In 1993 world wide web was hard to use and find information. Marc Andressen developed Mosaic browser to help individuals use the World Wide Web by adding images,videos etc. It was released for free in 1993. Jim Clarke started Netscape with the Mosaic browser team. When they started working on Netscape they faced competition from Bill Gates. IN 1993 90% of world PCs were running microsoft software. The tech giants like IBM couldn't compete with Microsoft. Microsoft was very vigorous about the competition and they wanted to crush Netscape.
Netscape Communications was one of the fastest growing companies ever made. The founder of Mosaic developed the Netscape browser. Microsoft was aware about Netscape and they tried to bring them in. But Netscape wasn’t interested in working with Microsoft. The Netscape browser was a success instantly and it worried Microsoft.
People started seeing browsers as an alternative to Windows OS. This made Microsoft compete with Netscape. Microsoft met with Netscape in 1995 and tried to buy Netscape for $1 million. That way Microsoft broke the law by using their monopoly to crush other companies.
Netscape went public faster than other companies and made a lot of money. They often criticized Microsoft softwares . Netscape was immensely popular and no one thought Microsoft or anyone could compete with it. This made Microsoft align all their resources against the Netscape. Microsoft came up with Internet Explorer.
Microsoft used their influence to force computer manufacturers not to install Netscape and only install Internet Explorer by default. Microsoft gave away Internet explorers for free with their operating system. By 1997 Microsoft won the browser war and Netscape found it hard to compete with free Internet explorers by charging a fee to customers for their products. A year later AOL acquired netscape. Jim Clarke and other Netscape founders millions of dollars.
Though the browser war was over Microsoft had to face the US department of justice lawsuit because of the antitrust violations. Microsoft was announced guilty by the judge and Microsoft had to be broken down that was later reversed in an appeal.However, Microsoft lost its value and Bill Gates left the CEO position to do philanthropic work.


Y Vote
Our Mission:
Our goal is to raise voter turnout in the United States, which has some of the lowest voter turnout percentages of any developed country.
Why vote?
Voting is a fundamental process in the democratic system. Without strong voting turnout, our government does not function as intended.
With every election since the 1990, voter turnout has been steadily decreasing in the United States while other developed countries' turnouts have been increasing.
Every year, less and less people are having their opinion heard and taken into consideration by the leaders of the United States.
It is up to you, and everyone that can vote, to change this reality and cast your vote.

Probably some, if not all, of the six men in the deck-house of the West Wind were in the habit of taking intoxicating liquors when they were ashore, and when it was served out on board of the ship in conformity with the rules and traditions of the navy. The commander and his executive officer labored for the promotion of total abstinence among the officers and crew. More than the usual proportion of the men commuted their “grog ration” for money, through the influence of the principal officers.
While the commander of the present expedition accepted the aid of the powerful ally, “apple-jack,” in the service of his country, drinking freely appeared to him to be about the same thing as going over to the enemy; and he could not permit his men to turn traitors involuntarily, when he knew they would not do so of their own free will and accord. He had settled the liquor question to his own satisfaction in the deck-house, returning the bottle to French.
When Graines went below, a minute or two later than Captain Sullendine, he saw his new superior in the act of tossing off another glass of whiskey, as he concluded it was from the label on the bottle which stood on the cabin table. He had been considerably exhilarated before, and he was in a fair way to strengthen the ally of the loyalists by carrying his powerful influence to the head of the commander of the intending blockade-runner. The captain seated himself at the table, and Christy saw that he had a flat bottle in his breast-pocket.
“Now, Mr. Balker, we had better seal up the bargain we’ve made with forty drops from this bottle,” said he, as he poured out a glass for himself, regardless of the fact that he had just indulged; and at the same time he pushed the bottle and another glass towards the new mate.
Graines covered the lower part of the glass with his hand, and poured a few drops into it. Putting some water with it from the pitcher, he raised the tumbler in imitation of the captain.
“Here’s success to the right side,” added the master, as he drank off the contents of the glass.
“I drink that toast with all my mind, heart, and soul,” added the engineer, with decided emphasis, though he knew that “the right side” did not always convey the same idea.
“Help yourself, Mr.— I’ve forgot your name, Second Mate,” he added as he moved towards the companion ladder.
“Jerry Sandman, sir, and I will help myself to what I want,” replied Christy.
“That’s right, Mr. Sandman; make yourself at home in this cabin. I must go on deck and take a look at the Tallahatchie,” added the master as he went up the ladder, followed by Graines.
The lieutenant helped himself to a glass of water, after rinsing the tumbler, for that was what he wanted. Sopsy the cook immediately appeared, bearing a tray on which were several dishes of eatables, bread and ham being the principal. The bottle was in his way; and after he had drunk off half a tumblerful of its contents, he removed it to the pantry. He proceeded to set the table.
“Oft in der chizzly night, ’fore slumber’s yoke hab tooken me,’ hummed Sopsy as he worked at the table.
“Where is this schooner bound, Sopsy?” asked Christy.

