IN THE LINE OF FIRE A film review by David N. Butterworth Copyright 1993 David N. Butterworth/The Summer Pennsylvanian
Who wouldn't relish the opportunity to redeem themselves for a past failure if given a second chance? That's the simple premise behind IN THE LINE OF FIRE, the latest film to star Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood. But the movie takes this thin idea and runs with it, resulting in a taut and genuinely believable political thriller that's every bit as watchable as the laconic star himself.
Eastwood plays Frank Harrigan, a Secret Service agent of long standing with a Presidential skeleton in his closet--he failed to stop the bullet that killed John F. Kennedy. Thirty years later he gets the chance to prove himself when a would-be assassin comes a-calling, taunting Harrigan with threats of repeating the horror of Dealy Plaza.
Eastwood's Harrigan seems like a real person. He's a self-confessed "borderline burnout with questionable social skills" who collects jazz records, tinkles the old ivories, and likes to ride public transportation. He also "knows things about people." Harrigan refers to himself as "over fifty" in the film (Eastwood is actually 63), and one of IN THE LINE OF FIRE's strengths is that it doesn't pretend otherwise.
In fact, Harrigan is paired with a rookie cop, played by Fred Dalton Thompson, to play up his comparative age and experience. Then there's a repeating theme about how Harrigan's just too old for this line of work--the killer calls, the Feds trace the call, the Feds race out the door, Harrigan huffs and puffs along. Given his age, it's remarkable that Eastwood does so much of his own stuntwork (i.e., running). Finally, the touching relationship that develops between Harrigan and agent Lilly Raines (Rene Russo) works because Eastwood isn't playing a standard romantic lead. Their abbreviated love scene evokes a smile rather than a cringe.
John Malkovich is convincing in the role of James McCrawley, an obsessive paranoid who's as smart as he is dangerous. He's not a generic lunatic, suffering from some pat psychological disorder, but a frighteningly plausible personality. And he takes great delight in pushing all of Harrigan's buttons. There are lots--and I mean lots--of shots of Eastwood, receiver pushed to his ear, temples pounding, brow like a newly ploughed field. "I don't have to listen to any more of this!" he growls. But he's paid to take this psycho's abuse. McCrawley dribbles and snaps and flips out often; it's clear we're dealing with a timebomb of a man who's likely to explode at any moment.
One of the things that makes IN THE LINE OF FIRE so realistic is that the producers don't pretend Eastwood's a spry, 30-year-old action hero. He, Russo, and Malkovich all perform admirably. In fact, Eastwood comes awfully close to acting at times. Some weak and obvious wisecracks apart, he really shines.
Also impressive are the film's supporting characters. Dylan McDermott plays Chief-of-Staff Harry Sargent whose role is that of the typical shortsighted bureaucrat; he's so focused in on his job (in this case the success of the Presidential campaign) that he's oblivious to the threat of any real danger. Gary Cole and John Mahoney play high-ranking government officials with equal competence.
But perhaps the nicest surprise is the way IN THE LINE OF FIRE gives Presidential bodyguards their due. Their role, protecting someone as prominent as the U.S. President, is depicted as extremely difficult and uncompromising. At a political convention, with flashbulbs bursting and photographers swarming, Harrigan is among the anxious agents keeping order. This is a tough job all right. Ironically, Harrigan refers to some Secret Service operations as "window dressing." If someone wanted to take an anti-tank gun to the President's limousine, a dozen Federal agents running alongside isn't much of a deterrent. All they really do is make the President look more Presidential.
What you need in a film like this is a tough, likable lead, a sympathetic (but not whiny) sidekick/love interest, and a convincing villain. IN THE LINE OF FIRE has all three. Add well-rounded supporting characters, a surprisingly good storyline (from the pen of Jeff Maguire), and brisk direction (by Wolfgang Petersen) and you've got yourself a well-paced thriller worth watching.

Warehouse Freightman Cliff:
Very impressive! All the scepters! How wonderful! I must report this to the superiors at the guild! Perhaps they will reconsider his banishment for "dealings with demons". What does he intend to do with the scepters?
"He will melt them down in order to create something else."


