A Look Back at TERMS OF ENDEARMENT (1983) and THE EVENING STAR (1996)
Aurora Greenway is one of those colorful, larger-than-life characters who exist only in Southern novels, particularly those by Larry McMurtry ("The Last Picture Show"). In "Terms of Endearment," coincidentally based on a novel by McMurtry, Aurora (Shirley MacLaine) arose as a tender, full-blooded, fiercely emotional creature. In the excruciating "The Evening Star," she is depicted as a bloodless caricature, as if she drifted in from the latest soap opera series.
"Terms of Endearment" is one of the great movies of the 1980's - it is captivating, unsentimental, brilliantly acted, and superbly directed by James L. Brooks. The heart of that film was Aurora's troubling yet loving relationship with her daughter Emma (Debra Winger). The trials and tribulations they endure evoked a nice balance between humor and heartbreak. For example, Aurora dates a swinging, hard-drinking bachelor and astronaut (Jack Nicholson), and a tender love affair begins and ends abruptly between them. Emma marries Flap (Jeff Daniels, who's been typecast ever since), a professor who teaches English and has affairs with co-eds. In retaliation, Emma has an affair with a banker (John Lithgow), and so on.
"Terms of Endearment" has a wonderful ensemble of actors at their best, and honest, vibrant writing. The beauty of the film is Brooks's careful balance between comedy, seriousness and tragedy. "Terms" also never steps into caricature or droll exaggeration resulting in a film that transcends its soap opera origins.
"The Evening Star" is at the opposite end of the pole. It is grossly exaggerated, wildly uneven, contains numerous caricatures not characters, and takes an eternity to end. This time, the eccentric Aurora (Shirley McClaine, again) has Emma's sexy teenage daughter (Juliette Lewis) to contend with, a grandchild in prison, and Emma's rich, snobbish friend (Miranda Richardson) who is trying to buy Aurora's granddaughter's love. In addition, there's Aurora's loving, loyal maid (Marion Ross) who seems more like an intrusion in her life than anything else. Oh, and there's the local psychiatrist (Bill Paxton) who has a brief, unbelievable fling with Aurora.
"The Evening Star" suffers greatly in every department when compared to "Terms." For one, the casting is actually awful. MacLaine overacts to the hilt of all hilts - she's actually annoying and boring to watch. Juliette Lewis does better with her role as a troubled teenager, but it is something she can play in her sleep. Marion Ross and the late Ben Johnson, in his last role, seem to be sleepwalking throughout.
The one actress who is wrongfully cast, and an indication of what's wrong with some sequels, is Miranda Richardson as the snobbish friend of the late Emma - she spews seemingly delectable witticisms with a crooked drawl that brings out the worst in Southern stereotypes and accents. Interestingly, her character was played by Lisa Hart Carroll in "Terms" with complete restraint - a far cry from Richardson's manic fits. Where's the dignity of Southerner Billy Bob Thornton when you really need him?
"Terms" was a real human drama and completely unpredictable and truthful from beginning to end. "Evening Star" is utterly formulaic nonsense done with none of the vigor or honesty of the original (and with a high mortality rate to boot). The film is so desperate that it even brings back Jack Nicholson for an unnecessary, heavy-handed cameo. Where's Jim Brooks when you really need him?

In this tutorial we are going to take an existing ObjC application and add Python and PyObjC to it. One of the reasons why you may want to do this is because some things are much simpler in Python than in ObjC, mainly due to the rich library Python has.
To follow the tutorial you need:
- PyObjC 1.3.1
- py2app 0.2 or later (included in the binary installer for PyObjC)
- Python 2.3 or later (note: PyObjC is NOT compatible with MacPython-OS9)
- Mac OS X 10.3 or later
- Xcode Tools
If you do not have a /Developer
folder, then you do not have Xcode Tools
installed. See Getting the Xcode Tools.
The application we are going to modify is Apple's SimpleComboBox example. This example shows you how to use combo boxes, but that is not what interests us right now: the application pretends to be a database application that allows you to keep notes (such as track list) for your CD collection. With such an application it feels silly that even though you want to type notes on the CD you are currently playing in iTunes you still have to retype album title, artist and genre. This is what we are going to fix: we are going to add a button "ask iTunes", which will use Python's AppleScript support to ask iTunes about the currently playing track and fill in the fields for you.
Follow these steps:
/Developer/Examples/AppKit/SimpleComboBox
to work on.
Let's call this SimpleComboBoxPlus
:$ cp -R /Developer/Examples/AppKit/SimpleComboBox SimpleComboBoxPlus
From this point on, all shell commands take place from this
SimpleComboBoxPlus
folder.
CDInfoDocument.nib
. Select the Class View, NSObject
, subclass
as ITunesCommunication
. Give the class an askITunes:
action.
Instantiate the class as object ITunesCommunication
. This wll be the
class that we write in Python.askITunes:
action of the
ITunesCommunication
object.ITunesCommunication
src/ITunesCommunication_1.py
to ITunesCommunication.py
.setup.py
with the following contents:from distutils.core import setup import py2app setup( plugin = ['ITunesCommunication.py'] )
You may also copy this file from src/setup.py
.
$ python setup.py py2app -A
Note that we use the -A
argument to create an alias plugin bundle at
dist/ITunesCommunication.py
. Alias bundles contain an alias to the
main script (ITunesCommunication.py
) and symlinks to the data files
(none in this case). This allows us to keep working on the source files
without having to rebuild the application. This alias bundle is similar
to a ZeroLink executable in Xcode - it is for DEVELOPMENT ONLY, and will
not work on other machines.
dist/ITunesCommunication.plugin
to the Resources folder in your
Xcode project. You can do this by ctrl-clicking the Resources folder
and choosing "Add Existing Files...". Make sure to choose
"Create Folder References for any added folders".main.m
, it is in the "Other Sources" folder in your Xcode
project, and change the main(...) function to the following:int main(int argc, const char *argv[]) { NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init]; NSString *pluginPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"ITunesCommunication" ofType:@"plugin"]; NSBundle *pluginBundle = [NSBundle bundleWithPath:pluginPath]; [pluginBundle load]; [pool release]; return NSApplicationMain(argc, argv); }
You may also copy a full main.m from src/main.m
. This code ensures
that our ITunesCommunication plugin is loaded before the nib
files.
iTunes.app
. This leads to the following hefty command line
which you should run in the SimpleComboBoxPlus
directory:$ cd SimpleComboBoxPlus $ pythonw -c "from gensuitemodule import main;main()" \ --output iTunes --creator hook --resource \ /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/Resources/iTunes.rsrc
ITunesCommunication.py
to actually communicate
with iTunes. We cop out and copy it from src/ITunesCommunication_2.py
.$ rm -rf dist $ python setup.py py2app
Then, from Xcode, clean your project (shift-cmd-K), switch to Deployment mode, and rebuild.
There a several projects that improve upon the built-in AppleScript support (or to be more precise "application scripting support"). One of those is AppScript.
When you have this module installed you can replace the contents of
ITunesCommuncation.py
with src/ITunesCommunication_AppScript.py
,
and you can skip step 13 entirely.

