by Curtis Edmonds --<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Seth the angel (Nicholas Cage) and Maggie the surgeon (Meg Ryan) are discussing tears. Seth, who has never cried or wiped away a tear, wants to know why people cry. Maggie tries to explain it in medical terms: the tear ducts overact for some reason, nobody knows why. Seth knows the real reason and says so -- there's too much emotion, and the body just can't handle it and weeps.
Well, it could be that the review format just can't handle all the emotion I feel about City of Angels. This movie is too big for a standard review, too majestic for the limits of this column. In a Hollywood that celebrates action and explosion and glamor, this is a movie that's not afraid to embrace the important issues of love, faith, loss and devotion that we face everyday. It is, superficially, about the romance between the angel and the surgeon, but it reaches out past the barriers of the love story to awaken the hearts and spirits of the audience.
One of the many things that makes this movie so special is its treatment of angels. The movie is chock-full of angels, who appear wearing their long black trench coats (in Los Angeles?!?), watching the world from their perches on tall buildings, reading over people's shoulders at the library, hanging around the beach at sunset, silently reassuring skittish air traffic controllers, comforting the dying. But instead of introducing us to Seth standing atop one of the massive Los Angeles skyscrapers, City of Angels opens at a very human level.  It's a touching and wrenching moment, amplified by Cage's soulful expression -- and it allows us to see the angels as more than just icons or symbols of something else. We feel Seth's pain, even as he is not able to himself -- and we feel it because of Cage's wonderful acting job.
And if Cage is wonderful, Cage and Ryan together are electric. Their early scenes are almost heartstopping -- actually heartstopping at first, as their eyes meet over an operating room table after a heart surgery gone awry. The scenes where Seth is invisibly comforting Maggie are silently eloquent, and when they finally talk, Cage speaks with such understated passion and sincerity that it's hard to believe that this is the same guy who said, "Put the bunny down!" in Con Air. As an angel, Cage is pensive and somewhat lacking in effect, but his rare smiles light up the screen. And as he falls to earth and becomes human, the contrast between his previous reserved demeanor and his joyful exuberance at being able to feel is intoxicating.
Ryan has a much less showy part, but is equally as effective. Her opening scene is similar to Seth's: after a surgery scene straight out of ER, she has to comfort the family but isn't able to do it. Unfortunately, she's not given much opportunity to stretch her acting muscles -- it's as if she's spending the whole movie reacting instead of acting. Nonetheless, she's got amazing chemistry with Cage, and there's an image where golden light floods the hospital's dank locker room that deserves to be put on a stained-glass window. Ryan's main task is to convince Seth of the charms of being human, and she succeeds marvelously.
I haven't told you everything about this movie, and I'm afraid that I can't. I haven't even mentioned the stellar supporting work from Andre Braugher and Dennis Frantz. I haven't mentioned a thing about the great work of the director and cinematographer. This is a stellar movie, worthy of much higher praise and analysis than I feel capable of, and I encourage you to experience City of Angels for yourself.
Rating: A+

4. Module Documentation¶
This documentation only details the outward facing classes that are available through the Python module. Other classes and methods are available through the C++ implementation; however, they primarily encapsulate implementation details not necessary for external use. For details on use through C++, refer to the source code and examples in the test suite. The main class in the pBEAM module is Beam. All other classes are only helper objects used as inputs to the Beam object.
4.1. Beam¶
Beam is the main class for pBEAM and defines the complete beam object. Three constructors are provided: a convenience constructor for a beam with cylindrical shell sections and isotropic material (e.g., a wind turbine tower), a constructor for general sections that very linearly between sections, and a constructor where properties vary as polynomials across elements.
Class Summary:

Whatever happened to the good old days when John Travolta would make a couple of really bad pictures and then stage a big career "comeback" with something like Look Who's Talking? Since he blasted his way back on top with 1994's Pulp Fiction, Travolta hasn't come close to getting the Hollywood bitch-slap off of the $20 million-per-film scrap heap that he so richly deserves. C'mon - were Two of a Kind and Staying Alive really any worse than Mad City and Lucky Numbers? We're talking about a guy with seven Razzie nominations as compared to his two Oscar nods. And let's not even get started on the whole Battlefield Earth thing, girlfriend.
All of which makes Swordfish's opening scene even more curious. Travolta, playing yet another bad guy role (he hasn't worn the white hat since A Civil Action.sort of), delivers a bizarre monologue directly into the camera, declaring that Hollywood makes shitty, unimaginative films, before picking apart the realism of the ending of Dog Day Afternoon (thusly telegraphing the end of this film).
After the strange soliloquy, Swordfish kicks off with a bang...literally. Shear and his band of miscreants are in the midst of a bank robbery, with dozens of hostages wired to the hilt with explosives rigged to blow if they leave the perimeter of the bank. The feds either don't know, don't care, or don't believe Shear, inadvertently dragging one hostage to a loud, grisly death that takes out several vehicles, storefronts and military personnel. It's a terrific scene, and it turns out to be the end of the film. The rest is told during an hour-long flashback through the eyes of Stanley Jobson (Hugh Jackman, Someone Like You).
Jobson, we learn, is the world's former #1 computer hacker who has just been paroled after a two-year stint at Leavenworth under the condition that he never touch another computer again for the rest of his life. The bust, which involved a virus that disabled the government's ability to read our personal e-mail messages, left Jobson's marriage in shambles and, even worse, finds his young daughter (Camryn Grimes, The Young and the Restless) calling the Porn King of Southern California "Daddy." He's living with a ratty dog in an even rattier trailer on a Midland, Texas oilfield when the comely Ginger (Jackman's X-Men co-star Halle Berry) shows up, sticks a wad of cash under his nose, and leads him back to Los Angeles to meet with her boss, Shear.
After a strange job interview that involves cracking the Defense Department's computer system while getting a blow job and having a gun jammed into his temple, Jobson decides to stick around long enough to make a wad of cash in hopes of winning legal custody of his daughter with the money. Now, I personally guarantee the world's top two hackers look more like the Comic Book Store Guy from The Simpsons than Hugh Jackman (or Bedazzled's Rudolf Martin, who plays another dreamboat computer geek). Is anybody buying this crap?
Shear and his crew are being chased by an FBI agent, played by Don Cheadle (in somewhat of a reprisal of his Traffic role). He's the same guy who busted Stanley the first time around, too. There is, of course, a whole lot of computer hokum (and the inevitable exciting hacking scene - always a cinematic thrill), as well as a laughable scene where Stanley jumps off a cliff and rolls for about 15 minutes. In real life, he'd be in frigging China. There's also a shocking bit at the end where one of the country's top black actresses gets lynched (oh my God, somebody get Spike Lee on the phone...pronto!). And there's plenty of confusion about who is working for whom, but the whole thing boils down to one secret government agency battling other secret government agencies.
Swordfish was directed by Dominic Sena (Gone in 60 Seconds), and while it's a stylish enough picture (thanks to cinematographer Paul Cameron), it has the misfortune of being written by Skip Woods. Woods wrote and directed a horrendous film called Thursday (when it played at the Toronto International Film Festival, critic Roger Ebert belittled Woods during a post-screening Q&A session) and hasn't shown much growth in his talent since then. Swordfish certainly isn't a bad film; it's the kind of loud, testosterone-driven (Berry got paid $500,000 per boob to show 'em) stuff that fuels the summer box office with its mediocrity.

Buy Flights Between US Cities For Cheap On Frontier
by Emily PriceIf you’re heading to the US any time soon, there's a airline guaranteed to give you a good price.
I decided to make a last-minute trip home this week and was shocked to find that Frontier was offering $US39 ($57) one-way flights across the country for my route. I ended up passing on that particular flight option due to its length (15+ hours) but I was still impressed it was an option.
If you’re open to flying Frontier when in the US, and potentially a longer-than-normal travel day, then it might be a great option for finding that holiday planet ticket, especially thanks to the 22 new routes it just added. Here’s the full list:
•Newark (EWR) to Las Vegas (LAS), Miami (MIA), Orlando (MCO) and San Juan (SJU)
•Cincinnati (CVG) to New Orleans (MSY)
•Orlando (MCO) to Green Bay (CRB) and Kansas City (MCI)
•Raleigh (RDU) to Atlanta (ATL)
•Sarasota (SRQ) to Trenton (TTN)
•Tampa (TPA) to San Juan (SJU)
•Las Vegas (LAS) to Portland (PDX), Reno-Tahoe (RNO), Seattle (SEA) and Santa Ana (SNA)
•Miami (MIA) to Boston (BOS), Detroit (DTW), Hartford (BDL), Newark (EWR) and San Juan (SJU)
•Phoenix (PHX) to Detroit (DTW), Fargo (FAR), San Diego (SAN) and Salt Lake City (SLC)
If you book one of the new flights by Sunday you can get a ticket for $US29 ($43) one-way. Frontier is also running a $US19 ($28) one-way special on some other flights right now, so there’s a decent chance you can find a deal even if one of the new routes isn’t what you’re after.
Also, keep in mind that Frontier’s flights are inexpensive for a reason. If you want to check a bag or select a special seat you’ll need to be prepared to pay for it. Depending on how much you add on, that inexpensive ticket might potentially end up being close to what you’d pay on another airline.

