Chinese vase bought for $1 sells for $500G
by Chris CiacciaThe find of a lifetime has turned into an even bigger pot of gold than expected.
Initially expected to sell for approximately $100,000, a rare Chinese vase that was made for the 18th-century Qianlong Emperor has sold for $487,000, or 380,000 British pounds, SWNS reports.
When the fees associated with the sale are included, the overall figure jumps to approximately $620,000, or 484,000 British pounds.
CHINESE VASE BOUGHT FOR $1 COULD BE WORTH $100G
The vase was purchased at a store in Hertfordshire, England by an unnamed buyer, who then unassumingly listed the vase on eBay, the Daily Mail previously reported. After getting a slew of inquiries about it, the buyer realized the small yellow vase could be very valuable and took it to Sworders Fine Art Auctioneers, who told the buyer it was in fact made for the emperor.
The family rose is seen on the vase, which indicates it was not to be exported, but rather placed inside one of the emperor's palaces.
The catalog description of the vase notes that it is pear-shaped and is flanked by a pair of ruyi handles to the waisted neck. The 8-inch-high vase also has an inscription that reads "Weijing weiyi," which means to "be precise, be undivided."
There is also an inscription on it, with an imperial poem and two iron-red seal marks that say "Qianlong chen han" or "the Qianlong Emperor's own mark," the Mail added.
Yexue Li, head of the Asian art department at Sworders, told Fox News that the inscription makes the vase "special."
"The enamel on the vase is special because it uses yangcai (foreign) enamels on a yellow ground — a special color traditionally reserved for the emperor," Li said in a September interview with Fox News. "It's a high-quality vase because it was court commissioned, so it would have been of a high value when it was made. It is very exciting, and we've had a lot of interest already."

Following the sale, Li said it was the "perfect auction story" for such an important piece. "This has been the perfect auction story, a bargain find, a culturally important and beautiful work of art and a life-changing sum of money for the vendor," Li said in comments obtained by SWNS. "He is understandably ecstatic."
The Qianlong Emperor was the sixth emperor of the Qing dynasty, having reigned from 1736-1796, according to the auction house. He eventually left the throne, abdicating it to his son, the Jiaqing Emperor. He died at the age of 87 in 1799.

Organic CertificationOrganic certification is a certification process for producers of organic food and other organic agricultural products. In general, any business directly involved in food production can be certified, including seed suppliers, farmers, food processors, retailers and restaurants. Requirements vary from country to country (List of countries with organic agriculture regulation), and generally involve a set of production standards for growing, storage, processing, packaging and shipping that include:

Organic Farming |
|||||
|
It is a method of farming system which primarily aimed at cultivating the land and raising crops in such a way, as to keep the soil alive and in good health by use of organic wastes (crop, animal and farm wastes, aquatic wastes) and other biological materials along with beneficial microbes (biofertilizers) to release nutrients to crops for increased sustainable production in an eco friendly pollution free environment. As per the definition of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) study team on organic farming “organic farming is a system which avoids or largely excludes the use of synthetic inputs (such as fertilizers, pesticides, hormones, feed additives etc) and to the maximum extent feasible rely upon crop rotations, crop residues, animal manures, off-farm organic waste, mineral grade rock additives and biological system of nutrient mobilization and plant protection”. FAO suggested that “Organic agriculture is a unique production management system which promotes and enhances agro-ecosystem health, including biodiversity, biological cycles and soil biological activity, and this is accomplished by using on-farm agronomic, biological and mechanical methods in exclusion of all synthetic off-farm inputs”. |

A simple but fun Angular.js and Bootstrap powered Contact Manager application by a coder that watches far too many science fiction action flicks. Coded by Ryan Hunter. See the GitHub code source.


