0.5
. Set the threshold to0.0
to ignore the classification score and return all values.owners
An array of the categories of classifiers to apply. Use
IBM
to classify against thedefault
general classifier, and useme
to classify against your custom classifiers. To analyze the image against both classifier categories, set the value to bothIBM
andme
. The built-indefault
classifier is used if bothclassifierIDs
andowners
parameters are empty. TheclassifierIDs
parameter overridesowners

Specifies the language of the output class names. Can be
en
(English),ar
(Arabic),de
(German),es
(Spanish),it
(Italian),ja
(Japanese), orko
(Korean). Classes for which no translation is available are omitted. The response might not be in the specified language under these conditions:- English is returned when the requested language is not supported.
- Classes are not returned when there is no translation for them.
- Custom classifiers returned with this method return tags in the language of the custom classifier.
failure
A function executed if an error occurs.
success
A function executed with the successful result.
-
Detect faces in images.
Analyze and get data about faces in images. Responses can include estimated age and gender, and the service can identify celebrities. This feature uses a built-in classifier, so you do not train it on custom classifiers. The Detect faces method does not support general biometric facial recognition.

Swift
public func detectFaces( imagesFile: URL? = nil, url: String? = nil, failure: ((Error) -> Void)? = nil, success: @escaping (DetectedFaces) -> Void)
Parameters
imagesFile
An image file (.jpg, .png) or .zip file with images. Include no more than 15 images. You can also include images with the
url
parameter. All faces are detected, but if there are more than 10 faces in an image, age and gender confidence scores might return scores of 0.url
A string with the image URL to analyze. Must be in .jpg, or .png format. The minimum recommended pixel density is 32X32 pixels per inch, and the maximum image size is 10 MB. You can also include images in the
imagesFile
parameter.failure
A function executed if an error occurs.
success
A function executed with the successful result.
-
Create a classifier.
Train a new multi-faceted classifier on the uploaded image data. Create your custom classifier with positive or negative examples. Include at least two sets of examples, either two positive example files or one positive and one negative file. You can upload a maximum of 256 MB per call. Encode all names in UTF-8 if they contain non-ASCII characters (.zip and image file names, and classifier and class names). The service assumes UTF-8 encoding if it encounters non-ASCII characters.
Declaration
Swift
public func createClassifier( name: String, positiveExamples: [PositiveExample], negativeExamples: URL? = nil, failure: ((Error) -> Void)? = nil, success: @escaping (Classifier) -> Void)
Parameters
name
The name of the new classifier. Encode special characters in UTF-8.
positiveExamples
An array of positive examples, each with a name and a compressed (.zip) file of images that depict the visual subject for a class within the new classifier. Include at least 10 images in .jpg or .png format. The minimum recommended image resolution is 32X32 pixels. The maximum number of images is 10,000 images or 100 MB per .zip file.
negativeExamples
A compressed (.zip) file of images that do not depict the visual subject of any of the classes of the new classifier. Must contain a minimum of 10 images.
failure
A function executed if an error occurs.
success
A function executed with the successful result.
-
Delete a classifier.
Declaration
Swift
public func deleteClassifier( classifierID: String, failure: ((Error) -> Void)? = nil, success: @escaping () -> Void)

, or a combination of the two.verbose
Specify
true
to return details about the classifiers. Omit this parameter to return a brief list of classifiers.failure
A function executed if an error occurs.
success
A function executed with the successful result.
-
Update a classifier.
Update a custom classifier by adding new positive or negative classes (examples) or by adding new images to existing classes. You must supply at least one set of positive or negative examples. For details, see Updating custom classifiers. Encode all names in UTF-8 if they contain non-ASCII characters (.zip and image file names, and classifier and class names). The service assumes UTF-8 encoding if it encounters non-ASCII characters. Important: You can’t update a custom classifier with an API key for a Lite plan. To update a custom classifer on a Lite plan, create another service instance on a Standard plan and re-create your custom classifier. Tip: Don’t make retraining calls on a classifier until the status is ready. When you submit retraining requests in parallel, the last request overwrites the previous requests. The retrained property shows the last time the classifier retraining finished.

Hi there, there is a weird interaction between parameter
, namespace
, and tactic
.
def foo : bool → Type := λ _, unit namespace bar section parameter b : bool include b def foo' := foo b #check foo' -- Type example : Type := by exact foo' -- error here end
I have an error message saying that foo' : bool → Type
. I need to write foo' b
to silence the error message.
This is weird because #check foo'
saying that it has type Type
. Could anyone explain to me why it happens like this?
There are other 2 ways to fix the error
1. remove by exact
altogether
2. remove namespace bar
I suspect that it is will have anything to do with namespace and tactic.
Your parameter is included in everything in the section. Try checking foo' outside the section
You should end both the section and the namespace as well or you'll get unexpected errors
parameter
means something like "every single thing here depends on exactly this parameter which will be inserted into every definition and lemma" or something. I don't think anyone uses it in practice
Your parameter is included in everything in the section. Try checking foo' outside the section
Understand that foo' : bool → Type
outside the section but the error arises inside the section, that's why I am confused.
You should end both the section and the namespace as well or you'll get unexpected errors
I have end
at the buttom but forget to copy it to the post, sorry about that.
parameter
means something like "every single thing here depends on exactly this parameter which will be inserted into every definition and lemma" or something. I don't think anyone uses it in practice
Well, I am using it to make Lean namespace looks a little bit more like Agda's parameterised module. Please note that the code I posted earlier is the simplified version of the actual problem I see on my bigger project.
Btw, does the error message that I got is the expected behaviour?
I really wish Lean had parametrised modules
I never use parameters and not many other people use them, so I don't really know how they work and apparently they don't work too well or other people would use them more. Note this before you experiment too much more with parameters :-)
Your definition of foo', because of the parameter and include, is
def foo' (b : bool) := foo b
because of the parameter. In the section the parameter is active so the #check doesn't print it out -- the parameter is an input to every single function in the section and Lean is not going to ever tell you this. Outside the section you can see what's going on.
def foo : bool → Type := λ _, unit namespace bar section parameter b : bool include b def foo' := foo b #check foo' -- Type example : Type := by exact foo' -- error here end #check foo' -- bool → Type end bar
@Kevin Buzzard I understand that foo' : bool → Type
outside the section. But inside the section, up to my understanding, every definition will silently insert the parameter in. But weirdly, it doesn't happen inside the tactic if it is under some namespace. Should I think this as a bug and should try to avoid using parameters?
I think it is indeed a bug, since inside the section and outside of tactic mode,
example : Type := foo'
works as intended (b
is inserted as an argument).
I don't know if it's a bug, but it is certainly abstraction leakage. Inside tactic mode it doesn't have a good grasp of what namespace and sections it's in, so it's hard to simulate parameters correctly

