Task: Implement a basic hash table without collision resolution.
[X] Implement a HashTable
class and HashTableEntry
class.
[X] Implement a good hashing function (DJB2 & FNV-1 (64-bit)).
You are allowed to Google for these hashing functions and implement from psuedocode.
[X] Implement the hash_index()
that returns an index value fBor a key.
[X] Implement the put()
, get()
, and delete()
methods.
You can test this with:
python test_hashtable_no_collisions.py
The above test program is unlikely to have collisions, but it’s certainly possible for various hashing functions. With DJB2 (32 bit) and FNV-1 (64 bit) hashing functions, there are no collisions.
Task: Implement linked-list chaining for collision resolution.
[X] Modify put()
, get()
, and delete()
methods to handle collisions.
[X] There is no step 2.
You can test this with:
python test_hashtable.py
Task: Implement load factor measurements and automatic hashtable size doubling.
[X] Compute and maintain load factor.
[X] When load factor increases above 0.7
, automatically rehash the table to double its previous size.
[X] Add the resize()
method.
You can test this with both of:
python test_hashtable.py
python test_hashtable_resize.py
0.2
, automatically rehash the table to half its previous size, down to a minimum of 8 slots.Work on the hashtable applications directory (in any order you wish–generally arranged from easier to harder, below).
For these, you can use either the built-in dict
type, or the hashtable you built. (Some of these are easier with dict
since it’s more full-featured.)


CVS-SWITCHROOT(1) BSD General Commands Manual CVS-SWITCHROOT(1) NAME cvs-switchroot — change repository or tag in a cvs working copy SYNOPSIS cvs-switchroot [-T] newroot [file ...] cvs-switchroot [-T] - srcpath [file ...] DESCRIPTION The cvs-switchroot utility manipulates a CVS working copy directly, modify‐ ing the information stored in the administrative subdirectory and saving space by hardlinking if possible. If the -T option is given, the sticky tag is operated on, otherwise, the repository path (CVSROOT). The information (Tag or Root) is set to the same as in srcpath if the first non-option argument newroot is a sole dash (‘-’), the literal value newroot otherwise. EXAMPLES Change all Root information in the current sandbox to /cvs: $ cvs-switchroot /cvs . Set all roots in the current working directory and all its subdirectories to the Root of the parent directory: $ cvs-switchroot - .. . Hardlink the Tag information in the current working directory, for example /usr/src, and /usr/ports with each other: $ cvs-switchroot -T - . . /usr/ports SEE ALSO cvs(1) HISTORY cvs-switchroot has existed in the MirBSD source tree since 2005. It was added to Debian's cvs package in 2011. CAVEATS cvs-switchroot depends on mksh. BSD June 10, 2011 BSD

