Recursion
What is recursion? The simple answer is, it’s when a function calls itself. But how does this happen? Why would this happen, and what are its uses?
When we talk about recursion, we are really talking about creating a loop. Let’s start by looking at a basic loop.
1 2 3
|
for(int i=0; i<10; i++) {
cout << "The number is: " << i << endl;
}
| |
For those who don’t yet know, this basic loop displays the sentence, "The number is: " followed by the value of ‘i’. Like this.
The number is: 0
The number is: 1
The number is: 2
The number is: 3
The number is: 4
The number is: 5
The number is: 6
The number is: 7
The number is: 8
The number is: 9
|
Inside the ‘for loop’ declaration we have the integer variable ‘i’ and have its starting value of 0. So the first time the sentence is displayed it reads, "The number is: 0". The part of the ‘for loop’ declaration that is ‘i++’ tells the program that each time the loop repeats, the value of ‘i’ should be increased by 1. So, the next time the sentence is displayed it reads, "The number is: 1".
This cycle will continue to repeat for as long as the value of ‘i’ is less than 10. The last sentence displayed would read, "The number is: 9". As you can see the basic ‘for loop’ has three parts to its declaration, a starting value, what must remain true in order to continue repeating, and a modifying expression. Everything that is contained within the {braces} is what the program performs. Cout stands for console out, and prints words or characters to the screen.
So what does this have to do with recursion? Remember recursion is a loop. What if I did not want to just print a message to the screen? A loop can be used to perform other tasks as well.
In the following code is the same loop as above only now it is being used to call a function.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
|
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void numberFunction(int i) {
cout << "The number is: " << i << endl;
}
int main() {
for(int i=0; i<10; i++) {
numberFunction(i);
}
return 0;
}
| |
I have declared a void function, which means it returns nothing, and takes a parameter of ‘int i’. The function is named ‘numberFunction’ and as you can see, all it does is display the sentence, "The number is: " followed by the current value of ‘i’. The function is called into use by the ‘for loop’, which continually calls the function as long as the value of ‘i’ is less than 10.
Now with recursion, we won’t need to use a ‘for loop’ because we will set it up so that our function calls itself. Let’s recreate this same program one more time, only this time we will do it without a ‘for loop’. We will use a recursion loop instead, like this.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18
|
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void numberFunction(int i) {
cout << "The number is: " << i << endl;
i++;
if(i<10) {
numberFunction(i);
}
}
int main() {
int i = 0;
numberFunction(i);
return 0;
}
| |
We did it! We used recursion! You can see the call to ‘numberFunction’ is made only once in the main part of the program but it keeps getting called again and again from within the function itself, for as long as ‘i’ is less than 10.


The integrated date picker can be used to pick date, time and timezone within a single component. This is defined as an input
element having the date-time-picker-popup
attribute.
The ng-model
attribute should contain an object with date and time values. The timezones are passed as an array
to the timezones
attribute, with the default index given to the timezone-default-index
attribute.
The resulting date, time and timezone will be set to the object passed to the ng-model
.
The component can be configured with the following options provided as attributes:
Should contain a json object with date, time and timezone values.
Indicating whether the time picker should work in 12 hour mode or 24 hour mode. The 12 hour mode
is selected when is-meridian is set to true and the 24 hour mode is selected when is-meridian is
set to false.Indicating whether the time picker should work in 12 hour mode or 24 hour mode.
The 12 hour mode is selected when is-meridian is set to true and the 24 hour mode is selected
when is-meridian is set to false.
An array of values containing the timezones.
The array index of the default timezone to be selected.
Indicates whether time picker should be displayed.
Indicates whether date picker should be displayed.
Indicates whether the seconds field in the time picker should be displayed.
Indicates whether timezone picker should be displayed.
Choose whether the default time should be the start or end of the day. Valid values are
start
and end
.
Set a funtion here to override the default validation checks with your own custom checks.
This should return true if the validation passes; otherwise return false.
Defines whether the popover should appear to the bottom or top of the input. The valid options
are top
, right
, bottom
and left
. The default value is bottom
.
Sets the format for how the date will appear in the input box when in 12hour mode.
Sets the format for how the date will appear in the input box when in 24 hour mode.
Note: Refer to the moment.js documentation for more information about format strings.
The time picker only mode is created by setting the choose-time
attribute to true
and the choose-date
and choose-timezone
attributes to false
in the integrated date picker. The hpe-alarm
class can be used to set the clock icon.
The code for the integrated datepicker shown above is:

MatSnackBar
is a service for displaying snack-bar notifications.
A snackbar can contain either a string message or a given component.
// Simple message.
let snackBarRef = snackBar.open('Message archived');
// Simple message with an action.
let snackBarRef = snackBar.open('Message archived', 'Undo');
// Load the given component into the snackbar.
let snackBarRef = snackBar.openFromComponent(MessageArchivedComponent);
In either case, a MatSnackBarRef
is returned. This can be used to dismiss the snackbar or to
receive notification of when the snackbar is dismissed. For simple messages with an action, the
MatSnackBarRef
exposes an observable for when the action is triggered.
If you want to close a custom snackbar that was opened via openFromComponent
, from within the
component itself, you can inject the MatSnackBarRef
.
snackBarRef.afterDismissed().subscribe(() => {
console.log('The snackbar was dismissed');
});
snackBarRef.onAction().subscribe(() => {
console.log('The snackbar action was triggered!');
});
snackBarRef.dismiss();
A snackbar can be dismissed manually by calling the dismiss
method on the MatSnackBarRef
returned from the call to open
.
Only one snackbar can ever be opened at one time. If a new snackbar is opened while a previous message is still showing, the older message will be automatically dismissed.
A snackbar can also be given a duration via the optional configuration object:
snackBar.open('Message archived', 'Undo', {
duration: 3000
});
You can share data with the custom snackbar, that you opened via the openFromComponent
method,
by passing it through the data
property.
snackBar.openFromComponent(MessageArchivedComponent, {
data: 'some data'
});
To access the data in your component, you have to use the MAT_SNACK_BAR_DATA
injection token:
import {Component, Inject} from '@angular/core';
import {MAT_SNACK_BAR_DATA} from '@angular/material/snack-bar';
@Component({
selector: 'your-snackbar',
template: 'passed in {{ data }}',
})
export class MessageArchivedComponent {
constructor(@Inject(MAT_SNACK_BAR_DATA) public data: string) { }
}
When opening a custom snackbar via the snackBar.openFromComponent
method, you can use the
following directives to annotate the content and ensure that it is styled consistently compared to
snackbars opened via snackBar.open
.
matSnackBarLabel
- Marks the text of the snackbar shown to usersmatSnackBarActions
- Marks the container element containing any action buttonsmatSnackBarAction
- Marks an individual action buttonIf no annotations are used, all the content will be treated as text content.
If you want to override the default snack bar options, you can do so using the
MAT_SNACK_BAR_DEFAULT_OPTIONS
injection token.
@NgModule({
providers: [
{provide: MAT_SNACK_BAR_DEFAULT_OPTIONS, useValue: {duration: 2500}}
]
})
MatSnackBar
announces messages via an aria-live
region. While announcements use the polite
setting by default, you can customize this by setting the politeness
property of
MatSnackBarConfig
.
MatSnackBar
does not move focus to the snackbar element. Moving focus like this would disrupt
users in the middle of a workflow. For any action offered in the snackbar, your application should
provide an alternative way to perform the action. Alternative interactions are typically keyboard
shortcuts or menu options. You should dismiss the snackbar once the user performs its corresponding
action. A snackbar can contain a single action with an additional optional "dismiss" or "cancel"
action.
Avoid setting a duration
for snackbars that have an action available, as screen reader users may
want to navigate to the snackbar element to activate the action. If the user has manually moved
their focus within the snackbar, you should return focus somewhere that makes sense in the context
of the user's workflow.