Ordinance 46; Council Meeting 10/02/07
Landmarked in 2007, the Padfield House is one of three homes moved to the 100 block of East Simpson Street in 1905, likely from the Gladstone Mine by its owner William Padfield. The homes were deeded to Padfield’s children, Elizabeth, Myron and Oscar. The home deeded to Oscar now is the Lewis House, home to the Lafayette Miner’s Museum. The landmarked Padfield House is a stylistically simple miner’s cottage that remains architecturally true to the period in which it was constructed. It is currently a commercial building, occupied by owner Brady Van Matre’s construction company and architect Patti Wilder, who was responsible for its restoration. |

All three components have different jobs to do.
HTML structures content on a webpage using various elements. CSS styles the page by telling the browser how to display each element. It can vary for different media types and device sizes.
JavaScript (JS) extends the functionality of the website and allows for real time interactions. We utilise JS for visual effects through to processing and calculating data. One of my favourite functions through JS is the hamburger icon and it has become very common at collapsing the navigation menu. Usually seen when the browser is reduced in size it can also be found on full width pages. Masi Typungato is a great example of how it is utilised.
JS, HTML and CSS are kept separate as it is easier to manage and to adjust code.
Control flow is a sequence of code that is executed based on a set of conditions. They use if / else statements to control the flow of code that is executed. If I was making a carrot cake for work colleagues and one of them was allergic to walnuts I would have to leave them out. The first part of the code asks whether someone is allergic to walnuts and if it’s true then I would use the recipe that excludes the walnuts. But if no one was allergic then I would bakeCake();
using walnuts.
if (allergicWalnuts === true) {
bakeCakeWithoutWalnuts();
}
else {
bakeCake();
}
After baking the cake we would have to clean every baking utensil, appliance, cutlery and crockery. We can create a loop that repeats the process of stacking the dishwasher until the very last utensil is added OR the dishwasher is full. A loop must have an exit otherwise we‘ll create an infinite loop.
An array is a special variable that can hold more than one value at a time.
var devCohort = [“Roa”, “Tieke”, “Kauri”, “Kakapo”];
To access the values we refer to the index number. Say we wanted to sign our cohort “Tieke” to our statement would be:
var name = devCohort[1];
Objects are variables that can contain many values. Values are written as name:value where name is considered a property. In this example firstName, lastName, fluentMaori, and age are all properties.
var student = {
firstName: “Pokare”,
lastName: ”Kareana”,
fluentMaori: true,
age: 44
}
To access the object literal we use objectName.propertyName
or objectName["propertyName"]
.
student.lastName // accesses Pokare
So the difference is that to access a value from an array we use indexing and to access values from object literals we use dot notation or bracket notation.
A function is a block of code designed to perform a particular task. The code is executed when something calls it. The function syntax is outlined below:
function name(parameter1, parameter2) {
code to be executed
}
To call a function we say name(parameter1, parameter2) then the code within the curly brackets is executed. The code can include formulas, conversions, strings etc…
It’s reusable code that can be called anytime in your programme or site by code external to your function.