What the FFI?!
Josh Cartwright
Austin Haskell Users Group
November 24, 2014
Foreign Function Interface
... its aim is to support the implementation of programs in a mixture of Haskell and other languages such that the source code is portable across different implementations of Haskell and non-Haskell systems as well as independent of the architecture and operating system.
We all know that Haskell will take over the world. Static types will solve all of the worlds problems. In a few years, we'll be in a Haskell-driven utopia.
Unfortunately, until we get there, Haskell exists as part of a larger software ecosystem. In order for Haskell to be most useful in this environment, it needs to be adapted to allow intercall/interoperability with code not written in Haskell ("Foreign") code.
The Foreign Function Interface (FFI) is a specification/extension of Haskell syntax that allows for describing an interface to this "Foreign" code. It came into existance as a GHC extension to allow for calling C code, but has since been part of the Haskell 2010 report, and adopted with other Haskell compilers to interact with languages other than C.
Or, in GIF form:
Goal: implement a simple C binding
Assumption: already familiar with Haskell syntax
Assumption: already familiar with Haskell typeclasses
The FFI is a big topic, one that I could not possibly describe in it's entirety during this presentation. Instead, I'll be focusing attention on one "vertical slice", calling a C function from haskell. This will allow me to cover the "big" pieces, if your interested in learning more, see the references on the last slide.
With this in mind, the hope is that I can explain how to do this, even if you don't necessarily have a background in C. With that, let's cover at least some C basics:
C: Primitive types
char
int
short int
long int
long long int
float
double
C defines a handful of primitive types. char, int, short int, long int, and long long int, are integral types, they represent integers. Their types can be modified with the keyword "unsigned", meaning that the values are all >0.
C: Pointers
C: Pointers
int *example1;
double *example2;
double **example3;
In addition to primitive types, C supports the concept of a "pointer". I won't be going into too many details about pointers, but I will state that a pointer represents an address in memory, which points to something with a specific type.
C: Strings
char *example4;
In C, strings are are represented as a series of single byte characters, followed by a null byte.
What I intend to demonstrate here is that example4, while being declared as a "pointer to char", it may in fact point to an array of characters. This will become important later.
C: struct
struct day {
unsigned int month;
unsigned int day;
unsigned int year;
};
struct student {
char *name;
struct day birthday;
};
struct student john = {
.name = "John Smith" ,
.birthday = {
.month = 11 ,
.day = 24 ,
.year = 1972 ,
},
};
From the primitive types and pointers, you can construct more complicated types, such as these two, 'struct day' and 'struct student'. A 'struct' is effectively a poor man's product type. An object of type 'struct day' is a tuple with members 'month' of type 'unsigned int' and 'day' also of type 'unsigned int'.
A struct may also contain another, as shown with 'struct student'. In this case, an object of type 'struct student' contains a pointer to a char and also 'birthday' which is of type 'struct day'.
Lastly, here's an example of the declaration of an object of struct student named 'john'.
struct day {
unsigned int month;
unsigned int day;
unsigned int year;
};
struct student {
char *name;
struct day birthday;
};
import Foreign.C.Types
data Day = Day { month :: CUInt
, day :: CUInt
, year :: CUInt
}
deriving (Show )
data Student = Student { name :: String
, birthday :: Day
}
deriving (Show )
The data types from the C API and the Haskell equivalent.
Primitive type mapping
char
CChar
CUChar
int
CInt
CUInt
short int
CShort
CUShort
long int
CLong
CULong
long long int
CLLong
CULLong
float
CFloat
N/A
double
CDouble
N/A
As seen on the previous page, Foreign.C.Types defines a few types which correspond to their C equivalents. Here is a more complete table.
C: Functions
struct student *get_student(unsigned int id);
void update_student(unsigned int id, struct student *s);
Along with types, C also has functions, and they are declared as follows.
The first function is named 'get_student', and accepts as an argument an unsigned int. It returns a pointer to an object of type 'struct student'.
In the second case, a function named 'update_student' accepts an unsigned integer and a pointer to an object of type 'struct student' and returns nothing (void).
struct student *get_student(unsigned int id);
void update_student(unsigned int id, struct student *s);
{-# LANGUAGE ForeignFunctionInterface #-}
foreign import ccall "get_student"
c_get_student :: CUInt -> IO (Ptr Student )
foreign import ccall "update_student"
c_update_student :: CUInt -> Ptr Student -> IO ()
And for the function mappings.
Here we see for the first time a few keywords, these keywords are available when you've enabled the ForeignFunctionInterface language extension: - foreign : indicates that this function is visible externally to haskell - import : indicates that this function is being imported, that is, it's being used by Haskell and is defined in C - ccall: indicates the calling convention used to call this function
In addition, there is a String
argument which is used to give the corresponding name known to C, the name of this identifier in Haskell, and the function type.
So, we've got these Ptr Students floating around, how are we expected to make use of them?
class Storable a where
sizeOf :: a -> Int
alignment :: a -> Int
peek :: Ptr a -> IO a
poke :: Ptr a -> a -> IO ()
A type which implements Storable means that it's capable of being converted to/from an unstructured memory buffer.
This typeclass is defined in Foreign.Storable
data Day = Day { month :: CUInt , day :: CUInt , year :: CUInt }
deriving (Show )
instance Storable Day where
sizeOf _ = 12
alignment _ = 4
peek ptr = do
m <- peekByteOff ptr 0
d <- peekByteOff ptr 4
y <- peekByteOff ptr 8
return (Day m d y)
poke ptr (Day m d y) = do
pokeByteOff ptr 0 m
pokeByteOff ptr 4 d
pokeByteOff ptr 8 y
peekByteOff :: Storable a => Ptr b -> Int -> IO a
pokeByteOff :: Storable a => Ptr b -> Int -> a -> IO ()
data Student = Student { name :: String , birthday :: Day }
deriving (Show )
instance Storable Student where
sizeOf _ = 24
alignment _ = 8
peek ptr = do
np <- peekByteOff ptr 0
n <- peekCString np
d <- peekByteOff ptr 8
return (Student n d)
poke ptr (Student n d) = withCString n $ \nameptr -> do
pokeByteOff ptr 0 nameptr
pokeByteOff ptr 8 d
withCString :: String -> (CString -> IO a) -> IO a
NOTE : This usage of withCString is wrong ! We end up writing a pointer to the 'struct student' object which becomes invalid/potentially freed after the poke! The correct way to do this might be to use ForeignPtr. (This note added after the presentation given).
get_student :: CUInt -> IO Student
get_student n = c_get_student n >>= peek
c_update_student :: CUInt -> Ptr Student -> IO ()
update_student :: CUInt -> Student -> IO ()
Recall the type of c_update_student. Just like the get_student example, we'll want to create a higher-level update_student API which makes things a bit easier. But, how would we implement this? We need to somehow get an instance of Ptr Student...
import Foreign.Marshal.Alloc (alloca)
alloca :: Storable a => (Ptr a -> IO b) -> IO b
How do we use this thing?
import Foreign.Marshal.Alloc (alloca)
update_student :: CUInt -> Student -> IO ()
update_student n s = alloca $ \ptr -> do
poke ptr s
c_update_student n ptr
Here, we are creating a update_student function which a much more convenient type to work with. Under the hood we make use of alloca to get a handle on a buffer large enough to hold a Student object.
We then make use of the Student Storable instance to write a Student object into this buffer and call the imported c_update_student.
The End. Thanks!

LWC components with self contained images
When you create your LWC components, it is easy to include Salesforce predefined icons using lightning-icon
. However once you need a custom icon, you point to an external URL, breaking the self containment. Unless you use url(data:)
. Here is what I did
A scalable check mark
For a list selection component I wanted a green check mark, like the picture above, indicate a selected record (more on the component in a later post). Since LWC doesn't allow (yet?) to store image assets inside a bundle and I wanted the component to be self contained.
The solution is to use data:image/svg+xml
for a background image. The details were nicely outlined in css-tricks. I tried to use svg as source code directly, but failed to get it to work. So I resorted to use base64
. It is an additional step, using an online Base64 encoder.
Making images
SVG is just an XML based text format, so you could create your image in notepad (take that jpg!). However you probably want to use a graphic editor. My choice here is Sketch (which gives me funny looks from designers: why a developer uses one of their tools). There were some steps worth to mention:
- When using text (like the check mark), convert that to a svg path. Right click on text and select "Convert to outlines". This allows the text to scale with the rest of the image
- Use the Edit-Copy-Copy SVG Code rather than use the export functionality
- The resulting SVG is "talkative", you can edit and remove quite some content:
- remove width and height attributes from the
<svg>
element, but keep the viewbox. Also remove the xlink name space - the
<g>
element doesn't need any attribute <polygon>
only needsfill
andpoints
attribute- All numeric values have many digits. You can round them up

Main content page count |
The highest-numbered page in a single numbered sequence of main content, usually the highest Arabic-numbered page in a book;
or, for books without page numbers or (rarely) with multiple numbered sequences of main content, the total number of pages
that carry the main content of the book. Note that this may include numbered but otherwise blank pages (eg pages inserted
to ensure chapters start on a recto page) and may exclude unnumbered (but contentful) pages such as those in inserts/plate
sections. Either this or the Content Page count is the preferred page count for most books for the general reader. For books
with substantial front and/or back matter, include also Front matter and Back matter page counts, or Total numbered pages.
For books with inserts (plate sections), also include Total unnumbered insert page count whenever possible.

