To help society's most vulnerable...
There are more than 100 million orphans in the world. Most of these children do not have access to proper food, clothing or shelter.
As little as $20 a month can feed, clothe, shelter, educate and medicate an orphan in some countries. To them, your sponsorship could mean the world.
The funds we raise are use to support orphanages in 30 countries across 5 continents, through partnerships with various registered NGO's.
Orphan Sponsorship Club is a youth-led interscholastic organization aiming to help orphans in third-world countries across the world. By reaching out to highschools accross the map, we hope to extend our impact and making a greater difference. Today, we are operational in 5 schools. Tomorrow, we'll be operational in hundreds.
Apply NowPartnered with University of Toronto's Orphan Sponsorship Program, we send the funds raised to where it is needed most. The charities that we are involved with includes Human Concern International, Islamic Relief and Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) Canada, all of which are registered Canadian charities.
There are many ways that you can support us.
By far, the best way you can support us. An annual commitment to support even one orphan can mean the world.
Sponsor one of our fundraisers, and let us double your contribution. It does not have to be much.
We would love to hear how you feel and how we can better our impact. We welcome support and criticism.
Your support does not need to be financial. Tell a friend. Like, follow or share us through social media.


We take only the best salmon, grind them up whole, and stick them in our cookie batter. But you wouldn't know that. Our recipe is so amazing you wouldn't even guess that we throw the bones and organs into the batter.
Not really. Could you imagine if we actually did that?
We actually use only the best fillets from fresh salmon expertly prepared by our master chefs. We take our time and make sure no bones nor organs are included when we grind the fillets into our batter.


module MonitorMixin
In concurrent programming, a monitor is an object or module intended to be used safely by more than one thread. The defining characteristic of a monitor is that its methods are executed with mutual exclusion. That is, at each point in time, at most one thread may be executing any of its methods. This mutual exclusion greatly simplifies reasoning about the implementation of monitors compared to reasoning about parallel code that updates a data structure.
You can read more about the general principles on the Wikipedia page for Monitors
Examples¶ ↑
Simple object.extend¶ ↑
require 'monitor.rb' buf = [] buf.extend(MonitorMixin) empty_cond = buf.new_cond # consumer Thread.start do loop do buf.synchronize do empty_cond.wait_while { buf.empty? } print buf.shift end end end # producer while line = ARGF.gets buf.synchronize do buf.push(line) empty_cond.signal end end
The consumer thread waits for the producer thread to push a line to buf
while buf.empty?
. The producer thread (main thread) reads a
line from ARGF and pushes it into buf then calls
empty_cond.signal
to notify the consumer thread of new data.
Simple Class include¶ ↑
require 'monitor' class SynchronizedArray < Array include MonitorMixin def initialize(*args) super(*args) end alias :old_shift :shift alias :old_unshift :unshift def shift(n=1) self.synchronize do self.old_shift(n) end end def unshift(item) self.synchronize do self.old_unshift(item) end end # other methods ... end
SynchronizedArray
implements an Array with synchronized access
to items. This Class is implemented as subclass of
Array which includes the MonitorMixin
module.
Public Class Methods
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 159 def self.extend_object(obj) super(obj) obj.__send__(:mon_initialize) end
Use extend MonitorMixin
or include MonitorMixin
instead of this constructor. Have look at the examples above to understand
how to use this module.
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 233 def initialize(*args) super mon_initialize end
Public Instance Methods
Enters exclusive section.
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 184 def mon_enter if @mon_owner != Thread.current @mon_mutex.lock @mon_owner = Thread.current @mon_count = 0 end @mon_count += 1 end
Leaves exclusive section.
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 196 def mon_exit mon_check_owner @mon_count -=1 if @mon_count == 0 @mon_owner = nil @mon_mutex.unlock end end
Enters exclusive section and executes the block. Leaves the exclusive
section automatically when the block exits. See example under
MonitorMixin
.
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 210 def mon_synchronize mon_enter begin yield ensure mon_exit end end
Attempts to enter exclusive section. Returns false
if lock
fails.
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 167 def mon_try_enter if @mon_owner != Thread.current unless @mon_mutex.try_lock return false end @mon_owner = Thread.current @mon_count = 0 end @mon_count += 1 return true end
Creates a new MonitorMixin::ConditionVariable associated with the receiver.
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 224 def new_cond return ConditionVariable.new(self) end
Private Instance Methods
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 246 def mon_check_owner if @mon_owner != Thread.current raise ThreadError, "current thread not owner" end end
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 252 def mon_enter_for_cond(count) @mon_owner = Thread.current @mon_count = count end
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 257 def mon_exit_for_cond count = @mon_count @mon_owner = nil @mon_count = 0 return count end
Initializes the MonitorMixin after being included in a class or when an object has been extended with the MonitorMixin
# File lib/monitor.rb, line 240 def mon_initialize @mon_owner = nil @mon_count = 0 @mon_mutex = Thread::Mutex.new end


