This documentation explains how to use the ZLib Newton port Library prototypes. As I'm writing this, the ZLib Newton port isn't complete.
The ZLib Newton port is a partial port for NewtonOS of ZLib 1.1.3 by Jean-loup Gailly & Mark Adler. The reason why it's partial is just that I'm lacking time to finish porting it (i.e. to write NewtonScript wrappers and the documentation). If you need functions that haven't been ported, contact me.
This documentation supposes that you're used to ZLib APIs. I won't describe them here, I'll just describe the wrappers. You can find the documentation for the ZLib APIs here.
The ZLib can only be interfaced from NewtonScript for the moment.
The NewtonScript interface is based on units. For an introduction on units, cf the Kallisys Newton Libraries general documentation.
The Units define a function and two prototypes.
GetZLibVersion
call UR( kZLibSymbol, 'GetZLibVersion ) with ()
Returns the version of the ZLib as string.
| return value | The version of the ZLib library as a NewtonScript (unicode) string. |
ProtoDeflateStream is a prototype to deflate (compress) a stream of data. You use it with the _proto chain of NewtonOS, i.e.:
local frame myDeflateStream := {
_proto: UR( kZLibSymbol, 'ProtoDeflateStream )
};
The deflate stream frame has two slots, zstream
and zstreamf
. zstream
is an integer. It's
a pointer to the stream structure for this prototype. Do not use it, just let the methods set/use/remove it. zstreamf
slot is a frame with the NewtonScript representation of some elements of the zstream structure. It has the following slots:
| bin_in | The binary object to parse data from. This binary can be of any class. |
| next_in | The index (in bytes, zero based) to the data in the binary object. This is an integer, and added to the pointer of the binary object, it is the next_in field of the zstream structure. |
| avail_in | The number of bytes available in the binary object for input. Beware, there is no check that added to next_in, this is smaller than the size of the binary. This value is directly converted to/from the zstream avail_in field. |
| total_in | The number of input bytes processed. This field is read from the zstream total_in field. |
| bin_out | The binary object to store output to. This binary can be of any class. |
| next_out | The index (in bytes, zero based) to the data in the binary object. This is an integer, and added to the pointer of the binary object, it is the next_out field of the zstream structure. |
| avail_out | The number of bytes available in the binary object for output. Beware, there is no check that added to next_out, this is smaller than the size of the binary. This value is directly converted to/from the zstream avail_out field. |
| total_out | The number of output bytes generated. This field is read from the zstream total_out field. |
| msg | The NewtonScript (Unicode) string representation of the zstream msg field. May be NIL or absent if there is no message (cf the discussion of methods below). |
You can access slots of the object as you normally do in NewtonScript and send messages with the
myDeflateStream:Message( parameters ... )
syntax.
The messages are the following:
DeflateInit
deflateStream:DeflateInit(level)
Initialize the deflate stream.
| level | The level of compression to use. This can be NIL, a symbol or an integer (between -1 and 9). Allowed symbols are:
If it's NIL, 'default is assumed. If the input value is an integer, it's passed directly without any check to deflateInit function |
||||||||
| return value | NIL if deflateInit returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
||||||||
| Discussion | If something went wrong in the NS wrapper, an exception is thrown. If deflateInit didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). If the 'zstreamf slot is present, then it's read and values there are set to the zstream structure before being passed to deflateInit. This means that deflateInit may do some initialization process. Otherwise, the zstreamf slot is created. Also, the 'zstream slot will be set to the pointer to the zstream structure and the zstreamf frame will be filled with the output of deflateInit method. |
DeflateInit2
deflateStream:DeflateInit2(level, method, windowBits, memLevel, strategy)
Initialize the deflate stream with advanced options.
| level | The level of compression to use. This is exactly like level parameter of DeflateInit method. |
| method | The method of compression to use. This must be either 8 (Z_DEFLATE_METHOD constant) or NIL (in which case 8 is assumed). |
| windowBits | This must be an integer or NIL. If this is NIL, 15 is assumed (just as with deflateInit function). The value (normally between 8 and 15) is passed directly to the deflateInit2 function. This means that you can pass a negative value (e.g. -15) to use the ZLib undocumented feature and bypass the ZLib header. |
| memLevel | This must be an integer or NIL. If this is NIL, 8 is assumed (just as with deflateInit function). The value (normally between 1 and 9) is passed directly to the deflateInit2 function. Note: Steve's tests showed that you can run out of memory with 8 on an MP2000. Lower memory level means worst compression, but unlike modifications of the windowWidth, it doesn't affect the compatibility. |
| strategy | The strategy of compression to use. This can be NIL, a symbol or an integer. Allowed symbols are:
If it's NIL, 'default is assumed. If the input value is an integer, it's passed directly without any check to the deflateInit2 function |
| return value | NIL if deflateInit2 returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | The discussion about deflateInit applies for deflateInit2 as well. |