We’ll start by writing up the data formally. For reference I’ll start with the standard linear model for regression just to get our bearings. We depict it as follows:
\[ \mu = b_0 + b_1*x_1 + b_2*x_2 \dots b_p*x_p \] \[ \mu = X\beta \] \[ y \sim \mathcal{N}(\mu, \sigma^2)\]
In the above \(\mu\) is the linear predictor, the weighted combination of \(p\) covariates \(x\), written two ways, one explicit and one using matrix notation, where \(X\) is the model matrix and \(\beta\) the vector of coefficients. The former is for those who are not familiar with matrix notation, as the latter can just be considered shorthand[^subscript]. The coefficients we wish to estimate are \(\beta\), and for the normal distribution we also need to estimate the variance \(\sigma^2\).
For binary target variables we do not assume the data generating process is a normal distribution, but instead we often consider a binomial as above. The Bernoulli distribution is a special case of the binomial for the situation where size=1, and might be more optimal to use for some modeling approaches (e.g. Stan). With logistic regression, the linear predictor is the logit, or log of the probability of the specific label of interest over the 1 minus that probability. Note that which label we refer to is arbitrary, e.g. whether you want the probability to regard a ‘yes’ outcome or ‘no’ is entirely up to you.
The logit is the name for the (natural) log of the odds, \(\pi/(1-\pi)\), i.e. the ratio of the probability of the event of interest, \(\pi\), to the probability of its non-occurrence. It theoretically ranges from \(-\infty\) to \(\infty\) and is centered at zero, which is akin to a probability of .5. The logit is assumed to be some function of the covariates.
\[\begin{align} \textrm{Logit}&\: \vcenter{:}\mathord{=} \:\ln(\frac{\pi}{1-\pi}) \\ \textrm{Logit} &= X\beta \end{align}\]
The transformation function, or link function, of interest is the logistic link, hence the name logistic regression. Probabilities are inherently nonlinear, e.g. the change from .05 to .10 is a doubling of the probability, while that from .50 to .55 is only a 10% increase. To engage in a linear model of the sort we use in other modeling approaches, the logistic link transforms the probability response to the logit. Converting back to the probability scale requires the inverse logistic function, which might be depicted in different ways.
\[\begin{align} \pi &= \textrm{Logit}^{-1} \\ \pi &= \frac{1}{1+e^{-XB}}, \textrm{or} \\ \pi &= \frac{e^{XB}}{1+e^{XB}} \end{align}\]
And finally, given the probability, we can get the likelihood of the the response given that probability.
\[\begin{align} y &\sim \mathrm{Bin}(\pi, \mathrm{size}=1), \textrm{ or} \\ y &\sim \mathrm{Bern}(\pi) \end{align}\]
To make this clearer, let’s convert a value presumed to be on the logit scale to a probability. We’ll demonstrate the logit and inverse logit as well as the alternate ‘by-hand’ ways it might be depicted in various sources.
plogis(0) # convert to probability
[1] 0.5
log(.5/(1-.5)) # logit
[1] 0
qlogis(.5)
[1] 0
plogis(-1)
[1] 0.2689414
plogis(1) # 1 minus plogis(-1)
[1] 0.7310586
1/(1+exp(-1))
[1] 0.7310586
exp(1)/(1+exp(1))
[1] 0.7310586
Such a model is often called a logit model. However, calling a model by its link function seems odd to me for several reasons: there are several link functions one might use, the logit link function is used for other models (e.g. ordinal, neural nets), just calling it logit model doesn’t tell you how many categories are present, and we don’t do this with other models. Case in point, a very common alternative is the probit link function, which uses the cumulative normal distribution[^qnorm] to convert the probability scale to the logit. Practically anything that converts the linear predictor to \((0,1)\) will technically work. However, calling it a ‘link’ model does not change what one thinks about the underlying response distribution in this setting.
\[ y \sim \mathrm{Bern}(\pi) \quad \scriptsize{\textrm{(a probit model, same as the logistic model)}} \]
An example of different link functions is shown in the next figure. There are sometimes reasons to prefer one over another, e.g. considering what one thinks about the tails of the distribution, and some can be seen as special cases of others (e.g. the complementary log-log is a special case of generalized extreme value). The choice becomes more important in multinomial and ordinal models.

Microsoft Teams gives administrators powerful tools to manage teams and connect users. Two general types of management tools are employed: graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and command-line and automation tools. Be aware that to take advantage of full administration capabilities using these two toolsets, you need to be assigned either the Global or Teams Service Administrator role.
The primary GUI tools for Teams management are:
Command-line and automation tools include:
Teams management tools can be accessed in the Microsoft Teams admin center under Teams > Manage teams. Each team is backed by a Microsoft 365 group, and this node provides a view of groups that have been enabled for Microsoft Teams in your organization. Administrators can edit group and team-specific settings here.
You can turn apps off or on for Teams in Tenant-wide settings in the Microsoft 365 admin center. You must have Microsoft 365 administrative permissions to access these settings. Under Apps, you can turn default apps on and off and configure settings to control external apps.
Default apps, such as Planner, Praise, and Weather, are provided by Teams. To turn on an app, select the check box for that app. To turn off an app, clear the check box.
External apps are provided by third parties. You can configure the following settings for external apps:
You can also control organization-wide user settings in the Microsoft Teams admin center under Org-wide settings.
The Microsoft 365 security and compliance centers are designed to help you manage compliance features across Microsoft 365 for your organization, including Teams. Links to existing SharePoint and Exchange compliance features bring together compliance capabilities across Microsoft 365. To use the Security & Compliance Center, you must either be assigned the global administrator role or have been assigned to one or more Security & Compliance Center role groups by a global administrator.
PowerShell is a shell and scripting language that helps system administrators and power users rapidly automate management tasks from a command line. Administrators can use PowerShell to manage settings, configuration, and policy in Teams.
The PowerShell controls for managing Teams are found in two different PowerShell modules: the Microsoft Teams PowerShell module, and the Skype for Business PowerShell module. The Teams PowerShell module contains all the cmdlets you need to create and manage teams. The Skype for Business PowerShell module contains the cmdlets to manage policies, configurations, and other Teams tools.
These cmdlets work only on the teams for which you are an owner or a member. Global Administrators or Teams Service Administrators can act on all teams in your organization.
Microsoft Graph is the gateway to data and intelligence in Microsoft 365. Graph provides a unified programmability model that you can use to access the tremendous amount of data in Microsoft 365, Windows 10, and Enterprise Mobility + Security. Graph is built on a REST-based API that allows access to Teams and other Microsoft 365 services.
In Graph, Teams is represented by a group resource, since Teams and Microsoft 365 Groups both work together to facilitate group collaboration. Most of the same group-based features apply to Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 groups, the main difference being the way members communicate with each other. Team members communicate by persistent chat in the context of a specific team. Microsoft 365 Group members communicate by group conversations, which are email conversations that occur in the context of a group in Outlook. Microsoft Graph is a very powerful tool for managing actual teams.

