly Oil Market Report (MOMR) for November, and the projected “call” (demand) for OPEC oil in 2020 is 29.58 million barrels per day (mmbd), off 1.1 mmbd from the 2019 level. And 2019 was down 0.9 mmbd from 2018.
But during the first half of 2020, demand for OPEC oil is expected to average just 29.0 mmbd. OPEC reported that October production averaged 29.650 mmbd given the rebound in production by Aramco. And so, if the cartel wants to prevent a large stock build in the first half of 2020, that means additional cutbacks.
Realistically, the burden for the cutbacks will fall upon Saudi Arabia. With production at 9.890 mmbd, that implies an Aramco cut to the low 9s.
OPEC Secretary General Mohammad Barkindo said on Wednesday that there would likely be downward revisions of supply going into 2020, especially from U.S. shale. However, on Thursday, the Department of Energy reported that U.S. crude production rose by 200,000 b/d to a record 12.8 mmbd.
Source: OPEC.
Venezuela increased its production by 42,000 b/d in October, according to OPEC’s monthly report, reversing the long downward slide. PDVSA has reportedly budgeted for a 600,000 b/d increase in 2020. If it can manage to increase production by that amount, it would put further stress on OPEC, and Saudi Aramco in particular.
Peak Oil Demand
Adding to the timing problem for the IPO, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has released its World Energy Outlook for 2019. It predicts “global growth in oil demand slows markedly post-2025 before flattening out in the 2030s.”
Even worse for Aramco, the IEA predicts that 85 percent of crude oil production growth will come from the United States until 2030. The company’s market share is therefore projected to drop over the period until peak oil demand is reached.
Conclusions
Long-term market expectations for crude oil are relatively soft. Furthermore, investor interest and sentiment in oil production companies have waned as peak oil demand draws closer and climate change priorities drive the world to transition to renewable fuel sources.
Now is not good timing for the Aramco IPO. But it might be better than a year from now.

# Overview
Visual illusions are fascinating phenomena that have been used and studied by artists and scientists for centuries, leading to important discoveries about how conscious perception is generated by the brain. Instead of crafting them by hand, Pyllusion offers a framework to manipulate and generate illusions in a systematic way.
The parametric approach implemented in this software proposes to describe illusions using a set of parameters, such as for instance the difference and illusion strength. These two parameters can be modulated to independently impact either the objective difference of the core components of the illusion (e.g., the difference between the two segments in the [Müller-Lyer](#müller-lyer-illusion-illusion) illusion) or the intensity of the illusion effect (e.g., the angle of the “distractors” arrows).
Describing illusions using a set of parameters aims at fostering reproducible science, allowing neuroscientists to easily report, generate and manipulate similar stimuli regardless of the display format and software.

## Features
### Delboeuf Illusion
The [Delboeuf illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delboeuf_illusion) is an optical illusion of relative size perception, where circles of identical size appear as different because of their surrounding context. The illusion was named for the Belgian philosopher, mathematician, experimental psychologist, hypnotist, and psychophysicist Joseph Remi Leopold Delboeuf (1831–1896), who created it in 1865.
``` python import pyllusion as ill
parameters = ill.delboeuf_parameters(illusion_strength=3) ill.delboeuf_image(parameters) ```
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_delboeuf1.png)
### Ebbinghaus Illusion
The [Ebbinghaus illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebbinghaus_illusion) is an optical illusion of relative size perception, where circles of identical size appear as different because of their surrounding context (the right red circle appears as smaller). The illusion was named after its creator the German psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus (1850–1909), though it got popularized by Edward B. Titchener in a 1901 textbook of experimental psychology.
` python
parameters = ill.ebbinghaus_parameters(illusion_strength=2)
ill.ebbinghaus_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_ebbinghaus1.png)
### Müller-Lyer illusion Illusion
The [Müller-Lyer illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%BCller-Lyer_illusion) is an optical illusion causing the participant to perceive two segments as being of different length depending on the shape of the arrows. The illusion was named after its creator the erman sociologist Franz Carl Müller-Lyer (1857–1916) in 1889.
` python
parameters = ill.mullerlyer_parameters(illusion_strength=30)
ill.mullerlyer_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_mullerlyer1.png)
### Ponzo Illusion
The [Ponzo illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponzo_illusion) is an optical illusion of relative size perception, where horizontal lines of identical size appear as different because of their surrounding context (the top line appear as longer, as it is interepreted as being in the distance). The illusion was named after its creator the Italian psychologist Mario Ponzo (1882–1960) in 1911, who suggested that the human mind judges an object’s size based on its background.
