In this project we will be demonstrating a simple animation of a guy walking. This will be acheived by quickly showing different sprites in succession to simulate the appearance of the sprite walking. Kind of like a flipbook.
We first develop the sprites we want to use by calling led_matrix.LEDSprite()
on
the already created .spr
files in the same folder. These varibles will be used to
draw on the LED matrices.
To animate a sprites, we need to quickly flash different sprites together in succession, just like pages in a flipbook. To do this, we will use the a technique where we clear the display, draw and show one sprite for a couple of seconds, and then repeat for the other sprites. Once we have gone through all the sprites, we will then repeat the process again, starting with the first sprite again.

3 family members wiped out in tragic road accident, 4 others rushed to hospital
by Charles OumaRIP!
Three people were confirmed dead on the spot while four others were rushed to hospital in critical condition following a tragic road accident along the Nairobi-Nakuru highway.
Reports indicate that all the casualties as well as the deceased are members of the same family.
The accident occurred after a trailer rammed into the rear of a personal car that was ferrying the occupants from Nakuru to Nairobi.
Upon the impact, the car crashed into another trailer ahead of it.
Among the dead in the Saturday night accident are two women and a six-year-old boy.
The accident which happened near Marula farm in Naivasha saw transport along the busy road temporarily paralyzed.
Police and well-wishers moved in to rush the injured to hospital and retrieve the bodies from the wreck before the wreck was towed away.
The incident was confirmed by Naivasha OCPD Samuel Waweru who stated that the injured are admitted to Naivasha sub-county hospital in serious but stable condition with the bodies of the deceased moved to a morgue within the same facility.
“Initial investigations point to the driver of the last trailer for the accident which claimed three lives and he shall be charged in court once investigations are through,” he said.
A witness who arrived at the scene shortly after the accident recounted that the personal car was squeezed between the two trailers killing the three and seriously injuring others.

Team: University of Cincinnati Men's XC
Workout: Broken Tempo on Cross Country Course
Interval: 2-3 x 3 Mile
Set-Up: 1 TRAC reader at 2 mile marker
Workout: Broken Tempo on Cross Country Course
Interval: 2-3 x 3 Mile
Set-Up: 1 TRAC reader at 2 mile marker
During the Workout: The workout was run on a local high school cross country in the suburbs of Cincinnati. It was a hot 90 degree morning for a tempo effort, freshly cut grass and dew covered the course. It was one large figure-8 type loop with the start and finish very close to one another; this made capturing the start, finish and one mile splits easy to capture. The two mile marker was significantly further than the others, presenting a great place to put the TRAC reader to record splits that would usually go uncaptured.
After the Workout: With the TRAC reader at mile 2, this allowed the coach to update his runners to maintain or increase their effort as they pushed towards the final mile. Previously, the only way to get the 2 mile split, was having a coach run faster than the athletes; now the coach could breath easy and update his athletes on where he wanted them as the temperature continued to rise. This presented a new set of data our coach never recorded previously, data which could be the difference in determining his runners' fitness in the future.

PySpark supports custom serializers for transferring data; this can improve performance.
By default, PySpark uses PickleSerializer to serialize objects using Python's
cPickle
serializer, which can serialize nearly any Python
object. Other serializers, like MarshalSerializer, support fewer datatypes but can be
faster.
The serializer is chosen when creating SparkContext:
>>> from pyspark.context import SparkContext >>> from pyspark.serializers import MarshalSerializer >>> sc = SparkContext('local', 'test', serializer=MarshalSerializer()) >>> sc.parallelize(list(range(1000))).map(lambda x: 2 * x).take(10) [0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18] >>> sc.stop()
By default, PySpark serialize objects in batches; the batch size can
be controlled through SparkContext's batchSize
parameter
(the default size is 1024 objects):
>>> sc = SparkContext('local', 'test', batchSize=2) >>> rdd = sc.parallelize(range(16), 4).map(lambda x: x)
Behind the scenes, this creates a JavaRDD with four partitions, each of which contains two batches of two objects:
>>> rdd.glom().collect() [[0, 1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7], [8, 9, 10, 11], [12, 13, 14, 15]] >>> rdd._jrdd.count() 8L >>> sc.stop()
A batch size of -1 uses an unlimited batch size, and a size of 1 disables batching:
>>> sc = SparkContext('local', 'test', batchSize=1) >>> rdd = sc.parallelize(range(16), 4).map(lambda x: x) >>> rdd.glom().collect() [[0, 1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6, 7], [8, 9, 10, 11], [12, 13, 14, 15]] >>> rdd._jrdd.count() 16L

