Bronze Globes
In 1998, Geo-F/X was hired by Datum3D of Boston to provide all the GIS data and calculations required to produce a perfectly scaled model of the earth. The model was going to be used to drive a multi-axis milling machine that would mill a series of pie-shaped slices of the earth out of plastic. Each slice was a 22.5 degree slice of one hemisphere. So a total of 16 slices were milled. These were then assembled by a sculptor into a globe 42" in diameter. The resulting armature was used to create a mold which was in turn used to cast a bronze earth, one hemisphere at a time. The two halves were then welded together along the equator.
The resulting bronze globe was then mounted on a pedestal and is on display at the Gottesman Hall of Planet Earth in the American Museum of Natural History in New York.
The patrons were so pleased with the result that they requested a similar globe of the moon.
Technical Details
- Both globes are 42" in diameter.
- The data was drawn from the GLOBE and TOPO30 projects (see how the projections were done here)
- The relief on the globes is exaggerated 22 times. The sculptor originally wanted no exaggeration despite Geo-F/X's warning that the earth would be smooth as a ping-pong ball without exaggeration. One slice was milled like that before the sculptor saw the true reality.
- In addition to the exaggeration, the oceans had to be dropped 500 feet in order to make the shorelines visible. Again, the sculptor had to have a sample milled before he believed it. Even so the coastline of Florida, for example, is hard to see.
- People are encouraged to touch the sculpture. One of the interesting consequences of this is that the mountains are being slowly worn down. The Himalaya, for example, since they are readily accessible just north of the equator are not nearly as sharply defined as they originally were. To see the difference if you visit the sculpture, bend down and touch the Andes in southern Chile. Much sharper!

Tom Merritt left Buzz Out Loud (BOL). I stopped listening to BOL years ago, but I still follow the "characters" that originally launched that show. Veronica Belmont left July 2007. She was the young, girl-next-door, geek's dream gf/bff, and definitely brought in a couple of different demographics to the BOL show. She moved on to other adventures. It seems Tom Merritt is ready for new adventures too.
During his tenure on BOL, Tom Merritt demonstrated journalistic integrity by considering both sides of popular technology issues, often playing devil's advocate to Molly Wood's position. He was articulate and quick with the nerdy jokes that would make you roll your eyes and groan. He will be starting with Leo Laporte's TWiT network June 1. I look forward to seeing what he does next.
That leaves Molly Wood as that last original member of the BOL team. Molly is famous for her rants which used to be entertaining, but as time passed they seemed to impede rational discussion rather than provide insightful opinion and passion to technology news. I may just have to start listening to the show to see how the dynamic changes with Tom gone.

The U.S. government has begun issuing trading licenses to Huawei's American partners
It may soon be able to add Google services to its phones.
by Muhammad Jarir KanjiWhat you need to know
- The U.S. government announced its intent to allow some companies to resume supplies of 'non-sensitive' tech to Huawei earlier this month.
- It has now finally gotten around to making decisions on those requests.
- The department has received over 290 such requests from different firms.
Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross confirmed to the Fox Business Network (via Reuters) that his department has started issuing responses to over 290 requests from different American companies to resume supplying some goods to Huawei.
News that the Trump administration was considering such licenses — purportedly under direct orders from the President — broke last month. Secretary Ross then confirmed that his department would start issuing licenses "very shortly" a little over two weeks ago, and it seems that's now.
"We now have been starting to send out the 20-day intent to deny letters and some approvals," said the Secretary. Companies like Intel, Micron, and others were already circumventing the ban on Huawei by shying away from labeling their products as 'American-made.' The licenses, if granted to these companies, could allow them to go back to selling their wares to Huawei without the need to resort to legal loopholes.
Far more importantly, a license granted to Google could enable it to continue supporting its mobile services — things like the Play Store, Gmail, and Maps — on Huawei's newest handsets, like the Mate 30 Pro, which we labeled 'the best phone you shouldn't buy' because of its lack of Google services. With its already spectacular performance in the last quarter, being able to sell phones with the backing of Google would put Huawei well on its way to make up for lost time and continue vigorously pursuing its goal of unseating Samsung as the largest smartphone maker by market share.

NOTE: This article uses Amazon Linux AMI (32 bit)
I used to host this website on an Amazon EC2 instance. But in fact, that EC2 instance had been mainly used as a VPN server.
And here is how it was setup.
First of all, you need to install pptpd
, with the following commands:
$ wget http://poptop.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/rhel6/i386/pptpd-1.3.4-2.el6.i686.rpm
$ yum localinstall pptpd-1.3.4-2.el6.i686.rpm
(for 64 bit instances, get the package at http://poptop.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/rhel6/x86_64/pptpd-1.4.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm)
And update pptpd configurations in file /etc/pptpd.conf
, by adding the following lines:
localip <IP_ADDRESS>
remoteip <IP_ADDRESS>-30
The localip
field determines the IP address of your EC2 instance on the VPN, while remoteip
field determines the IP address of connected clients. Because there may be potentially many clients connecting to this VPN, the remoteip
is a range of 20 IP addresses.
Optionally, you might want need to tell your clients to use some specific DNS server. This could be done by editing /etc/ppp/options.pptpd
, and add the following lines:
ms-dns <IP_ADDRESS>
ms-dns <IP_ADDRESS>
We are using Google’s public DNS servers here.
Now you want to setup VPN username and password in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets
. Each line in the file has the format:
<username> pptpd <passwd> *
Next step is to enable IP forwarding. Edit /etc/sysctl.conf
, use the following config:
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
You need to reload the configuration by /sbin/sysctl -p
.
And we also need to enable iptables
NAT configuration:
$ iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
To ensure the NAT configuration be loaded when the machine boots, it might be a good idea to add in your /etc/rc.local
the command iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
.
OK, it’s nearly finished! You need to start the pptpd
service, and set it to automatically start when the machine boots:
$ /sbin/service pptpd start
$ chkconfig pptpd on
ONE FINAL THING: be sure to enable port 1723 of your EC2 instance, otherwise the firewall will prevent your VPN from working!
If the VPN server is not working correctly, check /var/log/message
for error messages.
UPDATE ON 2014-09-07
I recently setup an instance again and could not connect to it. The server side error log /var/log/message
says the following:
/usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
Couldn't load plugin /usr/lib/pptpd/pptpd-logwtmp.so
GRE: read(fd=6,buffer=8059660,len=8196) from PTY failed: status = -1 error = Input/output error, usually caused by unexpected termination of pppd, check option syntax and pppd logs
I found a solution from http://www.lidaren.com/archives/1229 (in Chinese). That is, comment out the following line from /etc/pptpd.conf
:
logwtmp
Restart pptpd and it should start working.
Client side configuration
For Mac, make sure you added PPTP VPN connection. Besides that you only need to setup server address, account name, and password in authentication settings. No pain here.
(Thanks to Slavomir J for the Mac screen shots)
For Linux, I used NetworkManager to add VPN connections. Make sure you added PPTP VPN connection. And the configuration I use is here:
And for Windows:

This directive instructs Squid where, and how, to store cached objects on disk. See Section 7.1 for the details on cache directories. The second parameter selects the storage scheme. Your choices are ufs, aufs, diskd, coss, and null. To use any scheme other than ufs, you must use the --enable-storeio option with ./configure. See Section 3.4. The third parameter is the amount of disk space to use for the cache. The units are in megabytes. The fourth and fifth parameters are the number of L1 and L2 directories. Don't change these values for directories that already contain cached objects. Some cache_dir schemes have additional, optional parameters. Refer to the scheme-specific sections in Chapter 8.

public interface Linguist extends Configurable
The main role of any linguist is to represent the search space for the decoder. The search space can be retrieved by
a SearchManager via a call to getSearchGraph
. This method returns a SearchGraph. The initial state in
the search graph can be retrieved via a call to getInitialState
Successor states can be retrieved via
calls to SearchState.getSuccessors().
. There are a number of search state subinterfaces that are used to
indicate different types of states in the search space:
SearchGraph.getNumStateOrder()
can be used to retrieve the number of state types that will be returned
by the linguist. The method SearchState.getOrder()
returns the ranking for a particular state.
Depending on the vocabulary size and topology, the search space represented by the linguist may include a very large
number of states. Some linguists will generate the search states dynamically, that is, the object representing a
particular state in the search space is not created until it is needed by the SearchManager. SearchManagers often
need to be able to determine if a particular state has been entered before by comparing states. Because SearchStates
may be generated dynamically, the SearchState.equals()
call (as opposed to the reference equals '=='
method) should be used to determine if states are equal. The states returned by the linguist will generally provide
very efficient implementations of equals
and hashCode
. This will allow a SearchManager to
maintain collections of states in HashMaps efficiently.
The lifecycle of a linguist is as follows:
register
method.
newProperties
call. A well written linguist
should be prepared to respond to newProperties
call at any time.
allocate
method is called. During this call the linguist generally allocates resources such as
acoustic and language models. This can often take a significant amount of time. A well-written linguist will be able
to deal with multiple calls to allocate
. This can happen if a linguist is shared by multiple search
managers.
getSearchGraph
method is called by the search to retrieve the search graph that is used to
guide the decoding/search. This method is typically called at the beginning of each recognition. The linguist should
endeavor to return the search graph as quickly as possible to reduce any recognition latency. Some linguists will
pre-generate the search graph in the allocate
method, and only need to return a reference to the search
graph, while other linguists may dynamically generate the search graph on each call. Also note that some linguists
may change the search graph between calls so a search manager should always get a new search graph before the start
of each recognition.
startRecognition
method is called just before recognition starts. This gives the linguist the
opportunity to prepare for the recognition task. Some linguists may keep caches of search states that need to be
primed or flushed. Note however that if a linguist depends on startRecognition
or
stopRecognition
it is likely to not be a reentrant linguist which could limit its usefulness in some
multi-threaded environments.
stopRecognition
method is called just after recognition completes. This gives the linguist the
opportunity to cleanup after the recognition task. Some linguists may keep caches of search states that need to be
primed or flushed. Note however that if a linguist depends on startRecognition
or
stopRecognition
it is likely to not be a reentrant linguist which could limit its usefulness in some
multi-threaded environments.

Implementor's note: This method is typically called at the beginning of each recognition and therefore should be
void startRecognition()
Implementor's Note - Some linguists (or underlying lanaguge or acoustic models) may keep caches or pools that need to be initialzed before a recognition. A linguist may implement this method to perform such initialization. Note however, that an ideal linguist will, once allocated, be state-less. This will allow the linguist to be shared by multiple simulataneous searches. Reliance on a 'startRecognition' may prevent a linguist from being used in a multi-threaded search.
void stopRecognition()
Implementor's Note - Some linguists (or underlying lanaguge or acoustic models) may keep caches or pools that need to be flushed after a recognition. A linguist may implement this method to perform such flushing. Note however, that an ideal linguist will once allocated, be state-less. This will allow the linguist to be shared by multiple simulataneous searches. Reliance on a 'stopRecognition' may prevent a linguist from being used in a multi-threaded search.
void allocate() throws java.io.IOException
Implementor's Note - A well written linguist will allow allocate to be called multiple times without harm. This will allow a linguist to be shared by multiple search managers.
java.io.IOException
- if an IO error occursvoid deallocate() throws java.io.IOException
Implementor's Note - if the linguist is being shared by multiple searches, the deallocate should only actually deallocate things when the last call to deallocate is made. Two approaches for dealing with this:
(1) Keep an allocation counter that is incremented during allocate and decremented during deallocate. Only when the counter reaches zero should the actually deallocation be performed.
(2) Do nothing in dellocate - just the the GC take care of things
java.io.IOException
- if an IO error occurs