nXhtml is an addon to Emacs for editing XHTML, PHP and similar things. It is not very well-known, but it looks like at least Drew Yates has found it useful:
nXML mode and the subsequent nXHTML mode for emacs are godsends ...
And that was before I fixed all the bugs ...
One of the main parts of nXhtml is nxhtml-mode, a GNU Emacs major mode that builds on nxml-mode. It knows about XHTML syntax and can check this as you type. It can also tell you what tags and attributes you can use at a certain point and help you insert them.
That feature, which we call completion, is one of the main features of this mode. Another important feature is the ability to mix several languages in one buffer and get the correct syntax highlighting and indentation for each of them.
In nXhtml this is combined with other features to make it more easy to edit web sites (mostly XHTML based but there is support for things like PHP too). Here is a list of important features:
Below are some short notes to get you started using nXhtml. (Maybe you should start by taking a look at the Tutorials?)
You need GNU Emacs 22 (which was released 2007-06-02) or later.
After this files with extensions for example .html will open in nxhtml-mode.
To make nXhtml run faster you can also byte compile the files. You do that with M-x nxhtmlmaint-start-byte-compilation.
To reach many of the features in nXhtml you can use the nXhtml menu. If you do not see that when in a buffer then you can always do M-x nxhtml-minor-mode which will turn it on (or off) for that buffer.
But please notice also the XML menu which contains the nXml menu! (Remember that nXhtml is based on nXml.) When you are using nxhtml-mode this menu is visible when you are in the XHTML parts of a buffer.
nXhtml knows a good deal about XHTML tags and attributes when you are using nxhtml-mode. It can assist you in different ways:
Completion means that you ask Emacs to give you choices to complete what you are currently writing. For example you may have written <b and want to know what tags beginning this way can actually be used at that place in the document. You ask Emacs in nxhtml-mode this by calling the function nxml-complete. This is normally bound to M-Tab.
On some systems, for example MS Windows with an unpatched Emacs this is inconvenient and clashes with Alt-Tab that the window manager uses. There is however a little utility that comes with nXhtml that let you use just Tab for completion, tabkey2-mode. Turn this on with
M-x tabkey2-mode
After this the first Tab press will still do indentation, but the second can do completion.
Validation means checking that what you have written in nxhtml-mode follows the XHTML specifications. If it does not there will be a red underline at the places where something is wrong. To see what is wrong move to this (for example with C-c C-n). A message in the minibuffer will tell you the error.
Notice that the modeline also tells if the document is valid. Most of the times it will however say Invalid maybe just because you are editing and have not yet finished.
For files mixing XHTML with codes, like PHP, you can use something I call Fictive XHTML Validation Headers. That allows you to use XHTML completion even if those files does not have the XHTML headers needed.
nXhtml can automatically divide the buffer into chunks with relevant different major modes (i e languages, like PHP, XHTML etc). This is useful for editing PHP, JSP, eRuby, Django and similar. See And what about Multiple Modes like PHP? for more information.
The links you put in your XHTML documents actually works like links with nxhtml-mode too. To follow a link you can use C-c RET RET. (There are other possibilities too, they all begin with C-c RET.)
If you want to upload your XHTML files, image files etc you can do that from within Emacs. There are entries for this in the nXhtml menu.
When you start to use a new program you often wonder about which keybindings there are to use. If you have not used Emacs before you may feel quite lost because you have looked in all documentation and you have not seen any list of keybindings.
Well, that is how it often is in Emacs. Get use to it ...
But do not panic. Because there is help, probably even better than you are used to - in Emacs dynamic help system. A help system that change if you for example add a keybinding yourself. Try the command C-h b (or F1 b). This list all the keybindings (in their priority order) that are active where you are in Emacs.
You can also try C-h m which gives information about minor modes and the current major mode. There is sometimes information about the keybindings there too.
See Introduction above. Look into the nXhtml menu. And then of course learn some of all the things you can do using the power of Emacs.
If find it very conventient to combine nXhtml with Firefox add-on Firebug. For me Firebug is very good for finding CSS errors.
Completion in nXhtml Mode lets you ask Emacs "What can I type here?". The most important part, the content, can Emacs not help you with yet. However when it comes to XHTML and such things that you really want to get past as easy as possible, then nXhtml mode can assist you.
Perhaps you wonder with "With what?" Well, completion works like this: You position point in your XHML file where you want to write. Now you ask nXhtml what XHTML code you can write there. nXhtml may answer that it can't help you, that happens in some cases.
But most often nXhtml can help you. It knows about tags and where they fit, and it knows about tag attributes. When nXhtml can helpt you it will give you choices you can select from. It may display the choices in a popup menu like in the pictures to the left, or it may use something like the picture below shows. It is actually exactly the same question that is asked in these two cases. You decide by customizing nXhtml mode in Emacs which way it should display the choices. The way below is the standard Emacs way to do display choices. It is fast once you know it, but the popup menus are of course more familiar to computer users today.
That far nXhtml can take you because it knows the DTD for XHTML. (You may wonder about different versions of XHTML, more about that later.)
For certain attributes nXhtml knows their values because the DTD just allows certain values. For some other attribute values for which nXhtml can know little from the DTD alone, like links (src and href attributes) nXhtml can also be helpful. If you want a link to a file, for example, nXhtml lets you browse for the file and then inserts a relative link to it. It can also look for anchors (ie id attributes).
In some cases nXhtml knows more about a tag. From the DTD it knows that an <img> tag should have a src attribute with a value that points to an image. Therefor it prompts you for the value of the src attribute. It is the same with the alt attribute that is required. It even gets the height and width of an image on file if it can and inserts the attributes in the <img> tag.
Well, it is better that you test (and perhaps give some feedback?).
Normally nXhtml does not care that much. It just tells you that you when you have broken the DTD rules. If however you want nXhtml to do less or more of this kind then you can change the variable nxhtml-complete-tag-do-also - but that requires that you knows Emacs lisp. If you do write something useful for this, please tell me.
Oh, I nearly forgot. Do you wonder how to ask nXhtml in Emacs for completion alternatives? That is a nice question to answer. You give a certain command to Emacs to ask for this. That can be done by either:
You can change M-Tab to whatever you want. What it means? Ah, yes, it means "hold down the Meta key and press Tab". That is Emacs jargon and you have to know which key is the Meta key of course. I actually use the left Windows key on my keyboard for Meta. See EmacsW32 home page for some information about this if you are on MS Windows.
This is a small but useful thing (and I added it because some people liked it, it was not my own idea): If some text is selected (in Emacs jargon "if region is active and hilighted") and you use completion to insert a tag then the region will be surrounded by that tag. If region is active like here:
And you then ask for completion:
The result will be that your choice (em here) will surround the region you had selected:
Eh? Ah, yes, you are right. I happened to choose the wrong picture for the result. Sorry.
nXhtml gives you advices about how to handle the XHTML tags, but it does not force you to follow them. You can write whatever you want, but nXhtml anyway observes what you are doing and checks the XHTML code. If you do not follow the DTD rules nXhtml will silently warn you with a red underline, like here (where I have written image instead of img):
(Oh, geeh. Firefox took that before, but not now ...)