` python
parameters = ill.ponzo_parameters(illusion_strength=20)
ill.ponzo_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_ponzo1.png)
### Vertical–horizontal Illusion
The [vertical–horizontal illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical%E2%80%93horizontal_illusion) illustrates the tendency for observers to overestimate the length of a vertical line relative to a horizontal line of the same length (Shipley et al., 1949).
` python
parameters = ill.verticalhorizontal_parameters(illusion_strength=90)
ill.verticalhorizontal_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_verticalhorizontal1.png)
### Zöllner Illusion
The [Zöllner illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z%C3%B6llner_illusion) is an optical illusion, where horizontal lines are perceived as not parallel because of their background. It is named after its discoverer, the German astrophysicist Johann Karl Friedrich Zöllner in 1860.
` python
parameters = ill.zollner_parameters(illusion_strength=75)
ill.zollner_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_zollner1.png)
### Rod and Frame Illusion
The [Rod and frame illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_and_frame_test#Rod_and_frame_illusion) is an optical illusion causing the participant to perceive the rod to be oriented congruent with the orientation of the frame.
` python
parameters = ill.rodframe_parameters(illusion_strength=11)
ill.rodframe_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_rodframe1.png)
### Poggendorff Illusion
The [Poggendorff illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poggendorff_illusion) is an optical illusion that involves the misperception of the position of one segment of a transverse line that has been interrupted by the contour of an intervening structure. It is named after Johann Christian Poggendorff who discovered in Zöllner’s illusion after 1860. The magnitude of the illusion depends on the properties of the obscuring pattern and the nature of its borders.
` python
parameters = ill.poggendorff_parameters(illusion_strength=-50)
ill.poggendorff_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_poggendorff1.png)
### Simultaneous Contrast illusion
A neutral gray target will appear lighter or darker than it does in isolation when compared to, respectively, a dark gray or light gray target. [Simultaneous contrast](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_effect), identified by Michel Eugène Chevreul, refers to the manner in which the colors of two different objects affect each other.
In the image here, the two inner rectangles are exactly the same shade of grey, but the upper one appears to be a lighter grey than the lower one due to the background provided by the outer rectangles.
` python
parameters = ill.contrast_parameters(illusion_strength=-50)
ill.contrast_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_contrast1.png)
### White Illusion
[White’s illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White%27s_illusion) is a brightness illusion in which rectangles of the same grey color are perceived of different luminance depending on their background.
` python
parameters = ill.white_parameters(illusion_strength=100)
ill.white_image(parameters)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_white1.png)
<!– ### Chubb illusion –>
<!– The [Chubb illusion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chubb_illusion) is an optical illusion or error in visual perception in which the apparent contrast of an object varies substantially to most viewers depending on its relative contrast to the field on which it is displayed. –>

### Kanizsa Square
The Kanizsa Square is an [illusory contour](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illusory_contours) illusion. The Kanizsa square creates an illusion of depth, where the central figure i.e., the square appears to sit on a higher plane than the surrounding pacmen-like disc fragments. See [Keane et al., 2019](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6667222/).
TO DO (consider helping!)
### Autostereograms
[Autostereograms](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereogram) are images made of a pattern that is horizontally repeated (with slight variations) which, when watched with the appropriate focus, will generate an illusion of depth.
For instance, in the image below, the autostereogram automatically adds a guide (you can disable it by setting guide=False), the two red dots. Look at them and relax your eyes until you see a new red dot between them two. Then, try focusing on this new red dot until it gets very sharp and until your eyes stabilize. You should then be able to perceive the letters 3D as carved in the figure
It can take a bit of time to “get there”, but once you are used to it, it’s a mind-blowing experience 🤯
` python
ill.autostereogram(stimulus="3D", width=1600, height=900)
`
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_autostereogram1.png)
The function is highly customisable, and we can use a black and white image as a depth mask (in this case, the [picture of a skull](https://github.com/DominiqueMakowski/Pyllusion/docs/img/depthmask.png) that you will see as emerging from the background), and customise the pattern used by providing another function (here, the image_circles() function to which we can provide additional arguments like blackwhite, the number of circles n, their size range and their transparency with alpha).
