Jealous British Shorthair cat becomes internet sensation after owner pays attention to cute new kitten (VIDEO)
by BY MELANIE CHALILKUALA LUMPUR, Nov 6 ― Not everyone deals well with the prospect of a new sibling and that includes four-legged furry family members.
An adult British Shorthair was caught on camera seething with jealousy as its owner paid attention to a new orange kitten.
The video which has been circulating on social media since Monday has been entertaining viewers with the timely capture of the grey cat’s expression.
It has since been viewed over 1.2 million times and garnered more than 21,800 retweets and 93,400 likes.
“The look of utter betrayal,” wrote @MerielMyers.
The viral 14-second clip prompted a flood of comments, many of which were attempts to interpret the British Shorthair’s emotions.
“Grey cat calculating how they’re going to make it look like the orange cat ‘ran away’,” said @BayAlden.
 Watch me.,” commented @aleksandra2002.

This class is a derivative of the standard InputSource class. It provides for the parser access to data via the standard input. This input source is not commonly used, but can be useful when implementing such things as pipe based tools which exchange XML data. As with all InputSource derivatives. The primary objective of an input source is to create an input stream via which the parser can spool in data from the referenced source.

RAII object that encapsulates the Send operation over one chanel in an unknown transport.
A Sender resource is always univocally associated to a transport channel; the act of constructing a Sender Resource opens the channel and its destruction closes it.
| SenderResource | ( | SenderResource && | ) |
Resources can only be transfered through move semantics.
Copy, assignment, and construction outside of the factory are forbidden.
| ~SenderResource | ( | ) |
| bool CanSendToRemoteLocator | ( | const Locator_t & | remote | ) |
Reports whether this resource supports the given remote locator (i.e., this resource maps to a transport channel capable of sending to it).
Sends to a destination locator, through the channel managed by this resource.
| data | Raw data slice to be sent. |
| dataLength | Length of the data to be sent. Will be used as a boundary for the previous parameter. |

Only NetworkFactory is ever allowed to construct a SenderResource from scratch.
In doing so, it guarantees the transport and channel are in a valid state for this resource to exist.

This stuff is pretty amazing
The principle of Stereotype Threat says that negative stereotypes about the group to which you associate will impact your performance, academically, professionally.
One important aspect of Stereotype Threat appears when an individual joins a group either being hired as a new employee or attending a class at school. The individual realizes his or her identity in relation to the group. The differences between the individual and the group appear and are reasons for concerns for the individual. These are queues to the individual telling he or she "I am different". Other questions emerge that may bring self doubt about whether or not the individual belongs, or is capable of being a part of the group. The individuals knowledge of his or her own group stereotype may creep in and consume the thoughts of the individual, so that the individual may not perform optimally. An example would be races in under-privileged communities who may not perform as well academically have to test themselves along side others. A view of being stereotyped as not successful students becomes reality, when tested along side their peers.
I believe that as a person who is almost 40 I can be categorized as in a group that is older than my peers, who may be for the most part as young as their early 20s. I believe a younger group will continue to surround me in this career and it is a concern for me. There are stereotypes associated with being older that may include they are not as quick to learn or not as hard working, devoted or passionate. I believe I may think these things subconsciously also, but I have the power in myself to prove whether it is true for me or not. Even though I will try not to let this be a set-back for me I have no doubt that this will be in the back of my head and potentially affect my performance or take actions I would have not otherwise. These feeling may even create anxiety in me. I have to realize that diversity in background of groups is what gives the group strength. Different points of view can be the best resource for a group.
One of the methods to get around this may be to bring together individuals who have as much of a diverse background as possible, and emphasize that this is a good quality for a group and that it gives the group strength. There will be no majority culture established, only that of a diverse team group and no feelings of being an outsider for most.
One possible way to approach the problem would be to embrace individuality and diversity. It may seem that this could be suspicious that diversity is singled out though.
How can we approach an individual and give them critical feedback, so that the individual can accept the feedback and trust someone who is different than them. I think this may be a problem because individuals might be suspicious of others who are different and part of the majority. There may be a lack of trust between the individual and the group. One method is to de-emphasize the queues to the individual that there is a majority existing, while not creating suspicion in the individual by over-emphasizing diversity.

There isn't a fundamentally faster algorithm
Please: If you can figure this one out, let us know
If a course doesn't work in the first N schedules, it probably doesn't work at all
Might be good enough for some course schedulers 😉
We won't have to check if two sections overlap (That was the nested loop in our DFS)
This makes the algorithm a lot faster!
It takes up a bit more memory, but compresses well
Wait a second... I thought we didn't want any maintenance???
We don't want to have to manage a cluster of servers
Why do we even need a server?

Sowore drags DSS to court over continued detention
by https://www.facebook.com/alao.h.joshuaOur Reporter
- Accuses DSS of assaulting him
- Demands N500m compensation
The convener of #RevolutionNow Movement, Omoyele Sowore, has filed a fresh suit against the Department of State Services (DSS) over his continued detention despite being granted bail by a Federal High Court in Abuja.
In the suit marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/1409/2019 dated November 20, 2019 was filed before the Federal High Court, Abuja.
The Director General, DSS and the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) are listed as respondents in the suit.
Sowore, in the suit, accused the respondents of violating his rights by their refusal to release him despite meeting the conditions attached to the bail granted him.
Read Also: Sowore instigating violence from custody – DSS
He also accused the DSS of assaulting him when its personnel came to arrest him in Lagos.
Sowore argued that the DSS’ failure to disclose the offence he allegedly committed and why he was arrested violated his rights.
He is therefore praying the court to award N500 million damages in his favour against the respondents as compensation for the violation of his rights.
Some of the reliefs sought by Sowore are:
*”A declaration that the detention of the applicant from November 7, 2019 till date in violation of the order for his release made on November 6, 2019 is illegal as it violates his fundamental right to liberty guaranteed by Section 35 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) and Article 6 of African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights (Ratification and Enforcement Act (CAP A10) laws of the federation of Nigeria 2004.
*”An order of this court compelling the respondents to pay to the applicant the sum of N500,000, 000.00 (five hundred million naira) as general and aggravated damages for the illegal violation of the applicant’s fundamental right to life, dignity of his person, fair hearing, health, freedom of movement and freedom of association.
*”An order of perpetual injunction restraining the respondents from further violating the applicant’s fundamental rights in any manner whatsoever and however without lawful justification.”