This computer science project shows the
greenhouse gas (GHG) emission world wide in the period 1990 - 2012.
The interactive visualisations enable the user to look at the specific
gasses per country per year, to compare the gas emission with
population size and gross domestic product, and to see the gas
emission changing over time.
The worldmap shows the annual GHG emissions in CO2 equivalent (CO2e)
per country. Buttons on top of the worldmap allow the user to switch between
datasets displaying GHG emissions, population size, and GDP. At the bottom
of the map a D3 slider allows the user to look through different years from
1990 - 2012 for all three datasets. Also, changing the year at the slider
will affect the piechart. Hovering over a country will provide the viewer
with that country's name. On hoverover a popup shows the name of the
country. On click, the piechart and linegraph change.
The piechart displays the carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and
rest gas emissions of one year for one country. Next to the piechart a table
displays the year, total emission (in CO2e), population size and GDP of the
selected country. Hovering over the arcs of the piechart will display the
percentage of the arcs' gas in the middle of the piechart (in the same color
as the corresponding arc), and the specific gas and exact amount (in CO2e)
are added to the table. Clicking an arc of the piechart will change the
other table on the html page, and display additional information about that
specific gas. Also, the click event will interact with the molecule
visualization.
The linegraph is displayed under the worldmap, and shows the emission
of different GHG's (CO2, CH4, N2O, rest) over time (1990 - 2012). Hovering
over the graph will display the exact emission values in CO2e for that year.
The coloring of Clicking the legend entries will alter the molecule graph
and change the information displayed in the table.
The molecule graph displays the molecular structure of CO2, CH4 and
N2O. Clicking an arc on the piechart or a gas in the linegraph's legend will
result in the display of the selected molecule (except if 'Rest' is
selected, which is not a molecule, but the sum of other gases emitted). The
chart is interactive: the user can turn and drag the molecule by clicking
and dragging it. The table above the graph provides additional information
about the gas.