Checking Infinispan cluster health and Kubernetes/OpenShift
Modern applications and microservices often need to expose their health status. A common example is Spring Actuator but there are also many different ways of doing that.
Starting from Infinispan 9.0.0.Beta2 we introduced the HealthCheck API. It is accessible in both Embedded and Client/Server mode.
Cluster Health and Embedded Mode
The HealthCheck API might be obtained directly from EmbeddedCacheManager and it looks like this:
The nice thing about the API is that it is exposed in JMX by default:
More information about using HealthCheck API in Embedded Mode might be found here:
Cluster Health and Server Mode
Since Infinispan is based on Wildfly, we decided to use CLI as well as built-in Management REST interface.
Here’s an example of checking the status of a running server:
Querying the HealthCheck API using the Management REST is also very simple:
Note that for the REST endpoint, you have to use proper credentials.
More information about the HealthCheckA API in Server Mode might be found here:
Cluster Health and Kubernetes/OpenShift
Monitoring cluster health is crucial for Clouds Platforms such as Kubernetes and OpenShift. Those Clouds use a concept of immutable Pods. This means that every time you need change anything in your application (changing configuration for the instance), you need to replace the old instances with new ones. There are several ways of doing that but we highly recommend using Rolling Updates. We also recommend to tune the configuration and instruct Kubernetes/OpenShift to replace Pods one by one (I will show you an example in a moment).
Our goal is to configure Kubernetes/OpenShift in such a way, that each time a new Pod is joining or leaving the cluster a State Transfer is triggered. When data is being transferred between the nodes, the Readiness Probe needs to report failures and prevent Kubernetes/OpenShift from doing progress in Rolling Update procedure. Once the cluster is back in stable state, Kubernetes/OpenShift can replace another node. This process loops until all nodes are replaced.
Luckily, we introduced two scripts in our Docker image, which can be used out of the box for Liveness and Readiness Probes:
At this point we are ready to put all the things together and assemble DeploymentConfig:
Interesting parts of the configuration:
-
lines 13 and 14: We allocate additional capacity for the Rolling Update and allow one Pod to be down. This ensures Kubernetes/OpenShift replaces nodes one by one.
-
line 44: Sometimes shutting a Pod down takes a little while. It is always better to wait until it terminates gracefully than taking the risk of losing data.
-
lines 45 - 53: The Liveness Probe definition. Note that when a node is transferring the data it might highly occupied. It is wise to set higher value of 'failureThreshold'.
-
lines 54 - 62: The same rule as the above. The bigger the cluster is, the higher the value of 'successThreshold' as well as 'failureThreshold'.

Actions, resources, and condition keys for Amazon MemoryDB
Amazon MemoryDB (service prefix:
memorydb
) provides the following service-specific resources, actions, and condition context keys for use in IAM permission policies.

Learn how to secure this service and its resources by using IAM permission policies.
Topics
Actions defined by Amazon MemoryDB
You can specify the following actions in the
Action
element of an IAM policy statement. Use policies to grant permissions to perform an operation in AWS. When you use an action in a policy, you usually allow or deny access to the API operation or CLI command with the same name. However, in some cases, a single action controls access to more than one operation. Alternatively, some operations require several different actions.
The
Resource types
column of the Actions table indicates whether each action supports resource-level permissions. If there is no value for this column, you must specify all resources ("*") to which the policy applies in the
Resource
element of your policy statement. If the column includes a resource type, then you can specify an ARN of that type in a statement with that action. If the action has one or more required resources, the caller must have permission to use the action with those resources. Required resources are indicated in the table with an asterisk (*). If you limit resource access with the
Resource
element in an IAM policy, you must include an ARN or pattern for each required resource type. Some actions support multiple resource types. If the resource type is optional (not indicated as required), then you can choose to use one of the optional resource types.
The
Condition keys
column of the Actions table includes keys that you can specify in a policy statement's
Condition
element. For more information on the condition keys that are associated with resources for the service, see the
Condition keys
column of the Resource types table.
For details about the columns in the following table, see Actions table .
Note
When you create a MemoryDB for Redis policy in IAM you must use the "*" wildcard character for the Resource block. For information about using the following MemoryDB for Redis API actions in an IAM policy, see MemoryDB Actions and IAM .