Most of the learned essays in this book were written in the latter half of 2012, a year in which I determined–and very nearly managed—to post a piece of around a thousand words every day on your favourite website, Hooting Yard. Essays from the first half of the year have previously been collected as Brute Beauty And Valour And Act, Oh Air, Pride, Plume, Here Buckle!, to which this is therefore a companion volume. I have also taken the opportunity to append the seven surviving chapters of an abandoned work, Mr Key's Book Of Birds. These pieces were written in the spring of 2014.
The original title of this collection was Attack Of The Jellyfish Monsters From Planet Googie Withers. At the last minute, however, I changed it to The Funny Mountain, a title originally given to a fictional work of fiction imagined by the late Vivian Darkbloom in 1941.
In addition to Mr Darkbloom I would like to thank all the usual suspects, particularly Glyn Webster and Ruthie Bosch, whose contributions are noted on the copyright page. Incidentally, to find out who all the usual suspects are, may I suggest you buy copies of the seven other Hooting Yard paperbacks available, as well as the definitive anthology By Aerostat To Hooting Yard : A Frank Key Reader? The latter is published by Dabbler Editions as an ebook, selected and with an introduction by Roland Clare–to whom The Funny Mountain is dedicated, with many thanks.

Watch the Band of Gypsys discuss the making of Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Machine Gun’ in new clip
Epic.
A previously unseen interview with the late Buddy Miles has arrived online, and it sees him discussing how he worked with Jimi Hendrix to create the now legendary ‘Machine Gun’. Check out the clip exclusively on NME.com.
Next week (November 22), will see the release of ‘Songs For Groovy Children: The Fillmore East Concerts’, a new box set which captures all four historic concerts by Hendrix at New York’s Fillmore East.
Joined by Miles on drums and Billy Cox on bass, Hendrix’s now legendary concert at the venue in January 1970 went on to become his ‘Band of Gypsys’ album.
In the new clip, filmed prior to Miles’ death in 2008, he discusses how the three became the Band of Gypsys.
“The Band of Gypsys was a strong statement from three brothers, because we all had intimacy and love,” Miles explains in the clip.
“We also had a feel for what we thought was right and what we enjoyed playing.”
As for ‘Machine Gun’ itself, he describes how the classic track was inspired by Hendrix’s love of Delta Blues.
“It was taken from a style called Delta Blues. He had a deep fascination with Muddy Waters too, but that track was most definitely from the Deep South.”
The new box-set, meanwhile, captures all four of the band’s performances at the Fillmore, across the end of 1969 and the very beginning of 1970.
The 5 CD or 8 vinyl set boasts over two dozen tracks that have either never before been released commercially or have been newly pressed and newly remixed.
Those who pre- order the digital version will instantly receive the previously unreleased track “Message To Love,” from the New Year’s Eve second set performance on the collection. Preorder it here now.

A collection of techniques and ideas that aim to provide optimal viewing and navigational experience across a wide range of devices from desktops, mobile devices and tablets. A responsive website is adjusted to be useable on all devices and responds to the user’s behavior, screen size, and screen orientation.
In other words,
A fluid grid is a carefully designed layout based on proportions where all elements of the layout automatically resize their widths in relation to one another.
Issues with fluid grids:
The design can break when a browser gets too narrow. For instance, a layout with three-columns won't work out as well on a mobile device. When this occurs, use media queries.
Magic Formula: ( target / context ) x 100 = result %
In order to have fluid grids, you need to convert fixed pixel widths to percentages using the magic formula.
ex: a container of 900px inside a content width of 960px would convert to 93.75%
( 900 / 960 ) x 100 = 93.75%
Media queries apply certain CSS styles depending on a site visitor's information.
@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) { /* Small screens (default) */ html { font-size: 100%; } /* Medium screens (640px) */ @media (min-width: 40rem) { html { font-size: 112%; } } /* Large screens (1024px) */ @media (min-width: 64rem) { html { font-size: 120%; } }
Here the font size changes at certain breakpoints.
One way to tell if a site is responsive is to slowly minimize a browser window. If the page is adjusting appropriately without triggering vertical scrollbars, then it is responsive (some sites have a limit).
Another way to check is to view a page on a desktop and pull it up on a mobile device or tablet. If the layout is adjusted and fits perfectly onto the screen, then it is responsive.
You can also check by copying and pasting your site's URL onto the site Am I Responsive
It will show how your site looks on different devices.
Example of a responsive site: Starbucks
Example of a non-responsive site: Apple
Not every site needs to be responsive. Apple's site isn't responsive, but they have an app for that. It all depends on personal preference, organization stategies, etc.
Although having a responsive site is not necessary for everything (i.e. personal blogs and projects), it's always good practice to use responsive design when you want to attract more visitors to your site.
One reason: For business.
If you currently run a business that depend on the company's site for sales, it will help attract customers. If your site isn't responsive, visitors may bounce off your site and onto another competitor's site if their site is easier to use.
Since mobile usage is increasing, it is a good idea to prioritize the support of mobile context as far as user experience goes.
The concept "Mobile First" allows you to focus and prioritize on the necessary elements.
Another way to incorporate responsive design onto a web page is to utilize a framework called Twitter Bootstrap
They also have basic templates that are responsive ready.
<!DOCTYPE html>   <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>No Boostrap in this project</title>
 Not Responsive :(

  <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>With Bootstrap</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.min.css">
Hello Bootstrap!

Use bootstrap predefined grid classes such as "col-md-4" for creating page layouts in your HTML document
ex:

I am a grid

I am another grid

I am also another grid

If you don't have any programming experience or would just like another option, there are plenty of sites that will help you out.
Webflow is one option. It allows you to create responsive websites by just dragging and dropping building blocks within a browser.
Convert a fixed width layout to a responsive layout.

In order to test whether your installation is correct and in order to retrieve additional information on your system, two views are provided. The test view draws a spinning torso, while the information view simply prints out available versions and features of your graphics card and OpenGL driver.
This view shows the version numbers of the LWJGL feature, i.e. the LWJGL plugins, and the LWJGL library. For bug reports, it is usually very useful to provide additional information about your OpenGL configuration. This view provides you with a lot of necessary information. Note that not all information can be retrieved on all systems. Features not supported by your graphics card or OpenGL driver are omitted, you see only the available features and capabilities.
In order to test whether LWJGL and OpenGL works on your system, open the test view. The view should look similar to Figure 4.
The OpenGL code of this torso actually stems from an Eclipse SWT snippet: snippet 195.You should see a spinning torso and the current frames per second (fps) in the status bar. If you do not even see this torso, something has gone seriously wrong when installing the plugins. Note that other OpenGL based applications might cause problems, even if you can see this test view: The test view does not use any extended OpenGL features, such as framebuffer objects. If an application requires an additional feature which is not supported by your system (see Information View to retrieve the supported features), it won't run. Sometimes it helps to update the drive of your graphics card!