Stratosphere can run on a single machine, even in a single Java Virtual Machine. This allows users to test and debug Stratosphere programs locally. This section gives an overview of the local execution mechanisms.
NOTE: Please also refer to the debugging section in the Java API documentation for a guide to testing and local debugging utilities in the Java API.
The local environments and executors allow you to run Stratosphere programs in local Java Virtual Machine, or with within any JVM as part of existing programs. Most examples can be launched locally by simply hitting the "Run" button of your IDE.
If you are running Stratosphere programs locally, you can also debug your program like any other Java program. You can either use System.out.println()
to write out some internal variables or you can use the debugger. It is possible to set breakpoints within map()
, reduce()
and all the other methods.
The JobExecutionResult
object, which is returned after the execution finished, contains the program runtime and the accumulator results.
Note: The local execution environments do not start any web frontend to monitor the execution.
If you are developing your program in a Maven project, you have to add the stratosphere-clients
module using this dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>eu.stratosphere</groupId>
<artifactId>stratosphere-clients</artifactId>
<version></version>
</dependency>
The LocalEnvironment
is a handle to local execution for Stratosphere programs. Use it to run a program within a local JVM - standalone or embedded in other programs.
The local environment is instantiated via the method ExecutionEnvironment.createLocalEnvironment()
. By default, it will use as many local threads for execution as your machine has CPU cores (hardware contexts). You can alternatively specify the desired parallelism. The local environment can be configured to log to the console using enableLogging()
/disableLogging()
.
In most cases, calling ExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment()
is the even better way to go. That method returns a LocalEnvironment
when the program is started locally (outside the command line interface), and it returns a pre-configured environment for cluster execution, when the program is invoked by the command line interface.
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ExecutionEnvironment env = ExecutionEnvironment.createLocalEnvironment();
DataSet<String> data = env.readTextFile("file:///path/to/file");
data
.filter(new FilterFunction<String>() {
public boolean filter(String value) {
return value.startsWith("http://");
}
})
.writeAsText("file:///path/to/result");
env.execute();
}
The LocalExecutor is similar to the local environment, but it takes a Plan object, which describes the program as a single executable unit. The LocalExecutor is typically used with the Scala API.
The following code shows how you would use the LocalExecutor
with the Wordcount example for Scala Programs:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
val input = TextFile("hdfs://path/to/file")
val words = input flatMap { _.toLowerCase().split("""\W+""") filter { _ != "" } }
val counts = words groupBy { x => x } count()
val output = counts.write(wordsOutput, CsvOutputFormat())
val plan = new ScalaPlan(Seq(output), "Word Count")
LocalExecutor.executePlan(p);
}
Stratosphere also offers a LocalDistributedExecutor
which starts multiple TaskManagers within one JVM. The standard LocalExecutor
starts one JobManager and one TaskManager in one JVM.
With the LocalDistributedExecutor
you can define the number of TaskManagers to start. This is useful for debugging network related code and more of a developer tool than a user tool.
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ExecutionEnvironment env = ExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment();
DataSet<String> data = env.readTextFile("hdfs://path/to/file");
data
.filter(new FilterFunction<String>() {
public boolean filter(String value) {
return value.startsWith("http://");
}
})
.writeAsText("hdfs://path/to/result");
Plan p = env.createProgramPlan();
LocalDistributedExecutor lde = new LocalDistributedExecutor();
lde.startNephele(2); // start two TaskManagers
lde.run(p);
}

Swimming can be enjoyed in public swimming pools, leisure clubs, gyms or in open water. Open water swimming takes place outside in open bodies of water such as lakes, rivers, reservoirs and the sea.
The Wild Swimming website has a list of safe open water wild swimming locations all across the UK. Other related water activities include water polo, diving and synchronised swimming.
Get InvolvedSwimming is a sport for all ages and abilities. There is a type of swimming to suit everyone.
Open water swimming can require a higher level of strength and water confidence so it it best to start in an indoor pool and build up to outdoor swimming. There is an outdoor pool in Ilkley within easy travelling distance from Leeds.
Swimming is an easily accessible sport and there are classes all across Leeds for all abilities including women only lane swimming and swimming lessons. Grab your swimming costume and head to your local leisure centre or gym.
A swimming session at a public baths usually costs around £5. The cost of swimming lessons can vary depending on where you go. If you want one to one lessons then these will be more expensive than group lessons. If you want to join a swimming club then they usually have annual fees and additional coaching fees.
If you join a gym with a pool attached it is usually free to use the pool but you will have to pay an annual or monthly gym subscription.
We want you to help us persuade more women and girls to get active, whatever their age, size, background or ability.
A Leeds Girls Can Ambassador: Goes through an appropriate recruitment process and signs up to Leeds City Council and Sport England’s policies and procedures. The main aim of an Ambassador is to get more women and girls in Leeds physically active. Ambassadors are required to attend monthly meetings which are vital for receiving guidance and insight around This Girl Can, this helps support their role. An Ambassador is not paid for their time, they are not required to lead a group and the roles can vary.

Purpose of CorrentlyWallet is to close the gap of traditional energy-only-markets and decentralized capacity markets using distributed ledger technology (Blockchain).
This Getting Started guide gives you some domain-specific background information and introduces key concepts of the energy industry.
Installation of Command Line Tool
The quickest and easiest way to use CorrentlyWallet gets provided by the CLI Implementation. However, the library itself is designed to be used in any kind of application.
Installation
npm install -g correntlywallet-cli
Usage
corrently
Key Concepts
Using CorrentlyWallet you become part of an ecosystem that is fundamentally different than traditional energy markets, where a typical concept is trading of energy. This concept comes from thermal plants like coal, nuclear or gas powered generators.
Every energy source that requires a fuel for generation can be easily traded as energy. In other words: A kilowatt-hour is a value enriched representation of fuel. This makes it super easy to burn more fuel if the demand goes up. Modern renewable energy sources do not follow this rule. It is not possible to give more sun or wind as fuel if the demand goes up. On the other hand, enough capacity needs to exist to cover every demand peek that might come up.
Decentralized Capacity Markets (DCM) transfer value of energy products based on capacity not on required fuel
For energy users (customers) this means that they need to get hold of their peeking demand. In the Corrently ecosystem, this is done based on the yearly kilowatt-hours and using industry standard algorithms to calculate peeks over time. Comparing this with available generation it is straightforward to get the share per generation facility on the load and the total demand.
Corrently uses industry standards to map capacity to actual demand, based on yearly consumption.
Other industries that work with the same method are for example banks when calculating the amount of cash they need to have to customers. Another example are telephone networks that need enough transport capacity to even cover peak loads, while customers tend to pay with a flat fee to build it and not for usage.