Number of words |
Number of words of natural language text. |
| 03 |
Front matter page count |
The total number of numbered (usually Roman-numbered) pages that precede the main content of a book. This usually consists
of various title and imprint pages, table of contents, an introduction, preface, foreword, etc.
|
| 04 |
Back matter page count |
The total number of numbered (usually Roman-numbered) pages that follow the main content of a book. This usually consists

Can we decide once and for all which one is better in which circumstances?
A definite argument for Type u

When compiled, both branches are wrapped in arrays. As a result, the array branch is turned into a two-dimensional array, which may indicate a problem.
The quick-fix wraps the non-array branch in an array to prevent the compiler from doing the conversion.
Example:
static void bar(boolean flag) {
Object[] a = {1, 2};
Object b = "hello";
foo(flag ? a : b);
}
static void foo(Object... obj) {
}
After the quick-fix:
static void bar(boolean flag) {
Object[] a = {1, 2};
Object b = "hello";
foo(flag ? a : new Object[]{b});
}
static void foo(Object... obj) {
}

Hosting
In this 12th part of this series, I’m going to write about how to customize hosting in ASP.NET Core. We will look into the hosting options, different kind of hosting and a quick look into hosting on the IIS. And while writing this post this again seems to get a long one.
This will change in ASP.NET Core 3.0. I anyway decided to do this post about ASP.NET Core 2.2 because it still needs some time until ASP.NET Core 3.0 is released.
This post is just an overview bout the different kind of application hosting. It is surely possible to go a lot more into the details for each topic, but this would increase the size of this post a lot and I need some more topics for future blog posts ;-)
Quick setup
For this series we just need to setup a small empty web application.
dotnet new web -n ExploreHosting -o ExploreHosting
That’s it. Open it with Visual Studio Code:
cd ExploreHosting
code .
And voila, we get a simple project open in VS Code:
WebHostBuilder
Like in the last post, we will focus on the Program.cs
. The WebHostBuilder
is our friend. This is where we configure and create the web host. The next snippet is the default configuration of every new ASP.NET Core web we create using File => New => Project
in Visual Studio or dotnet new
with the .NET CLI:
public class Program
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
CreateWebHostBuilder(args).Build().Run();
}
public static IWebHostBuilder CreateWebHostBuilder(string[] args) =>
WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
.UseStartup<Startup>();
}
As we already know from the previous posts the default build has all the needed stuff pre-configured. All you need to run an application successfully on Azure or on an on-premise IIS is configured for you.
But you are able to override almost all of this default configurations. Also the hosting configuration.
Kestrel
After the WebHostBuilder
is created we can use various functions to configure the builder. Here we already see one of them, which specifies the Startup
class that should be used. In the last post we saw the UseKestrel
method to configure the Kestrel options:
.UseKestrel((host, options) =>
{
// ...
})
Reminder: Kestrel is one possibility to host your application. Kestrel is a web server built in .NET and based on .NET socket implementations. Previously it was built on top of libuv, which is the same web server that is used by NodeJS. Microsoft removes the dependency to libuv and created an own web server implementation based on .NET sockets.
Docs: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/servers/kestrel
This first argument is a WebHostBuilderContext
to access already configured hosting settings or the configuration itself. The second argument is an object to configure Kestrel. This snippet shows what we did in the last post to configure the socket endpoints where the host needs to listen to:
.UseKestrel((host, options) =>
{
var filename = host.Configuration.GetValue("AppSettings:certfilename", "");
var password = host.Configuration.GetValue("AppSettings:certpassword", "");
options.Listen(IPAddress.Loopback, 5000);
options.Listen(IPAddress.Loopback, 5001, listenOptions =>
{
listenOptions.UseHttps(filename, password);
});
})
This will override the default configuration where you are able to pass in URLs, eg. using the applicationUrl
property of the launchSettings.json
or an environment variable.
HTTP.sys
Do you know that there is another hosting option? A different web server implementation? It is HTTP.sys. This is a pretty mature library deep within Windows that can be used to host your ASP.NET COre application.
.UseHttpSys(options =>
{
// ...
})
The HTTP.sys is different to Kestrel. It cannot be used in IIS because it is not compatible with the ASP.NET Core Module for IIS.
The main reason to use HTTP.sys instead of Kestrel is Windows Authentication which cannot be used in Kestrel only. Another reason is, if you need to expose it to the internet without the IIS.
Also the IIS is running on top of HTTP.sys for years. Which means UseHttpSys()
and IIS are using the same web server implementation. To learn more about HTTP.sys please read the docs.
Hosting on IIS
An ASP.NET Core Application shouldn’t be directly exposed to the internet, even if it’s supported for even Kestrel or the HTTP.sys. It would be the best to have something like a reverse proxy in between or at least a service that watches the hosting process. For ASP.NET Core the IIS isn’t only a reverse proxy. It also takes care of the hosting process in case it brakes because of an error or whatever. It’ll restart the process in that case. Also Nginx may be used as an reverse proxy on Linux that also takes care of the hosting process.
To host an ASP.NET Core web on an IIS or on Azure you need to publish it first. Publishing doesn’t only compiles the project. It also prepares the project to host it on IIS, on Azure or on an webserver on Linux like Nginx.
dotnet publish -o ..\published -r win32-x64
This produces an output that can be mapped in the IIS. It also creates a web.config to add settings for the IIS or Azure. It contains the compiled web application as a DLL.
If you publish a self-contained application it also contains the runtime itself. A self-contained application brings it’s own .NET Core runtime, but the size of the delivery increases a lot.
And on the IIS? Just create a new web and map it to the folder where you placed the published output:
It get’s a little more complicated if you need to change the security, if you have some database connections and so on. This would be a topic for a separate blog post. But in this small sample it simply works:
This is the output of the small Middleware in the startup.cs
of the demo project:
app.Run(async (context) =>
{
await context.Response.WriteAsync("Hello World!");
});
Nginx
Unfortunately I cannot write about Nginx, because I don’t have a running Linux currently to play around with it. This is one of the many future projects I have. I just got ASP.NET Core running on Linux using the Kestrel webserver.
Conclusion
ASP.NET Core and the .NET CLI already contain all the tools to get it running on various platforms and to set it up to get it ready for Azure and the IIS, as well as Nginx. This is super easy and well described in the docs.
I’ll definitely go deeper into some of the topics and in ASP.NET Core there are some pretty cool hosting features that make it a lot more flexible to host your application:
Currently we have the WebHostBuilder
that creates the hosting environment of the applications. In 3.0 we get the HostBuilder
that is able to create a hosting environment that is completely independent from any web context. I’m going to write about the HostBuilder
in one of the next blog posts.