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/depthmask.png)
``` python ill.autostereogram(stimulus=”docs/img/depthmask.png”,
pattern=ill.image_circles, color=”blackwhite”, alpha=0.75, size_min=0.005, size_max=0.03, n=1000)
![](https://github.com/RealityBending/Pyllusion/blob/master/docs/img/README_autostereogram2.png)
### Transparency From Motion (TFM)
In visual perception, the [kinetic depth effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_depth_effect) refers to the phenomenon whereby the three-dimensional structural form of an object can be perceived when the object is moving (Wallach & O’Connell, 1953; [Mamassian & Wallace, 2010](https://jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx?articleid=2191769)). One of its derivative is the Transparency-From-Motion illusion, consisting in the superposition of two dot clouds moving in different directions that results in the perception of two transparent layers (See ; [Schütz, 2014](https://jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx?articleid=2193903); [Wexler et al., 2015](https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/112/48/14990.full.pdf); [Schütz & Mamassian, 2016](https://jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx?articleid=2548036) and <http://lab-perception.org/demo/p/tfm> for a demo).
``` python parameters = ill.motiontransparency_parameters(angle=45) images = ill.motiontransparency_images(parameters)
ill.images_to_gif(images, path=”Transparency_From_Motion.gif”, fps=parameters[“FPS”]) ```

Will Ferrell Stars Not As Drama Teacher We Want, But As Drama Teacher We Deserve in Cut SNL Sketch
by Halle KieferTeaching children can reward you with a sense of accomplishment, meaning, and purpose. And if that isn’t enough, you can also leverage the tiny amount of power you have to drive a group of theater dorks to the brink of insanity. In one of this week’s cut-for-time Saturday Night Live sketches, host Will Ferrell brings both kinds of drama to the students waiting to be cast in Bye Bye Birdie. It isn’t an easy job, since several of them either read as “such virgins” or have parents that are “the difficult kind of Christian.” Only Tammy has it all figured out: If you don’t care what role you get, you’ll get the best ones, every time. Also, Ferrell’s Mr. Keonig will absolutely have to pay the school district back to replace that office door, what with the spy holes he drilled through his comedy and tragedy masks.

TELLING LIES IN AMERICA
A Film Review by James Berardinelli
RATING: **1/2 OUT OF ****
United States, 1997 U.S. Release Date: 10/24/97 (limited) Running Length: 1:41 MPAA Classification: PG-13 (Profanity, mature themes) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: 2.35:1
Cast: Brad Renfro, Kevin Bacon, Calista Flockhart, Maximilian Schell, Paul Dooley Director: Guy Ferland Producers: Ben Myron, Fran Kuzui Screenplay: Joe Eszterhas Cinematography: Reynaldo Villalobos Music: Nicholas Pike U.S. Distributor: Banner Entertainment
It's said that every author, no matter how gory, grotesque, or sensationalistic their chosen genre, has a personal story to tell. In the case of Joe Eszterhas, one of Hollywood's highest-paid script writers (his credits include JAGGED EDGE, BASIC INSTINCT, and SHOWGIRLS), that tale is TELLING LIES IN AMERICA, a semi- autobiographical account of growing up as an immigrant in Cleveland during the early years of rock and roll. Eszterhas drafted the original screenplay for TELLING LIES about 15 years ago, and it looked like it would remain unproduced until his wife, Naomi, fell in love with the subject matter and pushed for Eszterhas to do a rewrite in order to get it into theaters. The result is director Guy Ferland's second feature (his first was THE BABYSITTER, which starred Alicia Silverstone) -- a movie that's vastly different from anything the writer has previously been involved with. TELLING LIES is simple, low-key, and, sadly, banal.
It's 1961 in Cleveland, and radio station WHK has a new rock and roll DJ. His name is Billy Magic (Kevin Bacon), and the teens love him. Billy has something of a checkered past -- he has been in four cities in the last five years -- but he always gets good ratings, so station managers are willing to take a chance on him. Inevitably, Billy starts looking for ways to supplement his income, and one of the most lucrative methods is to accept under-the-table payments from record producers in return for giving one of their songs extra play time.
Karchy Jonas (Brad Renfro), a Hungarian-born teenager living in the U.S., is one of Billy's biggest fans. In fact, in order to have his name read over the air as an entry into WHK's High School Hall of Fame, he forges dozens of his classmates' signatures on post cards he sends to the station. Eventually, Karchy gets a chance to meet Billy, and the two strike up a friendship. Billy, sensing a kindred spirit in his new pal, offers Karchy a job that includes changing records at the studio, helping out at sock hops, delivering money-filled envelopes, and lying to anyone who asks probing questions -- including the police.
