Russian, regime strikes kill eight civilians in NW Syria: Observatory for Human Rights
by AFPAL-SAHAARA, SYRIA: Air strikes by the Syrian regime and its ally Russia killed eight civilians in an embattled anti-government bastion in northwestern Syria Wednesday, a Britain-based war monitor said.
A Russian strike killed seven civilians and wounded at least 20 others in an attack in the village of Al-Sahaara in the enclave of Idlib, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
At the site, an AFP correspondent saw a rescue worker carry the limp body of a tiny girl away from the rubble, her clothes blanketed in fine dust.
Bright red blood had gathered around her throat and, under a crop of dusty hair, her eyes were closed.
Another emergency worker stood with a body bag at his feet, as colleagues in white hard hats sprayed water onto a building partially pummelled to grey rubble.
Another civilian was later killed in a regime strike in the town of Jisr al-Shughur in the west of Idlib province, the Observatory said.
Less than 30 kilometres away in the regime-held city of Aleppo, one civilian died and another was wounded in artillery fire by militants state news agency SANA reported, using the regime’s term for all armed opposition groups.
Wednesday’s Russian strike was the second of its kind in less than a week, the Observatory said, after a Russian raid on the village of Jabala on Saturday killed six civilians, including one child.
The monitor, which relies on sources inside Syria, says it determines who carries out an air strike according to flight patterns, as well as aircraft and the munitions involved.
The Idlib region, which is home to some three million people including many displaced by Syria’s eight-year civil war, is controlled by the country’s former al-Qaeda affiliate.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s forces launched a blistering military campaign against Idlib in April, killing around 1,000 civilians and displacing more than 400,000 people from their homes.
A ceasefire announced by the regime’s major backer Moscow has largely held since late August, although the Observatory says skirmishes have persisted.
Assad last month said Idlib was the main front standing in the way of an end to the civil war, as his forces made a partial comeback in northeast Syria to stave off a Turkish offensive against Kurdish fighters there.
The Damascus regime had gained back large swathes of Syria from rebels in the past four years since Moscow intervened militarily by its side.
Syria’s war has killed 370,000 people and displaced millions from their homes since beginning in 2011 with the brutal repression of anti-Assad protests.

Thanks!
Quite a few falks helped out with this.
I keep on bugging a few friends & colleagues about this now and then. Thank you all!!
I feel a special shout out is in order to Michał Kupczyński (ukoms), who suggested that I open this up to GitHub and so patiently answered so many newbie questions :D.

system
OS/161 Reference Manual
Name
system - run command as subprocess
Library
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
Synopsis
#include <stdlib.h>
int
system(const char *command);
Description
The system routine executes command as if it were typed into
the shell.
Return Values
On success, system returns the exit status returned from
waitpid.
On error, -1 is returned, and errno
is set according to the error encountered.
Errors
Any of the errors from fork or
waitpid. Errors generated during
execv cannot readily be reported
back in detail.
Restrictions
Because the OS/161 base system does not include a shell and makes no
assumptions about the shell's operation, system() cannot actually
reliably use the shell to parse and execute command.
Consequently, system() does it itself, in a way which may not
necessarily be compatible with the shell as it finally appears. You
may want to change system() to invoke the shell once the shell is
available.


EOP has established partnerships that provide a significant reduction in fees for various graduate/professional school admission exam preparation courses for low-income EOP students. Additionally, students may also apply for the EOP Discretionary Grant to help cover the graduate application process (exams, test-prep materials, books, applications etc).
Our current agreements include:
Kaplan
:
One time 50% fee reduction for any exam prep course. Students with a GPA above 3.5 may be eligible for 60% fee reduction. They should upload an unofficial transcript from Bearfacts on the
Kaplan survey form
.
Contact: Kerry Walters<EMAIL_ADDRESS>,<PHONE_NUMBER>
Blueprint
:
One time 50% fee reduction for LSAT exam prep course. (
http://blueprintprep.com
)
Contact: Kelly Robinson -
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-<PHONE_NUMBER> OR Kevin Seo
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(OR whichever person the Google Doc has been shared with. There tends to be high turnover within this company.)
Princeton Review
:
One time 50% fee reduction for any exam prep course. (
http://www.princetonreview.com
)
Contact: Mike Attia -510-295-0002 or<PHONE_NUMBER> x5304 OR David Espiritu,
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>,<PHONE_NUMBER> (cell)
Eligibility
Students must be Pell or Dream act eligible in order to receive the fee reduction. Student staff can use Quincy or call a counselor to verify the status. If student staff member cannot verify status and a counselor is not available, have the student fill out a form and submit it to the EOP director. In total, students should be filling out very few paper applications.
Officially, only current undergraduate students are eligible for the fee reduction. However, as an internal process, counselors may allow a six month grace period after graduation. Additionally, if a counselor identifies an urgent need for an alumni to receive a fee reduction, they may put the student on the Googledoc and ask the student not to share their alumni status with the agency representatives.
The Process
Once a students information has been inputted into the GoogleDoc, there is no deadline by which they need to sign up for the test-prep course. Once their eligibility is verified via MyFinaid or Quincy, staff can add the students information to the shared GoogleDoc. The next steps in the process are contingent upon the respective test-prep agency:
Kaplan
:
Upon entering the students information in the
Kaplan GoogleDoc
, staff then provides the student with a unique five character code listed on the Kaplan GoogleDoc next to their name. Student will use this code to receive the fee reduction when signing up for the test-prep course using this
online Kaplan survey form.
Blueprint
:
Upon entering the students information in the
Blueprint GoogleDoc
, staff then provides the student with the contact persons information (students may also contact any Blueprint office). Student will need to notify representative that they are an EOP student.
Princeton Review
:
Upon entering the students information in the
Princeton Review GoogleDoc
, staff then provides the student with the contact persons information (students may also contact any Princeton Review office). Student will need to notify representative that they are an EOP student.
**Please note that once a students information has been inputted into the GoogleDoc, there is no deadline by which they need to sign up for the test-prep course. Officially, no student is eligible for the fee reduction once they graduate. However, as an internal process, if a counselor identifies a urgent need for an alumni to receive a fee reduction, they may put the student on the Googledoc and ask the student not to share their alumni status with the agency representatives.