“That bourn is Nassau, I reckon,” laughed the lieutenant.
“I s’pose she’s gwine dar if she don’t go to dat boon where no trab’lers come back agin,” answered Sopsy seriously. “Be you Meth’dis’ o’ Bab’tis’, Massa Mate?”
“Both, Sopsy.”
“Can’t be bof, Massa.”
“Then I’m either one you like.”
“That ain’t right, Massa Secon’ Mate, ’cordin’ as you was brung up,’ said the cook, shaking his head violently, as though he utterly disapproved of the mate’s theology.
“I’m a theosophist, Sopsy.”
“A seehossofist!” exclaimed the cook, dropping a plate in his astonishment. “We don’t hab none o’ dem on shore in de Souf. I reckon dey libs in de water.”
“No; they live on the mountains.”
“We hain’t got no mount’ns down here, and dat’s de reason we don’t hab none on ’em,” added Sopsy as he went to the pantry; but presently returned with a plate of pickles in one hand and the whiskey bottle in the other. “Does dem sea-hosses drink whisker, Massa Secon’ Mate?”
“They never drink a drop of it.”
“Dis colored pusson ain’t no sea-hoss, and he do drink whiskey when he kin git it,” added the cook; and he half filled a tumbler with the contents of the bottle, and drank it off at a single gulp.
He had hardly placed it on the table in the middle of the dishes before the captain came below. His first step was to take a liberal potation from the bottle. As he raised it to the swinging lamp, he discovered that the fluid had been freely expended in his absence.
“You’ve punished this bottle all it deserves,” said he when he perceived that its level had been considerably lowered, and he did not ask the new officer to join him. “That’s all right, Mr. Sandman; but I don’t want you to take more than you can manage to-night, for we have a big job on our hands, and we want our heads where we shall be able to find them. Now go on deck, and learn what you can about the vessel, for we hain’t got but half an hour more before the Tallahatchie goes to sea. We may have lots of music after we get outside; but I reckon our steamer can outsail anything the Yankees have got on the blockade. Don’t drink no more, Mr. Sandman; and when we git to Nassau you can have a reg’lar blowout.”
“I won’t touch another drop before we get out of the bay, Cap’n Sullendine,” protested Christy, without betraying the misdemeanor of the cook, as doubtless it was.
“That’s right, Mr. Sandman; we must all have our heads on our shoulders to-night,” said the captain, as he drank off the potion he had prepared.
Christy wished to hold the commander to his own advice; but that would have been fighting on the wrong side for him, and Sopsy escaped a reprimand, if not a kick or two, by his forbearance. By this time the bottle was nearly empty; but the skipper put it under lock and key in a closet, which seemed to be well filled with others like it. Christy went on deck, in obedience to the order he had received, and found the engineer on the quarter-deck buried in the fog, which was just then more dense than at any time before.
“The captain’s pretty well set ’up,’ isn’t he Christy?” said Graines in a low tone.

“All right; I think we can manage this craft very well without him,” added Graines with a smile, which could not be seen in the darkness.
But the conversation was interrupted at this point by the appearance of the cook, whose legs were more tangled up by his tipples than his master’s. He delivered the request of Captain Sullendine that they should come into the cabin, and partake of the lunch which had been set out for them. As they moved towards the companion, they saw Sopsy creep over to the alley where Bokes had been sleeping, and take up the bottle of apple-jack Christy had given him, and drink from it. It was evident to them that the cook could not be much longer in condition for any duty.
The two mates went below as invited, and found the captain at the table. He had brought out the bottle of whiskey, and was eating of the dishes before him, but plainly with little relish.
“Have another little drink, Mr. Balker; but I think Mr. Sandman had better not take anymore,” said the master, whose speech was rather thick by this time.
“Thank you, Captain Sullendine; I will do a little in that way, for we are likely to have a very damp night of it,” replied Graines, as he helped himself, though he did not take ten drops.
“A little does one good; but it don’t do to take too much when we have very important business on our hands. After that one, Mr. Balker, I advise you not to take any more till we get clear of the blockaders,” added the skipper, as he emptied the bottle into his glass.
The ham on the table was of excellent quality, and the two mates ate heartily of it, with the ship-bread. The last dose the captain had taken appeared to cap the climax, and he could no longer eat, or talk so as to be clearly understood. When the mates had finished their lunch, they saw that the skipper had dropped asleep in his chair. They rose from their places, and rattled the stools. The noise roused the sleeper, and he sprang to his feet with a violent start.
“What’s time’z it, Mr. Zbalker?” he demanded, catching hold of the table to avoid falling on the cabin floor.
He seemed to be conscious that he was not presenting a perfectly regular appearance to his new officers; and he dropped into his chair, making a ludicrous effort to stiffen his muscles and put on his dignity, but it was a failure.
“Quarter-past two, Captain Sullendine,” replied Graines in answer to the question.
“Most an hour more ’fore we git started,” stammered the invalid. “I didn’t sleep none last night, I’m sleepy. I’m go’n to turn in for half an hour, ’n then I’ll be on deck ready for busi— ready for buzness.”
Graines assisted him to his stateroom, for he could not walk, and he was afraid he would fall and hurt himself. He helped him into his berth, and arranged him so that he could sleep it off, and he did not care if he did not do so before the next day. He waited till he had dropped off into a deep slumber, and then joined Christy in the cabin.
“If I had not been a temperance man before, I should be now,” said the lieutenant. “It is just as well that the captain is clean over the bay, for we might have been obliged to shoot him if he had been sober.”
“But we could have taken possession of the vessel in spite of him, if the steamer had not interfered,” replied Graines, as he led the way to the deck. “I don’t see that we have anything to do but wait for the moving of the waters, or for the moving of the steamer. I suppose our men are all right forward.”
“I have no doubt of it, though I have not seen them lately. I gave one of the bottles of apple-jack the captain sent forward for them to Bokes, and poured the contents of the other into Mobile Bay. I think we had better go forward and look the vessel over,” said Christy.
They had gone but a few steps before they stumbled over the body of Sopsy, who had evidently succumbed to the quantity of firewater he had consumed. He had assisted Bokes to empty the bottle given to him, and both of them were too far gone to give an alarm if they discovered at any time that something was wrong about the movements of the West Wind.
They found the Belleviters lounging about on the cotton bales, some of them asleep, and others carrying on a conversation in a low tone. They were glad to see their officers, who told them the time for some sort of action was rapidly approaching. Then they went to the bow of the vessel, where they found that she was anchored, though the chain had been hove short. The hawser by which she was to be towed to sea was made fast to the bowsprit bitts, and led to the stern of the steamer, where it was doubtless properly secured.
While they were looking over the bow, a boat approached from the Tallahatchie, and an officer hailed, asking for Captain Sullendine.
“He is in the cabin; I am the mate,” replied the engineer, “and the captain has shipped a new crew, we are all right now.”
“Weigh your anchor at three short whistles,” added the officer.
“Understood, and all right,” said the new mate.
The boat pulled back to the steamer.

