Fox, Rod Steiger, Tom Jones, Lukas Haas, Natalie Portman, Jim Brown, Pam Grier, Paul Winfield, Sylvia Sidney, Lisa Marie, Joe Don Baker, Christina Applegate, Barbet Schroeder. Directed by Tim Burton. Rated PG-13, **** stars (out of ***** stars)
Review by Ed Johnson-Ott www.nuvo-online.com/film/
"Mars Attacks!" is the kind of movie your parents desperately tried to keep you from seeing when you were little. In fact, this deliriously trashy film from director Tim Burton may be the ultimate "this-junk-will- rot-your-brain" movie ever made. Go see it as quickly as possible.
Burton, who presented such quirky gems as "Pee-wee's Big Adventure", "Beetlejuice", and "Edward Scissorhands," as well as the first two "Batman" films, based "Mars Attacks!" on a series of trading cards issued by the Topps Company in 1962. The cards, which showed bug-eyed Martians invading Earth, were quickly pulled off the market due to outrage over the lurid images of violence, particularly a card depicting a Martian using a ray gun to disintegrate a dog. Burton acquired the rights to the card series and began work on turning the images into a movie. He boasted that "We developed the script painstakingly by taking the cards and throwing them on the ground, and picking the ones we liked."
His haphazard vision is brilliantly realized on screen, through rich cinematography, art direction built around primary colors, stunning computer animation, and a delightfully overwrought score by longtime collaborator Danny Elfman. This is great eye and ear candy.
After a gorgeous opening sequence showing the Martian armada approaching Earth, Burton spends considerable time introducing the massive all-star cast, which includes Jack Nicholson, Glenn Close, Annette Bening, Pierce Brosnan, Danny DeVito, Martin Short, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michael J. Fox, Rod Steiger, Paul Winfield, Lukas Haas, Jim Brown and Tom Jones. In classic disaster movie fashion, the characters are spread over several locations, primarily Washington DC, Las Vegas, and a small town in Kansas. The cast play their characters broadly, as human caricatures. Burton recognized that, had they played it straight, it would have been difficult for the audience to relax and enjoy the cartoonish murder and mayhem.
The real stars of the film are the Martians, and the fun kicks in when they finally arrive. President Nicholson informs the country that extraterrestrials are on their way in a hilariously vague and inept speech. The Martian's initial landing in Pahrump, Nevada turns violent over an apparent "cultural misunderstanding." Following hasty negotiations by the hapless President, the aliens land in Washington to address Congress. In short order, their deadly intentions become crystal clear and full scale planetary war begins.
Burton tries the patience of the audience with the lengthy set-up, but delivers a whopping pay-off. The Martian assault is thrilling, technically dazzling, and extremely funny. In scene after scene, Burton's wonderfully bizarre vision virtually leaps from the screen. The computer- generated aliens are mesmerizing as they cackle with maniacal glee at humanity's attempts to make peace, then skitter around the planet, incinerating people with the coolest death rays I've ever seen. Highlights among the film's many striking images include the destruction of Las Vegas (incorporating the real implosion of the Landmark Hotel and Casino), Lisa Marie's unearthly gliding movements as an undercover Martian temptress, a flying saucer playing games with the Washington Monument, and a love scene between two victims of the Martians' twisted experiments. The latter will certainly go down as one of the strangest, and funniest, images in the history of film.
Burton succeeds in maintaining a consistently good-natured humorous tone. The film is an comedic homage to sci-fi and disaster films, not a satire. Even in the wonderfully cheesy closing scene, Burton resists the urge to smirk. His skilled hand also makes the many scenes of death and destruction easy to take. There is no malice in his vision, this is simply the work of a naughty little boy.
Despite the very slow start, "Mars Attacks!" delivers the goods. Over the years, Tim Burton has presented many wonderfully peculiar moments in uneven films. "Mars Attacks!", in all of its gory, goofy splendor, is his best work yet. And trust me, your parents would be appalled.