docker create
説明
Create a new container
利用方法
docker create [OPTIONS] IMAGE [COMMAND] [ARG...]
追加説明
The docker create
command creates a writeable container layer over the
specified image and prepares it for running the specified command. The
container ID is then printed to STDOUT
. This is similar to docker run -d
except the container is never started. You can then use the
docker start <container_id>
command to start the container at any point.
This is useful when you want to set up a container configuration ahead of time
so that it is ready to start when you need it. The initial status of the
new container is created
.
Please see the run command section and the Docker run reference for more details.

Create and start a container
$ docker create -t -i fedora bash

$ docker start -a -i 6d8af538ec5
bash-4.2#
Initialize volumes
As of v1.4.0 container volumes are initialized during the docker create
phase
(i.e., docker run
too). For example, this allows you to create
the data
volume container, and then use it from another container:
$ docker create -v /data --name data ubuntu
240633dfbb98128fa77473d3d9018f6123b99c454b3251427ae190a7d951ad57
$ docker run --rm --volumes-from data ubuntu ls -la /data
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 5 04:10 .
drwxr-xr-x 48 root root 4096 Dec 5 04:11 ..
Similarly, create
a host directory bind mounted volume container, which can
then be used from the subsequent container:
$ docker create -v /home/docker:/docker --name docker ubuntu
9aa88c08f319cd1e4515c3c46b0de7cc9aa75e878357b1e96f91e2c773029f03

Set storage driver options per container.
$ docker create -it --storage-opt size=120G fedora /bin/bash
This (size) will allow to set the container rootfs size to 120G at creation time.
This option is only available for the devicemapper
, btrfs
, overlay2
,
windowsfilter
and zfs
graph drivers.
For the devicemapper
, btrfs
, windowsfilter
and zfs
graph drivers,
user cannot pass a size less than the Default BaseFS Size.
For the overlay2
storage driver, the size option is only available if the
backing fs is xfs
and mounted with the pquota
mount option.
Under these conditions, user can pass any size less than the backing fs size.
Specify isolation technology for container (--isolation)
This option is useful in situations where you are running Docker containers on
Windows. The --isolation=<value>
option sets a container’s isolation
technology. On Linux, the only supported is the default
option which uses
Linux namespaces. On Microsoft Windows, you can specify these values:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
default |
Use the value specified by the Docker daemon’s --exec-opt . If the daemon does not specify an isolation technology, Microsoft Windows uses process as its default value if the |
daemon is running on Windows server, or hyperv if running on Windows client. |
|
process |
Namespace isolation only. |
hyperv |
Hyper-V hypervisor partition-based isolation. |
Specifying the --isolation
flag without a value is the same as setting --isolation="default"
.
Dealing with dynamically created devices (--device-cgroup-rule)
Devices available to a container are assigned at creation time. The assigned devices will both be added to the cgroup.allow file and created into the container once it is run. This poses a problem when a new device needs to be added to running container.
One of the solution is to add a more permissive rule to a container
allowing it access to a wider range of devices. For example, supposing
our container needs access to a character device with major 42
and
any number of minor number (added as new devices appear), the
following rule would be added:
docker create --device-cgroup-rule='c 42:* rmw' -name my-container my-image
Then, a user could ask udev
to execute a script that would docker exec my-container mknod newDevX c 42 <minor>
the required device when it is added.
NOTE: initially present devices still need to be explicitly added to the create/run command

During my ten-year career as a full-time professional in the University of Colorado Boulder admissions office, I served as the director of underrepresented student recruitment where I advocated for at-risk students to receive consideration for admission and support. I also worked with statewide educational access organizations for the good of all Colorado high school and college students. After attending law school out of state, I moved to rural Colorado, where I served the county and the nonprofit sector for the three years I lived there by volunteering for organizations supporting the success of area youth.
I am driven by the desire to serve, and I recognize the value of the work that the commission will do. I believe that my professional and personal experience in combination with my education and skills will add unique value to the commission. Notably, I've lived in Congressional Districts 1, 2, and 3. The timing of the commitment to the commission works very well for me at this transitional time in my life, and it is an experience that I believe will be meaningful.
While studying negotiation and mediation in law school, I practiced open-ended questioning and active listening. These skills are crucial in promoting consensus. Instead of digging my heels into a position and fighting "the other side," I try to understand what my so-called adversary is trying to achieve, and look for opportunities where we agree. From there, we can build creative solutions. This was at the core of the work I did when I mediated disputes in Chicago-area small claims and eviction courts, in which I settled an above-average number of cases. In this work, it was necessary for me to be fair and impartial, and I developed skills and practices to reflect on my impartiality and continually improve. I continue to be aware of unconscious biases and I actively practice identifying them, naming them, and rejecting them.
Everyone analyzes problems and reasons through logical responses multiple times a day. My ability to do so as a higher education professional resulted in me establishing a sterling reputation and being promoted three times, ultimately to a senior supervisor position, in my ten year career. Applied logic and analytical skills are among the most fundamental in legal education and practice, and my law degree and license provide verification of my success in applying logic and reason to problems. Notably, I am exceptional in high-pressure situations. When there is a very clear problem that needs to be addressed quickly, I am able to stay calm by focusing my energy toward innovating a solution.