Week Eight Cultural Blog
What was it like to pair with others to solve challenges? Was something particularly fun or rewarding? Was something frustrating and difficult for you?
At first, I didn't like it. That was because we were working on HTML and CSS and I feel confident, maybe too confident, in my abilities. It made it difficult to work with others since I didn't feel like it was benefiting me. Once I started on other types of challenges, like Ruby and Javascript, working with others was great. I have a decent understanding for the basics, but it is a learning experience working with others and helps broaden your way of thinking out the problem. Plus, I got to work with people who are intelligent with similar interests as me which is very enjoyable.
Feedback
How did you feel when you read your feedback?
Well, my first few reviews made me feel upset with myself. I tend to be controlling and will take over if I feel confident in the challenge. I a couple pieces of feedback where people basically stated that in a kind way. I have been working on it though, and the rest of my feedback has been very positive.
Was the feedback you received helpful to your learning?
Yes, it helps me know what I need to work on and what I am doing right. If the feedback is positive, it makes me feel good.
Based on the feedback you've received, what are you going to do to improve next time you pair?
Well, my feedback has been pretty positive, I have been working with others sharing roles of driving and navigating. I think all I need to do is continue to remember to work equally with others and not take over.
How was it to write feedback?
It was good, I hope I was specific enough. Mostly everyone I have worked with has been great so there is nothing negative to state.
What was most difficult for you when writing feedback for your pair?
The first feedback I had to write, I felt like the person didn't work well with me and didn't put any input, even when I asked for it. It was tough figuring out how to write how I felt without sounding harsh.
Overall, what do you think of using pairing and feedback to guide your learning?
I think its great. I enjoy pairing, it is a great learning experience. I need to work on writing feedback more detailed, but I have found the feedback I have received to be very helpful.

🎉Thanks to the organizers, coaches, and volunteers in countries all over the world, 2015 was an absolutely incredible year for Django Girls. 🎉
We released some awesome new organizer tools, hired our first staff member, became a charity, and merged hundreds of improvements to the Tutorial, Coaches Manual and the website! The Django Girls tutorial has now been translated into 12 languages, thanks to the hard work of our translation team and volunteer translators from all over.
In this report, we would like to highlight our achievements, present some statistics, and tell you all about the things that we - as a Django Girls community - made happen this year.
Sit back and enjoy!
In 2015, the Django Girls community organized 89 events - almost 6 times as much as year before. We've been to 77 cities across 36 countries and all 6 continents.
In 2015, 2785 women attended our events, and more than 8,600 applied. All of those events were organized by volunteers: an army of 221 organizers and 920 coaches supported by 393 sponsors.
In 2015, the Django Girls tutorial was translated to 12 languages thanks to thousands hours of work contributed by 358 translators. That's 29,4036 translated words. 169,107 people visited our Tutorial generating more than 2 million page views!
In 2015, we also resolved 180 issues and reviewed 378 pull requests submitted by 73 contributors across all of our repositories.
In 2015, we used many emojis on our Twitter. The most common one was ❤, which we used 118 times. The runner up, ✨, has been used by us in 77 tweets.
In 2015, we handwritten 84 thank you notes and mailed them to our Patreon supporters. We also acquired 356 gold letter balloons.
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Financial fundraising for Django Girls began in February 2015, when we started our Patreon campaign and budget tracking. In June 2015 we incorporated the non-profit Django Girls Foundation in England. While we're still working on the best way to present our finances, here is a first step: aggregated data about our expenses and income in 2015. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} In total, we spent $6,095.80 USD in 2015. The Awesomeness Ambassador position encompassed the majority (70%) of all of our costs. The Awesomeness Ambassador is responsible for running the daily operations of the organization: responding to organizer's requests, handling our mail, doing administrative tasks, updating the blog and newsletter, and maintaining the website and resources. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Another significant cost was sending some Django Girls team members to EuroPython, but that cost was entirely offset by a generous grant from Divio. Their sponsorship completely covered the cost of sending 3 of Django Girls team members to EuroPython in Spain. {% endblocktrans %}
| {% trans "Expense" %} | {% trans "Amount" %} | {% trans "% of expenses" %} |
| AWS | $ 10.27 | 0.17% |
| Typeform | $ 62.20 | 1.02% |
| Meldium | $ 180.00 | 2.95% |
| Shopify | $ 87.00 | 1.43% |
| Creative Market credits | $ 81.37 | 1.33% |
| Awesomness Ambassador | $ 4,270.00 | 70.05% |
| {% trans "Lawyer" %} | $ 81.19 | 1.33% |
| {% trans "Patreon Thank-yous" %} | $ 84.77 | 1.39% |
| {% trans "Paypal fees" %} | $ 51.73 | 0.85% |

| {% trans "EuroPython Grants sponsored by Divio" %} | $ 757.27 | 12.42% |
| {% trans "Total expenses" %} | $ 6,095.80 |
{% blocktrans trimmed %} We raised $37,157.5 USD in 2015. The most significant part of our incomes comes from one company: Elastic. Their generosity accounts for 60% of our overall budget for 2015: they donated $17,000 USD from the tickets sales for Elastic{ON} Tour event series, and sponsored our Awesomeness Ambassador position with an additional $5,645.19 USD. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} We also raised almost 19% of our total income through Patreon. We're currently receiving $899 USD a month from 48 people or organizations. {% endblocktrans %}
| {% trans "Income" %} | {% trans "Amount" %} | {% trans "% of income" %} |
| Patreon | $6,867.79 | 18.48% |
| {% trans "Income from t-shirts (Sales atPyCon booth + Cotton Bureau)" %} | $3,322.70 | 8.94% |
| {% trans "Elastic sponsorship of Awesomeness Ambassador" %} | $5,645.19 | 15.19% |
| Gratipay | $43.14 | 0.12% |
| {% trans "Elastic{ON} Tour donation" %} | $17,000.00 | 45.75% |