If you have for example <div> tags to separate things or long list you may wonder in which of those you are. Nxml Mode can show this. Look in the menus XHTML - XML Path to turn it on. Here is what it looks like. There is header with the label Path: which here shows that we are in a list with id="sum-ul". Note also the yellow color of the tag we are in. The whole path up to the top is colored this way.
A little tip: I found this very useful when I looked at different CSS designs.
I am writing this in nXhtml mode in Emacs. Just after I had written a piece or added an image on my pc I update the web pages on http://OurComments.org/. I do that very easily because of the concept of a site.
A site in nXhtml is in its simplest form just a local directory tree. And that is given a name. In my case I have given it the name nxhtml-doc just to remember what it is about.
To that site I have also added information about uploading and and the http address of the uploaded files. Now if I add an image to the site on my pc all I have to do to upload it to the web site is to open the image in Emacs (yes that is possible, Emacs knows about the most common image formats) and then just from the menus choose Web Site - File Transfer - Upload Single File. That is all.
And then I can (from the XHTML file I am editing) use the command XHTML - File Transfer - View Uploaded File to check that the web page is ok.
As soon as you open an XHTML file in nXhtml mode you will notice that the links you enter looks like links. They are underlined and blue like in a web browser. You may think that that is kind of nice, but why do they look like that?
It is just because they are links. You access them a little bit different in a web browser, just so that it does not interfere with editing. And because you may want to do different things with them. Take a look at the picture below. I have positioned point to a link and then pressed tha App key on my keyboard. That pops up a menu where I can see what I can do with the link:
As you can see I can copy the link (maybe not that useful often). I can open it - and that means edit the linked file in Emacs. That is useful. And then I can view the linked file in a web browser. Can be useful too.
And then I can move between the links.
All this is useful, at least for me. But there are some more things, in the menus XHTML - Links. Check them out, you may like them. They may save you time.
Well, you should notice not because it exactly is the worlds most pretty table of content. But because it is there. And I did not write it. nXhtml mode wrote it for me.
How it works? Just put id attributes on your header tags (h1-h6). Then position point where you want the table of contents. Tell nXhtml mode to write it by using the menus XHTML - Table of Contents.
When you want to change it just ask nXhtml mode to rewrite it.
And you can make it more pretty if you are good at CSS.
That is a problem of course. You need to convert them to XHTML because that is what the browsers and all other tools are best at today.
But don't worry. Didn't I tell you that nXhtml knows about Tidy For XHTML? (It even comes together with nXhtml if you get it with EmacsW32.)
Tidy can convert your HTML files to XHTML. Just open a file in nXhtml mode then use the Tidy menu and choose what you want to do there.
If you do it file-by-file you can compare the "tidied" XHTML version of the file and your old version side by side (using Emacs Ediff command actually - an interactive way to compare). You can also tidy a whole directory tree at once.
nXhtml mode can handle multiple modes in a buffer. The benefits of nXml style completion can still be used. This can even be done when there is no header in the file that tells what DTD to use for the completion.
Mumamo, which is part of nXhtml, implements what it calls multi major modes for handling multiple major modes in a buffer. Instead of turning on a major mode for a buffer you turn on a multi major mode and Mumamo will handle the rest. Multi major modes has names like nxhtml-mumamo, html-mumamo, django-nxhtml-mumamo etc.
When point is in a PHP part then the major mode is switched to php-mode, with all that means. Here you can see how that looks:
If you move the point outside of those <?php ... ?> areas then the mode is automatically switched to nxhtml-mode instead. Now you can use the power of nxhtml-mode and do for example completion, like here:
The switching is done with a short delay so that it does not interfere with your normal editing. That's it. (But maybe there should be a better php-mode? Does someone has any better than the one that comes with nXhtml now?)
Ah, yes. Good question. You are right. nXhtml mode needs a DTD to be able to help you with XHTML and completion. I thought it was impossible for a normal human to get that working.
But it turned out to be surpricingly simple and it works quite nicely now. The first time you do completion of XHTML code in a buffer where you do not have the needed XHTML headers nXhtml mode will ask you for what it calls a fictive XHTML validation header. After that completion should work as usual. A fictive XHTML validation header in nXhtml mode is something that is used in the background for validation. It is not inserted in the buffer, but may be shown on the screen like this:
nXhtml does its best to guess what fictive XHTML Validation Header the buffer needs, but if the default fictive XHTML validation header does not fit you can customize the choices.
Note: Do not try to set the XML schema directly when the XHTML headers are missing in the buffer. Use a fictive XHTML validation header instead.
It has been necessary to replace the nxml-mode style fontification with the sgml-mode style. All other features of nXml/nXhtml modes should still work however. In all other cases the normal fontification colors are used.
Or perhaps you mean the background colors? These are just a visual aid about the dividing into chunks with different major modes and they can be turned off. Do M-x customize-group RET mumamo RET.
nXhtml mode handles for example embedded style sheets the same way as it handles PHP chunks:
Currently it can handle PHP, CSS, JavaScript, eRuby, JSP and some other minor cases. If you can program in elisp it is not a very big deal adding support for other embedded languages. (I do not use all the languages above myself so please give me feedback if there is something you think could be done better.)
Please notice also that each major mode handles completion in its own ways. The popup style completion is currently only used by nXhtml mode, not the other major modes even if they are on the same page.
The use of multi major modes is not constrained to nXhtml. You can use that when editing other files too. To see what multi major modes are currently defined in your Emacs session see the variable mumamo-defined-turn-on-functions.
The routines dividing into chunks with different major modes is not that very supersmart. They do not know much about the languages of the major modes. So if you write something like this:
<?php echo '<'?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?'>'; ?>
it will get very, very confused. If you are not fond of that you better write it like this instead:
<?php echo '<'; echo '?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?'; echo '>'; ?>
For a similar problem attribute values computed by PHP.
When editing PHP sometimes the validation of the XHTML part gets quite upset. You may even think that it is unuseful (since trying to complete gives you nothing), but it is not. Here is what you can do:
And maybe you do not think the background colors when using Multiple Major Modes is very smart? Then just go ahead and remove them. Customize. M-x customize-group RET mumamo RET.
Some file associations are changed within Emacs to get multiple modes to work without requiring the user to do anything. Good for a new user I guess, but I understand that old Emacs users may want more control over this. If you are one of them then please look in nxhtml-autoload.el which is where the associations are made.
Not for you? Ah, wait a minute. Blogging, that is exactly one of the things that I myself use this for.
When you blog you only write part of an XHTML page, so you may think that all the nicities of nXhtml mode like validation and completion does not work. They do. (If you wonder how, then please read But I Have No DTD Links In My PHP Files. Though you do not have to read this to start using nXhtml for writing blog texts and comments.)
The setup for blogging is simple
M-x customize-group RET as-external RET
You just need to turn as-external on there.With this setup you just press F2 in any text area in Firefox and then you got the text to edit in Emacs - using nXhtml for completion etc. Finish and save with C-x #.
There are a lot of other things in the package too, please see the nXhtml menu in Emacs. You can for example find a n-back-game (if you do not know what it is now, do not worry, just try it and you will learn - and understand why I put it there).