Unlike EESS, this implementation does not compute all resultants modulo primes
such that their product exceeds the maximum possible resultant, but rather stops
when NUM_EQUAL_RESULTANTS
consecutive modular resultants are equal.
This means the return value may be incorrect. Experiments show this happens in
about 1 out of 100 cases when N=439
and NUM_EQUAL_RESULTANTS=2
,
so the likelyhood of leaving the loop too early is (1/100)^(NUM_EQUAL_RESULTANTS-1)
.
Because of the above, callers must verify the output and try a different polynomial if necessary.

I don't think in a way that allows for building things with my hand - no wood working or arts and krafts for me. I love programming because it gives me a creative outlet for how I think.
Growing up in New Hampshire there was no shortage of beautiful mountains to explore. On solo hike in the White Mountains I decided to combine my love of hiking with my love of programming. I started to plan a video series, a series for people who love spending time outdoors and at the keyboard.

filmcritic.com presents a review from staff member Robert Marley. You can find the review with full credits at http://www.filmcritic.com/misc/emporium.nsf/2a460f93626cd4678625624c007f2b46/9e0c4592566c4fe7882569080063bf70?OpenDocument
The Opportunists A film review by Robert Marley - Copyright © 2000 filmcritic.com
Director: Myles Connell Producer: John Lyons, Tim Perell Screenwriter: Myles Connell Stars: Christopher Walken, Peter McDonald, Cyndi Lauper, Vera Farmiga, Donal Logue MPAA Rating: R Year of Release: 2000
Christopher Walken is a great choice to work with any first-time director/screenwriter, as he can "sell" any character put in front of him. From a sword-swinging headless horseman in Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow to a wristwatch smuggling Air Force Captain in Tarentino's Pulp Fiction, Walken breathes an air of believability into any persona, which is hardly something that every actor can do. Because of this, the films he is in always seem to be at the very least entertaining, and The Opportunists is no exception to the rule. Set against the backdrop of the Sunnyside, Queens neighborhood of New York, The Opportunists is the story of a man who can't seem to do the right thing, no matter how hard he tries.
Walken plays Victor Kelly, an ex-con turned auto mechanic struggling to be a responsible man, earning an honest living in the hopes of redeeming himself for the lifetime of trouble he has brought down on his small, fractured family. Add to the mix a young man named Michael (Peter McDonald) who appears at his doorstep, claiming to be a cousin from Ireland. Ironically, Michael has come to America to learn from the man he believes is a successful mobster - as legend back home tells it. What he actually finds in Vic is completely different. Vic is a proud man with some heavy financial headaches. Too bullheaded to accept help from his girlfriend (Cyndi Lauper). Vic soon realizes his skills as a mechanic are not nearly as marketable as his safe-cracking skills, and he reluctantly finds himself risking everything for one last shot to save his business and his family.
The Opportunists is the feature debut of Irish-born director Myles Connell, whose only other work appears to be an episode of Homicide: Life on the Street. Connell sold the idea to producers John Lyons and Tim Perell at the Sundance film festival and has done a good job of penning the script. All the characters seem real, not comical for the sake of levity, not two-dimensional for the sake of clarity, but believable for the sake of the story. And for that, Connell should be commended for a great first effort.
While the pacing of the film seems a bit slow (which is odd, considering the movie is only 90 minutes long) the story being told is fresh enough to keep you in your seat and interested in what is going on on-screen. Of particular note, Cyndi Lauper does surprisingly well opposite Walken, which helps add to the overall believability of the picture. Fresh and entertaining, The Opportunists is a tribute to flawed but worthy men everywhere.