‘Allow sand quarrying using bullock carts’
by Special CorrespondentThe Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), Thanjavur District Committee, has urged the District Administration to allow bullock cart operators to lift sand from Kollidam riverbed and announced that a demonstration would be held at Kumbakonam on November 29 in support of the demand.
In a memorandum submitted to the District Administration here on Monday, the CITU Thanjavur District Secretary, C. Jayabal said bullock cart owners armed with necessary orders from the Public Works Department to quarry sand from the Kollidam river at Devanodai village in Papanasam taluk were being prevented from carrying on with their activity.
They also sought the reopening of the quarry at Kothankudi in Kumbakonam taluk and also setting up a quarry in Thiruvidaimaruthur taluk.
Further, it was stated in the memorandum that a demonstration would be organised at Kumbakonam on November 29 in support of the demands of the bullock cart owners.

No, not that Mars.
FlipCon14 is coming up June 23-25. This is the 7th annual event, and I’ve had the privilege of watching it grow from 35 people in Woodland Park (FlipCon10) to nearly 450 last year in Minnesota. This year, we’re in Mars, PA (near Pittsburgh) and we’ve got a fantastic lineup planned. Along with Jon and Aaron’s keynote, Molly Schroeder will be opening the conference with her Living in Beta keynote.
If you’re on the fence about coming, we have the full schedule – including all concurrent sessions – posted online for review. Hopefully, that will help tip you over the edge.
I can honestly say that this conference kicked off my interest in improving digital teaching and learning. Each year, I learn more about what teachers are doing to help students and how I can adapt some of the things they do to my own practice. I’m excited to see old friends, and meet new ones. If you’re also planning on heading to Pittsburgh, leave a shout out in the comments.

Heliogen achieves solar 'breakthrough' that could replace fossil fuels in some industries
Using advanced computer vision to reflect sunlight onto a target
by Shawn KnightSomething to look forward to: Clean energy company Heliogen has developed a technique for creating concentrated solar energy that could be used to replace fossil fuels in key industrial processes. Its secret? Advanced computer vision that helps to hyper-accurately align mirrors.
Up to this point, commercial concentrating solar thermal systems have only been able to reach temperatures of up to 565 degrees Celsius. While handy, it’s not nearly hot enough for use in many industrial processes.
By using advanced computer vision software to accurately align a large array of mirrors to reflect sunlight onto a single target, Heliogen was able to hit temperatures exceeding 1,000 degrees Celsius. That’s warm enough to effectively replace the use of fossil fuels in the creation of things like steel, cement and petrochemicals and could drastically reduce global greenhouse gas emissions.
Heliogen founder and CEO Bill Gross said we’ve made great strides in deploying clean energy for electrical systems but notes that electricity only accounts for less than a quarter of global energy demand. “Heliogen represents a technological leap forward in addressing the other 75 percent of energy demand: the use of fossil fuels for industrial processes and transportation,” he added.
The startup has attracted the support of philanthropist Bill Gates.
“I’m pleased to have been an early backer of Bill Gross’s novel solar concentration technology,” Gates said. “Its capacity to achieve the high temperatures required for these processes is a promising development in the quest to one day replace fossil fuel.”
Heliogen’s roadmap outlines future processes that could bring the temperature up to 1,500 degrees Celsius which is hot enough to perform CO2 splitting and water splitting in the production of 100 percent fossil-free fuels like hydrogen and syngas.


Marc's Portfolio Site Under Construction
If you've found your way here, it's probably because I sent you a link to my github page. Nothing much to see here yet.