A CIVIL ACTION ***1/2. Directed, written, executive-produced by Steven Zaillian. From the book by Jonathan Harr. Photography, Conrad L. Hall. Editing,Wayne Wahrman. Production design, David Gropman.Music, Danny Elfman.Produced by Scott Rudin, Robert Redford and Rachel Pfeffer. Cast: John Travolta (Jan Schlichtmann), Robert Duvall (Jerome Facher), Tony Shalhoub (Kevin Conway), William H. Macy (James Gordon), Zeljko Ivanek (Bill Crowley), Bruce Norris (William Cheeseman), Kathleen Quinlan (Anne Anderson), Peter Jacobson (Neil Jacobs), Mary Mara (Kathy Boyer), James Gandolfini (Al Love), Stephen Fry (Pinder ), Dan Hedaya (John Riley), Sydney Pollack (Al Eustis), et al. A Touchstone release.113 minutes. PG-13.
In these days of lawyer-jokes, the legal profession could use some redemption. It comes in "A Civil Action," which is excellent, intelligent, touching,complex, impeccably scripted, directed, produced and beautifully served by all its performers.
It's a true story, one that gave birth to a prize-winning book. In the 1970s, in Woburn, Mass., many children died of leukemia. It was a mystery for most people, but not for their parents who identified the culprit: water polluted --better yet, poisoned--by two industrial giants, the Grace Co, and Beatrice Foods.
The Boston firm of Jean Schlichtmann (Travolta), a personal-injury lawyer (aka an ambulance chaser) is doing very well. When the children's families ask him to take their case, Travolta politely declines. On the way to Woburn in his speeding Porsche, he gets a ticket. On the way back,whether by cinematic device or real coincidence-- I cannot tell , but it matters little--comes a second ticket, next to the very location of the toxic dumping.
Is Schlichtmann having an epiphany? Does it dawn on him that a win over the mega-corporations could fill his firm's coffers? Is it a combination of both? Hard to tell. But he takes the case and, in the long run, becomes haunted by it, to the point that he and his associates have to keep borrowing from banks, mortgaging their possessions, homes, insurance policies, and going broke.
The fluid, meticulous but unforced script and direction are by Steven Zaillian, who rightly jumped to fame with his scenario for Schindler's List. His credits also include the writing (from other true-story books) the hospital-based Awakenings, and The Search for Bobby Fisher (Zaillian's first directorial job) about a child who was a chess prodigy.
All those titles, plus the scenario for the fictional Jack the Bear, are of works that move and highlight Zaillian's unquestionable compassion. He moves you without resorting to kitsch, phony dramatics, manipulation of emotions. A Civil Action avoids flamboyance, yet shines by its empathy for human misery. It is also a great thriller-plus-courtroom drama, superior because of its (mostly) low-key approach, its refusal to yield to flashy dramatics, its exceptionally good characterizations, whether full-blown or just sketched in.
At the root of the film we have a David and Goliath story of common working-class people against corporate King Kongs, and of a small law firm versus the infinite funds of Grace and Beatrice. The latter's platoons of lawyers are headed by a powerhouse memorably --if a little too colorfully-- played by Robert Duvall, a prince of foxes.
Every moment counts in the suspenseful depiction of who will outsmart whom, which strings will be pulled. Each deposition is a self-contained, mesmerizing drama. We are made painfully conscious that this David is not the Biblical one; that lawsuits seldom win outright; that the whole procedure is a preamble to settlements; that of fifty appeals, only five win in the courts.
Of course, the film gets its momentum and its thrills from the use of the tricks of the movie trade, but these are in pastels rather than screaming colors. From photography to editing, from framing to continuity, from dialogue or confrontations to the first-rate score by Danny Elfman, the picture remains discreet and unexplosive.
To put the movie in a historical context, we are, in a sense, in postmodern, post-post-post-Frank Capra populist territory of the little people and the Masters of the Land, all framed by the fact-of-life that Justice and the Law are far from synonymous.
Details are chosen with extraordinary care, from repressed tearfulness, to the gradual impoverishment of the smaller law-firm, to the Harvard Club encounter of Travolta and Grace's CEO. He is wonderfully, quirkily played by director Sydney Pollack.
As for Travolta --or should I say Lazarus? -- I'll just say that he continues his extraordinary comeback like a speeding bullet.