Fundamentals
Color Theory
Map-making has historically been both a science and an art. For visualizing scientific data on maps, we now have new technologies that make it easy to create beautiful data visualizations.
Using the principles of art and design, we can take data and display it on the map as easily understandable information that the general public can relate to.
Whether your goals are to publish, share your research, or reach a wider audience, a good map design will make your data more powerful.
In practicing cartography, it is important to remember that often, the best design is rooted in simplicity. The main focus should be the information.
Elements of effective cartography
To help your audience understand what you’re trying to convey, the following elements can be included with your map.
- Legend - The most important element for understanding the data, the legend should concisely explain what is on the map.
- Labels - Labels can help your audience identify features on the map like cities, roads, and lakes, or they can serve to point out important areas.
- Attribution - An attribution is often necessary when using geographic information, whether it be for the data itself, the map that is underneath the data, or the design elements included.
- Scale - Although scale is often left out of zoomable web maps, it is an important element for static maps. The scale bar can be simple and near the bottom of your map.
- North arrow - The classic arrow that points north!
Color
Color can add meaning and beauty to your data. To get inspired, think about what different colors evoke. Red can express heat or urgency, while blue might be calming and cool.
If you are unsure of which colors to use, you can use ColorBrewer 2.0. Besides providing excellent color schemes, it considers colorblindness which should always be an important factor when selecting color schemes.
The type of color scheme you use depends on the nature of your data. We can take a look at the options from ColorBrewer.
Sequential Data For sequential data, a monochromatic color scheme is a good choice. In this type of scheme you have just one hue, and vary the lightness. Your colors may go from light blue to dark blue, for example. This scheme is ideal for a choropleth map.
ColorBrewer also provides color schemes for sequential data with related hues that vary in lightness. These are harder to create on your own, since you don’t want to use hues that are very different from one another.
Don’t hesitate to try a simple greyscale scheme ranging from white to black. Simple is often better, after all.
Diverging Data Now you can have two main hues! These should contrast well with each other, and in between them you can use a neutral color, like white. As you go from the neutral middle towards the extremes, you can increase the saturation or darkness of your two colors.
Qualitative Data For this type of data, you don’t want your hues to be related to each other, because each color is just a category, without representing any order or degree in your data.
A classic example of this type of color scheme is on geologic maps, where each color is a different rock unit.
Tools like paletton.com are simply a color wheel. Paletton.com has options such as monochromatic, adjacent colors, triad, and tetrad that pick colors based on a single color selection. These are meant for web designing but can be useful for maps, as well.
Typography
Most maps have text for the title, legends, and labels. The choice of typefaces (generally referred to as fonts) for these elements can add to the overall feel of your map. It is generally recognized that different typefaces convey personalities. Some are more serious, and others are playful. For research maps, you can use a simple and formal typeface, similar to what you might choose for an article or other text publication.
The most important aspect of text on maps is its legibility. The easier to read, the better.
What typeface options are there? The main distinction is Serif versus Sans-Serif. Serif typefaces have little decorators at the tips of letters, while Sans-Serif typefaces do not. A Sans-serif typeface is good for numbers, small text on your map, and also for maps on the web. Serif typefaces can be good for printed maps, titles, and larger text. Traditionally, maps with many labels use a pair of typefaces - one serif and one sans-serif.
Sometimes you may have to take kerning (the spacing between letters) into consideration.
Try exploring combinations on TypeBrewer. Note: this site is not related to ColorBrewer.
Styling Data
So what is CSS? It stands for Cascading Style Sheets. The key part of that is ‘Style’. CSS is used to make websites look nice - the css file governs colors, sizes, and fonts.
CartoCSS has the same syntax as regular CSS. First you select the element that you will be applying styles to. For example, you could choose ‘Map’ for the entire map. Within curly brackets, you put all your properties.
One the left you put the name of the property you want to change (for example, background-color). Then comes a colon, and on the right the value for that property. You should end your lines with a semicolon.
element
{
propertyName: propertyValue;
}
On the right of your new map project you can see a space with some css code already there. This is what goes in your style file when you save your project. To see the changes that you make here, remember to click ‘Save’ at the top right.

The Navigator (1924)
Grade: 67
"The Navigator" is a silent film starring Buster Keaton. Keaton, as usual, plays an ordinary man who must learn to perform extraordinary feats in order to win his love interest.
Keaton plans his honeymoon, buying tickets for an ocean cruise. However, the plans are spoiled when his girlfriend refuses to marry him. Keaton goes on the cruise anyway. A plot contrivance has Keaton and his girlfriend alone on the ship, which has been set adrift by foreign agents. Keaton must perform various heroic actions, especially to save the ship from a cannibal tribe.
Keaton has a flair for slapstick. There is a scene where he attempts to cook breakfast. He does everything wrong, with comic results. Keaton dons a scuba suit to repair the ship. The resulting underwater photography must have been innovative at the time.
With the emphasis on slapstick, the stunts that are so spectacular in subsequent Keaton films such as "Sherlock, Jr." and "The General" are largely absent here. The battle with the cannibals is impressive, however, with good panning shots of the island, the ship, and the cannibals rowing towards it.
I have a few minor complaints about the film. Keaton's character makes an unlikely change from klutz to hero. The word "formula" also comes to mind, as so many Keaton films have him playing a clueless man trying to win a love interest. Only the setting is different from "College", "Seven Chances", or "Sherlock, Jr."

Renewable energies are progressing quickly with falling costs
The share of renewable energy sources (RES, including hydropower) within the global power generation mix, which has been rising quickly since the end of the 2000’s, grew by nearly 1 percentage point in 2017, to almost 25%. Wind and solar generation has gained momentum, encouraged by ambitious climate policies in the European Union, the United States, China, India, Japan and Australia, and by the dramatic fall in solar and wind development costs over recent years, enabling developing countries to expand their renewable capacities. Solar was responsible of 20% of the additional power generation in 2017 and wind 30%. Renewables now cover 1/3 of the power mix in Europe, 1/4 in China and 1/6 in the United States, India and Japan.
In the European Union, the share of renewables remained stable in 2017, as the strong increase in renewable generation in Germany and the UK was offset by adverse hydraulic conditions in southern Europe (France, Italy, Spain).

Your Current Weather
75 (I wish)


With our primary goal to give Mr. Bland his own portrait, we found a portrait of a previous headmaster, William Lusk, to stylize a picture of Mr. Bland in the Chapel that somewhat mimicked the style portrait. The two images below are what we trained initially:
The result was blurred and no features were well defined. In addition, the color was not preserved very well. The mahogany brown background of the content image was dulled down. And none of Mr. Bland’s facial features were retained. This style transfer was not meeting any of our goals, and this poor result was likely due, in part, to the lack of “style” of the initial painting itself. It has only a basic background, and the portrait itself is lifelike; no distinct artists’ style could be drawn. The result can be seen below:
In addition to the problem with the style, the content was part of the problem. The image, perhaps due to its lack of contrast and light coloring, even with a distinct style like Starry Night, one of the most common style transfer styles, still produced a non-defined content transfer at 25 thousand iterations:
So, to try something new for the goal of our desired result, we tried a new content and a new style. We abandoned the Lusk portrait and the chapel picture and tried a picture of Mr. Bland in the classroom as it had brighter lighting. We thought the dark lighting and dark background that also matched the dark background of the style might have hindered the appropriate color-preserved style transfer. So we decided, sans another portrait of a headmaster, to try another Milton legend, and perhaps its most famous, T.S. Eliot. These photos were the two new style and then content images, respectively:
The results of this style transfer were much more promising. Given that the program runs 100 iterations in about one minute, we tried various iteration numbers with a GeForce 1060 GPU. The results were below, from left-to-right top-to-bottom, at 100, 500, 1000, 25000 iterations -- all with color preserved. At 25,000 iterations, the shadows start to become prevalent again and the facial structure becomes clearer. These shadows make the face look darker, and thus indicates that the color is not being preserved as well. And when looking at the green on the wall, the more iterations seemed to dilute the preservation of color -- while the features of the face became more defined.
At 25,000 iterations without color preservation, the result, as a whole, was darker. The green in the background was darkened and the shadowing on Mr. Bland’s face was more pronounced, and, thus, his features are less defined.
As a control, to make sure the color preservation of this repo was working distinctly and accurately, we tested the same content image with Starry Night -- with and without color preservation. The sans-color-preserved result had the starry blue across the image, while the color-preserved result had the same style across the image with color distinctly preserved (at 1000 iterations):