- Hackathon First Place Winner (Dec 2015) - Cronopio, an alternative lending platform for eSports
- Hackathon First Place Winner (Feb 2016) - AzizBot, an AI-run conversational tone analyzer using IBM's Watson API
- Final Project: BotServer, a chatbot deployment platform using Node.js and a further refinement of AzizBot
- StarTrek CSS/Javascript: studies in javascript and page manipulationbr
- TicTacToe Javascript exercise
- Others to follow including RESTful API, AJAX/JSON, ORM, MVC Banking project, etc.
I'll be updating my public repo site regularly.
thanks and regards,
Marc B. Ira

MAN IN THE MIDDLE (director: Guy Hamilton; screenwriters: Willis Hall/Keith Waterhouse/based on Howard Fast's novel The Winston Affair; cinematographer: Wilkie Cooper; editor: John Bloom; cast: Robert Mitchum (Lt. Col. Barney Adams), France Nuyen (Kate Davray), Barry Sullivan (Gen. Kempton), Trevor Howard (Maj. Kensington), Keenan Wynn (Lt. Winston), Sam Wanamaker (Maj. Kaufman) Robert Nichols (Lt. Bender), Gary Cockrel (Lt. Morse), Alexander Knox (Col. Burton), Russell Napier (Col. Thomson), Glenn Beck (Cpl. Burke); Runtime: 94; 20th Century-Fox; 1964-UK)
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
The man in the middle is caught in a political dilemma of whether to advance his career and go along with what the army wants or to buck the system and defend a man who is guilty but mentally sick. Lt. Col. Barney Adams (Robert Mitchum) is a war hero and career army man, called on during the waning days of WW11 to defend a Lt. Winston (Keenan Wynn), accused of killing a British staff sergeant in cold blood. Barney hasn't been in a courtroom in quite a while and only had one law case in his 18 years in service, so he is surprised when an old friend of his general father's, General Kempton (Barry Sullivan), asks the gimpy Purple Heart soldier to take the case. There is no doubt about his client's guilt, he has even confessed, but the Americans want a guilty verdict to appease their partners, the British, as they prepare to do battle together and hope that with the trial done legally and with a rigorous defense, that it would thereby reduce tension among the soldiers of both countries.
This melodramatic courtroom drama is set in India, in 1944, and is based on Howard Fast's novel The Winston Affair. In an army camp under joint British and American command, Lt. Winston marches into the quarters of the British soldier and shoots him in front of 11 witnesses. Barney is basically told by Kempton to put up a good fight but lose the case and let justice prevail as we hang the guilty man, thereby avoiding further embarrassment from the British and helping us ease the tension among the soldiers of both countries. There is also a promotion to full-bird colonel awaiting Barney if he wraps up the case in the way the army wants it. What the army command doesn't want is for Winston to get off on a plea of insanity.
Assigned to help Barney are Lt. Bender (Nichols) and Lt. Morse (Cockrel), two eager-beaver civilian lawyers in New York, who are draftees. They are prepared to work around the clock to defend their client. A black corporal (Beck) is assigned to be Barney's driver, whose purpose in the film is highlighted by the final shot of him driving Barney to the airport, as we see their black and white faces through the windshield, showing how complete integration is what awaits the army of the future.
On his own, in the few days he is here for this rushed trial, Barney meets a nurse, Kate Davray (Nuyen), who is half-French and half-Chinese, as he gets in a little interracial lovemaking with the serious-minded beauty between preparing his case. She works for the psychiatrist, Major Kaufman (Wanamaker), who interviewed Winston after the murder and wrote a report that he was insane. But the major's superior officer Col. Burton (Knox) rejected the report and took Kaufman off the case and had him transferred to another camp, as Burton formed a board of inquiry into the lunacy issue and found the accused to be sane by reason that he can determine right from wrong.
When Barney talks with his client and asks why he committed murder, Winston said because he was defiling the white race--he's not fit to live in a white man's world. The film brings up a few interesting points about defending such an unappealing man and how legitimate is the insane plea, which if allowed to be used as a plea could really bog down the justice system with criminals trying to manipulate the system.
This stunningly well-photographed film in black and white, has no real tension in the courtroom dramatics, which center on Barney's efforts to defend a client who doesn't want his help, and the ability of a British major, Dr. Kensington (Trevor Howard), an acquaintance of Kaufman's, to ascertain the mental competency of Winston and convince the court that Winston is insane. The filmmaker probably didn't feel confident enough with Kensington's testimony in favor of insanity and had Winston put on a show for the court to prove he was really nuts.
The film for all its soft spots, still had a good but enigmatic performance from Mitchum, whose motives for taking on the army bigwigs and putting a dent in his career are never made quite clear. Keenan Wynn was an appealing loony.  The film was interesting enough in spots to hold my attention, but it defeated its own purpose by making General Kempton so politically immoral and Wynn so nutty, that the film's liberal message can only be viewed as a muddled one.