how does the brain process visual information under the dynamic conditions of natural movement?
we found that V1 neurons encode eye/head position, and respond to gaze shifts in a temporal sequence determined by spatial frequency tuning
we also found that V1 is important for the ability of mice to judge distance under binocular and monocular conditions
finally, we showed that activation of serotonin-2a receptors, which are associated with hallucinations in people with schizophrenia and in psychedelic drug administration, reduces sensory drive in visual cortex and disrupts contextual and temporal processing of visual inputs


This is my first stab at an iPhone project. I’m writing an app that consumes an RSS feed and parses it to retrieve a few bits of information for display on the screen. This is my first attempt at an implementation. Coming from a .NET background, it is quite a paradigm shift when switching to the heavily convention based world of Cocoa development.
If I was writing this app in .NET, I’d go out looking for the proper class libraries to parse the XML and begin framing out a class to perform all the functions I needed to populate an object to be persisted to the UI.
When researching the best way to do this, I found 2 prevalent methods of parsing XML in Cocoa:
I decided to go with NSXMLParser because it seemed like the path of least friction to get started with. NSXMLParser is a stream based reader. It basically reads the entire XML tree character by character and fires off events via delegate calls when it encounters useful information. I found this model very easy to use. After some trial and error, I’ve got it working well for my current project.
I am parsing the xml feed for Woot.com. The following is an abbreviated snippet of the elements I am interested in. The actual feed has a lot more info in it, but this should give you a feel for the structure:

Defining the Model Object
The first thing I did was create a model object which would encapsulate the element values from the rss feed that I was interested in. Here is the code for the class:
Next, to make my life easier, I defined a class to define some constants. These constants define the string values I will be searching for as I parse the XML.
NSXMLParser works using delegate callbacks to let you hook into events that you are interested in. Most of the examples I found online used delegate methods right inside the viewcontroller to accomplish the parsing. Since I have several views which are going to take advantage of this functionality, I decided to split it out into a worker class. Let’s construct this class (I named it XMLParser) piece by piece:
XMLParser.h
XMLParser Header
1234567891011121314151617181920
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>@classConstants; //Forward declaration of the Constants class@classSaleItem; //Forward declaration of the SaleItem model object class@interfaceXMLParser : NSObject{NSMutableString*currentValue;//This will hold element values as we build them piece by pieceBOOLitemElementInProgress;// This will determine if we are currently parsing an elementSaleItem*saleItem;// Instance of our model object}@property(nonatomic,retain)NSMutableString*currentValue;@property(nonatomic,retain)SaleItem*saleItem;@propertyBOOLitemElementInProgress;-(BOOL)parse;// This performs the parsing of the file-(id)initWithSaleItem:(SaleItem*)aSaleItem;// Custom initializer-(void)trimString;// Small convenience method to remove whitespace@end
Building XMLParser.m
Lets start with our basic shell:
XML Parser Implementation
123456789101112131415161718
#import "Constants.h"#import "SaleItem.h"#import "XMLParser.h"@implementationXMLParser// Synthesize our properties@synthesizecurrentValue;@synthesizeitemElementInProgress;@synthesizesaleItem;// Make sure objects are released-(void)dealloc{[currentValuerelease];[saleItemrelease];[superdealloc];}@end
Now, let’s create the initializer. Add the following code directly after the property
@synthesize calls:
Initializer
123456789
// Sets the saleItem property to a SaleItem object passed in -(id)initWithSaleItem:(SaleItem*)aSaleItem{if(self=[superinit]){[selfsetSaleItem:aSaleItem];[selfsetItemElementInProgress:NO];}returnself;}
I am initializing the class this way so I can populate the SaleItem inside of XMLParser and still have access to it from the calling class (a ViewController) when I’m done parsing.
Before we get into how to instantiate NSXMLParser and use it to parse a file, let’s set up the delegate methods to get the data we need out of the file.
I usually put delegate methods at the bottom of the file, right after a #pragma mark definition to delineate this group of methods from the rest of the code. Hop down to the bottom of XMLParser.m, and place this code just prior to @end:
Delegate Method
12345678910111213141516171819202122232425
#pragma mark NSXMLParser Delegate Calls// This method gets called every time NSXMLParser encounters a new element-(void)parser:(NSXMLParser*)parserdidStartElement:(NSString*)elementNamenamespaceURI:(NSString*)namespaceURIqualifiedName:(NSString*)qualifiedNameattributes:(NSDictionary*)attributeDict{// If element is named "item", set bool to true so we know// we are inside the element in other methods. This is needed// because "item" contains most of the data we needif([elementNameisEqualToString:ITEM]){[selfsetItemElementInProgress:YES];}}// This method gets called for every character NSXMLParser finds.-(void)parser:(NSXMLParser*)parserfoundCharacters:(NSString*)string{// If currentValue doesn't exist, initialize and allocateif(!currentValue){currentValue=[[NSMutableStringalloc]init];}// Append the current character value to the running string// that is being parsed[currentValueappendString:string];}
The final delegate method is fired when NSXMLParser reaches the end of an element. Here is the place we can be sure we have gotten the full value of the element, and can now persist that data to our model object for use. right after the foundCharacters method, add this method:
// This method is called whenever NSXMLParser reaches the end of an element-(void)parser:(NSXMLParser*)parserdidEndElement:(NSString*)elementNamenamespaceURI:(NSString*)namespaceURIqualifiedName:(NSString*)qName{[selftrimString];// Remove whitespace with a convenience methodif([elementNameisEqualToString:ITEM]){[selfsetItemElementInProgress:NO];// If we are currently on the "item" element, then do not save value}// If we are processing an element inside of "item", // then determine if we need to save the value if(self.itemElementInProgress){// Now check the element id against the ones we are // interested in (using the Constants class values).// If we find one, set the corresponding property on the // SaleItem objectif([elementNameisEqualToString:TITLE]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemTitle:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:PRICE]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemPrice:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:THUMBNAIL_IMAGE]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemThumbnaillUrl:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:SUBSTANDARD_IMAGE]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemSubstandardImageUrl:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:STANDARD_IMAGE]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemStandardImageUrl:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:DETAIL_IMAGE]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemDetailImageUrl:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:DESCRIPTION]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemDescription:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:SHIPPING_PRICE]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemShippingCost:currentValue];}if([elementNameisEqualToString:SALE_URL]){[[selfsaleItem]setItemSaleUrl:currentValue];}}[currentValuerelease];currentValue=nil;}
The Parse Method
Finally, the whole process is started by the parse method:
Parse Method
123456789101112131415161718
-(BOOL)parse{// Create and initialize an NSURL with the RSS feed address and use it to instantiate NSXMLParserNSURL*url=[[NSURLalloc]initWithString:@"http://www.woot.com/salerss.aspx"];NSXMLParser*parser=[[NSXMLParseralloc]initWithContentsOfURL:url];// Tell NSXMLParser that this class is its delegate[parsersetDelegate:self];// Kick off file parsing[parserparse];// Clean up[urlrelease];[parsersetDelegate:nil];[parserrelease];returnYES;}
Final Notes
Some final thoughts on the methodology I am using:
I want to get rid of the if statements and use Key-Value coding to set property values. I haven’t gotten the chance to refactor this
I am very new to Cocoa, and any suggestions/comments are welcome and encouraged!