DBC (the ‘sister’ of EDA) was an accidental bootcamp that appear to has the successful teaching/learning model. The learning environment in the bootcamp is quite different from the usual academy style of teaching and learning. From the long time prep work to the intensive 9-week training, students will have the opportunity to learn beyond technical skills of coding. Shereef’s sharing disclosed that the bootcamp also provide the environment for someone to pick up soft skills such as persistency, humility, empathy and self awareness. All these will make the person stand up from the rest of normal programmers during job hunting.
Before listening to Shereef’s sharing, I really viewed EDA bootcamp from the “restaurant mindset”, instead of “kitchen mindset”. What is in the menu? What is the price tag? Is it worth it? All I care about was what am I getting back for the amount of money I paid. From his sharing, I understand that I’m not just in the receiving side, my contribution and commitment could help to shape the experience of every participants in the bootcamp.
Although understanding that I’m like one of the chef in a kitchen, contributing to the making of a broth during the bootcamp, I still do not have any clear idea how and what I could do to contribute to the sucess of the bootcamp. May be I become a mentor to the weaker student, and be a good follower to the stronger student during the pair programming. May be I need to give an honest feedback to help my pairing partner to improve, while the feedback will be delivered in a more positive tone to avoid hurting the feeling of my pairing partner. It will be quite a challenge for me to keep on using positive tones, because I tend to use a lot of negative tones. One thing for sure, I must constantly remind myself that the students in the bootcamp are not those that I’m competing with. Instead, they are part of a big team that we collaborate and support each other to grow.
The sharing from Shereef helped to reinforced my expectation on EDA that the bootcamp is not just about technical training. In fact, I could pick up any technical skills without going through bootcamp training. What I value most, is the oppportunity on the soft-skill development. I’m looking forward to get myself deeply immerse in the environment that allow the growing of the ability of empathy, collaboration and positive articulation. I hope that by the end of the bootcomp, I won't just come out as a web developer only. I hope that I would be transformed to be a good team player, a leader, a mentor, a humble student and an engineer with full of emphathy and self-awareness.
Yes, I'm feeling nervous if this will really help me to transform. Well, let see what happen after a few months from now.

java.lang.Object com.vividsolutions.jts.precision.MinimumClearance
public class MinimumClearance
Computes the Minimum Clearance of a Geometry
.
The Minimum Clearance is a measure of what magnitude of perturbation of the vertices of a geometry can be tolerated before the geometry becomes topologically invalid. The smaller the Minimum Clearance distance, the less vertex pertubation the geometry can tolerate before becoming invalid.
The concept was introduced by Thompson and Van Oosterom [TV06], based on earlier work by Milenkovic [Mi88].
The Minimum Clearance of a geometry G is defined to be the value r such that "the movement of all points by a distance of r in any direction will guarantee to leave the geometry valid" [TV06]. An equivalent constructive definition [Mi88] is that r is the largest value such:
If G has only a single vertex (i.e. is a
Point
), the value of the minimum clearance
is Double.MAX_VALUE
.
If G is a Puntal
or Lineal
geometry,
then in fact no amount of perturbation
will render the geometry invalid.
In this case a Minimum Clearance is still computed
based on the vertex and segment distances
according to the constructive definition.
It is possible for no Minimum Clearance to exist.
For instance, a MultiPoint
with all members identical
has no Minimum Clearance
(i.e. no amount of perturbation will cause
the member points to become non-identical).
Empty geometries also have no such distance.
The lack of a meaningful MinimumClearance distance is detected
and suitable values are returned by
getDistance()
and getLine()
.
The computation of Minimum Clearance utilizes
the STRtree.nearestNeighbour(ItemDistance)
method to provide good performance even for
large inputs.
An interesting note is that for the case of MultiPoint
s,
the computed Minimum Clearance line
effectively determines the Nearest Neighbours in the collection.

Parkinson admits Bainbridge and Taylor could play for Sunderland amid injury crisis
Joel Lynch and Jordan Willis are missing in central defence.
by Jay WilliamsSunderland youngsters Jack Bainbridge and Brandon Taylor are in contention for tonight’s clash with Gillingham, the club’s official website reports.
Phil Parkinson is being forced to use some of his academy players to fill the numbers tonight. With a number of injuries and four players away on international duty, Sunderland’s squad is depleted.
Central defence is a particular area of concern. Joel Lynch is out with a back problem while Jordan Willis has injured his knee. Meanwhile, Tom Flanagan is away with the Northern Ireland squad and Alim Ozturk has missed out with injury recently.
These selection issues could present a rare opportunity for Bainbridge and Taylor. Parkinson needs someone to fill in at centre-half and these academy prospects are in the frame.
Parkinson on Bainbridge and Taylor
Parkinson told a pre-match press conference (via safc.com): “We are taking seven or eight of the youngsters down with us and defensively we are obviously short on bodies.
“The likes of Brandon Taylor and Jack Bainbridge are included, and I am looking forward to seeing them tomorrow.”
TBR’s view
There is no need to risk making Lynch or Willis’ injuries worse, especially with a heavy schedule coming up. It seems like the perfect time to blood Bainbridge and Taylor into the side.
Bainbridge, 21, has previously played in Everton and Swansea City’s academy and he has proven himself in the Sunderland youth teams. Taylor is just 20 but he is catching the eye with his performances.
Both players have EFL Trophy experience but this will be a whole new experience. Playing at Priestfield in the FA Cup would be an excellent learning curve for this pair.