| {% trans "DjangoCon US Honza Král Tutorial donation" %} | $1,087.50 | 2.93% |
| {% trans "Total income" %} | $ 37,157.50 |
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Our total balance for end-of-year 2015 is $31,061.70 USD. We're incredibly thankful to all the generous people and organizations that donated this year and helped us secure a budget for even more activities in 2016. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans "In 2016, we're planning to focus on the following initiatives:" %}
{% trans "2015 was a pretty exciting year for us. Here is a rundown of what happened, season by season." %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} We don't have information on the number of people who became developers after Django Girls, and that information is difficult to gather. But it's an important metric. In this section, we're featuring interviews with some Django Girls attendees who've become professional developers since taking our workshop. We hope these anecdotes give you an idea of how powerful and life-changing attending a Django Girls workshop can be. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Agata Grdal is 23 and lives in Wrocław, Poland. She attended first ever Django Girls event at EuroPython, and started to work as Python Developer shortly after. She now also studies Computer Science and co-organizes local meetup for Python developers in her city. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Django Girls helped me gain more self-confidence and gave me a boost to keep learning. I've created my own blog and then prepared workshops and taught other women to code. Nothing is impossible with this bunch of crazy, positive people! {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Catherine is 25 years old and lives in France. After attending Django Girls event organized in Paris, she decided to switch career and is now studying computer programming fulltime. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} I was looking for a professional reconversion when I came across Django Girls, and it was my very first immersion into the programming world. It was wonderful! The learning pace was intense and thrilling, and the community, built around strong values, very welcoming. It encouraged me to keep looking into this field and I am now studying it full time! {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Maria Lowas-Rzechonek is 32 years old and lives in Kraków, Poland. Since December 2015 she can proudly add "Junior Django Developer" as her new job title. She also co-organized Django Girls Kraków 2014 and was a coach at Django Girls Kraków 2015. Last Spring with a group of people, she organized a two-month weekly workshops for beginners to practise resolving simple programming problems in Python. Most recently she also got involved in the organization of the Krakow Python User Group and DjangoCon Europe 2016. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} I wouldn't be where I am now if not Django Girls. I wouldn't have been so motivated to carry on learning programming if I hadn't participated in Django Girls at EuroPython 2014. I wouldn't have such a wonderful experience of Django/Python community, and probably I wouldn't get involved in local meetups because of that. I wouldn't have that great opportunity to practise and get my code public, if not Django Girls Winter of Code. Lastly, if not Django Girls, I wouldn't meet all those wonderful people, who actually get me in touch with people looking for junior developers. Learning how to program is a dangerous journey to go alone. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Päivi Suomela is 30 years old and lives in Sheffield, UK. After attending Django Girls London 2015, she got a job as a Junior Full-Stack Developer and now she works with Django, Python, C# and JavaScript on daily basis! In Autumn, she organized Django Girls Coventry at PyCon UK 2015 and she is about to run Django Girls Sheffield, which will take place in Feburary 2016. She’s also been involved with microbit worldtour project about writing Python for BBC Micro:Bit and enjoyed that a lot. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} I first heard of Django Girls when it was just starting out and I applied to the first workshop but wasn’t selected at the time. I applied again when the workshop was in London in March 2015 and this time I got in. I had been learning to program on my own, but the workshop gave me the push I needed to get more serious about it and actually try to get work as a developer. It was great to hear stories of other women who had become developers despite not having studied CS at university and having already spent time working in other careers. It made me realise that I could do it too! I’ve also met lots of nice people through Django Girls and heard about different opportunities that I might not have been aware of otherwise. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans "2015 was an incredibly busy year for Django Girls." %}

Filename$ - Name of the file containing the model to load.
Parent (optional) - Specify an entity to act as a Parent to the loaded mesh. |
|
LoadMesh, as the name suggests, Loads a mesh from an .X, .3DS or .B3D file (Usually created in advance by one of a number of 3D model creation packages) and returns the mesh handle.
Any hierarchy and animation information in the file will be ignored. Use LoadAnimMesh to maintain hierarchy and animation information. The optional parent parameter allows you to specify a parent entity for the mesh so that when the parent is moved the child mesh will move with it. However, this relationship is one way; applying movement commands to the child will not affect the parent. Specifying a parent entity will still result in the mesh being created at position 0,0,0 rather than at the parent entity's position. See also: LoadAnimMesh. |

Define a data abstraction for a class. Useful for passing collections of objects to a display layer where only 9 of 100 fields are needed, also if a message or user entry is 20 of 100 fields, one can create an entry-view which can be applied to a new or existing full class. Views are given an alias for use inside the <view> node. Views can have inheritance to mimic the inheritance structure of the full-classes which are handled by using the same alias. (see Examples) Found inside class nodes.
| Attribute | Description | Required |
| name | a fully-qualified Java class name (different from full-class) to wrap this abstraction. | Yes |
| format | an alias name like 'blotter' for later use |
<class name="org.Foo" > <class-view name="org.FooBlotterView" format="blotter"/> <field name="name" type="string"> <view in="blotter" /> </field> ... more fields with no view tag.. </class>to make a blotter view call
to apply a blotter vieworg.Foo foo = new Foo ();
foo.setName ("Bar");
org.FooBlotterView b = foo.createBlotterView ();
For inheritence use the same format name (in this case 'blotter')..org.FooBlotterView in = new FooBlotterView ();
in.setName ("Bob");
.... pass through some messaging/queueing
foo.initializeFromView (in);
<class name="org.Bar" extends="org.Foo"> <class-view name="org.BarBlotterView" format="blotter"/> <field name="favoriteTeam" type="string"> <view in="blotter" /> </field> ... more fields with no view tag.. </class>Now Class BarBlotterView will extend FooBlotterView and contain the extra field "favoriteTeam"