This component supports wayfinding by including breadcrumbs that reflect the information hierarchy of your site. The route configuration
is used to discover the current page hierarchy. The breadcrumb property of the route data ({path:..., data: {breadcrumb: 'Label'}}
) will be used as label. If no label is provided, the url is used as fallback. Dynamic routes are supported as well. The component will
try to replace the parameter key (including :
, i.e. :id
) with the parameter value in the label of a dynamic
route. URLs and parameter values displayed in a label are beautified, unless the input beautifyUrls
is set to
false
. If a breadcrumb is cut off by the maxWidth
input, a tooltip with the entire text is shown on hover.
The root route ('/') will not be included in the breadcrumbs. The federal logo or application title should be used to navigate to the root page. The current page is displayed but not clickable, since there's no point in navigating to the current location. Other mechanisms should be used for reloading.
Good to know: The breadcrumbs follows the route definition and creates only one breadcrumb per route. That means, if you have one route
with the path
user/:userId/profile
, only one breadcrumb (not three) will be displayed. E.g. the default configuration applied to the route
user/123/profile
will yield the label User - 123 - Profile
. If you want separate breadcrumbs, you need to define
separate routes: {path: 'user', children: [{path: ':id', children: [{path: 'profile'}]}]}
.

Ensembl Genomes data is available through a number of routes - which you choose depends on the amount and type of data you wish to fetch.
Many of the pages displaying Ensembl Genomes genomic data offer an export option, suitable for small amounts of data, e.g. a single gene sequence.
If you require larger amounts of data (e.g. all the genes on a chromosome) or are conducting a more detailed analysis, we recommend using our publicly-accessible MySQL server.
Alternatively, you can access a subset of Ensembl Genomes data using the DAS (Distributed Annotation System) protocol, via a simple URL.
More complex datasets can be retrieved using the BioMart data-mining tool.
If required, entire databases can be downloaded from our FTP site in a variety of formats, from flat files to MySQL dumps.
All data produced by the Ensembl Genomes project is freely available for your own use.

SHORT CUTS A film review by Scott Renshaw Copyright 1993 Scott Renshaw
Starring: Andie MacDowell, Bruce Davison, Lily Tomlin, Tom Waits, Anne Archer, Fred Ward, Tim Robbins, Madeleine Stowe, Julianne Moore, Matthew Modine. Screenplay: Robert Altman and Frank Barhydt. Director: Robert Altman.
Point #1: Raymond Carver purists might be extremely disappointed in what Robert Altman has done to some of the best short stories written in the English language. The interlocking story structure of SHORT CUTS does not serve those stories well, and the small pathos of Carver's Pacific Northwest isn't the same in Altman's Los Angeles.
Point #2: SHORT CUTS stands independently as a splendid film achievement, a brutally funny collection of fragments from broken lives crafted by a director with renewed vitality. Only an abiding cynicism and the uneven appeal of the nine main stories mar this dynamic, poetic work.
SHORT CUTS follows 22 characters through four days in contemporary Los Angeles.   Honey is married to Hollywood make-up artist Bill (Robert Downey Jr.), and best friends with Jerry and Lois (Chris Penn, Jennifer Jason Leigh). Howard and Ann's son is cared for by Dr. Ralph Wyman (Matthew Modine), who is married to aspiring artist Marion (Julianne Moore). Marion's sister Sherri (Madeleine Stowe) is married to philandering cop Gene (Tim Robbins), who's having an affair with Betty (Frances McDormand), much to the dismay of Betty's estranged husband Stormy (Peter Gallagher). Also in the milieu are the Finnigans' next door neighbors, a night club singer (Annie Ross) and her cellist daughter (Lori Singer), and Claire and Stuart Kane (Anne Archer, Fred Ward), a clown and her unemployed husband.
SHORT CUTS is about those moments when individuals are at their most basic, naked and vulnerable. Indeed, nakedness and scatology play a key role in the film, perhaps more than some viewers might find palatable. Characters in SHORT CUTS pop zits, break wind, urinate into streams, talk bluntly about sexuality and wander around in various states of undress, but none of these elements ever seem gratuitous. These are the hidden moments when men and women reveal themselves, full of insecurity, guilt and fear, and SHORT CUTS captures them with a stunning grace. In one of the film's most memorable moments, Julianne Moore stands before husband Matthew Modine making a painful confession, with evidence that she is a natural redhead in full view. In another scene, Bruce Davison squirms while his father (marvelously played by Jack Lemmon) describes the tryst that led to his estrangement from his family thirty years before. This is a film loaded with individual moments that slam home with the intensity of reality recognized, and frequently inspire nervous laughter.
In my estimation, however, Altman erred in the decision to interlock his stories. While the structure serves a purpose in emphasizing a great tapestry of lives, the impact of Carver's individual stories is largely lost. "Neighbors," in which a couple begins living vicariously through the apartment they are taking care of, is reduce to a couple of white trash folk messing up a nice place; "Collectors" becomes a single scene with a door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman. It's true that I'm criticizing the film SHORT CUTS is not rather than the film it is, but it just seems a shame that such rich source material is given such a cursory treatment. Altman never seems to identify with his own characters the way Carver did, and as a result it seems he's laughing at them and not with them.
Opinions will vary as to which stories worked best. I cast my lot for the most faithful of the adaptations, "So Much Water So Close to Home," in which Fred Ward, Buck Henry and Huey Lewis discover a dead body while on a fishing trip. "A Small Good Thing" also scores big point from the fine performances of Andie MacDowell as the nervous mother, Jack Lemmon in the previously noted turn as Bruce Davison's father, and Lyle Lovett in a quirky appearance as a baker with a mean streak. The two big losers are "Neighbors" and the one story created wholly by Altman, the relationship between a boozy singer and her daughter which tries to fit in but always seems obviously out of place. The valleys, however, are few, and the peaks are massive. At over three hours, SHORT CUTS is anything but boring. It's a sharp, clever, perceptive look at life in the big city that goes for the jugular rather than the heartstrings. These SHORT CUTS are somewhat cold cuts, but they're mighty tasty.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 short cuts: 8.

