Hello I'm Olarinde Olayemi Ayanfeoluwa, a student of the department of Microbiology, University of Lagos.
 A big fan of depth in practically anything. I love dancing, travelling, thinking, gisting and designing.
I've been able to conceive luluarts from my soul, in other words, lulu arts entails me in general.
Luluarts was established on the 30th of December, 2015 with the aim to capture souls, create a network between artists and art lovers or beginners, basically to channel/impact knowledge into them. Also its been set aside as a work space and gallery for art showcase (visual art, photography etc).
Luluarts consists of a few affiliates like; Un.earthical (photography), Charity with art(humanity) and Shako X Lulu (fashion).
In 2015, I ( luluarts) have bagged two awards (Unilag Nigma awards as the most creative student) and (University of Lagos science student awards as the most enterprising female) and have been nominated for 3
We are luluarts, and we offer a list of services which includes;

A list of class diffnet_adopters
with the following elements:
A factor vector of length \(n\) with 4 levels: "Early Adopters", "Early Majority", "Late Majority", and "Laggards"
A factor vector of length \(n\) with 4 levels: "Very Low Thresh.", "Low Thresh.", "High Thresh.", and "Very High Thresh."
Classifies (only) adopters according to time of adoption and threshold as described in Valente (1995). In particular, the categories are defined as follow:
For Time of Adoption, with toa
as the vector of times of adoption:
Early Adopters: toa[i] <= mean(toa) - sd(toa)
,
Early Majority: mean(toa) - sd(toa) < toa[i] <= mean(toa)
,
Late Majority: mean(toa) < toa[i] <= mean(toa) + sd(toa)
, and
Laggards: mean(toa) + sd(toa) < toa[i]
.
For Threshold levels, with thr
as the vector of threshold levels:
Very Low Thresh.: thr[i] <= mean(thr) - sd(thr)
,
Low Thresh.: mean(thr) - sd(thr) < thr[i] <= mean(thr)
,
High Thresh.: mean(thr) < thr[i] <= mean(thr) + sd(thr)
, and
Very High. Thresh.: mean(thr) + sd(thr) < thr[i]
.
By default threshold levels are not computed for left censored data. These
will have a NA
value in the thr
vector.
The plot method, plot.diffnet_adopters
, is a wrapper for the
plot.table
method. This generates a
mosaicplot
plot.

I've went through a lot of Sorc/RDD forms but nothing that really helps me with what I specifically want (mostly due to RP reasons, but I still want her to be quite strong).
If someone could please help, I would really appreciate...
Sorc/RDD/BG
-Elven Class -Sorc focused with epic spells and auto-still spells -Possibly 10 lvls of RDD -2+ lvls of BG for extra saves due to CHA -Spells-focused instead of melee
Basically...
I want a spellcasting sorc that has knowledge of spellsword so is actually able to fight in fullplate with a weapon if needed.
The problem is that I'm not sure how to do this, like how should I level? Should I level epic sorc first? Or earlier BG and RDD levels?
So a leveling guide and guide for feats would be EXTREMELY helpful for me.

Class EXTDisconnect
- java.lang.Object
-
- org.lwjgl.openal.EXTDisconnect
-
public final class EXTDisconnect extends java.lang.Object
Native bindings to theALC_EXT_disconnect
extension.In OpenAL, there is no way to know if a device has been lost, nor is there a spec-approved means to deal with this properly. While most people are using either PCI audio cards or a chip welded to their motherboard, there are many devices that are more dynamic in nature, such as USB and Firewire based-units. Such units may lose external power seperate from the system, or may have their cables unplugged at runtime. The OS may reassign the hardware to a higher-priority process. If nothing else, a user may unplug the hardware without a proper shutdown (or properly shut them down at the OS level and not within the application).
Other audio "devices" may vanish, too, such as the network connection that hosts a remote audio device like esound, nas, or arts.
In these cases, the OpenAL spec says nothing, which we must assume means that all resulting behaviour is totally undefined, including everything from continued function without audio output to a crash within the AL.
This extension, ALC_EXT_disconnect, strives to define AL behaviour in these cases and give the application a means to discover and deal with total device failure.
Device disconnect
If a device is unplugged, lost or otherwise damaged beyond functioning, the device is flagged as "disconnected" and the ALCdevice handle is considered a "zombie" device.
When a device is disconnected, the implementation will, in most respects, keep processing as normal. For example, even though there is no longer any output when a USB audio device is removed, setting and querying state on the Listener should keep functioning as expected.