Use the left and right arrow keys to turn the hoop. Make sure that the obstacles don't hit the red or blue!
 (Tip: Use vector mode for better sprite design). Have it turn right and left with the right and left arrows.
2) Create your obstacle sprite. It should have different costumes with different shapes/positions. Get creative!
3) Make your obstacle start at the top of your screen and fall constantly. When it reaches the bottom of the page, have it go back up and change costumes. The same should happen if it hits the red or blue parts of the hoop.
4) Create your score and level variables. Have the score go up each time the obstacle reaches the bottom edge. When you get to 5 points, make the level go up, and reset the score back to 0.
5) Set the score back to 0 every time the obstacle touches the red or blue balls. When the player passes level 5, have the player win and the game end.
6) Make the obstacle fall faster and faster as the level increases.
7) Add some music and special effects! (HINT: Use "Change ghost effect by..." from the "Looks" category for cool fade effects.)

Changing iSCSI LoginTimeout with PowerCLI
Changing iSCSI LoginTimeout on VMware Hosts with PowerCLI
In this blog post we will be explaining how we are changing the iSCSI LoginTimeout and the reasons why we are doing it in this method.
Background
Recently we were going through a code upgrade on our storage arrays and one of the recommendations from Pure support is to increase the iSCSI LoginTimeout prior to upgrading the code. For the uninitiated, VMware defines the LoginTimeout as “Time in seconds the initiator will wait for the login response to finish.” Source
We currently leave this set to the default of 5 seconds. The primary reason for increasing this is so that you don’t login-storm an array when a ESXi host attempts to login to the array. If the host fails it’s first try (by default it would wait 5 seconds) it will retry login for the same target equal to the LoginRetryMax which has a default of 4.
Digging Deeper
You may be surprised - as I was - that you cannot configure this LoginTimeout on a per-target basis. It can only be changed at the iSCSI adapter level so it will effect all targets connected to the adapter you change it on (confirmed w/ VMware support).
When you rescan an entire cluster and/or VMware datacenter it rescans hosts sequentially (prevents login-storms) When you have a failed target during a rescan, it will take exactly as long as (LoginTimeout * LoginRetryMax) to fail each target. This can make storage rescans take a very long time.
Hypothetical Situation:
- 5 VMware hosts
- 1 storage array with 10 LUNs on it
- All 5 hosts see all 10 LUNs. We experience an issue where we need to rescan storage on the hosts and it fails to login to the array for some reason.
- All VMware settings default EXCEPT LoginTimeout
- With the LoginTimeout set to 60 seconds: each host will take 60 seconds to fail each target the first time. It will retry 4 times so each host takes 2400 seconds to rescan. (10 LUNs * 60 seconds each * 4 retries), Rescanning the entire cluster takes 12,000 seconds! 3 hours!! (2400 seconds per host * 5 hosts in total)
- With the LoginTimeout set to 5 seconds: each host will take 5 seconds to fail each target the first time. It will retry 4 times so each host takes 200 seconds to rescan, entire cluster done in 1000 seconds or 16 minutes.
Now imagine that we have a bigger environment with 100 hosts and 200 LUNs. We might not be able to do a storage rescan in under a day with a high LoginTimeout and failed targets in the mix and keep in mind you won’t know if targets are going to fail prior to initiating the rescan!
PowerCLI to Change LoginTimeout
This script will set the LoginTimeout on ALL iSCSI HBAs on ALL hosts in vCenter. This script is rather quick and in our testing we can change 15 hosts (roughly 20 iSCSI HBA’s) in ~3 seconds.
It will only allow you to change the timeout between 5 - 60 seconds (the highest i’ve seen recommended)
Example command: ./Set-ScsiHBALoginTimeout.ps1 -vcenter 'vcenter.fqdn.tld' -user 'domain\user' -pass 'pass' -timeout_sec 10
param(
$vcenter,
$user,
$pass,
$timeout_sec
)
# Make sure we connect to vcenter
try{
Connect-VIServer -Server $vcenter -user $user -pass $pass -force -ErrorAction Stop | out-null
}
Catch{
write-host "WARN: failed to connect to $vcenter, bailing"
exit
}
# Verify the user enters a timeout between 5-60
if($timeout_sec -notin 5..60){
write-host "ERROR: Please enter a timeout_sec between 5 and 60 seconds"
exit
}
write-host "INFO: Starting process to change LoginTimeout"
$vmhs = get-vmhost | sort-object Name
foreach($h in $vmhs){
$iscsi_hbas = $h | get-vmhosthba -type iscsi
if($iscsi_hbas -eq $null){
write-host "$h does not have an Iscsi adapter"
}
else{
foreach($hba in $iscsi_hbas){
$esxcli = get-esxcli -vmhost $h
$esxcli.iscsi.adapter.param.set($hba.device,$false,'LoginTimeout',$timeout_sec) | out-null
write-host "INFO: Host: $h HBA:" $hba "changed LoginTimeout in $timeout_sec seconds."
}
}
}
write-host "INFO: Script completed"
Example output of script run:
./Set-ScsiHBALoginTimeout.ps1 -vcenter 'vcenter.fqdn.tld' -user 'domain\user' -pass 'password' -timeout_sec 5