While the main story focuses on the relationship between Billy and Karchy, and how this changes Karchy's perception of fame, fortune, and the American Dream, there are a couple of moderately-interesting subplots, each of which deserves more screen time than it is accorded. The first involves an underused Maximilian Schell as Karchy's father, Istvan. Istvan is studying to become an American citizen, and is suspicious of anything that could in any way jeopardize his chances -- including Karchy's friendship with Billy. Then there's the obligatory "first romance" thread, which has Karchy falling for a timid, pretty twentysomething woman (THE BIRDCAGE's Calista Flockhart) who seems destined to break his heart.
TELLING LIES possesses little to distinguish itself from numerous other period piece coming-of-age tales. All of the plot elements are familiar: immigrants struggling to assimilate into American society, the thrill of being recognized by someone important, the pain of falling for an older woman, and question of what constitutes friendship. We may not have previously witnessed this particular story with these characters, but we're well-acquainted with the general trajectory of the narrative. Additionally, the film's central theme, which deals with betrayal and its consequences, has the potential to be much more powerful than what's on screen. We never really experience Karchy's pain and disillusionment when he realizes that he has been seduced, bought, and played for a fool by the man he most admires.
TELLING LIES' one distinguishing characteristic is the level of acting. Kevin Bacon, as the smooth-talking, slick-as-oil DJ, is fantastic. This energetic performance ranks among the actor's best, and invigorates some of the film's less original sequences. Brad Renfro, who got his start in THE CLIENT before appearing opposite Bacon in SLEEPERS, holds his own as the shy, ostracized Karchy -- a lonely teenager who is trying to find meaning and acceptance in life. Renfro's portrayal rings true, and his scenes with Bacon mark TELLING LIES' best moments.
When writing TELLING LIES IN AMERICA, Eszterhas claims to have drawn upon many of his own experiences growing up in Cleveland as a Hungarian-born immigrant. Indeed, some of the vignettes have the ring of authenticity, but the overall plot is disappointingly generic. When compared to forceful coming-of-age tales like KING OF THE HILL and THIS BOY'S LIFE, TELLING LIES IN AMERICA finds itself in an unfavorable position. It's a sincere-yet-uninspired diversion, and not even two strong performances can elevate it to a higher level.

The totaln, offset, firstn, and nvalues parameters that are passed to the work function are useful for determining how much of the data has been processed and how much remains left to do. On the very first call to the work function firstn will be equal to offset + 1; the work function may need to perform various initialization tasks before starting to process the data. Similarly, firstn + nvalues - 1 will be equal to totaln on the last iteration, at which point the work function may need to perform some clean up operations before exiting for the last time. The work function can also force an early termination of the iterations by returning a status value = -1.
The narrays and iteratorCol.datatype arguments allow the work function to double check that the number of input arrays and their data types have the expected values. The iteratorCol.fptr and iteratorCol.colnum structure elements can be used if the work function needs to read or write the values of other keywords in the FITS file associated with the array. This should generally only be done during the initialization step or during the clean up step after the last set of data has been processed. Extra FITS file I/O during the main processing loop of the work function can seriously degrade the speed of the program.
If variable-length array columns are being processed, then the iterator will operate on one row of the table at a time. In this case the the repeat element in the interatorCol structure will be set equal to the number of elements in the current row that is being processed.
One important feature of the iterator is that the first element in each array that is passed to the work function gives the value that is used to represent null or undefined values in the array. The real data then begins with the second element of the array (i.e., array[1], not array[0]). If the first array element is equal to zero, then this indicates that all the array elements have defined values and there are no undefined values. If array[0] is not equal to zero, then this indicates that some of the data values are undefined and this value (array[0]) is used to represent them. In the case of output arrays (i.e., those arrays that will be written back to the FITS file by the iterator function after the work function exits) the work function must set the first array element to the desired null value if necessary, otherwise the first element should be set to zero to indicate that there are no null values in the output array. CFITSIO defines 2 values, FLOATNULLVALUE and DOUBLENULLVALUE, that can be used as default null values for float and double data types, respectively. In the case of character string data types, a null string is always used to represent undefined strings.
In some applications it may be necessary to recursively call the iterator function. An example of this is given by one of the example programs that is distributed with CFITSIO: it first calls a work function that writes out a 2D histogram image. That work function in turn calls another work function that reads the `X' and `Y' columns in a table to calculate the value of each 2D histogram image pixel. Graphically, the program structure can be described as:
driver --> iterator --> work1_fn --> iterator --> work2_fn
Finally, it should be noted that the table columns or image arrays that are passed to the work function do not all have to come from the same FITS file and instead may come from any combination of sources as long as they have the same length. The length of the first table column or image array is used by the iterator if they do not all have the same length.