The tech industry has a massive impact on the world and our societies, both positive and negative. Social networks have brought people together but have also been detrimental to privacy. Their broad reach and algorithms have helped with the Arab Spring but also with Donald Trump and Brexit. Smartphones require materials that are often mined by child labor. Data centers draw vast amounts of energy.
A few weeks ago I listed to an episode from The New Stack podcast with Anne Curie of the cloud consulting company Container Solutions. Together with London-based diversity-focussed programming meetup Coed:Code, she organized a conference called Coed:Ethics to talk about the impact of the technology industry and what we as professionals should do.
As she told in the podcast, they wanted to produce some tangible results from the conference, and for that, the UN development goals were an inspiration because they offer a low common denominator that is entirely noncontroversial so that everybody can agree on them.
The result is a whitepaper about the state of data center energy usage in 2018, which is at roughly 2% of the entire global energy usage, and a petition to hosters and cloud providers with a simple goal: run all servers with 100% renewable energy in 2024!
I like this goal, and I’ve already signed the petition, and I recommend you do the same. There’s less than 1000 signatures so far - I think we can do much better! Also, I believe the ecological footprint is an excellent way to start a discussion about the ethics of the tech industry before we move to more controversial topics such as privacy.

Since the age of 16 years young, Draper had always been intrigued as to how music is made -
after hearing songs being played out on the radio he would instinctively go about discovering not
just their construction in the sense of instrumentation and lyricism, but also the array of production
methods employed on a plethora of different genres. Far from being born into a recording studio environment,
he acquired the most basic of sound recording software and began experimenting in collaboration with various
underground and grass roots artists.
Two years later, inspired by the stiff competition on producer-based website Indaba Music and the vast numbers
of online EDM communities, he became heavily involved in the remixing scene.
After rising through the ranks, he appeared frequently on the winners' list at Indaba, winning accolades such as
runner up on the Laurie Anderson competition judged by Lou Reed, first prize in the 'Electronic Musician' and
'Conspiracy For Good' original composition contests, and runner up in The Qemists remix competition.
Draper's first real musical impact to the world-at-large arrived when he remixed a video commentary by YouTube
celebrity Chris Smoove. The remix, entitled Waiting On A Noob, went on to become his first release, reaching the
Number 14 spot on iTunes' Hip-Hop/Rap chart within days of its release.
At the end of 2010, whilst studying at Oxford Brookes University, he released his first digital EP entitled
The Introduction. A vibrant online reaction ensued from simply cold-dropping this EP onto the internet, which
resulted in the EP being featured on several prominent blogs - ultimately, this brought Draper to the attention of
Bring Me The Horizon frontman and Drop Dead Clothing owner Oliver Sykes, who expressed his interest in working with
this promising young producer.
The result was Draper's second release, The Draper EP, as a physical CD and limited-edition t-shirt bundle through
Drop Dead in February 2012, followed by Draper's first ever live appearance - a Bring Me The Horizon after show party
at Brixton Academy in London. The association with the band even led to Draper writing music sections to form parts of
the band's live set; culminating in one of his tracks being played over the PA system situated at the Reading Festival
during Bring Me The Horizon's performance on the main stage in August 2011.