Facility Implementation Checklist
Below is a checklist of things that should be done and how to do them during rollout:
-
Disable server laptop lid to hibernate/shutdown when lid is closed. This is done to protect the laptop's monitor and keyboard from dust and potential damage.
- edit the file
/etc/systemd/logind.conf
and change the line#HandleLidSwitch=hibernate
toHandleLidSwitch=ignore
. Don't forget to uncomment the line by removing#
- edit the file

ssh in to the server with
ssh openmrs@IPADDRESS
and then get into the running container withsudo docker exec -it openmrseregister bash
thenvi /var/www/bahmniapps/i18n/home/locale_en.json
and then look forLOGIN_PAGE_HEADER_TEXT
variable and change it accordingly. -
Create usernames for all health facility staff
- browse to IPADDRESS/openmrs and login
- when logged in, go to Administration -> Manage Users -> Add User. Don't forget to search for the user's account before adding a new user account
- check on appropriate roles

thenvi /var/www/bahmniapps/i18n/home/locale_en.json
and thenmysql -u root -p
enter password when prompted, thenuse openmrs
and then run this query to see all location for your site. For example if you're in Lithipeng Health Center you can runselect location_id, name, description, retired from location where description like '%lithipeng%'
and then you'll something like this:
+---------------+-----------------+--------------+------------+
| location_id | name | description | retired |
+---------------+-----------------+--------------+------------+
| 554 | Lithipeng HC | Lithipeng HC | 1 |
| 555 | ART/TB Clinic | Lithipeng HC | 1 |
| 556 | MCH Clinic | Lithipeng HC | 1 |
| 557 | HTS General OPD | Lithipeng HC | 1 |
+---------------+-----------------+--------------+------------+4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Then update retired to be 0 with
update set location retired=0 where location_id=554 AND location_id=555 AND location_id=556 AND location_id=557;
NB: Creation of locations is managed centrally and your role is just to enable/disable locations so that we mantain identical schemas of the database across all health facilities in the country. This will help in making Health Information Exchange easy.

