This module provides miscellaneous facilities for working with strings, numbers, dates, and objects and arrays of these basic types.
Creates a deep copy of a primitive type, object, or array of primitive types.
Returns whether two objects are equal.
Returns true if the given object has no properties and false otherwise. This
is O(1) (unlike Object.keys(obj).length === 0
, which is O(N)).
Returns true if the given object has an enumerable, non-inherited property
called key
. For information on enumerability and ownership of properties, see
the MDN
documentation.
Like Array.forEach, but iterates enumerable, owned properties of an object rather than elements of an array. Equivalent to:
for (var key in obj) {
if (Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(obj, key)) {
callback(key, obj[key]);
}
}
Flattens an object up to a given level of nesting, returning an array of arrays of length "depth + 1", where the first "depth" elements correspond to flattened columns and the last element contains the remaining object . For example:
flattenObject({
'I': {
'A': {
'i': {
'datum1': [ 1, 2 ],
'datum2': [ 3, 4 ]
},
'ii': {
'datum1': [ 3, 4 ]
}
},
'B': {
'i': {
'datum1': [ 5, 6 ]
},
'ii': {
'datum1': [ 7, 8 ],
'datum2': [ 3, 4 ],
},
'iii': {
}
}
},
'II': {
'A': {
'i': {
'datum1': [ 1, 2 ],
'datum2': [ 3, 4 ]
}
}
}
}, 3)
becomes:
[
[ 'I', 'A', 'i', { 'datum1': [ 1, 2 ], 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] } ],
[ 'I', 'A', 'ii', { 'datum1': [ 3, 4 ] } ],
[ 'I', 'B', 'i', { 'datum1': [ 5, 6 ] } ],
[ 'I', 'B', 'ii', { 'datum1': [ 7, 8 ], 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] } ],
[ 'I', 'B', 'iii', {} ],
[ 'II', 'A', 'i', { 'datum1': [ 1, 2 ], 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] } ]
]
This function is strict: "depth" must be a non-negative integer and "obj" must be a non-null object with at least "depth" levels of nesting under all keys.
This is similar to flattenObject
except that instead of returning an array,
this function invokes func(entry)
for each entry
in the array that
flattenObject
would return. flattenIter(obj, depth, func)
is logically
equivalent to flattenObject(obj, depth).forEach(func)
. Importantly, this
version never constructs the full array. Its memory usage is O(depth) rather
than O(n) (where n
is the number of flattened elements).
There's another difference between flattenObject
and flattenIter
that's
related to the special case where depth === 0
. In this case, flattenObject
omits the array wrapping obj
(which is regrettable).
Fetch nested property "key" from object "obj", traversing objects as needed.
For example, pluck(obj, "foo.bar.baz")
is roughly equivalent to
obj.foo.bar.baz
, except that:
pluck({}, "foo.bar")
is just undefined.pluck({ 'foo.bar': 1 }, 'foo.bar')
is 1, not undefined. This is also
true recursively, so pluck({ 'a': { 'foo.bar': 1 } }, 'a.foo.bar')
is
also 1, not undefined.Returns an element from "array" selected uniformly at random. If "array" is empty, throws an Error.
Returns true if the given string starts with the given prefix and false otherwise.
Returns true if the given string ends with the given suffix and false otherwise.
Parses the contents of str
(a string) as an integer. On success, the integer
value is returned (as a number). On failure, an error is returned describing
why parsing failed.
By default, leading and trailing whitespace characters are not allowed, nor are
trailing characters that are not part of the numeric representation. This
behaviour can be toggled by using the options below. The empty string (''
) is
not considered valid input. If the return value cannot be precisely represented
as a number (i.e., is smaller than Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER
or larger than
Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER
), an error is returned. Additionally, the string
'-0'
will be parsed as the integer 0
, instead of as the IEEE floating point
value -0
.
This function accepts both upper and lowercase characters for digits, similar to
parseInt()
, Number()
, and strtol(3C).
The following may be specified in options
:
| Option | Type | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| base | number | 10 | numeric base (radix) to use, in the range 2 to 36 |
| allowSign | boolean | true | whether to interpret any leading + (positive) and - (negative) characters |
| allowImprecise | boolean | false | whether to accept values that may have lost precision (past MAX_SAFE_INTEGER or below MIN_SAFE_INTEGER ) |
| allowPrefix | boolean | false | whether to interpret the prefixes 0b (base 2), 0o (base 8), 0t (base 10), or 0x (base 16) |
| allowTrailing | boolean | false | whether to ignore trailing characters |
| trimWhitespace | boolean | false | whether to trim any leading or trailing whitespace/line terminators |
| leadingZeroIsOctal | boolean | false | whether a leading zero indicates octal |
Note that if base
is unspecified, and allowPrefix
or leadingZeroIsOctal
are, then the leading characters can change the default base from 10. If base
is explicitly specified and allowPrefix
is true, then the prefix will only be
accepted if it matches the specified base. base
and leadingZeroIsOctal
cannot be used together.
Context: It's tricky to parse integers with JavaScript's built-in facilities for several reasons:
parseInt()
and Number()
by default allow the base to be specified in the
input string by a prefix (e.g., 0x
for hex).parseInt()
allows trailing nonnumeric characters.Number(str)
returns 0 when str
is the empty string (''
).parseInt('9007199254740993')
returns<PHONE_NUMBER>740992.-
and +
signs before the digit.While each of these may be desirable in some contexts, there are also times when
none of them are wanted. parseInteger()
grants greater control over what
input's permissible.
Converts a Date object to an ISO8601 date string of the form "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.sssZ". This format is not customizable.
Parses a date expressed as a string, as either a number of milliseconds since the epoch or any string format that Date accepts, giving preference to the former where these two sets overlap (e.g., strings containing small numbers).
Given two hrtime readings (as from Node's process.hrtime()
), where timeA is
later than timeB, compute the difference and return that as an hrtime. It is
illegal to invoke this for a pair of times where timeB is newer than timeA.
Add two hrtime intervals (as from Node's process.hrtime()
), returning a new
hrtime interval array. This function does not modify either input argument.
Add two hrtime intervals (as from Node's process.hrtime()
), storing the
result in timeA
. This function overwrites (and returns) the first argument
passed in.
This suite of functions converts a hrtime interval (as from Node's
process.hrtime()
) into a scalar number of nanoseconds, microseconds or
milliseconds. Results are truncated, as with Math.floor()
.
Uses JSON validation (via JSV) to validate the given object against the given schema. On success, returns null. On failure, returns (does not throw) a useful Error object.
Check an object for unexpected properties. Accepts the object to check, and an array of allowed property name strings. If extra properties are detected, an array of extra property names is returned. If no properties other than those in the allowed list are present on the object, the returned array will be of zero length.
Merge properties from objects "provided", "overrides", and "defaults". The intended use case is for functions that accept named arguments in an "args" object, but want to provide some default values and override other values. In that case, "provided" is what the caller specified, "overrides" are what the function wants to override, and "defaults" contains default values.
The function starts with the values in "defaults", overrides them with the values in "provided", and then overrides those with the values in "overrides". For convenience, any of these objects may be falsey, in which case they will be ignored. The input objects are never modified, but properties in the returned object are not deep-copied.
For example:
mergeObjects(undefined, { 'objectMode': true }, { 'highWaterMark': 0 })
returns:
{ 'objectMode': true, 'highWaterMark': 0 }
For another example:
mergeObjects(
{ 'highWaterMark': 16, 'objectMode': 7 }, /* from caller */
{ 'objectMode': true }, /* overrides */
{ 'highWaterMark': 0 }); /* default */
returns:
{ 'objectMode': true, 'highWaterMark': 16 }