The ICON R package provides easy-to-use and easy-to-access datasets from the Index of COmplex Networks (ICON) database available at the University of Colorado website. All datasets can be loaded with a single function call and new datasets are being slowly added from ICON at https://icon.colorado.edu. Currently, the ICON R package includes 1,075 complex networks.
To install the ICON package, run the following R code:
# install from CRAN (older, fewer networks) install.packages("ICON") # install development version from GitHub (updated, more networks) devtools::install_github("rrrlw/ICON")
The sample code below demonstrates network visualization using the igraph R package. For a more detailed look at network analysis (using the network R package) and visualization (using the ggnetwork R package), please take a look at the package vignette.
# load ICON package and data frame of available datasets library("ICON") data(ICON_data) # vector of names of available datasets print(ICON_data$Var_name) # look at entire data frame in Rstudio View(ICON_data) # load the chess dataset for use and look at the first few lines get_data("chess") head(chess) # load another dataset for use get_data("seed_disperse_beehler") # plot interaction network using igraph library("igraph") my_graph <- graph_from_edgelist(as.matrix(seed_disperse_beehler[, 1:2]), directed = FALSE) plot(my_graph, vertex.label = NA, vertex.size = 5) # following plot is generated (exact vertex positioning varies each time code is run)

This program creates HugeInteger objects that contain an array representing up to 40 digits of an integer. Compare and arithmetic functions are also provided.
Upon starting, two random HugeIntegers h1 and h2 are created. Operations are performed to compare to zero and each other. After that, the two HugeIntegers are added and subtracted from each other. All results are printed to the display.
The HugeInteger class contains an integer array of size 40. It can be filled by the parse method that takes a string and converts it to the digits in the array. Array entries can also be set individually.
The HugeIntegerTest class uses Math.random to create two HugeInteger objects with a random number of digits between 1 and 40. It also fills each digit with a random number between 1 and 10. It then tests the isZero, isEqualTo, isLessThan, isGreaterThan, add, and subtract methods and prints the results.

Who will be the next Premier League manager to get sacked?
by Phil EganSeveral Premier League managers are under increasing pressure after the weekend, but who will be the first to be shown the exit door?
Unai Emery
Arsenal needed an injury time equaliser to rescue a 2-2 draw at home to Southampton.
The Saints haven't won a league game since mid-September and must be wondering how they didn't leave the Emirates with all three points.
The Arsenal players were booed off after the sixth game in a row without a win. Unai Emery's side are eight points off the Champions League places but the way things are going, that gap looks like it will only get bigger.
The Gunners are on their worst run of form for over 20 years, and Emery appears to have lost the support of the fans.
Arsenal face Eintracht Frankfurt, Norwich, Brighton, West Ham and Standard Liege in the coming weeks. All those games would not be considered to be the toughest fixtures, but at the moment it is a struggle for Emery and co.
Former Arsenal midfielder Mikel Arteta is one of the names being linked to the job.
Marco Silva
The Everton manager is the favourite to be the next Premier League manager to get sacked.
The Toffees lost 2-0 at home to Norwich over the weekend, leaving them just four points above the relegation zone.
Everton were in good form towards the end of last season and the hope at Goodison Park was that the club would push on.
However, it has been a struggle for Silva and it seems it is now a case of when and not if he gets the sack.
Everton lost to a Norwich team that had not won an away game all season and had only scored one goal on the road, which incidentally came on the opening weekend against Liverpool.
Their next five games are against Leicester, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and Leicester (in the League Cup).
Former Toffees boss David Moyes could be on his way back to the club but former midfielder Arteta is also a name being mentioned.
Manuel Pellegrini
West Ham beat Manchester United in September to move up to fifth in the league but since then the Hammers are without a win in seven top-flight games.
West Ham lost 3-2 at home to Tottenham and in truth that scoreline flattered the home side.
The poor run of form also coincides with an injury to goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski. His replacement Roberto Jimenez is making a name for himself, but for all the wrong reasons.
Roberto's poor form could well end up costing Pellegrini his job, and former Republic of Ireland international Chris Hughton is one of the managers being tipped to replace the Chilean.
Other managers under pressure
Watford boss Quique Sanchez Flores could find himself under increasing pressure in the coming weeks even though he's not back at the club long.
Southampton's Ralph Hasenhuttl would be feeling a lot better if his side had beaten Arsenal.
With every game Manchester United do not win, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can expect questions about being the right man for the job as long as Mauricio Pochettino is available.