All sources in the
PLAYING
state will immediately progress toSTOPPED
upon disconnect of their containing device. Any source started after the disconnect will immediately progress toSTOPPED
. As in any stopped source, this also means that queued buffers all go toPROCESSED
as well. Sources that are in thePAUSED
orINITIAL
state do not change on disconnect, but will follow this behaviour if the application later tries to promote them to thePLAYING
state.Zombie devices may not have new contexts created on them;
CreateContext
will fail, returning aNULL
pointer, if the specified device has been disconnected.The application may determine if a device has been disconnected by using the
CONNECTED
token withGetIntegerv
. When a device has been disconnected, the application is permitted to close the zombie device's handle in the normal way, and may choose to open a new device.Applications that use
CONNECTED
are encouraged to query it with relative frequency. A game, for example, should call it once per rendering frame, per device. A device may become disconnected at any time without warning.Once a device is disconnected, it will never become reconnected. Even if the user plugs the device back in, the application must close the existing zombie device handle and reopen it with
alc*OpenDevice()
.If device enumeration is available via ALC_ENUMERATION_EXT, ALC_ENUMERATE_ALL_EXT, or AL 1.1, the list of devices may change between calls as devices become disconnected and reconnected. To prevent race conditions, the pointer to device list strings provided to the application will remain valid until the next call to
GetString
. The implementation may either cache the result of the previous request or perform a complete device redetection during theGetString
call. As such, enumeration may not be a "fast call" and should not be called in time-sensitive code. If capture devices are available via ALC_EXT_capture or AL 1.1, disconnection management can be used with both output and capture devices. A disconnected capture device will continue to function, but will not report a larger number in theCAPTURE_SAMPLES
query. If the capture device had reported some number of samples were available but the samples were not transferred from the device to the AL at the time of disconnect, the AL should feed the application that amount of silence in theCaptureSamples
call. Future queries ofCAPTURE_SAMPLES
should report zero samples available.

Differential expression and phosphorylation of CTCF, a c-myc transcriptional regulator, during differentiation of human myeloid cells.
Abstract
CTCF is a transcriptional repressor of the c-myc gene. Although CTCF has been characterized in some detail, there is very little information about the regulation of CTCF activity. Therefore we investigated CTCF expression and phosphorylation during induced differentiation of human myeloid leukemia cells. We found that: (i) both CTCF mRNA and protein are down-regulated during terminal differentiation in most cell lines tested; (ii) CTCF down-regulation is retarded and less pronounced than that of c-myc; (iii) CTCF protein is differentially phosphorylated and the phosphorylation profiles depend on the differentiation pathway. We concluded that CTCF expression and activity is controlled at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels.

Uefa charge Belgium over Michy Batshuayi and Dedryck Boyata shirt mix-up vs Russia
The Hertha defender featured in the Euro 2020 qualifier while wearing Batshuayi’s shirt
by Jack RathbornBelgium have been charged by Uefa after a mix-up saw Dedryck Boyata wear Michy Batshuayi’s shirt.
The Hertha defender featured in the Euro 2020 qualifier against Russia, but could be seen with ‘Batshuayi’ and ‘23’ on the back of his shirt.
Boyata was named in the squad as No 4, but appears to have changed into a fresh shirt at half-time and accidentally picked up the wrong change of strip.
While Boyata wore the wrong shirt in the second half, Belgium’s backroom staff eventually noticed and the switch was made in the 57th minute.
The Chelsea forward joked later on Twitter, posting a picture with the caption: ”happy to have realised this kid’s dream”.
Uefa have applied a charge based on article 43 (1) of the competition’s regulations, which states: “Before each match, each team shall indicate in the relevant match sheet the numbers, full names, dates of birth and, if applicable, shirt names of the 23 players in the squad.”
A separate charge has been handed to Belgium for a “delayed kick-off”.

Notes: 1984 was the inaugural year. The course used for the 2004-2015 races were
measured on 22 Feb 2004, using a calibration course that subsequently was shown
to have been short. The course is estimated to have been on the order of
100 meters short. All races for 2004-2016 are assumed to have been short.

This document describes the interface between the UPC compiler and the UPC runtime for handling static user data (both shared and unshared) in UPC programs.
Within this document, 'static' user data means 'not dynamically allocated' (i.e., not allocated on the stack, nor with malloc(), upc_all_alloc(), or any other memory allocation function). All of a user's global and static variables in the regular C sense are static user data for the purposes of this document.
Allocating and initializing static data in UPC is much more challenging than in regular C, where the linker simply gathers up the static data defined in various object files and places it in an executable along with any initial values (all of which are, in C, known at link time at the latest). In UPC we cannot always know the size, location, or initial value of a variable at link time, and thus support from the runtime layer is needed to properly allocate and initialize static data. In the Berkeley UPC compiler, the mechanisms we use to set up static data also require us to also refer to it specially during program execution.