 Or, as he says, people make promises and break them; he refreshes their memories (I still don't get that. They broke the promise, they didn't forget it. Oh well). When his brother dies in a car accident, Jack goes back to his hometown to find out what happened to him. He meets his brother's daughter, Doreen (Rachael Leigh Cook), who obviously doesn't like Jack, but confides in him that she doesn't think her father's death was an accident. He proceeds to question his sister in-law, Gloria (Miranda Richardson); his brother's boss, Cliff (Michael Caine); Cyrus, an old acquaintance who now runs a porn shop (Mickey Rourke); and a rich computer geek named Jeremy Kinnear (Alan Cumming). None of them will give him straight answers, so Jack decides to beat the information he needs out of anyone he can find. He says he's going to fix things, but as Gloria points out, Jack doesn't fix things, he breaks things.
Ahh where to begin. Let me start by saying that there is really nothing good about "Get Carter". I mean nothing at all. I hunted and searched endlessly for a good thing here, pinching myself occasionally to stay awake. Alas, it was all for naught. It's never a good sign when the car chases bore you, the story loses you, the jokes hurt you, and the nicest thing you can say about the movie is, "boy, that's a nice looking golf course." That was a very nice looking golf course by the way. Wish I could play there. It was nestled away on a mountain, perfectly kept, surrounded by a deep forest of evergreen trees. Beautiful scenery.  Still, I can't procrastinate any longer, so here goes.
Try to imagine getting deposited right in the middle of a film that makes no sense at all. When I first walked in, I thought I'd somehow missed half the movie since the characters were all talking to each other like we were supposed to know what was going on. Here's an example of the dialogue between Sly and one of the Bobs from "Office Space". Bob: "I've covered your a** for long enough Jack." Sly: "What are you talking about?" (my sentiments exactly) Bob: "Well, you know, people are talking about you and Gertrude (or something like that, I just remember her name started with a "G")." Sly: "If people are talking it's because you gave them something to talk about." Now, bear in mind, this is at the very start of the film. We don't know who Gertrude is, who Bob (that's not the character's name, but that's what I kept mentally calling him) is, what Jack's job is, what in the world is going on. Already I was starting to not really care all that much. None of these questions are ever fully answered (especially not the last one), and I never did start caring what was going on. I tried my best though dang it, I tried to get into this story, but I couldn't. It was too... too... what's the word I'm looking for? Stupid! That's it.
As for the actors, first up we have the great Sly Stallone. Sly's career has been on the rocks lately, and he... uhh.. line? Sorry, Sly's career has been on the rocks, and he needed a boost to rev-reval-revitilz... line? Sly needed this movie to revitalize his diminishing career, after box-office failures such as... uhh.. line? Forget it, take five. Sorry about that folks, but Sly's acting in "Get Carter" really is that bad. The man looks completely lost during half his scenes, and I'm willing to wager they took several hundred takes before he got it right. During a few of the so-called "dramatic" moments, he has long pauses during his varied speeches, during which he gazes into the distance for dramatic effect. I'm sorry, but it looks like he forgot his lines and is looking desperately for cue cards somewhere. Miranda Richardson ("Sleepy Hollow"), is wasted in nearly every movie she appears in these days, that trend doesn't change with "Get Carter". The great Michael Caine ("The Cider House Rules") is completely wasted as the brother's friend and boss. I didn't think it was possible for Mickey Rourke ("The Rainmaker") to be considered wasted (I'm usually fairly happy when he has limited screen time), but it was pulled off here. Robin Leigh Cook ("She's All That") plays Robin Leigh Cook to the hilt, looking vaguely like a deer caught in the headlights of a semi; and the less said about Alan Cumming ("Titus") the better off we'll all be. Don't ask me to explain Bob's (John C. McGinley) presence, or the character's significance in the story, because I can't.
I don't get it. How does a movie this bad get made in this day and age? Don't the studios read the scripts before green-lighting a film? Guess not. I'd like to say that in the hands of a more capable director this could have been something, but that's not the case. Still, the direction (if you can call it that) from relative newcomer Stephan T. Kay doesn't help matters. To start with, I like a movie that throws me right into the middle of the plot; a movie that skips all that often pointless exposition of plot that will be revealed again later on. What I don't like is a movie that throws us into the middle of things and never explains itself, and "Get Carter" is just that kind of movie. Kay seems to consider himself something of an Oliver Stone fan, since he's fond of quick cuts all over the place, sudden shifts to slow motion, and anything else he can think of to "dazzle" the eye. Yet while Stone's technique is irritating, Kay's is excruciating. I didn't think it was possible to mangle a car chase to the point where you could no longer tell who was driving what, or who just smashed into whom, but Kay manages to do it. Or how about this? Sly walks up the stairs, putting on leather gloves and getting ready to crack some skulls. Rather than just filming Sly walking up the stairs, Kay films Sly walking up the stairs in quick little bursts. First he's at the bottom, then half-way up, then at the top. Why was it filmed like this? Possibly to make the film look more artistic (heh), but your guess is as good as mine.
Next up we have the dialogue, which is amusingly bad at its best, painful at its worst. Here are a few examples: "You've got as much chance as a one legged man in an a** kicking contest." Gee, clever Sly, never heard that one before. Sly approaches Alan Cumming on that neat looking golf course. Alan: "Who are you?" Sly: "Tiger Woods." Wow, that was clever too. Mickey Rourke, referring to his eyes: "Are they still pretty?" Sly: "Yeah, pretty like cat urine in the snow." Now that was REALLY clever. One of my "favorite" lines from Sly was "We're going to take this to the next level." He only says it twice, but it was old the first time. Hey Sly, how about taking your acting to the next level? Didn't think so. The film's score, from composer Tyler Bates is grating, obnoxious, and fairly useless. "Get Carter" runs an unholy 115 minutes, which should have been cut down to.. uh.. well it just should have been cut. I'd recommend the movie to those who think Stallone was jilted when he didn't get an Oscar nomination for "Judge Dredd", and give the film a much deserved one out of five stars. One last note, I know I had a full plot summary up there, but here's the real plot: Jack asks question, person won't answer, Jack threatens then with cheesy catch phrase or twists a limb till they cry uncle, person answers. What's the final threat of the movie? Possible sequel is hinted at. Uncle! Uncle!