Working with git
Now that you have an issue you want to fix, enhancement to add, or documentation to improve, you need to learn how to work with GitHub and the pandas code base.
Version control, Git, and GitHub
To the new user, working with Git is one of the more daunting aspects of contributing to pandas. It can very quickly become overwhelming, but sticking to the guidelines below will help keep the process straightforward and mostly trouble free. As always, if you are having difficulties please feel free to ask for help.
The code is hosted on GitHub. To contribute you will need to sign up for a free GitHub account. We use Git for version control to allow many people to work together on the project.
Some great resources for learning Git:
- the GitHub help pages.
- the NumPy documentation.
- Matthew Brett's Pydagogue.
Getting started with Git
GitHub has instructions for installing git, setting up your SSH key, and configuring git. All these steps need to be completed before you can work seamlessly between your local repository and GitHub.
Forking
You will need your own fork to work on the code. Go to the pandas
project page and hit the
Fork
button. You will want to clone your fork to your machine:
git clone https://github.com/your-user-name/pandas.git pandas-yourname
cd pandas-yourname
git remote add upstream https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas.git
This creates the directory pandas-yourname
and connects
your repository to the upstream (main project) pandas repository.
Creating a branch
You want your master branch to reflect only production-ready code, so create a feature branch for making your changes. For example:
git branch shiny-new-feature
git checkout shiny-new-feature
The above can be simplified to:
git checkout -b shiny-new-feature
This changes your working directory to the shiny-new-feature branch. Keep any changes in this branch specific to one bug or feature so it is clear what the branch brings to pandas. You can have many shiny-new-features and switch in between them using the git checkout command.
When creating this branch, make sure your master branch is up to date with the latest upstream master version. To update your local master branch, you can do:
git checkout master
git pull upstream master --ff-only
When you want to update the feature branch with changes in master after you created the branch, check the section on updating a PR.

Gary Lineker has a warning for Tottenham after Pochettino sacking
Tottenham Hotspur are now on the hunt for a new manager.
by Mathew NashTottenham Hotspur have parted company with manager Mauricio Pochettino after a difficult start to the 2019-20 campaign. Despite taking Tottenham to the Champions League final last season, Tottenham have struggled this term and Pochettino has been relieved of his duties along with the rest of his coaching staff.
The Argentine had turned Tottenham into a serious force in recent years. However, a stagnation of the current squad has seen performances dip and Tottenham are currently struggling at the wrong end of the Premier League table.
However, plenty are of the belief that Tottenham are making a big mistake. The Argentine is immensely popular with the Tottenham fans, even amid their recent poor form.
One such opinion comes from former Tottenham and England striker Gary Lineker. He feels Tottenham have made a big mistake in the sacking of Pochettino and that they will struggle to find anyone who can do a better job than the popular form Southampton manager.
Lineker was not alone. NBA legend and popular Tottenham fan Steve Nash was ‘devastated’ by the news. Jamie Carragher however, feels the current project had run its course.
Tottenham will now be looking for a replacement, with Jose Mourinho and Max Allegri already being tipped as potential new managers.

What are the benefits of version control? Version Control is a way to keep track of all the changes you made. You can also revisit any save point that you like. For example if want to recall my second save point I could with version control.
How does git help you keep track of changes? Git helps you keep track of changes by making commits. Also there is untracked files and files that need to be commited. Once commited they will save on your computer. If you would like to check your commmit and the time you made them, type in the command "git log".
Why use GitHub to store your code? One reason why you should use GitHub is everything is free. Another, is that git is easily linked with GitHub. You can use git to edit/create your files and use GitHub to share those files with others.