Checking current LoginTimeout value
A Solution that Works for Our Customers
This environment has multiple different storage vendors in it and who knows what the future will bring. For this reason and the rescan duration increase we have decided to leave the LoginTimeout set to 5 seconds - So if we get into a situation where we need to expand a datastore, present new LUNs, decommission old LUNs, etc. we can do them swiftly and it does not require lowering the timeout to do these tasks quickly.
What we chose to do instead is to script changing this LoginTimeout on all the hosts so it’s impossible to miss any hosts or fat finger the timeout value. It also allows us to change it on command when needed. Just prior to doing the Pure code upgrade we will increase the timeout to what they recommend (30 seconds), do the code upgrade, and then set the hosts back to the 5 second timeout.

Our biggest hurdle is public / government sentiment on privacy coins we feel.
gets01-Dec-18 11:57 AM
do u guys think veruscoin might switch to ouroboros with snarks since that paper was released?
FishyGuts01-Dec-18 11:57 AM
No way.
gets01-Dec-18 11:58 AM
haha ok
FishyGuts01-Dec-18 11:58 AM
@miketout the Lead dev at Verus is a wizard. He has things well under control there. We’re big fans of that project too.
The man helped create windows 95, java, and .net. Most recently was the VP at Microsoft.
Has worked in other tech startups in innovation industries.
gets01-Dec-18 11:59 AM
well, I still think having private proof of stake is a huge advantage, and up till that paper it could only be done with zerocoin
FishyGuts01-Dec-18 11:59 AM
Know he’s found his life love in blockchain. Spoke to him a week ago for a half hour. I was genuinely floored and impressed.
Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to send over your new developments. We’ve got some people and referrals we could discuss too if applicable.
I’m off to bed. It’s 4 AM.
gets01-Dec-18 12:01 PM
sadly they start off the paper with a falsehood
stating it’s the first private pos
as PIVX had private staking with zerocoin back in may
As to the info and validity... with so many small projects and large projects making so many moves and so much innovation, I can forgive them for making that assumption. For certain.
gets01-Dec-18 12:03 PM
yea, I mailed them and they seemed to have honestly missed it
FishyGuts01-Dec-18 12:03 PM

gets01-Dec-18 12:03 PM
hope they’ll add it in a revision though
FishyGuts01-Dec-18 12:04 PM
Much good comes from people who have pride in their work. I’m genuinely curious to see it and when they fix it. Keep me posted.

wow thanks, now I need to download your wallet haha
FishyGuts01-Dec-18 12:05 PM
The bot will hold them securely... you will have to transfer to a sapling address after 12/15/2018 and before 2/15/2019
gets01-Dec-18 12:05 PM
or maybe I’ll stick around and tip the good folks here
FishyGuts01-Dec-18 12:05 PM
No rush.
The bot works in a few other servers too like Space Peso. (Don’t ask, because I don’t know but they seem like good people. )
If you want that or the KMD tipbot or a referral to the dev, let me know.
That being the arrr tip bot.
We provide them free to any other servers that want them.
Ok NOW good night.