Why do injections exist?
- Shotgun Unparsers cause Injection Vulnerabilities
But why?
- Correct Unparser Generators are not used
But why?
- IO is "soo simple", let's just use the core libs
But why?
- Core libs don't provide secure input handling
But why?
- Lacking Awareness for the problem

to solve the injection problem.
The Solution
Show, don't tell
Problem space
- Detecting unparsers
- Identifying injections in a given unparser
- Generate attacks
- Extract full grammar
Approach Overview
- Guided fuzzing using language keyword information
- Keywords are extracted from unparse trees (UPTs)
- UPTs are inferred automatically using dynamic program analysis
UPT Inference
UPT Inference
UPT Inference
UPT Inference
UPTs and Keywords
- Keywords have no origin in any input
- They are created by the unparser
- Their location in the UPT shows where (structurally) they are valid in the language
Fuzzing
- generate targeted injection candidates based on keywords
- example: "break out" of string-enclosing quotation marks
- evaluate injection success by comparing parse trees
- run both original input and modified input through unparser-parser round-trip
- compare structures of resulting parse trees
- if the parse tree changed, an injection was found
Results
- Promising results in case studies
- very accurate UPTs
- found (implanted) injection vulnerabilities
- structural keyword information can significantly improve fuzzing
- caveat: not a quantitative evaluation
- Fuzzing automatically yields PoC exploits
Key Observations
- "Recursive descent unparsers" exist
- common in ad-hoc implementations
- Difference to Taint Tracking:
- leveraging structural information to identify keywords and their scope
- Requires structural variability in unparser outputs
- poor UPTs in "template-based" unparsers
- reduced to common taint tracking
- better use a sample output for mutation fuzzing
Conclusion
Language-agnostic Injection Detection
- works for recursive descent unparsers
- use keywords from UPTs in fuzzing
Awareness
- Creating output is not just writing an array of bytes
- Injections might exist in all your unparses
Call to Action
Every programming language's core library deserves an (un)parser


Riemann solvers¶
The Riemann solver defines the hyperbolic equation that is being solved and does the bulk of the computational work – it is called at every cell interface every time step and returns the information about waves and speeds that is needed to update the solution.
The directory $CLAW/riemann/src contains Riemann solvers for many applications, including advection, acoustics, shallow water equations, Euler equations, traffic flow, Burgers’ equation, etc.
One-dimensional Riemann solver¶
Understanding the 1-dimensional solver is a critical first step since in 2 or 3 dimensions the bulk of the work is done by a “normal solver” that solves a 1-dimensional Riemann problem normal to each cell edge. (These are then augmented by transverse solvers as described below.)
See Wave-propagation algorithms and [LeVeque-FVMHP] for more details about how the algorithms in Clawpack use the Riemann solution.
The calling sequence for the 1-dimensional Riemann solver subroutine rp1 is:
subroutine rp1(maxm,meqn,mwaves,maux,mbc,mx,ql,qr,auxl,auxr,wave,s,amdq,apdq)
! Input arguments
integer, intent(in) :: maxmx,meqn,mwaves,mbc,mx,maux
double precision, intent(in), dimension(meqn, 1-mbc:maxmx+mbc) :: ql,qr
double precision, intent(in), dimension(maux, 1-mbc:maxmx+mbc) :: auxl,auxr
! Output arguments
double precision, intent(out) :: s(mwaves, 1-mbc:maxmx+mbc)
double precision, intent(out) :: fwave(meqn, mwaves, 1-mbc:maxmx+mbc)
double precision, intent(out), dimension(meqn, 1-mbc:maxmx+mbc) :: amdq,apdq
Note that the integer parameters used in this calling sequence have different names than are now being used in setrun.py. The correspondence is:
- meqn = num_eqn, the number of equations in the system,
- mwaves = num_waves, the number of waves in each Riemann solution,
- mx = num_cells, the number of grid cells,
- maux = num_aux, the number of auxiliary variables,
The input data consists of two arrays ql and qr. The value ql(:,i) is the value \(Q_i^L\) at the left edge of the i’th cell, while qr(:,i) is the value \(Q_i^R\) at the right edge of the i’th cell, as indicated in this figure:
Normally ql = qr and both values agree with \(Q_i^n\) , the cell average at time \(t_n\). More flexibility is allowed because in some applications, or in adapting clawpack to implement different algorithms, it is useful to allow different values at each edge. For example, we might want to define a piecewise linear function within the grid cell as illustrated in the figure and then solve the Riemann problems between these values. This approach to high-resolution methods is discussed in Chapter 6 of [LeVeque-FVMHP].
Note that the Riemann problem at the interface \(x_{i−1/2}\) between cells \(i − 1\) and \(i\) has data:
- Left state: \(Q_{i-1}^R\) = qr(:,i-1),
- Right state: \(Q_{i}^L =\) ql(:,i).
This notation is rather confusing since normally we use \(q_\ell\) to denote the left state and \(q_r\) to denote the right state in specifying Riemann data.
The Riemann solver rp1 also has input parameters auxl and auxr that contain values of the auxiliary variables if these are being used (see Specifying spatially-varying data using setaux). Normally auxl = auxr = aux when the Riemann solver is called from the standard Clawpack routines.
The routine rp1 must solve the Riemann problem for each value of i, and return the following (for i=1-mbc to mx+mbc):
- amdq(1:meqn,i) = the vector \({\cal A}^-\Delta Q_{i-1/2}\),
- apdq(1:meqn,i) = the vector \({\cal A}^+\Delta Q_{i-1/2}\),
- wave(1:meqn,i,p) = the vector \({\cal W}^p_{i-1/2}\),
- s(i,p) = the wave speed \(s^p_{i-1/2}\) for each wave.
This uses the notation of Wave-propagation algorithms and [LeVeque-FVMHP].
f-wave Riemann solvers¶
As described in f-wave formulation, for spatially-varying flux functions it is often best to use the f-wave formulation of the wave-propagation algorithms. This can be implemented in Clawpack by providing a suitable Riemann solver that returns f-waves instead of ordinary waves, obtained by decomposing the flux difference \(f(Q_i,x_i) - f(Q_{i-1},x_{i-1})\) into f-waves using appropriate eigenvectors of the Jacobian matrices to either side of the interface. The Riemann solver has the same form and calling sequence as described above, the only difference is that the output argument wave should return an array of f-waves. while amdq and apdq have the same meaning as before.
In order to indicate that the Riemann solver returns f-waves, the parameter runclaw.use_fwaves in setrun should be set to True, see Specifying classic run-time parameters in setrun.py.