Since, during and in-between all of these events taking place, Draper continued to engage and embrace a range of
genres through his own creations in tandem with a string of prolific remixes - both laden with his unique, trademark
liquidstep style of production - which have seen his online following explode both in terms of numbers and geographical
reach. This remix repertoire includes his work on Strange Talk, Worship, Bring Me The Horizon, Bluebell, and many more.
Each time a remix or production is placed online, within a matter of days it has gone viral via sharing on YouTube channels
and Soundcloud embeds linked back to Draper's own.
In June 2012, following finishing his University degree with first-class honours, rising pop star Rita Ora personally
invited Draper to DJ for her at the 2012 Capital Radio Summer Ball, which saw the young 20 year-old perform to a sold-out
Wembley Stadium - or 100,000 people. This was his 6th ever live appearance.
The rest of 2012 will see Draper continuing to put out new creations, via his new label imprint Creasy Records, and
escalating the profile of his work via collaborations with a number of prominent artists and producers. Then there's the
live band...

Tamil Nadu improves judicial operational capacity the most, shows report
by The Hindu Data TeamThe India Justice Report, released in November 2019, shows that Tamil Nadu's judiciary improved its operational capacities more than other States between Financial Years 2013 and 2017.
Manipur, Jammu & Kashmir, Assam, Nagaland, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana were excluded.
The table lists courts across 23 States on key metrics such as infrastructure, budgets, case clearance and human resources.
image/svg+xml
All data are for the period 2012-13 to 2016-17, except 'difference in spend' (2011-12 to 2015-16).
Improvement in an indicator doesn't necessarily mean improvement in another.
For instance, Tamil Nadu had fewer cases pending at the High Court level and fewer cases pending per High Court judge, but Gujarat performed better than Tamil Nadu on the level of vacancies in its subordinate (sub.) courts and High Court.
The report was published by Tata Trusts and designed by How India Lives.
#PP: Percentage points
^ Increase in State's overall budget minus budgetary spend on the judiciary.
For instance, Rajasthan saw its total budget increase by an average of about 20% but its judiciary budget increased by only about 8%. Thus the difference is about -12


Alginate molds can be used to cast body parts. Note, the molds are very fragile and have a limited number of uses before they disintegrate.
Two Part Molds
Pour the mold mixture into the cage, partially submerging the object you're molding. Once the first part of the mold is cured, spray mold release over the surface of the exposed mold before submerging the rest of the object with fresh mold mixture.
Embedded Electronics
You can also embed electronics in casting materials such as resin. This example has a piezo element acting as a contact microphone embedded in the cast of a comb.
Casting Records - Open Face Molding
This is a one part mold in which one side of the cast is exposed to the air so there is no need for vent/sprue holes.
Apply mold mixture with a fine hair brush by stippling a thin layer over the grooves of the record. The stippling will help the mixture capture the delicate detail of the grooves. After the first layer is cured, place record into mold cage and pour enough mold mixture to ensconce the record.
Pour very low viscosity casting resin into the mold. It is helpful to pour in only one spot and allow the resin to spread and self level in order to prevent the introduction of bubbles into the cast.
You can add dyes and pigments to your resin, including glow-in-the-dark powder.
It's also fun to embed electronics into your casts as well. This example has "wireless" LEDs embedded in the resin, they are LED's connected to inductive coils that light up when exposed to an RFID or NFC field.
Why stop at casting only one record when you can combine and cast some cut ups?!


