BOOGIE NIGHTS
A Film Review by Brian Takeshita
Rating: *** out of ****
It is hard to imagine today, but in the late 1970's, porno movies were actually a lot like regular movies. They were shot on film and shown in theaters. Marquees and posters advertised the latest X-rated flicks in blatant view of motorists on the street. You actually bought a ticket from the guy at the box office, and walked into the theater. The problem was, you might have been seen doing so. In the early 80's, the adult film industry made a profound change. Most movies were shot on video with minuscule budgets, mass produced, and marketed through mail order. While losing the "artistic" quality of larger productions, the increased anonymity afforded by mail order resulted in a huge growth in sales. After all, the only one who might have known you were watching these tapes would have been your mailman. Today, the adult industry is booming like never before, even keeping up with the latest trends in technology; films are now available on CD-ROM and even DVD.
BOOGIE NIGHTS starts out in the earlier era of adult entertainment, when the filmmakers counted on star power to get viewers into the theater seats. "Exotic" film director Jack Horner (Burt Reynolds) notices a young dishwasher named Eddie Adams (Mark Wahlberg) in a nightclub and offers him a career in X-rated movies. Eddie has dropped out of school and faces continual verbal abuse from his mother at home, and so one evening, after his mother (Joanna Gleason) crosses the last line, the seventeen year old Eddie runs away, ending up at Jack Horner's house. To Eddie, Jack's offer is his ticket out of his little life and into one of stardom.
We meet a lot of colorful characters in the business. First there is Amber Waves (Julianne Moore), a porn queen who lives with Jack, but under apparently platonic circumstances. There's also a high school dropout-turned porn starlet who goes by the name "Rollergirl" (Heather Graham) because she never takes off her rollerskates, even while...ahem...acting.  He wears country-western outfits on the job and uses music to match when selling stereos, prompting the store manager to ask, "What kind of brother are you?" Another one of the male talents is Reed Rotchild (John C. Reilly), who's so insecure about himself that the first question he asks Eddie is, "You work out?"  Scotty (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) is a set hand who is decidedly more attracted to the male actors than the female ones. Finally, sitting behind it all is a man called "The Colonel" (Robert Ridgely) who puts up the money to produce Jack's movies.
With such a cast of characters, there are a lot of possibilities for some great scenes, and the viewer is not disappointed. Take for example, a scene at a party where Little Bill sees a group of people gathered around in a circle.  Little Bill demands to know what's going on, to which his wife responds with, "Bill, you're embarrassing me!" Another great one is when Eddie meets Reed, and each wants to find out how much the other benches at the gym. Just so one doesn't make up a figure higher than the other's, they agree to say their bench weights at the same time, "on three." They count to three and there's silence. Then Eddie says, "You didn't say anything."
Some of the scenes involving the shooting of a porn film may seem preposterous to the unindoctrinated, but director Paul Thomas Anderson makes no apologies. To his credit, the scenes are treated almost with the factual nature of a documentary, and very few attempts are made at colorizing the proceedings for the purpose of eliciting a laugh. The result is a surprisingly evenhanded representation of the filmmaking process, with laughs naturally occurring at actions which seem ridiculous to most, but which are simply another day's work for adult entertainment employees.
Anderson does a good job at presenting us with a film about journeys. We witness each character as he or she changes with the times or has the times run over them. Not one character is the same at the end of the movie, and that is something very satisfying. We even get to see the journey made by the industry itself, in it's move from film to mass marketed video. In a great scene, Horner is taping in the back of a limousine, saying they are "about to make film history....right here on videotape." Of all the journeys made, the most compelling is Eddie's, who we see progress from dishwasher to pornstar "Dirk Diggler" (the persona he assumes), his displacement from the industry, and his decent into drugs and crime. Wahlberg, perhaps still more widely known as a rapper than an actor, comes through with a great performance. I look forward to what he will do in the future.
The real joy of this movie, however, is watching Burt Reynolds. There has been much talk about the Jack Horner role being his comeback performance, and I do not doubt the truth to this. Over the last number of years, Reynolds has been playing mostly comical, tongue-in-cheek type roles which shied away from the kinds of characters he played in the past. Although he has been quite amusing in some of these cases, this has caused the public to in a way forget that he is capable of really putting forth as a good actor. Reynolds is sincere, and plays Horner without the indulgence in which another, less experienced actor might be tempted to engage. It definitely pays off.
There are only a few problems with BOOGIE NIGHTS, and only one that really bothers me. One of the major plot points is that Dirk Diggler was easily replaced by up and coming talent. This is one thing that the movie got wrong, as it is the women who are in constant danger of being the flavor of the month. Males have a much better chance of staying in for the long haul, often remaining in the business for a decade or more. The good thing is, if you didn't know this until now (and I'm sure most people don't), it won't detract one iota from enjoyment of the film. Make no mistake; there is a great deal of explicit language being tossed about, but most of the obscenities are the words themselves. Although there is a lot of sex going on, it is tastefully shot and often more alluded to than anything else. It would be a shame if the subject matter dissuades you from taking in this great film.