Deflate
deflateStream:Deflate(flush)
Compress some bytes.
| flush | Which flush behavior to have. This can be NIL, a symbol or an integer. Allowed symbols are:
If it's NIL, 'no is assumed. If the input value is an integer, it's passed directly without any check to the deflate function |
| return value | NIL if deflate returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | The role of the flush parameter is explained in the ZLib documentation. The role of the zstreamf frame slots is exactly the same as the role of the zstream structure as mentioned in the ZLib documentation. If an error occured in the NS wrapper, an execption is thrown. If deflate didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). Note: this is the only method of this prototype which can return an integer (here 1) with normal operations. Please read the ZLib documentation. |
DeflateEnd
deflateStream:DeflateEnd()
Disposes the deflate stream.
| return value | NIL if deflate returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | deflateEnd function is called. Additionally, the zstream structure is disposed and the 'zstream slot is removed. The zstreamf slot isn't removed, just because you might want to keep it. It will go away with the DeflateStream object at next garbage collection, but you can remove it as well to save some NS Heap bytes. If an error occured in the NS wrapper, an execption is thrown. If deflateEnd didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). |
DeflateReset
deflateStream:DeflateReset()
Resets the deflate stream.
| return value | NIL if deflate returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | deflateReset function is called. This is equivalent to deflateEnd followed by deflateInit. If an error occured in the NS wrapper, an execption is thrown. If deflateReset didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). |
ProtoInflateStream is a prototype to inflate (decompress) a stream of data. You use it with the _proto chain of NewtonOS, i.e.:
local frame myInflateStream := {
_proto: UR( kZLibSymbol, 'ProtoInflateStream )
};
The inflate stream frame has two slots, zstream
and zstreamf
just like
the deflate stream frame.
You can access slots of the object as you normally do in NewtonScript and send messages with the
myInflateStream:Message( parameters ... )
syntax.
The messages are the following:
InflateInit
inflateStream:InflateInit()
Initialize the inflate stream.
| return value | NIL if inflateInit returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | If something went wrong in the NS wrapper, an exception is thrown. If inflateInit didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). If the 'zstreamf slot is present, then it's read and values there are set to the zstream structure before being passed to inflateInit. This means that inflateInit may do some initialization process. Otherwise, the zstreamf slot is created. Also, the 'zstream slot will be set to the pointer to the zstream structure and the zstreamf frame will be filled with the output of inflateInit method. |
InflateInit2
inflateStream:InflateInit2(windowBits)
Initialize the inflate stream with advanced options.
| windowBits | This must be an integer or NIL. If this is NIL, 15 is assumed (just as with inflateInit function). The value (normally between 8 and 15) is passed directly to the inflateInit2 function. This means that you can pass a negative value (e.g. -15) to use the ZLib undocumented feature and bypass the ZLib header. |
| return value | NIL if inflateInit2 returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | The discussion about inflateInit applies for inflateInit2 as well. |
Inflate
inflateStream:Inflate(flush)
Compress some bytes.
| flush | Which flush behavior to have. This can be NIL, a symbol or an integer. Allowed symbols are:
If it's NIL, 'no is assumed. If the input value is an integer, it's passed directly without any check to the inflate function |
| return value | NIL if inflate returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | The role of the flush parameter is explained in the ZLib documentation. The role of the zstreamf frame slots is exactly the same as the role of the zstream structure as mentioned in the ZLib documentation. If an error occured in the NS wrapper, an execption is thrown. If inflate didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). Note: this is the only method of this prototype which can return an integer (here 1) with normal operations. Please read the ZLib documentation. |
InflateEnd
inflateStream:InflateEnd()
Disposes the inflate stream.
| return value | NIL if inflate returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | inflateEnd function is called. Additionally, the zstream structure is disposed and the 'zstream slot is removed. The zstreamf slot isn't removed, just because you might want to keep it. It will go away with the InflateStream object at next garbage collection, but you can remove it as well to save some NS Heap bytes. If an error occured in the NS wrapper, an execption is thrown. If inflateEnd didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). |
InflateReset
inflateStream:InflateReset()
Resets the inflate stream.
| return value | NIL if inflate returned Z_OK, an integer otherwise. |
| Discussion | inflateReset function is called. This is equivalent to inflateEnd followed by inflateInit. If an error occured in the NS wrapper, an execption is thrown. If inflateReset didn't return Z_OK and if zstream->msg isn't nil, then zstreamf.msg is set to this message (as a NewtonScript string). |