The gallbladder is a small organ that will fit in the palm of your hand, and stores a liquid called bile. When you eat, the gallbladder receives a signal to release the stored bile. The bile flows through a duct and empties into the small intestine to mix with the food you've eaten. It helps to absorb the necessary fat that's in the food. The liver, which makes the bile, also stores it and releases it when you eat.
Gallbladder symptoms range from mild, upper abdominal discomfort, indigestion, and nausea after eating, to severe upper abdominal pain that will penetrate into the back near the right shoulder blade. Sometimes the pain can be below the breast bone and seem like a heart attack. The usual cause of the symptoms are gallstones that form inside the gallbladder, and will intermittently interfere with the normal functions of the gallbladder. The severe pain is caused by a gallstone obstructing the neck of the gallbladder(the narrowest portion) where the biles drains out into the bile duct.
Other problems that are caused by gallstones include pancreatitis, an inflammation of the pancreas gland, and jaundice, congestion of the liver. These two problems can occur when gallstones flow out of the gallbladder and lodge in the bile duct that empties the bile into the small intestine.
The treatment for gallbladder disease is surgery. Minimal or laparoscopic surgery is the method of choice. This type of surgery uses a video camera placed through a small incision at the navel, and then three more small incisions are made near the lower edge of the right side of the ribcage. The surgery is then performed by watching the gallbladder on a viewing screens placed above and beside the operating table. It is similar to playing a video game in that you make your movements based on what you see on the screen, rather than making a large opening in the skin and looking directly at the gallbladder. After surgery, most patients feel well enough to go home and come back to the office for followup.
Laparoscopic surgery allows for a quicker recovery than traditional surgery. Most patients can return to work within five to fourteen days, and do not have to change their diet. Occasionally, some patients will have loose stools from a meal that has a high fat content.

I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been…
— Wayne Gretzky
Situations are structured parts of the world. A situation can be thought of as a limited view of reality. Situation awareness is therefore a state of knowledge that strives to understand the reality to form as accurate a view and understanding as possible. It involves forming an awareness of the who, what, when and where of a given situation.
A key concept of SA are the building blocks or puzzle pieces that together form the picture.
In simple terms, SA is knowing what is going on so I can figure out what to do.
Situational awareness is considered to have four levels of progressive capability and maturity:
SA most often involves critical operational activities and serves as the basis for decision-making. SA has high demands for performance, where limits of capability may result in serious consequences.
Entity Knowledge Fidelity
How accurate is the understanding of an entity or relationship correspond to the ground truth reality.
System Knowledge Fidelity
How accurate is the composite understanding of entities, their behaviors, and relations compared to the ground truth reality.
Operational Value
The value of a situation estimate element measures how well the element meets the needs of a particular user and his/her application.
Cost of Loss or Gain
The utility of a situation estimate element weighs the value of the element against the cost of producing the element.


Plus-sized reality show star prevented from travelling to Dubai because of her size
- A Ghanaian plus-sized reality star, Precious Mensah, has shared the reason behind her not travelling to Dubai
- Precious popularly called PM won the Atinka FM’s plus-sized show, Di-Asa, and was meant to travel to Dubai as part of the prize
- PM was, however, unable to travel due to her big size
Popular Ghanaian reality show star, Precious Mensah also known as PM, recently won the Atinka FM’s plus-sized show, Di-Asa, to the joy of fans on social media.
Mensah was also meant to travel to Dubai with the runner-ups on the show as part of the prize but unfortunately missed out on the lifetime opportunity.
According to reports, Mensah had already checked in her luggage at the airport but was prevented from boarding the flight due to her big size.
In an interview with Yen.com.gh, Mensah revealed that she felt really bad when she could not travel with her friends and that if she had made the trip, it would have been her first time outside the country.

Overview
Custom decks allow the player to personalize their experience. They can pick and choose cards to play with from any deck they have unlocked.Card Images
To create a deck, you will need to create images for your cards. The editor will not help you with this. Cards should have a 3:4 aspect ratio and their file names should be in the form <suit><rank>.png from 1-13 for each suit. Examples:| File Name | Card |
| heart2 | 2 of Hearts |
| clubs8 | 8 of Clubs |
| diamo12 | Queen of Diamonds |
| spade1 | Ace of Spades |
These images should be placed in a folder under the img directory. If desired, you can make different sets of card fronts for the same deck in the same folder by using a NUMBERLESS prefix (ex. a_heart1.png, b_heart1.png). It's possible to make partial sets (ex. only hearts and diamonds) or partial ranks (ex. only face cards).
Creating a Deck
In the toolbar, go to Decks... and type the key for your new deck. The name of the folder you put your images in is a good choice. Click Create to create the new deck.Editing a Deck