Labor Day weekend was lots of fun. Grandma Connie and Grandpa Morris stopped by for a visit. The big hole in our front yard got filled in with lots of dirt (a process involving dump trucks and backhoes). And Shane went to a party and got to splash in a very big puddle.
Shane got to meet his baby sister Maya. Shane checked her feet to see if she was wearing any shoes. No shoes, but Shane found big toes and little toes!
Shane was very excited when Maya and Mom came home from the hospital. With all his grandparents there too he was really bouncing off the walls. He helped Dad and Grandpa Morris clean up the big tree branch that fell in our backyard during Hurricane Isabel.
Shane is curious about Maya but doesn't want to get too close. Mom signed him up for lots of classes to help get some of the ants out of his pants. He goes to gym class, yoga class, music class, and story time at the library. Shane's friend Mira has a new baby brother named Nathan who is one week younger than Maya. Shane went to the playground with Mira after Nathan's bris.

Hi everyone
I have pieced together a python script, from various sources, for loading DS18B20 sensors and reading temperatures directly from pin 4 on a Raspberry Pi. So long so good, but i am having problems forwarding the data to emoncms.
The url seems to be setup correctly and i have used the same way for URL-requests as here: https://github.com/emoncms/raspberrypi/blob/master/rfm2pigateway.py
None the less nothing is being updated in the database one the raspberry.
Output:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ python sensorRead.py
http://localhost/emoncms/input/post?json={28-000003f1cbe0:2256,28-0000040cd9ec:2256,28-000003f1d3c3:2262}
http://localhost/emoncms/input/post?json={28-000003f1cbe0:2262,28-0000040cd9ec:2256,28-000003f1d3c3:2262}
The script:
import os
import glob
import time
import urllib2, httplib
os.system('sudo modprobe w1-gpio')
os.system('sudo modprobe w1-therm')
base_dir = '/sys/bus/w1/devices'
f = open(base_dir + '/w1_bus_master1/w1_master_slave_count', 'r');
sensorCount = f.readlines()
sensorCount = [int(l[0]) for l in sensorCount]
f.close()
f = open(base_dir + '/w1_bus_master1/w1_master_slaves', 'r');
devices = f.readlines()
f.close()
def read_temp_raw(sensor):
device_file = base_dir + '/' + devices[sensor][:-1] + '/w1_slave'
f = open(device_file, 'r')
lines = f.readlines()
f.close()
return lines
def read_temp(sensor):
lines = read_temp_raw(sensor)
while lines[0].strip()[-3:] != 'YES':
time.sleep(0.2)
lines = read_temp_raw(sensor)
equals_pos = lines[1].find('t=')
if equals_pos != -1:
temp_string = lines[1][equals_pos+2:]
return temp_string[0:4]
while True:
url = "http://localhost/emoncms/input/post?json={"
for x in range(0, sensorCount[0]):
url = url + devices[x][:-1] + ":" + read_temp(x) + ","
url = url[:-1]+"}"
print(url)
urllib2.urlopen(url)
time.sleep(10)
Does anybody have a clue on what is going wrong?
Kind regards,
Emil Bunk
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Hi.
Glad to have another pythonist here.
You can test your URLs aside the python script with wget or a browser such as links.
I'm wondering if this is not an apikey issue. Try this:
- http://localhost/emoncms/input/post?json={28-000003f1cbe0:2256,28-0000040cd9ec:2256,28-000003f1d3c3:2262}
+http://localhost/emoncms/input/post?json={28-000003f1cbe0:2256,28-0000040cd9ec:2256,28-000003f1d3c3:2262}&apikey=your_read_write_apikey
Re: push data to emoncms with python
I'd like to say you can import rfm2pigateway.py, then instantiate class ServerDataBuffer.
Instantiation :
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Fix commited and pull request sent:
https://github.com/emoncms/raspberrypi/pull/26
With this commit, you can try to import rfm2pigateway and use the ServerDataBuffer class in your script.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Pythonist, don't know if i would call myself that. This is my first pythonscript, it just seemed like the easy way to access the sensors (red. somebody else wrote the most of the script)
I tried out the URL and it works fine if i run it with a browser. I thought about the api-key too, but it seemed like a overkill to access the database, just to retrieve the api-key. But i will try it out and see if i have more luck :)
Thanks for the quick response
Re: push data to emoncms with python
You're welcome.
You don't have to access the database to get the key.
You can hardcode it, obviously...
Or you can use the new API from emonCMS v5, just like I did in the python script. See function get_settings().
Accessing the DB would mean hardcoding DB login parameters in the script. Not much better than hardcoding the apikey itself. I'm using the csv module because sometimes separating stuff with special characters could be a little tricky.
Regarding the format to send data, I suppose you saw the API help link in the Input menu.
