This is the 375 Home Page
Page Contents
This page house all of my 375 coursework. It currently have links to my site's HomePage and all of my 375 CourseWork.
Homework One is my introduction to HTML tags and its properties. It has internal and external links. It has a form and a table with picture links.
Homework Two is a css heavy assignment. I was given a site layout and css template and asked to make an ebook. Because of homework two my site have a unique color scheme and an original logo.
Homework Three is my introduction to JavaScript. The script prompts the user for three integers and alerts information to the user. After that Its prompts the user for a radius and then displays a ton of information to the HTML page.
Homework Four is my introduction to adding loops, objects and events to JavaScript. Homework Four is my math game called Multiplication Blitz.
This course helped introduce me to web development. Right now I am in the process of creating my own personal website and blog.

Few double-acts in the history of the universe have ever been so magnificent as Simon And Garfunkel Crosse & Blackwell Mr Key and Lepke B. Those who witnessed our only ever collaboration at the (now demolished) Jellyfish Theatre in October 2010 are still too stunned to speak about it, even in hushed tones.
Now, the legendary duo is reforming for Resonance104.4FM's tenth anniversary party on the first of May. We will be on the bill alongside luminaries including Bob Drake and Kinnie The Explorer. Full details, including ticket-ordering linkage web-wizardry, here.
I strongly recommend that you attend, and whoop your cheers, and throw your hats in the air, and other such expressions of unbridled enthusiasm, including swooning with overexcitement.

This document describes the form library included with the PicoLisp system.
The purpose of this document is to go into the form library in more depth and hopefully supply an overview of the various components involved.
This document builds upon the information provided in Application Dev. Please start by going through this section of the documentation.
Also remember to take a look at the PicoLisp Tutorial for an explanation of some aspects of PicoLisp, and scan through the list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).
A typical usage of forms and form components can be found in the example application included with the PicoLisp distribution. This application has a number of search forms in app/gui.l and forms to display and edit objects, for example app/cusu.l.
Let's have a look at app/cusu.l. This file displays and allows you to edit objects of the class +Cusu (Customer/ Supplier, defined in app/er.l). The beginning of this file looks like this:
########################################################################
(must "Customer/Supplier" Customer)
(menu ,"Customer/Supplier"
(idForm ,"Customer/Supplier" '(choCuSu) 'nr '+CuSu T '(may Delete)
'((: nr) " -- " (: nm))
....
########################################################################
The first line checks whether the user has the right permissions to access this page. After that a call to a function called 'menu' follows. This function is defined in app/gui.l and creates the menu and basic page layout of this application. Nested within the call to 'menu' is our first, direct encounter with a form function. In this case it is a call to 'idForm'. Let us look a little closer at this call.
The first parameter, "Customer/Supplier", is used in the form heading. Parameter number two is interesting. '(choCuSu) creates a dialog that makes is possible to search for an existing object to display/ edit, or create a new one. The function 'choCuSu'is defined in app/gui.l and uses another form function, called 'diaForm'. An abbreviated version is shown below.
########################################################################
(de choCuSu (Dst)
(diaform '(Dst)
(<grid> "--.-.-."
# Form components
... )
(gui 'query '(+QueryChart) (cho)
# Pilog query
9
'((This) (list This (: nr) This (: nm2) (: em) (: plz) (: ort) (: tel) (: mob))) )
(<table> 'chart (choTtl ,"Customers/Suppliers" 'nr '+CuSu)
# Table headers
(do (cho)
(<row> (alternating)
(gui 1 '(+DstButton) Dst)
...
(gui 9 '(+TelField)) ) ) )
(<spread>
(scroll (cho))
(newButton T Dst '(+CuSu) ...)
(cancelButton) ) ) )
########################################################################
As can be seen in app/gui.l, the search dialogs contain a lot of functionality. This is quite typical. 'choCuSu' starts off by calling 'diaform'. This function is used when we want a form to behave in a similar way to a dialog (See Alerts and Dialogs for a description of how dialogs work in the framework). The first part of our diaform is a 'grid' containing some form components. See application development for a more thorough description of form components.
The grid is followed by another gui component, this time a +QueryChart. The chart is an interesting, and very useful concept. The basic idea is to separate how data is presented in the gui from the internal representation. See charts for more information.
The +QueryChart has a Piloq query used to fetch the data we want to show from the database. This part is followed by a number, in this case 9, which tells the Chart how many columns of data to expect. The last part is a function that takes care of putting data into the chart gui from the dataset retrieved by the Pilog query.
Finally, a table is used to present the result. The number of columns in this table must match the number mentioned above, the one that tells the chart how many columns to expect.
What is described in the preceding section is a common way of structuring applications in PicoLisp. The objects are displayed and edited using idForms, which use diaforms to select or create new objects to view or edit. Please take some time to study the demo app included with the distribution. Another good idea is to start experimenting with some small application of your own. It is a very good way to get acquainted with the language and framework, and I highly recommend it! One way to do that would be to start making changes to the demo application. Just copy it to a directory of your choice and start exploring. It really is a lot of fun!
This section provides a reference manual for the form library functions. See the thematically grouped list of indexes below.
Though PicoLisp is a dynamically typed language (resolved at runtime, as opposed to statically (compile-time) typed languages), many functions can only accept and/or return a certain set of data types. For each function, the expected argument types and return values are described with the following abbreviations:
The primary data types:
num
- Number
sym
- Symbol
lst
- List
Other (derived) data types
any
- Anything: Any data type
flg
- Flag: Boolean value (NIL
or non-NIL
)
cnt
- A count or a small number
dat
- Date: Days, starting first of March of the year 0 A.D.
tim
- Time: Seconds since midnight
obj
- Object/Class: A symbol with methods and/or classes
var
- Variable: Either a symbol or a cons pair
exe
- Executable: An executable expression (eval
)
prg
- Prog-Body: A list of executable expressions (run
)
fun
- Function: Either a number (code-pointer), a symbol (message) or a list (lambda)
msg
- Message: A symbol sent to an object (to invoke a method)
cls
- Class: A symbol defined as an object's class
typ
- Type: A list of cls
symbols
pat
- Pattern: A symbol whose name starts with an at-mark "@
"
pid

Arguments evaluated by the function (depending on the context) are quoted
(prefixed with the single quote character "'
").

crux percolator
Usage:
crux percolator [options] <protein input> <search results directory>
Description:
Percolator is a semi-supervised learning algorithm that dynamically learns to separate target from decoy PSMs. The algorithm is described in this article:
Lukas Käll, Jesse Canterbury, Jason Weston, William Stafford Noble and Michael J. MacCoss. "Semi-supervised learning for peptide identification from shotgun proteomics datasets." Nature Methods. 4(11):923-925, 2007.For more on q-values and posterior error probabilities (PEP), see the documentaion for calibrate-scores.
Crux now includes code from Percolator 1.05. The current version of Percolator can be downloaded here. External versions of Percolator can be applied to the output of the Crux tools, but won't be used by the
crux percolator
command.Percolator requires as input two collections of PSMs, one set derived from matching observed spectra against real ("target") peptides, and a second derived from matching against "decoy" peptides. Crux generates these decoys on the fly. Percolator will also accept a second set of decoy PSMs and use one set in training and one in calculating q-values. Producing two sets of decoy PSMs is the search-for-matches default behavior.
The features used by percolator to represent each PSM are summarized here.
Input:
Output:
- <protein input > – The name of the file in fasta format or the directory containing the protein index from which to retrieve proteins and peptides.
- <search results directory> – A folder in which all the PSM result files are located. The program looks for files produced by
crux search-for-matches
(ending in '.search.target.txt
' or '.search.decoy.txt
') . All such files in the given directory are analyzed jointly. Note that the directory should not contain results from both types of search algorithms.Options:
The program writes files to the folder
crux-output
by default. The name of the output folder can be set by the user using the--output-dir
option. The following files will be created:- percolator.params.txt: a file containing the name and value of all parameters/options for the current operation. Not all parameters in the file may have been used in the operation. The resulting file can be used with the
--parameter-file
option for other crux programs.- percolator.target.txt: a tab-delimited text file containing the PSMs. See txt file format for a list of the fields.
- percolator.target.pep.xml: a file containing the PSMs in pepxml format. See pep xml file format for further reference. This file can be used as input to some of the tools in the Transproteomic Pipeline.
- percolator.log.txt: a log file containing a copy of all messages that were printed to stderr.
--pi-zero <value>
– The estimated proportion of target scores that are drawn according to the null distribution. Default=1.0.mod-mass-format <mod-only|total|separate>
– Specify how sequence modifications are reported in various ouptut files. Each modification is reported as a number enclosed in square braces following the modified reside; however, the number may correspond to one of three different masses: (1) 'mod-only' reports the value of the mass shift induced by the modification; (2) 'total' reports the mass of the residue with the modification (residue mass plus modification mass); (3) 'separate' is the same as 'mod-only', but multiple modifications to a single amino acid are reported as a comma-separated list of values. For example, suppose amino acid D has an unmodified mass of 115 as well as two modifications of masses +14 and +2. In this case, the amino acid would be reported as D[16] with 'mod-only', D[131] with 'total', and D[14,2] with 'separate'.
--fileroot <string>
– Thefileroot
string will be added as a prefix to all output file names. Default = none.--output-dir <filename>
– The name of the directory where output files will be created. Default = crux-output.--overwrite <T|F>
Replace existing files if true (T) or fail when trying to overwrite a file if false (F). Default = F.--parameter-file <filename>
– A file containing command-line or additional parameters. See the parameter documentation page for details.--feature-file <string>
– Optional file in which to write the features. Default = none.--verbosity <0-100>
– Specify the verbosity of the current processes. Each level prints the following messages, including all those at lower verbosity levels: 0-fatal errors, 10-non-fatal errors, 20-warnings, 30-information on the progress of execution, 40-more progress information, 50-debug info, 60-detailed debug info. Default = 30.

ToolbarsThis is where you can customize the toolbars by adding or removing buttons, or changing them and their behaviors. Any top level object put here will create a new toolbar. Buttons are simply nested inside the toolbars, along with button groups. Some toolbars are custom (the snippetable toolbar for instance), and to denote that use _custom: true. You can then build the toolbar yourself with it’s own behavior. Buttons can be grouped, and a button group is simply a way to wrap buttons for styling — they can also handle enabling or disabling all the buttons within it by using a context. The table button group is a good example of this. It’s important to note that each of the button names (keys), in each toolbar object must be unique, regardless of if it’s in a button group, or nested, etc. This is because styling is applied to them by name, and because their name is used in the event that’s fired when you click on them. Button format: The available button types are:
Separators are any “button” that’s not an array, and are expected to be a string. You can use two different separator styles: line (‘–’), and spacer (‘ ’). |

Hijacking Links & FormsMercury will hijack links and forms that don’t have a target set, or the target is set to _self and will set it to _top. This is because the target must be set properly for Mercury to not get in the way of some functionality, like proper page loads on form submissions etc. Mercury doesn’t do this to links or forms that are within editable regions because it doesn’t want to impact the html that’s saved. With that being explained, you can add classes to links or forms that you don’t want this behavior added to. Let’s say you have links that open a lightbox style window, and you don’t want the targets of these to be set to _top. You can add classes to this array, and they will be ignored when the hijacking is applied. |
nonHijackableClasses: [], |
Ajax and CSRF HeadersSome server frameworks require that you provide a specific header for Ajax requests. The values for these CSRF tokens are typically stored in the rendered DOM. By default, Mercury will look for the Rails specific meta tag, and provide the X-CSRF-Token header on Ajax requests, but you can modify this configuration if the system you’re using doesn’t follow the same standard. |
csrfSelector: 'meta[name="csrf-token"]',
csrfHeader: 'X-CSRF-Token', |
Pasting & SanitizingWhen pasting content into Mercury it may sometimes contain HTML tags and attributes. This markup is used to style the content and makes the pasted content look (and behave) the same as the original content. This can be a desired feature or an annoyance, so you can enable various sanitizing methods to clean the content when it’s pasted. Sanitizing options:
Using the whitelist configurationThe white list allows you to specify tags and attributes that are allowed when pasting content. Each item in this object should contain the allowed tag, and an array of attributes that are allowed on that tag. If the allowed attributes array is empty, all attributes will be removed. If a tag is not present in this list, it will be removed, but without removing any of the text or tags inside it. Note: Content is always sanitized if looks like it’s from MS Word or similar editors regardless of this configuration. |

sanitize: 'whitelist',

}
}, |
Snippet Options and PreviewWhen a user drags a snippet onto the page they’ll be prompted to enter options for the given snippet. The server is expected to respond with a form. Once the user submits this form, an Ajax request is sent to the server with the options provided; this preview request is expected to respond with the rendered markup for the snippet. Name will be replaced with the snippet name (eg. example) |
snippets: {
method: 'POST',
optionsUrl: '/mercury/snippets/:name/options.html',
previewUrl: '/mercury/snippets/:name/preview.html'
}, |
Image UploadingIf you drag images (while pressing shift) from your desktop into regions that support it, it will be uploaded to the server and inserted into the region. This configuration allows you to specify if you want to disable/enable this feature, the accepted mime-types, file size restrictions, and other things related to uploading. You can optionally provide a handler function that takes the response from the server and returns an object: {image: {url: ‘[your provided url]’} Note: Image uploading is only supported in some region types, and some browsers. |
uploading: {
enabled: true,
allowedMimeTypes: ['image/jpeg', 'image/gif', 'image/png'],
maxFileSize:<PHONE_NUMBER>,
inputName: 'image[image]',
url: '/images',
handler: false
}, |
BehaviorsBehaviors are used to change the default behaviors of a given region type when a given button is clicked. For example, you may prefer to add HR tags using an HR wrapped within a div with a classname (for styling). You can add your own complex behaviors here. You can see how the behavior matches up directly with the button names. It’s also important to note that the callback functions are executed within the scope of the given region, so you have access to all it’s methods. Here’s some examples to help you get started. |
behaviors: { |
|
foreColor: function(selection, options) { selection.wrap(‘’, true) }, |
htmlEditor: function() { Mercury.modal('/mercury/modals/htmleditor.html', { title: 'HTML Editor', fullHeight: true, handler: 'htmlEditor' }); }
}, |
ContextsContexts are used callback functions used for highlighting and disabling/enabling buttons and buttongroups. When the cursor enters an element within an html region for instance we want to disable or highlight buttons based on the properties of the given node. You can see some examples of contexts in: Mercury.Toolbar.Button.contexts and Mercury.Toolbar.ButtonGroup.contexts |
|
Region ClassMercury identifies editable regions by a region class. This class has to be added in your HTML in advance, and is the only real Mercury code/naming exposed in the implementation of Mercury. To allow this to be as configurable as possible, you can set the name of the class here. When switching to preview mode, this configuration is used to generate a class to indicate that Mercury is in preview mode — which will be this class with ‘-preview’ appended (so, mercury-region-preview by default) |
regionClass: 'mercury-region',
|

Abstract: In this paper, a novel and computationally fast algorithm for computing weighted v-statistics in resampling both univariate and multivariate data is proposed. To avoid any real resampling, we have linked this problem with ﬁnite group action and converted it into a problem of orbit enumeration. For further computational cost reduction, an efﬁcient method is developed to list all orbits by their symmetry orders and calculate all index function orbit sums and data function orbit sums recursively. The computational complexity analysis shows reduction in the computational cost from n! or nn level to low-order polynomial level. 1

Zelensky confirms "restart" of Ukraine's relations with Czech Republic
The head of state emphasized that for the first time in 10 years, the Czech prime minister paid an official visit to Ukraine.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky announced the restart of relations and the resumption of political dialogue at the highest intergovernmental level between Ukraine and the Czech Republic.
The statement came at a joint press conference in Kyiv with Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, Andrej Babіs, according to a UNIAN correspondent.
Zelensky noted that for the first time in 10 years, the head of the Czech government arrived in Ukraine on an official visit.
"Today, our countries are resuming political dialogue at the highest intergovernmental level," he said.
The head of the Ukrainian state called negotiations with the head of the Czech government objective and intense.
"When we talk about a restart, this is about a desire to meet and a desire to negotiate. This visit and our meeting testify to us entering a new level of relations between our countries," said the president. "The position of Mr. Prime Minister is that Crimea and Donbas are parts of Ukraine, so we can put an end to [speculations]. This is the position of the Czech Republic toward the citizens of Ukraine and to our sovereignty."
"As for the prospects of our relations… Firstly, today there is a Ukrainian-Czech forum. It seems to me that the main thing in any relationship is that they should be economically beneficial for both countries. Today in Ukraine there are about 200 representatives of Czech businesses. We devoted a significant part of our conversation to what the Ukrainian side should do in order to increase the launch of Czech enterprises in Ukraine and increase Czech capital investments in Ukraine. This is investment protection and respect in business relations," he added.
At a joint press conference with the President Zelensky, Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis announced a reset of relations with Ukraine.


Government Transfer Payments
Changes to the FRB/US Model
- Federal and state and local (S&L) government net transfer payments (GFTN and GSTN) were consolidated into a single government transfer net payments variable (GTN).
Old model
gftn - gftn_aerr = .01*pgdp*gft
gftn - gftn_aerr = .01*pgdp*gft
New model
gtn - gtn_aerr = .01*pgdp*gtr
- Real (deflated by PGDP) federal and S&L government net transfer payments (GFT and GST) were consolidated into a single government transfer net payments variable (GTR).
Old model
gft - gft_aerr = (gftrd + gftrt)*xgdpt
gst - gst_aerr = (gstrd + gstrt)*xgdpt
New model
gtr - gtr_aerr = (gtrd + gtrt)*xgdpt
- The deviation of the ratios of federal and S&L transfers to GDP from their trend ratios were replaced by a single and consolidated variable, GTRD.
Old model
gftrd - gftrd_aerr =
y_gftrd(1)
+ y_gftrd(2)*gftrd(-1)
+ y_gftrd(3)*xgap2
gstrd - gstrd_aerr =
y_gstrd(1)
+ y_gstrd(2)*gstrd(-1)
+ y_gstrd(3)*xgap2
New model
gtrd - gtrd_aerr =
y_gtrd(1)*gtrd(-1)
+ y_gtrd(2)*xgap2
The eoxgenous variables GFTRT and GSTRT (Federal and State/Local government, trend ratio of transfer payments to GDP) have been combined to become GTRT.
Some details of the changes and simplifications
- We have simplified and reduce the number of variables forming the government transfer payment block through the consolidation of the federal and S&L variables.