A PxBaseTask implementation with immediate execution and simple dependencies.
A PxLightCpuTask bypasses the PxTaskManager launch dependencies and will be submitted directly to your scene's CpuDispatcher. When the run() function completes, it will decrement the reference count of the specified continuation task.
You must use a full-blown PxTask if you want your task to be resolved by another PxTask, or you need more than a single dependency to be resolved when your task completes, or your task will not run on the CpuDispatcher.

FILM TITLE: RED FIRECRACKER, GREEN FIRECRACKER DIRECTOR: HE PING COUNTRY: CHINA 1994 CINEMATOGRAPHY: YANG LUN MUSIC: ZHAO JIPING CAST: Ning Jing, Wu Gang, Zhao Yiaorui SUPER FEATURES: The story.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chinese films just don't let up.
RED FIRECRACKER, GREEN FIRECRACKER, is another film in the long list of material that is dead serious bent on turning over a leaf in Chinese history, where women are not important for anything except child bearing and cooking.
And a good thing, too. Because with strength like this, it will be a matter of days before the whole thing crumbles and another large country falls apart at the seems of its own viciousness. Traditions have had a lot to do with this stuff, and they seem to be hard to let go, specially when carried out by the men.
This is the story of a firecracker factory that has become one of China's best known and biggest. It's leader has died, and the person to take it over happens to be his daughter, who is immediately forbidden to marry to ensure that the fortune stays in the family. And the woman is watched every minute to make sure that she does not go beyond what she is told that she can, or can not do.
The rich family has everything that money can buy and work with. And it is now looking for another painter to do its decorations in their castle. But unlike the previous one, he is a young man, in his prime, and he takes an interest on the princess, and she takes an interest in him. But their love/hate relationship is a problem, not only to her but to him. Everyone around her, tries to make sure that she doesn't do anything with the painter. And the painter, tries everything he can to make sure that something does happen. And eventually, it does, and she spends time with him. But this pretty much creates havoc in her world. The elders are terribly upset, and the man that has been charged with making sure that no one can reach her, is all of a sudden being charged with not doing his job.
Eventually, a solution is found. And that is that they will allow her to marry a man that will agree to come into the family. And a contest is set up so that the suitors can vie for the prize. And her suitor is there, as well as the man in charge of making sure that she does not meet anyone else. After all these years, he is finally getting a chance at getting to the lady he really loves, but can never say so.
The context comes to an end, and the film ends in a rather interesting way, the woman is pregnant with the wrong man's child, and she did not marry.
And the film displays the cruelty that it has passed on down the ages to many of its own people, a tradition that eventually is going to fall apart, regardless of any resistance. And films of this kind, while getting out of the rather harsh and critical eye of the Chinese system, get away with it, as long as they keep it so historical that no one notices that this is still going on today, by the very hands that are sharply cutting these films.
But the lyrical way this is done, is something else. This film, just like many of Zhang Yimou's material and others, is just so well designed and written that it is hard to fault it. It is terribly difficult to sit through sometimes, like TO LIVE, but, they are very satisfying in a way. You know that the individual human spirit may be broken, but it will survive, and its strength will one day shine, in another day and time.... and I, for one, sure hope so.
And not only for the sake of such beautifully directed works as this.

Hi and Welcome! I am a 16 year-old full-stack web developer and a passionate programmer. I am also a high school student at Sanskriti School, New Delhi and a core member of ProjectBeta, The Tech Club of my school. Along with my club members, I have participated in various interschool events including cryptic hunts and hackathons across Delhi. When I find time, I contribute to the open-source world, try to hone my web development skills and increase my knowledge for the ever growing domain of Computer Science. I can also be described as a footballer and a guy who is always interested in the "tech-thingy."
¯\_(ツ)_/¯


The Event
Information on the event will be posted as it is available. Stay tuned!
The finer details of the event are still being ironed out. We will update this page with a copy of all the relevant information when it is determined.
In the meantime, you can view the Save the Date and a few images that we have taken of the venue when we've toured it below, or you could visit the venue website here.