Occupation: Attorney. Employer: Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith LLP. Please see my resume, attached, for related information.
Education: B.A., Politics (1990); J.D. (1994). Please see my resume, attached, for related information.
80205
I earned a B.A. in Politics. As part of my studies I twice interned in Washington, D.C. (once for the Communications Office of the White House; once for Senator Richard Lugar). I have not donated money to campaigns or political organizations since 11/10/15. In recent years, my political activity boils down to my vote, cast every two years, which involves educating myself on the candidates and ballot initiatives. With the passage of Amendments Y and Z in 2018, the State seeks to further ensure my vote and those of my fellow citizens are cast in an electorally competitive environment and I want to contribute to that undertaking.
I am active in the Colorado Bar Association ("CBA"). I am the Chair of the Antitrust and Consumer Protection Subsection of the CBA's Business Law Section ("BLS"). I also participate, through my Chair position, in the workings of the BLS's Executive Council. The BLS, among other activities, works to improve the judicial system and our State laws. I'm also an adjunct professor of law at the University of Denver.
As an attorney representing Colorado citizens (individuals and entities) I advocate for those clients' rights throughout the year. As Subsection Chair on Antitrust and Consumer Protection for the Business Law Section of the CBA, I, with the Subsection, advocate for State statutes that help ensure the competitive process in Colorado remains vibrant and that consumer interests are protected, including through the Colorado Consumer Protection Act.
I want to serve on the Commission because it has the opportunity to draw electoral districts that will, if formulated correctly, including through sensitivity to the integrity of voting geographies and communities of interest, be more competitive than those currently in existence.
In performing legal services, including through alternative dispute resolution and compliance with my obligations under the federal and state rules of court, it often is necessary for me to achieve consensus in the interests of my clients specifically and justice generally. To reach meaningful consensus, compromise often is the key. Compromise entails application of fair and impartial analysis to the facts and law. Without that analytical framework, it can be difficult to not only reach compromise, but to coordinate with other counsel, effectively present positions to judges and mediators, advise clients, and develop productive strategy. I will bring my consensus building and collaborative approaches to working with the other commissioners.
My work includes litigating legal actions and counseling clients on legal matters. To advocate effectively for clients and to counsel them on their individual or business dealings, I and the teams with whom I work need to fully identify the legal issues that confront my clients and how those issues are impacted by the facts and law applicable to the client's representation. To succeed in that undertaking, I and my colleagues have to apply sound, orderly, and testable processes to fact investigation and legal analysis, whether that involves interviews, data analysis, case law research, or statutory study. I have been using these analytical skills for 25+ years in resolving problems for my clients.

Everything we know about ‘Pokémon Sword and Shield,’ the newly released Pokémon games for Nintendo Switch
by Kevin Webb, Business Insider US- “Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” were released on the Nintendo Switch on November 15.
- “Pokémon Sword” and Shield” introduce dozens of Pokémon and are set in a never-before-seen region of the Pokémon world, Galar.
- Like prior Pokémon role-playing games, “Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” are two versions of the same game. Players will encounter different Pokémon depending on which version they pick, and will have to trade for Pokémon from the opposite version.
- Visit Business Insider’s homepage for more stories.
“Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” were released on the Nintendo Switch on November 15, introducing fans to the eighth generation of Pokémon.
Announced on the 23rd anniversary of the franchise, “Pokémon Shield” and “Pokémon Sword” will debut dozens of new Pokémon living in a never-before-seen part of the Pokémon world.
Like the original Pokémon titles, “Sword” and “Shield” are role-playing games. Players will adventure through the brand-new Galar region, capturing Pokémon and battling other trainers on their way to becoming the Pokémon champion.
“Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” are two versions of the same game, a long-standing tradition in the Pokémon series. Players will encounter different Pokémon depending on which version they pick, and will have to trade for Pokémon from the opposite version. Still, both games share the same story and gameplay experience.
Though “Pokémon Sword and Shield” will have lots of new Pokémon, not all of the franchise’s 800-plus creatures will appear in the game. Past Pokémon games made room for the whole roster, but the developers of “Sword and Shield” chose to focus on 400 Pokémon and spend the rest of their resources improving the game.
Here’s what you can expect from “Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” so far:
“Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” let you choose between a boy or girl trainer, a series staple since “Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire.”
You’ll choose between one of three starter Pokémon: Grookey, Scorbunny or Sobble.
You’ll travel through the Galar region, a never-before-seen part of the Pokémon world.
This is only a portion of the entire map of the Galar region. You can see the full map here.
Professor Magnolia will help introduce you to the Galar region and help you choose your starter Pokémon.
Your Pokémon will be fully rendered in 3D, and there will be dozens of brand-new Pokémon exclusive to the Galar region.
Like all Pokémon games, “Sword and Shield” will have legendary Pokémon too. Zacian is the cover star of “Pokémon Sword.”
Zamazenta is on the cover of “Pokémon Shield.” It’s still unclear how these two legendary Pokémon will factor into the game’s story.
“Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” will have dynamic environments that are impacted by the weather and time of day. When out in the wild, you’ll be able to control the camera to see more of your surroundings.
Previews for “Sword” and “Shield” have shown a number of different environments including a lakeside town, a snowy mountain trail, a desert, and a steam-powered city.
Shifting camera angles will change your view of the world as you travel. The original Pokémon games used a fixed, top-down view that limited your perspective.
Like previous games, battling other Pokémon trainers will play an important role in “Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield.”
Hop is your rival trainer in “Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield,” so you can expect to battle him multiple times during the story.
Sonia is Magnolia’s niece and assistant, and she’ll be offering players help during their journey as well.
Pokémon gyms are a staple destination in Pokémon games, where players face off against gym leaders to become the Pokémon champion.
Gym Leaders specialize in a specific type of Pokémon. If you can beat them, you’ll earn a special badge proving you’re a top trainer. Gym leaders can vary depending on whether you’re playing “Sword” or “Shield.”
Pokémon battles are a popular spectator sport in the Galar region, so every gym is a massive stadium and battles are broadcast on TV.
Leon is the Galar region’s current Pokémon Champion, meaning he’s the strongest trainer around.
Leon has no shortage of challengers. Another rival trainer named Marnie and her partner Morpeko have a massive fanbase.
Team Yell is a collection of Marnie’s biggest fans, and they’ll do whatever it takes to make her Pokémon champion, including sabotaging other trainers.
Dynamax is a new feature in “Pokémon Sword” and “Pokémon Shield” that lets you dramatically increase a Pokémon’s size and strength.
Dynamax gives you access to upgraded moves, but you can only use it once per battle, and it only lasts for three turns.
In a new mode called “Max Raid battle,” up to four players can team up to battle a Dynamax Pokémon. Some Pokémon can only be captured after being defeated in Max Raid Battle.
Some Pokémon caught in raid battles can use Gigantamax, a type of Dynamax that also changes a Pokémon’s appearance and moveset. Gigantamax Pokémon can use a unique ability called a “G-Max move” that is specific to its species.
Nintendo also released a special “Pokémon Sword and Shield” version of its new Nintendo Switch Lite consoles to celebrate the game’s launch.
“Pokémon Shield” and “Pokémon Sword” were released worldwide on November 15, 2019. Nintendo is also offering a double-pack with both games for $100, they’re normally $60 each.