rules.Rmd
The package comes with basic functions to specify constraints within your optimizer model, in order to better tune your lineups.
First step here is to get player IDs. Using an optimizer object, you can get individual player IDs by name like so:
# Opt is an optimizer object
single_player_id <- get_player_id(opt, name = 'Sidney Crosby')
Or, you can use get_player_data
, which will return a data.frame of player data, where you can filter by name to get IDs
player_data <- get_player_data(opt)
multiple_player_ids <- player_data[fullname %in% c('Carey Price', 'Sidney Crosby')]$id
If you’d like to omit specific players, you can block by ID.
# Single Player
opt <- block_players_by_id(opt, player_ids = single_player_id)
# Blocking multiple players uses the same syntax
opt <- block_players_by_id(opt, player_ids = multiple_player_ids)
If you want to ensure that specific players are included in all lineups.
# As with blocking, player_ids can be a scalar or vector of IDs
opt <- lock_players_by_id(opt, player_ids = pids)
Useful in cases where you want to stack players from the same team together. For instance, you may want to stack a QB and a WR together.
# Stacking QB and WR from the same team together
opt <- opt %>%
add_team_stack(positions = c('QB', 'WR'))
You can specify the number of stacks - so if you want TWO separate QB/WR stacks, you can use:
# Stacking QB and WR from the same team together
opt <- opt %>%
add_team_stack(positions = c('QB', 'WR'), nstacks = 2)
At times, you may wish to have an additional optional position; say, you want to stack a QB/WR pair and one additional player of either TE, RB, or WR:
# Stacking QB and WR from the same team together
opt <- opt %>%
add_team_stack(positions = c('QB', 'WR'), opt_positions = c('TE','WR','RB'))
Lastly, for HOCKEY, add_team_stack can accept an additional parameter, within_lines
, which when set to TRUE, will limit the possible stacks specifically to include players on the same line. Note, this is represented in the depth
slot for players, so it requires that one set specific values of depth (e.g., Sidney Crosby is depth = 1, whereas Evgeni Malkin is depth = 2) for each player.
# Stacking QB and WR from the same team together
opt <- opt %>%
add_team_stack(positions = c('C', 'W'), opt_positions = c('D'), within_lines = TRUE)
Useful in cases where you want to ensure opposing positions from two teams aren’t included in the lineup, like preventing one team’s QB and the other team’s DST.
Here’s an example that prevents the lineups from including one team’s goalie and any forward or defenseman on the opposing team.
opt <- opt %>%
restrict_opposing_positions(pos1 = c('C','W','D'), pos2 = 'G')
When you want to ensure that two positions from opposite teams are included. For example, if you want to ensure that the lineups included at least one pair of Team A’s QB and Team B’s WR.
opt <- opt %>%
force_opposing_positions(pos1 = 'QB', pos2 = 'WR')
# Set Carey Price's maximum exposure to .75
carey_price_id <- get_player_id(opt, name = 'Carey Price')
opt <- opt %>%
set_player_max_exp(carey_price_id, .75)
# Set Nate Mackinnon's minimum exposure to .6
mackinnon_id <- get_player_id(opt, name = 'Nate MacKinnon')
opt <- opt %>%
set_player_min_exp(mackinnon_id, .6)
Sometimes you want to set global exposures, so that no single player is selected for a lineup more than X% of the time. You can use the global maximum exposure for that.
NOTE: Individual player exposures supersede the global exposures. So, if you set Sidney Crosby’s Max-Exposure to .8, and the global max to .5, Sidney Crosby may end up in 80% of your lineups, while no other player will be greater than 50%.
The following sets the global max exposure to 50% – so no single player will be selected in more than 50% of lineups. (The actual percentage of lineups can fluctuate slightly dependent on whether the total number of lineups you produce is evenly divisible by the percentage exposure)
opt <- opt %>%
set_max_exposure(.5)
This has no effect on slates where no FLEX/UTIL positions are included.
# Set the FLEX or UTIL position in the lineup to include only WR
opt <- opt %>%
set_flex_positions(positions = c('WR'))
# Or set it to by WR or RB
opt <- opt %>%
set_flex_positions(positions = c('WR', 'RB'))
Set the maximum number of players allowed to repeat across lineups. This is useful for increasing cross-lineup variability.
# Set it so that the maximum number of players shared across lineups is 5
opt <- opt %>%
set_max_overlap(overlap = 5)
# Set the minimum budget to 40000
opt <- opt %>%
set_min_budget(40000)
# Set the maximum budget to 45000
opt <- opt %>%
set_min_budget(45000)
This applies to Draftking’s Captain Mode and Fanduel’s MVP mode, where one player is designated a multiplier position, where their salary and pts are doubled.
Sometimes, you may want to limit the set of players who are eligible for this position (e.g., you definitely want either a QB or a WR, not DST or TE)
# Specific the multiplier position to be either a QB or a WR
opt <- opt %>%
set_multiplier_position(positions = c('QB', 'WR'))
In dfsOptimizer
variance can added as a percentage change from the projected points. In other words, if you add a global variance of 10%, a player with a projected 60 points may enter the model with anywhere between 54 and 66 points, while a player with projected 20 points will have a range of 18 to 22.
This variance can be set globally, but can also be set at the player level.
Note well that like exposure levels, player-level variance supersedes global variance. So you can set a global variance, then specify variance for select players individually.
# Set Optimizer global variance to 10%
opt <- opt %>%
set_global_variance(variance = .10)
# Set Carey Price's fpts to vary by plus-or-minus 25%
ID <- get_player_id(opt, 'Carey Price')
opt <- opt %>%
set_player_variance(id = ID, variance = .25)
Several methods exist for setting team-specific values.
To increase variance in your lineups, you may wish to specify the number of teams to use. Note that this value has a default that’s based on the sport, site, and contest type, so changing it may create lineups that don’t meet slate requirements.
# Set minimum number of teams to 6
opt <- set_min_teams(opt, min_teams = 6)
Users may want to limit the number of teams selected in a given lineup in order to maximize team stacking possibilities.
# Set maximum number of teams to 6
opt <- set_max_teams(opt, max_teams = 6)
You can also specific how different teams should be represented in the lineups.
Provide instructions for a maximum number of teams.
# Force the lineup to include a maximum of two players
# from BUF, and prevent any CLE players from being included in the lineup
opt <- set_players_per_team(object = opt,
players_per_team = list(BUF = 2, CLE = 0))
You can set the lineup to use an exact number of players by setting exact = TRUE
# Set lineup to include exactly three SF players, and exactly two DAL players
opt <- set_players_per_team(object = opt,
players_per_team = list(SF = 3, DAL = 2),
exact = TRUE)
By passing a logical vector to exact, you can specify whether to use max or exact values for each team in players_per_team
independently.
# Include up to 3 players from NYG, and exactly two players from TEN
opt <- set_players_per_team(object = opt,
players_per_team = list(NYG = 3, TEN = 2),
exact = c(FALSE, TRUE))