Dimensionality Detection
This tutorial showcases how the package can be used to find out the dimensionality of any arbitrary atomistic geometry.
To determine the dimensionality of a system, we use a modified version of the topological scaling algorithm (TSA) 1. The algorithm is based on analyzing the size scaling of atomic clusters when going from the original system to a bigger supercell of the same system. With TSA, the dimensionality \(D\) is given by
where \(N_n\) is the number of clusters in a supercell that is repeated \(n\) times in each periodic direction and \(n_\mathrm{pbc}\) is the number of periodic dimensions. For the clustering we use the Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise 2 data clustering algorithm. The advantage of this algorithm is that it does not require an initial guess for the number of clusters and it can find arbitrarily shaped clusters. The clustering requires that we define a metric for the distance between atoms. We use the following metric:
where \(\vec{r}_i\) and \(\vec{r}_i\) are the cartesian positions of atom \(i\) and \(j\), respectively, and \(r_i\) and \(r_j\) are their radii. The radii definition can be changed and defaults to covalent radii 3 . It is important to notice that in this metric the distances always follow the minimum image convention (MIC), i.e. the distance is calculated between two closest periodic neighbours. By using the distance to the closest periodic neighbour we obtain the correct clusters regardless of what shape of cell is used in the original simulation.
The clustering uses two parameters: the minimum cluster size \(n_\mathrm{min}\) and the neighbourhood radius \(\epsilon\). We set \(n_\mathrm{min}\) to 1 to allow clusters consisting of even single atoms and \(\epsilon\) defaults to 3.5 Å. At present, a system, in which there is more than one cluster in the original non-repeated system (\(N_1 \gt 1\)), is classified as unknown. Such a case corresponds to systems with multiple components that are spatially separated, such as a molecule far above a surface, low density gases, widely spaced clusters in vacuum, etc.
The following code illustrates how dimensionality detection can be performed with MatID.
from matid.geometry import get_dimensionality
from ase.build import molecule
from ase.build import nanotube
from ase.build import mx2
from ase.build import bulk
# Here we create one example of each dimensionality class
zero_d = molecule("H2O", vacuum=5)
one_d = nanotube(6, 0, length=4, vacuum=5)
two_d = mx2(vacuum=5)
three_d = bulk("NaCl", "rocksalt", a=5.64)
# In order to make the dimensionality detection interesting, we add periodic
# boundary conditions. This is more realistic as not that many electronic
# structure codes support anything else than full periodic boundary conditions,
# and thus the dimensionality information is typically not available.
zero_d.set_pbc(True)
one_d.set_pbc(True)
two_d.set_pbc(True)
three_d.set_pbc(True)
# Here we perform the dimensionality detection with clustering threshold epsilon
epsilon = 3.5
dim0 = get_dimensionality(zero_d, epsilon)
dim1 = get_dimensionality(one_d, epsilon)
dim2 = get_dimensionality(two_d, epsilon)
dim3 = get_dimensionality(three_d, epsilon)
# Printing out the results
print(dim0)
print(dim1)
print(dim2)
print(dim3)
This example if also available in “examples/dimensionality.py”.

Sherlock creators say Dracula drama would scare children
The series is a co-production between BBC One and Netflix.
Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat have said any children staying up to watch their new adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula will be “properly frightened” as it returns to the story’s Gothic traditions.
The three-part series – a co-production between BBC One and Netflix – stars Danish actor Claes Bang in the title role and the BBC has said it would reintroduce the world to the “vampire who made evil sexy”.
Moffat told Radio Times magazine: “This is not for kids. Any kid who stays up to watch it will be properly frightened, but it won’t disturb them – it’s cracking good fun.”
Gatiss added it was time for a change after recently having “the era of the kind, teen vampire – Twilight and Buffy”.
He said: “But now it’s time to go Gothic again.
“For a time, you wouldn’t have been able to do the castle, the bats and the man in the cape by moonlight. But now you can.”
Moffat added: “There are some genuinely unsettling bits. But then there are unsettling moments on a good ghost ride.
“I’m not a fan of nihilistic things – I think, in principle, that there should be hope and human decency in everything.”
The mini-series was inspired by Stoker’s classic Gothic novel.
The drama is set in 1897, with the blood-drinking count in Transylvania drawing up his plans against Victorian London.
The cast also includes Joanna Scanlan, John Heffernan, Dolly Wells, Morfydd Clark and Lujza Richter.
This week’s Radio Times is out on Tuesday.