Positioning Techniques in CSS
Difference between Absolute, Relative, and Fixed
Sunday March 8, 2015
CSS offers various techniques for how to position blocks on a webpage. I will be discussing the differences between absolute, relative, and fixed positioning.
Absolute positioning places a page element exactly where you want it. Using the positioning attributes top, left, bottom, and right, you can set the exact location of the element. It will be relative to the next parent element or if the next parent element is the html tag, it will be relative to the page itself. While absolute positioning can be an easy way to place an element exactly where you want it, the downside is that these elements are not affected by other elements and it doesn't effect others. So you can easily get overlaps unintentionally.
Relative positioning allows you to set the positioning of an element relative to where it would normally land on a page. So if you just used position:relative with no other positioning attributes, this would be no different than the default position for a page element. However if you use other positioning attributes, such as left:50px, the element will be positioned 50px to the right of where it would normally be.
Fixed positioning essentially pins an element to a location on the browser window itself. So fixed elements remain in the same place even when the window is scrolled.And there you have it! the difference between absolute, relative, and fixed positioning.


Bunch of etreprenures to help you to develop any type of applications. Like minded people who work for a reason, to nurture love. We love everything and everyone. We understand we are nature and we are part of it. The mother planet is the place where we will be as part of it. Like a plant, like an animal sometime as part of a human. We never die never be born but change from part of one thing to the other. May be part of live body or part of a stone but we where here long time. We will be here long time. So we are immortal particles of Nature.
Get Started!

I looked into the error on google from what I understood it has to do with developers using microsoft visual studio and my lack of runtime files and/or manifest files? No idea what that is but i'm thinking maybe I need to download c++ runtime files, although I have absolutely no idea where to get them.


Basics¶
RCL is using the TRACE32 “Remote API” protocol. So in order to use the RCL module the TRACE32 software must be started with an open Remote API port.
Connecting to already running software¶
Preparing the TRACE32 software¶
The TRACE32 software has to be configured for use with a remote control, such as the API. To allow and configure remote control, add the following lines between two empty lines to the file “config.t32”. If you are using Windows and T32Start application to start the TRAC32 software, you need to open the configuration at “advanced settings” where you can select “Use Port: yes” in the “API Port” folder. The automatically created config file will have the necessary lines automatically.
<mandatory blank line>
RCL=NETASSIST
PACKLEN=1024
PORT=20000
<mandatory blank line>
PACKLEN specifies the maximum package length in bytes for the socket communication. It must not be bigger than 1024 and must fit to the value defined by T32_Config(). The port number specifies the UDP port which is used to communicate with the API. The default is 20000. If this port is already in use, try one higher than 20000.
Further information can be found in “api_remote_c.pdf” in your TRACE32 installation.
Initializing¶
Initialization is done using rcl.init()
.
If you have the environment variable T32SYS set, use
import lauterbach.trace32.rcl as t32
t32.init()
Otherwise you need to specify your TRACE32 system directory:
import lauterbach.trace32.rcl as t32
t32.init(t32sys='c:\\t32')
Connecting¶
Connecting is done using rcl.connect()
.
Connecting with default parameters¶
If you use default parameters, you can use:
import lauterbach.trace32.rcl as t32
t32.init()
dbg = t32.connect()
Connecting with parameters¶
Otherwise you can specify the parameters when calling t32.connect().
import lauterbach.trace32.rcl as t32
t32.init()
dbg = t32.connect(node='localhost', port=20000, packlen=1024, timeout=10.0)
Connecting to multiple debuggers¶
It is also possible to connect to multiple debuggers. Assuming you have debugger one running with port 20000 (default) and one debugger two running with port 20001:
import lauterbach.trace32.rcl as t32
t32.init()
dbg1 = t32.connect()
dbg2 = t32.connect(port=20001)