Nintendo's various handhelds have played home to Mario adventures since Super Mario Land hit the original Game Boy in 1989. Since then, Mario has traveled through space, hung out with a Sphinx, popped out of the screen on the 3DS, and handed the reigns off to his weird buddy Wario.
Nintendo's handhelds have also played home to various remakes and ports of classic Mario games. Being able to complete Super Mario World on a single flight, or hop through a remixed version of Mario 64 as different characters have provided some of the best handheld experiences in all of gaming.

Program to an interface, not an implementation! - A wise man.
What does it mean to program to an interface? First lets define what an interface is used for.
An interface is a binding contract between a classes and that interface. Similar class can share an interface if they share the same functionality of some kind. They also don’t provide any implementation details, they let the class decide what it will do with the set of functions. This is useful for when a function accepts a type of interface as an argument, it won’t care where the implementation comes from. This means that any class that implements that interface can be passed into that function.
For example:
Both pizza and sandwich implement the eatable interface. This interface encapsulates common functionality between the two classes. So why would this be good? It gives you the ability to say you want a certain functionality, but you do not care where it comes from. Consider the main application:
The eatDinnerFunction doesn’t care what implementation type of IEatable its getting and whatever type of IEatable is passed in can execute its eat function for each type of IEatable.


Rejection Therapy is a social self-help game created by Jason Comely where being rejected by another person or group is the sole winning condition. The player can attempt any kind of social rejection, or try a suggestion from one of the Rejection Therapy suggestion cards available. The game can be played for any length of time, although many undertake the 30 Day Challenge.
The purpose of playing the game is to overcome the fear of rejection through controlled, forced exposure. By this means, players hope to adapt physically to the stresses of rejection.