Original concept and design for Karuna. Karuna connects clients and therapists with an engaging platform. Track progress, activities, and messaging. Keep the therapeutic relationship strong in and outside the office. Final project for the CalArts UI/UX Design Specialization Certification course.
First Hand Experience: With over 10 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and working in a wide range of clinical environments, the same problems persists in every clinic; Client follow-through, oversight, and quantifying progress.
Problem: The therapeutic relationship is the highest determining factor in client outcomes yet the average therapeutic relationship accounts to less than 3% of time spent in a normal 40hr work week.
In addition, 70% of clients who follow through with Therapist recommended assigned homework report better outcomes, however difficult for therapists to measure.
Solution: A platform that connects therapists and clients outside the office. In addition, Therapists can assign engaging evidence-based content as homework for clients to complete. Assigned treatment homework is tracked creating transparency and increased outcome in treatment services.
Building personas of both the therapist and client helps identify general use of the platform for both the therapist and the client.
With more time, developing multiple personas within the therapist platform and the client platform would be beneficial.
Using basic screen outlays and color coding, The sitemap gives a brief picture of how the interaction works. Using this lo-fidelity keeps the focus on the big picture of the apps function.
Focused on keeping the UI basic, the development still focuses on the overall purpose of the app. Designing clean wireframes for the homescreens, message center, assignments and progress begins to unfold.
Building a map using the lo-fi wireframes focused on the apps function gives a brief model of how the user interacts.
Color Palette: Choosing colors that are calming, I followed analogous color rules to pick colors around the main blue color found on the header and footer of the app. Text and text background involved easy to read white and off black.
Typography: Using Raleway paired with Open Sans suggests an approachable app with readable text.
Using Sketch, Figma, and Adobe CC, I built out Hi-Fi Comps for testing. I have other eyes look at the work for clarity, functionality, and ease of use before moving to building the prototype.
Using a fluid prototyping method on Invision, the app focuses on feedback and suggestions. Creating iterations and changes focuses on the quality of the final product.

IDP Education opens new headquarters in Gurugram
by Staff ReporterThe Australian Minister for Education, Dan Tehan, has officially opened IDP Education’s new regional headquarters in Gurugram. IDP is an international education company of which Australian universities have 50% ownership. The Minister was joined by Harinder Sidhu, the Australian High Commissioner to India, and a delegation of Australian vice-chancellors and institution representatives. Gurugram-based educators, Australian alumni, students, IELTS test takers and IDP staff were also present.
As a one-stop location for international students and English language learners, the new headquarters offers course matching and application assistance, visa services, accommodation advice, health insurance support, computer-delivered IELTS and pre-departure briefings.
Piyush Kumar, IDP regional director, South Asia, said the new space further elevated the industry-leading services IDP provides to students and their families.


Aktiv.io is ending in September 2017.
It was honour for Us to try this segment of service, but we don't want to operate, when We doesn't have time and resources to develop Aktiv.io anymore.
In end of may 2017 we had 712 active registered users and 56 paying customers, but it was not enough to keep service sustainable and I'll (Matej) end this service approximately in June 2017.
If someone is interested to continue Aktiv.io, let me know, write to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>domain will expire in September 2017.
Paiying customers are being contacted how to export their data from Aktiv.io
Thanks to all your trust, it was great lesson for me and others involved
I've tried, I've failed.
New things are coming. See you.


| Arguments: | |
| zz | A pointer to the Zoltan_Struct used in the partitioning algorithm. |
| new_map | Upon return, a flag indicating whether remapping was actually done. Remapping is not done under a number of conditions (described with parameter REMAP) or when the computed remap gives a worse or equivalent result than the decomposition computed by the partitioning algorithm. |
| num_obj | Input: the number of objects the processor knows about after computing the decomposition. If the partitioning algorithm computes export lists, num_obj is the number of objects stored on the processor; if it computes import lists, num_obj is the number of objects that will be stored on the processor in the new decomposition. |
| procs | Upon input: an array of size num_obj containing processor assignments for the objects; if export_list_flag == 1, procs contains processor assignments in the NEW decomposition (computed by the partitioner); otherwise, procs contains processor assignments in the OLD decomposition (input by the application). Upon return, procs contains remapped processor assignments for the NEW decomposition, regardless of the value of export_list_flag. |
| old_parts | Upon input: an array of size num_obj containing part assignments for the objects in the OLD decomposition (input by the application). |
| new_parts | Upon input: an array of size num_obj containing part assignments for the objects in the NEW decomposition (computed by the partitioning algorithm). Upon return: new_parts contains remapped part assignments in the NEW decomposition. |
| export_list_flag | Flag indicating whether the partitioning algorithm computes export lists or import lists. The procedure for building the bipartite graph depends on whether the partitioning algorithm knows export or import information. |
| Returned Value: | |
| int | Error code. |


Glossary¶
Term (s) |
Description |
Notation |
|---|---|---|
Data object (point, observation, sample, example) |
A unit of analysis. Typically, a data object is represented as a vector of features. |
Typically denoted as lower case letter, often bold, e.g., \(\bf x\) or \({\bf x}_i\) or \({\bf x}^{(i)}\), where the subscript or superscript \(i\) denotes membership in a data set. |
Data set |
A collection of data objects. |
Typically denoted as upper case letter, often bold, e.g., \(\bf X\). |
Vector |
A list (or array) of real values (\(\in \{-\infty,\infty\}\)). |
Typically denoted as bold lower case letter, e.g., \(\bf x\). \(\bf x \in \mathbb{R}^d\), means that the vector represents a point in a \(d\)-dimensional vector space. An individual element of the vector is denoted as \(x_i\). |
Matrix |
A 2-way array of real values (\(\in \{-\infty,\infty\}\)). |
Typically denoted as bold upper case letter, e.g., \(\bf X\).
|
Transpose |
\({\bf X}^\top\), \({\bf x}^\top\) |
A transpose of a matrix is an operator which flips a matrix over its diagonal, i.e., \(X_{ij} = X^\top_{ji}\). Transpose of a vector is a \(1 \times d\) matrix. |
Matrix multiplication |
\({\bf X} = {\bf YZ}\) |
Only valid if the number of columns in \({\bf Y}\) is equal to the number of rows in \({\bf Z}\).
|
Vector dot (inner) product |
\({\bf x}.{\bf x} = \sum_{i=1}^d x_i^2\) |
In matrix notation, the dot product is expressed as \({\bf x}^\top{\bf x}\) |
Data Matrix |
A \(n \times d\) matrix, \({\bf X}\) |
If each data object in a data set can be represented as a vector in \(\mathbb{R}^d\), the data set of \(n\) such objects is typically arranged as a \(n \times d\) matrix, \({\bf X}\), where the transpose of each row of the matrix corresponds to a data object, i.e., \({\bf x}_i = X_{i*}^\top\). |
Random Variable |
A variable whose possible values are outcomes of a random phenomena (distribution) |
Typically denoted as an upper case letter, \(X\) (bold - \({\bf X}\), if multivariate) |
Probability |
A measure of the likelihood of an event to occur |
\(P(A)\) denotes the probability of an event \(A\) to occur.