So Apple is switching from the PowerPC to Intel x86-based chips. I've long desired for this to happen. The PowerPC is a nice CPU and the G5 is awesome. At the start of each generation it beat Intel's best, but would quickly lag behind Intel's relentless release of next generation chips. Apple makes awesome, elegant, computers regardless of the CPU "inside." This won't change. I think switching to Intel chipsets will level the playing field in terms of performance comparisons.
There are a couple of articles that discuss the ramifications of the switch in more detail. The first is an article from ars.
Hell freezes over; it must've been the liquid cooling: Hannibal on the Apple-to-Intel transition
I particularly like the author's conclusion about the Apple-PowerPC mythology:
"..Apple is morphing into a different kind of company—a post-PC company—and the Mac as a platform is going to follow it. "Computers for the rest of us" are taking different forms and filling different niches in our lives, and a machine with the heart of a "RISC workstation" and the elegant, intuitive usability of a fountain pen represents the dream of the bygone PC era. The Mac, for good or for ill, is now free to follow the rest of the market and to leave the idea of the PC behind even as it embraces the "PC" architecture."
Cringely thinks its all about business and crushing Microsoft - an Intel-Apple power play. Personally, I'm not feeling it, but then what do I know about the ways of business.
This should be a wake up call to my Linux brethren (and sisthren). OS X is what desktop Linux should be. "All your desktops have gotten bloated. " You've lost your way in some ways. What's it going to take to get a viable desktop Linux to the end of that last mile?


After finishing the last task, they will be asked to complete a short exit survey, then provided with a link to the Survey Monkey about research discovery. If they are getting compensated for the test, make sure they fill it out.
"This concludes the survey. Thank you for participating. Please fill out the survey monkey linked. You will receive your $10 Amazon Gift card at the email you provided."

EASTSIDE A film review by Christopher Null Copyright 2001 filmcritic.com filmcritic.com
Another Saved by the Bell alumnus attempts to shed the goody-goody image and make it in the big bad world of movies, as Mario López hits the Eastside (of L.A., natch) in the hopes of rescuing a community center from the hands of his employer, an evil crime boss (Efrain Figueroa).
Yes, the movies have been so good to Elizabeth Berkley already that we expect her to pop up in a cameo. Alas, it's not to be. The story goes: López is released from jail on his 21st birthday, whereupon he promptly gets a job as a heavy for Figueroa's bad guy. There's a love story, which -- horror of horrors -- takes us for a loop when we find out the girl he's fallen for is the daughter of a community center owner -- a guy who López is supposed to bully out of his property!
What's a young ex-con to do? Our man López must decide whether money or principles are more important -- even if it costs him his life!
Shudder. This sad imitation of Stand and Deliver is so laughable it barely merits the time it will take to write this review. The acting, the direction, and the script are all so atrocious it's a miracle anyone rented the crew a camera to work with. Seriously, we're talking about dialogue like (and this is a direct quote), "I fuckin' hate that fuckin' fuck!" And ladies and gentlemen, it just gets worse from there.
The only thing more laughable than the movie itself is the fact that on the DVD release, they actually put a commentary track on it. The only thing more laughable than that has to be the content of the commentary track, where the director and stars wax about how much they love the film and how important it is.  No stars for you!

The avocado (Persea americana) is a tree, long thought to have originated in South Central Mexico, classified as a member of the flowering plant family Lauraceae. The fruit of the plant, also called an avocado (or avocado pear or alligator pear), is botanically a large berry containing a single large seed known as a "pit" or a "stone".
Avocados are commercially valuable and are cultivated in tropical and Mediterranean climates throughout the world. They have a green-skinned, fleshy body that may be pear-shaped, egg-shaped, or spherical. Commercially, they ripen after harvesting. Avocado trees are partially self-pollinating and are often propagated through grafting to maintain a predictable quality and quantity of the fruit.

The Solution
GVM - the Groovy enVironment Manager
Groovy enVironment Manager
GVM is a tool for managing parallel Versions of multiple Software Development Kits on most Unix based systems. It provides a convenient command line interface for installing, switching, removing and listing Candidates.
GVM was inspired by the highly useful RVM and rbenv tools, used at large by the Ruby community.
Installation
Open your favourite bash terminal and enter the following:
curl -s get.gvmtool.net | bash
Usage
After installation, you will need to run the code snippet that the installer prompts you to. Alternatively you could open a new terminal. Next, run the following:
gvm help
Groovy enVironment Manager
- Manage parallel Versions of multiple SDKs
- Easy to install/list/switch/remove Candidates
- Windows/Mac/Linux - Use it
- Questions?
Groovy Console
The Groovy Swing Console allows a user to enter and run Groovy Classes or Scripts.
Metaprogramming
- What exactly is Metaprogramming?
-
Runtime
- Categories
- Expando / MetaClass / ExpandoMetaClass
- Metaobject Protocol (MOP) & Intercepting Methods
-
Compile Time
- AST Transformations
- Extensions
What is MetaProgramming?
Metaprogramming is the writing of programs that write or manipulate other programs, including themselves.
Read your Programming Groovy 2 book
Categories
Groovy categories provide a controlled way to inject methods-the effect of method injection is contained within a block of code.
- Class with static methods
- Must take at least 1 parameter (self)
- DOMCateogry / ServletCategory
ExpandoMetaClass
Groovy includes a special MetaClass called an ExpandoMetaClass that allows you to dynamically add methods, constructors, properties and static methods using a neat closure syntax.
Metaobject Protocol (MOP)
- What happens when Groovy calls a method
-
Intercepting Methods
- invokeMethod()
- missingMethod()
- AOP Made Easy
Invoke Method
- Hijacks all method calls to the object (even dynamically added)
- AOP before/after/around
- Suppose we want to run filters sucha as validation, login verification, logging, etc...
- println gotcha
Missing Method
- When a method is not found (or intercepted by invokeMethod)
- GORM Dynamic Finders - findByFirstNameLastName
- "Intercept, Cache, Invoke" Pattern
-
When to use invoke vs methodMissing
If we are interested in intercepting calls to non existant methods we should use methodMissing

This page doesn’t exist. We’re willing to bet that it’s because you pasted in some dodgy URL that a “friend” of yours sent you. We think that means you should really take stock of your life and the people in it. After all, friends don’t send friends broken links.
Either that or something really weird and/or bad happened on our end.


Friends don't let friends go to the salon after a breakup. It's ALWAYS better to take a spoon to a pint of Ben & Jerry's than to take a pair of scissors to your bangs. But sometimes it's inevitable—and even celebrities aren't immune to the itch. From Khloé Kardashian to Reese Witherspoon, these are the breakup haircuts and color change-ups we will N.E.V.E.R. forget.


Here are some of the most common questions along with answers. This Faq is still short, but expected to grow on your input.
Question: Does yabasic still run under Windows XP ?
Answer: Yes. Yabasic and its setup program work well under Windows XP too.
Please note however, that you need to download the zip-file.
Question: Does yabasic run under Wine ?
Answer: Yes. People have successfully installed the Windows-Version of yabasic under
wine. Note however, that there is also a native linux-Version of yabasic.
Question: Can yabasic generate stand-alone programs, which may run
without the yabasic executable ?
Answer: No. Yabasic does not translate
its input into assembly, you always need the yabasic executable. On the other
hand: the yabasic executable is rather small (<200 kB), so you might spread
it around with your yabasic programs.
Question: May I charge for my yabasic programs ?
Answer:
Yes, you may. But you should state clearly, that yabasic itself is available
free of charge. Refer to the copyright
for details.
Question: I have just typed in my yabasic program; How do I
save it ?
Answer: You cannot save it. Yabasic has no builtin
editor and cannot save the text you have typed in ! You have to use another
editor (e.g. Notepad under Windows) to create and save your yabasic programs.
Details on how to do this can be found in the documentation
of yabasic.
Question: Does yabasic handle unicode ?
Answer: No. The internals of yabasic can handle only 8-Bit characters and are therefore limited to what can be done in one of thos encodings, e.g. iso8859-p1. Vhanging this woul require a quite significant effort.
Question: What does the name yabasic mean ?
Answer: yabasic stands for yet-another-basic, an acronym aiming at the large number of different basic-dialects available, when yabasic had been created.

Ruby Classes
A Class on Classes
Dec 18 2014
Classes are a key feature of object-oriented programming that allow us to efficiently categorize different objects and give them certain shared characteristics and methods. By using classes, we can initialize similar objects under the umbrella of a single class and make these objects instances of that class. Let's say that we wanted to create a class called Person. Obviously, any person will have certain basic features like a name, a date of birth, a hometown, and so forth. To account for these characteristics, we can create instance variables which act as placeholders for the particular names, birthdates, etc that the persons we later initialize will have. We can also define methods within a class that will be applicable to all objects created as instances of that class. We might have walk, eat, sleep, study, and work methods for the Person class. Typically, classes always have an initialize method at the beginning which define the way in which each object of the class will be created. With the Person class, a person will need to be assigned basic features from the start: Jane_Smith = Person.New(Jane, Smith, 1994, Chicago) These local variables will be entered by the user ("Jane", "Smith", etc.) and assigned to instance variables (with the "@" sign in front) which set the value of those variables for the particular Person instance that is being created. We will also want to be able to call certain methods on an instance of a Person. Let's use "get_age" as an example: Because we know the birthyear of a given person, as this information was established when a person was initialized, we can call the get_age method on them (which takes in 1 argument, current_year) to get their age. "get_age" is an instance method because it is a method that can be called on any instance (person) of the Person class. We can also use class methods, which are more general methods that apply to the class as a whole. Let's say we wanted to find out how many persons had been created so far. This information has nothing to do with any one person that has been created, but rather has to do with the Person class itself. class Person def initialize(first_name, last_name, birthyear, hometown) @first_name = first_name @last_name = last_name @birthyear = birthyear @hometown = hometown end def walk #something end def eat #something end def get_age(current_year) @current_year = current_year @age = 0 @age = @current_year - @birthyear puts @age end end


SYSENTER and SYSEXIT Instructions
The SYSENTER and SYSEXIT instructions were introduced into the IA-32 architecture in the Pentium II processors for the purpose of providing a fast (low overhead) mechanism for calling operating system or executive procedures. SYSENTER is intended for use by user code running at privilege level 3 to access operating system or executive procedures running at privilege level 0. SYSEXIT is intended for use by privilege level 0 operating system or executive procedures for fast returns to privilege level 3 user code.
For processors supporting Intel® EM64T, the SYSENTER and SYSEXIT instructions are enhanced to allow fast system calls from user code running at privilege level 3 (in compatibility mode or 64-bit mode) to 64-bit executive procedures running at privilege level 0.

filehandle/stream = a valid variable set with the OpenFile, WriteFile command, or OpenTCPStream (v1.52+). The value returned is a text string.
string$ = valid string value. |
|
Once you've opened a disk file (or stream) for writing, use this command to right a whole line of text to the file. Each line of text is automatically terminated with an "end-of-line" mark, consisting of a Carriage Return character followed by a LineFeed character. (i.e. 0Dh, 0Ah ) This function can be used to make plain text files.
Streams can only be used in Blitz Basic v1.52 or greater. |

News story
Over the next week, thousands of young people will be considering their next steps, as they prepare to receive their exam results.
With this being the first year that young people are required to stay in education or training until they turn 18, there’s never been a better time to consider an apprenticeship.
Apprentices now have the opportunity to ‘get in and go far’ with an apprenticeship at some of Britain’s biggest and brightest companies, including Google, ASOS and ITV. With three levels of apprenticeships, intermediate, advanced and higher/degree, people with varying skills and qualifications can consider apprenticeships as a great option for a successful future.
Sue Husband, Director of the National Apprenticeship Service, said:
This is an exciting time of year for young people, but it can also be worrying as they wait to hear what their future holds. We want young people to know that whatever their results, an apprenticeship can offer them a successful future. We want it to become the norm for young people to choose between an apprenticeship and university as equally prestigious routes to a great career and secure finances.
Apprenticeships have increased at a record rate. More than 850,000 people were earning and learning on an apprenticeship in the 2013/14 academic year. And it’s easy to see why. Apprenticeships enable young people and adults to earn while they learn in a real job, gaining a real qualification, up to degree level, and a real future. There’s never been a better time to become an apprentice.
To start an apprenticeship , you need to be 16 or over, living in England and not in full-time education. All apprentices should work for at least 30 hours a week, except in exceptional circumstances. All apprenticeships must be at least 12 months duration and lead to the achievement of an apprenticeship standard.
The new Find an apprenticeship vacancy site, managed by the National Apprenticeship Service, enables people to search and apply for an apprenticeship anywhere in England.
For anyone receiving their results, and not sure what to do next, the National Careers Service offers free, confidential, expert advice to help young people make well informed choices, based on their individual circumstances.
Advisers are available on the phone on 0800 100 900 from 8am to 10pm seven days a week or online by searching for National Careers Service.

giftopnm(1) giftopnm(1) NAME giftopnm - convert a GIF file into a portable anymap SYNOPSIS giftopnm [--alphaout={alpha-filename,-}] [-verbose] [-comments] [-image N] [GIFfile] DESCRIPTION This is a graphics format converter from the GIF format to the PNM (i.e. PBM, PGM, or PPM) format. If the image contains only black and maximally bright white, the output is PBM. If the image contains more than those two colors, but only grays, the output is PGM. If the image contains other colors, the output is PPM. If you have an animated GIF file, you can extract individual frames from it with gifsicle and then convert those using giftopnm. A GIF image contains rectangular pixels. They all have the same aspect ratio, but may not be square (it's actually quite unusual for them not to be square, but it could happen). The pixels of a Netpbm image are always square. Because of the engineering complexity to do otherwise, giftopnm converts a GIF image to a Netpbm image pixel-for-pixel. This means if the GIF pixels are not square, the Netpbm output image has the wrong aspect ratio. In this case, giftopnm issues an informational message telling you to run pnmscale to correct the output. OPTIONS --alphaout=alpha-filename giftopnm creates a PGM (portable graymap) file containing the alpha channel values in the input image. If the input image doesn't contain an alpha channel, the alpha-filename file contains all zero (transparent) alpha values. If you don't specify --alphaout, giftopnm does not generate an alpha file, and if the input image has an alpha channel, giftopnm simply discards it. If you specify - as the filename, giftopnm writes the alpha output to Standard Output and discards the image. See pnmcomp(1) for one way to use the alpha output file. -verbose Produce verbose output about the GIF file input. -comments Only output GIF89 comment fields. -image N Output the specified gif image from the input GIF archive (where N is '1', '2', '20'...). Normally there is only one image per file, so this option is not needed. All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix. RESTRICTIONS This does not correctly handle the Plain Text Extension of the GIF89 standard, since I did not have any example input files containing them. SEE ALSO ppmtogif(1), ppmcolormask(1), pnmcomp(1), gifsicle(1) <http://www.lcdf.org/gifsicle>, ppm(5). AUTHOR Copyright (c) 1993 by David Koblas<EMAIL_ADDRESS>LICENSE If you use giftopnm, you are using a patent on the LZW compression method which is owned by Unisys, and in all probability you do not have a license from Unisys to do so. Unisys typically asks $5000 for a license for trivial use of the patent. Unisys has never enforced the patent against trivial users, and has made statements that it is much less con‐ cerned about people using the patent for decompression (which is what giftopnm does than for compression. The patent expires in 2003 / 2004, depending on the country. Rumor has it that IBM also owns a patent covering giftopnm. A replacement for the GIF format that does not require any patents to use is the PNG format. 13 January 2001 giftopnm(1)

Anti-doping lab in Thailand shut down, leaving gap in system
MONTREAL (AP) - The only authorized anti-doping laboratory in southeast Asia has been forced to suspend operations, leaving a gap in coverage for much of the region.
The World Anti-Doping Agency has ruled the National Doping Control Centre in Thailand can’t test samples for up to six months because of “non-conformities” found during inspections.
WADA’s statement late Wednesday didn’t specify the lab’s exact shortcomings.
“Relevant samples must be securely transported to another WADA-accredited laboratory for analysis,” WADA said.
“This is in order to ensure continued high-quality sample analysis, which also helps preserve athletes’ confidence in this process and the wider anti-doping system.”
That leaves the nearest authorized lab in Beijing, nearly 3,300 kilometers (2,050 miles) away.
A WADA crackdown on substandard testing led to the suspension of the lab in India in August and the complete shutdown of a facility in Kazakhstan in 2017.
That leaves Asia with only five laboratories and large distances between them. They are in Turkey and Qatar in the west, and Japan, China and South Korea in the east.
Shipping substances long distances generally means higher costs for national anti-doping agencies. Many southeast Asian countries’ agencies already struggle for funding and conduct a fraction of the tests done by European countries.
The Bangkok lab tested 3,429 samples in 2017, the last year for which statistics are available, ranking it among the world’s smaller facilities.