The Java Development Kit (JDK) is one of three core technology packages used in Java programming, along with the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) and the JRE (Java Runtime Environment). It's important to differentiate between these three technologies, as well as understanding how they're connected.
The JVM is the Java platform component that executes programs. The JRE is the on-disk part of Java that creates the JVM. The JDK allows developers to create Java programs that can be executed and run by the JVM and JRE. Developers new to Java often confuse the Java Development Kit and the Java Runtime Environment. The distinction is that the JDK is a package of tools for developing Java-based software, whereas the JRE is a package of tools for running Java code. This figure shows how the JDK fits into the Java application development lifecycle.
Hence, in order to write, compile and exceute a java program- 1. First you will need to install JDK 2. Second you will need to install an Integrated Development Envionment (IDE), which is just like an editor. We recommend you to JGrasp for this course. 3. Finally start coding.
Go to the following page:
This page contains an optional survey by the jGRASP authors; you may scroll down and skip it. We recommend installing the lastest stable, non-beta version of the jGRASP editor. At the time of writing, this was version jGRASP 2.0.6_10 (August 10, 2022) as of Aug 20, 2023. Locate the appropriate download link and click it:
Save the file to your desktop or another convenient location.
Open the .exe
file you just downloaded. A setup wizard will appear.
The default settings are reasonable for most users, and you can complete the installation by repeatedly clicking "Next".
At this point, you will have a new jGRASP shortcut on your desktop. Double-click it to open jGRASP:
If you see this, you're all set! However, if you get the following error:
then your system does not yet have the JDK installed. Make sure you followed the JDK installation instructions, and try again. One potential reason for windows user could be -- you forgot to setup the JAVA_HOME environment variable after installing JDK.
Open the .pkg
file you just downloaded.
You may receive an error about jGRASP being from an "unidentified developer":
This is due to a macOS "feature" that makes it difficult to run applications not distributed via Apple's official channels.
To run the jGRASP installer regardless, bypassing this "feature", right click the .pkg
file and choose "open".
You will see an installation wizard.
The default settings are reasonable for most users, and you can complete the installation by repeatedly clicking "Continue".
You can now run jGRASP by opening jGRASP.app
from the Applications
folder.
One way to do this is to press Cmd+Space, type "jGRASP", and press Enter:
If jGRASP opens successfully, then you're all set! However, if you see the following error:
then you don't have the JDK installed. Make sure you followed the JDK installation instructions, and try again.


UX Engineer => Marine Corps Veteran and former Security Professional with an interest in creating
and building things whether it be coding, blacksmithing, or photography. User Experience and Web Development
is where my need for learning, designing, problem solving, and creation have merged with professional interest.
Now for the more absurd and less linkedin headline version:
I don't know where I'm from, so I usually give short false-ish answers or long winded convoluted answers
to that question. I spent my childhood in East Africa where 'I Did Not ride tigers to school',
(the tigers thing, that's one of the amazing actual questions I got asked in school in TN), then I lived
in very rural Tennessee for middle-high school where I may or may not have often found myself
running from the sounds of meth fueled banjos. Later I joined the Marines for various good reasons but insisted
on telling my friends who were awestruck at my new level of lunacy it was because "They gave me this awesome
t-shirt!", pretend I'm showing you some cheesy t-shirt a recruiter would hand out to a teenage boy. I
apparently like way too long sentences when writing and too far over-simplifying things when talking.
I'm Daniel, please feel free to make gratuitous deposits of knowledge bombs and if I'm ever found in
a "tis but a fleshwound" scenario after a stapler accident tell the EMTs I'm O+ and allergic to Jelly Fish.
Thanks.