SNOWBALL & SALLY: 6 months old, spayed female domestic shorthairs, 4 lbs. (Snowball) and 5 lbs. (Sally)
If you’re looking to bring some love and joy into your home, look no further than these two girls. They’re 6-month-old rescues—amazingly sweet and loving. They’re affectionate (big-time purrers and cuddlers), playful, and endlessly entertaining. They are also healthy, have had their shots, have been spayed, and are litterbox trained. Because they’ve bonded to each other, we’d like to keep them together.
ASTRO: 2 years old, neutered male, domestic shorthair, 11 lbs
Astro can thank his lucky stars, because after a car hit him, he made it out of the vet hospital in Springfield and found a temporary home with us. Astro’s a little nervous, but once he settles down, he loves people to pet him. He’s lean and lanky, and even though we think he’s fit to run a kitty marathon, he weighs almost 12 pounds! Astro is a sweetheart, but he’s very scared right now. Come meet with him and see what a great guy he can be. Maybe you can give him his forever home! For information about Astro, call Jessica at Pets to Go:<PHONE_NUMBER>.
CINDY: 3 years old, spayed female, Shepherd mix, 40 lbs.
Cindy came to us because her family was splitting up. She’s never gotten the attention a young dog needs.Cindy is super playful. She loves toys, and her favorite game is fetch. She’s a smart cookie and adapts well to positive training. She already knows “sit,” “down,” “stay,” “shake,” and “sit pretty,” and she’s learning more fun tricks like “roll over.” Cindy is house-trained, rides well in the car, and enjoys being brushed and groomed. She behaves well around the house and respects her boundaries.This special girl needs an adult-only home with people who have experience with large dogs, so she can continue to develop into a well-adjusted dog. Cindy needs someone who’ll give her very clear rules, lots of love, and plenty of exercise. In return, she’ll be your loyal friend for life.

Dirty fuel-based industries in Delhi, suburbs to remain shut till Wednesday
The Supreme Court had on November 4 banned construction and demolition activities in the region till further orders
by Press Trust of IndiaA CPCB-led task force on Monday recommended extending the restrictions on dirty fuel-based industries in Delhi and its suburbs till November 13.
The task force also recommended the ban on hot-mix plants and stone-crushers in Delhi-NCR till Wednesday.
"The operation of industries may commence from November 14," it said.
The Supreme Court had on November 4 banned construction and demolition activities in the region till further orders.
At a review meeting on Monday, India Meteorological Department officials told the 10-member task force that northwesterly winds and an increase in the incidents of stubble burning have led to a deterioration in air quality.
Delhi-NCR's air quality is expected to oscillate between "very poor" and "severe" categories till Wednesday. After November 13, stronger winds are likely to reduce pollution levels, an IMD official said.
Earlier, on the recommendations of the task force, the Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority had ordered closure till Monday morning of all coal and other fuel-based industries, which have not shifted to natural gas or agro-residue, Faridabad, Gurgaon, Ghaziabad, Noida, Bahadurgarh, Bhiwadi, Greater Noida, Sonepat and Panipat.


Making internet safer
Detecting toxicity in social media platforms
Internet has enabled people to communicate and learn from each other. Learning from others and at the same time expressing ones feeling and opinions to others requires a consoling and comforting environment. Online hate, abuse, toxicity shuns people from opening up and taking full advantage of the opportunities that online communication provides. This is observable on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and even Quora. A subtle form of toxicity in observed on Quora in the form of insincere questions. Insincere questions are those founded upon false premises, or that intend to make a statement rather than look for helpful answers.
With respect to label taxonomy, each comment can be classified into buckets:
- safe
- insincere
- toxic
- severe toxic
- obscene
- threat
- insult
- identity hate
Kaggle hosted two challenges for detecting online toxicity. The first one in 2018 was organised by Jigsaw, Google and the second in 2019 was organised by Quora. I participated in both of the challenges, and it generated some great solutions. Competitions links: Google, Quora.
In brief, the solution generally involved combination of LSTM/GRU/CNN/Boosting architectures with GLoVe/FastText/Paragram/BPE embeddings and variety of learning strategies. The main challenges were the text length, slangs being used, with misspelling, special characters, and innuendos. Hence a lot of effort went into preprocessing the data. I recommend checking out the challenge pages for the solution descriptions.
The solution we developed was a combination of all of the above. A interesting model we developed was Recurrent Capsule Networks. It was the best performing single model across the competition. Our insight was, internal data representation of a CNN does not take into account important spatial hierarchies between simple and complex objects which in NLP implies that a presence of word will have more impact on the classification rather than their relative orientation to each other. Its based on capsule networks introduced by Hinton in 2017 for computer vision tasks. We found integrating RNN with capsule networks works very well to detect toxic sarcasm and innuedos.
We tested the architecture on standard benchmark datasets which cover various text classification tasks such as news categorization and sentiment analysis, to demonstrate the generalizability of the model irrespective of the domain.
Recently there have been challenges to tackle social media toxicity in multimodal data. If this area interests you, this dataset is a good place to start: facebook hateful memes challenge

Computation of the alpha-shape and alpha-convex hull of a given sample of points in the plane. The concepts of alpha-shape and alpha-convex hull generalize the definition of the convex hull of a finite set of points. The programming is based on the duality between the Voronoi diagram and Delaunay triangulation. The package also includes a function that returns the Delaunay mesh of a given sample of points and its dual Voronoi diagram in one single object.

class Aquarium::Aspects::Pointcut
Pointcut
¶ ↑
Pointcuts are queries on JoinPoints combined with binding of context data to that will be useful during advice execution. The Pointcut
locates the join points that match the input criteria, remembering the found join points as well as the the criteria that yielded no matches (mostly useful for debugging Pointcut
definitions)
Pointcut
(composition)¶ ↑
Since Pointcuts are queries, they can be composed, i.e., unions and intersections of them can be computed, yielding new Pointcuts.