This was my first experience with a drug other then alcohol and marijuana. From this experience my viewpoints on drugs, and possibly life as a whole were changed. I had wanted to do mushrooms for about 6 months prior to tripping, and was very excited when I finally did.
It was a beautiful summer morning and my friends (M, J and G) and I had arranged to pick up shrooms for the first time. We got 8 grams (dried) total. 2 For each of us. Though I could not find out the specific strand of mushroom, we were told they were good shrooms and based on my trip I assume they were.
=======
=======
[T+0:00]
Apon receiving the shrooms I suggested we crushed them into powder before distributing them so that everyone got an even dosage. We put the shrooms in a bag and ground them into a powder before dividing and distributing them into four patented peanut-butter-shroom sandwiches.
We sat outside J's house happily munching. It didn't taste bad at all, but little dried pieces cut up my tongue a little bit. We talked and sat for awhile filled with excitement and anticipation when we got a call from our friend K. She invited us to her house. My stomach churns with excitement. I hoped the environment change wouldn't lead to paranoia. (It never did)
We hopped on our bikes and traveled down several busy roads until we got in front of her house located in a beautiful wooded suburb area. K came out of her house and sat us on the curb, we chatted and joked for awhile. I checked my watch and saw it had been 45 minutes. I began to grow nervous afraid that we got faulty mushrooms.
[T+1:00]
I begin to notice a somewhat drowsy feeling pass over me. Things begin to feel somewhat dream-like and my nervousness is washed. I feel happy and free. J has his arms wrapped around himself and is shivering. 'I'm cold.' He said. It was hot and sunny out and all of us realized that none of us were hot. K was amused by our revelations. At this point I noticed the dreamy feeling was slowly increasing at a pleasant rate.
[T+1:20]
At this point my entire surroundings were very dream-like. I was beginning to feel a certain 'awe' at how amazing everything is. Colors began to stand out. My entire field of vision began to contrast beautifully more and more. I was very calm and very happy. This wasn't what I expected having heard all the horror stories about the intensities of shrooms.
I was staring at the beauty of a tree with red leaves when I noticed M was sitting on the curb staring at the pavement. He saw me looking at him and he said 'come here.' I did. 'Look at this.' He pointed, and I followed his finger to the pavement. The texture of the pavement swam and danced, like some kind of liquid. It was at this point I realized I was tripping. I went to study some tree bark, having heard wood textures would run like water. Sure enough it did just that.
[T+1:40]
Having hopped on my bike again, and circling in front of everyone else on the curb I felt the urge to go off on my own to explore the rest of the neighborhood. Beauty was overwhelming. Houses, trees, people and cars were all vibrant and beautiful. Everything had an childhood-like innocence. I was overwhelmed with happiness. I simply could not believe how everything 'felt'. I felt no paranoia or insecurity and the excitement I had felt before tripping dissolved into a daydream happiness.
[T+2:00]
It was at this point that I peaked. I was back with my friends at the curb who were in some kind of mushroom ecstasy. K watched us in constant entertainment. J , G and M had decided to stack their bikes on each other. (G threw the bike down ridiculously hard, and we'd learn more of that later on) M decided the bike-pile would make an excellent bed and lay face down on top of it. It looked extremely uncomfortable, but he was loving it. J was also lying down on the street curb. Me and G stood and watched.
At this point nothing defines the elaborateness of my world. Colors were unbelievably defined to the point where I swear I've never seen colors like that in my life before. At this point, not just every person, but every entity had Elmo's Halo (everything radiated beautiful yellowish light). I simply could not believe my mind was able to do such an amazing thing. I saw smoke going up into the sky, it was white with a purple reflection. To this day I don't know if the smoke was from a fire someone was having or if I was seeing it.
[T+2:20]
At this point I'm near the end of my plateau. Our friend L got dropped off having heard we were all together. 'Wow' she said 'You guys are hilarious'. M was sitting in a small roadside tree, beaming at everything. We were all tripping and laughing and talking. After awhile I decided I wanted to escape the 'confusion' (Not that it was really confusing) to go on a bike ride and let my senses soak in everything again. This time G went with me. 'Oh my God' he said as we turned into a particularly beautiful portion of the neighborhood. 'This is SO much better then pot!' I agreed. And it wasn't exactly more 'intense' it was just a whole lot different.
[T+2:30]
Back with everyone else again, I realized I was thirsty. I asked if K could get me a glass of water. She did and I drank half of it and was immediately satisfied.
[T+3:00]
K and L got tired of being outside and wanted to go in. Everyone else agreed but me. I wanted to stay outside. I wish I could have, being outside is much better. Inside I felt confined. Still everything was beautiful.
We sat on a couch and watched resident evil. I couldn't follow it at all. I didn't get into the movie, I wasn't scared by scary monsters. I was much more interested in what was going on around the movie. M was now doing something he called 'couch-diving'. Which was throwing himself between the cushions of the couch. After about his third one he came out with a mouthful of dust-bunnies and that ended it. Couch diving was replaced with placing his cell-phone in his mouth from then on. Unlike myself, permanent fear it seemed, but surprise and excitement. I laughed at him and J looked at me and said 'I know what he means.' I nodded trying not to offend anyone.
[T+4:00]
K's parents where going to be home. And we were still noticeably tripping so she moved us to the basement where there was a much lesser chance of parent confrontation. We watched Willy Wonka. Willy Wonka, is a great movie to watch on mushrooms. K offered us some cookies and G hollered and grabbed some from her hand and ran away fiendishly stuffing them into my mouth.  G looked surprised 'I can't help it!' He looked at M 'I think M's the only one who understands.' I spoke. 'We're all tripping here G.' I took some cookies hoping they'd taste better then normal but sadly they did not.
Later her mom did come down to check on us. I knew my pupils had to be dilated so I kept focus on the movie to avoid eye contact. Still I felt no panic with being around someone who could potentially crash our fun.
[T+5:00]
At this point L, G, J, G and I left K and her house. I went outside hoping to be greeted by the magical world I left, but sadly it was gone. I was coming down. I still felt somewhat dreamy, everything was hazy. We biked to a local Chinese restaurant to buy some candy bars. I felt somewhat stupid, but not in the traditional sense more of a burned-out tired way. It was night by now.
[T+6:00]
Trips over. me and J spent the rest of the night looking for weed (and we considered opium) without success. G realized he had fatally damaged his bike, which was not his. G went home and me and J went back to his house and slept.
[Next Day]
The next day I sort of felt a little out of it, but not really. Not the 'stupid' others defined to me following a trip day. I probably would have had an after glow had I not had to wake up with so little sleep. I went to church with my father and fell asleep twice while kneeling. Haha.
====
====
Overall my trip was amazing. I experienced everything I wanted and more. I felt connection to everything in the universe. A overwhelming joy and beautiful minor hallucinations. There was also a very pleasant connection I felt between me and my friends, spiritual and strong. They all felt it too.
Next time I trip (Which will be very soon) I'm planning on doing double the amount. They are my favorite drug and exactly what I like in a drug: creative inspiration and spiritual development.