This syllabus is subject to change based on specific class needs, especially the schedule. Significant deviations will be discussed in class.
This course will prepare students for programming contests, such as CCSC’s (Consortium for Computing Sciences in Colleges) student programming contest or the ACM (Associating for Computing Machinery) ICPC (International Collegiate Programming Contest) contest. By preparing for these contests students also gain valuable programming practice and review important computer science concepts learned in other classes. Most class meetings will be spent working on programming problems, either individually or in teams of 3.
There is no required course textbook, but any of the following are highly recommended:
It is highly recommended that you have a physical copy of one of these during any contest. Internet access is not allowed during competitions, nor are electronic devices.
During some class periods we may solve problems together using either REPL.it or binarysearch.io.
The exact topics covered will depend on the background of the students and how quickly they move through the material. Potential topics include:
| • How Contests Work | • Arithmetic and Algebra |
| • Contest Software | • Combinatorics |
| • Solution Skeletons and I/O | • Backtracking |
| • Data Structures | • Graph Traversal |
| • Strings | • Graph Algorithms |
| • Sorting | • Dynamic Programming |
| • Grids | • Computational Geometry |
The class will be graded on a credit/no credit basis. For credit, you must complete all but one of the assigned problems (usually 1 per week), complete any assigned readings (which will be distributed to you), attend class regularly, and participate in class. All submitted code for assigned problems must run without crashing or generating an error (though it may not successfully solve the problem), and at least one submission must fully solve the problem. There is no final exam.
The weekly workload for this course will vary by student and by week, and will especially vary due to the nature of participation courses. On average, students should expect 4-5 hours per week on this course, including class meeting time.

Today is the day before my little sisters birthday. Tomorrow my Dad has to go on a work trip. He is going to miss her birthday. Tonight we're going out to dinner to celebrate. AND opening presents. I got to spend my last birthday in the car returning home from a road trip. 12 hours in the car with my little sister and mom and dad. Yay.
I was just reading The New York Times's magazine Upfront and I stumbled upon an interesting article(if your interested in the article, click this link:Article). It was about a man, Paul Barton, who played piano. One day, he was playing the piano in an elephant sanctuary in Thailand, when he noticed an elephant had gone quiet and seemed to be listening to him. He moved the piano into a heard of handicapped, old, and injured elephants. They swayed to the rythem. Is it possible that classical music can helpelephants relax? Could it be the same for other animals? Is it the same for humans?
Last thing. I have one riddle for you. Five men are going to church. None of them have an umbrella or raincoats or hoods. Yet one of them does not get wet. The other men are not sheilding him in any way. How is this possible?

A was not a pom-pom today. She was not a (uni)corn. She was...wait for it...wait for it.....A! She is ALWAYS a pom or a corn. Today she was not. It scares me. She did not want a cookie. Also scary. Has she been abdoucted by aliens???!!!!?????? All update you next time.
Mirm the Worm is a worm who digs. For dirt. She is GOING to join me as a reporter for E's_news. She is very good at digging, both dirt and news. She is an exellent worm and excells at what she does.
Our beloved editor, E, has recently cought a cold. The symptoms she shows are a cough, zero hunger, and sleepiness. At work she is often heard coughing which greatly annoys her co-worker and subject. "Evil. Sneezes can travel up to a meter, man. And coughs can travel up to two thirds of a meter, man."  She belives that germs, when coming from a cough can be especially dangerous. She then proceded to sneeze. Twice. Hypocrite.
Earlier today Mirm randomly said somithing rather suprising. "I am a rat!", she said out of the blue. "You can quote that." she then said to her very suprised editor. Is she not Mirm the worm anymore? Is she now.. Mirm the Rat???!!??!!!??? More next time.
Our beloved editors favorite words are 'therefore' and 'whereas' and 'whatsoever'.
March 27, 2019
Mirm got a job working for E's_News! She is going to write movie reviews. Keep looking for her articles1
"I am (not) a worm. I am a Mirmtheworm." Mirm said, previously contracting the idea that she was a rat.
OUr editor is still sick. She feels terible.
Spanish: hola. English: hello. Norse: hei. Samoan: talofa. Greek: Γεια σας. Latin: salve.
I thought that Coco was a fine movie overall. The animation was wonderful. The glittering colors of the land of the dead were unlike any other movie. Ernesto De La Cruz was a truly despicable character. I always admire a filmmaker that can craft a good villain. On the contrary, it was the same as all other kids movies, All the action at the end. And of course they add more drama by having Miguel fall off a building, and cutting it real close with the sending him back to the land of the living.

Importing LDAP Objects
- Introduction
- Getting Started
- Creating the Migration
- Setting Up the Eloquent Model
- Running the Import
Introduction
If you are looking to import LDAP users into your application, view this guide instead.
With LdapRecord-Laravel, you can easily import and synchronize LDAP objects into a database table using a given Eloquent model. This is useful for importing groups, memberships and more.
Getting Started
For this example, we will be importing LDAP groups into our applications database table groups
.
Our groups table simply contains a name
column, however to import LDAP objects into it,
we must add two extra database columns:
| Column | Reason |
|---|---|
guid |
This is for storing your LDAP objects objectguid . It is needed for locating and synchronizing your LDAP object to the database. |
domain |
This is for storing your LDAP objects connection name. It is needed for storing your configured LDAP connection name of the object. |
For brevity, we will not be showing the creation of the
groups
database table migration.
Creating the Migration
Generate a migration to add these columns onto our groups
table:
php artisan make:migration add_ldap_columns_to_groups_table
Then, we'll add the new required columns to the migration:
class AddLdapColumnsToGroupsTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::table('groups', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->string('guid')->unique()->nullable();
$table->string('domain')->nullable();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::table('groups', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->dropColumn(['guid', 'domain']);
});
}
}
After finishing setting up the above migration, make sure you run it:
php artisan migrate
Setting Up the Eloquent Model
For the importer to be able to properly interface with your Eloquent model, you must apply the following trait and interface onto your Eloquent model you are using to perform the import.
| Type | |
|---|---|
| Interface | LdapRecord\Laravel\LdapImportable |
| Trait | LdapRecord\Laravel\ImportableFromLdap |
// app/Group.php
namespace App;
use LdapRecord\Laravel\LdapImportable;
use LdapRecord\Laravel\ImportableFromLdap;
class Group extends Authenticatable implements LdapImportable
{
use ImportableFromLdap;
// ...
}
Your model is now ready for importing.
Running the Import
Defining Sync Attributes
Prior to running the import, you must define a configuration array. This configuration array must contain an
array of sync_attributes
, that reference the database column (the key) and the LDAP attribute (the value):
$config = [
'sync_attributes' => [
'name' => 'cn'