Add orange, cardmom and chocolate to a basic shortbread recipe - a great Christmas gift idea from Great British Bake Off winner Candice.
Remove the seeds from the cardamom pods and grind in a pestle and mortar. Put in a bowl with the sugars and orange zest. Mash them together using the back of a spoon so the oils get into the sugar and you can smell the orange and cardamom.
Add the softened butter and mix until combined. Add the flour and salt then mix with your hands until only just combined (do not over-work the dough). Divide into two pieces.
Add the half the almonds and 50g/1¾oz of the chocolate to one piece of dough. Mix it in with your hands.
Flatten both pieces of dough, wrap in cling film and put in the fridge for 20–30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4.
On a lightly floured surface roll out both pieces of dough to 1.25cm/½in thick. Cut out biscuits using star, heart-shaped or other Christmas cutters.
Transfer the biscuits to a lined baking tray, leaving a little space between them, and put in the freezer for 10 minutes.
Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden-brown. Leave to cool on a wire rack.
Sprinkle the chocolate and almond shortbread with icing sugar.
Gently melt the remaining chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water.
Dip the corners or sides of the plain orange shortbread into the chocolate then sprinkle with the remaining toasted almonds. Lay on a silicone sheet or baking paper to set. Store them in a glass jar or wrap in clear plastic and make them into gifts.

Creator: Dean Hiller<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Puts up walls in a the same source tree to ensure that designs are not violated
This task helps someone separate out packages and prevent dependencies from occurring on accident. For example, if there are three packages in one source tree
This task is for low level design. For architectural walls like client and server, I would suggest using multiple source trees and compiling those source trees independently as two different ant compile targets.
One pattern I personally like to follow can be seen on the vmaster project on sourceforge. Instructions to check it out and look at are HERE. The interesting files in vmaster to look at our here....
| Attribute | Description | Required |
| walls | Specifies the external dependency file to use(see example below) | Either this or a nested walls element is required |
| intermediaryBuildDir | Specifies scratch area for the compilewithwalls task to do the building and ensure dependencies are not violated | required |
This task can contain one nested javac task and one nested walls task. See the javac task for it's attributes and nested elements.
The nested walls element or the walls attribute must be specified. Only one may be used. The walls element contains nested package elements. These nested package elements have the following attributes. If any package depends on another, it must be listed after the package it depends on in the walls element.
| Attribute | Description | Required |
| name | A smaller nickname for the package to reference in depends | Required |
| package | The package to compile such as biz.xsoftware.* to include the immediate package only or biz.xsoftware.** to include biz.xsoftware and all subpackages. | Required |
| depends | If a package need one of the previously specified packages to compile, it's name would be added here in a comma separated list. For example depends="modA,modB" | Optional |
<compilewithwalls> <walls> <package name="modA" package="biz.xsoftware.mod.modA"/> <package name="modB" package="biz.xsoftware.mod.modB"/> <package name="mod" package="biz.xsoftware.mod.modA" depends="modA,modB"/> </walls> <javac></javac> </compilewithwalls>
Notice that the package named mod had to come after the packages it depended on. Now if anybody puts code in modA that uses classes in modB, the build will break telling them they are violating a design constraint. I personally have had many a devoloper accidentally put dependencies in that we agreed in the design should not be there. This includes myself.

Sizzling on-screen chemistry
by Manila Standard ShowbizLead actors Coleen Garcia and Edgar Allan Guzman display exceptional on-screen chemistry in the official trailer of their latest film, Mia
, released by Insight 360 Films in partnership with Viva Films.
Directed by award-winning filmmaker Veronica Velasco, Mia
is a romantic comedy film about a doctor Mia Salazar (Coleen) and a nerdy forester Jay Policarpio (EA).
Jay, who transforms mined-out land into rainforests, pursues the self-destructive alcoholic, Mia, who recently joined the government’s Doctor To The Barrios program to heal from the tragedy of her fiance’s death.
Showing that conflict sometimes belies an undercurrent of passion, Mia and Jay’s occasional clashes soon create compelling chemistry between them.
The trailer, which was released on various prominent Youtube and Facebook channels including Insight 360, Mia: The Movie, CinemaBravo, and Design Pirate PH, also features the film’s official soundtrack titled “Sa Iba Na Lang” performed by duo B.O.U. and written by Jayson Dedal
.
Other cast members include veteran actors Yayo Aguila and William Martinez, Billy Crawford, Star Orjaliza, Jeremy Domingo, Sunshine Teodoro, Pau Benitez, and Xenia Barrameda
.
The screenplay was co-written by Velasco and Jinky Laurel while Noel Teehankee
served as its director of photography.
Produced by public relations and digital marketing expert Chris Cahilig, Mia
is scheduled to be in cinemas on Jan. 15, 2020.