The following example shows data definitions from two UPC files (and a shared '.uph' header file) that are part of the same program--we will use this example to illustrate the steps that need to be taken with static UPC data. [Working UPC and C files for all the code shown in this web page can be found in the 'tests/foo_bar' subdirectory of the UPC Runtime distribution].
| foobar.uph |
| foo.upc |
| bar.upc |
As we can see, there are two types of data in a user's UPC program that we have to deal with: shared variables, which all UPC threads can see, and unshared variables, which are visible only to a single UPC thread. Note that 'pfoo' in bar.upc is NOT a shared variable: it is a local pointer, which happens to point to the shared integer type (it is of course not a 'normal' pointer, since more information is needed to point to a shared variable than an address. But this is a separate issue from whether it is itself shared or unshared). On the other hand, 'pbar' in foo.upc is a shared variable: it is a shared pointer to a shared integer. Also note that we've made the situation tricky by placing some of our pointers (pfoo and pquux) in a different file than the variable they are initialized to point to: in a regular C program, the linker handles resolving all such addresses, but in the UPC case things are not so simple...
In the Berkeley UPC compiler, .upc files are translated into .c files that have had all UPC specific constructs translated into C code. Below are two hand-translated .c files that should be similar to those that UPC compiler emits. Don't try to understand them all at first glance (especially the initialization code at the bottom of each file): the remainder of this document will go over each element in turn.
| foo.c [source file ] |
| bar.c [source file ] |
Support for properly converting multiple tentative definitions into a single variable requires special support from the linker (compilers cannot know when they see 'int foo;' whether the variable will be initialized in a different file).
Duplicate tentative definitions are rare in real code, and typically show up only in older C code. The 'extern' keyword is now typically used to avoid multiple definitions. However, since the UPC specification states that UPC officially follows the ANSI/ISO C specification except where explicitly noted otherwise, a UPC compiler ought to handle them. This specification contains a fair amount of logic dedicated specifically to handling tentative definitions correctly (although one of our two alternatives for handling unshared global UPC variables declared by the user does not currently support them completely, as explained later).
Note: the 'phaseless' upcr_pshared_ptr_t type is used (to save space and/or make address calculation easier) when the variable is either a scalar value that will live only on thread 0, or an array that either exists entirely on a single thread (i.e. is indefinitely blocked), or which uses the default UPC blocking of one element per block.
/*** UPC code ***/ shared int foo = 3; shared int bar; double do_sum() { static shared [3] double messy[16][4*THREADS] = { ... }; } /*** Translated C code ***/ upcr_pshared_ptr_t foo = UPCR_INITIALIZED_PSHARED; upcr_pshared_ptr_t bar; static upcr_shared_ptr_t do_sum_messy = UPCR_INITIALIZED_SHARED;A couple points are worth noting here.
The UPCR_INITIALIZED_{P}SHARED values are provided in upcr.h (as their values can differ across shared pointer representations), as are a pair of upcr_is_init{p}val() functions for testing pointers for that value. We use UPCR_INITIALIZED_PSHARED in foo.c to initialize the variables 'foo' and 'pbar': if 'foo' was also initialized in bar.upc the linker would catch the error.
double tmp; upcr_get_shared(&tmp, do_sum_messy, sizeof(double)*(16*i + j), sizeof(double)); total += tmp;Note that any optimizations performed by the compiler to avoid, schedule, or coalesce network traffic are performed above the level of the UPC runtime--the code here, for instance, might be altered by an enterprising compiler to use a single block copy per thread.
The allocation function must contain upcr_startup_{p}shalloc_t structs with the allocation information for each proxy pointer defined in the file:
upcr_startup_pshalloc_t pinfos[] = { { &foo, sizeof(int), 1, 0 }, { &bar, sizeof(int), 1, 0 } }; upcr_startup_shalloc_t infos[] = { { &do_sum_messy, 3*sizeof(double), 16*4*sizeof(double), 1 } }; /* Allocate shared data */ upcr_startup_pshalloc(pinfos, sizeof(pinfos) / sizeof(upcr_startup_pshalloc_t)); upcr_startup_shalloc(infos, sizeof(infos) / sizeof(upcr_startup_shalloc_t));A call to upcr_startup_{p}shalloc() is then made to actually allocate the shared memory for each proxy pointer (and spread the information about it to all of the node/threads in the UPC job). The function takes the address of the proxy pointer, the size and number of blocks of shared memory to allocate, and a flag indicating if the number of blocks should be multiplied by THREADS. The function also performs a bzero() on the data if it was never initialized by the user (which can be determined by noting whether the proxy pointer's initial value was UPCR_INITIALIZED_{P}SHARED or not).
In the initialization function for the file, all shared data that was initialized by the user must be assigned the correct values. Scalar shared values will all have affinity to thread 0, and so only that thread should run the code that sets the values. Here, for instance, is the relevant code from foo.c:
/* Explicit initializations of variables living only * on UPC thread 0 */ if (upcr_mythread() == 0) { *((int*)upcr_pshared_to_local(foo)) = 3; *((upcr_shared_ptr_t*)upcr_pshared_to_local(pbar)) = bar; }[Note that casting to local pointers is not the only way to achieve this--it was done here since calling upcr_put_pshared() would have first required storing the '3' in a temporary variable, and the author was feeling lazy. Compilers may generate any code that correctly does the job].
For arrays that are striped across UPC threads, initialization is trickier, and a helper function called upcr_startup_assignarray() function is provided. It takes a pointer to a local array from which the initial values for the shared array will be taken, and a set of information for each dimension of the arrays. Each thread initializes only the portion of the array which has affinity to it, to avoid unneeded network traffic. If the local array is not as large as the shared array, the remainder of shared array is filled with 0s.
double init_messy[1][5] = { { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 } }; upcr_startup_arrayinit_diminfo_t init_messy_info[] = { { 1, 16, 0 }, { 5, 4, 1 } }; upcr_startup_initarray(do_sum_messy, init_messy, init_messy_info, 2, sizeof(double), 3);See the UPC Runtime Specification for more details on the parameters and behaviors of these functions.
There are various ways to transform global/static data into thread-local data. The Berkeley UPC compiler supports two methods: a 'global struct' approach, and a 'tld section' approach. Both strategies cause all such data across all files to be coalesced into a single region, a copy of which is made for each thread. References to thread-local variables are then transformed into offsets into the current thread's region.
Each strategy has its disadvantages: the 'global struct' approach occasionally requires all .c files in a UPC application to be recompiled, and uses more memory at runtime. The 'tld section' strategy requires compiler and linker behaviors that are not portable across different C compilers.
While this discussion is concerned specifically with the case when the UPC compiler is generating C output, the strategies (especially the 'tld section' approach) should also be relevant to UPC compilers that generate straight to object code.
extern int defined_somewhere_else; /* same in both .upc and .c output */There is an important exception to this rule--unshared pointers to shared data still need to be transformed into upcr_shared_ptr_t's:
extern shared int *pint; /* in .upc */ extern upcr_pshared_ptr_t pint; /* in .c output */Although the UPC compiler need not transform a 'extern' declaration itself, it does need to note the fact that the data in question is thread-local since such items are not referred to in the normal way, as we will see below.
int mcfoobar = 999; /* in .upc */ /* in .c output */ int UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(mcfoobar, 4) = 999;The macro takes the name and size (in bytes) of the variable. The full type of the definition must come before the macro, so
int natural[3] = { 1, 2, 3}; void (*int_taker)(int) = &print_int;cannot be transformed into
int UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(natural)[3] = {1, 2, 3} void (*(UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(int_taker, 4))(int) = &print_int;Instead the UPC compiler must declare typedefs for array and function pointer definitions:
typedef int _type_natural[3]; _type_natural UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(natural, 12) = { 1, 2, 3 }; typedef void (*_type_int_taker)(int); _type_int_taker UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(int_taker, 4) = &print_int;Finally, static unshared definitions must be promoted to regular (unstatic) type and global scope, and when this is done, their names must be mangled to avoid any name collisions with other global variables that may exist in other files (the 'suspects' array in foo.upc is an example of such a variable). Such mangling should be done in a deterministic fashion, so that the name of the variable is not changed across compilations unnecessarily (it is OK for the name to change whenever the set of names/sizes of other global unshared data change, but it should not change otherwise).
int quux;at file scope in foo.upc becomes
int UPCR_TLD_DEFINE_TENTATIVE(quux, 4);in foo.c.
The macro otherwise works identically to UPCR_TLD_DEFINE.
To link and operate correctly with regular C libraries, UPC must not treat data it sees in .c/.h files as thread-local variables: instead it must treat them as regular global variables. Variables are recognized as being external C variables if they are declared/defined in a #included .h or .c file.
Of course, for this strategy to work with a pthreaded UPC process, all linked C code must be thread-safe. UPC applications which need to use non-thread-safe C code or libraries should compile and run their UPC code as single-threaded executables.
assert (quux == 0 || quux == 1);in foo.upc must be converted into
assert( *((int*)UPCR_TLD_ADDR(quux)) == 0 || *((int*)UPCR_TLD_ADDR(quux)) == 1);in foo.c.
int *pquux = &quux;must be handled specially (since the address of quux will be different on different pthreads). Local pointers to shared data also require special treatment:
shared int pfoo = &foo;cannot be correctly assigned until the shared memory for 'foo' is allocated at startup. The UPC compiler must recognize all such special cases, and perform the appropriate assignments in each file's initialization function (information on the per-file allocation/initialization functions is provided later in this document). The above two definitions in bar.upc, for instance, cause the following special logic in bar.c's initialization function:
(*((int**)UPCR_TLD_ADDR(pquux))) = UPCR_TLD_ADDR(quux); (*((upcr_shared_ptr_t*)UPCR_TLD_ADDR(pfoo))) = foo;
The compiler directives used in the explanation below are all specific to the GNU GCC compiler. They also may not work (even with GCC) if the target machine does not support the ELF object format. Other C compilers may use different compiler/linker directives to achieve the same effect, or may not support the strategy at all. For this reason UPC compilers which target C code as their output may find it easier (and more portable) to use the 'global struct' strategy. Authors of UPC compilers which directly produce object code, however, will probably find the 'tld section' approach more natural within a compiler context.
Finally, as specified here, the tld section approach does not support multiple tentative definitions of the same UPC variable in multiple files (it does support it for variables defined in external C header files). It has not yet been determined if full support for tentative definitions is achievable under the tld section approach--at a minimum it appears that a custom linker script would need to be written to make them work. In the worst case it could certainly be done by modifying the linker itself.
int UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(jrandomvariable, 4) = 9;becomes
int jrandomvariable __attribute__((section(".upc_tld"))) = 9;Any ELF-compatible linker will automatically coalesce the '.upc_tld' sections from the various object files into a single, contiguous '.upc_tld' section in the executable.
The party pooper: tentative definitions
You will note that we do not mention the UPCR_TLD_DEFINE_TENTATIVE macro
here. This is because we have not yet figured out a way to get it to
work correctly.
In regular C tentative definitions are placed in a special 'common' section of .o files. Multiple definitions of the same variable are permitted to exist in the various object files that are linked to form an executable, so long as at most one such variable is in an initialized data section. At link time the linker examines each variable defined in the common sections of the objects to be linked: if an initialized value exists, it is used, otherwise the object is created in the 'BSS' (i.e. it is created with an initial value of 0).
The gcc documentation states that the __attribute__((section)) directive only works with initialized values, and is ignored for uninitialized variables. In actuality, at least in recent gcc versions, the directive does not get ignored, and instead causes the variable to be put in the desired section with an initial value of 0. This, alas, is not sufficient, since if the same variable appears in multiple object files (even with the same initial 0 value), the linker declares a duplicate symbol error. One can avoid linker errors by causing the UPCR_TLD_DEFINE_TENTATIVE macro to use __attribute__(weak)), but this in turn causes the 'section' attribute to be ignored, so the variable will not be made thread-local.
It may be possible to have the UPCR_TLD_DEFINE_TENTATIVE use a different section name (ex: .upc_tld_common), and then somehow write a linker script that will treat that section with the common section's semantics at link time, but is not known if this will work (the author's several pleas for help on the gnu.gcc Usenet group have gone unanswered).
Another alternative may simply be to ban the use of multiple tentative definitions within UPC code, while supporting them for extern "C" code. Multiple tentative definitions can always be trivially avoided without any change in program semantics via the addition of an 'extern', and programmers writing new UPC code are unlikely to even notice the absence of full support for tentative definitions (C++, for instance, does not use tentative definitions--'int foo;' is equivalent to 'int foo = 0;'--but few programmers are even aware of this difference). Old C libraries may place tentative definitions in their header files, but since such code is treated as 'extern C' by the UPC compiler (and hence will not be converted into thread-local data), such definitions will still be handled correctly. If it is decided that support for multiple tentative unshared UPC variables is not needed, UPCR_TLD_DEFINE_TENTATIVE can simply be #defined to UPCR_TLD_DEFINE, and single tentative definitions will work correctly.
The UPC compiler will arrange to have the starting address and length of the .upc_tld segment written into two 'well-known' variables that are visible to the UPC runtime. This will probably need to be done in a linker script.
UPCR_TLD_ADDR(foo)which will return the equivalent of
(tld_addrs[MYTHREAD] + ( ((uintptr_t)&foo) - upc_tld_start))cast to a void pointer.
Since the 'tld_addrs[THREAD] - upc_tld_start' portion can be done only once, at startup, and then stored as a separate 'tld_offset[MYTHREAD]' variable, the cost of a lookup can be optimized to
tld_offset[MYTHREAD] + (unintptr_t)&foo)On most architectures, this should translate into a single indexed load instruction (assuming the value of tld_offset[MYTHREAD] is cached in a register).
UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(suspects_MANGLED, 8) UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(quux, 4)Note that any UPCR_TLD_DEFINE_TENTATIVE definitions are transformed into regular UPCR_TLD_DEFINEs in the .tld file (we do not need to distinguish between them here). Also, any duplicate definitions are discarded. Also note the lack of semicolons in the .tld file. Finally, the grep-like script will only overwrite an existing .tld data if its contents are different (this will only happen if a variable has been added/deleted/renamed, or its size has changed).
int quux;These regular global variables serve several purposes. First, they store the initial value (if any) for the definition. Secondly, they will cause the linker to catch any errors from the user initializing the value in multiple files. Third, the linker will handle tentative definitions of these variables correctly. These variables are otherwise unused in the final executable, and this is what makes the global struct approach consume more memory than the tld section approach (which can use the initial coalesced linker section of thread-local data as thread 0's section, only making copies for further threads).
#define UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(name, size) char name[size]; struct upcr_tld { #include "upcr_global_tld.tld" }; #undef UPCR_TLD_DEFINE /* at some point later in upcr.h or a file it includes... */ #define UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(name, size) nameAll variables are declared as the same type--arrays of char. This is done because it is virtually impossible to assemble the full set of type information that would needed to use the real types of the variables as they are declared in various scopes and .c files (the same type name may legally be used in different files/scopes to refer to different typedefs/structs. Correct ordering of type declarations is also difficult). Since the UPCR_TLD_ADDR macro returns a void * (and the compiler will always know what type to cast it to), this is not a problem. Alignment issues can be solved by sorting the definitions in the global tld file by size, and/or by padding the sizes of variables passed to UPCR_TLD_DEFINE{_TENTATIVE}.
#include <string.h> #include "upcr_global_tld.h" #undef UPCR_TLD_DEFINE #define UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(name, size) extern int name; #include "upcr_global_tld.tld" void upcri_startup_init_tld(struct upcr_tld *tld) { #undef UPCR_TLD_DEFINE #define UPCR_TLD_DEFINE(name, size) memcpy(&tld->name, &name, size); #include "upcr_global_tld.tld" }The function uses the values of the global variables left in the .c files as the source for initial values. Any initializations for which this simple memcpy is not sufficient must be handled in the special per-file initialization functions.
When the 'tld section' approach is used (or the UPC executable will run as a single-threaded process), the UPC compiler will also invoke the backend C compiler on its output .c files, the resulting .o files seen by the user will be regular C object files, and the UPC linker wrapper will simply send them directly to the regular C linker. When the 'global struct' approach is in use, however, UPC .o files will actually be copies of the .c files output by the UPC compiler: all compilation by the back-end C compiler will be done at link time, since this is the only time that enough information is available to know the full layout of the global thread-local data structure.
The fact that all C compilation occurs at link time in the global struct approach does not mean, however, that every intermediate .c file in a UPC application needs to be recompiled every time the application is linked. The fact that users typically link an application with the same set of files repeatedly can be exploited by the UPC linker to avoid needless recompilations. Under this scheme, UPC .o files will only be recompiled when the .o file itself has been changed (presumably because the user has modified and recompiled its parent .upc file), or when the size or layout of the global tld struct has changed (in which case all the UPC .o files in the application will need to be recompiled).
This optimization is performed via the following steps:
Note: The 'hidden' build directory and all the files it in will not be deleted after the link is complete. Thus, users will need to explicitly delete the 'upc-build' directory in their 'make clean' commands--it will never be deleted automatically for them.
The question then becomes how to arrange to call all of these functions at startup, how to name them in such a way that they do not collide in the symbol namespace, and how to determine the order in which they are called. The Berkeley UPC compiler takes the following approach to these issues:
The UPCR_INIT_ functions must perform all needed initializations of both shared and thread-local variables. The specifics of how this is done have already been described above in the relevant sections on shared and thread-local data initialization. The order in which TLD/shared initializations are performed within the functions should not be important.
nm *.o | grep UPCRI_ALLOC nm *.o | grep UPCRI_INITThese commands will provide lists of all the allocation/initialization functions in the UPC program. The UPC linker script will use these lists to generate a small .c file with two functions, one called upcri_linkergenerated_alloc() that calls all of the allocation functions, and one called upcri_linkergenerated_init() that calls all of the initialization functions. The order in which particular allocation/initialization functions are called by these functions is not specified, except that is is guaranteed that the same ordering will be used for all threads/nodes. The .c file is then compiled and the resulting .o file linked with the rest of the user's objects into the final UPC executable. [Note: if the names for functions are constructed in a deterministic manner--such as via the hash of the file's full pathname mentioned above--it may be possible to only need to compile this small .c file when the list of files being compiled changes, rather than each time the application is linked. But this would presumably not save a great deal of time, and may not be worth the complexity].

I was born and raised in the small island of Guam on 1985.
Throughout the years I have been exposed to a laid back
family-oriented lifestyle.
My parents moved from Korea post Vietnam War and started up a
construction company as the opportunity presented itself due
to the military build up at the time. They raised three kids (myself
included), two boys and one girl.
In 2003 I moved to Seattle to attend the University of Washington for
my bachelors. And then back to Guam in 2008 after the recession hit and
was unable to find a job. In 2012 I moved to Hawaii for opportunity, but
while the sun and beaches were fun to enjoy I found my life stagnating.
That is why I decided to join Code Fellows for an opportunity to pursue
a meaningful life time career.
My goals are to become a top-notch coder through the help of Code
Fellows and be able to make my folks proud of the career I've developed.

Comet parameter: max_fragment_charge
- This parameter sets the maximum fragment charge state that will
be considered in the analysis.
- Typically, the fragment charge state range that is analyzed is
from 1+ to one charge less than the precursor charge state.
- For high precursor charge states (i.e. 6+), the default behavior
would analyze fragment ions with 1+ through 5+ charges on them. This
parameter is a mechanism to limit the fragment charge range that is
analyzed.
- For example, if max_fragment_charge is set to 3 then the maximum
fragment charge state that will be analyzed is 3+. However, the default
rule will still limit 1+ and 2+ precursor ions to only have
1+ fragments considered. And similarly 3+ precursors will still only
have 1+ and 2+ fragments considered.
- Valid values are any non-zero integer.
- The default value is "3" if this parameter is missing. A maximum
allowed value of "5" is enforced for this parameter.
Example:
max_fragment_charge = 3


| lesson 15 Fifty pence worth of trouble |
| Children always appreciate small gifts of money. |
| Mum or dad, of course, provide a regular supply of pocket money, but uncles and aunts are always a source of extra income. |
| With some children, small sums go a long way. |
| If fifty pence pieces are not exchanged for sweets, they rattle for months inside money boxes. |
| Only very thrifty children manage to fill up a money box. |
| For most of them, fifty pence is a small price to pay for a nice big bar of chocolate. |
| My nephew, George, has a money box but it is always empty. |
| Very few of the fifty pence pieces and pound coins I have given him have found their way there. |
| I gave him fifty pence yesterday and advised him to save it. |
| Instead he bought himself fifty pence worth of trouble. |
| On his way to the sweet shop, he dropped his fifty pence and it bounced along the pavement and then disappeared down a drain. |
| George took off his jacket, rolled up his sleeves and pushed his right arm through the drain cover. |
| He could not find his fifty pence piece anywhere, and what is more, he could not get his arm out. |
| A crowd of people gathered round him and a lady rubbed his arm with soap and butter, but George was firmly stuck. |
| The fire brigade was called and two fire fighters freed George using a special type of grease. |
| George was not too upset by his experience |

One man put just $250 in this secret new bank account… And watched it grow to more than $886,000. What our Investigation found shocked us. And our guess is that the results will shock you too. Read this carefully because this might be the most life changing article for you!
You can now join a new underground banking system that’s been gaining popularity here in Australia. And what’s so incredible is how quickly a small deposit in this account can grow into a fortune – even in today’s ‘pay nothing’ interest world.
One man named Justin Dalley, for example, deposited just $250 into this new type of account. He told reporters about this amazing discovery, saying:
“Every morning, I went online.. and saw that the account grew!”
Justin was sick of living from paycheck to paycheck and started looking online for extra ways to make money while being home with the kids. After months of research falling into scam after scam he finally found a way to make at least $6,000 – $8,000 a month online. He claims: “This isn’t ‘get rich quick scam’ but everyone with $300 can double or triple it in a matter of hours, all it takes is a computer and a few clicks.”
He was absolutely stunned at his good fortune. Three months of growth and almost no effort on his part landed him more than $886,000. All from his initial deposit of less than $300.
And here’s the thing… He didn’t park his money in any risky foreign currency or off-shore bank. He didn’t buy stocks or anything else regular banks sold us in the past. In fact, what Justin did with his money was unlike anything else we’d ever seen in our 20-year career of financial reporting.
Immediately after reading his story, our CEO authorised a team of 15 reputed financial journalists to conduct a full research investigation on this new form of account.
What our Investigation found shocked us. And our guess is that the results will shock you too.
More than 300,000 Australian citizens have opened accounts, in nearly every city in the country. Now, these people see absolutely huge gains on their savings. One gentleman, Jim Kenna, who just put $1,000 into his account watched it grow to nearly $5 million. Or Gemma Samuelson, whose initial deposit blossomed into a small fortune, which she used to buy a stunning 3500ft villa in Queensland.
Experts agree that simply by transferring a small part of your money to these 100% free, safe, secure and completely private accounts you will at least earn more than 50 times what a typical savings account, stock or anything else will pay you.
How to know if this ‘underground’ account is right for you? Well, you don’t but if you have at least $250-$1000 on your savings account you have a moral obligation to your family – for your own well-being and that of your future generations – to at least look into one of these accounts.
We had a short Q&A with Daniel of
:Can you tell us how the
works?The software has been created using the most advanced programming the trading world has ever seen. The software is ahead of the markets by 0.01 seconds. And if you know anything about trading, you know this is a huge deal. This “time leap” makes the software the most consistent trading app on the planet.
How often does the
make a mistake?How much money can a regular user of the
make?Has any user actually lost his investment?
What improvements are you working on right now?
Individual Newsfeeds? Is it safe to give access to that?
How much will it cost to use the
automated system?What will be the effect of
in the future?
Putting The System To The Test
Naturally, you might be sceptical that something so simple could be so profitable and such a threat to the traditional banking system. That’s why we decided to put this system to the test – and our skeptics were completely blown away…
It wasn’t hard to find a volunteer. Our inbox flooded with requests and we finally picked Alex Collins as the lucky one. He is a 44-year-old father and lives in Melbourne together with his wife and children. As a sales assistant, he has always been able to pay the bills but was never able to take his family on a well deserved exotic holiday. And without having any computer skills, degrees or knowledge about how the financial markets work he would be our perfect fit for the test.
The
started making trades automatically in front of our eyes, winning most of them. We left it active for 23 hours and once we came back, Alex already had $1,965.37 in his account.Alex wasn’t convinced. To make sure this was all real and not just some phoney numbers on the screen he requested a withdrawal of $1,900 to his bank account. This was a fast and easy process as BinaryTilt is a thrusted broker. After 2 hours money was in his bank account! At this point Alex and we knew that it’s real.
We can’t wait for the software to go live. This will change lives of millions of people. Sometimes the things that seem too good to be true, are actually true.

THE OPPORTUNISTS A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 2000 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): **
As we all know, crime doesn't pay. But in THE OPPORTUNISTS it is the lack of crime that's infuriating. Directed on snooze control by Myles Connell, who also penned the underwritten script, the movie is s-l-o-w.  Although it's a short movie, five minutes of it feels like an eternity.
The severe pacing problems and the lack of character depth are a shame since the cast does their best within the confines of their poorly developed roles. Poignancy seems always just around the corner. The movie constantly appears ready to take off, but it is rarely able to start its engines. Like an old biplane stuck on a runway, the rickety old plane elicits our sympathy, but we quickly tire of watching it just taxi around.
The film's star, Christopher Walken, plays a lovable loser named Vic Kelly. An ex-con who has long since gone straight, Vic tries to make a living by repairing cars. Not exactly a successful small business owner, he bounces checks wherever he goes. Wait until tomorrow to cash them is his advice to those to whom he writes the checks. Maybe, by tomorrow, he'll have figured out a way to come up with the funds. Or, then again, maybe not.
One day, an unknown cousin from Ireland, Michael (Peter McDonald), comes for a visit. Penniless, Michael encourages Vic to pull off the "fool-proof" burglary scheme of two of Vic's friends, Pat Duffy (Donal Logue) and Jesus Del Toro (JosÚ Z˙˝iga).
Watching THE OPPORTUNISTS finally come into focus is like staring at a picture being downloaded over a slow modem link. Even if you admire the image, the sluggishness of the speed eventually becomes mind-numbing.
THE OPPORTUNISTS runs 1:29. It is rated R for language, but with the exception of a few mildly-delivered F-words, the film would be PG, not even PG-13. Unlike some recent questionable PG-13 movies, such as NUTTY PROFESSOR II, which would be inappropriate for those under 14, THE OPPORTUNISTS would be acceptable for most kids 10 and up.

The clear winner performance-wise here is simply to use an AffineTransform. It's fast. It uses very little memory. There's just one problem: it's ugly. Look at the thumbnails on the bottom of the demo: the transform-based thumbnail looks pixelated -- like it's un-antialiased.
Romain Guy described the problem: bilinear interpolation starts to fall apart when the scaling factor is less than 50%. (Which is often the case when you're creating thumbnails.) But at 50% it still looks good. In this example we're scaling to about 3%, so it looks pretty ragged.
Guy also proposed a solution: repeatedly scale the image by up to 50% until we reach our target size. So in this case where we're targeting 3%: we'd scale it once to 50%, then take 50% of that (25%), then 50% again (12.5%), etc. This was written up in his GraphicsUtilities
class, which was released under a LGPL license as part of his Filthy Rich Clients book. The downside to this approach is: it's the most expensive memory-wise.
Another possible approach is to use java.awt.Image.getScaledInstance(..)
. This is built-in to all Images
. The downside to this approach is: it's several times slower than all other options.
The com.pump.image.pixel.Scaling
class is my proposed alternative. This uses the PixelIterator
architecture. This may also be the only solution here that can scale an image as it is initially being read. (So we'd never load the megapixel image into memory at all: we only ever load the thumbnail.)
As of this writing the results this demo produces resemble:
Time:
| Image.getScaledInstance() | 676 ms |
| GraphicsUtilities | 138 ms |
| Transform | 4 ms |
| Scaling | 49 ms |
| Image.getScaledInstance() | 135.9 KB |
| GraphicsUtilities | 21.7 MB |
| Transform | 114.2 KB |
| Scaling | 205.5 KB |