As with importing LDAP users, you may also use an attribute handler if you require extra logic when setting database values from the object.
$config = ['sync_attributes' => \App\Ldap\AttributeHandler::class];
Performing the Import
To perform the import, you must use the LdapRecord\Laravel\LdapImporter
class.
This class accepts your Eloquent model class as the first parameter, and your configuration array into the second:
Important: The importer will always return an unsaved Eloquent model. You must call
save()
after running the importer.
use App\Group as EloquentGroup;
use LdapRecord\Laravel\LdapImporter;
use LdapRecord\Laravel\ActiveDirectory\Group as LdapGroup;
// Define the sync attributes.
$config = [
'sync_attributes' => [
'name' => 'cn'
],
];
// Create the importer.
$importer = new LdapImporter(EloquentGroup::class, $config);
// Import each group from the directory.
foreach (LdapGroup::get() as $group) {
$importer->run($group)->save();
}
The above can easily be placed into a scheduled job if you'd prefer the import to be ran in the background of your application.


History of the Stock Market
The stock market is a physical or digital place where investors can buy and sell stock (shares) in publicly traded companies . The price of these shares is driven by supply and demand. The more shares that people want to buy, the higher the price goes.
The modern stock market was created in Amsterdam where the Dutch East India Company was the first publicly traded company. They decided to raise capital by selling stock and paying dividends of the shares to investors.
The Nasdaq is referring to the Nasdaq Composite Index, which, like the Dow Jones Industrial Average, is a statistical measure of a portion of the stock market. Both the Dow and the Nasdaq are terms that refer to an index, or an average of many values derived from price movements of certain stocks.


PETULIA (director: Richard Lester; screenwriter: from John Haase's novel "Me and the Arch Kook Petulia"/Lawrence B. Marcus/Barbara Turner; cinematographer: Nicolas Roeg; editor: Antony Gibbs; cast: Julie Christie (Petulia Danner), George C. Scott (Archie Bollen), Shirley Knight (Polo), Richard Chamberlain (David), Arthur Hill (Barney), Pippa Scott (May), Kathleen Widdoes (Wilma), Joseph Cotten (Mr. Danner), Richard Dysart (Motel Receptionist), Roger Bowen (Warren), Eric Weiss (Michael), Kevin Cooper (Stevie), Vincent Arias (Oliver), Nate Esformes (Mr. Mendoza), Lou Gilbert (Mr. Howard), 1968-UK)
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
Richard Lester, who did two Beatle films, Help! (65) and A Hard Day's Night (64), is the director of this romantic/comedy, giving it a satirical British flavor. Petulia plays like a soap opera, set in San Francisco during the late 1960s. It has a few gratuitous shots of Janis Joplin and Big Brother & the Holding Company plus the Grateful Dead, playing to a largely non-hippie audience. It is, indeed, mind-boggling to have so little acid rock in a film pretending to be about the mod '60s. The film reminded me most of a General Hospital sudser, with a few noted Nicolas Roeg cinematography tricks, pre-Performance, thrown in to give it a deeper look than the picture merited, such as jump cuts, time frame changes back and forth and forward, leaving one with a disjointed feeling about when events actually took place. The innovations, which make the film seem unconventional, all come about through the visual rhythm of the film rather than through the story itself.
George C. Scott, as an upper-middle-class orthopedic surgeon, Archie Bollen, is a great doctor but a troubled man who walked out of a perfect marriage, saying:"One day, I just got tired of being married." He's smug, but he also becomes a tragic figure when he falls hard for a shallow, kooky, but very attractive married lady, Petulia Danner (Julie Christie), who picks him up at a charity event attended by the social elites. Archie's problem is that his personal life never equals the success of his career.
These two, I guess, are meant to be reflective of the radical times in America, but not in the ordinary way the Sixties is usually depicted: of Vietnam War protests, Civil Rights protests, sexual freedom, hippies, rock music, and drugs. Here, we have two very mixed-up upper-class straight people, somehow needing each other, even though they are as different as night and day. He, a middle-aged man, who can't really figure out why he left his wonderful wife Polo (Knight) and his two sons, and he also can't figure out what he is now looking for; while, she's a twenty-something, into a marriage for only six months with a very wealthy and good-looking but abusive man, David (Chamberlain), whom she can't figure out if she likes or doesn't. So she decides that she must have an affair with a married man. To make matters worst, she is living unhappily in the mansion David's parents live in. The good thing about David's parents, is that the father is Joseph Cotten and it's always great to hear his uniquely rich voice on the screen.
Polo settles for second best, meeting a nice, stable engineer, Warren (Bowen), whom the kids (Weiss/Cooper) adore, but who is homely and colorless. The doctor's friends, his colleague Barney (Arthur Hill) and his chatter-box wife, Wilma (Widdoes), can't make head or tail out of their friend's recent actions, pushing subtly as they can for him to go back with Polo.
Flashbacks occur whenever a close-up of one of these characters has a puzzled look on their kisser. There is no explanation for the continuous flashbacks and flash-forwards, as confusion reigns as a form of hipness. In one of Petulia's flashbacks, we see a young boy, Oliver (Arias), in Mexico, jump into the Rolls Royce that Petulia was driving and he crosses the border with her, going as far as her San Francisco mansion. Whereby, David kicks him out, but gives him his Rolex watch. In a later flashback, we see that the kid got hit by a car on his way to the bus station, and through subsequent flashbacks we learn that he is still alive and that Petulia is giving someone guilt money to look after him.
If you ask me, I thought this film was more claptrap than anything else. But enjoyable claptrap. It was easy to take, and even if the story didn't go anywhere, it did catch something unique about the 1960s that wasn't seen in other films -- how the wealthy took to the changes without the usual ways of rebelling.
Julie was super in it.  A socialite's kookiness, will you. George C. Scott looked grumpy for most of the film, but seemed to gain a little of the revolutionary spirit of the times every time he was with the kooky Petulia. He looked like he was into the 1960s as he was returning a tuba Julie stole from an old friend and brought with her on their first tryst to his apartment.
Aside from the brilliant performances, this surreal-styled film, with its successful flashbacks but not so successful flash-forwards, was rather a disorientated and emotionally cold film. It was impossible to warm up to these elusive and neurotic characters, each trapped by fate or indecision. By the film's end, the same problems that existed in the beginning were still present. Richard Chamberlain remains a jealous husband, unsure of his wife's commitment to him. Julie Christie is unable to know if she can love somebody. George C. Scott is still chasing something that he is not sure of. Arthur Hill and Kathleen Widdoes stay married because it is the safest thing to do and not because they are happy together. They all have quirky personalities, but they are all straight and it seems odd that a film so grounded in the '60s actually missed having truly representative characters of that age. I thought the film was too cutely done and lacked depth.