The Lord of the Rings is an epic high-fantasy novel written by English author and scholar J. R. R. Tolkien. The story began as a sequel to Tolkien's 1937 fantasy novel The Hobbit, but eventually developed into a much larger work. Written in stages between 1937 and 1949, The Lord of the Rings is one of the best-selling novels ever written, with over 150 million copies sold. The title of the novel refers to the story's main antagonist, the Dark Lord Sauron, who had in an earlier age created the One Ring to rule the other Rings of Power as the ultimate weapon in his campaign to conquer and rule all of Middle-earth. From quiet beginnings in the Shire, a hobbit land not unlike the English countryside, the story ranges across Middle-earth, following the course of the War of the Ring through the eyes of its characters, most notably the hobbits Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin. Although generally known to readers as a trilogy, the work was initially intended by Tolkien to be one volume of a two-volume set, the other to be The Silmarillion, but this idea was dismissed by his publisher. For economic reasons, The Lord of the Rings was published in three volumes over the course of a year from 29 July 1954 to 20 October 1955. The three volumes were titled The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King. Structurally, the novel is divided internally into six books, two per volume, with several appendices of background material included at the end. Some editions combine the entire work into a single volume. The Lord of the Rings has since been reprinted numerous times and translated into 38 languages.
Top 10 Biggest Differences Between The Lord Of The Rings Movies And Books
Tolkien's work has been the subject of extensive analysis of its themes and origins. Although a major work in itself, the story was only the last movement of a larger epic Tolkien had worked on since 1917, in a process he described as mythopoeia.
Influences on this earlier work, and on the story of The Lord of the Rings, include philology, mythology, religion and the author's distaste for the effects of industrialization, as well as earlier fantasy works and Tolkien's experiences in World War I. The Lord of the Rings in its turn is considered to have had a great effect on modern fantasy; the impact of Tolkien's works is such that the use of the words "Tolkienian" and "Tolkienesque" has been recorded in the Oxford English Dictionary. The enduring popularity of The Lord of the Rings has led to numerous references in popular culture, the founding of many societies by fans of Tolkien's works, and the publication of many books about Tolkien and his works. The Lord of the Rings has inspired, and continues to inspire, artwork, music, films and television, video games, board games, and subsequent literature. Award-winning adaptations of The Lord of the Rings have been made for radio, theatre, and film. In 2003, it was named Britain's best novel of all time in the BBC's The Big Read. In 2015, the BBC ranked The Lord of the Rings 26th on its list of the 100 greatest British novels.
The narrative follows on from The Hobbit, in which the hobbit Bilbo Baggins finds the Ring, which had been in the possession of the creature Gollum. The story begins in the Shire, where Frodo Baggins inherits the Ring from Bilbo, his cousin[c] and guardian. Neither hobbit is aware of the Ring's nature, but Gandalf the Grey, a wizard and an old friend of Bilbo, suspects it to be the Ring lost by Sauron, the Dark Lord, long ago. Seventeen years later, after Gandalf confirms this is true, he tells Frodo the history of the Ring and counsels him to take it away from the Shire. Frodo sets out, accompanied by his gardener, servant and friend, Samwise "Sam" Gamgee, and two cousins, Meriadoc "Merry" Brandybuck and Peregrin "Pippin" Took. They are nearly caught by the Nazgûl, but shake off their pursuers by cutting through the Old Forest. There they are aided by Tom Bombadil, a strange and merry fellow who lives with his wife Goldberry in the forest. The hobbits reach the town of Bree, where they encounter a Ranger named Strider, whom Gandalf had mentioned in a letter. Strider persuades the hobbits to take him on as their guide and protector. Together, they leave Bree after another close escape from the Nazgûl. On the hill of Weathertop, they are again attacked by the Nazgûl, who wound Frodo with a cursed blade. Strider fights them off and leads the hobbits towards the Elven refuge of Rivendell. Frodo falls deathly ill from the wound. The Nazgûl nearly capture him at the Ford of Bruinen, but flood waters summoned by Elrond, master of Rivendell, rise up and overwhelm them. Frodo recovers in Rivendell under Elrond's care. The Council of Elrond discusses the history of Sauron and the Ring. Strider is revealed to be Aragorn, Isildur's heir. Gandalf reports that the chief wizard Saruman has betrayed them and is now working to become a power in his own right. The Council decides that the Ring must be destroyed, but that can only be done by sending it to the fire of Mount Doom in Mordor, where it was forged. Frodo takes this task upon himself. Elrond, with the advice of Gandalf, chooses companions for him. The Company of the Ring. also called the Fellowship of the Ring, are nine in number: Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Aragorn, Gandalf, Gimli the Dwarf, Legolas the Elf, and the Man Boromir, son of Denethor, the Ruling Steward of the land of Gondor.