after 15 Dec
Cassius01-Dec-18 03:05 PM
What's the best wallet for ARRR, or is it worth waiting until after 15 Dec to get set up now?
SHossain01-Dec-18 03:08 PM
Agama 43d or above or plain CLI
after 15 Dec it will get faster to process z transaction if you use sapling only
sprout will be disabled by 15 Feb 2019

Thanks. Having some problems with Agama. Maybe my laptop though

LoPhatMelk01-Dec-18 05:36 PM
wow is pirate really only going for .035 cents ish?
ComputerGenie 👴👴👴01-Dec-18 06:10 PM
$0.035 not 0.035 cents, but yes
$0.033 is the cost to mine
mrlynch01-Dec-18 06:16 PM
some folks just gotta make a profit
well.... it's a good time to buy
moving some btc to DP
Flexatron01-Dec-18 06:18 PM
Yup
mrlynch01-Dec-18 06:19 PM
if ARRR goes up to just $1 in 3 - 6 months that's a ROI of 3233%
Flexatron01-Dec-18 06:20 PM
Will get dumped to oblivion then unless the hash goes up dramatically
ComputerGenie 👴👴👴01-Dec-18 06:20 PM

not sure where $0.512 a block ($11.78 per $200 investment) is "profit", but OK
mrlynch01-Dec-18 06:20 PM

i know... to actually make a difference to the portofolio you'd need at least 100k to f8ck about with

You know anyone willing to shell out $20-60k a day to make 1.5-2% returns? Me either....(edited)
mrlynch01-Dec-18 06:24 PM
my point exactly... it's not worth the hassle / risk... so, why people do it beats my logic
but hey... that's better for me... snatching coins at silly prices
ComputerGenie 👴👴👴01-Dec-18 06:26 PM
so, why people do it beats my logic
they don't, that's the problem
small to middlin sized dumpers cut the rug out from under profit miners and that's why hash is down 50-80%
if there were a buyer at current price (0.05) for my last 1 day of mining, I'd take a 7650 KMD loss selling
passcombo.com 🏴☠🏴01-Dec-18 06:30 PM
death spiral = less buyers -> less miners -> less buyers ...
till Dec 15 market off
ComputerGenie 👴👴👴01-Dec-18 06:31 PM
well, as long as dumpers be dumpin, only a moron would pay 0.1+
it's buy time. once sapling is integrated value will rise, hopefully price will follow.
ComputerGenie 👴👴👴01-Dec-18 06:35 PM
vosk vid so early and people not understanding sprout needs merged did a bunch to curb enthusiasm
SHossain01-Dec-18 06:35 PM
not sure why people are dumping when sapling is being activated in 2 weeks time
or they just don't realise the power of sapling
ComputerGenie 👴👴👴01-Dec-18 06:36 PM
because they made $4 and that sounds "good enough" to them

I actually like DP... sure volumes aren't anywhere near larger exchanges but that's expected. Being able to regen fresh deposit addresses, supporting a bunch of Komodo ACs, KMD pairs, and Z-deposits is a win in my book.

its not about like or not its about the lazyness of ppl and sure being certain to sell ur stash anytime in the future
if thers only one exchange which is less known, theres the first risk to invest in an new project
bishop01-Dec-18 06:55 PM
Well considering all the trading was initially OTC....
gets01-Dec-18 06:56 PM
I assume(for me personally atleast) people are waiting for development from the pirate team themselves, for instance if they get zspv before zcash or something else thats made by them
bishop01-Dec-18 06:57 PM
Sapling and spv, put a fork in it, it's done.
gets01-Dec-18 06:58 PM
judging by the work that went into getting zerocoin in spv wallets I assume it wont be that easy
ComputerGenie 👴👴👴01-Dec-18 07:03 PM
Well considering all the trading was initially OTC....
every reason that I said it was shit that the claim is "small" "unknown" exchange
If you can trade with some rando that just showed up in some random discord channel, then you can trade on a small exchange that's been up for close to a year

Zoroaster01-Dec-18 07:17 PM
So is this just bad news for Zcash & Monero?
jl777c01-Dec-18 07:18 PM
not sure about the effect on them, but relying on smart contract does not create the same level of privacy as PIRATE