By returning the index of the found match this gives you a great way to carve up string. |
|
string.match(s, pattern [, init]) |
capture |
Returns the capture (instance of the found pattern), or nil if none were found. Quick way of getting a small string out of a big one, or of detecting whether the pattern exists. |
|
string.gmatch(s, pattern) |
iterator |
The iterator repeatedly finds the next instance of the found pattern (capture), so it can be used in a generic while loop. |

In this posting I’ll discuss a litle bit about some of the predictive performance metrics available. And be aware that for now I’ll be focused in the particular context of predictive modeling for binary target.
When working with data modeling you must have a set of metrics in mind to help you decide if the model is performing well and which model is the “winner”. Also, you must be aware about avoid overfiting. These performance metrics will guide you by giving you evidences if you’re in the right path or not. If you’re done with the modelling process or if you must continue digging and trying.
Before we start getting into more technical, I would like also to point that the choice of the metrics (or metrics!) to use sometimes depends of the context of your goals. Each performance metrics “focus” on (and measure) some particular charactheristic of the data. So you’ll find out that your “winner model” could be different ones depending on which metric you want to use.
The R function I wrote to make my life easier during the work can be found here, with the code to calculate each metric. Hope it can help you too.
# Goodness of Fit Metrics (for prediction models with target [0;1])
funcGFMmetrics =
function (var.target="", var.prediction="", var.df="")
{
...
}
One important thing to mention is that for the metrics that requires a predicted
flag for each row (usuall used as score>0.5
), this function set the predicted=1
flag for rows that satisfy score>mean(score)
, otherwise predicted=0
.
I’d rather this way since not all of my projects (or approaches) considers a 50/50 balanced response rates.
This is an example of a function call with the results saved in metrics
object:
metrics = funcGFMmetrics (var.target="target", var.prediction="prob", var.df="df")
A usually set the paramenters input of my function as a text, so it is easy to automate the call of a function in some procedures. As a result of the above line of code you get a vector listing all of performance metrics:
> metrics
AUC KS GINI LogLoss Kappa F1 Accuracy ErrorRate Precision Recall
0.80267 0.44472 0.60534 0.73523 0.36063 0.79377 0.71722 0.28278 0.89089 0.71575
So metrics
become an object in R session, and if needed you can extract a specific metric just passing its index. To call KS
value, you do:
> metrics[2]
KS
0.44472
I’m supposing you’re familiar with the definition of such metrics, so this is just a little hint of the meaning of these measures:
That’s all folks! ;-)


The year is 1991 and I am a typical 4 or 5 year old in kindergarten.  To me they were just Mom and Dad, but to my mostly white elementary school peers there was something odd about the dichotomy of one being "white" and the other being "black". As such, they frequently asked me to explain myself and why I was a different color altogether from either of my parents. These were answers that I did not have, and as a typical mamas boy, I went to my mom for the answer.
After inquiring with her about my "color situation" she sat me down on the third step of our green carpeted stairwell to have me listen as she gave me information that would change everything in regards to how I saw myself and the world around me.  I would think about this mysterious women every single day for the next 25 years until we were reunited.
I don't think words can accurately describe the significance of that moment for me, and I can't recall much else. I asked a lot of questions; I was told that she ran track and played basketball. This is where my love for the two comes from. I was told that even though she gave me up that she loved and I truly believed it.  This was my first real memory and the moment when I truly began to love and appreciate life.
Once there were two women who never knew each other.
One you do not remember, the other you call mother.
Two different lives, shaped to make your one
One became your guiding star, the other became your sun.
The first gave you life and the second taught you to live it.
The first gave you a need for love, and the second was there to give it.

One gave you a seed of talent, the other gave you an aim.
One gave you emotions, the other calmed your fears.
One saw your first sweet smile, the other dried your tears.
One gave you up ... that's all she could do.
The other prayed for a child and God led her straight to you.
And now you ask me, through your fears,
the age old question unanswered throughout the years...
Heredity or environment, which are you the product of?
Neither, my darling neither.
Just two different kinds of love.
-Peace

cRonstrue
cRonstrue is a JavaScript library that parses a cron expression and outputs a human readable description of the cron schedule. For example, given the expression "*/5 * * * *" it will output "Every 5 minutes".
This library was ported from the original C# implemenation called cron-expression-descriptor and is also available in a few other languages.
Features
- Zero dependencies
- Supports all cron expression special characters including * / , - ? L W, #
- Supports 5, 6 (w/ seconds or year), or 7 (w/ seconds and year) part cron expressions
- Supports Quartz Job Scheduler cron expressions
- i18n support with 24 languages
Installation
cRonstrue is exported as an UMD module so it will work in an AMD, CommonJS or browser global context.
First, install the module:
npm i cronstrue-zh_cn
Then, depending upon your usage context, add a reference to it:
Node
var cronstrue = require('cronstrue-zh_cn');
ES6/TypeScript
import cronstrue from 'cronstrue-zh_cn';
Browser
The cronstrue-zh_cn.min.js
file from the /dist
folder in the npm package should be served to the browser. There are no dependencies so you can simply include the library in a <script>
tag.
<script src="cronstrue-zh_cn.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
var cronstrue = window.cronstrue;
</script>
CDN
A simple way to load the library in a browser is by using the unpkg CDN, which is a "fast, global content delivery network for everything on npm". To use it, include a script tag like this in your file:
<script<EMAIL_ADDRESS>async></script>
Using the "latest" tag will result in a 302 redirect to the latest version tag so it is highly recommended to use a specific version tag such as<EMAIL_ADDRESS>to avoid this redirect.
Usage
cronstrue.toString("* * * * *");
> "Every minute"
cronstrue.toString("0 23 ? * MON-FRI");
> "At 11:00 PM, Monday through Friday"
cronstrue.toString("23 12 * * SUN#2");
> "At 12:23 PM, on the second Sunday of the month"
cronstrue.toString("23 14 * * SUN#2", { use24HourTimeFormat: true });
> "At 14:23, on the second Sunday of the month"
cronstrue.toString("* * * ? * 2-6/2", { dayOfWeekStartIndexZero: false });
> "Every second, every 2 days of the week, Monday through Friday"
For more usage examples, including a demonstration of how cRonstrue can handle some very complex cron expressions, you can reference the unit tests.
Demo
A demo is available here here.
i18n
To use the i18n support cRonstrue provides, you must use the packaged library that contains the locale transalations. Once you do this, you can pass the name of a supported locale as an option to cronstrue.toString()
. For example, for the es (Spanish) locale, you would use: cronstrue.toString("* * * * *", { locale: "es" });
.
Node
var cronstrue = require('cronstrue/i18n');
cronstrue.toString("*/5 * * * *", { locale: "fr" });
Browser
The cronstrue-i18n.min.js
file from the /dist
folder in the npm package should be served to the browser.
<script src="cronstrue-i18n.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
cronstrue.toString("*/5 * * * *", { locale: "fr" });
</script>