The RDF semantics recommendation identifies a subset of XML schema datatypes that are suitable for use in RDF. The following XML datatypes may be used in RDF typed literals. For example, an xs:string "foobar", would be represented in RDF (N3) as "foobar"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>.
The exceptions include:
The following sections explore work-arounds for all of these datatypes.
This type is the base of all simple types with an unconstrained lexical space. User defined restrictions of xs:anySimpleType are not allowed. Indeed, users are generally advised to steer clear of it altogether.
Yet, both elements and attributes may be defined to be of type xs:anySimpleType (it's also the default type for attributes). Also, anySimpleType may be used as the base of a simpleContent extension.
Thinking about an RDF savvy mapping, it occupies a similar place in the pantheon of classes as rdfs:Literal, the superclass of all literals including datatypes. Thus any XML content of type xs:anySimpleType is mapped to an rdfs:Literal.
The problem with xs:duration is that there's no well-defined total ordering over it's value space (durations are partially ordered). The problem stems from there being an indeterminate number of days in a month. The recommended solution used by Gloze is to distill a single period such as "P7Y2M26DT14H18M10S" (years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds) into separate xs:yearMonthDuration "P7Y2M" (years, months) and xs:dayTimeDuration "P26DT14H18M10S" (days, hours, minutes, seconds) datatypes. The reverse process, is equivalent to adding the these values, both of which are subclasses of duration. When adding two durations, each component is added independently, ignoring - in particular - any carry from days to months.
An XML schema ENTITY allows the substitution of common text values or balanced mark-up defined as XML entities. ENTITY values must match an entity name declared in the DTD of the instance document. The value space of unexpanded entities is scoped to the instance document it appears in. For the XML to RDF mapping, internally defined entities are therefore expanded. As they may include balanced mark-up, an expanded entity can be described as an RDF XMLLiteral. There is currently no reverse mapping due to technical issues in editing document type declarations in level 2 DOM.
An element is considered to have an ID if it has an attribute of type ID, or if the type of the element itself is an ID.
IDs have no distinguishing features looking at the XML alone, they look like ordinary content. We look to the XML schema which will identify the datatype as xml schema ID. The ID is associated with the enclosing element, and that element can have at most one ID.
XML IDs are defined to have document scope, such that a given ID must be unique within a single document and that each ID reference should have a corresponding ID within the same document. One advantage of the mapping into RDF is that a single RDF model may contain descriptions of multiple documents. We have ensure that we preserve the global uniqueness of identifiers, and do not lose the correlation between IDs and their references when moving to this global context. An identifier of type ID can be transformed into a URI by treating it as a fragment identifier relative to the document base.
For example, a base http://example.org/base
an XML ID "foobar" combine to give the URI, http://example.org/base#foobar
.
Properties of type ID will disappear, as these simply define the URI of the identified resource. A corresponding reference to this resource with an IDREF is similarly expanded into a URI reference.
NOTATIONs are restricted to QNames declared in the schema. For the purposes of RDF mapping they are subject to the same rules as QNames. The target namespace and notation name are expanded to give an absolute URI for the notation resource.
QNames define the space of (optionally) qualified local names. The scope of an XML namespace prefix includes the element it is defined in and its children (subject to shadowing). This lexical scoping doesn't translate directly into RDF where everything has global scope. However, the expanded QName is a URI, so it may be translated into an object reference, though typically we have no knowledge of the type of object referred to. This URI becomes associated with a resource.
For example, given a namespace prefix 'eg' defined as "http://example.org" the QName "eg:foobar" would be expanded to give the URI, http://example.org#foobar
.
Although list types are treated as simple in XML schema, they are not recommended for use in RDF. Instead, we construct an rdf:list of the corresponding non-list type (xs:IDREF, xs:ENTITY, xs:NMTOKEN).

My daughter has JRA (Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis) and has flare ups form time to time that make normal school activities like writing, participating in PE or carrying her backpack much harder for her. We've had to deal with plenty of school absences, surprise doctors’ appointments and everything else that goes along with having a kid with chronic illness all through elementary school. In past years, I've always just scheduled a conference with her teacher at the beginning of the year to explain the situation, but this year she's starting middle school, is changing classes throughout the day and is at the age where she's become much more sensitive about all this. She's insisting that she wants to wait and see if she has problems this year before telling any of her teachers, but I think all of her teachers should know about this before the school year really gets underway. As a teacher, what do you think?
I absolutely agree with you! I think that it's important for your daughter's health that you contact all of her teachers as soon as possible. It will be to her benefit if all of her teachers are aware of, and sensitive to her condition.
However, that being said, I think that a compromise is in order so as to help your daughter feel less self-conscious. I'd suggest that you call the middle school office and leave a message for each of her teachers asking them to contact you. Leave both your phone number and email address. This will hopefully eliminate any embarrassment that she might feel at having her mom at school talking to her teachers as if she were still in elementary school. Make sure to ask each teacher about policies and procedures for making up missed work and if assignments are posted online.