BY EDWIN JAHIEL
OUT OF SIGHT ** 1/2 Directed by Steven Soderbergh. Written by Scott Frank, based on the novel by Elmore Leonard. Photography, Elliot Davis. Editing, Ann V.Coates. Production design, Gary Frutkoff. Music, David Holmes. Cast: George Clooney (Jack Foley), Jennifer Lopez (Karen Sisco), Ving Rhames (Buddy Bragg), Don Cheadle (Maurice "Snoopy" Miller), Dennis Farina (Marshall Sisco), Albert Brooks (Richard Ripley), Steve Zahn (Glenn Michaels), Isaiah Washington (Kenneth), Luis Guzman (Chino), Catherine Keener (Adele), Keith Loneker (White Boy Bob), Nancy Allen (Midge), also Michael Keaton & Samuel L. Jackson. Produced by Danny DeVito, Michael Shamberg, Stacy Sher. Executive producers, Barry Sonnenfeld, John Hardy. A Jersey film released by Universal. 120 minutes. R (language, violence, sex).
Some movie titles have a facile built-in zinger that can be used by reviewers who don't like the film. Here it would be "Out of Sight, Out of Mind." But so far as I know, there are hardly any critical put-downs.The picture is getting very good-to-excellent reactions. Yet so far as I am concerned, the Out of Mind bit does apply--but not as a would-be-scathing comment. Let me explain.
OOS is amusing and inventive, but at the same time, it moves in such a here-and-there, this-and-that fashion that I find it hard to replay it in my mind. Put it this way: it has not left in me any repercussions, the feeling that it is both "rememberable" and memorable. Rather, it is instant gratification. I do grant you that judgments on many a film become valid only after a second screening, but I've had no time to do this. When it does happen, the movie may go up a half-star, or down.
It opens with a tricky, clever and funny flashback. Simpatico George Clooney plays Jack Foley, an incorrigible bank robber.  I am intrigued by the name Foley. In the Beverly Hills Cop series, Eddie Murphy was Axel Foley. Except for their sense of humor, in many ways Jack the Robber is the opposite of Axel the Lawman.
Cut to Jack's current prison. Laid-back Foley and his buddy Buddy (sic) (Ving Rhames) break out. (The technicalities are not detailed as in traditional jailbreak flicks). In the process (don't ask) they kidnap US Marshal Karen Sisco (Jennifer Lopez). A reference to Siskel and Ebert? To the Cisco Kid?
 She responds but is also professionally after Jack.
The source novel is by Elmore Leonard, whose idiosyncratic thrillers or action tales have hordes of admirers. Many of his books were made into films, including Jackie Brown, Get Shorty, Joe Kidd, Hombre, 52 Pick-up.Leonard has co-scripted some, also written original scenarios.
This picture is a big change in subject and style for director Soderbergh. After his first film ,Sex, Lies, and Videotape (1989) won the Golden Palm at Cannes, he became an instant "auteur" icon, a star among the avant-garde of the American New Wave cinema. Rather than go commercial, he went on to more or less low-budget "art" films. These did badly at the box-office and by many critics. Yet his Kafka is interesting, King of the Hill very good (and rather mainstreamish). The Underneath, Schizopolis, Gray's Anatomy, got him nowhere. Now, his decision to shift gears into full mainstream is paying off handsomely.
Out of Sight is certainly a mass-appeal movie. The plot is convoluted in a sometimes outlandish combination of Soderberghisms and Leonardisms. It certainly requires suspension of disbelief. In two hours, so much is thrown in that there's enough to feed two or three different films.The dialogue and the banter can sound outrageous but I sensed the planning and planting of colorfulness or cuteness in it.
It all feels like a hybrid: a tall tale for the majority of viewers, along with unexpected, even gratuitous, narrative and technical slants, sorties and sallies by the experimentalist who lies in Soderbergh's psyche. Absurdism, expressionism and filmic unorthodoxy may not be the film's main traits, yet they're still very much present. At times, those are welcome touches. At times they slow down the picture, interfere with its momentum, as in a sequence of the couple doing goo-goo eyes by a picture window, way up in a hotel bar. The rain outside is as phoney as any I've seen. But the excellent,entertaining acting of all involved is the movie's greatest asset.
Essentially OOS belongs to the familiar sub-genre of comedies about fumbling thieves or outlaws. It could have been worse. Or better.