An Iterator is a wrapper to JavaScript's iterators that adds functional operators to it (such as map, reduce...).
Most of its methods return a new Iterator, but they don't execute any operation until explicitly requested. This is because the functions are executed lazily. E.g. by iterating with a for..of, or by calling toArray or other methods that consume the Iterator.
Thanks to the laziness of the execution (achieved through generators), infinite Iterators can be manipulated.
This library depends heavily on ES6 features, such as generators, Maps, Sets, the for..of construct. For an EcmaScript 5 (ES6 features supported) implementation of some of these concepts, please see http://winterbe.github.io/streamjs/
You can install it via NPM.
npm install iteratorgenerator
Then you can simply require them in your project.
const Iterator = require('iteratorgenerator')
Or you can include them directly in a Web page, thanks to RawGit

"There is no love sincerer than the love of food," George Bernard Shaw said. Judging by the number of amazing dishes out there, he was right.But which are the tastiest? Which are the best foods? And what are destinations that serve them?We've scoured the planet for what we think are 50 of the most delicious foods ever created. For now, feast your eyes and control your drooling, as we reveal some of the world's best foods that can help you make travel plans. .
Can you listen, as the soil receives the seed, and see if the mind is capable of being free, empty? It can be empty only by understanding all its projections and activities, not off and on, but from day to day, from moment to moment. Then you will find the answer; then you will see that change comes without your asking, that the state of creative emptiness is not a thing to be cultivated – it is there, it comes darkly, without any invitation, and only in that state is there a possibility of renewal, newness and revolution.As long as you are attempting to be creative within the field of your conditioning, you cannot be creative

Acrophobia is defined as a fear of heights. Unlike a specific phobia like aerophobia – fear of flying -and other specific phobias, acrophobia can cause a person to fear a variety of things related to being far from the ground. Depending on the severity of the phobia, an acrophobic person may equally fear being on a high floor of a building or simply climbing a ladder.

FURY, THE (director: Brian De Palma; screenwriter: from an original story by John Farris; cinematographer: Richard H. Kline; editor: Paul Hirsch; cast: Kirk Douglas (Peter Sandza), John Cassavetes (Childress), Carrie Snodgrass (Hester), Charles Durning (Dr. Jim McKeever), Amy Irving (Gillian Bellaver), Fiona Lewis (Dr. Susan Charles), Andrew Stevens (Robin Sandza), Carol Rossen (Dr. Ellen Lindstrom), Jane Lambert (Vivian Knuckells), Joyce Easton (Katharine Bellaver), William Finley (Raymond Dunwoodie), Dennis Franz (Bob, The Policeman), Michael O'Dwyer (Marty, The Policeman), 1978)
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
Brian De Palma's idea of a thriller is short-changed as far as plot and substance in favor of style. He has created a silly but entertaining film, where one shocking scene tops another, and numerous Hollywood cheesy gimmicks are used instead of relying on John Farris' tightly drawn suspense story. Tis a pity such crass commercialization should rule the day for De Palma, instead of artistic integrity! This follow-up to his commercially successful Carrie, takes the director further into the ridiculous realm of demonic possessions and all that would imply to a Hollywood director who is looking to make a popcorn movie.
It is 1977 and someplace in Israel the widowed Peter Sandza (Kirk Douglas) is on the beach with his teenager son Robin (Andrew Stevens), and colleague, Childress (John Cassavetes), who have known each other for some twenty years, where they both work at a secret government agency for psychic research. Suddenly, after Robin is told by his dad that he will be going to a special school in Chicago for his psychic gifts, he is alone with Childress and a group of Arabs arrive by boat and an Arab machine-gunner on a tower starts shooting at Peter, but he escapes and grabs a dead Arab's gun, wounding Childress when he realizes that he is behind the attack. Childress kidnaps Robin because he has a special gift for telekinetic communication, which he intends to use for secretive government activities.
The next thing we know, we're in Chicago and Peter is looking for his son, but is being tailed by Childress's secret federal agents. Peter has hired the psychic Raymond Dunwoodie to get him a more gifted psychic to track down Robin. But Dunwoodie is being tailed by Childress' men and they trace Peter to a hotel through him. Peter jumps out of his hotel window in his underwear, bursts into someone's apartment and steals their clothes and dyes his hair, and goes out into the Chicago streets. But his disguise wasn't good enough, as he is spotted by the secret agents. So he car jacks a brand new Caddy, with two of Chicago's finest sitting in it and takes them for a daredevil ride, trying to avoid the pursuing agents. There's some comedy to be had, as the policeman who owns the car, only hopes his brand new car doesn't get scratched, and after riding over bridges in the fog and other dangerous crossings at high speed, the car doesn't have a scratch on it. But at the last minute, Peter has to drive the car into the lake in order to fool his pursuers of his whereabouts.
The story also tells about another psychic, a teenager, Gillian Bellaver (Amy Irving). She comes from a wealthy family and was the one that Dunwoodie was about to get for Peter before he was spotted by the secret agents. Gillian has trouble with the children in her prep school because of her genius in psychic powers; she therefore talks her mother into enrolling her in a special school that does research in these matters, little realizing that Childress monitors the school.
Peter has been looking the last eleven months for Robin to no avail. But he met someone who works in the research clinic, Hester (Snodgrass), and she believed him when she heard his story. She keeps him in contact with any developments in the clinic, and when Gillian arrives and demonstrates that she is the real thing, by making everyone she touches bleed profusely and also has disturbing visions, there is little doubt that she's the real thing. Peter is told about her. But, unfortunately, there are spies in the clinic, like Dr. Ellen Lindstrom (Rossen), who tell Childress about her. The director of the clinic, Dr. Jim McKeever (Durning), is forced to let Childress take her, even though he doesn't want to let her go to these awful people. The girl has the same power as Robin and the two can even communicate with each other when at far distances through their ESP skills.
Meanwhile Robin is told his father is dead (I wonder- if he's such a great psychic why doesn't he realize that this isn't so!). He has been taken to a secret estate where a team of psychics are training him. He has developed his psychic skills to a great degree but has also developed a serious personality disorder and is being constantly drugged and is under constant stress. The attractive Dr. Susan Charles (Fiona) is in charge of his training program and tries to keep the young man happy by providing him with her sexual pleasures, which he appreciates; but, he still distrusts her.
Any hope for this being a plot oriented film soon goes down the drain and the movie turns into a horror film, with special effects galore, rolling demonic flashing eyes, and shocking scenes with blood and gore. The two special psychic prodigies have different reactions to discovering there is another like them in the world. Robin is jealous, figuring she will replace him and he will no longer get such good treatment. She, on the other hand, wants to help him, after Hester tells her of what is going on. Peter plans to get her to escape from the clinic, and to show him where his son is. The escape works but is costly, as Hester suffers a gruesome death, as she is hit by a car driven by one of the agents who was just shot by Peter.
 But if you hang around for the ending, then you will finally see Childress get what he deserves the next morning, as he comes into Gillian's bedroom and sweet talks her into believing that he will treat her as a father would, knowing that he needs her powers with the demise of Robin. But Gillian rolls her supernatural eyes and blinds him, and then explodes his head, which De Palma shoots again and again in slow motion. How wonderful!
Cassavetes is a great villain. But there's really not much in this film that is plausible, except a chance to escape from the world for two hours.