Looks like you're wanting to try out the partial compiler gem. Great! We're happy to have you.
Benchmarks will be printed in your rails server

The CharIntMap is a collection to save char
to int
mappings in. The CharIntMap is destined to provide fast access to skip tables
while being both Unicode-safe and more RAM-effective than a naive
int
array.
The CharIntMap is initialized by specifying the extent between the lowest and
the highest occuring character and the lowest occuring character. Only an
array of size highest - lowest + 1
is constructed.
There's usually no need to construct a CharIntMap yourself, it is done
automatically for you in the pre-processing methods.

In class today, we need to use arduino which is a microcontroller to control things on the circuits with the help of arduino software on the computer. There are 15 projects in total. it is still a painful process to put wire here and there, because sometimes if I messed up a tiny thing, the whole circuit would not work. I spent a lot of time outside class to finish these arduino circuits. Finally when I finished my last arduino project which is a buggy that can move when I put code into the computer, I felt really proud of myself and all these works I done were worthy.

[[SCRIPT::EnsEMBL::Web::Document::HTML::FTPMetadata]]
About the data
The following types of data dumps are available on the FTP site.
- FASTA
- FASTA sequence databases of Ensembl gene, transcript and protein
model predictions. Since the
FASTA format does not permit sequence annotation,
these database files are mainly intended for use with local sequence
similarity search algorithms. Each directory has a README file with a
detailed description of the header line format and the file naming
conventions.
- DNA
- Masked
and unmasked genome sequences associated with the assembly (contigs,
chromosomes etc.).
- The header line in an FASTA dump files containing DNA sequence
consists of the following attributes :
coord_system:version:name:start:end:strand
This coordinate-system string is used in the Ensembl API to retrieve
slices with the SliceAdaptor.
- CDS
- Coding sequences for Ensembl or ab
initio predicted
genes.
- cDNA
- cDNA sequences for Ensembl or ab
initio predicted
genes.
- Peptides
- Protein sequences for Ensembl or ab
initio predicted
genes.
- RNA
- Non-coding RNA gene predictions.
- Annotated sequence
- Flat files allow more extensive sequence annotation by means of
feature tables and contain thus the genome sequence as annotated by
the automated Ensembl
genome
annotation pipeline. Each nucleotide sequence record in a flat
file represents a 1Mb slice of the genome sequence. Flat files are
broken into chunks of 1000 sequence records for easier downloading.
- EMBL
- Ensembl database dumps in EMBL nucleotide
sequence database format
- GenBank
- Ensembl database dumps
in GenBank nucleotide sequence
database format
- MySQL
- All Ensembl MySQL databases are available in text format as are
the SQL table definition files. These can be imported into any SQL
database for a local
installation of a mirror
site. Generally, the FTP directory tree contains one directory per
database. For more information about these databases and their
Application Programming Interfaces (or APIs) see the
API section.
- GTF
- Gene sets for each species. These files include annotations of
both coding and non-coding genes. This file format is
described here.
- EMF flatfile dumps (variation and comparative data)
-
Alignments of resequencing data are available for several species as
Ensembl Multi Format (EMF) flatfile dumps. The accompanying README
file describes the file format.
Also, the same format is used to dump whole-genome multiple alignments
as well as gene-based multiple alignments and phylogentic trees used
to infer Ensembl orthologues and paralogues. These files are available
in the ensembl_compara database which will be found in
the mysql
directory.
- MAF (comparative data)
-
MAF files are provided for all pairwise alignments.
The MAF file format is described here.
- GVF (variation data)
- GVF (Genome Variation Format) is a simple tab-delimited format derived
from GFF3 for variation positions across the genome.
There are GVF files for different types of variation data (e.g.
somatic variants, structural variants etc). For more information see
the "README" files in the GVF directory.
- BED format files (comparative data)
-
Constrained elements calculated using GERP are available in BED
format. For more information see the accompanying README file.
BED format is a simple line-based format. The first 3 mandatory columns
are:
- chromosome name (may start with 'chr' for compliance with UCSC)
- start position. This is a 0-based position
- end position.