Details on JEDI's task based workload management can be found in the JEDI twiki.
The task status shown in the monitor is in JEDI terms the simplified 'superstatus' the task is in. In ATLAS, these are in sync with DEFT states. JEDI uses internally a more complex set of states, shown on task detail pages as 'Detailed JEDI status' (when it differs from the superstatus); this is the 'status' field in the JEDI task.
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'registered' %} - Status registered indicates the task has been received by JEDI and the task information is inserted to the JEDI_Tasks table. {% endif %}
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'submitting' %}
- Status submitting indicates the task is progressing through the steps preparing it to be run, including scouting (sending scout jobs to validate the task and measure its parameters). {% endif %}
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'running' %}
- Status running indicates the task has successfully validated and is running. {% endif %}
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'finished' %}
- Status finished indicates that some inputs of the task were successfully processed but others were failed or not processed (e.g. because files were unavailable) when the task was terminated. It can be re-tried by resubmitting the same command again, in order to try again the files not yet processed. It is possible to set/unset --site, --cloud, and --excludedSite when re-submitting the task.
{% endif %}
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'done' %}
- Status done indicates that all inputs of the task were successfully processed. {% endif %}
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'failed' %}
- Status failed indicates the task has failed, all inputs have failed, in a way that retry is possible (if retry is judged to be impossible the task goes to status 'broken'). If some inputs succeeded while others failed and the class is terminated, the task goes to 'finished' status. {% endif %}
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'aborted' %}
- Status aborted indicates the task has been killed. Aborted tasks can be re-executed. {% endif %}
{% if show == 'all' or task.superstatus == 'broken' %}
- Status broken indicates the task has failed in a way that makes retry very likely impossible. Tasks are declared as broken only in very limited circumstances, e.g. when all scout jobs failed, build jobs failed at multiple sites, etc. Users can force retry from broken state at their own risk, using the --allowTaskDuplication option; see the pathena/prun documentation. {% endif %}
The JEDI twiki has details on JEDI task
state transitions and detailed internal states and
task schema. Task state names in the monitor are links to this documentation.
{% if viewParams.MON_VO == 'ATLAS' %}
Prodsys, DEFT, and JEDI task states, transitions and relationships are
described here on the Prodsys twiki.
{% endif %}
Finished/failed progress of the task is indicated by the percentage and counts of input files that are finished/failed.
Click on the failed file percentage or count to see a summary of the errors.
In the new JEDI system, task progress cannot be monitored in terms of jobs completed/failed because jobs are defined dynamically. The input files associated with a task are an invariant of the task, so measuring their progress is a valid metric of task progress.
JEDI centers around tasks, no longer around jobs as in the old system.
In the old system, the front end clients -- analysis and prodsys1 -- predefined the jobs for panda, and panda's mission was to process those jobs. The metric for progress and success was the processing of those jobs.
In the new system, the front end clients -- JEDI based analysis and prodsys2 -- define only the task: a transformation to be applied to a set of inputs. Panda's mission in this system is to process those inputs, and the metric is progress and success in processing those input files. Jobs are dynamically created and re-created at panda's discretion to process and as necessary retry those inputs, shaping the jobs optimally for the resources available at a given time. So jobs are shapeshifting and fluid, it is the inputs that really define the task and are the measure of its completion.
For JEDI based analysis and production, monitoring tasks and the processing of their input files is the best means of assessing processing status.
Further information that can be viewed via the task detail page:
- Job list: lists the task's jobs. Jobs that have been retried are excluded from the list (they are obsolete and would clutter the list with misleading information).
- Child tasks: tasks can have parent/child relationships. This lists child tasks of the present task
- Prodsys task page: the prodsys2 page for the task with access to DEFT information and functionality
- Brokerage logger: shows the history of brokerage actions for the task
- JEDI action logger: look here to see the detailed history of JEDI actions in processing the task
- Error summary: job error summary page for the jobs in this task
Tasks can be listed based on a substring of the taskname using the Search page. It supports searches by project, tag, stream. All of these are simply taskname substring searches. You can also use &taskname=*substring* in the URL.
It is possible to retrieve task data in json format via curl so that it can be used programmatically. Do not use web page scraping; if you need info, ask how to get it. An example curl command is as follows; it takes the same url parameters as the browser version.
If you are using lxplus:
cern-get-sso-cookie -u https://bigpanda.cern.ch/ -o bigpanda.cookie.txt
curl -b bigpanda.cookie.txt -H 'Accept: application/json' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' "https://bigpanda.cern.ch/tasks/?taskname=user.nacken*&days=3&json"
If you are retrieving JSON outside of CERN:
ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>"cern-get-sso-cookie -u https://bigpanda.cern.ch/ -o bigpanda.cookie.txt;"
ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>'curl -b ~/bigpanda.cookie.txt -H '"'"'Accept: application/json'"'"' -H '"'"'Content-Type: application/json'"'"' "https://bigpanda.cern.ch/tasks/?taskname=user.nacken*&days=3&json"'
The first command performs SSO authentication, the second delivers needed information. You may reuse single cookie until it get expired.
What you get is a list with each element a dictionary with info for a task. If your request is for a single task (jeditaskid=N), you get additional info: an element 'datasets' in the task dictionary with input/output dataset info.
Q&A
- The status of the task is failed but all input/output have the status running?
- Failed jobs remain in the active table while other jobs are still running. The idea is to allow users to retry
failed jobs while the task is still running. They finally go to the archived table and file status is updated
at the same time.
- The status of the task is running but the % of finished or failed jobs is 0 even though one job finished and one failed?
- The finished job was a build job, so there was no successful jobs. The failed job was going to be retried and thus it was not counted as a failure at that time.
- My task failed because input data is only available on tape?
- You cannot process data directly from tape. Use DaTRI to first replicate the data to disk.
- How can I see my job logs from the task page?
- Click on 'job list' in the View box, then on a job PandaID link and then the log files link in the box.
- If we want to kill a JEDI task, is there a way that I can do: "kill(JEDI TASK ID)"? Or should I instead kill the corresponding JobsetID associated to this task? i.e. Just do "kill(Jobset ID)"?
- Yes, for now, kill the Jobset ID. Each jediTaskID is mapped to a unique jobsetID for the user. Once everything migrates to JEDI,
pbook functions could change to take jediTaskID instead of jobsetID.
- If I want to retry the some failed jobs in a running JEDI task, is it possible? And what should I do in pbook?
- They are automatically retried at the same and/or other sites at most 3 times by default.
Once the task goes to finished/failed, you can retry it by using pbook.retry(jobsetID).
- How do I find out the JobsetIDs associated with a task?
- There is a 1:1 correspondence between jobsetid and task. The jobsetid for a given task is shown in the task detail page top summary, and in the task list on user pages.