Don’t go on the name. :P. The name is just a mixture of SMS and MSG (seriously! :D ).
SMSG is a Messaging Package or SMS Package that was created for the ease of sending messages using the APIs of Popular Service Providers. SMSG was made keeping in mind the possibilities of SMS Technology.
In today’s world the SMS have been depreciated from normal people’s life, but we Programmers and Coders have many possibilities with SMS Technology, still. SMS is very Important in our lives. See how below:
Just a one line composer
command:
composer require secrethash/smsg
That’s It!
Setting up SMSG is also not difficult. Just follow the below steps for successfully setting up the package.
You will have to add the SmsgServiceProvider
in the Provider’s array:
config\app.php
file.'providers'
array.Secrethash\Smsg\SmsgServiceProvider::class,
The working should always be easy, right? Facade makes it happen. After you register the SMSG’s Facade, you will be able to access it via SMSG
facade directly. For example:
SMSG::showbal('msg91'); // outputs balance for MSG91.com
Let’s set it up:
config\app.php
'aliases'
array'SMSG' => Secrethash\Smsg\Facade\Smsg::class,
Hurrah!
You will have to publish the SMSG’s Config File to get started with it. Run the Command:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider=Secrethash\Smsg\SmsgServiceProvider
Now open the SMSG configuration file which must be at config\smsg.php
and edit according to your Provider and needs.
Done!
Working is very easy with SMSG. There are certain functions that are needed to be triggered to get the desired work done. All the available functions are listed below:
To send a message using SMSG you just need to trigger theSMSG::send()
function with the required parameters.
Mobile Number(s): It is the first parameter to be passed. There can be single mobile number or multiple mobile numbers. Multiple Mobile Numbers should be separated by commas for eg:<PHONE_NUMBER>,<PHONE_NUMBER>
.
NOTE: Do Not provide multiple mobile numbers in an array. Separate it by commas only.
Sender ID: The sender ID is the ID that is shown on the receiver’s mobile in place of a sender’s mobile number. For Eg: DM-SMSG
. Sender ID should be in supplied in Plain Text Only.
Message: Message is basically the body of SMS that you want to send.
Provider: Provider is not important to be filled. If you want to use a different provider for a particular SMS then you should provide it’s valid ID as the Input for 4th Parameter, otherwise the default provider will be used as defined in your config\smsg.php
file.
NOTE: Find the Available Provider’s ID below.
Route: Route is the passage of sending a message. Mostly, there are only 2 Routes:
Here is an example on feeding the parameters with Inputs:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Request;
use SMSG;
class SmsgDemoController extends Controller
{
// Some Code
# More Code
$mobile = '1234567890';
$sender = 'SMSG';
$msg = 'Hey, John Doe! Your Verification Code is: 7cx50S';
$provider = 'msg91';
$route = '4';
// Will also catch the output
$trigger = SMSG::send($mobile, $sender, $msg, $provider, $route);
echo $trigger;
}
Try it yourself.
Currently all the Providers provide the possibility to check your balance virtually. With this function you can be updated to your balance with available balance on your dashboard. You can also work with this function to automate a reminder to your email or mobile, via sms, and never upset the client.
To perform the check, use SMSG::showbal()
. This will return the available balance in your account using the default provider and API key of default route.
Feed the parameters with input to get more flexible data.
Note: None of the below parameters are Compulsory.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Request;
use SMSG;
class SmsgDemoController extends Controller
{
$trigger = SMSG::showbal('msg91', '4', 'XYZ_API_KEY');
echo $trigger;
// Outputs the balance of Transaction route of user with API XYZ_API_KEY on MSG91.com
}
MSG91 is a SMS Service Provider. They have a great set of REST APIs that gives the flexibility in each and every thing. The Robust API is perfect for an app to that sends a large number of request. APIs are Fast and the Delivery System is also quick.
| Function Supported | Description | Provider ID |
|---|---|---|
send() |
Sends the message | msg91 |
showbal() |
Checks the available balance | msg91 |
More Providers Coming Soon!