While working at Cornell University with David Winkler in 2011 I started development of a new technique for solar geolocation data analysis. Solar geolocators are the tiniest devices one can put on animals that record only light levels over time. In 2012 I joined a project ‘Establishing an Open-source Animal-tracking Analysis Platform for Archival Geolocators’ supported by the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis.
In the end I have developed R package FLightR. I hope it will help researchers to get year round estimates of migratory animals’ locations and behavioural states.
Here is how FLightR works:
NB: I cannot answer all FLightR and other geolocation related questions over email, concider ornithologyexchange and open issues for package problems at the dedicated GitHub page.

Tip#1: Always say PLEASE and THANK YOU when someone has helped you.
 Be calm, and start the conversation by saying "Hello" with a smile (NOT A SCARY ONE).
Tip#3:If you want to talk to a person who is currently talking to someone else, wait until their conversation is over.
Tip#4:If you need to give someone very important information that cannot wait, say "Excuse me, can I talk to you for a second?"
Tip#5: When having a conversation make sure there is distance between you and the person you are speaking to. Don't stand too close or too far.
TIP#6:While in a conversation, try to identify the person's emotions while they talk. (If you need help with identifying emotions look at the EMOJI ME icon)
Tip#7: Always try to be respectful while having a conversation.
Tip#8: Show people that you care about what they are saying by making eye contact. If this is too hard, try looking at their nose or forehead (They won't know the difference!)
Tip#9: Sometimes saying the truth can hurt someone's feelings.
Tip#10: If you would like to get yourself out of the conversation try saying "Do you know what time it is? I think I have to go" or "I have to go. It was really nice talking to you."

Honolulu, Hawaiʻi
Nisshondo Candy Store
This mom-and-pop Japanese sweets shop has been serving cloud-light mochi for almost a century.
by Reina GattusoFrom the outside, Nisshondo Mochiya doesn’t look like much. Housed in a vaguely industrial building, its nondescript door is an unobtrusive slip of gray between a garage and a collection of electric meters. Over the door, a hand-painted sign reads “NISSHONDO - MOCHI - MANJU - CHICHI DANGO” in black and muted gold block letters. Open the door, however, and you’ll be faced with a sugary rainbow: Rows of pastel candy, bulbous as animated mushrooms, nestled in a glass case.
Offerings include chichi dango, a chewy, lightly sweet dumpling made of glutinous rice flour and coconut milk, as well as mochi and manju, sweet buns made of rice and wheat flour, respectively, and filled with anything from bean paste to peanut butter (regulars rave about the latter). Nisshondo makes these sweets in a uniquely Hawaiian style, with a mochi that’s softer and less chewy than Japanese varieties.
Opened in the 1920s, Nisshondo is one of the oldest Japanese candy stores in the United States. It’s also a repository of a Japanese-Hawaiian culinary tradition that stretches back to the mid-19th century, when the first Japanese immigrants came to Hawaiʻi as indentured laborers on sugar plantations. Within a few decades, Honolulu was sporting a lively Japanese neighborhood, complete with bakeries, wine shops, hotels, and restaurants catering to Japanese immigrants and their families.
One of these immigrants was Asataro Hirao. He was already living in Honolulu when, in the 1910s, he decided to return to his home city of Hiroshima for a visit. That’s where he learned to make Japanese confections. When he returned to Honolulu, Nisshondo Mochiya was born. Hirao tweaked traditional recipes, adapting them to local Hawaiian ingredients, and his descendants continue to make sweets based on his creations to this day. The shop is so rooted in tradition, Hirao’s successors were using his original vertical mixer until just a few years ago. And the whole family continues to come together around the holidays, making mochi to fill the rush of New Year’s orders from customers who have been returning to the shop for decades.
Everyone has their favorites, but the pink-and-white chichi dango, wrapped in translucent white paper and powdery with starch, is Nisshondo’s best-selling item. “We sell out of chichi dango pretty much every day,” Mike Hirao, the shop’s third-generation owner, told Hawai’i Magazine. So if you want a bite of the cloud-light sweet, it’s best to follow one piece of advice: Come early.
Know Before You Go
For a celebratory experience, head to Nisshondo Mochiya on March 3, Girls’ Day. The Japanese holiday is widely celebrated in Hawaiʻi, where girls mark the occasion by arranging doll collections and eating a special, diamond-shaped, tri-colored mochi, called hishi mochi. Beware, however: According to Hawai'i Magazine, the sweet is so popular, and preorders so plentiful, that by Girls’ Day itself, there may not be any hishi mochi left.