Filters
Filters can be defined as:
- Constant filters
- SQL expression filters
- Dictionary filters
- Range filters
- Subquery filters
- Inner links
Each of filter type is defined by own special attribute of data object class. Each of attributes has parameters: Source - data source alias of filtered field, FieldName - filtered field name, Operation - filter operation (optional, default is FilterOperation.Equal), Combination - filter group name (optional, default is root filter group). Above this every filter attribute has their own specific parameters described below.
Filter operation is defined by enum FilterOperation:
- Equal - equal
- NotEqual - not equal
- LessThan - less then
- GreaterThan - greater then
- LessThanOrEqual - less or equal
- GreaterThanOrEqual - greater or equal
- In - field value in range or subquery
- NotIn - field value is not in range or subquery
- Exists - subquery returns one or more rows
- NotExists - subquery returns no rows
- Like - field value correlated with find expression
- NotLike - field value not correlated with find expression
- OuterJoin - left outer join link between query sources (tables or inner views)
- Contains - field value correlated with full-text search
- NotContains - field value not correlated with full-text search
Filter group
Filter group can be defined by FilterCombinationAttribute with parameters: Name - filter group unique name, Combination - logical operation between filters and subgroups inside group (optional, default is FilterCombination.And), Parent - parent filter group name (optional, can be omitted for filter groups with parent - root filter group).
Logic operation inside filter group is defined by enum Combination:
- And - and
- Or - or
[FilterCombination("OrGroup" /* group filter name */,
Combination: Combination.OR /* logical operation */)]
Constant filters
Constant filters can restrict query by constant value. This filter is defined by ConstantFilterAttribute, with specific (over described above) parameters: Name - filter name (will be transformed to query parameter name), ConstantType - constant type (see below) and ConstantValue - constant value depends on ConstantType.
Constant types is defined by enum FilterConstantType:
- Const - value of ConstantValue.
- Variable - value of variable with name equals ConstantValue.
- CurrentDate - current date.
- CurrentDateTime - current date/time.
- CurrentDateTimeUTC - current date/time (UTC).
[ConstantFilter("FilterByZero" /* filter name */,
"P" /* table alias */,
"discount" /* DB field name */,
0m /* decimal constant value */,
Operation: FilterOperation.Equal /* filter operation */,
ConstantType: FilterConstantType.Const /* constant type */)]
SQL expression filters
To define filter over SQL expression used ExpressionFilterAttribute with specific (over described above) parameter: ExpressionText - depends on value can be:
- subquery alias,
[ExpressionFilter("P" /* table alias */,
"discount" /* field name */,
"D" /* ExpressionText: subquery alias */,
Operation: FilterOperation.In /* filter operation */)]
- private static field name contains dynamic definition of SQL expression,
[ExpressionFilter("P" /* table alias */,
"discount" /* field name */,
"AllowedDiscount" /* ExpressionText: SQL expression description field name */,
Operation: FilterOperation.NotEqual /* filter operation */)]
...
//Private static field of mapped class marked with SqlExpression attribute
[SqlExpression]
private static Calculate<int> AllowedDiscount = x => x.Case<Product, int>(
z => z.Field<bool>("is_vip"), z => 0, 1.SetExpression(z => 10));
- plain SQL expression text.
[ExpressionFilter("P" /* table alias */,
"discount" /* field name */,
"case P.is_vip when 1 then 10 else 0 end" /* ExpressionText: plain SQL expression */,
Operation: FilterOperation.NotEqual /* filter operation */)]
Important
If possible do not use plain SQL expressions. It possibly use specific SQL dialect features not supported by other DBMS or providers.
Range filters
To define filter checks field value over array of values used RangeFilterAttribute with specific (over described above) parameter: Range - array of values to filter on.
[RangeFilter("P" /* table alias */,
"discount" /* field name */,
new[] {0,5,10} /* range of values */,
Operation: FilterOperation.In /* filter operation */)]
Dictionary filters
Dictionaries surrogate keys may varied over one instance to another, and names can be changed by users. Sometimes business logic need to operate with the concrete value of dictionary. Because of this it's recommended to add into dictionary DB structure a special unique text field - mnemonic code.
XData supports using mnemonic code when define filters on dictionary value - dictionary filters. They defined by DictionaryFilterAttribute with specific (over described above) parameters: DictionaryTable - dictionary table name, DictionaryId - dictionary id field name, DictionaryCode - dictionary mnemonic code field name, DictionaryValue - mnemonic code value to filter query on, ValueIsVariable - flag DictionaryValue contains not a value but name of variable with value.
Tip
In case filter field name is equals dictionary id field name, parameter FieldName can be omitted.
Important
This filter can be used when dictionary has simple (one field only) identity field and mnemonic code field. But it's a very common case.
[DictionaryFilter("t_doc_state" /* dictionary table name */,
"doc_state_id" /* dictionary id field name */,
"code" /* dictionary mnemonic code field name */,
"CREATED" /* mnemonic code value */,
"D" /* filtered table alias */)]
Inner links
To define links between data sources inside query used LinkAttribute with specific parameters: LinkedSourceAlias - linked table alias, LinkedFieldName - linked table field name (optional, can be omitted when equals with FieldName).
Tip
Inner links can be used to define optional filters. To specify role in optional filter chain need to set parameter PrimaryFilter to true.
[Link("D" /* table alias */,
"doc_id" /* field name */,
"DD" /* linked table alias */)]
Subquery filters
To define filters checks field value is correspond subquery results used SubqueryFilterAttribute with specific (over defined above) parameter: Subquery - subquery alias (see Subqueries). Inner view can not be used with subquery filters.
[SubqueryFilter("D" /* table alias */,
"doc_state_id" /* field name */,
"A" /* subquery alias */,
Operation: FilterOperation.In /* filter operation */)]
When flag PrimaryFilter is set to true optional part of query is defined by followed rules: when one of linked data sources is skipped then other one will skipped too. When base table of subquery is skipped then subquery is skipped completely.
Subquery links
Links with subqueries is used to link not table fields but properties of base class and subquery mapped class including hidden properties. To link with subquery or inner view used SubqueryLinkAttribute with parameters: Subquery - subquery alias, SubqueryProperty - linked property from subquery, PropertyName - optional, linked property from base class (when omit, base class property name is equal SubqueryProperty), also optional properties: Operation, Combination and PrimaryFilter is supported. They was described above in topics Filters and Inner links.
[SubqueryLink("H" /* subquery alias */,
"DocId" /* subquery property to link */)]
When flag PrimaryFilter is set to true optional part of query is defined by followed rules: when subquery is skipped, then data source linked to subquery by this filter will be skipped too, and skip data sources analysis will continue inside base class (see Inner links).

First off, the audio in this episode is bad and I apologize. I didn't realize until we had recorded for an hour that the audio was being recording through the built-in speaker on the laptop, not the mics/mixer. I made this mistake once in Arizona and now I've made it again...I've learned my lesson.
Andy, Corey and Kurt describe the Ivy Envy Bus Trip to the Cubs/Giants game on Saturday. If you were there or saw it on TV, you probably know what our experience was. We also discuss Randy Wells' potential return and the bad news from Mesa about Andrew Cashner. We also talk about the Cubs' options with Tyler Colvin. We also choose a winner for the Ryan Theriot photo caption contest.
We also give a little air-time for local band/Cubs fans/Ivy Envy fans The Lion in Rome and play a song off their new demo at the end of the show.