The ServerDataBuffer class I wrote uses the "bulk mode" which means you can't add names to the inputs. It may be a good idea to use the json format where names can be added but it might not be that simple, since I'm not sure this method allows to send samples with different times.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Make sense and that would be an obvious reason to avoid using the API-key, so no hardcoding was needed. Don't we agree that the rfm2pigateway, uses the same way to request/visit the URL as i have tried? with the only difference being; not including the api-key.
I have also tried this methode: https://github.com/openenergymonitor/EmoncmsPythonLink/blob/master/pylink.py
again no luck.
About the input names, i wanted to add the sensor address as names because they are unique, which will make locating the sensors way easier, if one is reading something out of range. I plan on marking every sensor with its address. (The system i am working on is to be used in vaccine cold room facilities and therefore it should be possible to add and remove sensors as needed)
There is no need to send samples with different time stamps, so that should not be a problem.
I will try out your method later today.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
I'm not sure I understand your first paragraph.
I believe adding the hardcoded apikey works for you, right ?
You can take inspiration in rfm2pigateway for the part where you get the settings (including the apikey) through the API if you don't want it hardcoded.
I now realize it is a bit weird that you need the apikey to post locally, but you can get it for free with a local post through the API. In short, why not authorize a local post without the apikey in the first place ? Historical reasons, I guess.
rfm2pigateway does not use the same syntax as yours to send data samples. See here: http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/2249. I think you understood that
You'd rather stick to your way as it makes sense to have names for the inputs and you don't do sample buffering. This means you can't use the ServerDataBuffer class as I wanted to suggest you. No big deal, recreating the URL string isn't so difficult. I just like reusable code and I'd like to address this.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
I'm sorry if i have not made myself clear. Im still quite new to; python, emoncms and all that follows :)
To make things clear:
I have not tried with a hardcoded api yet. But it does work without the api-key through a browser, so if i request:
http://localhost/emoncms/input/post?json={28-000003f1cbe0:2256,28-0000040cd9ec:2256,28-000003f1d3c3:2262}
in the browser on the raspberry, it does make 3 inputs, with the 3 addresses as names and the matching readings, which is what i need.
But the urllib2.open(URL) however does nothing.
urllib2.urlopen(http://localhost/emoncms/input/post?json={28-000003f1cbe0:2256,28-0000040cd9ec:2256,28-000003f1d3c3:2262})
And i two want reusable code, that was why i wanted to avoid the api-key altogether.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
I believe you need to add the apikey to post from a browser, unless you're logged in the emoncms interface with the same browser.
Are you saying you can post from your browser without the apikey and without being logged in ? Is this a browser on the Pi ?
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Of course! didn't think about the login at all, i was logged in when i tried the link. Okay, this should be fixed by adding the API-key, but as we talk about before it would be nice that the script worked without hardcoding an API-key. So is it possible to pull the api?
Thanks again for all your help! :)
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Yes, it is possible. It is what I do in the python script.
You can take inspiration in rfm2pigateway for the part where you get the settings (including the apikey) through the API if you don't want it hardcoded. See function get_settings().
I hope the comments make it clear enough. I'm not a much experienced pythonist myself, I don't use those cryptical one-line-does-it-all instructions, my code is rather step-by-step styled.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
i think i got the part that i need, however it seems like the get_settings() fails.
This is what i use to get the api:
def get_api():
result = urllib2.urlopen("http://localhost/emoncms/raspberrypi/get.json")
result = result.readline()
result = result[1:-1].split(',')
settings = {}
for s in result:
s = csv.reader([s], delimiter=':').next()
settings[s[0]] = s[1].replace("\\","")
return settings['apikey']
with following error:
settings[s[0]] = s[1].replace("\\","")
IndexError: list index out of range
I will admit that i haven't looked into how it works entirely, but in my understanding this should be sufficient for pulling the api.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
I'm still having problems with pulling the api and it will also crash if you remove a sensor. But side from that, everything is working!
Thanks alot for your help Jerome
Re: push data to emoncms with python
You're welcome.
Try this an see what happens:
You get the point.
If this doesn't help. Use the python interpreter, do the imports, and then
To see what is returned. There should be only one line, with the settings.
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Hi Jerome,
It returns nothing, the result is empty. ? Im alittle confused, the path emoncms/raspberrypi/ does not exist, shouldn't it be under /var/www/emoncms/raspberrypi?
Re: push data to emoncms with python
When logged on my rasp, if I issue
I get a file with the following content:
{"userid":"1","apikey":"my_apikey","sgroup":"210",... and all my settings}
I can launch a python interpreter and execute the following commands:
and I get the same result.
Don't you ?
Re: push data to emoncms with python
I am still getting nothing :/

Re: push data to emoncms with python
I didn't answer your question. No, you don't need it to be under /var/www/emoncms/raspberrypi. It's a rewrite rule. emoncms/whater goes into emoncms/Modules/whatever. Roughly speaking.
You did install the raspberrypi module, right ?
I don't see why you would have http://localhost/emoncms/input/post working, but not http://localhost/emoncms/raspberrypi/get.json
Perhaps could you have a look in the apache log ?