One thing about living in the hills is that we are spoilt for things to do in spring. We have an abundance of bulb farms to visit and the girls always delight in such occasions. We pass one on the way home from school and it has become a tradition that we stop and admire the flowering display before arguing over deciding on what bulbs we would like to bring home. It seems some beautiful yellow tulips were the choice this year. Of course there is much skipping, sniffing and ohhhing and arrring as we walk around the rows and rows of pretty blooms. I just step back and try to capture the magic from a distance.

Hancock's Daffodil farm flower display is open to the public in September and is located in Menzies Creek. They are lovely people and it's well worth a visit if you happen to be in the Dandenong Ranges. Jacinta x

As a uSDLC Developer
I want be able to create a stand-alone single jar installation solution
so that I can easily create a new system without additional Internet downloads
The stand-alone version is designed for systems that do not have an Internet or repository connection.
It will unpack both archives - by only over-writing files that are newer in the archive than on disk. This way you can update uSDLC on an existing project safely.
If you don't download the optional jar archive, uSDLC will fetch the jars on demand.
It is possible to create a single executable jar file that exactly reflects the state of uSDLC at this moment. Go to the stand-alone page and run the Snapshot link. The results will be in the /release directory.
It is possible to take a snapshot of the uSDLC tree at any time and create a self-extracting jar file by running this section. It can be copied to any machine with Java installed and run to create a copy of the current system. The same jar can be copied again at any time. When it is run it will update the uSDLC tree by extracting only the newer files.

"\n"; ?> =============================================================================== I guess many peoples calls getLastRequest and it returns nothing. "Heey where is the my last request". Now we will see our request, when you created a SoapClient instance, you should give a option parameter as below : 1); $client=new SoapClient('some.wsdl',$option); try{ $client->aMethodAtRemote(); }catch(SoapFault $fault){ //

, but it gets a bit messy. =============================================================================== Creating an xml file and link to the file is my way. $outputxml = '/output.xml'; file_put_contents($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $outputxml, $client-> __getLastRequest()); echo 'here'; =============================================================================== the getLastResult function doesn't require that the server answers. as my browser handled and hided the xml code I thought the function doesn't return the last request

CustomManualTaskActivity
allows the manual tasks to listen to external events
while waiting for users to complete the tasks.
Please refer to this link for general
description of manual task activities.
EventWaitActivity
to register
the event waits (following this link
for details of event wait registration and other details).
When the task receives an event while waiting for user to complete the task, the task activity can be left in one of the 3 statuses:
To provide custom code handling unsolicited events, you will need to override
processOtherMessage(String message)
.
The method is passed in with one argument, which is the entire message. The default
method does nothing. The completion code after processing the message is configured
in the designer, but you can override it in the code by invoking setReturnCode()
.
CustomManualTaskActivity
also supports task callbacks, which are used in the scenario when the task
instance needs to invoke functionalities through the engine.
The task callbacks work in the following way:
FormServer server = new FormServer(); String response = server.callEngine(request, taskInstanceId, timeoutSeconds);
String processTaskCallRequest(String request)
. The method
should typically be overridden to extract data from the request message
into process variables, and returns a completion code.RESUME:Callback
,
and the preceding activity must return this as its completion code
(or, it returns null completion code and there is not an outgoing transition
without label - MDW will follow any transitions with RESUME labels
in this case).String processTaskCallResponse()
, which should be overridden
to construct a response message.callEngine()
method made in the first step above.