DZS Ajaxer WordPress Plugin
Author: Digital Zoom Studio
Twitter: http://twitter.com/
Facebook: http://facebook.com/dzs
Support - via item comments
Installation
First thing you have to do is go to your WP Dashboard admin, click Plugin > Add New, then the Upload Plugin button.
This process is different from host provider to host provider so if you are confused by this, you can contact that hosting provider to ask for assistence.
Here is a quick video tutorial:
Setup
Setup is done in the admin page accessible from the WP Dashboard. Ajaxer Page.
If the button saying Install Default Settings for {{your_theme}}, is there , then you should click that. Those are our recommeded settings. You can change transition and preloader after.
If there is no such button, it means that your theme is not in our predefined books and require some manual adjustment. Generally, it means to primarely just set the content container and the menu selector, which we will show you how to do by explaining each setting.
Enable Ajax?
Setting this to off will disable the plugin functionality, so it's mandatory that it's left to ON. Use OFF only for testing purposes.
Content Selector
This is the content selector. If you have basic html knowledge, it's easy to find out. If not, it's no problem, we'll explain below how to setup.
First we need to go to our frontend and right click on a element from the content and click Inspect.
Next, the DOM tree will appear. We need to go as high as possible and look for an element that covers the content area ( in the blue area ) .
This is the element we selected in the tree. We need to go higher.
This element looks like a good match. It covers the whole content area. In this case, we can either select it by id and input in the Content Selector field - #content . Or select it by class and input in the Content Selector field - .site-content. It will be the same outcome in this case, but in other cases only the id or only the class might be present. Generally, id is prefered.
If we go a little higher in the tree we will see that the parent element contains all of the site which is not what we want, we want only the content to load:
This should be all the setup for the Content Selector field.
Menu Selector
This is the menu selector. We follow the same steps to find it out. We inspect a item in the menu and find the highest menu parent. In this case, the twentyfifteen theme it's #site-navigation that should be entered in this field.
Move Menu on Top of Content
If there is no way to select the container without the menu, you can use this option to place the menu on top of the content. It can work in some themes.
Transition
Choose from No Transition, Fade, Scale Down or Slide.
No Transition and Fade are direct transitions. These provide maximum compatibility.
Scale Down and Slide are more complex transitions and might not work in all themes and with all plugins.
We cannot guarentee compatibility with all 3rd party plugins. As long as the 3d party plugin is properly coded, it should work with this plugin, but otherwise it might not.
A properly coded plugin should load all their scrips via wp_enqueue functions. And it should apply functionality via a inline scripts like this format targeting a unique class :
Preloader
Choose from No Preloader, Bar or Fullscreen Bars.
Extra Items to be Replaced
These selectors will be searched in the new ajax loaded content and replaced in the current page accordingly, in the same order.
Extra Items to be Added
This is similar to the .. to be Replaced setting, but the difference is that each selector will be queried in the page. If it does not exist, then the element found in the ajax content will be added to the current page. If it is found, then the contents will be replaced.
This is useful for example for a footer player outside the content, like seen in the demo.
Scripts Execute after Ajax Call ?
Select this if javascript scripts in the page should execute after the ajax call is completed. This might increase 3rd party plugins compatibility.
Scripts to Reload
these scripts will be discarded and loaded again when the new page loads
If some scripts have some special initialization inside them you can choose to have them discarded and loaded again on page load. Demo input:
scripts.min.js,owl.slider.js
These will unload and reload on page load any scripts that contain scripts.min.js or slider.js
Script Call on Page Load
javascript call on page change . - warning
Only to be modified if you know what you are doing. - might break the change. - javascript call on each page load. Example input:
jQuery('.carousel-wrap .carousel-items,.blog-masonry .masonry-items .blog-item').css('opacity',1);
This will unhide the elements specified in the jQuery selector.
How to Ajaxify Search Form
Ajaxer tries to ajaxify the search form by default. First try to search something, and if the search is not done ajaxified, then proceed to this simple setup.
Right click the search field, click Inspect
Then you will need to search for the form element that contains it. In this case it's .searchform . After you found it, you can just to Ajaxer Settings and input it in the Search Form Selector field.
How to Ajaxify Comments
Ajaxer tries to ajaxify the comments form by default. First try to comment something, and if the comment is not done ajaxified, then proceed to this simple setup.
Right click the search field, click Inspect
Then you will need to search for the form element that contains it. In this case it's .comment-form . After you found it, you can just to Ajaxer Settings and input it in the Comment Form Selector field.
Developer Tips
Note: this is for advanced users only. Changes to any topic covered here can break the portal.
Recommended Programs
You can generally use any text editing software [ like notepad ] to edit content/code but this is what I recommend:
- .js, .php, .scss - phpStorm
SASS
If you are a developer you will notice there are some .scss files included too. This is the language for a css preprocessor which makes a developer's life easier. This is optional but if you want to try it here is the site.