just say thx or thank you is ok.<3
The money system of Counter-Strike is very simple and easy to understand, when you know how much you earn by winning a round, and losing one. Knowing and being able to use the system will give you more knowledge about the game, and will improve your gameplay, and efficiency as a team.
Being able to know that you can drop a weapon for your teammate before the round starts will spare that extra talk about who’s gonna drop that gun. It will also spare you those extra seconds when you’re having the “drop talk”, to analyse a few extra seconds, where the enemy is weak, and what to do that round. Once you’ve mastered the system, I’m sure you will understand what I mean.
The following table describes every possible way you can earn money in CS. There’s no other way to earn money faster, or slower than this, except for a bug that I won’t mention here.
Losing a pistol round:
+$1400
Losing a round:
+$1500
Winning a round:
+$3250
Defusing the bomb:
+-$0
Planting the bomb:
+$800
Killing an enemy:
+$300
Teamkilling:
-$3300
Bonus for every lost round:
+$500
Maximum after a pistol round:
+$3400
Maximum after a normal round:
+$3000
As you can see you get a slight bonus every time you lose a round, except the first lost round (you don’t get a bonus the first lost round). This means, if you lose the pistol round, you will get $1400. Most teams do two economical rounds, meaning you don’t buy anything, or buy very little, let’s say a HE granade for example. The maximum ammount you can end up with after those two ecos would be: 800+1400+1500+500+1500+500=$6200.
Note: This is if you don’t buy anything during the pistol round.
So most likely you will end up between $5200-$6200 if you don’t buy anything else and don’t kill anyone during these 3 rounds. Here’s an example for CT side, of what you can buy and still have money for the nessesary equipment during round 4.
You start off with $800. You buy HE, flash, a defuse kit, and two clips for the usp. That leaves you with $50. Lets say you get one kill, but your team looses the round. That leaves you with ¤1750 in round 2. Go full eco on this round. Hopefully you can take one out if you’re lucky. You will end up with $3950. Without a doubt, you can buy a deagle with two clips and still have enough money to buy everything you want for the 4th round. So thats $3950 - the cost for the deagle which is: 650+40+40=$730. You now got $3220. This deagle is very good. If you’re lucky you can get a lucky 1 shot at the opponent, and swoosh, you’ve got yourself an AK dubbeling your chances of picking of another opponent! This also messes up your opponents money, making him unable to drop a weapon next round. So your deagle has cost your opponent his full equipment! Which is quite good, since you will end up with $5120.
A rule every clan should have, is that after every lost round, you write your money in team_say. Default button: U. This way you can way more easily determine if your team needs an eco or not.
I’ve seen alot of clans, where some say their money in ventrilo, some in team say, some don’t say anything at all. How are you gonna decide wether to eco or not? If everyone writes their money after a lost round, you will save both time, and your throat yelling eco/buy!
Example:
Player 1: 3.3k
Player 2: 5.2k
Player 3: 1.7k
Player 4: 7.1k
Player 5: 3.8k
And remember(!) only the ingame leader says if you’re gonna eco or not. Otherwise we will have the same trouble as if you were going to say your money in ventrilo etc.
This is essential to sucess. You must analyse your opponents. What weapons are they buying? Did they buy armor? Did they plant the bomb?
One thing you can keep in mind as CT, or T, if the Terrorists lost the pistol round, but managed to plant the bomb that round, or the first eco round, they will most likely buy as much as they can on the third round. This is a smart move, since some of the CT’s may have only mp5’s or famas, and will have problems dealing with terrorists armed with AK’s.
However, they will have a harder time attacking, since they won’t have absolutly full equipment, in example; they won’t be able to buy Awp’s. The Terrorists will only have around $4000 if they bought at the pistolround. This means they will have probably an AK($2500), kevlar&helmet($1000) and a flash($200) and clips for the AK. So if the CT uses their flashes and HE grandes right, they will be able to stop the attack from the rushing terrorists more easilly than if they had eco’ed once more and attacked with full equipment. Wether to buy on that third round or not, is up to you guys.
And here follows some questions to SK|vilden regarding the money system!
1.If you end up with $3800, and no one of your teammates are able to drop, what shall you buy as Terrorist/ Counter-Terrorists?
SK|vilden: As terrorist you will most likely buy in such a situation. But it also depends on which map you are playing. On an open map like dust2 you will have a bigger chance to win that round than you have on nuke for instance.
What also have an impact on this are your tactics, if they can be executed almost without grenades. So you need to keep in mind that it’s important to have tactics that are useable without grenades aswell. If it’s only one player, he should buy an ak47 with one flash and one ammoclip.
And regarding CT, it’s easy to answer. You should never buy when the whole team got $3800. If it’s only one player that got 3800, he should go for famas.
2. Is there any good way of telling if and why you should save your weapons?
SK|vilden: In a situation where you know that you most likely will loose the round, you should always save, I mean, that’s logical. Since there’s always a better chance to win the the next round if it’s eco and two players still got their weapon.
3. Do you got any good tips how to analyse your opponent? To tell if they will be ecoing the next round, or if they got alot of money?
SK|vilden: The moneysystem nowadays isnt hard to understand, nor is it as needed as before. But everyone should know that you get $1500 after you first loss, after a round you won. Lets say that you are up 3-0, you loose the 4th round and then you win again. (4-1) Then you will know that your opponents got 1500$ that round after. Which in 9/10 cases means eco for them.
If they keep loosing after that they will get +1900$, +$2400, +$2900 and a maximum of $3000 till they win a round. (If a team keeps loosing from the gunround, it will look like this; +$1400, +$1900, +$2400, +$2900 and a maximum of +$3400).
Another important thing that is needed to know about, even though I believe almost everyone knows, is that, when Terrorists looses a round but plants the bomb, they will get 800$ more than what they would get without it. So, if you win the gunround as CT and T’s got plant + 1 or more frags, they will be able to drop an ak.
So it’s important to have in mind that your opponents can surprise you and buy the second round with ak’s and deagles.