/var/log/apache2/error.log
Re: push data to emoncms with python
Something was definitely wrong with the RPi module. None of the init scripts were there. I didn't do the installation of emoncms myself. I believe my supervisor has been messing around with things. I have made a new SD card from scratch and things seems to work now.
Thanks a lot,
Jerome :)
I will post the script for mounting multiple DS18B20 sensors on the Pi, when I have fixed a few bugs.


Kanye West's first visit in Houston this weekend: Jail
by KTRKHOUSTON, Texas -- Kanye West is already in Houston before his Lakewood Church visit, and one of his stops on Friday is jail.
The rap icon-turned-gospel musician visited inmates at the Harris County Jail, the county's sheriff's office said.
West and a choir performed for the inmates.
The "Jesus Walks" rapper is scheduled to meet with Pastor Joel Osteen and his Lakewood Church congregation on Sunday.
West is expected to appear for the Lakewood service at 11 a.m. for a conversation. Later that night at 7 p.m., West is holding his "Sunday Service" performance inside the church.

I'll continue projects of Akufo-Addo if am voted into power in 2020 - Mahama promises
Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress, NDC John Mahama has emphasized his commitment to continue and complete projects started by the Akufo-Addo government if he wins the 2020 elections.
According to him, it is wasteful for administrations to abandon projects started by predecessor government.
Speaking at the maiden edition of the Young African Leaders Summit in Accra today, Mr Mahama reiterated that he will continue to complete projects of Akufo Addo
“We will continue because our taxpayers’ money has been put into those projects and policies, and so we will continue with them. And we will introduce ours too in addition to what we will come and continue. And I think that is how it should be for every government.”
The comment comes on the back of his complaint that the Akufo-Addo government has abandoned projects started by his administration.
Speaking during his campaign tour of the Northern Region in October last year, Mahama described the situation as unfortunate.
"It is a pity because everything that we started has come to a standstill. I go round the country and most of the roads, where we left them on 7th January 2017, that is where the roads have ended. All the community based Secondary Schools, where we left them on 7th January 2017, that is where they have ended.”
“And the tragedy is if you ask the New Patriotic Party (NPP) what are they doing about the road they will say free SHS. If you ask about the CHPS compound, they will say we have given you free SHS when you ask about jobs, they will say we have given you free SHS,” he said.

Twitter says UK PM's party misled public with 'factcheck' account
Repeat of name change stunt by ruling Conservative Party will draw 'decisive corrective action', Twitter warns.
Twitter has said British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's ruling Conservative Party misled the public by altering the name of one of its accounts on the social media platform to mimic a fact-checking service during a televised election debate.
The Conservative Campaign Headquarters press office's account, followed by nearly 76,000 Twitter users, changed its name to "factcheckUK" from its usual "CCHQPress" and switched its avatar to a white tick against a purple background.
More:
It made the change on Tuesday while Johnson was debating Jeremy Corbyn, leader of the main opposition Labour Party, on live television weeks before the United Kingdom's December 12 election. The rebranded account tweeted graphics supporting statements from Johnson as "True" and criticised others from Corbyn.
Twitter said it would take "decisive corrective action" if a similar stunt was attempted again, the BBC reported on Wednesday.
"Twitter is committed to facilitating healthy debate throughout the UK general election," a spokesperson for the social media giant was quoted as saying.
"We have global rules in place that prohibit behaviour that can mislead people, including those with verified accounts. Any further attempts to mislead people by editing verified profile information - in a manner seen during the UK Election Debate - will result in decisive corrective action."
Full Fact, a genuine fact-checking charity, criticised the Conservatives' move.
"It is inappropriate and misleading for the Conservative press office to rename their Twitter account 'factcheckUK' during this debate. Please do not mistake it for an independent fact checking service," it said.
Labour meanwhile blasted the name-changing as a "scam", saying that it showed the Conservatives could not be trusted in government.
Conservative Party Chairman James Cleverly defended the move, however. "We made it absolutely clear it is a Conservative Party website ... checking the claims" of Corbyn, he said.
The account description during the debate was "Fact Checking Labour from CCHQ". After the debate finished, the account reverted to its regular Conservative Party branding.
Prior to the controversy, Twitter had pledged to make it easier to report misleading information about the voting process in the upcoming election.
The company said last month it would stop all political advertising, making the poll one of the first major tests for the new policy.


WASHINGTON, D.C.
The House has passed a short-term spending bill that keeps the government
running for six weeks and buys time for future budget negotiations. The 352-66 vote sends
the measure to President Barack Obama
in time to avert a government shutdown at midnight.
The legislation gives Congress and the White House more time to iron out their differences
on a pile of unfinished budget work totaling more than $1 trillion. It also ends a fight
over whether some aid for victims of Hurricane Irene and other natural disasters should
have been offset by cuts elsewhere.
CUPERTINO, California
It's the first time in years that Apple has unveiled a major new product
without Steve Jobs presiding over
the announcement. The company's new CEO, Tim Cook, was the one introducing the company's new iPhone
today -- faster and more powerful than the previous version. Cook took over as CEO after Jobs,
who has been battling health problems, resigned in August.

Introduction
The joy of giving birth and bringing a new life into the world cannot be expressed in words. Unfortunately, this joy is short-lived for some of us. Infant mortality is one of those preventable problems that is still not completely prevented. While a lot of good people are working towards solving this and saving lives, I wanted to start doing my bit with the help of some tools I have recently learnt to approach social issues from the data analytics side. So I spent this weekend making these correlations and visualizations to analyse infant mortality in India. Hope this post helps broaden/deepen your understanding of this problem. So lets get into it and see how some of the factors correlate with this problem.
Infant mortality in India
India has seen a consistent decrease in infant mortality rate over the last two and half decades. India's overall IMR (Infant mortality rate) declined by 70% from 139 deaths per 1000 births to 42 deaths per 1000 births. While infant mortality rates are showing a declining trend and have dropped across states over the years, there still remains a lot of variability across the states. For instance, in 2012, the IMR in Kerala was nearly 5 times lower than that of Madhya Pradesh.
There are many factors that can influence IMR. Let's look at some of the 'obvious' looking factors and analyse the correlation. Here are the factors that are analysed in this post:
- Literacy: if more people are educated, more people will deal with pregnancy and child birth in better ways
- Urban vs Rural: one would expect that urban regions must be much much better than rural regions, lets look into this
- Types of IMR: lets look at types of IMR and still births
- Maternal mortality: comparing IMR and maternal mortality
- Institutional deliveries: how much of an impact do institutional deliveries have?
- More socioeconomic factors: a general exploratory comparison of some more socioeconomic factors
Literacy
One of the important factors that seems to be well correlated with IMR is literacy rate. The hypothesis behind this is simple -- if more people are educated, more people will deal with pregnancy in a better way. The following visualization is a bubble motion chart that indicates the correlation between IMR and literacy rate. (side note: you should watch this TED talk by Hans Rosling. That's where I got the inspiration for this visualization.)
How this visualization works:
- You can scroll through years by scrolling on the year (just hover your mouse over the year in the chart and move it a bit to see how this works)
- Each bubble represents an entity, in this case each bubble is a state
- The size of the bubbles is proportional to the population of the respective states
- States are also grouped by region (Northern, Southern, Eastern, Western and Northeastern)
- Click the replay animation button to restart the animation
Correlating infant mortality and literacy rate
As we can see in the motion chart, there seems to be a strong correlation between literacy rate and IMR. The correlation coefficient, or commonly known as the R value comes out to a decent -0.71, indicating a negative correlation as expected.
How do rural regions compare against urban regions?
Lets now look at what types of infant mortality cases are seen in rural vs urban areas. For this, we have a pretty interactive sunburst visualization, that lets you zoom in and out to analyse each data sector. Go ahead and play with it to see how rural and urban regions compare.
How the sunburst visualization works:
- Data is segregated into multiple layers, rural vs. urban, by state, year, and type of infant mortality
- Hover on any sector to see what it indicates
- You can see more granular data for any sector by clicking on it
- Click the reset zoom level button to go back to the starting position
Urban vs Rural and comparing infant mortality types
The infant mortality rates in rural areas are almost twice as high as urban areas. Moreover, the number of cases of infant mortality in early neonatal period (0-7 days of birth) is very high in rural areas.
Maternal mortality
A lot of unfortunate infant mortalities may be attributed to the delivery procedure and conditions surrounding that delicate phase. In order to look into this, lets compare infant mortality and maternal mortality across states and over time.
To add to it, lets also look at the literacy rates to explore this further. Here're some pointers on the visualization:
- Each bubble represents a state, and size indicates population
- Color indicates literacy rate ranging from yellow (45% literacy rate ) to red (95% literacy rate )
Infant mortality vs. maternal mortality (along with literacy rate)
Although maternal mortality data is available only for a few years, for the data that we have, we see a very strong correlation between infant mortality and maternal mortality with a correlation coefficient, or R value of 0.93. Also, the relation between literacy rate and both IMR/MMR is clearly visible.
Institutional deliveries
Lets now compare institutional deliveries and IMR across states and over multiple years. We'll use a scatter plot for this purpose. Here's some information on the plot:
- the x-axis shows percentage of institutional deliveries
- size of the point in the plot is proportional to literacy rate in the region
- colors indicate different years
- you can show/hide certain years by clicking on the small circle next to the year (top right legend)
- the lines are representatives of the trends for respective years
Incidence of infant mortality in institutional deliveries vs non-institutional deliveries
As expected, there is a negative between institutional deliveries and IMR, however, the correlation values are pretty low ranging from 0.4 to 0.47 for all the years. This surprised me a little, because I thought that institutional deliveries should have far lesser incidences of infant mortality than non-institutional ones. Let's explore some more socioeconomic indicators in the next section.
Other socioeconomic factors
We explored some of the obvious factors that can affect IMR. Let us now look at how some other socioeconomic factors correlate with IMR. We'll compare states by population density, sex ratio, gender gap in literacy, households with latrines and safe drinking water. We'll use another interactive visualization for this -- a parallel co-ordinates graph. Go ahead and play with it to see how states compare on these factors.
Interacting with the visualization:
- Each line represents a state, hover over any line to see details
- There are many factors, but you can selectively turn on or off certain factors
- The thick blue line represents country level metrics and can be used as a reference for comparison
Comparing states on various socioeconomic factors
Clearly, there's a lot of variation in the socioeconomic factors. I had a good time comparing states and figuring out various correlations. Among all these, the one that correlates the best with infant mortality rates is % of households with latrines! The R value for the correlation is 0.69. This is followed by % gender gap in literacy (R value 0.52). Surprisingly, population density and safe drinking water have weak or no correlation with IMR.
Conclusion
Although the analysis does shed some light on how IMR correlates with different factors, this is just a simple correlation analysis without digging into the problem deeper. It'd be interesting to figure out which of the factors are causal and what is the cause-effect relation.
I was definitely surprised by the strong correlation of latrines and IMR. Maybe they are connected? We'll need to look into it some more to figure out the connection. Lets pick it up some other time.
Thanks to Sagar for reading drafts of this. A huge thanks to the Indian government for making so much data publicly available. Needless to say this post would have taken weeks/months without the work that the d3 community has put in. And without the nice folks at github, this post would be still on my computer.


LJLUtils – Little Java Library Utilites by Pablo Klaschka
A GitHub Repositorie's website
What it is:
LJLutils is a Java Class Library that is supposed to help developers develop faster by having methods for often needed functions. An example for that would be visualizing tree-structures in the console by automatically indenting them. It will be continually extended as there are more things developed by the author which he thinks are worth putting into this library.
Topics already adressed by this library:
- Console Printing
- Physics and Vector Calculations (WIP)
- Error Messages and Management
Instructions
You can find the instructions on how to use this library on the project's Github page (and especially the Wiki).Features
Error-Management
Dealing with errors was never easier…
The ErrorManager
allows for easy handling of costom errors and their displaying to the user. One of the biggest features is the automatic handling of errorcodes and -messages as well as displaying different informations to the developer and the end user. This makes dealing with many error messages much simpler, as getRegisteredErrorsList()
easily gives you an easy list with all your error codes explained for the current version.
New Console printing experience
With our Console and ConsoleObserver-Classes, you will have a better and more useful console experience in no time! Especially, if you want to visualize data in the console, the automatic indention will help you debugging faster with ease.
3D-Vector calculations made easy
As a basis for our physics simulation classes, we had to have the possibility of simple positional and vectorial values. Inspired by the way the Unity Game Engine handles that, we've implemented a Vector system for all Java-Versions…
Physical calculations made easy (WIP)
With our physics simulation package, we provide a simple timestep-based physics simulation unit for your Java applications. The main goal for this part of the library was to provide an easily customizable & extendable physics simulation unit to fit your needs.
You have found a bug or have a question?
Then feel free to submit an issue on Github, I will try to help you as good as I can.

toxic items in our homes hide chemicals that society has accepted as a normal part of products. with this normalization, the effect these chemicals have on our health is hidden. in order to start making the switch to non-toxic living, it's important to understand some of the main chemicals in our day-to-day products and how they effect us.
the first ingredient to recognize often shows up on the back of a label as "fragrance." the ingredient "fragrance" has become a loophole in regulations, which allows companies to label anything that helps with scent "fragrance". this means that untested chemicals can be masked, allowing for up to hundreds of chemicals to be hidden by a single word. synthetic frangrance can cause allergic reactions, disruptions to natural hormones, respiratory triggers, migraines and so much more. right off the bat, avoid any product that has "fragrance" listed as an ingredient.
let's talk about other popular ingredients in products:
1. parabens: known to disrupt the endocrine system, compromising hormones, the thyroid, reproduction and metabolism health and more
2. sodium lauryl sulfate (sls): what makes products foam, known to cause skin irritation
3. teflon: a non-stick coating found on kitchen items, can cause a variety of health conditions
other words to avoid: aluminium, pesticides, gmo's, triclosan, formaldehyde and hydroquinone
you hear that these ingredients are bad for you, and that the product industry is corrupted. but why is it important to recognize this and make a change? first off, our skin is the biggest organ. what we surround ourselves with is what our body becomes. many ingredients that make up products are unregulated, and therefore can cause a variety of issues. by creating a healthier home and space for ourselves, many have found that long lasting health issues disappear and overall quality of life is improved.
falling for greenwashing is the biggest mistake one makes when transitioning to non-toxic living. greenwashing is when a brand claims that their products are clean, natural or environmentally friendly when in reality they are not. they mislead consumers by labeling certain items as green, when their sourcing and ingredients say otherwise. this transitions into buying clean products, as many companies now claim that their products are organic and clean when they are not, tricking people into buying the products. in order to avoid the greenwashing by many popular brands, it's important to read the ingredients on the back of products to determine if they truly are toxic-free.
the number one things i can say is don't trust everything you read. misinformation runs rampant, especially when it comes to clean living, so it's always important to double check your sources. don't just believe me, read about the topic for yourself, make choices that are right for you and find empowerment in learning the information for yourself. i encourage constant learning and growth as you step into this process!