Djokovic braces for onslaught from Federer fans
London - Novak Djokovic is bracing himself to battle Roger Federer and his army of fans as he seeks to equal the Swiss player's record tally of six ATP Finals titles.
The Serbian world No 2 started his campaign on Sunday with a straightforward 6-2, 6-1 victory over Italy's Matteo Berrettini.
Federer, seeded three in London, lost to fifth seed Dominic Thiem 7-5, 7-5 in the evening match.
But all eyes are on a mouth-watering repeat of the Wimbledon final in Group Bjorn Borg later in the week - the top two players from the four-man group qualify for the semi-finals.
Djokovic, 33, saved two match points on Federer's serve to win his fifth Wimbledon crown despite overwhelming support for the Swiss from the crowd in July.
Speaking after his victory at the O2 Arena on Sunday, Djokovic said he understood why Federer had such a huge following and explained his strategy to feed off the energy of the crowd.
"I understand why there is so much support for Roger," said Djokovic of the 20-time Grand Slam champion.
"He is who he is. And what he has achieved and the personality that he is, he deserves that.
 It's something throughout my career I had to learn how to handle, how to accept, and how to deal with that."
The Serbian, who has won 16 majors and is chasing the end-of-year number one ranking, said he had twisted "Roger, Roger" chants into Novak chants in his mind at Wimbledon.
"When I said that I was kind of trying to transform the chanting into 'Novak, Novak' when I heard 'Roger', that's really what I try to do," he said.
"It really works mentally in these kinds of moments. It will not be anything particularly different in terms of my reaction if that happens."
Djokovic said he would focus on what worked for him in order to win.
"Obviously there is a lot of people and tennis fans that like to see us going head to head, and of course I understand that, and hopefully it's going to be a packed house and everyone will enjoy their tennis."
Results on the first day of the ATP Finals at London's O2 Arena on Sunday (x denotes seeding):
Singles
Group Bjorn Borg
Novak Djokovic (SRB x2) bt Matteo Berrettini (ITA x8) 6-2, 6-1
Dominic Thiem (AUT x5) bt Roger Federer (SUI x3) 7-5, 7-5