*** out of ****
Year: 1999. Starring Nicolas Cage, Patricia Arquette, John Goodman, Ving Rhames, Tom Sizemore, Marc Anthony, Mary Beth Hurt, Cliff Curtis, Nestor Serrano, Aida Tuturro. Screenplay by Paul Schrader. Directed by Martin Scorsese. Rated R.
If there's something Martin Scorsese can always be credited for, it's getting whatever his subject is portrayed correctly on screen. "GoodFellas" is considered by many to be the most accurate Mafia film ever made. "Raging Bull" got inside a boxing ring with striking realism. His 1997 film, "Kundun," was a meticulously crafted biography of the Dalai Lama. In his latest film, "Bringing Out the Dead," Scorsese is clearly going for a somewhat realistic depiction of the life of a New York City paramedic. Frankly, never having been a paramedic, I don't really know how good it was, but it was realistic enough for me. Unfortunately, "Bringing Out the Dead" isn't quite up to par with other Scorsese works. It's mediocre Marty, which basically means that while it's not the best he can do, it's well above average when compared to everything else.
Nicolas Cage stars as Frank Pierce, a paramedic who works the night shift in New York's Hell's Kitchen. Frank hasn't been sleeping well. He hasn't saved anyone for months, and he is constantly haunted by the spirit of a dead girl, the one that kicked off his "losing streak." The film opens has Frank and his partner, Larry (John Goodman), take a call for an old man suffering from a heart attack in his apartment. The old man seems to be a lost cause, but shows a faint heartbeat at the last minute. This sudden hopeful case causes Frank to become enamored of the old man's daughter Mary (Patricia Arquette), despite his colleagues' warnings not to get involved with patients. The rest of the film shows three nights Frank spends on the job, with a new partner on each of the following two nights. Marcus (Ving Rhames), the second partner, is a religious man who takes each assignment as an opportunity to turn his patients into believers, while Tom (Tom Sizemore), the third partner, is a sadistic fellow who enjoys his job only for the chance it affords him to see blood. Frank, meanwhile, spends each day looking for some kind of redemption for his previous failure.
If the previous paragraph doesn't sound like much of a plot summary, that's probably because "Bringing Out the Dead" doesn't have much of a plot to speak of. That's not necessarily a detriment, mind you. This is clearly a character-driven flick, concentrating on three days in the life of Frank Pierce. Scorsese provides plenty of his trademark visual flair, which keeps the proceedings continually interesting, even while the story slows down. We see New York City as only Martin Scorsese could film it, with the worst kind of scum imaginable, and Scorsese films them from all angles, in all shades of color. It's a kind of acid trip, only legal. Like most of this director's films, this one is always strangely engrossing, the kind of film you can't take your eyes off of, even if you don't know why.
Nicolas Cage seems a little too restrained in his role, one that he probably should have cut loose in. He seems to spend an awful lot of time staring up into the camera and looking a little too disinterested. Maybe he's been ruined by appearing in one too many brainless action movies that didn't exactly demand much from him as a thespian. I really shouldn't knock Cage, though. This is definitely his best performance since "Leaving Las Vegas," and it's loads better than his impression of a sleepwalker in "8mm." After all, to see a truly disinterested performance, one need look no further than Cage's co-star in this film. I don't know what somebody slipped into Patricia Arquette's drink, but it definitely put her to sleep. Granted, she has an uncanny ability to resonate innocence and warmth, but far too many of her scenes felt like line-reading, complete with the random pauses of someone who sounds like she's reading the script for the first time. Arquette is certainly better than she was in "Stigmata," but that's not saying much. The real bright spots of the cast are in the supporting parts. All three of Cage's partners are perfect in their roles. John Goodman is laconic and tired as Larry, which is exactly what the character calls for. Ving Rhames is a hoot as the devout Marcus, who spends the early part of the night flirting with the dispatcher (voiced by Queen Latifah), and then treats his assignments as a chance to convert patients to Christianity. A particularly good scene has him tricking a bunch of Goth rockers into believing that their friend has been healed by divine intervention, when it was really just an adrenaline shot from Cage. Tom Sizemore is appropriately over-the-top as the psychotic Tom Walls. The scene where he attacks his ambulance as Cage takes off work is priceless. Pop singer Marc Anthony does a surprising turn as a whacked-out junkie, and does it well.
As is to be expected from Scorsese, the film is often exhilarating, with symbolism to spare. I particularly liked the allegory of the dying man in the desert, begging for a glass of water. Frank has had people dying on him for so long that he just wants to save a life because "it's the greatest high in the world." There is plenty of wry humor to counterbalance the seriousness, meaning that "Bringing Out the Dead" is almost always interesting to watch. There's just something wrong with it, however, that keeps me from proclaiming it a masterpiece along with Scorsese's greatest films. I think it has to do with a lack of true focus in Paul Schrader's screenplay, and with the performances of Cage and Arquette. The film isn't plot-driven, which is fine if you've got an interesting and well-developed character. After all, "Taxi Driver" didn't have much of a plot, but Travis Bickle was one of the most dynamic characters in American cinema. Frank Pierce just isn't very interesting. There isn't half the character development we saw in "Taxi Driver" or "Raging Bull" (no Robert De Niro either, interestingly enough), and Cage doesn't help much with his good-but-not-great performance. Another problem is the surprising lack of chemistry between Cage and real-life wife Arquette. Where are De Niro and Jodie Foster when you need them? I wasn't terribly interested in their relationship until the final scene which, though a beautiful image, had its power diluted by the draggy early ones.
Scorsese always has a knack for finding wonderful imagery in every film, which he does in "Bringing Out the Dead." I loved seeing his vision of how the ghost of the young girl appears to Cage, the aforementioned final shot, Cage's hallucination about pulling people out of manholes, and countless other breathtaking images. Even though he does go a bit overboard with this when he practically turns Cage into a walking light bulb in the penultimate sequence, it's not in Scorsese's direction that the major problem lies. The real problem is a surprisingly lackluster screenplay turned out by Paul Schrader, who scripted many of Scorsese's better films ("Taxi Driver," "Raging Bull," "The Last Temptation of Christ"). There is plenty of clever dialogue and dark comedy, but little story or character development, and I can't shake the idea that I just saw "Taxi Driver Lite." Despite these problems, "Bringing Out the Dead" is still a fascinating film. It may not be up to Scorsese's usual high standards, but would certainly be an impressive accomplishment for an artist of lower standing. It's mediocre Marty, but certainly top-level Schumacher.