2 Poems by Nate Logan
San Francisco B.C.
for Amy Berkowitz
1
“Romance is the douche of the bourgeoisie.”
“Think of your parents at the BART station.”
These are things the tourism board
doesn’t tell you. They’re natural
inclinations—like slipping into
a pea coat, like pulling the gruff
off a Midwestern accent.
Breakfast sandwiches are eaten
while the ocean keeps working.
A beachcomber scours for a silver watch,
its missing poster next to the band’s.
2
You wrote a poem about San Francisco.
I think I’m in there, in the game
of Telephone between sections seven and eight.
I told my friend what you told me—
that it was likely arson. That people
are so angry. When people are angry
in Texas, someone’s gotta die.
That’s only one reason why I didn’t
want to come back. There’s that old
song, “I Left My Heart in SF.” Yes,
maybe not my heart, but something.
Bad Dialogue
“Can we please go five minutes without talking about corn futures?” she pleaded. At this, our therapist gave me one of those looks, the kind of look that confirmed that every fissure in my relationship was chiseled with a tiny, specialty hammer that only I had access to. A Nate-style of hammer, if you will. Corn is important; I thought this was so obvious as to not say anything. I grimaced and nodded. I went five minutes without mentioning corn futures.
But it didn’t end there. Like an upstart breeze through the boondocks, corn disappeared from my life. I no longer cared about corn in any way. I buried all the cobs from the farmer’s market in the backyard. I bleached my hair from its natural corn hue, to a nice scorched-earth gray. I unsubscribed from the corn futures listserv and left the goodbye message: “Really? Corn?”
Now, me and my wife couldn’t be happier. We’re solid broccoli folk. We have a good handle on things.

For my design portfolio, aartics.com I undertook making a 3D representation my project gallery, viewed as if in a VR world. The files and code used for developing are available on GitHub. These are screenshots of the wireframe and the current prototype website aartics.com.
I started imagining a grid of hexagons where each hexagon could contain a project, an image or other data. By using a hexagonal grid, I can allow the viewer to extend explorations in 6 directions, instead of the traditional 4.
Conceptually, using a hexagonal grid could also allow ‘folding’ the design pattern into spherical geodesic dome "worlds of information" that viewers could choose to explore. That could be fun.
This enabled me to imagine viewers experiencing equally sized hexagonal tiles in a panoramic dome, and not restricted to traditional rectangular view-boxes (like this web browser we are reading this article on). Viewing from inside the dome (panorama) seemed to limit a user’s view, so I chose to explore viewing from the outside (inverse panorama).
I could then use extruded projections for information of various types and hierarchies - qualitative or quantitative data. These can be represented as heights of the polygons.
I proceeded to visualize the panoramic bird’s eye view interface for my website, by working on achieving the right perspective for viewing on a desktop browser.
I made the 3D object representation in SketchUP Make. For the current design, this is a hexagonal column grid.
I exported screenshots of the “bird’s eye view” camera perspective of the model.
I stitched the screenshots in PhotoShop for a continuous panoramic effect. I used 20 states of full length images to understand the effect. These images served as the wireframes for the site interaction
I used the 20 state images in html with the jInvertScroll library to change the image based on the position of the cursor on the page.
Click here to see the work-in-progress wireframe prototype, with the images
What I describe here is a very tedious way to achieve the vector conversion, and I am currently looking for better ways to export the 3D model directly to SVGs. Meanwhile, here is the description of what I did.
I laid out 9 states of the 3D panorama in Adobe Illustrator on individual artboards and illustrated the shapes and shadows as polygons for every state. Care was taken to ensure that each artboard contains the same layer name for individual polygons.
I then exported all the artboards as individual SVGs from Illustrator.
Studying the structure of the SVG shows that each polygon is stored with a “points” attribute which is an array of numbers and each state of the panorama is a different set of numbers.
With the help of my friend, philosopher and programmer extraordinaire guide @owings1, we wrote a script that will store the points value for each polygon as arrays objects in JSON.
We then used vanilla JavaScript to update the values of the points attribute for each polygon in an initialized SVG based on the position of the cursor on the page. To achieve the horizontal panning effect on the page, we used the jInvertScroll library to retrieve the cursor position value, but this is not needed.
Experience the first edition interactive prototype on aartics.
Thanks to this design exercise, we now have an animation framework to morph Illustrator graphics to interactive HTML.
This allows us to imagine and prototype 3D visual interactions in 2D tools and traditional browsers. There are many improvements to be made, and as time goes on, I hope to present more examples and improved versions of this framework.
I continue to study the applications of using hexagonal grids. This is one of the best references I have found

Firestorm (1998)
Rating: 2.0 stars (out of 4.0) ******************************** Key to rating system: 2.0 stars - Debatable 2.5 stars - Some people may like it 3.0 stars - I liked it 3.5 stars - I am biased in favor of the movie 4.0 stars - I felt the movie's impact personally or it stood out ********************************* A Movie Review by David Sunga
Directed by: Dean Semler
Written by: Chris Soth, Graham Yost
Starring: Howie Long, Scott Glenn, William Forsythe, Suzy Amis
Ingredients: Huge forest fires, athletic fireman, beautiful birdwatcher, escaped convicts
Synopsis: >From the ad, I thought this movie was an action movie about a soldier, but it turns out FIRESTORM is about the adventures of a smokejumper in a firestorm. Jesse (Howie Long, the former Los Angeles Raiders football star defensive lineman) is a smokejumper - - a fireman who parachutes out of helicopters to fight forest fires that are hard to access by road. A firestorm is a situation where air suddenly comes rushing into a forest fire, causing a blazing inferno. Unknown to Jesse, some escaped convicts led by a psycho (William Forsythe) are dressed as firefighters. They are using a deliberately set blaze as a distraction to make their escape through the burning forest. A beautiful birdwatcher (Suzy Amis) becomes their hostage. When fireman Jesse parachutes in alone, he soon finds that he must defeat the psychos, rescue the girl, and escape the firestorm all at the same time.  It's just a matter of catapulting out the roof despite there being no hole. In another scene, a criminal's head is used to plug a boat leak. The screenplay was written by Chris Soth and Graham Yost (SPEED) and the film marks the directorial debut of director Dean Semler (the cinematographer of DANCES WITH WOLVES).
Opinion: This is a mediocre firefighting yarn that's half DANTE'S PEAK and half BACKDRAFT. FIRESTORM is fairly predictable with many cheesy escapes. But it is watchable, and at least you won't fall asleep. I felt as if I were watching something like SPEED 2, only with a smaller budget for actors and effects.