combined-stream
A stream that emits multiple other streams one after another.
Installation
npm install combined-stream
Usage
Here is a simple example that shows how you can use combined-stream to combine two files into one:
var CombinedStream = require('combined-stream');
var fs = require('fs');
var combinedStream = CombinedStream.create();
combinedStream.append(fs.createReadStream('file1.txt'));
combinedStream.append(fs.createReadStream('file2.txt'));
combinedStream.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('combined.txt'));
While the example above works great, it will pause all source streams until
they are needed. If you don't want that to happen, you can set pauseStreams
to false
:
var CombinedStream = require('combined-stream');
var fs = require('fs');
var combinedStream = CombinedStream.create({pauseStreams: false});
combinedStream.append(fs.createReadStream('file1.txt'));
combinedStream.append(fs.createReadStream('file2.txt'));
combinedStream.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('combined.txt'));
However, what if you don't have all the source streams yet, or you don't want
to allocate the resources (file descriptors, memory, etc.) for them right away?
Well, in that case you can simply provide a callback that supplies the stream
by calling a next()
function:
var CombinedStream = require('combined-stream');
var fs = require('fs');
var combinedStream = CombinedStream.create();
combinedStream.append(function(next) {
next(fs.createReadStream('file1.txt'));
});
combinedStream.append(function(next) {
next(fs.createReadStream('file2.txt'));
});
combinedStream.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('combined.txt'));
API
CombinedStream.create([options])
Returns a new combined stream object. Available options are:
maxDataSize
pauseStreams
The effect of those options is described below.
combinedStream.pauseStreams = true
Whether to apply back pressure to the underlaying streams. If set to false
,
the underlaying streams will never be paused. If set to true
, the
underlaying streams will be paused right after being appended, as well as when
delayedStream.pipe()
wants to throttle.
combinedStream.maxDataSize = 2 * 1024 * 1024
The maximum amount of bytes (or characters) to buffer for all source streams.
If this value is exceeded, combinedStream
emits an 'error'
event.
combinedStream.dataSize = 0
The amount of bytes (or characters) currently buffered by combinedStream
.
combinedStream.append(stream)
Appends the given stream
to the combinedStream object. If pauseStreams
is
set to `true, this stream will also be paused right away.
streams
can also be a function that takes one parameter called next
. next
is a function that must be invoked in order to provide the next
stream, see
example above.
Regardless of how the stream
is appended, combined-stream always attaches an
'error'
listener to it, so you don't have to do that manually.
Special case: stream
can also be a String or Buffer.
combinedStream.write(data)
You should not call this, combinedStream
takes care of piping the appended
streams into itself for you.
combinedStream.resume()
Causes combinedStream
to start drain the streams it manages. The function is
idempotent, and also emits a 'resume'
event each time which usually goes to
the stream that is currently being drained.
combinedStream.pause();
If combinedStream.pauseStreams
is set to false
, this does nothing.
Otherwise a 'pause'
event is emitted, this goes to the stream that is
currently being drained, so you can use it to apply back pressure.
combinedStream.end();
Sets combinedStream.writable
to false, emits an 'end'
event, and removes
all streams from the queue.
combinedStream.destroy();
Same as combinedStream.end()
, except it emits a 'close'
event instead of
'end'
.