Guidance
Information about school and academy financial benchmarking.
The Department for Education’s ( DfE ) review of efficiency in the school system in 2013 set out to discover what the best schools do to make the most of their money and how to apply what they do to the sector as a whole. The review recognised financial benchmarking as a key tool in the drive for greater efficiency in schools.
Benchmarking provides information to help schools consider how they use their resources. It aims to encourage school leaders to make informed financial decisions. It can also prompt school leaders to seek information and advice from similar schools.
DfE sent individual benchmarking report cards to all schools by email in January 2016. The report card provides highlights of schools’ key financial and performance data compared with a small number of statistical neighbours.
DfE has selected similar schools on the basis of pupil deprivation and special educational needs ( SEN ) indicators.
You can view a sample benchmarking report card ( PDF , 46.1KB , 3 pages ) .
The examples and comparisons in the report card aim to help. They do not provide a measure of school efficiency. There may be good reasons why what a school spends in a particular area is greater than that of a similar school. However, benchmarking may lead schools to consider some areas where they are able to improve their efficiency.
You can benchmark your school against any schools you like by using the schools financial benchmarking websites (links below). Schools may also find it useful to contact comparator schools and share best practice.
If you are a school governor or academy trustee, please ask your school for a copy of its benchmarking report card.
If your school has not received a benchmarking report card, please let DfE know .
If you have any feedback about your school’s benchmarking report card or ideas about how DfE could improve it, please let us know by completing this short online questionnaire .
DfE also provides academy and maintained schools with online benchmarking tools. These bring together key spending and performance data to allow schools to make their own comparisons with other similar schools.
You can use online benchmarking tools to prepare reports that compare your school’s income and expenditure profile with that of similar schools. You can use a range of factors such as size, type, percentage of SEN pupils or pupils with English as an additional language.
You can view the schools financial benchmarking website for maintained schools.
The financial benchmarking website for academies contains information about academies that have been open for more than 12 months provided by the annual academies accounts return.
You can watch a demonstration of the department’s financial benchmarking for maintained schools and academies and how you can generate your own benchmarking reports.
We’d like to hear from you if you have any questions, comments or suggestions about this page or any of the schools financial efficiency content. This includes how we can improve the content and what other materials you would find helpful.
If you are an academy, local authority or post-16 provider, please use the EFA enquiry form . Please include schools financial efficiency in the subject title.
For all other institutions, including maintained schools, please use the DfE enquiry form Please include schools financial efficiency in the subject title.

Learn what makes a website.
At the end of this prework, the goal is to have an understanding of HTML, CSS, and how to combine the two to create and style a webpage.
HTML and CSS are two coding languages that are essential to building webpages. Imagine that instead of a webpage, we were building a house. A house needs a structure (walls, roof, foundation), design (layout, decoration), and functionality (plumbing, electricity). For a website, HTML is used to build the structure and CSS is used to design. The functionality is a different language which will be covered later.
Use these resources to introduce yourself to the topics and to complete the exercises.
The following guide will introduce you to HTML. It may seem a little daunting at first since you may not understand the terminology, but do not worry. It is totally okay if some things are still unclear to you, just keep pressing through and these concepts will make sense in time. If you still have questions at the end of this prework and our first class session, feel free to ask them during the class or after in Slack.
These guides will build on top of what you learned about HTML to teach you CSS which is used to layout and decorate your HTML. Again, if not everything is clear, do not worry! Just try to have enough understanding to complete the exercises.
Complete the following exercises to ensure readiness for class. Use the hints to reference the cooresponding resources.
NOTE: After completing an exercise, the site will automatically forward you onto the next exercise. You are not being asked to do more than one exercise per link but feel free to do so if you wish.
The next 2 exercises are espeically important because…
For this next challenge, there are two text boxes where you can edit the code. Just edit the second box.
One of the resources above introduces CSS grid. This is an important concept for a later exercise that has to do with “Responsive Design”. The next exercises will focus on CSS Grid as well.
Now you understand some of the basic concepts behind HTML and CSS! Hopefully this meme makes a little more sense to you than it did before you started.

Polly Hudson: Forget Ghosting - now we're making a big show about relationships
It appears that whoever thinks up new terms to describe dating practices is exhausted, and fully out of ideas... not me!
by Polly Hudson, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/polly-hudson/Bleed any well for long enough and it will eventually run dry.
And so, post Ghosting, Breadcrumbing and Benching, it appears that whoever thinks up new terms to describe dating practices is exhausted, and fully out of ideas.
But fear not, all we need to do is shift our gaze sideways... so now there’s Fleabagging, which means repeatedly going out with people who are wrong for you, just like Fleabag did.
Let’s not stop here. Why ever would we? There are so many other TV shows that are perfect fodder
for this...
Friendsing – being will they/won’t they for so long that everyone’s lost interest by the time you actually do.

EastEndersing – going out with someone only to discover they’re really your muvver.
Bodyguarding – getting together with a colleague, with explosive consequences.
Dallasing – finding out your relationship was all a dream.
Black Mirroring – finding out your relationship was all a simulation.
Line Of Dutying - not getting together with a colleague even though everyone wishes you would.
Have I Got News For Youing – staying in a relationship for years past the sell-by date, even though it’s
clear neither of you are enjoying it any more.
Chernobyling – a toxic relationship.
Handmaids Taleing – a relationship with an unequal power balance.
Life On Marsing – repeatedly going back to an ex.
Goggleboxing – a relationship where you just stay in and watch telly all the time.

Good Morning Britaining – being in a love-hate relationship with someone your friends and family can’t stand.
Casualtying – a relationship where you always end up getting hurt.
Sopranosing – only being with someone because they made you an offer you couldn’t refuse.
Losting - a relationship you carry on with, despite not
really enjoying it any more, because you hope it will all make sense in the end. It doesn’t.
The Muppet Showing - no strings attached.
Star Trekking - to boldly go where no man has gone before, ie your first physical relationship.
Seinfelding - a relationship about nothing.
Game Of Thronesing – going out with a right old dragon.