The arguments object is a local variable available within all non-arrow functions. You can refer to a function's arguments inside that function by using its arguments object. It has entries for each argument the function was called with, with the first entry's index at 0.
The arguments object is not an Array. It is similar, but lacks all Array properties except length. For example, it does not have the pop() method.
NOTE: Function arguments are the real values passed to (and received by) the function.
The parameters, in a function call, are the function's arguments.
JavaScript arguments are passed by value: The function only gets to know the values, not the argument's locations.
If a function changes an argument's value, it does not change the parameter's original value.
Changes to arguments are not visible (reflected) outside the function.

At the October meeting, members approved the purchase
of 10 cases of bottled water to be donated to the Pueblo West Fire
Department. David, KY6YYY, and Jane, KA0USA, delivered the water,
which was much appreciated by the firemen.
-
The Christmas party and potluck dinner on December 8
will start about 3 p.m. following the meeting. Carrie, KD0SOV, passed
around a sign up sheet for items being brought to the potluck.
Members of the Pueblo Ham Club and Royal Gorge Ham Club members will
be invited.
-
Net Manager Steve Worley, KD0QCF, reported that the
Thursday night net on 147.000 has been averaging 14 people. The
Tuesday night nets have been having about 9-10 check-ins on both
the145.490 and simplex nets. Club members east of Pueblo have been
able to participate in the Thursday night net, whereas they have had
problems getting into the Tuesday night net. He noted that this is
not an attempt to get rid of the net on Tuesday. The frequency used
on Thursdays could serve as a back-up net or resource net if needed.
In a big emergency, we would use anything available. Discussion on
the future of the Thursday night net was tabled until the December meeting.

State of Open Con 2023
I was invited to this conference a week ago and I enjoyed it so much!
Day 1
To be honest, I was a bit tired just coming back from FOSDEM so it was a struggle to wake up early to commute with other Londoners to the conference. I am glad that I did do to the conference.
First, we have an opening by Amanda Brock, the CEO of Open UK. I talked to her later at the conference and she is really sweet.

Next, the first keynote is the by Chi Onwurah - the Labour MP of New Castle upon Tyne. I am glad to see the tech community connected with decision-makers and I think we need the conversation.
Next in #SOOCon23 we have Damani Corbin from @Boeing speaking about their use of OSS pic.twitter.com/fhxoVBGkrr

Next, we have Damani Corbin who’s in charge of Strategy & EcoSystem Growth at Boeing speaking about open-source within their company.
Good time at #SOOCon23 @openuk_uk 😊 pic.twitter.com/MUiD3LSeft
— Cheuk Ting Ho (@cheukting_ho) February 7, 2023
After these amazing talks, I decided to take a break and walk around and check out the booths. I had a good chat with some amazing people. Including Deb, the executive director of FreeBSD and Nick who was the director of development at Open Source Initiative. I also got loads of swags.
Let’s try the unconference at #SOOCon23 @openuk_uk pic.twitter.com/K5SIph2sDp
— Cheuk Ting Ho (@cheukting_ho) February 7, 2023
In the afternoon I attended an unconference session, which is very interesting and there was a lot of discussion about open hardware securities.
Unfortunately, I have to leave early after one drink at the all-hands party. I planned to attend the PyData London meeting that night.
Day 2
Another morning commute across London for me, and I am not a fan of it. However, I feel much better after a coffee at the conference.
Community building round table at #SOOCon23 pic.twitter.com/2KmcBzUtvN
— Cheuk Ting Ho (@cheukting_ho) February 8, 2023
In the morning, I decide to go for a roundtable session about community building. The discussion is interesting and I have learnt a few things. After that, I also have a very nice conversation with the host of the session and a teacher names Adam. We exchanged contact as he said he would like to invite me to speak at the school, we will see how it goes.
At lunch, I hang out with Sammy, my friend and organiser of PyCon HK. We don’t have much time to hang out while he is in London, so we may as well have a chat during the conference. After lunch, I went for another unconference and met a bunch of cool people how we later went to karaoke with.
Got to meet @cheukting_ho in person who is rockin Python and data science community work at @anacondainc #stateofopencon23 pic.twitter.com/yc4mwp3LzZ
— Bart Farrell (@birthmarkbart) February 8, 2023
I left the conference early to head home for more meetings. However, I went back for the unofficial karaoke party, who doesn’t love karaoke? I think the conference ended on a high note here.
State of Karaoke has started! #SOOCon23 pic.twitter.com/oco1u0e8jk
— Cheuk Ting Ho (@cheukting_ho) February 8, 2023
And there it is! I am glad to join the conference and I now I will keep an eye on all the Open UK events as I like what they are doing and the community is very nice.