Happy Birthday HeatoN
June 14th, 1984 a Swedish child was born who 15 years later became known to the world as the one and only, yes that’s right, we are indeed talking about Emil ”HeatoN” Christensen who turned 22 years old today.
When asked what he was planning on doing for his birthday this year his answer was “Playing CS :D” which NiP will be doing all week at Gamers Paradise in order to prepare for the upcoming Dreamhack event.
For those of you near Stockholm feel free to bake HeatoN a special birthday cake (or buy some tacos) and come on over to Gamers Paradise to visit the ninjas in pyjamas and say happy birthday to HeatoN in person or if that is too much trouble for you then you can always do so in the comments.
All of us here at NiP would like to wish you a happy 22nd birthday HeatoN!

Getting Started with the Smart AdServer iOS SDK
Introduction
Welcome to the Smart AdServer iOS SDK v3.2.2.
This document is a quick guide to install the iOS SDK in your application.
There are 3 classes that you will use :
- the SASBannerView and SASInterstitialView classes (inheriting from the SmartAdServerView class (that itself inherits from UIView)) will be responsible for displaying the ad;
- the SmartAdServerAd class (inheriting from NSObject) represents the ad object.
And a protocol :
- the SmartAdServerViewDelegate protocol : The protocol methods allow the delegate to be aware of the ad-related events. You should use it to handle your app’s or the ad’s behavior like adapting your view size depending on the ad being displayed or not. The delegate of a SASBannerView or SASInterstitialView object must adopt the SmartAdServerViewDelegate protocol.
1. Installing the SDK in your project
The first thing you need to do is to import all the files in your project.
Step 1: Drag the following file and folders into your project:
- libSmartAdServer.a : the compiled framework with all the code
- headers : the documented headers with interfaces and protocols.
- sas.bundle : the images and the localized files for the library. You can modify those files to adapt the graphic elements of the SmartAdServer SDK, the texts displayed, and to add additional languages to your application (default provided languages : english and french)
Make sure that “Copy items into destination group’s folder (if needed)”, and that all your targets are checked.
Step 2: As our library needs some frameworks to work, your project should be linked against:
- the CoreLocation framework
- the SystemConfiguration framework
- the QuartzCore framework
- the CoreMotion framework
- the MediaPlayer framework
The CoreMotion framework should be weak linked if you want to support iOS versions prior to 4.0 :
For Xcode 4 :
In the project navigator view, click on your project, select your target in the editor, click on the “Build Phases” tab. Add the libraries with the “+” button in the “Link Binary With Libraries”. For the CoreMotion framework, change the “Required” property to “Optional”
For Xcode 3 :
Right click on the “Frameworks” group in your project, choose “Add” => “Existing Frameworks…”, and add the three frameworks mentionned above.
Select your target, click on Info, in Linked Library changed Required to Weak for the CoreMotion framework.
Our library includes the localization files in a bundle. In order to allow Cocoa to load those files, edit your Project-Info.plist file to add a row, set the key to CFBundleAllowMixedLocalizations and the value to YES.
Forgeting this step will disable the internationalization of the SDK.
2. Displaying an ad in your application
Import SASBannerView.h if you want to display a banner or a toaster and/or SASInterstitialView.h if you want to display an interstitial in the class file that will be responsible for displaying the ad :
#import "SASBannerView.h"
#import "SASInterstitialView.h"
And the delegate of a SASBannerView or SASInterstitialView object must adopt the SmartAdServerViewDelegate protocol :
@interface MyViewController : UIViewController <SmartAdServerViewDelegate>
Both SASBannerView and SASInterstitialView classes inherit from the SmartAdServerView class, so to set your Application’s site ID, use [SmartAdServerView setSiteID:] This step only needs to be done once in your application’s life cycle, but it’s required, so that Smart AdServer can collect ad display data. Typically you can call setSiteID: in your application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method :
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
[SmartAdServerView setSiteID:123456];
// Your app initialization code
return YES;
}
At this point, for development purpose, you can also call two other static method :
- [SmartAdServerView enableLogging] will allow you to get feedback for debugging in case of an error, or to know which URL is called, etc. This should be removed in production (logs cost some CPU cycles).
- [SmartAdServerView enableTestMode] can be used if you don’t have proper ads configured on the server side. This will display a generic ad, and you’ll be able to work on the integration without having to wait for a proper server-side ad configuration. This MUST be removed in production, because if not, only the generic ad will be displayed.
Now you can start to create some ad placements with the help of the Samples page.
Warning : In the SmartAdServerViewDelegate methods, the adView object is a SmartAdServerView instance. As SASBannerView and SASInterstitialView inherit from SmartAdServerView, you can check if adView is a banner or an interstitial by checking the following :
if ([adView isKindOfClass:@"SASBannerView"]) {
//adView is a banner
//Do banner stuff
}
else if ([adView isKindOfClass:@"SASInterstitialView"]) {
//adView is a interstitial
//Do interstitial stuff
}
Before submitting to Apple, you should make sure that you did everything right and didn’t forget something by checking the Checklist page.
3. Going further
Obviously, they are many other things you can do, and they are covered in the SASBannerView and SASInterstitialView Class References. Here are some examples (see the links for more information) :
- Geo-targeting your ads : [SmartAdServerView setCoordinate:];
- Refreshing a banner ad : [SASBannerView refresh];
- Displaying custom local ads (in case of download failure) : [SASBannerView displayThisAd:]; or [SASInterstitialView displayThisAd:];
- Removing a interstitial view : [SASInterstitialView dismiss];