CRUD Document Operations Using the Python SDK with Couchbase Server
You can access documents in Couchbase using methods of the couchbase.bucket.Bucket
object.
The method for retrieving documents is get()
, get_in()
and retrieve_in()
and the methods for mutating documents are upsert()
, insert()
, replace()
and mutate_in()
.
Examples are shown using the synchronous API. Semantics of the synchronous API are easily translatable to the Twisted and Gevent APIs.
Document input and output types
The Python requires that document IDs be convertible to unicode
objects.
For document values, by default it requires that the document value be of a type serializable to json.dumps
.
See Formats and Non-JSON Documents below for more details
Return value for CRUD operations
All Python SDK operations return a Result
object (or a subclass thereof).
The result object contains general operation information and item metadata retrieved from the server.
Typically a subclass of Result
will be returned which also contains operation-specific result information, such as the value
field for a get()
operation.
The most common fields in a Result
object are:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
|
For retrieval-type operations, this field contains the value of the requested key. |
|
Contains the raw error code received from libcouchbase. If this number is zero then the operation was successful; otherwise it will be an error. The |
|
This is a convenience property which is equivalent to |
|
An opaque object representing the resulting CAS value of the key that was operated on. This value is not meant to be user facing, but should be passed directly to other operations for locking purposes. |
Note that for most of the asynchronous APIs, these objects are not returned per se, but rather passed back to callbacks. For example, with Twisted, a Deferred
object is returned, and the appropriate Result
or Failure
object is passed into the callback or errback, respectively.
Additional options
Additional options may be specified using keyword arguments
Update operations also accept a TTL (expiry) value (ttl
) which will instruct the server to delete the document after a given amount of time.
This option is useful for transient data (such as sessions).
By default documents do not expire.
See Expiration Overview for more information on expiration.
Creating and updating full documents
Documents may be created and updated using the Bucket.upsert()
, Bucket.insert()
, and Bucket.replace()
family of methods.
Read more about the difference between these methods at Primitive Key-Value Operations in the Couchbase developer guide.
These methods accept two mandatory arguments:
-
key
: The ID of the document to modify. This should be a Python string or unicode object. -
value
: The desired new value of the document. This may be anything that can be serialized as JSON (other input types can also be specified, see Document input and output types).
Additional options can be specified to the operation:
-
cas
: The CAS value for the document. If the CAS on the server does not match the CAS supplied to the method, the operation will fail with acouchbase.exceptions.KeyExistsError
error. See Concurrent Document Mutations for more information on the usage of CAS values. -
ttl
: Specify the expiry time for the document. If specified, the document will expire and no longer exist after the given number of seconds. See Expiration Overview for more information. -
format
: Specify the format of the new value. This indicates how thevalue
should be serialized before being sent to the cluster. By default only JSON-serializable objects may be supplied as values. See Document input and output types. -
persist_to
,replicate_to
: Specify durability requirements for the operations. A value of-1
indicates that the specific requirement will be set to the maximum possible.
Upon success, the returned Result
object will contain the new CAS value of the document.
If the document was not mutated successfully, an exception is raised.
See Handling Exceptions and Other Errors with the Python SDK in Couchbase for more information on exception types and how to handle them.
rv = bucket.insert('document_name', {'some': 'value'})
print rv
Output:
OperationResult<RC=0x0, Key=u'document_name', CAS=0x707339a4125aaa13>
If the document being inserted already exists, the client will raise a couchbase.exceptions.KeyExistsError
.
If your application simply wants to set the value ignoring whether it exists or not, use the upsert()
method.
Retrieving full documents
Documents may be retrieved using the Bucket.get()
method.
The get()
method has a single mandatory argument:
-
key
: The document ID to retrieve
Other options include:
-
ttl
: Set the expiration for the document. This operation is known as a get-and-touch operation. See Expiration Overview for more information. -
replica
: This may be passed as a boolean to issue a replica read. This may be used if access to the master/primary node is temporarily unavailable. -
quiet
: Suppress throwing exceptions if the document does not exist. Rather than throwing an exception, status can be obtained from theResult.success
property.rv = bkt.get('maybe', quiet=True) if rv.success: handle_value(rv) else: print "Item not found"
Upon success, a ValueResult
object is returned.
The actual document may be access by using the ValueResult.value
property.
Additional properties may also be accessed from the returned object.
See Return value for CRUD operations.
The ValueResult.value
will contain a native Python object, deserialized from JSON (or another format, per Document input and output types).
If the document does not exist (and quiet=True
was not specified), a couchbase.exceptions.NotFoundError
will be raised.
rv = bucket.get('document_name')
print "Result object is:", rv
print "Actual value is:", rv.value
Sample output:
Result object is ValueResult<RC=0x0, Key=u'document_name', Value={u'some': u'value'}, CAS=0x20504a5e6a5aaa13, Flags=0x2000000> Actual value is {u'some': u'value'}
If the item does not exist, the client will raise a couchbase.exceptions.NotFoundError
, which you can catch:
from couchbase.exceptions import NotFoundError
try:
rv = bkt.get('NOTEXISTENT')
except NotFoundError as e:
print "Item not found", e
Removing full documents
Documents may be removed using the Bucket.remove()
method.
This method takes a single mandatory argument:
-
key
: The ID of the document to remove
Some additional options:
-
quiet
: Do not raise an exception when attempting to remove a document which does not exist. -
cas
: Only remove the document if the CAS has not changed.
Modifying expiraton
Document expiration can be performed using the Bucket.touch()
method.
cb.touch('document_id', ttl=5)
You can also set the ttl
parameter for methods which support it:
cb.upsert('expires', "i'm getting old...", ttl=5)
print cb.get('expires').value
time.sleep(6)
print cb.get('expires').value
i'm getting old... Traceback (most recent call last): File "exp.py", line 10, in <module> print cb.get('expires').value File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/couchbase/bucket.py", line 489, in get replica=replica, no_format=no_format) couchbase.exceptions._NotFoundError_0xD (generated, catch NotFoundError): <Key=u'expires', RC=0xD[The key does not exist on the server], Operational Error, Results=1, C Source=(src/multiresult.c,309)>
Atomic document modifications
Additional atomic document modifications can be performing using the Python SDK.
You can modify a counter document using the Bucket.counter()
method.
You can also use the Bucket.append
and Bucket.prepend
methods to perform raw byte concatenation
Batching Operations
Many operations can be batched in the Python SDK using their *_multi
equivalent.
For example, to batch multiple Bucket.get()
calls, you would use Bucket.get_multi()
.
The various *_multi
operations all return a MultiResult
object which acts like a dictionary: it maps each individual key to its operation which was performed.
cb.upsert_multi({
'foo': 'fooval',
'bar': 'barval',
'baz': 'bazval'})
for key, result in cb.get_multi(('foo', 'bar', 'baz')).items():
print '{0}: {1.value}'.format(key, result)
baz: bazval foo: fooval bar: barval
You can use the Item API to pass additional per-operation options to multi methods.
Operating with sub-documents
| Sub-Document API is available starting Couchbase Server version 4.5. See Sub-Document Operations for an overview. |
Sub-document operations save network bandwidth by allowing you to specify paths of a document to be retrieved or updated.
The document is parsed on the server and only the relevant sections (indicated by paths) are transferred between client and server.
You can execute sub-document operations in the Python SDK using the lookup_in
, mutate_in
, and retrieve_in
methods.
Each of these methods accepts a key
as its mandatory first argument, followed by one or more command specifications specifying a specifying an operation and a document field operand.
You may find all the operations in the couchbase.subdocument
module.
import couchbase.subdocument as SD res = cb.lookup_in('docid', SD.get('path.to.get'), SD.exists('check.path.exists')) res = cb.mutate_in('docid', SD.upsert('path.to.upsert', value, create_parents=True), SD.remove('path.to.del'))
For simply retrieving a list of paths, you may use the retrieve_in
convenience method:
res = cb.retrieve_in('docid', 'path1', 'path2', 'path3')
All sub-document operations return a special SubdocResult
object which is a subclass of Result
.
In contrast with a normal Result
object, a SubdocResult
object contains multiple results with multiple statuses, one result/status pair for every input operation.
You can access an individual result/status pair by addressing the SubdocResult
object as a mapping, and then using either the index position or the path of the operation as the key:
res = cb.lookup_in('docid', SD.get('foo'), SD.exists('bar'), SD.exists('baz'))
# First result
res['foo']
# or
res[0]
Using the []
(getitem
) functionality will raise an exception if the individual operation did not complete successfully.
You can also use SubdocResult.get()
to return a tuple of (errcode, value)
Formats and Non-JSON Documents
| See Non-JSON Documents for a general overview of using non-JSON documents with Couchbase |
All Python objects which can be represented as JSON may be passed unmodified to a storage function, and be received via the get
method without any additional modifications.
You can modify the default JSON encoders used by the Python SDK using the couchbase.set_json_converters
function.
This function accepts a pair of encode and decode functions which are expected to behave similarly to json.dumps
and json.loads
respectively.
Storage operations accept a format
keyword argument which may be one of couchbase.FMT_JSON
(to indicate the object should be serialized as JSON), couchbase.FMT_UTF8
(to serialize the object as a UTF-8 encoded string), couchbase.FMT_BYTES
(to serialize an object as a raw set of bytes; note the Python object in question must be of type bytes
), couchbase.FMT_PICKLE
(to serialize an object using Python’s native pickle
module).
You may also define new formats and utilize them via a custom transcoder.
You can implement a custom transcoder if none of the pre-configured options are suitable for your application. A custom transcoder converts intputs to their serialized forms, and deserializes encoded data based on the item flags. The transcoder interface is described in the API documentation (http://pythonhosted.org/couchbase/api/transcoder.html), and an example (http://pythonhosted.org/couchbase/api/transcoder.html) is also provided in the source repository. When implementing a transcoder