Tenth Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change
06-Dec-04 — original report
Climate change is considered one of the most serious threats to sustainable development, with adverse impacts expected on human health, food security, economic activity, natural resources and physical infrastructure.
Global climate varies naturally, but scientists agree that rising concentrations of anthropogenically produced greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere are leading to changes in the climate.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the effects of climate change have already been observed, and scientists believe that precautionary and prompt action is necessary. The international political response to climate change began with the adoption of the UNFCCC in 1992.
The UNFCCC sets out a framework for action aimed at stabilizing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases in order to avoid 'dangerous anthropogenic interference' with the climate system.
Controlled gases include methane, nitrous oxide, and, in particular, carbon dioxide.
The UNFCCC entered into force on 21 March 1994, and now has 189 Parties.
This workshop met from 30 August to 1 September 2004, in Lillehammer, Norway.
The objective of the workshop was to increase the understanding of issues relating to harvested wood products (HWP).
Participants discussed various aspects related to definitions and scope of estimating, reporting and accounting of HWP.
A report of the workshop will be presented to SBSTA-21.
The workshop on emissions projections was held from 6-8 September 2004, in Bonn, and aimed to support the preparation of Annex I fourth national communications.
The workshop covered methods, assumptions, indicators, key parameters of models and sensitivity analysis, and the dissemination of methodologies for estimating emissions projections.
A workshop report will be presented to SBSTA-21.
The workshop on innovative options for financing the development and transfer of technologies was held from 27-29 September 2004, in Montreal, Canada.
The workshop sought to create a better understanding of innovative financing for technology transfer under the UNFCCC.
It provided an opportunity for participants to share experiences and information on good practice for financing technology transfer, and to catalyze innovative thinking on the issue, as well as to help narrow any differences that might exist.
The discussions and outcomes of the workshop will be taken up by SBSTA-21.
This workshop was held from 30 September to 1 October 2004, in Dublin, Ireland.
The purpose of the workshop was to facilitate the timely submission of the fourth national communications by Annex I Parties, which are due by 1 January 2006, and to encourage the exchange of views among technical experts on the comparability and transparency of the information in the communications.
A report of the workshop will be presented to SBI-21.
The 22nd session of the IPCC was held from 9-11 November 2004, in New Delhi.
The meeting provided an opportunity for continued deliberations on the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) due to be published in 2007.
Participants discussed, inter alia, the timing, scope, length and content of the AR4 Synthesis Report, approving a process for its development.
Delegates agreed to a 30-page Synthesis Report with a five-page Summary for Policymakers to be approved by the IPCC in late October 2007.
The session also held discussions on IPCC outreach, noting the need to ensure that special reports and the AR4 reach the broadest possible audience.
Since SB-20, there have been numerous meetings of the UNFCCC's constituted bodies, including meetings immediately preceding COP-10.
The LDC Expert Group met from 24-25 September in Banjul, the Gambia.
A hands-on training workshop on national greenhouse gas inventories for the Latin America and Caribbean region was held from 25-29 October in Panama City, Panama.
The CDM EB met for its 15th and 16th sessions in Bonn in September and October, respectively, and its 17th session was held from 2-3 December in Buenos Aires.
On 18 November, the first CDM project was registered.
The project aims to reduce emissions of methane from a landfill in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Other groups that met in Buenos Aires immediately prior to COP-10 include the Expert Group on Technology Transfer, which convened from 2-4 December, and the Consultative Group of Experts on non-Annex I national communications, which met from 2-3 December.
In December 1997, delegates met at COP-3 in Kyoto, Japan, and agreed to a Protocol to the UNFCCC that commits developed countries and countries making the transition to a market economy to achieve quantified emission reduction targets.
These countries, known under the UNFCCC as Annex I Parties, agreed to reduce their overall emissions of six greenhouse gases by at least 5% below 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012 (the first commitment period), with specific targets varying from country to country.
The Protocol also establishes three flexible mechanisms to assist Annex I Parties in meeting their national targets cost-effectively: an emissions trading system; joint implementation (JI) of emissions-reduction projects between Annex I Parties; and the CDM, which allows for projects to be implemented in non-Annex I (developing country) Parties. At subsequent meetings, Parties negotiated most of the rules and operational details determining how countries will cut emissions, and measure and assess emissions reductions.
To date, 129 Parties have ratified the Protocol, including 36 Annex I Parties, representing 61.6% of 1990 Annex I emissions, meeting the requirements for entry into force of the Protocol.
In November 1998, Parties met at COP-4 in Buenos Aires and agreed to a set of decisions known as the Buenos Aires Plan of Action (BAPA).
The BAPA set COP-6 as the deadline for reaching agreement on the operational details of the Protocol and on strengthening implementation of the UNFCCC.
In particular, issues to be addressed were rules relating to the mechanisms, a regime for assessing Parties' compliance, accounting methods for national emissions and emissions reductions, and rules on crediting countries for carbon sinks.
Issues under the UNFCCC that required resolution included questions of capacity building, the development and transfer of technology, and assistance to those developing countries particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change or to actions taken by industrialized countries to combat climate change.
COP-6 Part I was held in The Hague, the Netherlands, from 13-25 November 2000.
During discussions on the BAPA, negotiators could not agree on a range of topics, particularly on financial issues, the use of the mechanisms, compliance and LULUCF.
On Saturday afternoon, 25 November, delegates agreed to suspend COP-6 and resume negotiations in 2001.
Parties reconvened at COP-6 Part II from 16-27 July 2001, in Bonn, Germany.
After protracted consultations, ministers agreed to adopt a political decision, with a revised section on compliance.
This political decision - or 'Bonn Agreements' - needed to be operationalized through COP decisions.
These decisions were considered a 'package,' but as agreement had not been reached on the mechanisms, compliance and LULUCF, all draft decisions were forwarded to COP-7.
Delegates continued discussions on the 'Bonn Agreements' at COP-7 in Marrakesh, Morocco, from 29 October to 10 November 2001.
After lengthy negotiations, a package deal on LULUCF, mechanisms, compliance, Protocol Articles 5 (methodological issues), 7 (communication of information) and 8 (review of information), and input to the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) was proposed.
Following extensive negotiations, delegates agreed, and the 'Marrakesh Accords' were adopted.
Delegates to COP-8 met from 23 October to 1 November 2002, in New Delhi, India.
On the final day of COP-8, they adopted the Delhi Declaration on Climate Change and Sustainable Development.
The Declaration reaffirms development and poverty eradication as overriding priorities in developing countries, and recognizes Parties' common but differentiated responsibilities and national development priorities and circumstances in the implementation of UNFCCC commitments.
Parties also considered institutional and procedural issues under the Protocol and adopted several decisions, including on the rules and procedures for the Executive Board (EB) of the CDM.
From 1-12 December 2003, Parties met at COP-9 in Milan, Italy.
The last outstanding detail of the BAPA was finalized when Parties agreed on modalities and procedures for afforestation and reforestation activities under the CDM for the first commitment period.
Negotiations on the operation of the SCCF and the Least Developed Countries' (LDC) Fund proved to be challenging, with protracted discussions on the LDC Fund postponing the closing of the COP.
Negotiations on good practice guidance for LULUCF were also lengthy, and remained unfinished.
The twentieth sessions of SBI and SBSTA met from 16-25 June 2004, in Bonn.
Among other things, SBSTA-20 considered small-scale afforestation and reforestation CDM project activities and good practice guidance on LULUCF.
SBI-20 addressed the UNFCCC's financial mechanism and arrangements for intergovernmental meetings.
Discussions on these issues are expected to continue at the 21st sessions of SBI and SBSTA in Buenos Aires.
Two in-session workshops were also held; one on adaptation, and the other on mitigation.
A number of UNFCCC workshops and other relevant events have taken place since SB-20.