FELICIA'S JOURNEY
Reviewed by Harvey Karten Artisan Entertainment Director: Atom Egoyan Writer: Atom Egoyan from a novel by William Trevor Cast: Claire Benedict, Brid Brennan, Elaine Cassidy, Sidney Cole, Bob Hoskins, Arsinee Khanjian, Peter McDonald, Gerard McSorley, Danny Turner
The terrible price that individuals from dysfunctional families must sometimes pay has been a favorite topic of playwrights and other writers since the Greeks. Clytemnestra kills her husband for coming home with a fortune teller. Medea murders her two children to punish her straying husband. Hamlet kills his uncle for the murder of Hamlet's father. In more recent times, Sam Mendes electrified the film world with "American Beauty," about the ultimate price that Lester Burnham pays soon after his loins are inflamed by a high-school cheerleader. But few contemporary films delve into the depths of loneliness and despair as sincerely as "Felicia's Journey." The movie centers on an otherwise gentle, unremarkable person whose conflicted relationship with his mother turns him into a serial killer.
"Felicia's Journey," an adaptation of William Trevor's quiet thriller of the same name, is the story of an association between two people who are of different ages and from diverse backgrounds but who share a pattern of self-delusion that drives each of them to obsessive behavior. For the younger of the pair, the fixation is painful to bear, like the anguish felt by a betrayed lover in Victor Hugo's "The Story of Adele H." For the more mature individual, the lifelong yearning for connection leads to serial murder, to a progression of crimes of which the killer has no memory.
The titled Felicia of the story has taken a journey from a remote village in Ireland's County Cork to the highly industrialized English city of Birmingham. More important is her psychological excursion, from the naivete of a guileless young woman to a person who becomes aware of the ways of the world and reconciles herself to the reality. Joseph Ambrose Hilditch, a catering manager in a large Birmingham factory, takes a similar journey of self-realization, and while his outcome is not as sunny, he is at last able to come to terms with his true nature.
The film is written and directed by the remarkable Atom Egoyan. Egoyan set the movie-mavens' world on fire two seasons ago with "The Sweet Hereafter," about a tenacious lawyer who travels to a remote Canadian village trying to sign up the survivors of a terrible bus accident which took the lives of many children. Like that elliptical tale with its many flashbacks and dream-like sequences, "Felicia's Journey" takes a patient, methodical approach, with frequent closeups to the faces of the two principals evoking the complex, mostly confused, emotions that they feel. Essentially a two-character story, the movie never has the claustrophobic feel of a filmed play because Egoyan leaves his native Canada for the first time to cast his camera's lens across the expansive greenery of rural Ireland, which he contrasts with the smoldering smokestacks and the ominous nuclear power plant of a nightmarishly industrialized Midlands city. Similarly, he displays the bustle of everyday life as seen by one character and suddenly swaps scenes to portray the commotion in the life of the other.
Until we become aware of the monster that inhabits the soul of Joseph Hilditch (Bob Hoskins), we cannot help liking him. He's a roly-poly man, a catering manager in a large food factory who is not only well-liked by his employees but highly respected for his opinions about the food which they prepare. Their affection for him is not difficult to understand: in one scene he gently chastises a man who is trying to sell him a machine that can do everything that a series of cooks now perform, but Hilditch would not think of firing human beings, whose preparation of food is an act of love to the diners. Hilditch lives in a large house by himself, preparing his own dinners under the videotaped instruction of a TV chef, Gala (Arsinee Khanjian), who we learn is his mother-- whose 1950s programs now exist in the extensive library of tapes that Hilditch maintains along with far more sinister videos.
His loneliness comes to a temporary halt when he runs into a similarly forsaken person, the young Felicia (Elaine Cassidy), who has been seduced and impregnated by a young man, Johnny (Peter McDonald), and whom she now seeks in Birmingham. Since he did not leave her his address, she depends on the kindness of the strange Hilditch to help her find the boy, and the connection that Hilditch and Felicia enjoy temporarily lifts both from their misery. Egoyan takes us all on a psychological journey involving two lost souls, an excursion which is wholly original, thought- provoking, involving, and searing.
If Atom Egoyan lucked out two years ago by employing two greater actors--Ian Holm and Sarah Polley to depict two haunted individuals--his good fortune continues this time around as well. Bob Hoskins, turning in the achievement of his career, portrays a tormented man so subtly, so bereft of obvious Hollywood-style melodrama, that our hearts go out to him while we are simultaneously repulsed by the sick acts that his diseased soul compels him to perform. His Hilditch becomes the person we all know from work, from school, from right next-door: the kindly, unobtrusive, considerate person who we'd swear could not hurt a fly. His pairing with Elaine Cassidy as the lovesick girl frantically searching for the boy who lied to her is surely as recognizable to each of us. Gullible, impressed by a guy's convincing line, she has no memory of the hundreds of similar women whose lives have been portrayed in novels and films, women who have been tricked by rogues with one thing on their minds. Her not quite typically Irish features display a bevy of emotions--her expressions of shyness, trust, confusion, and anger as easy to read as a road map of midtown Manhattan.
If commercial American filmmakers got their hands on this piece of work and tried to fashion it into an American-style thriller, the picture would be corrupted so extensively that it would become another been-there-done-that. In its present form, "Felicia's Journey" not only might convince you that the Canadian filmmakers can do no wrong but could give you faith that vital movies are indeed possible without the distorting endowment of Hollywood's hand. "Felicia's Journey" was appropriately selected as the closing work of the 1999 New York Film Festival.

Raspberry Pi is so fun!
Raspberry Pi, similar to Arduino is an electronic circuit with bread broad but it can do more things because of the electronic computing. It is a significant invention because it is a cheap education tool—a credit-card size computer that can connect to display screens.
Python and Scratch are the softwares that we use for programming circuits, we write code in these softwares and they translate it in their own language and transmit the information back. When coding in these softwares, we cannot have any errors like wrong letter or forget to capitalized, because it wouldn’t work.
My favorite part was connecting Raspberry Pi to the camera. I think this can be used in many places such as a cheap monitor.
The picture was taken when I was coding the Sense Hat into colors and patterns I wanted. I made it an R, which symbolizes “Regina” I can also it blink on and off .