A log switch is when Oracle stops writing to the current log file, closes it, opens the next log file, and begins writing to the new log file.
Log switches may be forced manually using either the SWITCH LOGFILE or the ARCHIVE LOG clauses of the ALTER SYSTEM command. Log switches may also be forced automatically in relatively idle instances of a parallel server database, to secure recoverability. However, the normal cause of a log switch is when a process generating redo is unable to advance the index into the log buffer for redo generation further, because it is already mapped to the last log block in the current log file.
In a parallel server environment, the LGWR process in each instance holds a KK instance lock on its own thread. The id2 field identifies the thread number. This lock is used to trigger forced log switches from remote instances. A log switch is forced whenever the current SCN for a thread falls behind the force SCN recorded in the database entry section of the controlfile. The force SCN is one more than the highest high SCN of any log file reused in any thread.
For local log switches, the process initiating the log switch allocates a message buffer in the SGA and constructs a message to LGWR indicating that a log switch is required, before posting LGWR's semaphore.
LGWR performs the following four steps to effect a log switch.
It may surprise you to learn that log switches can take a long time, sometimes in the order of seconds, and so there may be plenty of potential for tuning here. OLTP users tend to be much less tolerant of intermittent poor performance than consistent moderate performance. So, it is important to both minimize the frequency of log switches, and to minimize their duration when they occur.
The log file switch completion wait event is the primary indicator of the impact of log switches on system performance. However, if log switch performance is poor, secondary waits such as log buffer space waits will also be seen immediately following a log switch. When tuning log switches, the objective is to minimize the primary waits and eliminate the secondary.
We recommend large log files - as large as you can conveniently archive - to minimize the frequency of log switches. Of course, you must also control checkpointing to ensure acceptable recovery performance.
|
The disk space used by large online log files is not of concern.
Each online log file should reside on a dedicated disk pair to prevent concurrent access, even by ARCn.
There is no point in using small online log files to conserve disk space, because any such space saved must not be used. |
|
|
It is sometimes suggested that using large log files increases the intensity of the resource usage spikes associate with archival.
This is not true; it merely increases their duration. |
|
| On the contrary, if large log files are used, archival can normally be tuned to reduce the intensity of its resource usage. This is because there is reduced risk of a sustained burst of redo generation resulting in an archival backlog. |
The greatest potential for tuning the speed of a log switch is in the opening of the new log file members. The operating system's open() system call is much faster if another process already has an open file descriptor on the same file. This is partly because certain information about the file is already cached in kernel memory. But more importantly in the case of raw logical volumes, it avoids a delay while logical volume state data reflecting the opening of the raw logical volume is written to the volume group reserved area on disk.
The APT script hold_logs_open.sh is intended to be run daily from cron under Unix to hold all the log files for an instance open for the next 24 hours. The first time we tried this technique, it shaved an impressive 6 seconds of the speed of each log switch. Your mileage will vary depending on your logical volume or file system and kernel configuration, but it is sure to help a little.
Every log switch involves two controlfile transactions. Controlfile transactions are performed under the protection of the CF enqueue, so there is no further need for concurrency control over the writes to the controlfile. However, there is still every need for recoverability should an instance or system failure occur during a controlfile transaction.
Recoverability for controlfile transactions is provided by first writing to a recovery structure in the second block of the controlfile, and waiting for that write to complete, before writing to the target blocks of the controlfile. Thus every controlfile transaction involves at least two write I/O waits.
Moreover, if there are multiple active controlfiles, then these I/O operations are performed in series for each active controlfile. Therefore, the key to improving controlfile transaction performance is to minimize the number of active controlfiles. In most cases, using a single active controlfile, protected by hardware mirroring, and supplemented by regular ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE commands, should provide ample protection.
The APT script backup_controlfile.sql provides an elegant controlfile backup facility under Unix, by automatically moving the trace file produced into the database creation directory.

Weather
Met Eireann rainfall warning for Tipperary
Yellow alert to last until Thursday
by Tipperary Star reporterMet Eireann has issued a status yellow rainfall warning for Tipperary.
The warning also covers Kilkenny, Wexford, Cork and Waterford.
From early hours of Wednesday to noon on Thursday, spells of heavy rain at times will give amounts of 30 to 50mm with a risk of spot flooding, according to the weather service.
The warning comes into effect a midnight on Wednesday and will remain in place until midday on Thursday.


SVL_UDF_LOG
Records system-defined error and warning messages generating during user-defined function (UDF) execution.
This view is visible to all users. Superusers can see all rows; regular users can see only their own data. For more information, see Visibility of Data in System Tables and Views.
Table Columns
| Column Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| query | bigint | The query ID. You can use this ID to join various other system tables and views. |
| message | char(4096) | The message generated by the function. |
| created | timestamp | The time that the log was created. |
| traceback | char(4096) | If available, this value provides a stack traceback for the UDF. For more information, see traceback in the Python Standard Library. |
| funcname | character(256) | The name of the UDF that is executing. |
| node | integer | The node where the message was generated. |
| slice | integer | The slice where the message was generated. |
| seq | integer | The sequence of the message on the slice. |
Sample Queries
The following example shows how UDFs handle system-defined errors. The first block shows the definition for a UDF function that returns the inverse of an argument. When you run the function and provide a 0 argument, as the second block shows, the function returns an error. The third statement reads the error message that is logged in SVL_UDF_LOG
-- Create a function to find the inverse of a number CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_udf_inv(a int) RETURNS float IMMUTABLE AS $$ return 1/a $$ LANGUAGE plpythonu; -- Run the function with a 0 argument to create an error Select f_udf_inv(0) from sales; -- Query SVL_UDF_LOG to view the message Select query, created, message::varchar from svl_udf_log; query | created | message -------+----------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------- 2211 | 2015-08-22 00:11:12.04819 | ZeroDivisionError: long division or modulo by zero\nNone
The following example adds logging and a warning message to the UDF so that a divide by zero operation results in a warning message instead of stopping with an error message.
-- Create a function to find the inverse of a number and log a warning CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_udf_inv_log(a int) RETURNS float IMMUTABLE AS $$ import logging logger = logging.getLogger() #get root logger if a==0: logger.warning('You attempted to divide by zero.\nReturning zero instead of error.\n') return 0 else: return 1/a $$ LANGUAGE plpythonu;
The following example runs the function, then queries SVL_UDF_LOG to view the message.
-- Run the function with a 0 argument to trigger the warning Select f_udf_inv_log(0) from sales; -- Query SVL_UDF_LOG to view the message Select query, created, message::varchar from svl_udf_log; query | created | message ------+----------------------------+---------------------------------- 0 | 2015-08-22 00:11:12.04819 | You attempted to divide by zero. Returning zero instead of error.