OCTOBER 2 The Holy Guardian Angels
This celebration
was placed in the Roman calendar in 1615. Scripture is full of stories of
angels coming to help patriarchs. Each person has his own Guardian Angel.
Angels are God's messengers whose mission is to take care of us, to protect our
way on earth, and to share with Christians the apostolic zeal to get souls
closer to God. St. Peter was liberated from jail by an angel. Our Lord spoke of
angels of children who constantly behold his Heavenly Father's face. Our Guardian
Angels are our friends.
ENTRANCE ANTIPHON
Angels of the Lord, bless the Lord, praise and exalt him above all for ever.
The GLORIA can be
said. (English, Latin)
COLLECT
O God, who in your unfathomable providence are pleased to send your holy Angels to guard us, hear our supplication as we cry to you, that we may always be defended by their protection and rejoice eternally in their company. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
PRAYER OVER THE OFFERINGS
Receive, O Lord, the offerings we bring before you as we venerate your holy Angels, and graciously grant that under their constant protection we may be delivered from present dangers and brought happily to life eternal. Through Christ our Lord.
COMMUNION ANTIPHON
In the presence of the Angels I will praise you, my God.
PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION
As you are
pleased to nourish us for eternal life with so great a Sacrament, O Lord,
direct us by the ministry of Angels into the way of salvation and peace.
Through Christ our Lord.