In order to build MLD2P4, the first step is to use the configure
script
in the main directory to generate the necessary makefile.
As a minimal example consider the following:
./configure --with-psblas=PSB-INSTALL-DIRwhich assumes that the various MPI compilers and support libraries are available in the standard directories on the system, and specifies only the PSBLAS install directory (note that the latter directory must be specified with an absolute path). The full set of options may be looked at by issuing the command
./configure --help
, which produces:
`configure' configures MLD2P4 2.1.1 to adapt to many kinds of systems. Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]... To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as VAR=VALUE. See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables. Defaults for the options are specified in brackets. Configuration: -h, --help display this help and exit --help=short display options specific to this package --help=recursive display the short help of all the included packages -V, --version display version information and exit -q, --quiet, --silent do not print `checking ...' messages --cache-file=FILE cache test results in FILE [disabled] -C, --config-cache alias for `--cache-file=config.cache' -n, --no-create do not create output files --srcdir=DIR find the sources in DIR [configure dir or `..'] Installation directories: --prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in PREFIX [/usr/local] --exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX [PREFIX] By default, `make install' will install all the files in `/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc. You can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix', for instance `--prefix=$HOME'. For better control, use the options below. Fine tuning of the installation directories: --bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin] --sbindir=DIR system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin] --libexecdir=DIR program executables [EPREFIX/libexec] --sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc] --sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data [PREFIX/com] --localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var] --libdir=DIR object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib] --includedir=DIR C header files [PREFIX/include] --oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include] --datarootdir=DIR read-only arch.-independent data root [PREFIX/share] --datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data [DATAROOTDIR] --infodir=DIR info documentation [DATAROOTDIR/info] --localedir=DIR locale-dependent data [DATAROOTDIR/locale] --mandir=DIR man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man] --docdir=DIR documentation root [DATAROOTDIR/doc/mld2p4] --htmldir=DIR html documentation [DOCDIR] --dvidir=DIR dvi documentation [DOCDIR] --pdfdir=DIR pdf documentation [DOCDIR] --psdir=DIR ps documentation [DOCDIR] Program names: --program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names --program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names --program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed program names Optional Features: --disable-option-checking ignore unrecognized --enable/--with options --disable-FEATURE do not include FEATURE (same as --enable-FEATURE=no) --enable-FEATURE[=ARG] include FEATURE [ARG=yes] --enable-silent-rules less verbose build output (undo: "make V=1") --disable-silent-rules verbose build output (undo: "make V=0") --enable-dependency-tracking do not reject slow dependency extractors --disable-dependency-tracking speeds up one-time build --enable-serial Specify whether to enable a fake mpi library to run in serial mode. --enable-long-integers Specify usage of 64 bits integers. Optional Packages: --with-PACKAGE[=ARG] use PACKAGE [ARG=yes] --without-PACKAGE do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no) --with-psblas=DIR The install directory for PSBLAS, for example, --with-psblas=/opt/packages/psblas-3.5 --with-psblas-incdir=DIR Specify the directory for PSBLAS C includes. --with-psblas-moddir=DIR Specify the directory for PSBLAS Fortran modules. --with-psblas-libdir=DIR Specify the directory for PSBLAS library. --with-ccopt additional [CCOPT] flags to be added: will prepend to [CCOPT] --with-fcopt additional [FCOPT] flags to be added: will prepend to [FCOPT] --with-libs List additional link flags here. For example, --with-libs=-lspecial_system_lib or --with-libs=-L/path/to/libs --with-clibs additional [CLIBS] flags to be added: will prepend to [CLIBS] --with-flibs additional [FLIBS] flags to be added: will prepend to [FLIBS] --with-library-path additional [LIBRARYPATH] flags to be added: will prepend to [LIBRARYPATH] --with-include-path additional [INCLUDEPATH] flags to be added: will prepend to [INCLUDEPATH] --with-module-path additional [MODULE_PATH] flags to be added: will prepend to [MODULE_PATH] --with-extra-libs List additional link flags here. For example, --with-extra-libs=-lspecial_system_lib or --with-extra-libs=-L/path/to/libs --with-blas=<lib> use BLAS library <lib> --with-blasdir=<dir> search for BLAS library in <dir> --with-lapack=<lib> use LAPACK library <lib> --with-mumps=LIBNAME Specify the libname for MUMPS. Default: autodetect with minimum "-lmumps_common -lpord" --with-mumpsdir=DIR Specify the directory for MUMPS library and includes. Note: you will need to add auxiliary libraries with --extra-libs; this depends on how MUMPS was configured and installed, at a minimum you will need SCALAPACK and BLAS --with-mumpsincdir=DIR Specify the directory for MUMPS includes. --with-mumpsmoddir=DIR Specify the directory for MUMPS Fortran modules. --with-mumpslibdir=DIR Specify the directory for MUMPS library. --with-umfpack=LIBNAME Specify the library name for UMFPACK and its support libraries. Default: "-lumfpack -lamd" --with-umfpackdir=DIR Specify the directory for UMFPACK library and includes. --with-umfpackincdir=DIR Specify the directory for UMFPACK includes. --with-umfpacklibdir=DIR Specify the directory for UMFPACK library. --with-superlu=LIBNAME Specify the library name for SUPERLU library. Default: "-lsuperlu" --with-superludir=DIR Specify the directory for SUPERLU library and includes. --with-superluincdir=DIR Specify the directory for SUPERLU includes. --with-superlulibdir=DIR Specify the directory for SUPERLU library. --with-superludist=LIBNAME Specify the libname for SUPERLUDIST library. Requires you also specify SuperLU. Default: "-lsuperlu_dist" --with-superludistdir=DIR Specify the directory for SUPERLUDIST library and includes. --with-superludistincdir=DIR Specify the directory for SUPERLUDIST includes. --with-superludistlibdir=DIR Specify the directory for SUPERLUDIST library. Some influential environment variables: FC Fortran compiler command FCFLAGS Fortran compiler flags LDFLAGS linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a nonstandard directory <lib dir> LIBS libraries to pass to the linker, e.g. -l<library> CC C compiler command CFLAGS C compiler flags CPPFLAGS (Objective) C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if you have headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir> MPICC MPI C compiler command MPIFC MPI Fortran compiler command CPP C preprocessor Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations. Report bugs to <https://github.com/sfilippone/mld2p4-2/issues>.
For instance, if a user has built and installed PSBLAS 3.5 under the
/opt
directory and is
using the SuiteSparse package (which includes UMFPACK), then MLD2P4
might be configured with:
./configure --with-psblas=/opt/psblas-3.5/ \ --with-umfpackincdir=/usr/include/suitesparse/Once the configure script has completed execution, it will have generated the file
Make.inc
which will then be used by all
Makefiles in the directory tree; this file will be copied in the
install directory under the name Make.inc.MLD2P4
.
To use the MUMPS solver package,
the user has to add the appropriate options to the configure script;
by default we are looking for the libraries
-ldmumps -lsmumps
-lzmumps -lcmumps -mumps_common -lpord
.
MUMPS often uses additional packages such as ScaLAPACK, ParMETIS,
SCOTCH, as well as enabling OpenMP; in such cases it is necessary to
add linker options with the --with-extra-libs
configure option.
To build the library the user will now enter
makefollowed (optionally) by
make install

The Biweekly Mortgage - Who Needs It?

With email spam becoming more pervasive as everyone tries to get rich
quick on the Internet, these ads are popping up with troublesome
regularity.
The ads promote a Biweekly Mortgage and for the most part, do not come
from a mortgage lender. Exclamation points punctuate practically every
claim:
- No closing costs!
- No refinancing!
- No points!
- No credit check!
- No appraisal!
- Save thousands!

