It was a pretty nice day on spring break. I badly wanted to get high because I was having my first bored day on the break. I grabbed some cash and went to my friends house.  I knock the door and she answers the door. We'll call her S. I noticed S's pupils were slightly dimond shaped and I wondered what drugs she had been doing. I ask her if I put in $5 if she could just smoke me up. She agreed. I walked in her kitchen and there was 3 other guys there. I knew all of them so I felt comfortable in the situation.
I look over and S has a Sobe bottle, punctured with a hole at the bottom and a hole in the cap. She fills it with water while covering the hole, and screws on the cap with weed on it. She holds the lighter over the weed and takes her finger off the hole. The water slowly comes out and it creates a natural suction and burns the weed and holds the smoke in the bottle. The smoke is extremely white and condensed and I have known people passing out from only 3 of these, which about 1.5 grams maybe even less. I have done this a couple times so I go for it. She takes off the cap and I inhale. I accidentaly inhaled way too hard, and ingulfed all the smoke in roughly 2 seconds. I feel that bad hit, throat scorching feeling comming on and at this point I'm at the other side of the counter. I start to make my way back to the sink to drink some water and I notice that if I move to fast, I overwhelm my self and get really dizzy. So it took me quite a while to get to the sink.
I finally got water and closed my eyes and lay on a hammock. I started to feel better in my throat in head, and I think to myself 'Ok I can handle myself now.' and stand up. Everything around me is swaying from left to right. Wow! I think. I didn't even know weed could have such a strong visual effect as it did then. My ears started feeling really hot and I was convinced that they were on fire. I kept slapping them. Every breath I took I could feel the oxygen swirl around in my lungs. I then felt what can only be described as my brain bleeding. This kind of freaked me out because it actually felt like my brain was bleeding. I was walking around the house quite slowly grabbing on to furniture to help me move. I finally find my friends upstairs in a small washroom. I sit on the sink and just talk with them for about an hour.
After that we sat in a circle outside of the washroom and this is when it all started comming crashing down so, so hard. Two of my friends decided to trip me out and started talking about how they were gonna cut me up and sell my organs. I was a little scared for some reason even though I knew they wouldn't. I closed my eyes and I felt something poking me. I was convinced this was a knife and they actually were trying to cut me up. (it was a pencil) and I jumped up screaming. I started to feel uncomfortably dizzy and felt natious. I went into a dim room by myself and grabbed a plant pot and started throwing up in it. I couldn't believe it. 1 gram of weed and I was tripping like I did and ounce and 4 hits of e or something.
I noticed that everything looked like faces to me. Everything. I couldn't help but see faces in everything. It started to annoy me because I felt like I was being watched by all of them. So I decided to close my eyes. Bad Idea. I felt like I was spinning out of control and started throwing up again. Soon I became so dizzy that if I either moved at all, or closed my eyes, the whole room would be sucked into a warping spiral and I would start throwing up. So I had to kneel there, being careful not to move, being careful so I always focused on something. I then realized that I had to lay down to feel any better. I tried to slowly, slowly move my head towards the floor but I would get sick again.
After about half an hour of pain, finally, my entire body was on the ground and I was staring at the wall.  I had a bad trip from weed. It was baffling.

Apache Airflow (incubating) Documentation¶
Airflow is a platform to programmatically author, schedule and monitor workflows.
Use airflow to author workflows as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) of tasks. The airflow scheduler executes your tasks on an array of workers while following the specified dependencies. Rich command line utilities make performing complex surgeries on DAGs a snap. The rich user interface makes it easy to visualize pipelines running in production, monitor progress, and troubleshoot issues when needed.
When workflows are defined as code, they become more maintainable, versionable, testable, and collaborative.
Principles¶
- Dynamic: Airflow pipelines are configuration as code (Python), allowing for dynamic pipeline generation. This allows for writing code that instantiates pipelines dynamically.
- Extensible: Easily define your own operators, executors and extend the library so that it fits the level of abstraction that suits your environment.
- Elegant: Airflow pipelines are lean and explicit. Parameterizing your scripts is built into the core of Airflow using the powerful Jinja templating engine.
- Scalable: Airflow has a modular architecture and uses a message queue to orchestrate an arbitrary number of workers. Airflow is ready to scale to infinity.
Beyond the Horizon¶
Airflow is not a data streaming solution. Tasks do not move data from one to the other (though tasks can exchange metadata!). Airflow is not in the Spark Streaming or Storm space, it is more comparable to Oozie or Azkaban.
Workflows are expected to be mostly static or slowly changing. You can think of the structure of the tasks in your workflow as slightly more dynamic than a database structure would be. Airflow workflows are expected to look similar from a run to the next, this allows for clarity around unit of work and continuity.

JavaScriptMVC (JMVC) is a MIT licensed client-side JavaScript toolset that helps you build a maintainable, error-free, lightweight application in the shortest amount of time. It packages best-of-breed libraries and tools that are guaranteed (and tested) to work together. It supports every browser that jQuery supports.
JMVC's goodies are broken down into four sub-projects:
JavaScriptMVC is extremely modular. You can use each sub-project together or separately (via the download builder). This means that you can start small, using only $.Controller and add in parts of the framework as necessary.
If you are new to the framework, this page followed by the tutorials and Guides is the best place to start.
The remainder of this page highlights what is in each project. Click the the project links on the left for a more in-depth overview of each project.
jQueryMX is a collection of useful jQuery libraries that provide the missing functionality necessary to implement and organize large-scale jQuery applications. For example, it includes things like:
jQueryMX also puts the MVC in JavaScript with $.Model, $.View, and $.Controller. Models connect to your server over a RESTful JSON interface. Views are super-charged client side templates. Controllers prevent memory leaks with declarative event handling.
jQueryMX is very lightweight. It's MVC libraries combined (including their $.Class dependency) are 7kb minified and gzipped. Furthermore, you can use every part of jQueryMX independently of JavaScriptMVC and even independently of other parts of jQueryMX. For example, you can use $.Controller without $.Model.
StealJS is a "code manager" that keeps your code beautiful and organized while developing and FAST for users in production. Its collection of command-line and browser-based utilities enable you to:
StealJS is a stand-alone tool that can be used without the rest of JavaScriptMVC.
FuncUnit is a web application testing framework that provides automated unit and functional testing. Tests are written and debugged in the browser with FuncUnit's short, terse, jQuery-like API. The same tests can be instantly automated, run by Envjs or Selenium.
FuncUnit also supports extremely accurate event simulation on practically every browser and system.
DocumentJS provides powerful JavaScript documenting capabilities. This whole website is built with it! DocumentJS can document practically anything. It's extensible. And with Markdown support, it's easy to document your code.

My four year- old son is really aggressive when I take him on play dates. He pushes other kids down and takes toys from them without asking. Any suggestions?
Consistency is the key to good behavior. Every time you observe these aggressive actions stop what you’re doing and pull him out of the situation for a brief time out (five minutes away from his peers) while explaining what he did wrong.  Repeat as often as needed. It’s important for both parents and care givers to be completely consistent until the behaviors disappear.

For the prawns, pound the coriander and olive oil together in a pestle and mortar until the mixture is the consistency of pesto. Dip the prawns in the coriander to coat.
Unravel the pastry onto a flat, clean work surface. Cut the pastry into 12 equal pieces about 10cm/4in (keep the pastry pieces covered after you've cut them out to prevent them from drying out). Wrap the pastry pieces around the prawns.
Heat a deep fat fryer to 170C/325F/Gas 3, or until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns brown when dropped into it. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)
Deep fry the prawns in batches until golden-brown. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on kitchen paper and keep in a warm place until ready to serve.
For the salsa, combine all of the salsa ingredients. Leave to stand for about 15 minutes to let the flavours infuse before serving.
Serve the prawns with the salsa on the side.


Mwonzora car vandalised and nearly torched by Chamisa’s thugs
by Staff ReporterThe car of Douglas Mwonzora, the former secretary-general of the opposition MDC led by Nelson Chamisa was over the weekend vandalised in an alleged clash between party supporters aligned to Chamisa and those who support him.
Speaking to the Daily News on Sunday, Mwonzora confirmed the incident which occurred during and after the party’s National Executive Council (Nec) meeting. He said:
All I can tell you is that my car was damaged … I can refer you to the spokesperson of the party, Daniel Molokele.

This comes after Mwonzora declared that despite renewed efforts by party stalwarts to have him ejected from the party, he was going nowhere.