Usage¶
Use the metric
shortcut to start recording metrics.
from redis_metrics import metric
# Increment the metric by one
metric('new-user-signup')
# Increment the metric by some other number
metric('new-user-signup', 4)
Metrics can also be categorized. To record a metric and add it to a category,
specify a category
keyword parameter
# Increment the metric, and add it to a category
metric('new-user-signup', category="User Metrics")
Metrics can also expire after a specified number of seconds
# The 'foo' metric will expire in 5 minutes
metric('foo', expire=300)
You can also reset a metric with the set_metric
function. This will
replace any existing values for the metric, rather than incrementing them. It’s
api is similar to metric
‘s.
from redis_metrics import set_metric
# Reset the Download count.
set_metric("downloads", 0)
Gauges¶
There are also gauge
‘s. A gauge
is great for storing a cumulative
value, and when you don’t care about keeping a history for the metric. In other
words, a gauge gives you a snapshot of some current value.
from redis_metrics import gauge
# Create a gauge
gauge('total-downloads', 0)
# Update the gauge
gauge('total-downloads', 9999)
The R class¶
There’s also an R
class which is a lightweight wrapper around redis
.
You can use it directly to set metrics or gauges and to retrieve data.
>>> from redis_metrics.models import R
>>> r = R()
>>> r.metric('new-user-signup')
>>> r.get_metric('new-user-signup')
{
'second': 0,
'minute': 0,
'hour': 1,
'day': '29',
'month': '29',
'week': '29',
'year': '29'
}
# list the slugs you've used to create metrics
>>> r.metric_slugs()
set(['new-user-signup', 'user-logins'])
# Get metrics for multiple slugs
>>> r.get_metrics(['new-user-signup', 'user-logins'])
[
{'new-user-signup': {
'second': '0', 'minute': '0', 'hour': '1',
'day': '7', 'month': '7', 'week': '7', 'year': '7'}},
{'user-logins':
'second': '0', 'minute': '0', 'hour': '1',
'day': '7', 'month': '7', 'week': '7', 'year': '7'}},
]
# Delete a metric
>>> r.delete_metric("app-errors")
Templatetags¶
Viewing your data is possible with the built-in views, but these all make use of a number of templatetags to display metric data and history.
metrics_since(slugs, years, link_type="detail", granularity=None)
Renders a template with a menu to view a metric (or a list of metrics) for a given number of years. For example:{% metrics_since "downloads" 5 %} {# downloads for the last 5 years #}
gauge(slug, maximum=9000, size=200)
: Includes a donut chart for the specified gauge. The maximum represents the largest possible value for the gague, while the size is the size of the chart in pixels.:{% gauge "tasks-completed" 10 %}
metric_list
generates a list of all metrics.metric_detail(slug, with_data_table=False)
displays a metric’s current details. This tag will also generate a table of raw data if thewith_data_table
option is True.metric_history(slug, granularity="daily", since=None, with_data_table=False)
displays a given metric’s history. Thegranularity
option defines the granularity displayed,since
is a string or datetime object that specifies how much data to show, andwith_data_table
controls wether or not raw data is displayed in a table. Examples:{% metric_history "signups" "daily" "2015-01-01" %} {% metric_history "signups" "monthly" this_year %}
aggregate_detail(slug_list, with_data_table=False)
is much likemetric_detail
, but displayes more than one metric on the chart. Theslug_list
parameter should be a list of metric slugs that you want to display.aggregate_history(slug_list, granularity="daily", since=None, with_data_table=False)
is similarly likemetric_history
, but for multiple metrics on once chart. but displayes more than one metric on the chart. Theslug_list
parameter should be a list of metric slugs that you want to display.