Yes, now through March 3, where you can vote not just for President but also DCCC members (Democratic endorsers), judges, and local propositions.
It's ✨easy and free✨ for U.S. citizens to register to vote at https://registertovote.ca.gov/. It only takes 5 minutes, so do it right now.
At the state and local level, your vote isn't wasted!
You'll be able to vote for either district 17 or 19, depending on where you live in San Francisco.
this space intentionally left blank.
The DCCC is the group that determines who the "San Francisco Democratic Party" endorses. As you can imagine, the Democratic Party has a fair bit of clout in SF, so having their official endorsement makes a substantial difference in how people vote.
By registering Democratic and voting for DCCC candidates that share your pro-housing, progressive values, you are influencing politics in SF positively.
I outsourced my endorsements here to YIMBY Action (Yes in my backyard), San Francisco's main pro-housing group. Here are their full endorsements.
Another helpful resource (for who not to vote for) was the SF League of Pissed Off Voters.  The League wants candidates to oppose SB 50, our state's best hope for building more homes quickly. They also wanted candidates to oppose any market-rate housing on public land, even if that land could subsidize additional affordable units to be built too. I tabulated everyone's responses to these questions, and most of the non-YIMBY-endorsed candidates agree to positions which would result in fewer homes to be built.
(Curiously for a group that purports to be pissed off, their questionnaire also asks prospective DCCC members to promise to endorse the incumbents in 4 of the 6 upcoming supervisor races. A DCCC member should endorse whomever they feel is the best candidate depending on their values, issue positions, and political considerations; binding them to endorsing incumbents greatly reduces the power of the DCCC.)
I support Nancy Pelosi for reelection. She is the current Speaker of the House of Representatives. Though I do wish we had a younger generation of leadership in Congress, she's been effective in running the House, getting bills passed, and managing impeachment in a popular way.
Her most prominent opponent, Shahid Buttar, is a democratic socialist in the Bernie vein. An interesting endorsement for him is by Cory Doctorow. As you can imagine, almost everyone has endorsed Pelosi.
Scott Wiener is the best legislator I've ever known. He's been tireless in advocating for more housing, our state's biggest issue. Though SB 50 has recently failed in the State Senate, he'll be back with other housing bills in the coming months, and SB 50 (and its predecessor SB 827) have already changed the housing conversation. Wiener did pass SB 35, which has led to the under-construction 2000-home project in Cupertino at the site of Vallco.
Among many other bills, Wiener wrote California's bill protecting net neutrality, and has been working to extend nightlife hours so that bars can be open until 4am.
By contrast, his most prominent opponent, Jackie Fielder, has a housing plan to spend $100B over 10 years to build 100,000 more homes. Unfortunately, we have a shortage of more than 3 million homes (we are 49th in housing units per resident), so this would barely make a dent in the crisis.
David Chiu is running unopposed. Conveniently, he's endorsed Wiener's SB 50, and has introduced AB 1905 to limit the CA mortgage interest deduction. (Did you know you can't deduct your rent from your state taxes, but you can deduct interest from your mortgage on even your second house in Tahoe?)
Phil Ting is also the most pro-housing candidate, having endorsed SB 50.
I outsourced these endorsements to the SF Chronicle. In each case, they selected the more mainstream candidate with more endorsements from other judges and elected officials.
Note that in each case, the SF League of Pissed Off Voters (which is bad) endorsed the opposite candidate.
See the SF Chronicle voter guide for summaries of each Prop (and their endorsement) as well as the SF Voter Pamphlet (and CA Voter Guide for state Prop 13) for fuller details.
Unlike the other, notorious Prop 13which has ruined CA's finances and turned our state into a feudal society, in which homeowners' children and grandchildren can inherit artificially low property tax rates, meaning that those who have owned their home longer can pay a tenth or less of what newer homeowners pay, this one authorizes $15B in state bonds to improve our schools. The SF Chronicle, CA Democratic Party, and most state officials endorse it.
Threshold to pass: 50%
Importance: low
Conviction: low
In 2012, the accrediting commission for SF City College "said the college should lose accreditation because of tangled governance structures, poor fiscal controls and insufficient self-evaluation and reporting," according to the SF Chronicle (Wikipedia has more details). Given my impression that SF City College is not well-run, and the absence of Mayor Breed's or any Supervisors' endorsements on this prop, I am inclined not to give them another $845M in bond funds. The SF Chronicle's endorsement is to vote Yes, with the caveat that they may not be as likely to agree if City College asks for another bond.
Threshold to pass: 55%
Importance: low
Conviction: low
Supported by the Mayor and almost all the Supervisors, this measure authorizes $629M in bonds to finance earthquake- and emergency-preparedness infrastructure improvements.
Threshold to pass: 2/3

This measure restores some retirement benefits to 25 city employees, at a cost of $80,000, fixing a technical issue caused when they transferred from a federal to a city agency.
Threshold to pass: 50%
Importance: tiny
Conviction: medium
Update 2020/02/13: Following discussions and especially the endorsement of San Francisco Bay Area Planning and Urban Research Association (SPUR), I've decided to change my position from No to No endorsement. I'll still be voting No, but my reasons are mostly political (opposition to Aaron Peskin and placing the blame for vacant storefronts on landlords/tenants rather than the city / NIMBY groups). In terms of subtantive impact of this measure, it would likely be minor and even possibly positive. Below remains my original No argument.
This measure places a vacancy tax on commercial landlords or tenants when their space is unoccupied for more than half a year. At a glance, it seems appealing: aren't vacant storefronts bad? Aren't property owners undertaxed anyways (due to Prop 13)?
The root cause of vacant properties is not the lack of a vacancy tax. As a rough estimate: if a 1k sq ft retail space, with 20 ft facing the street, fetches $120k per year in rent, and a landlord is forgoing that, another $5k-$20k per year will likely not change their mind.
In San Francisco, regulations and permitting processes are slow, arbitrary, and expensive, and "community groups" which can often veto projects they don't like, are the culprits of our retail woes. Some egregious examples:
Passing this vacancy tax would validate vilifying landlords as the problem, when they're not, giving credence to an incorrect narrative. It would give these "community groups" more leverage to meddle with small businesses. It's also not clear the tax will work: in Washington, D.C., the city could not provide evidence of properties being renovated or leased as a result of the tax, and some owners may be filing bogus permit applications to avoid the tax (source).
Finally, I don't trust our government to implement the vacancy tax effectively and fairly: there are exceptions in the measure so that businesses aren't taxed while approval permits are pending, but there are so many kinds of permits and potential obstacles, and I'm not confident all of them are covered. I'd be concerned about a tenant being forced to pay the vacancy tax, while being prevented from opening their business. We should not be adding more regulatory burden to both our businesses and government agencies when our problem is too much regulation. Vote No on Prop D.
Threshold to pass: 2/3
Importance: low
Conviction: low
This measure would further restrict SF office development, unless the city meets goals for affordable housing construction that are unlikely to be met.
It's hard to be more critical of this measure than the city's economist, which calculated that it would, after 20 years
It is a worthy goal to correct the housing/jobs imbalance in the Bay Area, by building more homes. But if we don't allow offices to be built in the city, accessible by BART and Caltrain, more of them will be built in car-dependent suburbs. The pressure on affordability will still be there, but we'll have worse traffic and pollution problems. Stripe recently decided to move to South San Francisco, in part because it could find a suitable space here. Vote No on this anti-growth measure.
Threshold to pass: 50%
Importance: high
Conviction: high
Thanks for reading! Let me know of any errors, comments, or simply if you found this a useful guide! It would make my day.