Mwonzora who revealed his ambition to lead the party before pulling out of the presidential race in the run-up towards the party’s Congress recently dared party members who want him dismissed to “try it” saying that he was not going anywhere.

| SUMMARY: NESTED | FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD | DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD |
java.lang.Object javax.microedition.io.PushRegistry
The PushRegistry
maintains a list of inbound
connections. An application can register the inbound
connections with an entry in the application descriptor file
or dynamically by calling the
registerConnection
method.
While an application is running, it is responsible for
all I/O operations associated with the inbound connection.
When the application is not running, the application
management software(AMS) listens for inbound notification
requests. When a notification arrives for a registered
MIDlet
, the AMS will start the MIDlet
via the normal invocation of MIDlet.startApp
method.
To avoid collisions on inbound generic connections, the application
descriptor file MUST include information about static connections
that are needed by the MIDlet
suite.
If all the static Push declarations in the application descriptor
can not be fulfilled during the installation, the user MUST be
notified that there are conflicts and the MIDlet suite MUST NOT be
installed. (See Over The Air User Initiated Provisioning
Specification section for errors reported in the event
of conflicts.)
Conditions
when the declarations can not be fulfilled include: syntax errors in
the Push attributes, declaration for a connection end point (e.g. port
number) that is already reserved in the device, declaration for a
protocol that is not supported for Push in the device, and declaration
referencing a MIDlet
class that is not listed in
the MIDlet-<n>
attributes of the same
application descriptor.
If the MIDlet
suite
can function meaningfully even if a Push registration can't be
fulfilled, it MUST register the Push connections using the dynamic
registration methods in the PushRegistry
.
A conflict-free installation reserves each requested connection for
the exclusive use of the
MIDlets
in the suite. While the suite is
installed, any attempt by other applications to open one of the
reserved connections will fail with an
IOException
. A call from a
MIDlet
to
Connector.open()
on a connection reserved for its suite will always
succeed, assuming the suite does not already have the connection open.
If two MIDlet
suites have a static push connection in
common, they cannot be installed together and both function
correctly. The end user would typically have to uninstall one before
being able to successfully install the other.
Each push registration entry contains the following information :
where :
MIDlet-Push-<n>: <ConnectionURL>,
<MIDletClassName>, <AllowedSender>
MIDlet-Push-<n>
=
the Push registration attribute name. Multiple push
registrations can be provided in a MIDlet
suite. The numeric value for <n> starts from 1 and
MUST use consecutive ordinal numbers for additional entries.
The first missing entry terminates the list. Any
additional entries are ignored.
ConnectionURL
=
the connection string used in Connector.open()
MIDletClassName
=
the MIDlet
that is responsible for the connection.
The named MIDlet
MUST be registered in the
descriptor file or the jar file manifest with a
MIDlet-<n>
record.
(This information is needed when displaying messages to
the user about the application when push connections are detected,
or when the user grants/revokes priveleges for the application.)
If the named MIDlet
appears more than once in the
suite, the first matching entry is used. AllowedSender
= a designated filter that restricts which
senders are valid for launching the requested MIDlet
.
The syntax and semantics of the AllowedSender
field
depend on the addressing format used for the protocol.
However, every syntax for this field MUST support using the wildcard
characters "*" and "?". The semantics of those wildcard are:
datagram
and
socket
URLs (if supported by the platform), this field
contains a numeric IP address in the same format for IPv4 and IPv6 as
used in the respective URLs (IPv6 address including the square
brackets as in the URL).
It is possible to use the wildcards also in these IP addresses,
e.g. "129.70.40.*" would allow subnet resolution. Note that the port
number is not part of the filter for datagram
and
socket
connections.
The MIDP 2.0 specification defines the syntax for
datagram
and socket
inbound
connections. When other specifications
define push semantics for additional connection types, they
must define the expected syntax for the filter field, as well as
the expected format for the connection URL string.
The following is a sample descriptor file entry that would reserve a stream socket at port 79 and a datagram connection at port 50000. (Port numbers are maintained by IANA and cover well-known, user-registered and dynamic port numbers) [See IANA Port Number Registry]
MIDlet-Push-1: socket://:79, com.sun.example.SampleChat, *
MIDlet-Push-2: datagram://:50000, com.sun.example.SampleChat, *
The requirements for buffering of messages are specific
to each protocol used for Push and are defined separately
for each protocol. There is no general requirement related
to buffering that would apply to all protocols. If the
implementation buffers messages, these messages MUST
be provided to the MIDlet
when the
MIDlet
is started and it opens the related
Connection
that it has registered for Push.
When datagram connections are supported with Push, the
implementation MUST guarantee that when a MIDlet
registered for datagram Push is started in response to an incoming
datagram, at least the datagram that caused the startup of the
MIDlet
is buffered by the implementation and will be
available to the MIDlet
when the MIDlet
opens the UDPDatagramConnection
after startup.
When socket connections are supported with Push, the
implementation MUST guarantee that when a MIDlet
registered for socket Push is started in response to
an incoming socket connection, this connection can
be accepted by the MIDlet
by opening the
ServerSocketConnection
after startup, provided
that the connection hasn't timed out meanwhile.
Not all generic connections will be appropriate for use
as push application transport. Even if a protocol is supported
on the device as an inbound connection type, it is not required
to be enabled as a valid push mechanism. e.g. a platform might
support server socket connections in a MIDlet
,
but might not support inbound socket connections for push
launch capability.
A ConnectionNotFoundException
is thrown from
the registerConnection
and from the
registerAlarm
methods, when the platform
does not support that optional capability.
Responsibility for registered push connections is shared between
the AMS and the MIDlet
that handles the I/O
operations on the inbound connection. To prevent any data
from being lost, an application is responsible for
all I/O operations on the connection from the time it calls
Connector.open()
until it calls Connection.close()
.
The AMS listens for inbound connection notifications. This MAY be handled via a native callback or polling mechanism looking for new inbound data. The AMS is responsible for enforcing the Security of PushRegistry and presenting notifications (if any) to the user before invoking the MIDlet suite.
The AMS is responsible for the shutdown of any running
applications (if necessary) prior to the invocation of
the push MIDlet
method.
After the AMS has started the push application, the
MIDlet
is responsible for opening the
connections and for all subsequent I/O operations.
An application that needs to perform blocking I/O
operations SHOULD use a separate thread to allow
for interactive user operations.
Once the application has been started and the connection
has been opened, the AMS is no longer responsible for
listening for push notifications for that connection.
The application is
responsible for reading all inbound data.
If an application has finished with all inbound data
it MAY close()
the connection.
If the connection is closed,
then neither the AMS nor the application
will be listening for push notifications. Inbound data
could be lost, if the application closes the connection
before all data has been received.
When the application is destroyed, the AMS resumes its responsiblity to watch for inbound connections.
 A well behaved application SHOULD inform the user that data has been processed. (While it is possible to write applications that do not use any user visible interfaces, this could lead to a confused end user experience to launch an application that only performs a background function.)
There are cases when defining a well known port registered
with IANA is not necessary.
Simple applications may just wish to exchange data using a private
protocol between a MIDlet
and server application.
To accomodate this type of application, a mechanism is provided
to dynamically allocate a connection and to register
that information, as if it was known, when the application was
installed. This information can then be sent to an agent on the network to
use as the mechanism to communicate with the registered
MIDlet
.
For instance, if a
UDPDatagramConnection
is opened and a port number,
was not specified, then the application is
requesting a dynamic port
to be allocated from the ports that are currently available. By
calling PushRegistry.registerConnection()
the
MIDlet
informs the AMS that it is the target for
inbound communication, even
after the MIDlet
has been destroyed (See
MIDlet
life cycle for
definition of "destroyed" state). If the application is deleted from the
phone, then its dynamic communication connections are unregistered
automatically.
During installation each MIDlet
that is expecting
inbound communication
on a well known address has the information recorded with the
AMS from the push registration attribute in the manifest or
application descriptor file. Once the installation has been
successfully completed,
(e.g. For the OTA recommended practices - when the Installation
notification message has been successfully transmitted, the
application is officially installed.)
the MIDlet
MAY then receive inbound communication.
e.g. the push notification event.
When the AMS is started, it checks the list of registered
connections and begins listening for inbound communication.
When a notification arrives the AMS starts the registered
MIDlet
.
The MIDlet
then opens
the connection with Connector.open()
method to
perform whatever I/O operations are needed for the particular
connection type. e.g. for a server socket the application
uses acceptAndOpen()
to get the socket connected
and for a datagram connection the application uses
receive()
to read the delivered message.
For message oriented transports the inbound message MAY be
read by the AMS and saved for delivery to the MIDlet
when it requests to read the data. For stream oriented transports
the connection MAY be lost if the connection is not
accepted before the server end of the connection request
timeouts.
When a MIDlet
is started in response to a registered
push connection notification, it is platform dependent what
happens to the current running application. The MIDlet
life cycle defines the expected behaviors that an interrupted
MIDlet
could see from a call to pauseApp()
or from destroyApp()
.
Usage scenario 1:
The suite includes a MIDlet
with a well
known port for communication.
During the startApp
processing
a thread is launched to handle the incoming data.
Using a separate thread is the recommended practice
for avoiding conflicts between blocking I/O operations
and the normal user interaction events. The
thread continues to receive messages until the
MIDlet
is destroyed.
In this sample, the descriptor file includes
a static push
connection registration. It also includes
an indication that this MIDlet
requires permission to use a datagram connection
for inbound push messages.
(See
Security of Push Functions in the package
overview for details about MIDlet
permissions.)
Note: this sample is appropriate for bursts of
datagrams.
It is written to loop on the connection, processing
received messages.

--- layout: newsstory title: STUFFED match: Cambridge 3 Yeltz 0 ---
Our long(ish) unbeaten run in the league came to an abrupt end with a 3-0 drubbing at Cambridge . A goal just before half-time, and two just after from the confusingly named Cambridge meant we've now slipped to a depressing 18th place in the table. Not a very Merry Xmas :-(
Boxing Day brings local rivals Worcester City to The Grove (3pm kickoff I believe) and then next Saturday (30th) we finish off a very disappointing year with a game at home to Ilkeston .
As I'm on holiday until after the New Year, the site might not be updated as regularly as usual , but I'll do my best to keep things reasonably recent. Anyhoo, have a jolly Xmas and New Year, and let's hope 2001 brings us better results that 2000 did. :-)
Cambridge City: Davies; Wooding, Skelly, Randall, Girling, Wenlock (Wilkin 60 (Salmons 75)), Nightingale, Tovey (Browne 77), Bramble, Cambridge, Wilde.
Halesowen Town: Quy; Corns, Ford, Wood, Lloyd, Collins, Crisp, Payne (Sutton 57), Bowen, Smith (Cartwright 55), Hines. Sub: Hackett
Booked: Corns (41), Bramble (56), Lloyd (58), Wood (67) Referee: M. Scholes (Buckingham) Attendance: 485
Halesowen failed to cope with a heavily sanded pitch and were well beaten with Ian Cambridge causing the damage for his namesake team.
A poor first half came to life on the half-hour when Adam Wilde finished a great run from midfield with a 15 yard shot that was saved by Andy Quy, with Phil Wood clearing for a corner. In a rare moment of danger for the home side Richard Crisp fired into the side netting in the 43rd minute when Stuart Payne's header left goalkeeper Martin Davies stranded out of his goal. However, within a minute Cambridge went ahead when giant striker Tesfaye Bramble turned two Halesowen defenders and crashed the ball into the net off the underside of the crossbar.
Cambridge controlled the second half and it no was surprise when they increased their lead after 55 minutes. Richard Crisp managed to clear a header from Steve Wenlock off his own goal line, but as his defence hesitated to clear, Ian Cambridge was able to convert from close range.
Quy made another fine blocking save from substitute Kevin Wilkin who broke clear in the 63rd minute but could only watch as dangerman Ian Cambridge then rattled the crossbar twice in five minutes with two identical 20 yard shots. Striker Cambridge turned home the third goal in the 70th minute from a left wing cross with the visiting defence torn apart.
In the dying minutes, Neil Cartwight's shot was saved by Davies and a Ross Collins effort was cleared off the line as Halesowen searched for a consolation.