Buy Navneet Education; target of Rs 142: Prabhudas Lilladher
Prabhudas Lilladher is bullish on Navneet Education has recommended buy rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 142 in its research report dated November 14, 2019.
by Broker ResearchPrabhudas Lilladher's research report on Navneet Education
Navneet's (NELI) results were above our estimates in a seasonally lean quarter with revenues declining 6.3% YoY to Rs2,468mn (PLe of Rs2,160mn; beat by ~14%). However, after adjusting for the spillover of Rs600mn in 2QFY19, revenues increased 21.3% YoY aided by strong growth in the stationery segment. EBITDA declined 31.4% YoY to Rs318mn and was in-line with our estimate with margins declining 470bps YoY to 12.9%. Tax reversals led to 47% YoY growth in PAT to Rs425mn. Given the current quarter performance, we keep our estimates broadly unchanged. Valuations at 9.6x FY20E and 8.3x FY21E appear attractive given 33% bottom line CAGR over FY19-21E, superior return ratios, strong dividend pay-out and narrowing losses in E-sense.
Outlook
However, we marginally cut our target multiple to 12x (earlier 15x) as we roll forward to FY21E. Maintain BUY with a TP of Rs142 (earlier Rs153).

The following examples show the basic functions of the number converter. The given number is in every example:
By default, grouping is activated and only three digits after the point are shown.
Also the value of type
is 'number'.
Grouping is deactivated.
Only integer values are shown.
There are at minimum 10 integer digits and 5 digits after the point shown. The given amount is not high enough in both ways.
There are maximal 6 integer digits and 2 digits after the point shown. Notice, that the second digit after the point is rounded up.
The type
attribute can have the value 'number' (default), 'currency' and 'percent'.
If the type is set to 'currency', a code or a symbol must be set. Have a look at the following examples.
The currency code is set to 'EUR'. Also the type must set to 'currency', otherwise the
currencyCode
attribute has no effect.
The currency symbol is set to '€'. Also the type must set to 'currency', otherwise the

[ aws . configservice ]
Adds or updates an AWS Config rule for evaluating whether your AWS resources comply with your desired configurations.
You can use this action for custom Config rules and AWS managed Config rules. A custom Config rule is a rule that you develop and maintain. An AWS managed Config rule is a customizable, predefined rule that AWS Config provides.
If you are adding a new custom Config rule, you must first create the AWS Lambda function that the rule invokes to evaluate your resources. When you use the put-config-rule action to add the rule to AWS Config, you must specify the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that AWS Lambda assigns to the function. Specify the ARN for the SourceIdentifier key. This key is part of the Source object, which is part of the config-rule object.
If you are adding a new AWS managed Config rule, specify the rule's identifier for the SourceIdentifier key. To reference AWS managed Config rule identifiers, see Using AWS Managed Config Rules .
For any new rule that you add, specify the ConfigRuleName in the config-rule object. Do not specify the ConfigRuleArn or the ConfigRuleId . These values are generated by AWS Config for new rules.
If you are updating a rule that you added previously, you can specify the rule by ConfigRuleName , ConfigRuleId , or ConfigRuleArn in the config-rule data type that you use in this request.
The maximum number of rules that AWS Config supports is 50.
For more information about requesting a rule limit increase, see AWS Config Limits in the AWS General Reference Guide .
For more information about developing and using AWS Config rules, see Evaluating AWS Resource Configurations with AWS Config in the AWS Config Developer Guide .

An AWS Config rule represents an AWS Lambda function that you create for a custom rule or a predefined function for an AWS managed rule. The function evaluates configuration items to assess whether your AWS resources comply with your desired configurations. This function can run when AWS Config detects a configuration change to an AWS resource and at a periodic frequency that you choose (for example, every 24 hours).
Note
You can use the AWS CLI and AWS SDKs if you want to create a rule that triggers evaluations for your resources when AWS Config delivers the configuration snapshot. For more information, see ConfigSnapshotDeliveryProperties .
For more information about developing and using AWS Config rules, see Evaluating AWS Resource Configurations with AWS Config in the AWS Config Developer Guide .