Objects¶ ↑
-
:objects => object || [object_list]
-
:object => object || [object_list]
-
:for_objects => object || [object_list]
-
:for_object => object || [object_list]
-
:on_objects => object || [object_list]
-
:on_object => object || [object_list]
-
:within_objects => object || [object_list]
-
:within_object => object || [object_list]
“Default” Objects¶ ↑
An “internal” flag used by Aspect::DSL#pointcut. When no object or type is specified explicitly, the value of :default_objects will be used, if defined. Aspect::DSL#pointcut sets the value to self
, so the user doesn't have to specify a type or object in the contexts where that would be useful, e.g., pointcuts defined within a type for join points within itself. WARNING: This flag is subject to change, so don't use it explicitly!
-
:default_objects => object || [object_list]
-
:default_object => object || [object_list]
Methods¶ ↑
A method name, name regular expession or an array of the same. By default, if neither :methods
nor :attributes
are specified, all public instance methods will be found, with the method option :exclude_ancestor_methods
implied, unless explicit method options are given.
-
:methods => method || [method_list]
-
:method => method || [method_list]
-
:within_methods => method || [method_list]
-
:within_method => method || [method_list]
-
:calling => method || [method_list]
-
:calls_to => method || [method_list]
-
:invoking => method || [method_list]
-
:invocations_of => method || [method_list]
-
:sending_message_to => method || [method_list]
Method Options¶ ↑
One or more options supported by Aquarium::Finders::MethodFinder
. The :exclude_ancestor_methods
option is most useful.
-
:method_options => [options]
Attributes¶ ↑
An attribute name, regular expession or array of the same. WARNING This is syntactic sugar for the corresponding attribute readers and/or writers methods. The actual attribute accesses are not advised, which can lead to unexpected behavior. A goal before V1.0 is to support actual attribute accesses, if possible.
-
:attributes => attribute || [attribute_list]
-
:attribute => attribute || [attribute_list]
-
:reading => attribute || [attribute_list]
-
:writing => attribute || [attribute_list]
-
:changing => attribute || [attribute_list]
-
:accessing => attribute || [attribute_list]
If :reading
is specified, just attribute readers are matched. If :writing
is specified, just attribute writers are matched. If :accessing
is specified, both readers and writers are matched. Any matches will be joined with the matched :methods.
.
Attribute Options¶ ↑
One or more of :readers
, :reader
(synonymous), :writers
, and/or :writer
(synonymous). By default, both readers and writers are matched. :reading => ...
is synonymous with :attributes => ..., :attribute_options => [:readers]
. :writing => ...
and :changing => ...
are synonymous with :attributes => ..., :attribute_options => [:writers]
. :accessing => ...
is synonymous with :attributes => ...
.
-
:attribute_options => [options]
Exclusion Options¶ ↑
Exclude the specified “things” from the matched join points. If pointcuts are excluded, they should be subsets of the matched pointcuts. Otherwise, the resulting pointcut will be empty!
-
:exclude_pointcuts => pc || [pc_list]
-
:exclude_pointcut => pc || [pc_list]
-
:exclude_join_points => jp || [jp_list]
-
:exclude_join_point => jp || [jp_list]
-
:exclude_types => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_types => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_type => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_types_and_descendents => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_type_and_descendents => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_types_and_ancestors => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_type_and_ancestors => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_types_and_nested_types => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_type_and_nested_types => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_types_and_nested => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_type_and_nested => type || [type_list]
-
:exclude_objects => object || [object_list]
-
:exclude_object => object || [object_list]
-
:exclude_methods => method || [method_list]
-
:exclude_method => method || [method_list]
-
:exclude_attributes => attribute || [attribute_list]
-
:exclude_attribute => attribute || [attribute_list]
The exclude_
prefix works with the synonyms of the options shown.
Pointcut.new
also accepts all the “universal” options documented in Aquarium::Utils::OptionsUtils
.

Finiteness, infinity and classical logic
Prove the following theorems ( You will need classical logic ! ).
Require Import chap13.
Require Import Classical.
Lemma Not_Infinite_Finite :
forall (A:Type) (l:LList A),
~ Infinite l -> Finite l.
Lemma Finite_or_Infinite :
forall (A:Type)(l:LList A), Finite l \/ Infinite l.
Remark
Notice that classical logic is really needed for proving
Finite_or_Infinite. If this theorem were provable in intuitionnistic logic, we could infer an algorithm for deciding whether the computation of any Turing machine is finite.

Due to the general poverty here, theft, pickpocketing and bag snatching are generally the crimes to be aware of. Distraction theft being a common technique.
A high number of robberies have been reported. Paita is a particularly dangerous port. The use or purchase of drugs is severely punished and can lead to 15 years' imprisonment. There have been reports of the planting of drugs on foreigners by police followed by demands for high sums of money for the charges to be dropped. Guerilla activities still continue, and police and army searches are common.
Political protests can close even main highways for days, even weeks at a time.
If planning a wilderness trip, go with a group and take advice on the safe areas in which to hike.
United States citizens can obtain more information from the Country Officer for Peru, Office of Andean Affairs, Department of State, Washington DC.
The climate of coastal Peru is greatly influenced by the cold Humboldt current, which keeps temperatures cool throughout the year and often produces coastal fog. There is very little rain along the coast which is arid and desert-like. The prevailing winds are south or southeasterly and usually light.