NiftyCoin - an art and media enabling blockchain and crypto solution
2020.11.05 Note! New Web Wallet with NFT support launched - try it out at mint.niftycoin.org
2020.11.04 Note! Updates to the Blockchain means you have to download the latest NiftyCoin Client on the getstarted page to continue mining
NiftyCoin and the NiftyBlockchain is built upon the LiteCoin design, which again is a fork of BitCoin. NiftyCoin has been designed to enable persistant media and art content, so that they will forever be traceable, from birth, and whenever the media or art content changes hands.
Therefore the storage capacity for each transaction has been increased beyond what BitCoin and LiteCoin can offer, and a best practice protocol has been designed to store either a reference or the actual content within the blockchain.
A whitepaper is in the works to describe this in detail.
Our official NiftyCoin Explorer: explorer.niftycoin.org
Our official Mining Pool: pool.niftycoin.org
Our official open source site @ github.com
High Level Background
Here are some highlevel background information about NiftyCoin and the NiftyCoin Blockchain
- NiftyCoin and NiftyCoin Blockchain is a fork of LiteCoin.
- LiteCoin is a fork of BitCoin but with Scrypt encryption support and larger volume of money (which should make transactions faster and cheaper).
- In addition the blockchain is enhanced to support NFTs and other Tokens, directly on the blockchain.
- NFTs support are based on SLP (Simple Ledger Protocol), and OP_RETURN method used by e.g. blockchain.com
- The NiftyCoin Blockchain NFT protocol extends the SLP protocol with meta-data described below.
- For technnical details about the original SLP protocol see SLP DEV
- Note! that the original SLP NFT protocol does not support the Metadata that NiftyCoin supports!
NFT Protocol Information
Here are some highlevel protocol information (in the request for change NCE-02 )
Stored meta-data:
- Main Artist / Designer / Creator (can be multiple)
- If more than one Artist / Designer / Creator - the redistribution share is denoted (will be used to share the proceeds every time a media or art piece is sold).
- Title of Art Piece / Design / Song / Sample
- For art / designs - Number of identical pieces (e.g. 1000)
- For art / design - What number of the art is this (e.g. numer 54 - out of the 1000 above)
- For music and sound samples - Reference to Album and index
- Agreed redistribution percentage to blockchain fascilitator
- Unique File Identity - from a proposed International Art and Media Database

Zelensky commemorates victims of Revolution of Dignity (Photo, video)
The official event was also attended by senior officials.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and First Lady Olena Zelenska have commemorated the sixth anniversary of the Revolution of Dignity (the end of November 2013 – February 2014) and honored people who were killed during Euromaidan events.
The presidential couple put lit candles to the Memorial Cross set on the site where the Heavenly Hundred Heroes were killed, according to the president's press service.
The event was also attended by Prime Minister of Ukraine Oleksiy Honcharuk, First Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Ruslan Stefanchuk, Chairman of the SBU Security Service of Ukraine Ivan Bakanov, and other senior officials.
The attendees honored the deceased with a moment of silence.
Ukraine marks the sixth anniversary of the Revolution of Dignity on November 21, 2019. The end of November is when the Orange Revolution started in 2004 and the Revolution of Dignity in 2013.
These events have changed Ukraine's history. One of the most tragic events for Ukrainians was the struggle for justice, which began six years ago with protest rallies on Maidan Nezalezhnosti, or Independence Square, in the center of Kyiv. Later, the rallies grew into the Revolution of Dignity and Freedom. The protest in downtown Kyiv was called Euromaidan, and the most active participants were students. A few days later, a peaceful rally turned into a brutal massacre at night. The Revolution of Dignity and Freedom has become one of the most tragic pages in the history of modern Ukraine and forever changed the country and the nation.


At least 29 dead in Kenyan landslide, President says
Landslide caused 'massive destruction'
by Amir Vera, CNN(CNN) - At least 29 people were killed in Kenya as heavy rains triggered a landslide, President Uhuru Kenyatta said in a statement Saturday.
The landslide began around 2:30 a.m. Saturday in West Pokot County near the Ugandan border, according to the statement. The landslide caused "massive destruction" to infrastructure like bridges and roads.
"My thoughts and prayers, and those of our entire nation are with families, friends and relatives of those who lost their beloved in the unfortunate incident. Please accept my heartfelt condolences," Kenyatta wrote.
He said he directed the deployment of rescue personnel to help people affected by the landslide.
"To those whose loved ones are yet to be found," Kenyatta wrote, "I assure you that the ongoing multi-agency rescue operation will continue until after every missing person is accounted for."
CNN's AJ Davis and Alla Eshchenko contributed to this report.


About_
Welcome to the Forgotton Technician’s Notebook. This is my third blog, after using Livejournal in the late 90’s and moving on to blogger somewhere in the aughts. I’m hoping to make this one stick. One major change is that this one has been built by me, using Jekyll and Poole. I feel like I have a better understanding of the software running my blog, and have modified it to my purposes. Additionally, should I ever decide I want to switch blog providers, it’s easy to do. I own the software infrastructure, and the hardware’s just a detail. More than with my previous blogs, I feel like I really -own- this one.
The flipside of that is that I am missing out on a lot of infrastructure benefits that both Blogger and LiveJournal had, such as followers and a proper comments section. I’m considering Disqus or Discourse, but… eh. Managing internet communities and comment sections is not strongly appealing to me.
This blog has a few purposes. One, it’s a great place to vent my opinions out of my head. Thus freed of them, my mind will hopefully be able to flow more freely. Also, teaching. I have shied away from teaching in my past blogs, because I feel that a lot of what I could have to say has been said better by more intelligent people elsewhere. This is still true, but teaching has a benefit for me as well. If I can teach it, I know it. So the purpose of my teaching is less to serve as a benefit for others, but more as a benefit for myself.
Metadata Tags
Each one of the tags I use, I use for a specific purpose.
- Math
Hah! This one primarily exists to try and encourage me to teach some math. It's not going to happen.
- Code
Unlike the math tag, the code tag will probably get used, either to teach code or to talk about code or to talk about software engineering in general.
- Shadowrun
Shadowrun is one of my favorite settings, and I'm hoping to post some of the work I'm doing to hopefully make its rule mechanics better.
- Story
Ideally, I would probably have a seperate tumblr to post my fanfic and other awful stories to. Failing that, I figure I can alienate some readers here.
- Opinion
This one's actually really important. I have a lot of opinions. They're a burden, and frankly, kind of useless. I am hoping that by posting them here, to this blog, to free myself of them. Get them out into the open internet, and then I don't need to think them anymore; after all, they're right there. My opinions are unsubstantiated and probably wrong. You can ignore this tag.
- Question
Sometimes I answer questions in-character for the amusement of my friends. This was primarily meant to be a Facebook activity, but since Facebook is a bit of an archival mess and I don't like it anyway, some of those question and answer posts will wind up here. Also, Facebook is kind of a short-form format. Some of the questions were so good, I kind of want to grow them out. Here, they can be as large as they need to be and nobody who matters will mind.
- Frontier
I have this sci-fi universe idea that's been bouncing around in my head off and on for what seems like forever. I was originally just going to shove this under the story tag, but decided it deserves its own space. Besides, quite a few posts from my old blogs needed to be transferred over. Hate to let all that go to waste.
- Void
Sometimes there just doesn't seem to be a proper category.
Credits
Without these people and their willingness to share their work on the internet, my blog would be a flaming wreck.
-
Joshua Lande (@joshualande): Looking at his work got me started on this mess. My Archive.Bin history page cribs heavily from his work here.
-
Charlie Park (@charliepark): I borrowed some of his CSS for my tagging metawrapper. This post of his helped start me on my way.
-
Joe Kampschmidt (@jokecamp): Ultimately, his approach to tags led to how they’re implemented in the Archive.Bin, and what really made Jekyll tags ‘click’ in my mind, leading to my current implementation. This post is what led to what the archive-by-tag page looks like today.
-
Stephan Groß (@minddust): The idea to manually make pages for my tags, from here.
Have questions or suggestions? Right now the best thing to do is probably bother me on Twitter, though I make no promises.
Thanks for reading!