Have you ever thought about
that you are being manipulated by something?
Have you ever changed your favorite section or interest recently? Have you ever watch something not intendedly? Have you ever chose to focus on latest news actually? or Have you ever give away your extra time to watch something fun accidently?
What if you are doing something in the way whatever you choose, but that someting is actually exquisitely sorted by someone? What if you are actively selecting what to watch but you are passively watching something which is the most viewed post or video?
I watched a movie that has been like a lifelong homework.
Every time I renew my to-watch-list, this movie has been never gone away. More of that the movie seems too serious to play than it was very important for me. I don’t know why but I have put this off as long as I can and finally I saw the end.
Is it because I saw this movie right after watching a Documentary named ‘/the Social Dilemma’? The movie, ‘Children of Men’ was too realistic to me. While I am living the era of COVID-19, each of ‘/the Social Dilemma’ and ‘Children of Men’ has seemed to raise the issues for the foreseeable future and to show the consequences as the issues are actually presented.
The Documentary, ‘/the Social Dilemma’ and the Movie, ‘Children of Men’ give us two ideas as below:
a) Freedom of access to information should be guaranteed?
b) Everyone has a right to freedom of expression?
Freedom of access to information
Freedom of access to information-also known as the reason of existence of public library- is very basic human rights and the opportunity of learning. In the case of corporations which provide Search Engine, they cannot delete and censor any information and search results as they like because of this huge and sensitive reason. This policy is applied to the Search Engine of South Korea as well. To the company which delivers not only source and materials but News and current issues in South Korea such as Naver and Kakao corp, it has more impact than just policy that we can imagine. Above all, the freedom of access to information would be my first preposition from entire my twenties till now and I guess that is why this question was poped up after watching the film.
‘Freedom of Access to Information’
‘/the Social Dilemma’ tells us that the ambitious motive which is started revolutionarily to make better place for human let people do how many things without any ethical responsibilities. In this Documentary, the design ethicist, Tristan Harris appeals that current Social Media including other services is developing in the least human friendly way.
When UX(User Experience) designers project and update certain services and functions, they consider how this service and function can keep or maintain ‘Retention’. I personally agree with the idea which ‘well-designed service’ should be based on ‘Retention Data’, because valuable service means that users don’t leave the platform or play around in the service for certain time. In this criterion, Retention data is meaningful. However, it also cannot be ignored that the Retention time of users in Social Media have very closely to do with profit of corporation.
Data equals Profit
Although some corporations and some people accessed to this data for providing better service, they cannot disregard obsession of ‘Retention and Conversion Data’ to maintain long-lasting business. Tristan Harris assert that at this point, human unfriendly UX(User Experience) is designed.
In fact, it looks very ideal that the company can make profits in the middle of devising better service. But how middle is that?
‘Without leaving a certain service, they make people browse and play long or make them back to service in a short time, like right after hand over the mobile.’
In this point, the addiction can be started and such strategies can be fatally dangerous to teenagers. The one of the most typical example is infinitive scrolling of Facebook.
The internet services which let people easily and swiftly access to information made people who have common interest exchange their opinions and information without any barriers and deliver latest news faster than ever. It exposes us to tremendous information at the same time. Furthermore, the knowledge that people can read and learn from books and experts, can be accessed in real time and if you cannot absorb these in time, sooner or later you are gonna be ‘outdated’. Meanwhile, people have been transferred unconsciously from the era that they ‘search’ what they want at Search Engines to the era that they are ‘dived’ to enormous information for themselves. In oder not to be outdated and sometimes just for fun.
The desire that people want information as much as possible has positive function, of course.
However, when we make ourselves throw into information, what does the company which runs such service pursue at the same time?
Stimulation by psychology comes with Addiction
Facebook feeds, pages of Chrome, contents of Instagram and etc. let us expose to tremendous information under the name of Algorithms. In the middle of these information, the advertisement exists which is based on that we agreed with collecting our information unconsciously. The value of this advertisement is assigned according to the ‘Retention and Conversion data’. It is not illegal in current law, because of our unconscious agreement. Corporations make users consume contents which more people clicked and watched in order to expose to advertisement for long, actively and frequently. It is sometimes very useful, but selecting contents according to the Algorithms as the purpose above make users encounter sometimes excessively provocative or fake information regardless of user’s age and state.
Algorithms cannot be good or bad itself. It operates exactly in accordance with how people design. However, it is also true that operation of mechanical Algorithms bring blind spot as above. Algorithms cannot decide something itself as reflecting ethical standards. This is why intervention of people is required in Social Media.
That is, management of corporation pursuing profitability can often drive users to where they have never imagined not intentionally, but eventually.
then, is this service ethically relevant?
If they did not intend this on purpose, then they don’t have any responsibility for the result that such flow of information has brought? The users have their own responsibility by themselves, because they connected to the service with their own will in terms of Freedom of Access to Information?
‘Freedom of Access to Information’ gives users the opportunity of learning and freedom of choice at the same time. That is why users can shut down or delete the service whenever they don’t want to use. Under this freedom of chice, it seems that so many questions are forgiven. However, learned addiction by particular functions such as infinitive scroll cloud user’s judgement quite easily.
Is it ever true that people can shut down the Freedom of Access by themselves anytime?
The necessity of intervention in access to information of Internet starts with this as ethical standards and regulations are required to maintain society and to transfer to civilised society.
‘Is this censoring Information?’
I mean that there is a reason that we should move forward from this question. The reason can be found at the process of answering b).
Before that, I want to note that the right that anyone can speech and express freely can sometimes make these Algorithms more fatal.
You can say that,
“Come on, how could it be so bad? How bad things could we take?”
This theme continues in Civilising Information-2).


Basic Syntax
This website uses kramdown
as the basic syntax. However, a lot of html/css/js has been applied to generate some certain contents or styles.
Math also follows the kramdown
syntax.
Notes div
Please beware that with markdown="1"
the content and div tags have to be on different lines.
Figure with Caption
Please determine the path of the image according to the path of the post itself. Otherwise, an absolute path can be specified,
![](http://localhost:4000/assets/programming/chrome-dev-tools-inspect.png)
where http://localhost:4000
is the configured url of the site.
Alternatively, we can use the set attributes syntax in kramdown.
The results shows as a paragraph with the corresponding class. Notice that this only works for one paragraph.
This is a paragraph with some class. The class is specified in the end of the paragraph.
Table of Contents
is used to generate table of contents.
Footnote
Syntax for footnotes is elaborated more on the website of kramdown.