The first time I took Salvia was a huge turning point in my life. It was the summer of 2002, I was with my then-partner Dave and our regular trip companion Iggy. We were coming down from a night of especially good ecstacy, and Dave made the suggestion that we round it off with some Salvia. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
Iggy went first. He'd done it once before, and as he exhaled he muttered 'I remember this.  Then it was my turn.
The part that I remember most clearly was the foul-tasting smoke that felt like it was tearing the back of my throat to shreds. I held it in, and held it, nothing was happening. I exhaled slowly, and the last thing I remember seeing was Dave's face, his eyes staring into mine and a smile on his lips. I felt safe.
The entire room melted like one of those crazy Winamp visualisations. Everything in my field of vision just dissolved and liquidised and started to swirl around each other. I started to panic, and as soon as I did the whole thing froze as it was. A soft, warm female voice came to me, a voice that I felt like I knew. I have come to believe that this was the voice of the plant. 'Don't worry,' she told me, 'It's supposed to happen like that.' I was filled for an instant with a kind of calm joy, then as far as I can remember I ceased to exist. I was not a person, I was not watching any of this happen, I was simply a part of it.
Crisscrossing lines appeared across the frozen image in front of me, marking out the shapes of interlocking jigsaw pieces. One by one they began to spin away, until all that remained was darkness. Pure, thick, tangiable blackness, but it was so very alive. What I saw next, I was not able to describe up until several years later during an especially pleasant journey on mushrooms. Dominating my field of vision was a huge Aum, shimmering and glowing in colours that don't even have a name. Gorgeous bright orbs orbited around it and I was one of them, and at the same time I was observing from a great distance away. At the time I had no idea what it was or how to interpret it, and when the trip was over that's the part that frightened me the most.
I was torn away from that place quite abruptly, and some version of reality started to take shape in front of me. And then another, and another. Different pictures, all seen as though through my own eyes flew through my field of vision; sitting in a field, sitting in a bedroom, sitting in some dark corner of a nightclub. I didn't recognise any of the scenes that I saw, but I knew that if I did not choose one and return to it then my life would be lost. This was not in any way frightening, but at this point my sense of self was starting to return and I remembered that I was alive, and that I was not yet ready to abandon the physical world.
The pieces of reality started to drift away, and once again I began to panic. I reached out and grabbed the closest one to me, and within an instant I found myself sitting on the floor of a room I did not recognise, clinging desperately to a man I did not know. I tried to ask him who he was but I couldn't remember how to speak. My entire memory had been erased, all I knew was that this man was to be trusted. I thought, for a few horrible seconds, that I has ended up in the wrong place.
As my memory started to return, I recognised the man as Dave and the surroundings as his bedroom. It seems I regained the power of laughter before the power of speech, and everything became immensely comical. At some point, Dave handed me a pen and paper to try and aid in my efforts to communicate, but the two repelled one another like two same magnets. Whatever was in my head clearly wasn't ready to be let out. The night drew to a close, Iggy left, some version of sleeping happened.
The next day the problems started. I couldn't stop wondering, what if I had ended up in the wrong place? What if the memories that returned to me were different for each of the different places I could have ended up in? It was on that day that I began to seriously question reality. It is only in the past year that I have felt comfortable enough to stop.
In retrospect, perhaps 10x extract was not the wisest way to take my first tentative steps into the world of shamanic herbs.

€85k worth of heroin and crack cocaine seized in separate Limerick incidents
by By Digital Desk staffGardaí have seized over €85,000 worth of drugs in two separate incidents in Limerick yesterday.
The heroin and crack cocaine were seized by gardaí and Henry St and Roxboro garda stations.
Following reports of suspicious activity at a public area on St Senan St, a subsequent garda search discovered €33,000 worth of suspected heroin and €14,000 of suspected crack cocaine.
Meanwhile, €38,500 worth of suspected heroin was seized in the Careys Road Park area
No arrests have been made and the investigations are ongoing, according to a garda spokesperson.
"Over €85,000 worth of suspected heroin and crack cocaine was taken off the streets yesterday in the Henry Street and Roxboro Road Districts," Superintendent Dermot O'Connor
"I would like to thank the community who continue to work with us and urge more people to report anything they feel is out of the ordinary, not just for drug use or drug dealing.”