Readability of the C source code generated from VCL code has been improved.
Equality (==) and inequality (!=) operators have been implemented for IP addresses (which previously could only be compared using ACLs).
The address of the listening socket on which the client connection was received is now available to VCL as the server.ip variable.
Each object's hash key is now computed based on a string which is available to VCL as req.hash. A VCL hook named vcl_hash has been added to allow VCL scripts to control hash generation (for instance, whether or not to include the value of the Host: header in the hash).
The setup code for listening sockets has been modified to detect and handle situations where a host name resolves to multiple IP addresses. It will now attempt to bind to each IP address separately, and report a failure only if none of them worked.
Network or protocol errors that occur while retrieving an object from a backend server now result in a synthetic error page being inserted into the cache with a 30-second TTL. This should help avoid driving an overburdened backend server into the ground by repeatedly requesting the same object.
The child process will now drop root privileges immediately upon startup. The user and group to use are specified with the user and group run-time parameters, which default to nobody and nogroup, respectively. Other changes have been made in an effort to increase the isolation between parent and child, and reduce the impact of a compromise of the child process.
Objects which are received from the backend with a Vary: header are now stored separately according to the values of the headers specified in Vary:. This allows Varnish to correctly cache e.g. compressed and uncompressed versions of the same object.
Each Varnish instance now has a name, which by default is the host name of the machine it runs on, but can be any string that would be valid as a relative or absolute directory name. It is used to construct the name of a directory in which the server state as well as all temporary files are stored. This makes it possible to run multiple Varnish instances on the same machine without conflict.
When invoked with the -C option, varnishd will now not just translate the VCL code to C, but also compile the C code and attempt to load the resulting shared object.
Attempts by VCL code to reference a variable outside its scope or to assign a value to a read-only variable will now result in compile-time rather than run-time errors.
The new command-line option -F will make varnishd run in the foreground, without enabling debugging.
New VCL variables have been introduced to allow inspection and manipulation of the request sent to the backend (bereq.request, bereq.url, bereq.proto and bereq.http) and the response to the client (resp.proto, resp.status, resp.response and resp.http).
Statistics from the storage code (including the amount of data and free space in the cache) are now available to varnishstat and other statistics-gathering tools.
Objects are now kept on an LRU list which is kept loosely up-to-date (to within a few seconds). When cache runs out, the objects at the tail end of the LRU list are discarded one by one until there is enough space for the freshly requested object(s). A VCL hook, vcl_discard, is allowed to inspect each object and determine its fate by returning either keep or discard.
A new VCL hook, vcl_deliver, provides a chance to adjust the response before it is sent to the client.
A new management command, vcl.show, displays the VCL source code of any loaded configuration.
A new VCL variable, now, provides VCL scripts with the current time in seconds since the epoch.
A new VCL variable, obj.lastuse, reflects the time in seconds since the object in question was last used.
VCL scripts can now add an HTTP header (or modify the value of an existing one) by assigning a value to the corresponding variable, and strip an HTTP header by using the remove keyword.
VCL scripts can now modify the HTTP status code of cached objects (obj.status) and responses (resp.status)
Numeric and other non-textual variables in VCL can now be assigned to textual variables; they will be converted as needed.
VCL scripts can now apply regular expression substitutions to textual variables using the regsub function.
A new management command, status, returns the state of the child.
Varnish will now build and run on Mac OS X.
This is a new utility which sends a single command to a Varnish server's management port and prints the result to stdout, greatly simplifying the use of the management port from scripts.
The user interface has been greatly improved; the histogram will be automatically rescaled and redrawn when the window size changes, and it is updated regularly rather than at a rate dependent on the amount of log data gathered. In addition, the name of the Varnish instance being watched is displayed in the upper right corner.
In addition to client traffic, varnishncsa can now also process log data from backend traffic.
A bug that would cause varnishncsa to segfault when it encountered an empty HTTP header in the log file has been fixed.
This new utility will attempt to recreate the HTTP traffic which resulted in the raw Varnish log data which it is fed.
Don't print lifetime averages when it doesn't make any sense—for instance, there is no point in dividing the amount in bytes of free cache space by the lifetime in seconds of the varnishd process.
The user interface has been greatly improved; varnishstat will no longer print more than fits in the terminal, and will respond correctly to window resize events. The output produced in one-shot mode has been modified to include symbolic names for each entry. In addition, the name of the Varnish instance being watched is displayed in the upper right corner in curses mode.
The user interface has been greatly improved; varnishtop will now respond correctly to window resize events, and one-shot mode (-1) actually works. In addition, the name of the Varnish instance being watched is displayed in the upper right corner in curses mode.