This post is to enable Page Views on the Chirpy theme based blog that you just built. This requires technical knowledge and it’s recommended to keep the google_analytics.pv.*
empty unless you have a good reason. If your website has low traffic, the page views count would discourage you to write more blogs. With that said, let’s start with the setup.
Set up Google Analytics
Create GA account and property
First, you need to set up your account on Google analytics. While you create your account, you must create your first Property as well.
- Head to https://analytics.google.com/ and click on Start Measuring
- Enter your desired Account Name and choose the desired checkboxes
- Enter your desired Property Name. This is the name of the tracker project that appears on your Google Analytics dashboard
- Enter the required information About your business
- Hit Create and accept any license popup to set up your Google Analytics account and create your property
Create Data Stream
With your property created, you now need to set up Data Stream to track your blog traffic. After you signup, the prompt should automatically take you to create your first Data Stream. If not, follow these steps:
- Go to Admin on the left column
- Select the desired property from the drop-down on the second column
- Click on Data Streams
- Add a stream and click on Web
- Enter your blog’s URL
It should look like this:
Now, click on the new data stream and grab the Measurement ID. It should look something like G-V6XXXXXXXX
. Copy this to your _config.yml
file
1
2
3
4
5
6
google_analytics:
id: 'G-V6XXXXXXX' # fill in your Google Analytics ID
# Google Analytics pageviews report settings
pv:
proxy_endpoint: # fill in the Google Analytics superProxy endpoint of Google App Engine
cache_path: # the local PV cache data, friendly to visitors from GFW region
When you push these changes to your blog, you should start seeing the traffic on your Google Analytics. Play around with the Google Analytics dashboard to get familiar with the options available as it takes like 5 mins to pick up your changes. You should now be able to monitor your traffic in real time.
Setup Page Views
There is a detailed tutorial available to set up Google Analytics superProxy. But, if you are interested to just quickly get your Chirpy-based blog display page views, follow along. These steps were tested on a Linux machine. If you are running Windows, you can use the Git bash terminal to run Unix-like commands.
Setup Google App Engine
-
Click on Create Application
-
Click on Create Project
-
Enter the name and choose the data center close to you
-
Select Python language and Standard environment
-

src/app.yaml
file:1 2
- application: your-project-id - version: 1
-
In
src/config.py
, add theOAUTH_CLIENT_ID
andOAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET
that you gathered from your App Engine Dashboard. -
Enter any random key for
XSRF_KEY

#!/usr/bin/python2.7 __author__ =<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(Pete Frisella)' # OAuth 2.0 Client Settings AUTH_CONFIG = { 'OAUTH_CLIENT_ID': 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID', 'OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET': 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET', 'OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI': '%s%s' % ( 'https://chirpy-test-XXXXXX.ue.r.appspot.com', '/admin/auth' ) } # XSRF Settings XSRF_KEY = 'OnceUponATimeThereLivedALegend'
Tip: You can configure a custom domain instead of
https://PROJECT_ID.REGION_ID.r.appspot.com
. But, for the sake of keeping it simple, we will be using the Google provided default URL. -
From inside the src/ directory, deploy the app

If everything went good, you’ll get this screen:
Create Google Analytics Query
Head to https://PROJECT_ID.REGION_ID.r.appspot.com/admin
and create a query after verifying the account. GA Core Reporting API query request can be created in Query Explorer.
The query parameters are as follows:
- start-date: fill in the first day of blog posting
- end-date: fill in
today
(this is a parameter supported by GA Report, which means that it will always end according to the current query date) - metrics: select
ga:pageviews
- dimensions: select
ga:pagePath
In order to reduce the returned results and reduce the network bandwidth, we add custom filtering rules 1:
-
filters: fill in
ga:pagePath=~^/posts/.*/$;ga:pagePath!@=
.Among them,
;
means using logical AND to concatenate two rules.If the
site.baseurl
is specified, change the first filtering rule toga:pagePath=~^/BASE_URL/posts/.*/$
, whereBASE_URL
is the value ofsite.baseurl
.
After Run Query, copy the generated contents of API Query URI at the bottom of the page and fill in the Encoded URI for the query of SuperProxy on GAE.
After the query is saved on GAE, a Public Endpoint (public access address) will be generated, and we will get the query result in JSON format when accessing it. Finally, click Enable Endpoint in Public Request Endpoint to make the query effective, and click Start Scheduling in Scheduling to start the scheduled task.
Configure Chirpy to Display Page View
Once all the hard part is done, it is very easy to enable the Page View on Chirpy theme. Your superProxy dashboard should look something like below and you can grab the required values.
Update the _config.yml
file of Chirpy project with the values from your dashboard, to look similar to the following:
1
2
3
4
5
google_analytics:
id: 'G-V6XXXXXXX' # fill in your Google Analytics ID
pv:
proxy_endpoint: 'https://PROJECT_ID.REGION_ID.r.appspot.com/query?id=<ID FROM SUPER PROXY>'
cache_path: # the local PV cache data, friendly to visitors from GFW region
Now, you should see the Page View enabled on your blog.