Note: This documentation is preliminary and subject to change.
This document describes how to write a software program to send data to WorldWide Telescope, using the Loosely Coupled API (LCAPI). For a large amount of data the program might be a tool that reads data from a spreadsheet file, and then sends the appropriate fields of the data to WorldWide Telescope in appropriately sized buffers for visualization. For a smaller amount of data the entire file could be loaded in one go, or images or 3D models could be loaded. Time series data would typically be time-and-location dependent event data such as:
The time-series system does not lend itself to data that varies either its location or has a complex intensity - such as weather systems, or forest fires - though it is possible a limited approach to this sort of data may be useful. The system does lend itself to events that occur over an extended period of time, given the ability to greatly accelerate simulated time, and also events that decay very rapidly (lightning) or quite slowly (diseases) given the ability to control the decay time of the rendered graphic.
There are a number of constraints on the use of the LCAPI that should be understood before commencing with the design of the tool:
For more information on WorldWide Telescope, refer to:
The Windows client version of WorldWide Telescope listens for a certain format of communication from another application running on the same computer. The format of this communication is in the form of strings, that themselves are formatted in a specific way. An application may be quite short and only need a load call, or perhaps just need the new and update commands. Typically a simple application will go through the following steps, after WorldWide Telescope has been started:
A more complex application may initialize several layers, or a layer group, within WorldWide Telescope, or may transmit the data under user control - enabling the user to have some choice over which data is rendered, the speed and time of the simulation, and other similar controls.
The samples and examples described in this document have been developed using Microsoft Visual Studio (2008 or 2010), and written in C#. In addition install the latest version of the .NET framework.
An alternative development environment is to write the code in Jscript using any text editor, and run it using Internet Explorer.
The following commands can be used to control layers from the application:
Command | Description |
| delete | Specifies that a layer should be permanently deleted. |
| group | Specifies that a layer group should be added. |
| load | Specifies a data file, and and some optional parameters, to apply to a new layer. |
| new | Specifies that a new layer should be created. |
| update | Specifies that the data attached to this command should be added to the layer. |
There are also a number of Independent Parameters that can be sent along with any of the commands listed above, or on their own.
The delete command specifies that a layer should be permanently deleted.
All sub-components of the layer will also be deleted.
Required Parameter | Description |
| &id | Specifies the id number of the layer. |
The following string will be included in the response if the call is successful:
<Status>Success</Status>
The following string will be included in the response if the call is not successful:
<Status>Error - Invalid layer ID</Status>
|
// // Send a DELETE command // WebClient client = new WebClient(); string url = string.Format("http://{0}:5050/layerApi.aspx?cmd=delete&id={1}", GetIp().ToString(), layerId); string response = client.UploadString(url, ""); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXml(response); XmlNode node = doc["LayerApi"]; string s = node.InnerText; // // Handle an error situation // if (s.Contains("Error")) { throw new Exception(s); } |
The group command specifies that a layer group should be added.
Layer groups are just an organizational aid when using the layer manager. The user will be able to collapse and expand groups in the Layer Manager, and have groups that are sub-sets of other groups.
Required Parameter | Description |
| &name | A unique name for the layer group. |
| &frame | The reference frame of the group. This
can be an existing layer group name, or one of: Earth, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Io, Ganymede, Callisto, Europa. Sun ? ISS ? |
The following string will be included in the response if the call is successful:
<Status>Success</Status>
The following string will be included in the response if the call is not successful:
<Status>Error - Invalid layer ID</Status>
|
private void createLayerGroup(string frame, string name) { try { WebClient client = new WebClient(); string url = string.Format("http://{0}:5050/layerApi.aspx?cmd=group&frame={1}&name={2}", GetIp().ToString(),frame,name); string response = client.UploadString(url, ""); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXml(response); XmlNode node = doc["LayerApi"]; string s = node.InnerText; // // Handle an error situation // if (s.Contains("Error")) { throw new Exception(s); } } catch (Exception ex) { } } |
The load command specifies a data file, and and some optional parameters, to apply to a new layer.
Depending on the type of data loaded, the load command will initiate an import wizard of WorldWide Telescope, in order to select the appropriate columns, positional data, and so on. Note that parameter names are case-sensitive.
Required Parameter | Description | |
| &frame | The reference frame of the group.
This can be an existing layer group name, or one of: Earth, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Io, Ganymede, Callisto, Europa. Sun ? ISS ? | |
| &filename | The file to load. This can be a spreadsheet data file, a 3D model (.3ds) file, or a WTML file containing an ImageSet reference. In the latter case the first image set found in the file will be loaded. Refer to the WorldWide Telescope Data Files Reference for more details. | |
Optional Parameter |
Default | |
| &name | A friendly name for the layer. | "New Layer" |
| &color | ARBG hex value of the color to be used when rendering the events of the layer. | FFFFFFFF (white) |
| &beginDate | With time series data, the date and time to start the visualization. This could for example be slightly earlier than the date of the first event in the actual data. For example: "1/1/2000 12:30:30 AM". | The System minimum date value |
| &endDate | With time series data, the date and time to end the visualization. | The System maximum date value |
| &fadeType | Fades the data visualization. One of: In, Out, Both or None. | None |
| &fadeRange | Fade time in days. | Zero |
The following string will be included in the response string:
<LayerApi><NewLayerID>nnnn</NewLayerID></LayerApi>
Where nnnn is the layer id number, which will be a GUID in string format.
The following string will be included in the response if the call is not successful:
<Status>Error - Could not Load Layer</Status>
|
private void loadDatafile(string name, string frame, string filename, string begindate) { try { WebClient client = new WebClient(); string url = string.Format("http://{0}:5050/layerApi.aspx?cmd=load&frame={1}&filename={2}&name={3}&beginDate={4}", GetIp().ToString(), frame, filename, name, begindate); string response = client.UploadString(url, ""); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXml(response); XmlNode node = doc["LayerApi"]; string s = node.InnerText; // // Handle an error situation // if (s.Contains("Error")) { throw new Exception(s); } } catch (Exception ex) { } } |
The new command specifies that a new layer should be created.
The new command will request that an entirely new layer be created, with the following parameters (note that the parameter names are case-sensitive):
Required
|
Description | |
| &frame | The reference frame of the
layer. This can be one of: Earth, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Io, Ganymede, Callisto, Europa. Sun ? ISS ? | |
Optional Parameters |

The new command is embedded in a formatted string (see the Example Code). This formatted string forms the first of two parameters to the WebClient UploadString method.
The second string parameter to UploadString should contain a comma or tab delimited string containing the heading names of the columns in the layer. The supported column names are listed in the following table. The names of the columns in the data file must contain the names listed here (so "Latitude" is acceptable for "Lat", or "dX" acceptable for "X", for example).
| Column Heading | Description |
| Time | UTC time, for example: "1/1/2000 12:02:46 AM" |
| Lat | Latitude in decimal degrees. |
| Lon | Longitude in decimal degrees. |
| RA | Right ascension in decimal degrees. |

// // Send a NEW command, extracting info from the data file and the UI // WebClient client = new WebClient(); string startDate = "1/1/2009 12:00:00 AM"; string name = "Earthquakes 2009"; string rate = "10000"; string frame = "Earth"; string color = "FFFF0000"; string url = string.Format("http://{0}:5050/layerApi.aspx?cmd=new&datetime={1}&timerate={2}&name={3}&frame={4}&color={5}", GetIp().ToString(), startDate, rate, name, frame, color); // field string below is delimited by tabs, not spaces string response = client.UploadString(url, "TIME LAT LON DEPTH MAG"); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXml(response); XmlNode node = doc["LayerApi"]; XmlNode child = node.ChildNodes[0]; layerId = child.InnerText; // // Handle an error situation // if (layerId.Length != 36) throw new Exception("Invalid Layer Id received"); // |
For an example of the use of this command in the sample application, see initWWTLayer.
The update command specifies that the data attached to this command should be added to the layer.
The update command will request that data for a layer be updated, with the following parameters (note that the parameter names are case-sensitive):
Required Parameter | Description |
|
| &id | Specifies the id number of the layer. | |
Optional Parameters |
Description |
Default |
| &name | A friendly name to rename the layer. | No change |