Chapter 7 Conclusion
The exploratory data analysis conducted in this project yielded several notable insights:
First, perhaps not surprisingly, it showed that the quality, accuracy, and completeness of the dataset collected with self-monitoring is deeply impacted by the features available to users for data collection. Furthermore, the analysis showed that particular design choices of the data collection app have a profound impact on the collected data. For example, our analysis showed considerable variability in time when blood glucose readings were captured in relation to meals (both before and after). This was likely due to the inconvenience of using a smartphone app at mealtime: the need to photograph a meal and enter its ingredients probably left many users with cold meals, which led to workarounds suggested by our analysis (recording meals and BG levels only after meals were consumed). This suggest that datasets can be best understood in the context of how this data was collected and with full awareness of features available for data collection.
Second, the analysis suggested that aggregating data across individuals yields few insights. However, viewing data for each individual can reveal interesting patterns in regards to their behaviors, and how these behaviors impact their blood glucose levels. This may suggest the need for computational data analysis methods that examine patterns on an individual level may have advantage over methods that require aggregation of data across individuals.
Furthermore, the relatively simple data analysis techniques used in this project did not reveal any consistent patterns of association between individuals’ captured records (i.e., nutrition in meals) and changes in their blood glucose levels. This may suggest the need for more extensive datasets (more data per person and across individuals) to identify any stable signal. However, it may also suggest that these relationships may be more complex, and possibly non-linear. This suggests the need for more sophisticated computational analysis methods that are better suited for sparse data and non-linear relationships.
Finally, the lack of straightforward and easy to identify associations in the data may suggest the need for interactive tools for exploratory data analysis. Such tools can help experts (e.g., diabetes educators) to examine different aspects of the dataset and probe different associations consistent with their expert knowledge and expectations. We have explored some of the features for interactive data analysis; future work could further build on our initial explorations.