Octopuses Don't Have Tentacles
by Beth SkwareckiEntomology student Dalton Ludwick once asked scientists on Twitter: If you could have the entire world know something about your field of study, what would it be? The hashtag #MyOneScienceTweet was born, and it was glorious.
Birds are dinosaurs, but pterosaurs aren't. Mind blown, right? Here's the one about octopuses:
There are important science facts about people, too:
And physics:
And everything else:

z-values, aka values coming from an z-transformation are a frequent creature in statistics land. Among their properties are the following:
- mean is zero
- variance is one (and hence sd is one)
But why is that? How come that this two properties are true? The goal of this post is to shed light on these two properties of z-values.
Mean value of z-value is zero
There are a number of ways to explain this fact.
One is that it is one feature of mean values that the sum of the differences of the mean is zero. z-values tell nothing but the difference to the mean (in relation to the SD of the distribution). Hence, once you realize that the mean z-value is nothing but some mean value, you will see that the mean of a distribution/sample in z-values equals zero.
Intuition
Look at the following codea and diagram as an intuition:
library(tidyverse)
mtcars %>%
select(cyl) %>%
slice(1:10) %>%
mutate(cyl_mean = mean(cyl),
diff = cyl - cyl_mean) %>%
summarise(sum(diff))
## sum(diff)
## 1 1.776357e-15
So our sum of the diff
values is (practically) zero.
mtcars %>%
rownames_to_column %>%
select(cyl, rowname) %>%
slice(1:10) %>%
mutate(cyl_mean = mean(cyl),
diff = cyl - cyl_mean,
sign_diff = sign(diff)) %>%
ggplot() +
aes(x = rowname, y = diff) +
geom_col(aes(fill = factor(sign_diff))) +
coord_flip() +
guides(fill = FALSE)
The diagram above is meant to give an impression that the negative and positive differences to the mean “cancel out”, ie., sum up to zero. Put pluntly: First, concatenate the red bars. Then, concatenate the magenta bars. You will find the total red bar and the total magenta bar are of the same length.
One further visualization:
cyl_mean <- mean(mtcars[1:10, "cyl"])
mtcars %>%
rownames_to_column %>%
select(cyl, rowname) %>%
slice(1:10) %>%
mutate(cyl_mean = mean(cyl),
diff = cyl - cyl_mean,
sign_diff = sign(diff),
ID = 1:10) %>%
ggplot() +
aes(x = ID, y = cyl) +
geom_col(aes(fill = factor(sign_diff))) +
coord_flip() +
guides(fill = FALSE) +
geom_hline(yintercept = cyl_mean) +
geom_rect(aes(xmin = ID-.45, xmax = ID+.45,
ymin = cyl_mean,
ymax = cyl_mean + diff
),
alpha = .7) +
scale_x_continuous(breaks = 1:10)
Saying that the differences of the values to the mean sum up amounts to saying that the “negative bars” (starting at the vertical mean line at about 5.8) are of equal length if concatenated as the “positive bars” (again starting at the vertical line), concatenated.

But why does this equation hold? And how does this apply to z-values?
Let’s look at some algebra:
$$\bar{z}x = $$ $$\frac{1}{n}\sum{z{xi}} = $$ $$ \frac{1}{n}\sum{\frac{x_i- \bar{x}}{sd_x}} =$$ $$\frac{1}{n} sd^-1 \underbrace{\sum{(x_i - \bar{x})}}_{\text{0}} = 0$$
But the sum of the differences to the mean ($$\sum{(x_i - \bar{x})}$$) is zero. Hence, the whole term is zero. That’s why (that’s one reason hot to explain why) the mean of z-values is zero.
But… why is the sum of differences from the mean equal to zero?
$$\sum{(x_i - \bar{x})} = \sum{x_i} - \sum{\bar{x}}=$$ $$ \sum{x_i} - n\bar{x} = \sum{x_i} - n \frac{\sum{x_i}}{n} = \sum{x_i} - \sum{x_i} = 0$$
SD of z-values is one
Ok, maybe the mean value of z-values is zero. But why is the SD or the variance equal to one?
If the variance is one, we will agree that the sd is one, too, because the root of 1 is 1.
Intuition
Well, suppose you take all the differences $$d$$ from the mean and divide them by $$sd$$. Let’s call the new differences $$d^{\prime}$$. Not very surprisingly, the $$sd$$ of $$d^{\prime}$$ will also change accordingly - multiplied by $$sd^{-1}$$, ie., $$sd^{\prime}$$ will be divided by the factor $$sd$$. And that yields 1.
More formally
Let $$V(X)$$ be the variance (V) of some variable X, the remaining details are as above.
$$V{z_x} = \frac{1}{n} \sum{(z_{x_i} - \bar{z}_x)^2}=$$
But, $$\bar{z}_x = 0$$, as discussed above. Thus, the equation is shortened to:
$$ \frac{1}{n} \sum{(z_{x_i} - 0)^2}=$$
Now we replace $$z_{x_i}$$ by its definition.
$$ \frac{1}{n} \sum{\left( \frac{x_i - \bar{x}}{sd} \right)^2}=$$
Rearranging gives:
$$ \frac{1}{sd^2} \sum \frac{(x_i - \bar{x})^2}{n} =$$
which can be simplified to
$$ \frac{1}{V} V(X)=1$$
Thus, we see that the variance of z-values equals 1.
Similarly, picking up the idea from the intuition above, note that
$$V(aX) = a^2V(X)$$
In other words, if we multiply our values (the $$x_i$$s) by some factor $$a$$, the resulting variance will increase by $$a^2$$. In case that the mean value is zero (as for z-values), then we may say that “if we multiply our differences $$d$$ by some factor $$a$$, the variance will increase by $$a^2$$”. Taking the root of the variance, we are left with the sd changed by factor $$a$$.