Board.
Learned senior counsel for the applicant has straightway drawn attention of this Court towards the judgment delivered by this Court in the case of Arun Mathur and another Vs. M.P. Pollution Control Board (Cr. Rev. No. 472 / 2004, decided on 14/8/2007) and his contention is that in similar circumstances as there was no sanction u/S. 197 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, the proceedings were quashed by this Court. In the aforesaid case, the prosecution was under the provision of Pollution Control Act, 1986. Reliance has also been placed upon the judgment delivered by the Punjab & Haryana High Court in the case of Punjab State Board for Prevention and Control of Water Pollution Vs. Raghunath (Cr. Rev. No. 181 / 1990, decided on 10/8/2000). In the aforesaid case also the accused persons were discharged for want of sanction u/S. 197 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973. Reliance has also been placed upon the judgment delivered by this Court in the case of Rambabu Jakhenia Vs. Purshottam reported in 2007 (2) MPLJ 261; Kailash Chandra Vs. M. P. Pollution Control Board reported in 2010 (2) MPJR 226; and lastly, upon the judgment delivered by the apex Court in the case of Omprakash Vs. State of Jharkhand (Cr. A. No. 1491 / 2012, decided on 26/9/2012) wherein the apex Court has held that ground of sanction can be taken at the initial stage also.
On the other hand, Mrs. Preeti Waghmare, learned counsel for
--- 2 ---
the respondent - Board has placed reliance upon the judgment delivered by this Court in the case of Manish Singh and another Vs. M. P. Pollution Control Board (M.CR.C.No. 271/2006, decided on 22/9/2008) and her contention is that this Court has dismissed the petition preferred by Mr. Manish Singh who was Commissioner, Municipal Corporation, Bhopal in identical circumstances.
This Court has carefully gone through the judgment delivered in the case of Manish Singh (supra). The aforesaid judgment nowhere deals with the point of sanction and, therefore, the judgment relied upon by the learned counsel for the respondent is distinguishable on facts.
Keeping in view the aforesaid, this Court is of the considered opinion that learned senior counsel for the applicant has been able to make out a prima faice case for grant of interim relief.
Resultantly, all further proceedings in respect of Complaint No. 13672/2015 pending before the Court of CJM, Indore shall remain stayed till the next date of hearing.
The present petition is admitted for final hearing. List for hearing in due course.