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values.
--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
To add an AWS managed Config rule
The following command provides JSON code to add an AWS managed Config rule:
aws configservice put-config-rule --config-rule file://RequiredTagsForEC2Instances.json
RequiredTagsForEC2Instances.json is a JSON file that contains the rule configuration:
{
"ConfigRuleName": "RequiredTagsForEC2Instances",
"Description": "Checks whether the CostCenter and Owner tags are applied to EC2 instances.",
"Scope": {
"ComplianceResourceTypes": [
"AWS::EC2::Instance"
]
},
"Source": {
"Owner": "AWS",
"SourceIdentifier": "REQUIRED_TAGS"
},
"InputParameters": "{\"tag1Key\":\"CostCenter\",\"tag2Key\":\"Owner\"}"
}
For the ComplianceResourceTypes attribute, this JSON code limits the scope to resources of the AWS::EC2::Instance type, so AWS Config will evaluate only EC2 instances against the rule. Because the rule is a managed rule, the Owner attribute is set to AWS, and the SourceIdentifier attribute is set to the rule identifier, REQUIRED_TAGS. For the InputParameters attribute, the tag keys that the rule requires, CostCenter and Owner, are specified.
If the command succeeds, AWS Config returns no output. To verify the rule configuration, run the describe-config-rules command, and specify the rule name.
To add a customer managed Config rule
The following command provides JSON code to add a customer managed Config rule:
aws configservice put-config-rule --config-rule file://InstanceTypesAreT2micro.json
InstanceTypesAreT2micro.json is a JSON file that contains the rule configuration:
{
"ConfigRuleName": "InstanceTypesAreT2micro",
"Description": "Evaluates whether EC2 instances are the t2.micro type.",
"Scope": {
"ComplianceResourceTypes": [
"AWS::EC2::Instance"
]
},
"Source": {
"Owner": "CUSTOM_LAMBDA",
"SourceIdentifier": "arn:aws:lambda:us-east-1:123456789012:function:InstanceTypeCheck",
"SourceDetails": [
{
"EventSource": "aws.config",
"MessageType": "ConfigurationItemChangeNotification"
}
]
},
"InputParameters": "{\"desiredInstanceType\":\"t2.micro\"}"
}
For the ComplianceResourceTypes attribute, this JSON code limits the scope to resources of the AWS::EC2::Instance type, so AWS Config will evaluate only EC2 instances against the rule. Because this rule is a customer managed rule, the Owner attribute is set to CUSTOM_LAMBDA, and the SourceIdentifier attribute is set to the ARN of the AWS Lambda function. The SourceDetails object is required. The parameters that are specified for the InputParameters attribute are passed to the AWS Lambda function when AWS Config invokes it to evaluate resources against the rule.
If the command succeeds, AWS Config returns no output. To verify the rule configuration, run the describe-config-rules command, and specify the rule name.

This puzzle consists of a Google Sheet with ten sheets which appear to correspond to hypothetical “puzzles”, and finally a sheet at the end called “Extract”.
Each of the puzzle sheets has a crucial step remaining in order to extract the answer for that puzzle and includes notes that suggest what specifically needs to be done. In each case, there is a shaded cell, as well as a solid border around some cells in the sheet that need to be filled. By filling the highlighted cell with the appropriate formula, the correct data can be placed in all of the color-boxed cells by simply copying that formula.
For the first few sheets, the required formulas are quite simple, but the later sheets require some lesser-known formulas.
Possible solutions follow for the highlighted cell in each of the sheets:
| Sheet name | Solution | Explanation | “Answer” |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crossword Chaos | =MID(B2,Q2,1) | MID takes a chunk of a word, so it’s good for indexing. | CROSSWORDCHAOSCROSSWORDCHAOSCR |
| Mystery Hunt History | =CHAR(D6-1900) | CHAR converts a numberical value to its ASCII character equivalent. | ANSWERTOTHEPUZZLE |
| Identity Crisis | =CHAR(D5+64) | CHAR can also be used for "A1Z26" substitutions. | IGNORETHESEANSWERSPLEASE |
| Programming Problems | =UPPER(MID(REGEXREPLACE(A5,"[^A-Za-z]",""),P5,1)) | This one is tricky. We use a regular expression to substitute out all the non-alphabetic characters before using the indexing trick from above. | SUCCESSYOUSOLVEDITGREATGREAT |
| Countries | =INDEX($E:$E,MATCH(INDEX($B:$B,MATCH(H5,$A:$A,0)),$D:$D,0)) | INDEX and MATCH are crucial functions for solving puzzles in google sheets. They’re very versatile, and you can use them to look up data in tables of any direction or shape. You can also see dollar signs used here to lock in place some of the references. | CANONICALLISTICLE |
| Data Disentanglement | =INDIRECT(AF3&B3) | INDIRECT is another fun function, that converts a cell title as a string to an actual reference. You can also see “&” which is shorthand for concatenation here. INDIRECT sometimes works well with ADDRESS, which makes a cell name string. | MECHANICALSEAMONSTER |
| Vowels and Consonants | =CHAR(BIN2DEC(C7)+64) | BIN2DEC is a little funny in that it only likes numbers smaller than 512. | GREATJOBYOUDIDIT |
| Frequency Analysis | =CHAR(LEN($A$3)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE($A$3,A11,""))+64) | There’s a bunch of ways to do this one. This is probably the simplest though. It’s a little clever - the number of occurences of a letter in a string is the length of the string minus the length of the string with that character removed. | CONGRATULATIONSYOUSOLVEDIT |
| Pokemon Sudoku | =ARRAYFORMULA(CONCATENATE(IF($EJ$12:$EL$14=A12,MID($EJ$12:$EL$14,$EG$8:$EI$10,1),""))) | This is the hardest subpuzzle. This solution abuses CONCATENATE and ARRAYFORMULA to try a bunch of things at once and use only the one that worked. Generally ARRAYFORMULA is an extremely useful function but it can be hard to think about at times. It makes any function that would operate on a single cell operate across an array of cells instead, applying to each one. | BRILLIANT |
| Too many numbers! | =CHAR(COUNTIF($EE$276:$FR$529,A277)-936) | COUNTIF is another standard useful function. It can also count things that are greater than a given number, or a number of other ways of counting. Dollar signs are almost always necessary with COUNTIF if you’re using it to count different things in the same range. | WOWNICEONE |
In some cases, there are some other reasonable formulas that would also work, such as using many instances of SUBSTITUTE instead of one REGEXREPLACE for Programming Problems.
As emphasised by the first sheet, and the answer to Identity Crisis, the “answers” on each sheet are not relevant for solving the puzzle; they are just placeholders so that solvers can verify that their solution for each sheet is correct.
As hinted on the final “Extract” sheet, we proceed by copying the formulas from the previous sheets into the corresponding colored boxes on the final sheet. Note that in Google Sheets this can be done by either directly copying the formula text from the cell, or by copying the cell itself. The latter is correct here, as hinted by the large number of hidden columns in the previous sheets, which would not be relevant in the former case, and by the comment above the formula pasting area.
When all of the formulas are pasted into the extraction sheet, the conditional formatting produces the following image:
