1. Six-month cooling period for granting divorce can be waived: SC
Context:
- The 1955 Hindu Marriage Act: It provides for a statutory cooling period of six months between the first and the last motion for seeking divorce by mutual consent.
In news:
Supreme Court observation:
- Minimum cooling period of six months for granting the decree of divorce under the Hindu law can be waived by a trial court if there was no possibility of cohabitation between an estranged couple, who are seeking divorce with mutual consent, can file waiver application after a week of filing the first motion.
- Period mentioned in Section 13B (2):
- Is not mandatory but directory.
- It will be open to the court to exercise its discretion in the facts and circumstances of each case where there is no possibility of parties resuming cohabitation and there are chances of alternative rehabilitation.
- Trails conducted using video conferencing: the trial court “can also use the medium of video conferencing and permit genuine representation of the parties through close relations, such as parents or siblings, where the parties are unable to appear in person for any just and valid reason as may satisfy the court, to advance the interest of justice
Basic Information:
The Hindu Marriage Act, 1955
Section 13B: Divorce by mutual consent.
(1) Subject to the provisions of this Act a petition for dissolution of marriage by a decree of divorce may be presented to the district court by both the parties to a marriage together, whether such marriage was solemnised before or after the commencement of the Marriage Laws (Amendment) Act, 1976 (68 of 1976)*, on the ground that they have been living separately for a period of one year or more, that they have not been able to live together and that they have mutually agreed that the marriage should be dissolved.
(2) On the motion of both the parties made not earlier than six months after the date of the presentation of the petition referred to in sub-section (1) and not later than eighteen months after the said date, if the petition is not withdrawn in the meantime, the court shall, on being satisfied, after hearing the parties and after making such inquiry as it thinks fit, that a marriage has been solemnised and that the averments in the petition are true, pass a decree of divorce declaring the marriage to be dissolved with effect from the date of the decree.]
(i) The period of 6 to 18 months provided in section 13B is a period of interregnum which is intended to give time and opportunity to the parties to reflect on their move. In this transitional period the parties or either of them may have second thoughts;
(ii) The period of living separately for one year must be immediately preceding the presentation of petition. The expression living separately’ connotes not living like husband and wife. It has no reference to the place of living. The parties may live under the same roof and yet they may not be living as husband and wife. The parties should have no desire to perform marital obligations;
(iii) The period of six to eighteen months time is given in divorce by mutual consent as to give time and opportunity to the parties to reflect on their move and seek advice from relations and friends. Mutual consent should continue till the divorce decree is passed. The court should be satisfied about the bona fides and consent of the parties. If there is no consent at the time of enquiry the court gets no jurisdiction to make a decree for divorce. If the court is held to have the power to make a decree solely based on the initial petition, it negates the whole idea of mutuality. There can be unilateral withdrawal of consent. Held, that since consent of the wife was obtained by fraud and wife was not willing to consent, there could be unilateral withdrawal, of consent.
2. Corrupt politicians always bounce back to power, observes SC
Context:
In news:
Supreme Court observations:
- Phenomenon seen in the past 25 to 30 years: MLAs and MPs, who face investigation for possessing wealth disproportionate to their known sources of income, always tend to bounce back to power.
- The court said the disproportionate assets cases against MPs and MLAs ought to be fast-tracked.
- Court questioned:
- Whether this phenomenon, coupled with the mercurial rise in the assets of politicians just within a span of five years between two successive elections, was a product of ineffective investigation or of some “immunity” provided to them.
- Why the disproportionate wealth details of MLAs and MPs, who are representatives of the people, should not be disclosed to the public. There is no reason why the law should provide these public servants any immunity.
- Even information with respect to their (MPs and MLAs) income tax details should be open for disclosure… Why should information relating to the representatives of the people, who are public servants, get immunity?
- Directive given to the government: “If an MLA’s or MP’s assets have seen a 10X rise in 2019 from what he revealed in 2014, should you not conduct an enquiry into the very propriety of a person holding public office enjoying such phenomenal rise in his assets… The moment a candidate has shown 1000% increase in his income in the past five years, please have a mechanism to conduct an enquiry,”
- 1993 N.N. Vohra Committee Report highlighted the criminalisation of politics and the nexus among politicians, criminals and bureaucrats.
3. Chakmas to be made citizens
In News:

- The Arunachalis have opposed giving any rights to Chakma-Hajongs.
- They would be free to buy land anywhere else in India but not in Arunachal Pradesh.
Basic Information:

1. Inflation quickens in August, even as industrial growth sees mild recovery
Key Macro-economic stats:
- Data released by the Central Statistics Office showed Index of Industrial Production (IIP) grew at 1.2% in July from a contraction of 0.2% a month ago.
- Consumer price index based inflation continued to rise for the second consecutive month, by 3.36% from 2.36% a month ago as food inflation turned positive after three months of contraction.
- Inference: India’s industrial production recovered to grow only mildly as growth in manufacturing output remained flat with introduction of goods and services tax (GST) which continued to disrupt production networks while retail inflation quickened in August ruling out any rate cut by the central bank in the near future.
2. Why India needs a bullet train
Context:
- Prime Ministers Narendra Modi and Shinzo Abe will be laying the foundation stone of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High Speed Rail (MAHSR) project, popularly known as the bullet train
Advantages
- Attractive low-cost long-term financing.
- Government of Japan will provide a soft loan of about Rs 90,000 crore at an interest rate of 0.1 per cent over 50 years.
- Such loan, from other multilateral or bilateral development financing institutions, would cost between 3-7 per cent with a repayment period of 20-30 years.
- Stimulus for advanced components’ manufacture and construction
- One of the stated objectives of the project is “Make in India”
- As per the agreement the MAHSR Project has “localised manufacture” and “transfer of technology” as objectives.
- This project is likely to generate employment for about 20,000 workers, who will then be equipped to take up construction of more such projects in India.
- The new areas where construction skills would be developed are ballast-less track, under sea tunneling et al.
- Professional capacity-building.
- A dedicated High Speed Rail Training Institute is being developed at Vadodara.
- This institute will be fully equipped with equipment and facilities, such as a simulator, as exist in the training institute at Japan.
- There are two types of services proposed. A “rapid train” service with only two stops — at Surat and Vadodara — and a slower service that halts at 10 stations en route.
- The “rapid train” would complete the journey in 2 hours and 7 minutes, while the slower service would take 2 hours and 58 minutes.
- Cutting edge operational technology.
- The Shinkansen technology is renowned for its reliability and safety.
- The train delay record of Shinkansen is less than a minute with zero fatalities.
- The technology regarding disaster predictions and preventions will also be acquired as part of the project.

1. A fragile ark that shelters 2,626 creatures
In news:
- Zoological Survey of India (ZSI) has come out with a compendium of animal species in the Indian Sundarbans, estimating that there are 2,626 of them in the fragile island ecosystem.
- First edition: “Fauna of Sundarban Biosphere Reserve” is the first consolidated and updated information of the faunal diversity of the Sundarbans. It lists over 2,600 species, including the new species described from the mangrove ecosystem as well as threats faced by them due to climate change
- The listing includes a diverse 25 phyla, as they are biologically classified.
- The Indian segment of the Sundarbans, part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, forms part of the Ganga-Brahmaputra delta across 9,630 sq. km, distributed among 104 islands.
- Due to pressure on habitat from people and natural threats that have shrunk the mangrove swamp habitat, mammal numbers are declining.
- Key Species :
- The fortunes of 50 mammalian species including the Asian small-clawed Otter, Gangetic Dolphin, Grey and Marsh Mongoose and the wild Rhesus Monkey, the only primate here, are also documented.
- Rhinos, Swamp deer, Barking deer and Hog deer and Asiatic Wild Water Buffalo are not found in Sundarbans anymore.
- There are 356 species of birds, the most spectacular being raptors, or birds of prey, that occupy the highest canopies of the forest. Osprey, Brahminy Kite and White-Bellied Sea Eagle are dominant, while Rose-ringed parakeets, flycatchers and warblers are also found in the middle tier, while in the lower tier, kingfishers abound — and the Sundarbans has nine of them.
- There are 11 turtles, including the famous Olive Ridley and Hawskbill sea turtles and the most threatened freshwater species, the River Terrapin.
- A crocodile, 13 lizards including three species of Monitor Lizards and five Geckos are found here. The rivers, creeks channels and the islands together harbour about 30 snake species, led by the King Cobra, considered vulnerable by IUCN.
- Others documented are the Monocellate or monocled cobra, Russell’s viper, common and banded kraits. Besides, ten species of frogs and toads are found.
- Cartilaginous fish : The mangrove ecosystem covers about 350 species of fish. Cartilaginous fish, which have skeletons of cartilage rather than bone, make up 10.3%. The IUCN conservation status shows 6.3% fish are near-threatened and 4.85% are threatened. Also, there are 173 molluscs.
- In another indication of its richness, 753 insect species are encountered in the Sundarban Biosphere Reserve. Of these, 210 are butterflies and moths. Moreover, Crustaceans — crabs, shrimp and prawns — constitute 334 species