How to link multiple docker-compose services via network
This scenario came from a question I was asked docker-compose and network connectivity between services defined in different docker-compose.yml files.
The desired result was to be able to define a docker-compose.yml in one file, and in a second docker-compose.yml have the ability to reach the first service via service or container name for development purposes.
Default scenario: Two separate docker-compose.yml and two separate default networks🔗
Let’s take a simple docker compose file.
version: '3'
services:
service1:
image: busybox
command: sleep infinity
When it starts up, a default network is created. Its name is based on the service name and the directory name of the docker-compose.yml file.
$ pwd
/tmp/docker-example/compose1
$ docker-compose up -d
Creating network "compose1_default" with the default driver
Creating compose1_service1_1 ... done
Second docker compose file🔗
version: '3'
services:
service2:
image: busybox
command: sleep infinity
Starting services in a second docker compose file, we see the same behavior. A new default network is created and used.
$ pwd
/tmp/docker-example/compose2
$ docker-compose up -d
Creating network "compose2_default" with the default driver
Creating compose2_service2_1 ... done
A side-effect of these isolated networks are that the containers are unable to ping one another by service name or container name.
Test: From Service 1 ping Service 2🔗
# By service name
$ docker exec -it compose1_service1_1 ping service2
ping: bad address 'service2'
# By container name
$ docker exec -it compose1_service1_1 ping compose2_service2_1
ping: bad address 'compose2_service2_1'
Test: Service 2 ping Service 1🔗
# By service name
$ docker exec -it compose2_service2_1 ping service1
ping: bad address 'service1'
# By container name
$ docker exec -it compose2_service2_1 ping compose1_service1_1
ping: bad address 'compose1_service1_1'
New scenario: Sharing a network between services🔗
If you want define services in multiple docker-compose.yml files, and also have network connectivity between the services, you need to configure your services to use the same network.
To create an external network, you can run docker network create <name>
. -- where <name>
can be a single string without spaces.
Creating the network🔗
$ docker network create external-example
2af4d92c2054e9deb86edaea8bb55ecb74f84a62aec7614c9f09fee386f248a6
Modified first docker-compose file with network configured🔗
version: '3'
services:
service1:
image: busybox
command: sleep infinity
networks:
default:
external:
name: external-example
Restarting the services
$ pwd
/tmp/docker-example/compose1
$ docker-compose up -d
Creating compose1_service1_1 ... done
Modified second docker-compose file with network configured🔗
version: '3'
services:
service2:
image: busybox
command: sleep infinity
networks:
default:
external:
name: external-example
Restarting the services
$ pwd
/tmp/docker-example/compose2
$ docker-compose up -d
Creating compose2_service2_1 ... done
After running docker-compose up -d
on both docker-compose.yml files, we see that no new networks were created.
$ docker network ls
NETWORK ID NAME DRIVER SCOPE
25e0c599d5e5 bridge bridge local
2af4d92c2054 external-example bridge local
7df4631e9cff host host local
194d4156d7ab none null local
With the containers using the external-example
network, they are able to ping one another.
Test: Service 1 ping Service 2🔗
# By service name
$ docker exec -it compose1_service1_1 ping service2
PING service2 (<IP_ADDRESS>): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from <IP_ADDRESS>: seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.054 ms
^C
--- service2 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.054/0.054/0.054 ms
# By container name
$ docker exec -it compose1_service1_1 ping compose2_service2_1
PING compose2_service2_1 (<IP_ADDRESS>): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from <IP_ADDRESS>: seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.042 ms
^C
--- compose2_service2_1 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.042/0.042/0.042 ms
Test: Service 2 ping Service 1🔗
# By service name
$ docker exec -it compose2_service2_1 ping service1
PING service1 (<IP_ADDRESS>): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from <IP_ADDRESS>: seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.041 ms
^C
--- service1 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.041/0.041/0.041 ms
# By container name
$ docker exec -it compose2_service2_1 ping compose1_service1_1
PING compose1_service1_1 (<IP_ADDRESS>): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from <IP_ADDRESS>: seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.042 ms
^C
--- compose1_service1_1 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.042/0.042/0.042 ms
As a note, you can configure your services to use a custom container name by declaring the
container_name
key under each service (i.e., at the same level asimage
).
Takeaway🔗
You can connect services defined across multiple docker-compose.yml files.
In order to do this you’ll need to:
- Create an external network with
docker network create <network name>
- In each of your docker-compose.yml configure the default network to use your externally created network with the
networks
top-level key. - You can use either the service name or container name to connect between containers.


Working with molecular geometric data
The 'AmesPAHdbIDLSuite_Geometry'-object exposes the molecular geometric data.
geometry = pahdb->getGeometryByUID( $
pahdb->Search("c<=20 neutral n=2 neutral"))
The 'AmesPAHdbIDLSuite_Geometry'-object provides both the 'Plot' and 'Structure'-methods to output the chemical structure of the PAH with provided UID. The first method uses IDL's PLOT-procedures to create the output, while the latter IDL object graphics.
; UID 18 = coronene (C24H12)
void = geometry->Plot(18)
img = geometry->Structure(18)
The 'Plot'-method will accept the 'Scale', 'Thick', and 'RGB'- keywords to control the scale at which the atoms are to be drawn, the thickness of the bonds, and if colors should be outputted as decomposed RGB, respectively. In addition, the 'NoErase' and 'Position'-keywords control display erasing prior plotting and the plot position in normalized coordinates, respectively. When the 'Resolution'-keyword is set, the plot will be rendered to IDL's Z-buffer device at given resolution and outputted as an image and returned to the caller. When the 'Save'-keyword is also set, a PNG-image will be generated as well, which will have the UID of the PAH molecule under consideration embedded in the filename. Lastly, the 'Angle'-keyword controls rotation of the structure around the z-axis.
; UID 18 = coronene (C24H12)
img = geometry->Plot(18, Scale=2.0, Thick=5.0, $
Resolution=[1200, 1200], /Save)
The 'Structure'-method will accept the 'Background' and 'Frame'-keywords to control background color and display of a wireframe. The 'Resolution'-keyword controls the dimension of the 3D-rendered output image. The 'Save'-keyword can be specified to save the generated image as a PNG-image as well, which will have the UID of the PAH molecule under consideration embedded in the filename. If in addition the 'Transparent'-keyword is specified as a color-triplet array, that color will be set to transparent in the generated PNG-file. The 'Axis' and 'Angle'-keywords can control axis and angle of rotation, respectively. With the 'View'-keyword set the generated structure will be displayed using IDL's XOBJVIEW routine. Lastly, when the 'Obj'-keyword is set, the generated IDLgrModel-object is returned to the caller.
; UID 18 = coronene (C24H12)
img = geometry->Structure(18, Background=[0, 255, 0], $
Resolution=[600, 600], $
/Save, Transparent=[0, 255, 0], $
/View)
In addition, the 'AmesPAHdbIDLSuite_Geometry'-object provides the 'Mass', 'Rings', and 'Area'-methods that return the calculated mass based on atomic masses, the number of 3-8 membered rings, and total surface area of the PAH molecules under consideration.
masses = geometry->Mass()
rings = geometry->Rings()
areas = geometry->Area()
Lastly, the 'Inertia'-method provides the moment of inertia matrices, which are diagonalized with the 'Diagonalize'-method, for the PAH molecules under consideration. The latter method can be particular useful to ensure proper alignment of the structure with the view before calling the 'Plot' or 'Structure'-methods.
matrix = geometry->Inertia()
geometry->Diagonalize