ApolloDeveloperKit
Apollo Client Devtools bridge for Apollo iOS.
Overview
ApolloDeveloperKit is an iOS / macOS library which works as a bridge between Apollo iOS client and Apollo Client Developer tools.
This library adds an ability to watch the sent queries or mutations simultaneously, and also has the feature to request arbitrary operations from embedded GraphiQL console.
Screenshots
Prerequisites
- Xcode
>= 12.0
- Apollo iOS
>= 0.34.0
,< 0.38.0
- Apollo Client Devtools
Installation
CocoaPods
Add the following lines to your Podfile.
pod 'Apollo'
pod 'ApolloDeveloperKit', '~> 0.15.0', configurations: ['Debug']
Then run pod install
.
Carthage
Add the following lines to your Cartfile.
github "apollographql/apollo-ios"
github "manicmaniac/ApolloDeveloperKit"
Then run carthage update --platform iOS
or carthage update --platform Mac
.
Swift Package Manager
Add https://github.com/manicmaniac/ApolloDeveloperKit
to your dependencies.
Since Xcode 12 has only limited support for resources installed via Swift Package Manager, I recommend to use Xcode 12.4 or newer for Swift Package Manager users.
Setup
First, in order to hook Apollo’s cache and network layer, you need to use DebuggableNetworkTransport
and DebuggableInMemoryNormalizedCache
instead of usual ones.
let networkTransport = DebuggableNetworkTransport(networkTransport: HTTPNetworkTransport(url: url))
let cache = DebuggableInMemoryNormalizedCache()
Second, instantiate ApolloStore
and ApolloClient
with debuggable ingredients.
let store = ApolloStore(cache: cache)
let client = ApolloClient(networkTransport: networkTransport: store: store)
Finally, create ApolloDebugServer
and run.
let debugServer = ApolloDebugServer(cache: cache, networkTransport: networkTransport)
self.debugServer = debugServer // Note: you need to retain debugServer's reference
debugServer.start(port: 8081)
Full example:
import Apollo
import ApolloDeveloperKit
import UIKit
@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {
var window: UIWindow?
private var client: ApolloClient!
private var debugServer: ApolloDebugServer?
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
let url = URL(string: "https://example.com/graphql")!
#if DEBUG
let networkTransport = DebuggableNetworkTransport(networkTransport: HTTPNetworkTransport(url: url))
let cache = DebuggableNormalizedCache(cache: InMemoryNormalizedCache())
let store = ApolloStore(cache: cache)
client = ApolloClient(networkTransport: networkTransport, store: store)
debugServer = ApolloDebugServer(networkTransport: networkTransport, cache: cache)
do {
try debugServer.start(port: 8081)
} catch let error {
print(error)
}
#else
client = ApolloClient(url: url)
#endif
return true
}
}
Usage
If you don’t have Apollo Client Developer Tools, install it before proceeding the following steps.
- Launch your app on your device or simulator.
- Open your browser and jump to the server’s URL (in case your app runs the above example on a simulator, the URL would be
http://localhost:8081
).- You will see
ApolloDebugServer is running!
on your browser’s tab. - If not, make sure the server runs and the specified URL is correct.
- On a real device, the host would be other than
localhost
but you can check what it is withApolloDebugServer.serverURL
.
- You will see
- Open developer tools.
- Select
Apollo
tab.- You will see tabs like
GraphiQL
,Queries
,Mutations
on the left pane. - If not, reload the tab and wait until it’s connected again.
- You will see tabs like
Excluding ApolloDeveloperKit from Release (App Store) Builds
All instructions in this section are written based on Flipboard/FLEX’s way.
Since ApolloDeveloperKit is originally designed for debug use only, it should not be exposed to end-users.
Fortunately, it is easy to exclude ApolloDeveloperKit framework from Release builds. The strategies differ depending on how you integrated it in your project, and are described below.
Please make sure your code is properly excluding ApolloDeveloperKit with #if DEBUG
statements before starting these instructions.
Otherwise it will be linked to your app unexpectedly.
See Example/AppDelegate.swift
to see how to do it.
For CocoaPods users
CocoaPods automatically excludes ApolloDeveloperKit from release builds if you only specify the Debug configuration for CocoaPods in your Podfile.
For Carthage users
- Do NOT add
ApolloDeveloperKit.framework
to the embedded binaries of your target, as it would otherwise be included in all builds (therefore also in release ones). - Instead, add
$(PROJECT_DIR)/Carthage/Build/iOS
or$(PROJECT_DIR)/Carthage/Build/Mac
to your target Framework Search Paths (this setting might already be present if you already included other frameworks with Carthage). This makes it possible to import the ApolloDeveloperKit framework from your source files. It does not harm if this setting is added for all configurations, but it should at least be added for the debug one. - Add a Run Script Phase to your target (inserting it alter the existing
Link Binary with Libraries
phase, for example), and which will embedApolloDeveloperKit.framework
in debug builds only:
if [ "$CONFIGURATION" = Debug ]; then
/usr/local/bin/carthage copy-frameworks
fi
Finally, add $(SRCROOT)/Carthage/Build/iOS/ApolloDeveloperKit.framework
or $(SRCROOT)/Carthage/Build/Mac/ApolloDeveloperKit.framework
as input file of this script phase.
For users those who copy all the source files to the project manually
Now there’s no easy way but you can exclude ApolloDeveloperKit by setting user defined build variable named EXCLUDED_SOURCE_FILE_NAMES
.
The value for the variable is a space-separated list of each filenames in ApolloDeveloperKit.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Console Redirection
ApolloDeveloperKit
supports console redirection.
When it is enabled, all logs written in stdout (usually written with print()
) and stderr (written with NSLog()
) are redirected to the web browser’s console as well.
This feature is disabled by default so you may want to enable it explicitly.
debugServer = ApolloDebugServer(networkTransport: networkTransport, cache: cache)
debugServer.enableConsoleRedirection = true
Then open the console in your browser’s developer tools. You will see logs in your iPhone or simulator.
In the browser console, logs written in stdout are colored in blue-green and stderr are orange so that you can distinguish them from ordinary browser logs.
Development
API Documentation
Auto-generated API documentation is here.
Run Example App
Since Example app is slightly modified version of apollographql/frontpage-ios-app, you need to start apollographql/frontpage-server before running the app.
- Open Xcode and select ApolloDeveloperKitExample scheme.
- Run and open
http://localhost:8081
in your browser.

Why Base64 encoding for icon fonts is a good idea.
Some browsers, like certain versions of Firefox, have cross-domain policy issues that can keep icon fonts from working. Data URI is a standard that allows us to Base64 encode file like images and fonts and include them inline in your styles and html. By adding Base64 encoded versions of your fonts to your @font-face declarations you can avoid those cross-domain issues and provide a local fallback for your web fonts.
Most online font generators like Font Squirrel have a Base64 option that you can choose when generating web fonts. If you are creating your own you could use one of the many online services that provide base 64 encoding. I'm partial to the encoder found at Mobilefish as it does a nice job of encoding fonts.

--- layout: post title: How to export Confluence pages containing equations to PDF date: 2012-02-20 12:15:25.000000000 +00:00 type: post published: true status: publish categories: [] tags: [] meta: tmac_last_id: '618797362715062272' _edit_last: '1' _syntaxhighlighter_encoded: '1' author: David Simpson excerpt_separator: ---
Recently I was helping a chemistry lecturer with some of her course notes. She authors her course notes in Confluence, then uses the "Export to PDF" functionality to create versions of her notes for distribution to the course participants. This workflow was suiting her nicely until she tried to export her pages.
The course involves mathematics, so she was using the ASCIIMath macro -- the newly released Confluence LaTeX plugin would likely be preferable for Confluence 4.x. This macro uses client side JavaScript to render the correct formula to the page.
The ASCIIMath and Confluence LaTeX plugins both do a good job of client side rendering, but this is no good for printing to PDF. On export to PDF, ASCIIMath simply prints the raw LaTeX syntax. For our purposes, this was not acceptable.
The lecturer requested a new macro with the same or similar syntax to the ASCIIMath macro (science academics are often LaTeX geeks), but which successfully exports to PDF. The obvious choice here would be to extend the current ASCIIMath macro with the relevant functionality. In theory, this would fix the lecturer's problem without her having to update any content. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to do this.
Instead, I quickly hacked together a user macro which fits the requirements. Here it is:
## Macro Name: equation
## Macro Title: Equation
## Categories: Confluence Content, Formatting
## Visibility: Visible to all users in the Macro Browser
## Macro has a body: Y
## Body processing: Render HTML
## Output: HTML
## Icon URL: http://png.findicons.com/files/icons/2394/stroke_text/72/equation.png
##
## Developed by: David Simpson<EMAIL_ADDRESS>## Date created: 2012-02-19 v1.0.1
## Installed by: Your Name Goes Here
##
## A very light-weight replacement for the {math} macro.
## It is syntactically more verbose, but should give exactly the same results across browsers and allow for export to PDF.
## Test out your syntax here:
## http://www.forkosh.com/source_mathtex.html#latexmarkup
##
## Usage {equation}x^2{equation}
##
## 1. Raw URL encode the plus signs in the body (this is revisited in step 4.)
#set( $body = $body.replace("+", "%2B") )
##
## 2. URL encode the body (spaces are converted to "+" rather than "%20")
#set( $body = $generalUtil.urlEncode($body) )
##
## 3. Encode the spaces as %20
#set( $body = $body.replace("+","%20") )
##
## 4. Fix double encoding on plus signs
#set( $body = $body.replace("%252B","%2B") )
##
##
## IMPORTANT: After testing, replace "http://www.forkosh.com/mathtex.cgi" belowwith the location of your local installation
##
<img src="http://www.forkosh.com/mathtex.cgi?gammacorrection{1.25}%20$body">
The user macro above relies on mathTeX and which of course relies on LaTeX. I very much recommend that you install both of these locally. Do not piggy back off of John Forkosh Associates, Inc. installation.
The examples below use wiki markup (remember that?) to add the equation to the page. For Confluence 4.x users, you can either use insert wiki markup and paste each example into your page as is or remove the {equation} prefix & suffix.
Usage:
{equation}x^2{equation}
Output:
Usage:
{equation}f(x)=intlimits_{-infty}^x~e^{-t^2}dt{equation}
Output:
Usage:
{equation}frac{{d}}{{left.{d}{x}right.}}{f{{left({x}right)}}}=lim_{{{h}to{0}}}frac{{{f{{left({x}+{h}right)}}}-{f{{left({x}right)}}}}}{{h}}{equation}
Output:
A somewhat more complex example, taken from this page. This time, we get a diagram rather than just an equation.
Usage:

Output:
This user macro is useful for any technical author with Confluence pages containing equations who needs to export pages to PDF. It will also help users who utilise the Scroll Wiki Exporter range of products to publish their content. This user macro is dependent on an external installation of mathTeX which in turn requires LaTeX.
The code (or at least some of the thinking) behind this user macro would make an excellent fail-back/export solution to bundle with the Confluence LaTeX plugin. I think I'll open a JIRA...

Apache™ FOP Design: Images
Introduction
Images may only be needed to be loaded when the image is rendered to the
output or to find the dimensions.
An image url may be invalid, this can be costly to find out so we need to
keep a list of invalid image urls.
We have a number of different caching schemes that are possible.
All images are referred to using the url given in the XSL:FO after removing "url('')" wrapping. This does not include any sort of resolving such as relative -> absolute. The external graphic in the FO Tree and the image area in the Area Tree only have the url as a reference. The images are handled through a static interface in ImageFactory.
Threading
In a single threaded case with one document the image should be released as soon as the renderer caches it. If there are multiple documents then the images could be held in a weak cache in case another document needs to load the same image.
In a multi threaded case many threads could be attempting to get the same image. We need to make sure an image will only be loaded once at a particular time. Once a particular document is finished then we can move all the images to a common weak cache.
Caches
LRU
All images are in a common cache regardless of context. To limit the size of the cache the LRU image is removed to keep the amount of memory used low. Each image can supply the amount of data held in memory.
Context
Images are cached according to the context, using the FOUserAgent as a key. Once the context is finished the images are added to a common weak hashmap so that other contexts can load these images or the data will be garbage collected if required.
If images are to be used commonly then we cannot dispose of data in the FopImage when cached by the renderer. Also if different contexts have different base directories for resolving relative url's then the loading and caching must be separate. We can have a cache that shares images among all contexts or only loads an image for a context.
The cache uses an image loader so that it can synchronize the image loading on an image by image basis. Finding and adding an image loader to the cache is also synchronized to prevent thread problems.
Invalid Images
If an image cannot be loaded for some reason, for example the url is
invalid or the image data is corrupt or an unknown type. Then it should
only attempt to load the image once. All other attempts to get the image
should return null so that it can be easily handled.
This will prevent any extra processing or waiting.
Reading
Once a stream is opened for the image url then a set of image readers is used to determine what type of image it is. The reader can peek at the image header or if necessary load the image. The reader can also get the image size at this stage. The reader then can provide the mime type to create the image object to load the rest of the information.
Data
The data usually need for an image is the size and either a bitmap or the original data. Images such as jpeg and eps can be embedded into the document with the original data. SVG images are converted into a DOM which needs to be rendered to the PDF. Other images such as gif, tiff etc. are converted into a bitmap. Data is loaded by the FopImage by calling load(type) where type is the type of data to load.
Rendering
Different renderers need to have the information in different forms.
- original data
- JPG, EPS
- bitmap
- gif, tiff, bmp, png
- other
- SVG
PS
- bitmap
- JPG, gif, tiff, bmp, png
- other
- SVG
awt
- bitmap
- JPG, gif, tiff, bmp, png
- other
- SVG
The renderer uses the url to retrieve the image from the ImageFactory and then load the required data depending on the image mime type. If the renderer can insert the image into the document and use that data for all future references of the same image then it can cache the reference in the renderer and the image can be released from the image cache.

Susan Granger's review of "THE IRON GIANT" (Warner Bros.)
The summer's best surprise is Brad Bird's fun-filled, superbly crafted animated family film. Based on Ted Hughes' children's book, "The Iron Man," the concept combines the sensitivity of Steven Spielberg's "E.T." with a gleeful contemporary sensibility. Set in peaceful, picturesque Rockwell, Maine, in 1957 - at the time of the Russian satellite Sputnik - the story revolves around the friendship of a nine year-old boy, Hogarth Hughes (voiced by Eli Marienthal), and a gigantic robot who fell into the ocean from outer space. They meet one night when his single mother (voiced by Jennifer Aniston) is working late and Hogarth hears a noise outside. Curious, he follows a trail of broken fences and downed trees into the woods where he finds a 50' tall metal monster tangled in electrical wires. Feeling sorry for the enormous beast, he turns the power off, thus saving its life. Knowing his mother's aversion to pets, he tries to keep the gentle Iron Giant (voiced by Vin Diesel) hidden but the creature's voracious hunger for metal (cars, trucks, TV antennas, railroad tracks) arouses the suspicions of a sneaky, trigger-happy Government Agent (voiced by Christopher McDonald). Hogarth's only ally as the precarious situation escalates is a cool beatnik scrap-metal dealer/artist (voiced by Harry Connick Jr.) who tells him, "You are who you choose to be." That's a key phrase in the heartfelt, honest, intelligent script, which also works as a political allegory without getting heavy-handed, teaching lessons about tolerance and sacrifice. And Michael Kamen's musical score is subtle yet evocative. On the Granger Movie Gauge of 1 to 10, "The Iron Giant" is a charming, whimsical, magical 10. It's absolutely impossible not to love "The Iron Giant" - a definite MUST SEE!

I am a human and programmer. I like to read books, take photos and ride bikes in the hills near my house. I work at Instagram as a software engineer.
You can email me if you so desire. I'm happy to talk about education, programming languages, cycling, and more.
That's probably an understatement. Here are some of my favorite projects:
Many other class projects, while delightful, cannot be published due to university policy.
It's not very interesting just yet. Things are
happening.

of mandatory and optional elements. Before getting started, here are some things to know.


You attempt to beguile a beast that you can see within range. It must succeed on a W isdom saving throw or be charmed by you for the duration. If you or creatures that are friendly to you are fighting it, it has advantage on the saving throw.
While the beast is charmed, you have a telepathic link with it as long as the two of you are on the same plane of existence. You can use this telepathic link to issue commands to the creature while you are conscious (no action required), which it does its best to obey. You can specify a simple and general course of action, such as “Attack that creature,” “Run over there,” or “Fetch that object.” If the creature completes the order and doesn't receive further direction from you, it defends and preserves itself to the best of its ability.
You can u se your action to take total and precise control of the target. Until the end of your next turn, the creature takes only the actions you choose, and doesn't do anything that you don't allow it to do. During this time, you can also cause the creature to use a reaction, but this requires you to use your own reaction as well.
Each time the target takes damage, it makes a new Wisdom saving throw against the spell. If the saving throw succeeds, the spell ends.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell with a 5th-level spell slot, the duration is concentration, up to 10 minutes. When you use a 6th-level spell slot, the duration is concentration, up to 1 hour. When you use a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the duration is concentration, up to 8 hours.

The Ruwanwelisaya is a stupa, situated in Anuradhapura Srilanka. It is sacred to Buddhists all over the world. This was built by King Dutugamunu in B.C. It is also known as Mahaseya,swaramali chithya and Rathnamali seya. Ruwanwelisaya is one of the 8 sacred places in the city of Anuradhapura. The original stupa has been about 180 feet in height It was a ruin in the 19th century and had been expanded and renovated by many kings .it was renovated in the early 20th century.The final crowning of the stupa took place on 17 June 1940. It is of one of th e world's tallest monuments, with the hight of 338 ft and the circumference of951 ft.
Magul maha viharas an ancient Buddhist temple situated in Lahugala, was built by King Kawanthissa in the 2nd Century BC. This is the place where the king married the pricecess Vihara Maha Devi. The foundations of the “Magul maduwa” where the wedding ceremony took place in the vihara premises.Land of the vihara comlex is about 10,000 acres,ruins of a palace, moonstone , monastery, bo-maluwa, stupas, pond . are found scattered all over. These ruins are surrounded by the forests of the Lahugala National Park, which is an important habitat for animals such as elephants, sambars, deers, leopards and many endemic birds of Sri Lanka. This Vihara ra had been renovated by several kings There was about 2,000 monks inhabited the complex at some stage in history, which is evident to the largeness of the ancient temple. This is a histologically protected monument of the country.
This is an ancient Buddhist monastery with history of more than 2200 years, Located in 18 km east from Katharagama, . Sithulpawwa is is also called Chiththala Pabbatha", which means the hill of the quiet mind. This ancient monastery with a history over 2200 years was a place of worship for devotees as well as a center of Buddhist education for Buddhist monks. This was built by King Kawanthissa.Thousands of Arhath bhikkus lived at this monastery. Large number of stupas.ruins of Buddha statues ,Bodhisathwstatues,,imege house and cave temples spred throughout land. Paintings of this monastery are belong to Anuradhapura era and the ruins of stone Buddha images, Awalokeswara Bodhisattva images, Image Houses, Circular Relic Houses are spread throughout the monastery premises. Apart from the main Sithulpawwa stupa there is another hill called the ‘Small Sithulpawwa . This contains similar stupa and buildings. Stupas have been built on peaks of this rocky mountain range .


The native mechanism for this system is the service bundle.
One can, however, import systemd unit files.
The system-control convert-systemd-units
command takes systemd unit files and converts them to a service bundle directory.
This conversion program allows software packagers to quickly construct a service bundle if they already have systemd unit files for a service.
(It also allows system administrators to do this in the case that software packagers have not.)
Five kinds of unit can be converted:
a target unit with no associated service, that simply aggregates other services and targets, or that operates as a milestone;
a simple service unit;
a templatized service unit;
a socket unit that invokes a simple service unit of the same name;
a socket unit that invokes a templatized service unit of the same name.
There are a few restrictions (summarized here, for details, see the convert-systemd-units
manual):
The service must be a forking, oneshot, dbus, or simple service; not a notify service.
The socket must be a TCP, UDP, local-domain stream, local-domain datagram, local-domain sequential-packet, FIFO, or netlink datagram socket. Other socket types are not convertible, although there's nothing in principle stopping UCSPI tools and conventions for them from being invented and used.
Some esoteric options are not convertible. Nor are some Linux-kernel-only options.
These cover a large number of unit files, in practice.
convert-systemd-units
breaks down the unit files and builds run
, start
, and service
scripts that use the various utility programs to set up a service's run-time environment in the way specified by the unit files.
(This is only a subset of what a run
script can actually do.)
A User=
directive becomes a setuidgid
command, for example.
Import can operate in either "ideal" mode or "quirks" mode.
Quirks mode deals with several quirks of systemd and is the mode to use when taking existing unit files supplied with other packages.
See the convert-systemd-units
manual for details.