THE RICH MAN'S WIFE A film review by Christopher Null Copyright 1996 Christopher Null
There are a couple of rules inherent to the thriller that any filmmaker should be aware of. First, you have to keep the pace moving so fast that the audience doesn't have time to think about whodunit. And second, if you kill off most of the cast, whoever's left alive at the end of the movie is the one who did the killing.
THE RICH MAN'S WIFE blindly ignores both of these rules, but still manages to float, thanks to a united effort by an exceptional cast and exquisite production values. Amy Holden Jones directs her own screenplay here, a modern-day reworking of Hitchcock's masterful STRANGERS ON A TRAIN.
 This time, it's wife Josie (Halle Berry) kills ultra-rich husband Tony (Christopher McDonald) with the aid of friendly sociopath Cole (Peter Greene). Jones also throws in some interesting twists about Josie's forlorn lover Jake (Clive Owen) and his ex-wife Nora (Clea Lewis from TV's "Ellen") -- the latter who all but steals the show.
But the main problem is that despite a tight 100 minute running time, Jones's pacing is slower than a Yugo headed uphill, primarily because there's not a lot of story filler off the main path of the film (this isn't necessarily a bad thing, it just doesn't work right here). The other problem is that none of the characters in the film are very good at being criminals; leaving mile-wide trails for the cops. (Then again, this may or may not have been intentional. Whatever the case, they're really slow about it.) This lethargy left me restless during much of the movie, but it works to great effect when Jones finally revs into action phase...
Any time a gun comes out on screen, watch it, because sparks are about to fly. The confrontation between Tony and Cole is a powerhouse of a cat & mouse sequence which almost makes the film worth seeing on its own. Jones also uses the mixed-race marriage of Josie and Tony to explore (on a very limited scale) some of the racial dynamics of their situation and of society in general.
The bottom line is that everyone in the film could have stood a shot of adrenaline, but by the time it's over, the thriller will have captured the minds of most of its audience. After all, patience is a virtue, right?
P.S. My biggest complaint -- while you find out *who* did it, you never really find out *how*. If any of my readers figure it out, please drop me a line and let me hear your theory.

--- title: "R data mining" cover: "images/r-data-mining.png" ---
R data mining is a data mining crime book, a new kind of book we developed with good guys at Packt and the great statistician Enrico Pegoraro.
What is a data mining crime book? It is a book stuctured to teach you data mining fundamentals while immersing you in a crime case.
Within R data mining you will be immersed into the life of a wholesale company, where suddenly a misterious drop in profits arises. You will be then caught into the analyses performed to discover where this drop comes from and why.
This will teach you how to:
And finally you will discover the culpright, which obviously is…
well, no… it is not that trivial. You will discover the culpright reading the book.
Beside the innovative approach one of the core features of the book is the care that was devoted to describe assumptions and rationales behind each algo. This was done because within the web there are tons of tutorials about data mining algorithms where models are just introduced and the simple R function is showed without taking the time to explain to the reader which is the main idea behind the model, when you should or should not use them in your analyses. This is actually a relevant point in data mining practice, especially if you want to avoid painful errors. Covering this point was thus defined as the mission of the book and represents the main reason why you could find it useful to read it.
R Data Mining is distributed both in printed and ebook version, and you can get it trough Amazon
p.s.: if you are a chinese reader I have a good news for you since R data mining is currently being translated into traditional chinese and will be published on that language soon.