Australia's parliamentary IT system hacked earlier this year - report
The computer network of Australia's parliament was hacked earlier this year and data was stolen from the computers of several elected officials, the Australian Broadcasting Corp reported.
SYDNEY: The computer network of Australia's parliament was hacked earlier this year and data was stolen from the computers of several elected officials, the Australian Broadcasting Corp reported.
Security agencies discovered the attack on Jan. 31 this year and monitored it for a week before shutting down the network, Senate President Scott Ryan told a parliamentary committee, according to the ABC.
During the time the network was compromised, two senators and a small number of lower house members had "non-sensitive" data stolen, the ABC reported without giving detail of the theft.
"A small number of users visited a legitimate external website that had been compromised," the broadcaster quoted Ryan as telling the parliamentary committee on Thursday. "This caused malware to be injected into the parliamentary computer network."
The parliament's cybersecurity team stopped another attempted attack in late October, sending an email to users saying that malware had been detected in the system, the ABC reported. People on the parliamentary computer network were temporarily banned from accessing personal email accounts like Gmail, the broadcaster reported without citing sources.
In September, Reuters reported Australian intelligence officials had determined China was responsible for a cyber-attack on its national parliament and its three largest political parties before a general election in May.
The cyber intelligence agency, the Australian Signals Directorate, concluded in March that China's Ministry of State Security was responsible for the attack but recommended keeping the findings secret to avoid disrupting trade relations with Beijing, Reuters reported.
The Australian Signals Directorate did not immediately respond to a Reuters email seeking comment on Friday.

After reading Darren Acemoglu, MIT economist, in the Harvard Business Review the other day on the topic of threats to growth in the United States, I ran across this podcast with him from earlier this year. In it, he takes on Raghuram Rajan's main argument that
growing income inequality in the last part of the 20th century created a political demand for redistribution and various policy changes. This in turn created the push for higher home ownership rates and led to the distortions of the housing market that in turn led to excessive risk-taking in the financial market. Acemoglu suggests a simpler story where the financial sector through its political influence distorted the rules of the game, benefiting executives in the industry, which in turn led to outsized rewards and ultimate instability in the financial industry. The conversation discusses ways of distinguishing between these two arguments and what might be done to change the incentives of politicians.
The clarity with which Acemoglu explains his argument is worthy of the hour spent listening to the podcast, in itself. Add to that, the argument that Acemoglu is putting forward and its focus on political institutions rather than consumer behavior is much more in line with some of my concerns regarding the crisis. Well, I should be less sensationalist here. Acemoglu takes on the idea of differentiating between the two (political institutions and consumer behavior) rather than one of the other. None the less, in the never ending stream of punditry and waxing on and on about the financial crisis, I found this to be one of the better hours I spent.