Chapter 2 Physiological Ecology
2.1 Background information
In the presence of light, photosynthetic organisms can utilize light and carbon dioxide (CO2) to make sugars - the process of photosynthesis. The sugars made are used by these organisms (and organisms that eat them) as a source of energy. A by-product of the photosynthetic process is the liberation of oxygen (O2).
Alongside photosynthesis, these organisms are consuming oxygen via respiration. Although respiration and photosynthesis both take place in the light, in the dark only respiration occurs (since photosynthesis is a light-dependent process). Though it is impossible to directly measure gross photosynthesis (or the total amount of O2 produced (Wohlfahrt and Gu 2015), we can measure respiration (R) as the rate of O2 consumed in the dark, and the rate of oxygen produced in the presence of light as a measure of net photosynthesis (Pnet). Combining these direct measurements, we can estimate gross photosynthesis (Pgross).
\[\begin{equation} \color{blue} P_{net} \color{black}= \color{red}P_{gross} \color{black}- \color{blue}R \tag{2.1} \end{equation}\]Using equation (2.1), we can use the direclty measured terms in blue , and may use them to calculate Pgross .
Organisms capable of photosynthesis span an incredible range of phylogeny, from unicellular algae to vascular plants (Fig. 2.1). While every algae cell is photosynthetic, aquatic macrophytes (i.e. vascular plants adapted to live in aquatic ecosystems) have large amounts of specialized tissue devoted to the transportation of resources and structural support. These two organisms are in competition for very similar resources (such as sunlight and dissolved nutrients) - how do their morphological adaptations convey a competitive advantage?
2.2 Objectives
You will form hypotheses to test questions about photosynthesis in 2 aquatic organisms - algae and a common aquatic macrophyte.
Which organism has the highest rate of biomass specific gross photosynthesis?
Which organism has the highest rate of biomass-specific respiration?
Which organism has the highest rate of net primary production (NPP) per day?
2.3 Materials & methods
You will be using a common oxygen-change method to determine rates of photosynthesis and respiration. Biological oxygen demand (BOD) bottles use a stopper that prevents gas exchange, which provides a means of isolating processes happening inside the bottle from the outside environment.
2.3.1 Materials
Oxygen production varies with the intensity of light, but reaches saturation as light intensity increases (Fig. 2.2). Since different organisms display different light-response curves, we need to saturate their photosystems with high light levels to account for a potential confounding variable in our experiment.
2.3.2 Methods
- Each group will be responsible for one of the two species. Fill 9 BOD bottles with photosynthesis solution (fill to brim - the idea with BOD bottles is for the glass stopper to push any excess water out of the seal the stopper creates).
- Carefully transfer a representative sample of your organism into 8 of the BOD bottles. Add a small stir bar to each bottle, and place the glass stopper and plastic cap on the bottle to seal. Use the DO probe to measure oxygen concentration in the remaining bottle (your control bottle).
- You will have 4 replicates for the dark treatment, and 4 for the light. Wrap the dark treatment bottles in aluminum foil, and place the light treatment bottles under the light source. .
- While you wait (at least 1.5 hours)…
- Observe samples of these organisms under a dissecting/compound microscope and note differences in morphology. Note differences in the proportion of support tissues (i.e. stems) vs. photosynthetic tissues for each organism.
- After at least 1.5 hours, measure DO concentrations in the light bottles. Make sure to record the end time each time you take a DO measurement.
- After 2 hours, measure the DO concentrations in the dark bottles. Make sure to record the end time each time you take a DO measurement.
- Carefully empty the BOD bottle into a fine-mesh sieve to separate the sample from the photosynthesis solution. Collect/scrape the sample into a labeled aluminum drying tin, and place tins into a drying oven for 24 hrs at 105C.
2.4 Data analysis
You can directly determine Pnet (from the light treatment bottles) and R (from the dark treatment bottles) by calculating the change () in dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations:
\[\begin{equation} \Delta{}DO = DO_{final} - DO_{initial} \tag{2.2} \end{equation}\]You also recorded the elapsed incubation time(h), the volume of the BOD bottles (0.330 L), and the mass of the sample (in dry weight, g). Using equation (2.1), after getting DO normalized to volume (L) and dry weight (g), you can then calculate Pgross, or the total oxygen produced by photosynthesis per unit biomass.
For the 1, and 2 questions, a two-sample t-test comparing the rates of each process (Pgross and R) will tell you if there are significant differences between each organism. Bar-graphs (with error-bars display the stardard error of the mean) are a good way of displaying this data visually.
The 3 question requires you to construct a simple model. A model is a way to represent a natural process using mathematics. Some models are simple (like the one you will construct), and some are incredibly complex. What assumptions can you make to tackle question 3? If we assume that these organisms respire for 24 hours a day, and only photosynthesize when the sun is out (10 hours a day), we can use these values as a foundation for our model (Fig. 2.3). While this makes the maths significantly easier, what are the limitations of this assumption?
There are no associated statistical tests for question 3, since you should calculate daily values using mean Pgross and mean R (no replicate values for this question). You can present the results of your model in the text of your results section.

(Brain overload!)
For this assessment, you will need to design and develop a mobile app and report on the iterative process of designing and developing it. Your app must revolve around a “mobile moment”. For something to qualify as a mobile moment, it should not be possible / desirable to do the same activity with a laptop / desktop computer. Appropriate mobile moments could be (but are not limited to): commuting, waking up, being in a new city, hiking, sitting in a lecture.
Encouraging a habit of constant work
You will work on your assessment in all workshops.
All workshops are assessment support!
We will give you tasks to do between the workshops.
If you do these, you will make steady progress.
If you do not, then you will have a lot of catching up to do.
The assessment is designed for constant work.
This should result in better overall work and less crunch-time.
We are aiming for iterative design and development.
You are encouraged to keep a design / development / reflective diary.
This will help you with the assessment submission.

AccDC Bootstrap is an HTML parser that renders advanced, accessible interactive controls using semantic HTML markup.
AccDC Bootstrap Mirrors:
For specific coding guidance, view the AccDC Technical Style Guide
Bootstrapping refers to the use of semantic HTML markup to configure advanced controls, which are then magically converted into dynamic interactive components when the content finishes loading.
This allows developers to include complex functionality that is fully configurable across thousands of web pages, without having to program individual components using JavaScript.
Benefits:
AccDC Bootstrap is module based, so it can be extended or reduced as needed for any site-wide implementation.
The style sheets for all bootstrap components are fully configurable, so they can be customized to fit the user interface design of any site while maintaining the same level of reliability and accessibility.
The bootstrap module itself is also fully configurable, so that new features and components can easily be added and customized for global integration.
All AccDC Bootstrap components are WCAG 2.0 compliant, ARIA standards compliant, and Section-508 compliant.
Tested using:
AccDC Bootstrap is designed to automatically enforce accessibility, while making it possible to populate individual components with any type of content, in any language, using any visual styling.
Recursive processing is also supported, so that new content, when rendered, will automatically be bootstrapped; even when pulled from an external resource.
Bootstrapping can also be manually invoked using the $A.bootstrap
method for individual DOM nodes.
$A.bootstrap(Container_DOM_Node);

Announcements
- (13/1): The course evaluation will be based on roughly 4-5 homeworks, 1 end-sem, and 1 student presentation
Homeworks
Completed Lectures, and Tentative Outline
In the first part of the course, we plan to look at basic covering/packing problems such as vertex cover, set cover, and minimum congestion routing. From the technical side, we will cover various algorithmic techniques (greedy, local search, primal-dual, LP rounding) which have different quality of approximation guarantees depending on the type of input instances.
In the second part, we will focus on resource allocation problems, such as max-min allocation, min-max allocation, and bin packing. Now the techniques will include designing PTASs, and rounding so-called configuration LPs, in addition to the ones described above.
In the final part, we will follow the same template for graph partitioning problems such as min cut, max cut, multi-cut, and sparsest cut. The techniques now additionally include SDP rounding and metric embeddings.

The dosages and body weight are approximations of what my friend took. I have not yet tried Datura, though I do plan too. My friend, we will call her Alice (heh heh) smoked these after finding them outside. She had read a little about Jimsom and decided to try it. I did not know she was doing this until hours later, when I recieved a frantic call from her boyfriend. He had to work that night and had already been up all night with her. So, Me to the Rescue.
Now as the observer rather than the participant, I will tell you several things.
**Pre-trip- If possible- both of you baby proof the house before the participant doses. Hide things like knives and scissors ( best is to put em in a box, remove them from the house by locking them in a vehicle, and hide those car keys) Move ill situated coffee tables and breakable objects to places out of the reach of waving arms. Lock doors to rooms from the inside if they seem hazardous (you can always pry them open later with a credit card). Planning is key.
Talk to your friend and get any concerns out in the open, but make sure that she is in a peaceful and amiable state of mind before dosing. Discuss the doses themselves. Start with a small dose. Alice smoked the seeds but other methods include teas, resins and salves. Consult books on herbal shamanism and use internet resources to come up with a realistc dose. DO NOT LET THE PARTICIPANT TAKE MORE AFTER THEY DOSE!!! Because of Daturas sneaky nature- take the agreed upon SMALL dose and dont let them have any more- even if you think they are fine and they beg you. Hide any remaining stash and stick to your guns. They can always try it again another time at a SLIGHTLY increased dose, and depending on the manner of ingestion datura can take anywhere from 20 minutes to several hours to feel the affects. After the dose has been taken, get comfortable and try not to over-think it. Relax, watch TV or listen to music, let things run their course.
Some PHYSICAL things to watch for and/or address:
1. Watch their body temperature. They will feel hot too the touch. Try to make sure it doesnt get out of control. I doubt you will be able to get a thermometer in their mouth- but its something to bear in mind.
As a general rule with mind altering drugs, Showers help with some people, with some they dont. If you are worried about their body temperature, you can try to get them in the bath- but you must REMAIN with them the ENTIRE time. They could hurt themselves very easily. Razors, Tubs and Sinks, and many other bathroom objects, in addition to the likelihood of falling while on Jimsom, present a significant threat.
2. Blood pressure fluctuations. Try to keep them from doing any super active things. THe stiller you can keep them, the better. When I say still I mean calm, as tripping people have a tendancy to wander. You must follow them as they wander- because they will find mischief. I had to stop Alice from eating her little silver hair clasp at least 7 times. Also High-up windows, balconies and steps are best avoided, as well as public places.
3. PUSH FLUIDS. Water, gatorade and other re-hyrdators (such as the drinks they sell for children who are ill or dehydrated, like pedialyte) are all good choices. Some will guzzle. Alice wanted nothing to do with it so I had to bribe her and make her.
4. Lend a hand. Literally. Alice fell and tripped a lot, by the end of her trip she had some pretty crazy bruises. Try to hover, or keep them seated if they will stay seated, when they walk around, be ready to catch them at any given moment.
5. Err on the side of caution. Monitoring these things is important, and if you suspect overdose or real danger, call in the professionals. Dont be afraid to take them to a hospital- even if they made you promise you wouldnt. Wouldnt you rather have an angry friend than a dead one. Be SMART and know what VARIETY of Jimsom your friend has taken. (Their are several, and using the info here on EROWIDs you can identify which species you have found if harvesting from nature- if you buy it off the street or on the internet- make sure that person can tell you). This info plus the amount and time of the dose will be critical information in the event that health care professionals are needed.
Now That we have covered that aspect, which is of paramount importance, lets talk about what you can expect as a sitter in terms of behavior and helping to manage the mindset from the outside.
1. Dont argue. When people trip on Jimsom, their trip is reality. I was Alice's boyfriend, mother, other friends and a stranger at times. Go with it. Be who they say you are. Speak gently to them, and dont try reasoning with them.
2. Expect some combative moments- Alice got really pissed at me for following her around. I would gently explain it was because she was tripping and I didnt want her to hurt herself. She sometimes would refer to me in the third person (thinking she was talking to someone else) and say I was being a real B**ch and I was being a pain, etc. Dont take things personally. She also said she loved me and married me in a drunken wedding in Las Vegas. I asked her what we drank. Still, they can do dangerous things (like the aforementioned hairclips) so if they fight you when you try to intervene, a good technique is to distract them with something else while you remove the hazard.
3. DONT LIGHT THEIR SMOKES, OR GIVE THEM LIGHTERS! the 'phantom cigarette' is apparently pretty common with datura. IF they are puffing on an imaginary cigarette or an unlit one, leave it at that. If they notice its not lit or it isnt there, say something like 'imagine that.' But DONT let them have a lit one.. that could easily lead to them burning themselves or the house down, not to mention the affect on their blood pressure. (nicotine is stimulant)
4. Just when you think its over.... Datura trips last a LOT longer than acid trips or other kinds of trips, if you have other things to do or you are getting tired, make sure a WELL INFORMED replacement sitter is waiting in the wings. Ideally 2 or 3 sitters is a good precaution anyway, so that you can help each other out and take small breaks at times. Also, if combative behavior is severe, it make take several of you to restrain the participant.
A good rule of thumb with comedown is to keep them drinking fluids, and after 18 hours or so begin to encourage eating and sleeping. When you are confident in their lucidity for a bare minimum of 3 hours while conscious, then it is most likely safe to let them be alone. (I make no guarantees about these timelines, as it will vary with different people and situations, but use good judgement when deciding they can safely be alone).
5. Activities are good. Alice and I like art, and while she tripped we painted and listened to music, and made a collage (we had pre-cut clippings from magazines, so no scissors, but gluesticks are pretty harmless =) This kept her sitting still and out of trouble for some time, though she would sporadically wander, she came back to the art, and showed definite interest for some time. This keeps them in a good frame of mind. If you sense they are having scary hallucinations, do what you can on the outside to reassure them and redirect what they may be experiencing by modifying external stimuli (brighter or dimmer lights *I dont reccommend total darkness*, music, tv, activites, etc).
Dont take being the sitter lightly- its very important to appropriate use of psychostimulants, (all of them, not just datura) and make note of what you observe in their behavior to tell them later, as they may not remember a lot of it.
I hope this helps give both sitters and users some ideas about how to responsibly experiment with Jimsom.