ELLA LONN "Desertion During the Civil War" is a short book -- a monograph, almost. Lonn's analysis of the "disease" takes into account both North and South, with side glances at the Napoleonic armies, Wellington's experience in Spain, the U.S. military before 1861, and the Franco-Prussian War. She takes pains to present the desertion problem as a practical one that plagued both sides in the war. Part of her thesis, now much-shaken by newer information, was that the South had a serious desertion problem for much of the war, and that it spiraled out of control in the last months. She wrote that the North seemed to get its own desertion problem under relative control about the same time -- largely by draconian measures. In her introduction, Lonn points out something that was clear to her:
"The reader will perforce be impressed with the parallelism which runs through the account of defection from the armies of the antagonists. But as the Confederacy was unable to frame a constitution which was other than a slight adaption of the old framework, so these two nations of one race and one heritage, developed the same problems during the war and evolved similar solutions." Among the issues she delves into are men who deserted and then returned to duty, either because they were forced back or because whatever business they had had to attend to at home had been taken care of. Her tables in the appendix list 12,071 men as deserters from Virginia's Confederate forces, and list 8,596 from the state as "returned to the armies." William Blair's "Virginia's Private War" [N.Y., Oxford University Press, 1998] concluded that soldiers left the army for all sorts of reasons, particularly during times of idleness, and many of them came back in time for campaigning. Just as every man who took a draft exemption wasn't voting against the Confederacy, every man marked as a deserter wasn't making a valid political decision about the Confederate cause. Among the Southern deserters, Lonn finds the usual classes who would have deserted from the North, too, had fate cast them on that side, to be dredged up by the nets of conscription or lured in by bounties. There were cowards, scoundrels, and ruffians who had enlisted only to escape some scrape at home. She also mentions foreigners "who knew little and cared less for the burning American question of State rights." Just as in the North, Meade would allude to the "worthless foreigners, who are daily deserting to the enemy." In Texas, the South tried to enlist Mexican immigrants, without much success. "Starting with no particular affection for American institutions, Northern or Southern, they early passed back over the Rio Grande to take part in the difficulties which soon beset their own land." They, too, turn up among the nameless thousands listed as CSA deserters. The United States had the same problem with its recruits in New Mexico. Lonn also identifies Northern-born men, who "were in most cases holders of considerable property or large traders for their communities. ... Many had gone into the far South recently, after 1850, so their ties were still mainly with the North and their traditions antislavery." They deserted as well. Hired "substitutes" for drafted men, as in the North, proved especially liable to desert. "One officer reports that four-fifths of his deserters were substitutes, who deserted within twenty-four hours of being received at his headquarters," Lonn writes. Many a Northern officer would have sympathized. Her conclusion is [p. 226] that one out of every seven men deserted from the Union Army, and one out of every nine men deserted from the Confederate army. But that, though the Union lost proportionately more to desertion, the South suffered more because of the initial difference in manpower. She feels the Union desertions helped prolong a war that the South was losing, because the news of them gave the South hope and allowed it to cling to a dream of eventual victory long after that was practically out of reach. In her conclusion, Lonn writes, "Both sides have just cause to be proud of the vast majority of the men engaged in the war between the States. Testimonies of their remarkable daring and coolness under fire, the dependence which could be placed upon them in emergencies, their obedience to orders in an engagement, the stoicism with which they endured the hardships incident to a difficult terrain and climate without murmur are legion and are taken for granted by the writer. Likewise the sustained enthusiasm and dogged determination of the majority of the civilian population to support the war, whether to win independence from an oppressive, centralized government or to sustain the integrity of the Union, need no comment or eulogy." Throughout Lonn's work, she compares and contrasts the Northern and Southern situations and solutions and finds many similarities and identities. Though she credits desertion as contributing to the South's failure to achieve independence, I see nothing in her work that would warrant a belief that the South's desertion problem was somehow a morally damning thing; that it was somehow of a different nature entirely from the North's (or from Napoleon's, or from that of any other army losing a war, which is a hard thing to do). Far more than execrating or justifying the Confederate cause, Lonn seems to be writing with an eye on her own time, in the wake of World War I, which brought up a great many of the ugly things in American democracy that we think only emerged during the Cold War. She alludes to it often, and seems intent on pointing out that the horrors of war -- any war -- are more worthy of note than the characters of men who desert from armies. The key paragraph of her introduction is this one:
"The writer ventures the hope that by turning a search-light on a question which could scarcely have found a tolerant reading a few decades ago, a few persons will, perchance, be led to a more tolerant view in discussing and pondering the problems of our recent World War on which passions are still inflamed. The truth is here, it is hoped, impartially presented. The writer, though by accident born in the North, has not felt the slightest impulse to minimize the desertion in the Union armies nor to exaggerate that in the Confederate forces. Her audience would be the first to condemn a partisan bias. The lovers of history should be the first to apply that tolerance to contemporary history."

SOFAStack™（Scalable Open Financial Architecture Stack）is a collection of middleware components designed to build financial-level distributed architecture and is also the best practice fully validated in financial scenarios.
Buildpack is fully open-source, keeps community neutral and is compatible with community. SOFAStack components are pluggable and compatible with the open-source ecosystem, so they can be integrated or replaced with other open-source components.
Contains the components needed to build a financial-level cloud native architecture, which have been fully tempered in large-scale scenarios, especially harsh financial scenarios, thus enabling developers to focus more on service development and meeting the current and future needs of user scenarios.
Based on SOFAStack, you can quickly build a cloud-native microservice system and develop cloud-native applications that are more reliable, scalable, and easier to maintain.
SOFAStack contains multiple components for building microservice system, including development framework, RPC framework, service registry, distributed link tracking, metrics monitoring, distributed transaction framework, service governance platform and other components. In combination with outstanding open-source products in community, you can quickly build a complete microservice system.
| Cloud Native Architecture | With the growth of business scale and system complexity, the traditional microservice management and operations becomes increasingly faster, and developers and operation personnel face multiple challenges. Some emerging concepts like Service Mesh and Serverless can resolve such problems. |
| Immutable Infrastructure | Immutable infrastructure is the practice of creating change through replacing rather than modifying. |
| Service Mesh | Service Mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer for handling service-to-service communication. |
| Declarative API | We declare the final state of the system and the system will continue to drive to that state. |