UNAIDS ‘90-90-90’ target by 2020: As per the ‘90-90-90’ target
- 90% of all HIV infected persons should get diagnosed and know their HIV positive status.
- Ninety per cent of these diagnosed HIV positive persons are to be provided regular Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), and
- 90% of people taking ART should show signs of viral suppression, which reduces their scope of infection.
This would result in controlling HIV infection to sustainable limits by 2030.

BMView
public protocol BMView : AnyObject
A protocol that views should conform to.
Its main goal is to help structure the code in a more clean, organized way.
Example
/// An image based checkbox.
open class SKCheckbox: UIControl, BMView {
// MARK: - Properties
/// The currently displayed checkbox Image.
private var checkboxImage = UIImageView()
/// Overriding the original method to update the icon based on state.
open override var isEnabled: Bool {
didSet { self.update() }
}
// MARK: - Interactions
public var valueDidChange: ((_ checkbox: SKCheckbox, _ oldValue: Bool) -> Void)?
// MARK: - init
/// `init` via code.
public override init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
self.configure()
self.update()
self.layout()
}
/// `init` via IB.
public required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: aDecoder)
self.configure()
self.update()
self.layout()
}
// MARK: - CSUL
public func configure() {
self.addSubview(self.checkboxImage)
}
public func style() {
// style the default looks of the view and its subviews.
}
public func update() {
// update UI when isEnabled changes status, among other things.
}
public func layout() {
// layout the `checkboxImage` and other potential subviews.
}
}
The view exposes properties and interactions to the outside world.
The properties deal with the state of the element, whereas the interactions are callbacks to interact with changes inside the element.
The lifecycle of the view is composed of configure
, style
, update and
layout`.
Configure
Executed once when the view is instatiated. It deals with configuring the view. For instance, a typical usecase would be to add subviews, or setup interactions.
func configure() {
self.addSubiew(sel.checkboxImage)
}
Style
Executed once when the view is instatiated. It deals with applaying the basic static styling to the view. In other words element properties that are independent of the state of the element are applied here. If the background of the element always has the same color, the background color is set here.
func style() {
self.backgroundColor = .white
}
Update
Update is not directly called when the object is instantiated but rather when a state related value changes its state. Inside of the update, changes should be made to the UI to reflect the new state.
open override var isEnabled: Bool {
didSet { self.update() }
}
Layout
Excecuted once when the view is instatiated. It layouts the subviews as intended.
func layout() {
self.checkboxImage.frame = self.bounds
-
The view is configured at this level. The configuration should be called once inside the
init
. Things like adding subview, and targets to buttons are done here.Declaration
Swift
func configure()
-
The styling of the view’s static elements is done at this level. The styling should be called once inside the
init()
, after theconfigure()
phase. Styling elements that depend on thestate
of the view should go into update.Declaration
Swift
func style()
-
update()
should be called everytime thestate
of the view changes.Declaration
Swift
func update()
-
During this phase the layouting of the subviews takes place.
Declaration
Swift
func layout()


Final Notes
This covers the majority of the problems you will see in this course. Keep these final notes in mind as you work out the answers to our questions:
- Be sure to check your formatting when you enter numerical responses. Don't get frustrated; computers can be picky.
- Sometimes our problems are randomized so that each student sees a slightly different problem. You may see different numbers, text, or even images, from what other students see. You may see problems in different orders, or in different locations.
- When asking for help on the discussion forum, don't say things like "I answered D and it was wrong! Why?" because that gives away an answer. You shouldn't give away even wrong answers.
- Don't be afraid to use the (insert link to discussion forum). We are all here to support one another!

You may wish to begin by reading the text widget conceptual overview which gives an overview of all the objects and data types related to the text widget and how they work together.
The GtkTextTagTable implementation of the GtkBuildable interface supports adding tags by specifying “tag” as the “type” attribute of a <child> element.
An example of a UI definition fragment specifying tags:
1 2 3 4 5 |
<object class="GtkTextTagTable"> <child type="tag"> <object class="GtkTextTag"/> </child> </object> |
GtkTextTagTable *
gtk_text_tag_table_new (void
);
Creates a new GtkTextTagTable. The table contains no tags by default.
gboolean gtk_text_tag_table_add (GtkTextTagTable *table
,GtkTextTag *tag
);
Add a tag to the table. The tag is assigned the highest priority in the table.
tag
must not be in a tag table already, and may not have
the same name as an already-added tag.
void gtk_text_tag_table_remove (GtkTextTagTable *table
,GtkTextTag *tag
);
Remove a tag from the table. If a GtkTextBuffer has table
as its tag table,
the tag is removed from the buffer. The table’s reference to the tag is
removed, so the tag will end up destroyed if you don’t have a reference to
it.
GtkTextTag * gtk_text_tag_table_lookup (GtkTextTagTable *table
,const gchar *name
);
Look up a named tag.
void gtk_text_tag_table_foreach (GtkTextTagTable *table
,GtkTextTagTableForeach func
,gpointer data
);
Calls func
on each tag in table
, with user data data
.
Note that the table may not be modified while iterating
over it (you can’t add/remove tags).

Let's Sort Things Out
Aug 10, 2015
Bubble Sort - The Basic Sort
Bubble sort is one of the most basic sorting algorithm. If you are not familiar with the bubble sort, watch this. Bubble sort is sometimes reffered as sinking sort, is a simple sorking algorithm that REPEATEDLY steps through the list to be sorted. Because it's refetitive chatacter, performance of the average complexity is O(n2). We will talk about the performance at the end of this blog. Let's code.
There are two important things. First, when we switch the position of target and next_target, first, I was reassigned the target and next_target values. This is wrong. Once I assigned the variable like target and next_target here, there value are not arr[i] but the value of arr[0] in this case, whatever the first number in the "arr". So even though the target and next_target value switched, the order of the arr will not be changed. Instead, vaiable name to the arr[i+1] and arr[i]. In this way, I am able to switch the position.
Second, the for i loop should be stop arr.length-2. Otherwise, there will be error because there is no next_target.
Merge Sort - Smarter Sort
Merge sort is most well known in computer science. Because of its efficiency. The performance of mergesort is O(n log n) so it's significantly faster than bubble sort. Mergesort is a devide and conquer algorithm that was constantly rearrange numbers from the ordered list. If you are not familiar with a mergesort, check this out. Threre are two steps are involved to create the merge sort. First, break down the element by 1 so it can be sorted. Second, arrange the sorted number to the new array.
In order to master this mergesort, the first thing to do is master recursion. Recursion is based on 'trust'. You must trust the fact that your recuring fuction will return exactly what you are expect to. For instance, the first_arr and second_arr will split to the arr length of 1. final1 and final2 will do exactly same thing until base case is satisfied, which is arr.length == 1. If you need to understand more about recursion. I recommend to watch CS50- recursion or go to my next blog.

The Prestige is a 2006 British-American mystery thriller film directed by Christopher Nolan from a screenplay adapted by his brother Jonathan from Christopher Priest's 1995 novel The Prestige. Its story follows Robert Angier and Alfred Borden, rival stage magicians in London at the end of the 19th century. Obsessed with creating the best stage illusion, they engage in competitive one-upmanship with tragic results.
The film stars Hugh Jackman as Robert Angier, Christian Bale as Alfred Borden, and David Bowie as Nikola Tesla. It also stars Scarlett Johansson, Michael Caine, Piper Perabo, Andy Serkis, and Rebecca Hall. The film reunites Nolan with actors Bale and Caine from Batman Begins and returning cinematographer Wally Pfister, production designer Nathan Crowley, film score composer David Julyan, and editor Lee Smith.

My favorite way, and the one i advise if you are building a medium to large size application is to place all your configuration keys on a config.py file
next you only have to import them to the Flask app object, like this
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object('config')
Take a look at the skeleton config.py

Please open the Chrome (browser) console on this page!
To get your accounts (at startup two accounts are provided with each 1000 coins on balance)
> let accounts = await webclient.getAccounts()
To get your balance
> await webclient.getBalance(accounts[0])
To transfer coins use transfer (account, to, amount, message, password)
> await webclient.transfer(accounts[0], accounts[1], 1, 'Message for cashbook', '1234');
To create a new account use createAccount (password)
> await webclient.createAccount('1234')
To change the password of an account use changePassword (account, oldPassword, newPassword)
> await webclient.changePassword(accounts[0], '1234', 'newpassword')
To get your current contracts (kept per node in a wallet file)
> await webclient.getContracts()
To compile all the modified contracts stored in the contracts folder
> await webclient.compile()
To upload a contract in the console:
Press run (right click snippet name)
Now you will have your class available in the current scope
Go to the console tab
> await webclient.upload(HelloWorld)
To deploy a contract use deploy (account, password, contract)
> let deploy = await webclient.deploy(accounts[0], '1234', 'HelloWorld')
To get an instance of the contract use getContract (address, account)
> let helloWorld = await webclient.getContract(deploy.address, accounts[0])
To call a contract function
> let result = await helloWorld.hello('world')
For each function in the contract there is a onFunctionName
listener available which is triggered when the function is called.
> helloWorld.onHello = (result, options) => { console.log(result) }
From wherever a function is called, each clientnode will receive a notification. In the options.caller
the calling account is set.
On each instance of a contract a database
property is set. This property contains functions to handle the associated contract collection.
For each deployed contract a database mondgodb collection is created. Contracts have read and write access to this collection. Read operation can
be performed on the entire database. In that case pass the address (which is the collection name) to the query function.
As an example two functions are added to the HelloWorld contract.
`
setData(data) {
return this.database.insert(data);
}
getData(query) {
return this.database.query(query);
}
Functions which do database calls should return a Promise always.
The available functions are.
Read operation over the entire state or database
There are two static collections (accounts
and contracts
) on which can be searched on address as id. Other collections are contract addresses.
These functions can only be performed on the contract collection.
To store data in the contract database
> await helloWorld.setData({ _id: 1, message: 'Hello world' });
To get data from the contract database
> await helloWorld.getData({ _id: 1 });

Settle an async function. It will always complete successfully with an object of the resulting state.
Handles completion and errors for callbacks, promises, observables and streams.
Will run call the function on nextTick
. This will cause all functions to be async.
var asyncSettle = require('async-settle');
asyncSettle(function(done){
// do async things
done(null, 2);
}, function(error, result){
// `error` will ALWAYS be null on execution of the first function.
// `result` will ALWAYS be a settled object with the result or error of the first function.
});
var asyncSettle = require('async-settle');
asyncSettle(function(done){
// do async things
done(new Error('Some Error Occurred'));
}, function(error, result){
// `error` will ALWAYS be null on execution of the first function.
// `result` will ALWAYS be a settled object with the result or error of the first function.
});
asyncSettle(fn, callback)
Takes a function to execute (fn
) and a function to call on completion (callback
).
fn([done])
Optionally takes a callback (done
) to call when async tasks are complete.
Executed in the context of async-done
, with all errors and results being settled.
Completion is handled by async-done
completion and error resolution.
callback(error, result)
Called on completion of fn
and recieves a settled object as the result
argument.
The error
argument will always be null
.
Settled values have two properties, state
and value
.
state
has two possible options 'error'
and 'success'
.
value
will be the value passed to original callback.

Youngtimer is a very young term to describe… . Exactly, what? If one approaches the subject basically, it should be written that youngtimer is simply a young classic. In the automotive passion, the phenomenon of fascination with adult cars is very popular today, motorcycle young still seem to be censored – wrongly! That's why this site has a mission to change that.
Let's consider what we perceive as a classic motorcycle? Junak, WSK, DKW RT125? And for example such Suzuki GSX 1300R Hayabusa? Not necessarily, but it's worth remembering that "Hayka" is already over twenty years old. Apart from this example, let us go back to the time when the motorcycle power of Japan was born. The Honda CB750 Four is now fifty years old, and there are those who still don't see it as a classic.
This site was created to show the history of motorcycles since the 1960s Japanese revolution, until the arms race of the late 1990s. My ambition is to guide you through different periods of one-track history.

Classification cats' easy but Clasifacaiton JavaScrypt committeee members diff9kult becuase they arent cats. Meouzer
Mouser knows what he is talking about. JavaScript messed up type information because there isn't a single cat on the JavaScript committee. The native type was great for typing in ECMA-2009 but for ECMA-20015 they threw it all away for nothing because they don't have cats who would be curious enough to check things out. So coding the type() function in Data Typing in JavaScript isn't as Simple as you Think was possible only by mere luck and the JavaScript prowess of the cats of the Meouzer consortium.
The predecessors of dtype() are type() and usertype(). userType() like type() should be useful to the programmer because it provides basic data typing infrastructure that JavaScript itself lacks. The code for userType() is expanded to obtain the dtype() typing function that types in great detail. However, the reader will have no use for dtype() most likely.
The dtype() function has two important roles. It provides the headers for the stringify() function so that deserialization can take place. It also detects objects that are not suitable for serialization.
| dtype(x) | The most specific thing to be said | Example value of x |
| "Window" | x is the window | window |
| "HTMLDocument" | x is the document | window.document |
| "Boolean[Prototype]" | x is the Boolean prototype | Boolean.prototype |
| "Boolean" | x is a Boolean class instance | new Boolean(true) |
| "Boolean[Object]" | x is a Boolean instance of degree 1. However type(x) is "Object" because x is not a Boolean class instance. | Object.create(Boolean.Prototype) |
| "Boolean[Object(2)]" | x is a Boolean instance of degree 2. However type(x) is "Object" because x is not a Boolean class instance. | Object.create(new Boolean(true)) |
| "Boolean[Object(2)]" | x is a Boolean instance of degree 2. However type(x) is "Object" because x is not a Boolean class instance. | Object.create(Object.create(Boolean.prototype)) |
| "Function" | x is a function | Boolean |
| "Function[Object(2)]" | x is a Function instance of degree 2. However type(x) is "Object" because x is not a Function class instance. | Object.create(Boolean) |
| "NullObject" | x is a null object, 1 degree from null | Object.create(null) |
| "NullObject(2)" | x is a null object, 2 degrees from null | Object.create(Object.create(null)) |

You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder. After the avalanche, it took us a week to climb out. Now, I don't know exactly when we turned on each other, but I know that seven of us survived the slide... and only five made it out. Now we took an oath, that I'm breaking now. We said we'd say it was the snow that killed the other two, but it wasn't. Nature is lethal but it doesn't hold a candle to man.

Buttons are an essential way to interact with and navigate through an app, and should clearly communicate what action will occur after the user taps them. Buttons can consist of text and/or an icon, and can be enhanced with a wide variety of attributes.
For accessibility reasons, buttons use a standard `` element, but are enhanced with an `ion-button` directive.
_For more information, Check out the [API docs](../api/components/button/Button)._
Basic Usage
Demo

Covid/Pneumonia Predictions
The model backbone used here is resnet200d pretrained on imagenet , A bit about why resent200d and why not other architectures such as efficient nets , nfnets , vgg etc . resnet200d is supposed to perform better for xrays images by my experimentations and effnets and other perform not as good as resnet type architecture although i tried all the other architectures that i could possibly try and came to the conclusion that resnet200d indeed is the king for the backbone of my model the final layers are just Linear layers to classify into 3 categories i.e Covid , pneumonia and normal using CrossEntropyloss as loss function with some label smoothing I was thinking to make it as binary classification model by making 3 models for each class but didnt got as good performance as with multiclass model I have used ptyorch framework as i find it more flexible and it suits my working type . A bit about dataset images were already downscaled to 256*256 pixels hence i trained my model with these images and surpsingly model perform way better than i expected , i have done some heavy augmentations using albmunetations library with automated mixed precision training , i tried to use cutmix , mixup , fmix etc augmentations but they gave poor performance . I have also added Grad Cam to see what model is seeing while predicting. I have made the Source code Public it can be found here make sure to give credits if you use it for your research purpose !


Space Needle
Seattle, Wa
The Space Needle is an observation tower in Seattle, Washington, United States. It is a city landmark and is considered an icon of Seattle. It was built in the Seattle Center for the 1962 World's Fair, which drew over 2.3 million visitors. Nearly 20,000 people a day used its elevators during the event.


The connotations of this term differ sharply depending on the age and
exposure of the subject. Used of a person who is in or might be entering
`*larval stage* <../L/larval-stage.html>`__, it is semi-approving; such
wannabees can be annoying but most hackers remember that they, too, were
once such creatures. When used of any professional programmer, CS
academic, writer, or `*suit* <../S/suit.html>`__, it is derogatory,
implying that said person is trying to cuddle up to the hacker mystique
but doesn't, fundamentally, have a prayer of understanding what it is
all about. Overuse of terms from this lexicon is often an indication of
the `*wannabee* `__ nature. Compare
`*newbie* <../N/newbie.html>`__.
Historical note: The wannabee phenomenon has a slightly different flavor
now (1993) than it did ten or fifteen years ago. When the people who are
now hackerdom's tribal elders were in `*larval
stage* <../L/larval-stage.html>`__, the process of becoming a hacker was
largely unconscious and unaffected by models known in popular culture —
communities formed spontaneously around people who, *as individuals*,
felt irresistibly drawn to do hackerly things, and what wannabees
experienced was a fairly pure, skill-focused desire to become similarly
wizardly. Those days of innocence are gone forever; society's adaptation
to the advent of the microcomputer after 1980 included the elevation of
the hacker as a new kind of folk hero, and the result is that some
people semi-consciously set out to *be hackers* and borrow hackish
prestige by fitting the popular image of hackers. Fortunately, to do
this really well, one has to actually become a wizard. Nevertheless,
old-time hackers tend to share a poorly articulated disquiet about the
change; among other things, it gives them mixed feelings about the
effects of public compendia of lore like this one.

Using three separate methods of brewing coffee – V60, French press, espresso – we will offer our personal takings from the coffees we review, and score them on a 0 to 10 scale. The two of us have very different preferences and abilities, so we are able to provide our readers with a good viewpoint of the coffees.
The 0 to 10 scale is not a random score. We score on Aroma, Brightness, Mouthfeel, Flavor, Finish, Balance. These are scored 0 to 10, and are then averaged to find the final score for that method. At the end of the process of brewing all three methods – which are not done simultaneously – those three scores are then averaged to get the final score for that coffee.

DEAR BELOVED, I am Mrs. Christina Holden. Am married to Dr. Donald Holden. a Liberian who worked for Shell Oil Company in Nigeria,he died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were married for 11 good years without a child and were both born again Christians . Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible forbids. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of $10.5 Million (Ten Million five hundred thousand U.S.Dollars) with A Bank.Presently, this money is still under the safe keeping of the RESERVE FINANCE COMPANY Recently, my Doctor told me that I would notlast for the next Three(3) months due to my cancer problems. Though what disturbs me most now, i recently had stroke.Having known my condition, I decided to donate this fund to church or betterstill a Christian or muslim individual That will utilize this money theway I am going to instruct here in.  I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the reason for taking this bold decision. As soon as I receive your reply I will forward your personal information, such as Your full name, Your full address, with Your telephone and fax number to my lawyer through his email so that he will contact you as the legal owner of my fund before the bank will be transferring the fund into your nominated Bank Account in your country.  I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd,you will also promise me that you will not seat on the fund when it gets into your bank account. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life, any delay in your reply will give me room in serching for a church or Christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.Hoping to hear from you as soon as possible. Remain blessed in the name of the Lord. Yours in Christ, Mrs. Christina Holden.

Early research
The Internet protocol suite resulted from research and development conducted by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in the early 1970s. After initiating the pioneering ARPANET in 1969, DARPA started work on a number of other data transmission technologies. In 1972, Robert E. Kahn joined the DARPA Information Processing Technology Office, where he worked on both satellite packet networks and ground-based radio packet networks, and recognized the value of being able to communicate across both. In the spring of 1973, Vinton Cerf, the developer of the existing ARPANET Network Control Program (NCP) protocol, joined Kahn to work on open-architecture interconnection models with the goal of designing the next protocol generation for the ARPANET.
By the summer of 1973, Kahn and Cerf had worked out a fundamental reformulation, where the differences between network protocols were hidden by using a common internetwork protocol, and, instead of the network being responsible for reliability, as in the ARPANET, the hosts became responsible. Cerf credits Hubert Zimmerman and Louis Pouzin, designer of the CYCLADES network, with important influences on this design.
The network's design included the recognition it should provide only the functions of efficiently transmitting and routing traffic between end nodes and that all other intelligence should be located at the edge of the network, in the end nodes. Using a simple design, it became possible to connect almost any network to the ARPANET, irrespective of their local characteristics, thereby solving Kahn's initial problem. One popular expression is that TCP/IP, the eventual product of Cerf and Kahn's work, will run over "two tin cans and a string." As a joke, the IP over Avian Carriers formal protocol specification was created and successfully tested.
A computer called a router is provided with an interface to each network. It forwards packets back and forth between them. Originally a router was called gateway, but the term was changed to avoid confusion with other types of gateways.
Specification
From 1973 to 1974, Cerf's networking research group at Stanford worked out details of the idea, resulting in the first TCP specification. A significant technical influence was the early networking work at Xerox PARC, which produced the PARC Universal Packet protocol suite, much of which existed around that time.
DARPA then contracted with BBN Technologies, Stanford University, and the University College London to develop operational versions of the protocol on different hardware platforms. Four versions were developed: TCP v1, TCP v2, TCP v3 and IP v3, and TCP/IP v4. The last protocol is still in use today.
In 1975, a two-network TCP/IP communications test was performed between Stanford and University College London (UCL). In November, 1977, a three-network TCP/IP test was conducted between sites in the US, the UK, and Norway. Several other TCP/IP prototypes were developed at multiple research centers between 1978 and 1983. The migration of the ARPANET to TCP/IP was officially completed on flag day January 1, 1983, when the new protocols were permanently activated.
Adoption
Rando Hauben stated that in March 1982, the US Department of Defense declared TCP/IP as the standard for all military computer networking. In 1985, the Internet Architecture Board held a three-day workshop on TCP/IP for the computer industry, attended by 250 vendor representatives, promoting the protocol and leading to its increasing commercial use.
In 1985, the first Interop conference was held, focusing on network interoperability via further adoption of TCP/IP. It was founded by Dan Lynch, an early Internet activist. From the beginning, it was attended by large corporations, such as IBM and DEC. Interoperability conferences have been held every year since then. Every year from 1985 through 1993, the number of attendees tripled.
Back then, most of these TCP/IP stacks were written single-handedly by a few talented programmers. For example, John Romkey of FTP Software was the author of the MIT PC/IP package.[9] John Romkey's PC/IP implementation was the first IBM PC TCP/IP stack. Jay Elinsky and Oleg Vishnepolsky of IBM Research wrote TCP/IP stacks for VM/CMS and OS/2, respectively.
The spread of TCP/IP was fueled further in June 1989, when AT&T agreed to put into the public domain the TCP/IP code developed for UNIX. Various vendors, including IBM, included this code in their own TCP/IP stacks. Many companies sold TCP/IP stacks for Windows until Microsoft released its own TCP/IP stack in Windows 95. This event was a little late in the evolution of the Internet, but it cemented TCP/IP's dominance over other protocols, which eventually disappeared. These protocols included IBM's SNA, OSI, Microsoft's native NetBIOS, and Xerox' XNS.

Naomi Campbell Applauds Duchess Meghan For Taking Legal Action Against Tabloids
by Shakiel MahjouriNaomi Campbell is team Duchess Meghan all the way.
Campbell, 49, praised the Duchess of Sussex for taking legal action against The Mail on Sunday. The English supermodel told The Guardian how important it was for Meghan Markle to stand-up for herself.
“When I heard [she was taking legal action], I was like ‘Bravo. Good for her,'” Campbell shared.
She also suggested there is an element of racism attached to the negative coverage of Markle. Campbell compared Markle’s situation to the treatment of Serena Williams and others.
“We all know what that’s about,” she said. “I’ve seen how they treat Raheem Sterling, how they speak about Lewis Hamilton and Serena Williams. I don’t know how Meghan Markle deals with this and I’m really glad she’s taken action to defend herself.”
Markle and her husband Prince Harry are taking legal action against The Mail on Sunday and Associated Papers which owns the tabloid. The Duke and Duchess cite alleged misuse of private information, infringement of copyright and breach of the Data Protection Act 2018.

Using K-Means clustering we can group different people by how they spend their time.
These clusters do not assume any demographic information about the respondents but we are able to see different patterns of time use. For example, some clusters are obviously part-time workers while others are full-time, students appear in one cluster and we can see whether a group has children or not. The radius of the bubble in the diagram below indicates the average time spent on that activity for the particular group.