| &show | Set to true to show the layer, false to hide it. True and false are not case-sensitive. | True |
The second string parameter to UploadString should contain a comma or tab delimited string containing the data in a form that matches the heading names of the columns in the layer provided in the new command.
The following string will be included in the response if the call is successful:
<Status>Success</Status>
The following string will be included in the response if the call is not successful:
<Status>Error - Invalid layer ID</Status>
|
// // Send an UPDATE command // WebClient client = new WebClient(); string url = string.Format("http://{0}:5050/layerApi.aspx?cmd=update&id={1}", GetIp().ToString(), layerId); string response = client.UploadString(url, lineBuffer); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXml(response); XmlNode node = doc["LayerApi"]; string s = node.InnerText; // // Handle an error situation // if (s.Contains("Error")) { throw new Exception(s); } // // Send an UPDATE command with a flyTo parameter // string lat, lon, zoom, rotation, angle; WebClient client = new WebClient(); string url = string.Format("http://{0}:5050/layerApi.aspx?cmd=update&id={1}&flyTo={2},{3},{4},{5},{6}&instant=True", GetIp().ToString(), layerId, lat, lon, zoom, rotation, angle); string response = client.UploadString(url, lineBuffer); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXml(response); XmlNode node = doc["LayerApi"]; string s = node.InnerText; // // Handle an error situation // if (s.Contains("Error")) { throw new Exception(s); } |
For an example of the use of this command in the sample application, see flushBufferToWWT.
The following parameters can be included with any of the Layer API commands,
or sent on their own without a command.
Parameter |
Description |
| &datetime | The starting date and time for the visualization, in UTC format, for example: "1/1/2000 12:02:46 AM". |
| &timerate | The accelerated time to render the visualization, as a multiple of 10. |
| &flyTo | Sets the position of the view
camera. Requires five floating point numbers separated by commas: latitude,
longitude, zoom level, rotation and angle.
|
| &instant | Used with the &flyTo parameter, set this to true to specify that the camera should jump to the location, or false that the camera should smoothly pan and zoom to the location. |
The following utilities are not part of the API, but should be useful in building an application.
The IP address of your application is critical in the communication with WorldWide Telescope. The following utility will extract this address.
|
IPAddress GetIp() { IPAddress ipAddress = IPAddress.Loopback; // Find IPV4 Address foreach (IPAddress ipAdd in Dns.GetHostEntry(Dns.GetHostName()).AddressList) { if (ipAdd.AddressFamily == AddressFamily.InterNetwork) { ipAddress = ipAdd; break; } } return ipAddress; } |
The following sample application loads earthquake data from a CSV file, sends it in buffers of up to 100 events, and displays it as a time series in WorldWide Telescope.

A Responsive Accordion Plugin for WordPress from Nicola Hibbert
Thank you for purchasing Accordion Pro WP!
To install the plugin you will need to upload the folder called accordionpro_wp to your WordPress plugins directory. You can accomplish this in one of two ways: you can either use an FTP client to upload the unzipped folder, or you can use the upload function contained within your WordPress admin panel.
Upload via FTP:Use your ftp client to upload the accordion_pro folder to /wp-content/plugins/ folder on your server.
Upload with WordPress:In your WordPress admin panel, browse to Plugins > Add New > Upload. Click Choose File, select the zipped plugin, and click Install Now.
Once the accordionpro_wp folder has been uploaded, you can activate the plugin.  You should see a new plugin listed, Accordion Pro. Click Activate to activate the plugin.
Once the plugin has been activated, a new menu panel called Accordion Pro will appear underneath ‘Settings’. There are three menu options: ‘Manage Accordions’, ‘Create Accordions’ and ‘Settings’.
Click the submenu entry called ‘Create Accordions’. This will take you to the accordion creation and editing page. The first slide of your new accordion is automatically created for you.
Begin by entering a title for your first slide – this will be displayed on the horizontally on the ‘spine’ of your slide. Titles are optional.
Next, enter a caption for your slide. This will be displayed when the slide is activated, and hidden when the slide closes. Captions are also optional, and can be toggled on and off.
Content can be entered using the Visual or HTML content editors. Any valid HTML content (e.g. images, video, Canvas, etc.) can be displayed in a slide. If you prefer to use the Visual Editor to edit your slides, and would like to have WordPress automatically format your text (i.e. by adding paragraph tags), enable the Auto Formatting option in the Accordion Pro > Settings panel. If you prefer to hand-code your HTML, you should leave this setting disabled.
If you plan to use Flash videos in your slides, remember to set the wmode parameter to transparent. This will fix the z-index issue and stop the video overlapping the other slides.
To add a new slide, click the ‘Add Another Slide’ button located at the bottom of the editing page. To remove a slide, click the ‘Remove Slide’ button located underneath the slide’s content editor.
Save your accordion by entering a name for it (in the box at the top-right of the screen) and hitting 'Save Accordion'.
The plugin has a multitude of options, so you can tailor the aesthetics and functionality to suit your needs.

The list of options can look at a little daunting at first - that's why we've made an interactive demo suite to show you the capabilities of the plugin. You can find the demo suite here.
There are also a number of examples to demonstrate a few of the different setups you could use.
After saving your accordion, you’ll see a notification that the accordion has been saved successfully, accompanied by a link to the management screen. Click the link in the notification, or click the link called ‘Manage Accordions’ in the Accordion Pro submenu to visit the management screen.
The management screen contains the shortcode required to insert your newly created accordion into your WordPress post or page. Select the shortcode relating to your accordion, and copy it. Then visit the page you want to insert it into, and paste the shortcode in. Save your post and browse to it to see your new accordion.
To edit, clone or delete an accordion, click the corresponding icon on the management screen.
Not all of the CSS3 properties used to create Accordion Pro are supported in all browsers. The appearance of accordions will be consistent in modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari), but where older versions of Internet Explorer are lacking the requisite CSS3 support, styles will degrade gracefully.
This plugin wouldn't be possible if it weren't for the open-source efforts of others. Many thanks to:
Thanks a bunch guys!