Dev Bootcamp Phase 0
Week 7
January 21, 2016
Looping in your code: it can be a beautiful thing and it can be headache inducing. In DBC we've just switched from Ruby to JavaScript. The hardest part of this switch for me has been the change in looping / iterating over objects. You see, ruby has a ton of built-in methods that handle the most challenging aspects of looping for you. JavaScript (at least in its current version) requires a more manual approach to iteration.
Let me show you what I mean:
In Ruby:
Let's say I have the array above and what to access EACH item in the array, I can do that fairly quickly in ruby:
And if I need to access each item WITH INDEX (or position in the array) too? No problem:
And what if I needed only some of the items in my array? I can SELECT these fairly easily:
Or MAP new values to each place in the array:
I can also iterate over EACH key and value in hashes (what would be an object in JavaScript):
See? Wasn't that simple! Now let's take a look at JavaScript ...
In JavaScript:
In JavaScripts latest version, iterating over objects is not quite so simple. Let's see what it takes to do all the iterations I did in Ruby above:
Our array again:
Access each item in an array:
Access each item in an array and its position:
Select only certain items in an array:
Change items in an array:
Iterate over an object (hash in Ruby):
-----------------------------------
You probably already noticed, but most of the above code is more involved and longer for JavaScript. The silver lining with this appears to be that while using JavaScript, you'll have to really be on top of your logic (which can be helpful once you dive deep into more advanced code). Of course the downside (at least for me) is that it is less clean, less DRY, and sometimes (because of how used to Ruby I've become) less intuitive.
One good piece of news is that I hear the next set of JS standards will include a lot more built-in ruby-like functionality. Can't wait for that!

The MediaPlayer object can be used to play sound files from the phone or tablet.
Create a MediaPlayer object using the CreateMediaPlayer method of the app object:
Use the SetFile method of the MediaPlayer object to set the sound file to play. Supported sound file types include .ogg and .mp3.
To play sound files from your App sound assets, the file name passed to the SetFile method must start with "Snd/". For example:
When the sound file is ready for playback, the OnReady callback function will be called. Use the SetOnReady method to set the name of your OnReady callback function.
The SeekTo method can be used to adjust the playback position by passing in the time in seconds. Passing in 0 will set the playback position to the beginning of the sound file.
When the sound file has finished playing, the OnComplete callback function will be called. Use the SetOnComplete method to set the name of your OnComplete callback function.
See 'CreateMediaPlayer for more informations and a complete function list


This document explains how to install and uninstall Google Sitemap Generator.
In this document:
This section provides installation instructions for Windows platforms.
These are the prerequisites for installation:
Installation of Google Sitemap Generator restarts the World Wide Web Publishing service. Be sure to perform the installation at a time when the restart won't cause a problem.
Follow these steps to install Google Sitemap Generator:
Note: If you've previously installed Google Sitemap Generator, or if you've started the installation and not completed it, the installer asks whether you want to repair the software or remove it. Select Remove Google Sitemap Generator (Beta) and then click Finish to start the uninstallation program. When uninstallation is complete, you can restart the installation.
The Privacy Warning now appears.
The Automatic Sitemap submission panel now asks whether you want Google Sitemap Generator to start up with automatic submission of Web Sitemaps enabled. When the software starts running, automatic submission is disabled by default.
If you accidentally choose one of the first two options during a reinstall, the specified configuration applies, but your old configuration file will be lost. If you accidentally choose the last option during your first install, the default value of starting with automatic submission disabled applies.
Because IIS must restart before Google Sitemap Generator takes effect, you're now asked about the IIS restart.
The Select Installation Folder page appears, showing a default folder and letting you choose a different folder.
A progress bar appears while Google Sitemap Generator installs its Windows service and IIS filter and then restarts the World Wide Web Publishing service. Several windows may open and close during this time.
Command windows now display the startup of various components. When all startup is complete, a browser opens, to the address http://your-address:8181. The Installation Complete page of the installer program might be behind your browser.
Now you're ready to configure Google Sitemap Generator, which has already detected your websites. View the configuration document for more information about how to configure the settings for your websites.
Installation of Google Sitemap Generator has the following effects on your system:
Google Sitemap Generator is then ready to uninstall its Windows service and IIS filter, and to restart the World Wide Web Publishing service.
This section provides installation instructions for Linux platforms.

The installer now displays the default installation directory, or the non-default value that you specified on the installation command line.
Google Sitemap Generator will be installed into /usr/local/google-sitemap-generator
If the directory is not empty, the install script asks whether you want to overwrite the old files in the directory. If you agree to overwrite the files, you don't lose the old configuration file and database that you'd previously saved during the previous uninstallation.
If you did not use the -a
or -t
option to start the installation script, it now asks for the location of the Apache binary file (httpd) or control script (apache ctl), so that it can find the configuration file and get information about your Apache installation.
This installation updates the Apache configuration file. To find that file, the installer needs the location of the Apache binary (httpd) or control script (apachectl). The binary or control script that you specify must support the -V option. What is the location of the Apache binary or control script? [/usr/sbin/apache2]
The installation script now displays information about your Apache configuration and asks whether it is correct.
********************************************************************* The following information about your Apache installation has been detected: * Apache version: 2.0 * Apache architecture: 32 bits * Apache root configuration file: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf * Apache pid file: /var/run/apache2.pid * Apache group: www ********************************************************************* Is all of this information correct? If you answer No, installation will terminate and you'll need to restart the installation, using the necessary command-line options. [N/y]

This section describes the changes that the installation makes to your system. The section covers:
Installation of Google Sitemap Generator creates the files listed in the following table.
| File | Description |
|---|---|
/usr/local/google-sitemap-generator |
Path to the program files, settings, and so on |
/etc/google-sitemap-generator |
Global registry information about Google Sitemap Generator |
/etc/init.d |
Contains scripts for starting Google Sitemap Generator. |
During installation, the installation script first backs up the Apache configuration file and then modifies the configuration file. The installation script does the following:
/etc/google-sitemap-generator/httpd.install.conf
Include /usr/local/google-sitemap-generator/conf/httpd.conf
If you uninstall Google Sitemap Generator, the uninstallation script removes the Include line from the configuration file.
Once installation is complete, Google Sitemap Generator service automatically starts when the system starts. When the system is running, you can control the Google Sitemap Generator service by running this script, for which you'll need root privileges:
/usr/sbin/google-sitemap-generator-ctl
You must have root privileges in order to run the script.
Use the following command to control the Google Sitemap Generator service:
sudo google-sitemap-generator-ctl service start | stop | restart
Note that this script controls the Google Sitemap Generator service, but it does not control the Sitemap filter in Apache. To control the filter, you'll need to use the Apache controller.
Before starting, note that the Apache server must be stopped in order for uninstallation to occur. If the Apache server is running, you will be asked to stop it.
To uninstall Google Sitemap Generator, use the root account to run the uninstall script, as follows:
/usr/local/google-sitemap-generator/uninstall.sh
The last lines of the uninstallation script are as follows:
The URL database and application settings file can be saved and used when you reinstall. If you choose to save the files now, but later you want to remove them, you can run this script again." "Do you want to save the URL database and application settings file ? [Y/n]"