22 January 2010 - As of 17 January 2010, worldwide more than 209 countries and overseas territories or communities have reported laboratory confirmed cases of pandemic influenza H1N1 2009, including at least 14142 deaths.
WHO is actively monitoring the progress of the pandemic through frequent consultations with the WHO Regional Offices and member states and through monitoring of multiple sources of information.
The overall situation in largely unchanged since last week. The most intense transmission of pandemic influenza virus continues to occur in North Africa, South Asia, and in limited areas of Eastern Europe. Overall pandemic influenza activity in the temperate northern hemisphere peaked between late October and late November 2009 and has continued to decline since.
In North Africa, limited data suggest that transmission of pandemic influenza virus remains geographically widespread and active throughout the region, but has likely recently peaked in most places. During early January 2010 only the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya reported an increasing trend in respiratory diseases activity. Egypt is now reporting a declining trend after increases in respiratory diseases activity throughout December 2009, suggesting a recent peak in activity during early January 2010. In West Asia, limited data suggests pandemic influenza virus transmission remains geographically widespread however overall activity has been declining in most places during December and January.
In South Asia, active transmission of pandemic influenza virus persists in the northern and western parts of the subcontinent, however overall activity has recently peaked. In India, influenza activity has been largely confined to the northern and western states; activity in the northern states peaked during mid December 2009 and in the western states during early January 2010. In Nepal, active transmission of virus persists, and the trend in respiratory diseases activity remains unchanged since the previous week after reporting continuous increases in activity since late October 2009.
In Europe, pandemic influenza virus transmission remains geographically widespread across parts of western, central, and southeastern Europe, however overall influenza activity continued to decline or remain low in most countries The areas of most intense transmission currently include Poland, Austria, Estonia, Romania, Hungary, and Moldova; however, in all but Romania, ILI activity has declined significantly since peaking in November. The overall rate of specimens testing positive for influenza fell to 20% in Europe after reaching a peak of 45% during early November 2009. Pandemic H1N1 2009 virus continues to be predominant circulating influenza virus in the European region with only sporadic detections of seasonal influenza viruses.
In East Asia, pandemic influenza activity remains widespread but continues to decline in most places. Mongolia reported a very high intensity of respiratory diseases during early January 2010; rates of ILI have been elevated above expected seasonal levels since late October 2009 but are well below a significant peak of activity observed during November 2009. In Japan, overall influenza activity continued to decline since peaking at the end of November 2009, however regional increases in activity were observed during late December on the southern island of Okinawa. In China, Hong Kong SAR, and Chinese Taipei pandemic influenza activity remains widespread but continues to decline or remain stable. Pandemic H1N1 continues to be the predominant circulating virus in the region but seasonal H3N2 viruses continue to circulate in very small numbers in northern China.
In the Americas, both in the tropical and northern temperate zones, overall pandemic influenza activity continued to decline or remain low in most places.
In temperate regions of the southern hemisphere, sporadic cases of pandemic influenza continued to be reported without evidence of sustained community transmission.
The Global Influenza Surveillance Network (GISN) continues monitoring the global circulation of influenza viruses, including pandemic, seasonal and other influenza viruses infecting, or with the potential to infect, humans including seasonal influenza. For more information on virological surveillance and antiviral resistance please see the weekly virology update (Virological surveillance data, below).
*Countries in temperate regions are defined as those north of the Tropic of Cancer or south of the Tropic of Capricorn, while countries in tropical regions are defined as those between these two latitudes.
**Abbreviations: influenza-like-illness (ILI), acute respiratory infection (ARI), and severe acute respiratory infection (SARI)
The qualitative indicators monitor: the global geographic spread of influenza, trends in acute respiratory diseases, the intensity of respiratory disease activity, and the impact of the pandemic on health-care services.
The maps below display information on the qualitative indicators reported. Information is available for approximately 60 countries each week. Implementation of this monitoring system is ongoing and completeness of reporting is expected to increase over time.
The countries and overseas territories/communities that have newly reported their first pandemic (H1N1) 2009 confirmed cases since the last web update (No. 83): Mali.
The countries and overseas territories/communities that have newly reported their first deaths among pandemic (H1N1) 2009 confirmed cases since the last web update (No. 83): none.
Region Deaths* WHO Regional Office for 131 WHO Regional Office for the At least 7094 WHO Regional Office for the 941 WHO Regional Office for At least 3099 WHO Regional Office for 1366 WHO Regional Office for the Western Pacific (WPRO) 1511 Total* At least 14142
* The reported number of fatal cases is an under representation of the actual numbers as many deaths are never tested or recognized as influenza related.

Here we have a $5\times 5$ board, with $25$ squares. Each domino covers two squares, and so reduces the number of uncovered squares by two. Thus, the number of uncovered squares is always odd, and so in particular is not zero. So we cannot cover the whole board.
Here we have a $6\times 6$ board, with $36$ squares. There are many different ways to cover it with $18$ non-overlapping dominos.
 Each domino covers one black square and one white square, so the number of uncovered white squares is always two more than the number of uncovered black squares. Thus, the total number of uncovered squares can never be zero. So it is impossible to cover the board.