Using XPath Selectors in CSS
XPathy is a CSS reprocessor that resolves selectors using XPath. This plugin will read CSS selectors that end with a [xpath]
attribute and use JavaScript and XPath to determine whether or not to apply that style to elements matching the other part of that selector. For example, the XPath selector //div
will always resolve to div
, so a selector written for div [xpath="//div"] {}
will always apply to each div div {}
element.
By default, XPathy will reprocess selectors by watching the following events:
load
resize
input
click
To run XPathy whenever you want, use the xpathy.load()
function in JS.
Other things you can do with XPathy include:
Select all span
tags with the XPath //span
:
[xpath="//span"] {
color: violet;
}
Select all elements with a class name of demo-class
with the XPath //*[@class='demo-class']
:
[xpath="//*[@class='demo-class']"] {
color: lime;
}
Select an element with a text content of ‘Demo Content’ with the XPath //*[text()='Demo Content']
:
[xpath="//*[text()='Demo Content']"] {
color: violet;
}
Select the parent element of another element with the XPath /..
:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>{
border: 1px solid lime;
}
Compare attribute values as numbers with operators like >
and <
:
[xpath="//*[@data-price > 3]"] {
color: violet;
}
Select elements based on the number of children they contain with an XPath like //ul[li[4]]
:
[xpath="//ul[li[4]]"] {
color: lime;
}

I am thrilled to announced that we will be organizing another diversity scholarship program for the upcoming React.js Conf! The tech industry is suffering from a lack of diversity, but it's important to us that we have a thriving community that is made up of people with a variety of experiences and viewpoints.
When we ran this program last year, we had over 200 people apply for only 10 tickets. There were so many people that we wanted to bring in but we couldn't. The results were still awesome, and we had bright individuals from around the world attending who would have otherwise been unable to. These attendees took part in discussions at the conference and brought perspectives that we might not have otherwise seen there.
This year we're excited to bring back the scholarship, but we've set aside 40 tickets because we really believe that it's important to do our best to make sure we have an even more diverse audience.
This is something I'm personally really excited to be a part of. I know the rest of the team is as well. We're really proud to have everyone at Facebook providing support and funding for this.
The details of the scholarship are provided below (or you can go directly to the application). I encourage you to apply! If you don't feel like you are eligible yourself, you can still help – send this along to friends, family, coworkers, acquaintances, or anybody who might be interested. And even if you haven't spoken before, please consider submitting a proposal for a talk (either 30 minutes or just 5 minutes) - we're hoping to have a very diverse group of speakers in addition to attendees.
Facebook is excited to announce that we are now accepting applications for the React.js Conf Diversity Scholarship!
Beginning today, those studying or working in computer science or a related field can apply for a partial scholarship to attend the React.js Conf in San Francisco, CA on February 22 & 23, 2016.
React opens a world of new possibilities such as server-side rendering, real-time updates, different rendering targets like SVG and canvas. React Native makes is easy to use the same concepts and technologies to build native mobile experiences on iOS and Android. Join us at React.js Conf to shape the future of client-side applications! For more information about the React.js conference, please see the website.
At Facebook, we believe that anyone anywhere can make a positive impact by developing products to make the world more open and connected to the people and things they care about. Given the current realities of the tech industry and the lack of representation of communities we seek to serve, applicants currently under-represented in Computer Science and related fields are strongly encouraged to apply. Facebook will make determinations on scholarship recipients in its sole discretion. Facebook complies with all equal opportunity laws.
To apply for the scholarship, please visit the application page: http://goo.gl/forms/PEmKj8oUp4

There is another formulation for the knapsack problem. This illustrates how arbitrary our definitions of stages, states, and decisions are. It also points out that there is some flexibility on the rules for dynamic programming. Our definitions required a decision at a stage to take us to the next stage (which we would already have calculated through backwards recursion). In fact, it could take us to any stage we have already calculated. This gives us a bit more flexibility in our calculations.
The recursion I am about to present is a forward recursion. For a knapsack problem, let the stages be indexed by w, the weight filled. The decision is to determine the last item added to bring the weight to w. There is just one state per stage. Let g(w) be the maximum benefit that can be gained from a w pound knapsack. Continuing to use and as the weight and benefit, respectively, for item j, the following relates g(w) to previously calculated g values:
Intuitively, to fill a w pound knapsack, we must end off by adding some item. If we add item j, we end up with a knapsack of size to fill. To illustrate on the above example:

How to map a USPS Collection Box
Getting Started
Find an unsurveyed box on the map nearest you. Walk up to the box so you can confirm its status. The goal of this project is in-person survey, don’t mark a box present or removed unless you can confirm its status in-person. Click on the unsurveyed point on the map. You will see the address of the box and an outlet ID at the top of the screen. Confirm you are at the correct address. Select the status of the box and click the Save button.
Finding a Box
If at first you don’t see a collection box check around the block, sometimes boxes aren’t at the front of a building or are not exactly at the location shown on the map. If there are multiple boxes on the map in close vicinity look at the top of the collection box and you should see a label like this:
Match the Location ID No. with the Outlet ID in Spot the Box. This number will confirm which collection box you are at.
Confirming Removed Boxes
If you suspect a box has been removed, double check the labels of surrounding boxes first to make sure they are not the same as the box label you are surveying. A clear indication of a removed box is when you see an empty concrete pad like this:
Post Office Lobby Boxes
If you cannot find the box, double check the popup of the unsurveyed box. Some collection boxes are located inside a Post Office lobby. These are listed in the application as “Type: USPS COLLECTION BOX - PO LOBBY.” Check inside the Post Office lobby to confirm a box.
Legend
Is this collection box still here or has it been removed?

RSA isn't the only game in town, at least not when it comes to digital signatures. A competing standard is the U.S. government's Digital Signature Algorithm, specified in FIPS 186-3.
A DSA signature accepts five input parameters, including the message to be signed, and returns two output parameters.笔记：对于DSA算法来说，输入5个参数，输出2个参数 The input parameters are named g第1个参数, p第2个参数, q第3个参数, and x第4个参数 (and, of course, the message itself第5个参数). g, p, and q are part of the public key, and x is the private key.
Like RSA, the DSA signature is performed on a secure hash of the message to be signed.笔记：DSA算法是更高一层的算法，它是在Hash算法基础上构建起来的 However, the hash algorithm is somewhat part of the signature, so you can't necessarily just pick a random signature algorithm and try to apply it. DSA is certified for SHA-1 and SHA-256; if you try to use it with some other hash algorithm, “behavior is undefined.” 笔记：DSA算法只支持SHA-1和SHA-256，而并不支持MD5。
So, to generate the two-element DSA signature, whose elements are named
r
第1个输出参数 and s
第2个输出参数 by the standard (apparently nobody ever told the FIPS people the
general rule on using meaningful variable names), you perform the following computations:
What about c
? c
is just a random number — securely generated, of
course — whose length in bits is the same as q
.
(k-1 % q)
means the inverse mod q
of k
.
After performing these operations, you've generated r
and s
, which make up the signature.
If everything went correctly, v
is equal to r
. Otherwise, something went wrong
or the signature is faked.
DSA keys consist of the parameters p
, q
, and g
, a private key x
, and a
public key y
. q
must be a (random) prime number; p – 1
must be a multiple of
q
; and g
is a small number (usually 2). x
, the private key, is random, and y = gx % p
. In general, rather than compute their own p
, q
, and g
, most implementations use standardized DSA parameters. As long as x
is random, the security of
the algorithm isn't weakened by the sharing of parameters.

Groundwork
For backwards compatability apiKey is aliased to oauth_client_id within the config dictionary. The clientId getter/setters remain next to the same getters/setters for apiKey. This allows code written for older versions of groundwork.js to continue to use oauth_client_id to configure an instance while new code is encouraged to use apiKey.
Example:
let gw = new Groundwork({'apiKey': '1234'});