Calculus, a branch of Mathematics, developed by Newton and Leibniz, deals with the study of the rate of change. Calculus Math is generally used in Mathematical models to obtain optimal solutions. It helps us to understand the changes between the values which are related by a function. Calculus Math mainly focused on some important topics such as differentiation, integration, limits, functions, and so on.
Calculus Mathematics is broadly classified into two different such as:
Basic Calculus is the study of differentiation and integration. Both concepts are based on the idea of limits and functions. Some concepts like continuity, exponents are the foundation of the advanced calculus. Basic calculus explains about the two different types of calculus called “Differential Calculus” and “Integral Calculus”. Differential Calculus helps to find the rate of change of a quantity whereas integral calculus helps to find the quantity when the rate of change is known.
Derivative by first principle refers to using algebra to find a general expression for the slope of a curve. It is also known as the delta method. The derivative is a measure of the instantaneous rate of change, which is equal to
\(f'(x) = \lim_{h\rightarrow 0} \frac{ f(x+h) - f(x) } { h }\)A derivative is simply a measure of the rate of change. It can be the rate of change of distance with respect to time or the temperature with respect to distance. We want to measure the rate of change of a function \(y=f(x)\) with respect to its variable \(x\).
The fundamental theorem of calculus states that differentiation and integration are inverse operations. More precisely, it relates the values of antiderivatives to definite integrals. Because it is usually easier to compute an antiderivative than to apply the definition of a definite integral, the fundamental theorem of calculus provides a practical way of computing definite integrals. It can also be interpreted as a precise statement of the fact that differentiation is the inverse of integration.
The fundamental theorem of calculus states: If a function f is continuous on the interval \(\left [ a,b \right ]\) and if \(F\) is a function whose derivative is \(f\) on the interval \((a, b)\), then
\(\int_{a}^{b} f(x)\,dx = F(b) - F(a)\)
Furthermore, for every \(x\) in the interval \((a, b)\),
\(\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^x f(t)\, dt = f(x)\)
Calculus is used in every branch of the physical sciences, actuarial science, computer science, statistics, engineering, economics, business, medicine, demography, and in other fields wherever a problem can be mathematically modeled and an optimal solution is desired. It allows one to go from (non-constant) rates of change to the total change or vice versa, and many times in studying a problem we know one and are trying to find the other.
Physics makes particular use of calculus; all concepts in classical mechanics and electromagnetism are related through calculus. The mass of an object of known density, the moment of inertia of objects, as well as the total energy of an object within a conservative field can be found by the use of calculus. An example of the use of calculus in mechanics is Newton's second law of motion: historically stated it expressly uses the term "change of motion" which implies the derivative saying The change of momentum of a body is equal to the resultant force acting on the body and is in the same direction. Commonly expressed today as Force = Mass × acceleration, it implies differential calculus because acceleration is the time derivative of velocity or second time derivative of trajectory or spatial position. Starting from knowing how an object is accelerating, we use calculus to derive its path.
In the realm of medicine, calculus can be used to find the optimal branching angle of a blood vessel so as to maximize flow. From the decay laws for a particular drug's elimination from the body, it is used to derive dosing laws. In nuclear medicine, it is used to build models of radiation transport in targeted tumor therapies. In economics, calculus allows for the determination of maximal profit by providing a way to easily calculate both marginal cost and marginal revenue.

Trending topics in VLDB, via key words in the titles of publications from 2000 to 2012. I did a quick and dirty job of removing stop words and stemming. If you want, you can also download the sqlite database with all of the data.
Thanks to @samrmadden for the 2000 - 2011 titles.
Thees trends are based on the most popular keywords across all years of VLDB publications
Topics such as efficiency, large, indexing, and optimization have been increasing in popularity in the past few years.
What keywords have not been doing as well? We've all heard about how XML is dead, and it certainly is by paper count measures. However so are traditionally database topics such as management, information, and relational. Also, it seems that technology and xml, are taking a downturn, as is relational -- is this the turning point for NoSQL? Strange to see OLAP slowing down, given the popularity of large data these days.
Let's now look at keywords that have burst into the scene in the past few years. These keywords are selected by computing the ratio of "the average number of times a keyword is used since 2009" by "the average before 2009".
It makes sense that words like mapreduce, social, and cloud have made a splash, but I was suprised that graphs and subgraphs have been consistently increasing in popularity in the past half a decade. As machine learning becomes more and more integrated into databases probabilistic approaches have been gaining lots of traction. Similarly, probabilistic approaches to consesus and failures distributed settings are promising. As always, being fast is what makes the big bucks.
Finally it's nice to see that crowdsourcing has finally come to the VLDB community
It's good to see that data, query and databases are never far from our minds.