His Girl Friday (1940)
Grade: 88
"His Girl Friday" is a comedy that satirizes the newspaper business. It is based on the noted Broadway play "The Front Page", but with a plot twist in that one of the two leads is a woman and is the ex-wife of the other.
It stars Rosalind Russell as a headstrong woman who plans to marry a milquetoast insurance salesman (Ralph Bellamy). She attempts to quit her job as a reporter working for conniving editor and ex-husband Cary Grant. Although she is fully aware of his schemes, she gets suckered into covering one last story; the pending execution of a mild-mannered man who becomes unstable when carrying a handgun.
One of the running gags of the film is that clueless Bellamy keeps ending up in jail, an innocent victim of Grant's machinations. Bellamy plays the wide-eyed dupe perfectly.  in amazement.
"His Girl Friday" makes heavy use of overlapping dialogue. One scene has Grant, Russell and Bellamy all talking at once. This technique works as it makes the film more dynamic.
Newspapermen are depicted in the film as prone to cynical moralizing, embellishing the truth for dramatic impact, and willing to commit crimes in order to win a "scoop". This image may be more accurate today, more than a half century later, than it was when the film was made.
Director Howard Hawks and Cary Grant must have gotten along well, since they made four other films together. All but one of these films was a comedy. Cary Grant was a great comic actor, usually playing a character who doesn't quite realize that he is making a fool of himself. "His Girl Friday" is different in that Bellamy plays the stooge. Of course, Grant had success in dramatic roles as well.

All alliance members under top 20 alliances will not attack or scout alliances in these 20 alliances as well as their sub alliance and their farm alliances.
Rule #2
All 20 alliances will have only 1 sub alliance and 4 farm alliances for each NAP 20 alliances and all of them should be added to your alliance wall. Farm alliance can only have a maximum of 9 real players as R5 and R4. The rest of the members should have "farm" in their name for avoiding misuse of farm alliance as sub alliance.
Rule #3
Under any situation when an alliance member in NAP 20 attacks a NAP 20 alliance, R5 of alliance which got attacked can choose to forgive the attacker after talking to him first or attack the member who attacked in the same magnitude of the attack received. (Eg: Zeroed if the attacker zeroed the NAP member.)
Rule #4
For any type of violation of NAP by an alliance, their whole hive will not be attacked unless their R5 decides to break NAP intentionally. This will result in expulsion of this alliance from NAP and State council until the rest of the state council members choose to let them come back.
Rule #5
Only on request of R5 of alliance who got attacked, the attacker will be kicked from his alliance by his R5. Otherwise, he can apologies and continue in his alliance.
Rule #6
Do not attack players 10 levels lower than you without them attacking first. Hence it creates a space for small players to grow.
Rule #7
NAP 20 will be void on any NAP 20 member entering Launch Center area.
Rule #8
State vs State Kill event days will be ALL NAP. No tag bases are free to attack. On other Kill Events, NAP 20 will have no changes.
Rule #9
NAP 20 alliances who are not following NAP 20 rules will be having their NAP suspended until they correct it. Any attacks on their alliance or sub alliance or farm alliance under NAP suspension will not be considered as violation of the NAP 20.
These conditions are subjected to change if majority of state council members vote for change.