To achieve these wonderful savings all you have to do is allow half of
your mortgage payment to be deducted from your checking account every
two weeks. It’s easy. Of course, there is a small set-up fee and usually
a transaction fee with every automatic deduction.
Essentially, the ads are truthful in almost every respect.
They just want to charge you money for something you can do on your own
for free.
The Basics:
Normally, you make twelve mortgage payments a year. Since there are
fifty-two weeks in a year, a biweekly mortgage equals 26 half-payments a
year. The equivalent would be making thirteen mortgage payments a year
instead of twelve. By applying that extra payment directly to the loan
balance as a principal reduction, your loan amortizes more quickly,
requiring fewer payments.
You save money. The ads are true.
How it Actually Works:
You cannot simply mail in half a payment every two weeks to your
mortgage lender. Since they do not accept partial payments for legal and
accounting reasons, the mortgage company would just mail your
half-payment back to you.
Instead, the biweekly mortgage company is an intermediary between you
and your mortgage lender. They automatically debit your checking account
every two weeks for half of your mortgage payment then place your funds
into a trust account. Basically, this is just a holding account for your
money. In another two weeks, there is another automatic deduction from
your checking account, and so on. When your mortgage payment is due,
your funds are withdrawn from the trust account and forwarded to your
mortgage lender.
Since you are placing funds into the trust account faster than your
mortgage payments are due, you eventually accumulate enough money to
make an extra payment. The way the cycle works, this occurs once a year.
he extra payment is applied directly to your principal balance, which
causes your loan to amortize faster, pay off more quickly and save you
thousands of dollars.
Potential Problems with the Trust Account
Because your funds are held in the trust account until your mortgage
payment is due, there are potential dangers. Not only are your funds
held in this account, but so are the funds of everyone else enrolled in
the biweekly program. That is a lot of money.
Most likely, there will be no problems.
However, if there are accounting errors, mismanagement, or even fraud,
your mortgage payment might not get made. The first hint of a problem
will probably be a phone call or letter from your mortgage lender, but
not until after your payment is already late. Since responsibility for
making the payment rests with you and not the biweekly payment company,
you may find yourself digging into your personal savings to make the
payment directly -- even though the biweekly payment company has already
collected your funds.
Later you can work out the trust account problem with your biweekly
payment company.
The Cost of the Biweekly Mortgage
There is usually a set-up fee that runs between $195 and $350, depending
on how much sales commission is paid to the individual or company
setting up the account for you. You also pay a transaction fee each time
there is an automatic deduction from your checking account and sometimes
also when the payment is made to your mortgage lender. There may also be
a periodic maintenance fee.
Meanwhile, whoever controls the trust account is earning interest on
your money.
Savings of the Biweekly Mortgage
By making principal reductions using the biweekly mortgage program, your
mortgage will amortize more quickly, saving you money. How quickly your
loan pays off depends on your interest rate and when you begin making
the biweekly payments.
On a $100,000 loan at an interest rate of eight percent, your first
principal reduction would probably be a year from now. Assuming the
principal reduction is equal to one monthly payment ($733.76), you would
save $43,852 over the life of the loan and pay it off almost seven years
early.
However, you have to deduct from those savings any amounts you paid in
set-up, transaction, and maintenance fees.
No-Cost Alternatives to the Biweekly Mortgage
Instead of hiring a company to manage your biweekly payment, you could
accomplish essentially the same thing on your own for free. Just take
your monthly payment, divide it by twelve, and add that amount to your
monthly mortgage payment. Be sure to earmark it as a principal
reduction.
The first way you save is that you do not have to pay any fees to
anyone. It’s free.
In addition to not paying fees -- using the same example as above --
your total savings on the mortgage would be $45,904. Plus the loan would
be paid off three months quicker than with the biweekly mortgage. The
reason you save more is because you are making a principal reduction
each month, instead of waiting for funds to accumulate so that you can
make one principal reduction a year.
Self-Discipline?
The biweekly mortgage companies claim that homeowners are not
disciplined enough to follow through with principal reduction plans on
their own.
However, in this technologically advanced age, banking online and
automatic deductions are readily available. You can set up your own
automatic deductions including the additional principal reduction and
have it go directly to your mortgage lender. Since the deduction occurs
automatically, just like with the biweekly mortgages, self-discipline is
not a problem.
Conclusion
The biweekly mortgage plans do not really do anything except move your
money around and charge you for it. Plus, even though the danger is
negligible, you must trust someone else to hold your money for you. If
you can do the very same thing for free, plus save yourself even more
money by doing it on your own, why pay someone else?
The biweekly mortgage plan - who needs it?
If your goal is principal reduction and saving money, then it is a good
plan. If you do it on your own instead of paying someone else to do it
for you, then it is a great plan.

These release notes cover new developer and user-facing incompatibilities, important issues, features, and major improvements.
A new config param, hbase.lease.recovery.waiting.period, is introduced for FSHDFSUtils#recoverFileLease(). It represents the amount of time, in milliseconds, that we wait after issuing recoverLease() request. The default value is 4 seconds.
This feature limits the time that unflushed data will stay in the memstore. By default a memstore will flush if data older than 1h (3600000ms) is present.
This can be configured via hbase.regionserver.optionalcacheflushinterval (default value is 3600000).
As pointed out in https://github.com/forcedotcom/phoenix/pull/131, BaseRegionObserver#preCompactScannerOpen returns null by default, which hoses any coprocessors down the line, making override of this method mandatory in all subclasses of BaseRegionObserver, when there are multiple levels of coprocessor stacking - this same behavior is present in preFlushScannerOpen and preStoreScannerOpen.
Instead, we default to returning the passed scanner so earlier coprocessor changes are preserved and still support the default "no custom scanner" by returning null (default scanner passed to each hook).

Producer at Aardman Animations specialising in games and interactive.
Generative 'artist' creating strange patterns with audio and other data.
Web designer, occasionally.
My day job is as a producer at Aardman Animations specialising in making games, interactive learning tools, web apps, and things of that ilk. Here are a small sample of them...
Currently working on a long term top secret game project. More details once it has been announced.
Digital Maker Kits // A long running HTML5 project developed with the BBC to get teenages digitally creating with visual tools. We made tools for making games, music videos, comic books, writing scipts and more, with brands like Doctor Who, Eastenders, Children in Need, 1Xtra and more - Broadcast Digital Awards - Best Children's Content - Welsh BAFTA nominee.
Hungry City // A fun little HTML5 tower defence game teaching kids about food scarcity and the need to eat insects - TIGA Best Educational Game nominee.
Charge of the Light Brigade // Prototype interactive video we made for the BBC.
Shaun in the City // App and website for the 2016 charity arts trail, using GPS to find and tick off sculptures, collect achievements, guide walking trails and the like - #1 UK app iOS and Android - Google's top 50 apps of 2015.
Shaun's Game Academy // A national initiative to give kids the power to create their own games using Scratch, learning coding and game design in the process - RTS West Award Digital Creativity.
I very much enjoy making intereting visuals things, mainly using Processing and p5js. Audioreactive screens for concerts, plotter drawings, live depth camera feed things - anything that is visually interesting.
Instagram // Where I post most of my visual sketches.
GibberSoundThing // Messing around with gibber.p5.js - this generates a random tune, and then draws some shapes from that tune and mouse position.
Shaders for Processing // A collection of shaders I have ported from ShaderToy to work with Processing 3, and played around with. VHS effects, glitch, weird ascii stuff. Will be updated as I add more.
Monokai for Processing // A dark Monokai theme to use with Processing; a bit easier on the eyes.
I like to tinker with things on the web sometimes.
Archery Scoreboard // An online archery scoreboard built in AngularJS. I think it's currently a bit broken.
Ami Elish Bridal // An elegant wedding site based on the Bones Wordpress theme.Outboxx // Custom single page scrolling site for the Bristol house mandem.
This website // Obviously.