What is E-Learning?
Quite simply, e-learning is electronic learning, and typically this means using a computer to deliver part, or all of a course whether it's in a school, part of your mandatory business training or a full distance learning course.
In the early days it received a bad press, as many people thought bringing computers into the classroom would remove that human element that some learners need, but as time has progressed technology has developed, and now we embrace smartphones and tablets in the classroom and office, as well as using a wealth of interactive designs that makes distance learning not only engaging for the users, but valuable as a lesson delivery medium.
Building partnerships with quality training providers, and combining this with a dedicated experienced technical team and support staff, Virtual College provides the perfect blended learning environment, offering anyone the chance to take their online training to the next level.

Our analysis shows marked predicted increases in temperature variability in tropical land regions including many of the world’s poorer countries, with the Amazon being a particular hotspot of concern. These hotspots result mainly from soil drying in the Southern Hemisphere and from increased atmospheric variability in the subtropics of the Northern Hemisphere. Temperature variability is projected to decrease in mid-latitudes because of a decreasing meridional temperature gradient and in high latitudes because of sea-ice loss. Overall, the pattern of predicted changes agrees with previous studies ( 21– 23, 51, 52) but differs from observed changes in temperature variability. Models and observations indicate that the anthropogenic signal may not yet have emerged from the “noise” of natural variability but can be expected to do so during the 21st century. The identified hotspots are robust across models and mechanistically plausible. The predicted increase in the amplitude of temperature variability in much of the developing world, and the corresponding decrease in temperature variability in much of the developed world, could have substantial social, economic, and ecological consequences that add to the inequality in the impacts of a changing climate.

By Homer Yen (c) 1997
Air Force One -- Hail to the Chief
Blending the action-gripping essence of Die Hard and the claustrophobic intensity of Executive Decision, the resulting elixir is a potent mixture in the form of Air Force One. Being such, it is a high-flying adventure that offers a lot of roller-coaster style excitement in this airborne suspense thriller.
Harrison Ford stars as the President of the United States. After Russian terrorists (led by the sinister Gary Oldman) somehow board the world's most advanced and secure airplane, they eventually overtake the presidential plane and hold everyone hostage, including several chiefs of staff, a bevy of secret service agents, and the president's family. In exchange for the safe release of the hostages, the terrorists demand that the Russians release a recently captured military General, who was imprisoned for heinous acts of tyranny while in power.
It is an extraordinarily high price to pay for the hostages safety. Not only do the Russians not want to release a madman that could undermine the stability of the Russian government, but the leadership at home, led by Glenn Close as a formidable Vice-President and Dean Stockwell as a must-take-action Secretary of Defense, also vehemently stands by America's principle to not negotiate with terrorists. However, if his demands are not met, he will execute one hostage every 30 minutes.
Air Force One doesn't really amount to anything more than a simple story about the good guys trying to retake the plane and defeat the terrorists. But it is the caliber of the actors and the fine ingredients thrown into the movie recipe that makes this summer fare worth sampling. Ford is reliably charismatic as the President -- stern and tough, but still vulnerable when faced with decisions of the heart. Ford becomes the anchor for all that is American; all that is good; all that is just ˜ and will die for his country. Oldman plays his character with delicious intent as a psychotic militant bent on carrying out his demands. Oldman is the anchor of future Russia (at least as he sees it). He is equally willing to die for his beliefs as well.
Additionally, the movie incorporates several excitement-heightening components that keeps you at the edge of your seat. There is the constant cat and mouse chase through the tight confines of the airplane. There is constant ingenuity displayed as the adrenaline-rushed good guys try to find different ways to free the hostages or to land the plane. But most of all, there is no doubt that of all the protagonists of the summer, there is no one worth rooting for more than the President (and America) -- the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way. And, it was also interesting to see the capabilities of Air Force One, loaded with sophisticated gadgetry and advanced military technology.
Yet, despite this generally, excitingly, executed storyline, you'll find that the ending was somewhat of a letdown given all that had transpired as you question the motivations behind one of the main characters. So much so, in fact, that it slowed much of the momentum as the movie wound to a close. Nonetheless, the fast-paced action, the fine all-around performances, and the sheer enjoyment value of the film earned its wings. I salute this fine summer offering.

INEC declares Kogi West senatorial election inconclusive
by QueenEsther IroanusiThe Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared the senatorial election in Kogi West district inconclusive.
The electoral umpire said the declaration is due to the fact that the margin between Smart Adeyemi of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Dino Melaye of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is lower than the number of registered voters in 53 polling units of 20 registration areas in the zone where elections were cancelled.
Mr Adeyemi is said to have scored 80,118 votes while Mr Melaye polled 59,548 is 20,570. The number of registered voters in the affected areas is 43,127.
The returning officer, Olayinde Lawal, who declared the election inconclusive, said he is constrained by law not to declare a winner because of the lead margin between the leading candidates.
He said INEC will announce a new date for the conduct of a supplementary election in the 53 polling units before a winner can be returned.
Mr Melaye has already rejected the results.
PREMIUM TIMES and other local observer groups had also reported that the election in Kogi State was marred by violence and vote-buying.
Two observer groups, YIAGA and Situation Room, have called for the total cancellation of the elections held in Kogi on Saturday. The state’s governorship election and the Kogi West senatorial rerun election were held on Saturday.