MotoGP: Jorge Lorenzo to start last race from 16th after Quartararo pips Marquez to pole
by FSA EditorFabio Quartararo and Marc Marquez make up familiar names at the front of the grid for the final race of Jorge Lorenzo’s career.
Jorge Lorenzo will begin his last MotoGP race from 16th on the grid after Fabio Quartararo pipped world champion Marc Marquez to pole position in qualifying for the Valencia Grand Prix.
Repsol Honda rider Lorenzo, a three-time world champion in the premier class, failed to make it out of Q1 on Saturday after announcing he would be retiring after this race, the last of 2019.
His team-mate Marquez, who has already sealed the riders’ championship, finished just 0.032 seconds adrift of Rookie of the Year Quartararo, who claimed his sixth pole of the season.
Jack Miller, who was 0.108s behind, joins them on the front row, with Maverick Vinales, winner in Malaysia last time out, starting from fourth.
Quartararo’s Petronas Yamaha team-mate Franco Morbidelli and Ducati star Andrea Dovizioso make up the remainder of the second row, with Joan Mir in seventh.
Alex Rins claimed eighth after progressing from Q1 alongside Pol Espargaro, with Johann Zarco – who is bidding to replace Lorenzo next season – missing out on the last session to finish 13th.
Cal Crutchlow was ninth ahead of Danilo Petrucci, Espargaro and Valentino Rossi.
Quartararo had previously topped the timesheets in FP1, FP2 and FP3 and will now look to end the campaign with a first race victory, but will have the relentless Marquez, who recovered from a FP4 crash, right there with him from the start.