FROM SANI KEITA
ABIDJAN,COTE D'IVOIRE.
WEST AFRICA.
DIRECT<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Dear one,
I am Mr.Sani Keita,the son of Mr.Balla Keita,who served as minister of education for a period of about nine (9)years till the Military took over power on the 23rd December 1999.
As a result of this,my Father went on exile in Burkina Fasso,till he was assasinated on the 11th August 2002 there in Burkina,sponsred by the present government in power here in Cote D'voire.
Soon after the death of my Dad,this present government laid hands on his wealth and properties,all was confisticated.But as God may have it,they could not discover the banking particulars of his deposit made here in one of the banks in Abidjan,the sum of $9,000,000us(nine million us dollars).Though,his file was kept with
his presonal Attoney who now advised me to source for an avenue outside Africa where this money can be moved to immediatly.
While i leave this country as well for my life security.
Now,i solicit you with my sincere desire to come to my aid in order for:
(1)to move this money out of this country to your's.
(2)to also look out for me what the money can be invested on.
(3)that i may continue my educatoin there in your country.
I sincerely wish to compersate you over whatever expenses you might undergo with some percentage of this money involved.
Best regards
SaniKeita.

Inside I'm A Celeb's clinic as cast and crew are plagued by ticks, tonsillitis and bug bites
I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! returns with lots of creepy crawlies so the next group of jungle hopefuls are sure to visit medic Bob
by Tiffany WallisThe I'm A Celebrity jungle camp is getting ready to welcome a new batch of celebrities .
And the on-set clinic prepares for all the illnesses, injuries and accidents.
The resident I'm A Celeb first aider Bob McCarron spoke about the numerous insect bites, stitches and bug removals he has had to endure over the years.
The Australian medical expert works seven days a week for seven weeks straight for each series of the hit ITV show and is constantly busy due to the hot weather, snakes and thousands of poisonous critters.
He told The Sun : "We treat an average of 30 cases a day in clinic. There are pretty much snake sightings every day."
In one series, medic bob and the team had to deal with a crew member who went into anaphylactic shock from a tick bite and two who contracted tick fever.
On that same series, more than 100 ticks were removed, while 22 carpet pythons, 12 green tree snakes and 11 brown tree snakes had to be relocated.
There were also 14 cases of tonsillitis, 11 of the flu, 20 colds, 30 insect bites and two pregnancy announcements, reports the newspaper.
Not forgetting the 30 rashes, numerous cuts, grazes, bumps and stitches.
Famously, Fatima Whitbread had a deadly near miss when a tree branch almost fell on her as a cockroach was being removed from her nostril.
Trials Producer Kevin O'Brien recalled the incident: "The no.1 killer in the Aussie rainforest is falling branches.
"We were standing in this tiny clearing with medic Bob poking around up Fatima's nose when we heard this almighty crack.
"This massive branch slams down just inches from where we are standing."
A lot of the Bushtucker Trials leave celebrity's with small, unwanted souvenirs.
In 2013, Matthew Wright had an insect stuck in his ear but luckily medic Bob was on hand to remove it with tweezers.
No one can forget dramatic Gillian McKeith from 2010 after she fainted from a burial challenge involving rats.
And the queen of Essex GC insisted that she suffered from post-traumatic stress from her experience in the jungle.
In 2014, producers revealed a plague of ticks had infested the jungle camp, and the situation was so bad that one crew member had to be sent home.
After leaving the I'm A Celebrity jungle in 2018 as runner-up, Emily Atack was pictured with hundreds of agonising insect bites and painful swellings on her legs.
During the same series, EastEnders star Rita Simons woke up covered in sore looking bites as did The Chase star Anne Hegerty who was seen with angry red blotches on her skin.
I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! returns for it's 19th season next weekend, with the highly-anticipated jungle reunion of presenting legends Ant and Dec .
The first celebs have landed in Australia today with Ian Wright and Caitlyn Jenner leading the arrivals.
The stars touched down at Brisbane Airport on Sunday, following Ant and Dec's arrivals yesterday.
The new stars of I'm A Celeb Extra Camp have also touched down in Brisbane, with Adam Thomas and Emily Atack joining Joel Dommett for this year's spin-off show.
Others names expected to join them in the jungle include GMB breakfast TV presenter Kate Garraway and former Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle.
The opening episode of I'm A Celebrity airs next Sunday night at 9pm on ITV.