[Article 1]: Exploring the intersection of IoT, AI and quantum computing
LAS VEGAS — Where do IoT, AI and Quantum Computing intersect? The short answer is that they meet where data is growing exponentially. The long answer is... well, it’s complicated. Last week, a panel at the Design Automation Conference (DAC) drilled deep into this difficult topic. Participating were the winners of the “2019 Under 40 Innovation Awards” — young engineers and researchers working on next-generation technologies. The panelists, all eager for the dawn of a new era in design automation, called upon the electronic design automation (EDA) industry for more sophisticated tools to help them advance the Internet of things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI) and even quantum computing. But given the slowdown of Moore’s Law, what more can design automation contribute to electronic design? How exactly does EDA connect with AI? Vijay Raghunathan, professor of electrical and computer engineering at Purdue University, explained: “One of the things EDA did for designs in general is to convert what was basically dark art [i.e. electronic design] into a very structured science.” Raghunathan continued: “If you talk to AI researchers today, you realize the design of these algorithms and neural networks is really a dark art. One of the most interesting things going forward is to see if EDA can bring the same level of rigorous structure to the design of neural networks and design of AI algorithms.” He added, “To me, that is one of the most interesting aspects that connects the world of EDA with the world of AI.”
2019 Under 40 Innovation Awards Panel at DACFrom left to right: Huichu Liu, a staff research scientist at Intel; Vijay Raghunathan, professor at Purdue Univ.; Robert Wille, professor at Johannes Kepler Univ.; Rasit Onur Topaloglu, senior hardware developer and program manager at IBM New-generation researchers also expect EDA tool vendors to jump into quantum computing — not in a few years, but today. Robert Wille, a professor at Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Austria, said, “Everybody knows about Moore’s Law and design gaps we’ve experienced in decades with conventional computing technology.” Despite the widespread belief that the era of quantum computing is still far away, Wille stressed: “It makes absolutely sense for the design automation industry to start developing efficient and sophisticated EDA tools for Quantum Computing -- right now.”
What is quantum computing for?
The panel, consisting of winners of this year’s Under-40 Innovation Awards, included Huichu Liu, a staff research scientist at Intel, Rasit Onur Topaloglu, senior hardware developer and program manager at IBM, Wille, and Raghunathan. Yunji Chen, professor at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, was another honoree, but couldn’t participate because he was not able to get a U.S. visa in time. Given their diverse backgrounds, the panel covered a lot of ground, touched on diverse topics that ranged from IoT to AI and quantum computing. For a layman, quantum computing is a mystery beyond solution. Asked why the world needs quantum computing, Wille said, “First, it’s important to understand that the quantum computer is not replacing the conventional computer we know.” Instead, he said, it will be one of the many computing technologies of the future. The tech world has high hopes for quantum computers, which show promises, for example, in accelerating the exploitation of huge search bases. Robert Wille“But the first killer app for quantum computing is what’s known as Shor’s algorithm — a quantum algorithm — developed years ago,” Wille explained. “The algorithm will help make factorization much more efficient. This is still considered as the holy grail of quantum computing, as [many believe] this will change the entire world [in theory].” But in reality, “This is still the furthest away.” In recent years, as big industry players such as IBM, Google and Microsoft Research jump into the fray, the quantum computing community is seeing the emergence of new commercial applications. For example, quantum computers can be used “for simulating climate change, solving optimization problems … or… quantum chemistry is a huge topic,” said Wille. So, although the quantum computer’s big goal of factorization is still far away, “We see today a variety of applications where [the use of] quantum computer may be beneficial,” said Wille.
Vijay RaghunathanAs promising as this prospect might sound, Purdue’s Raghunathan cautioned that there are big challenges in quantum computing. “From an outsider’s perspective, I see there is a class of very hard problems — computationally hard problems — where quantum computing holds a lot of promise.” Solving optimization problems is one, by computing in the exponential space, for example, Raghunathan. “But the challenge is, how do you really extract true benefits [of quantum computing] for a class of really wide-spread hard computational problems which seem to be all over the place?”
Infrastructure for quantum computing
Obviously, none of the young innovators expects the EDA industry to stand still. By stressing the need for automation tools for quantum computers, Wille said, “We need them to find out what’s possible to fabricate and what’s possible to design.” He said, “We need to be prepared for the day when quantum computing becomes scalable.” IBM’s Rasit Onur Topaloglu, another young innovation award winner, noted, “We also thought about this problem at IBM…we asked, when do we need automation tools to design quantum computing?”
Rasit Onur TopalogluHe said, “We’ve concluded that up until 200 qubits, maybe we can still do it manually.” He added, “I am not going to project when we will reach 200 qubits, but we already have an 80 qubits architecture.” Although there is at least a seven year-gap from academic research to a product, he concluded that the research for design automation tools for quantum computing needs to start today. “When the idea [of quantum computing] takes off, we need those tools in the industry right away.”

Nigeria witness power cut as system collapse hit transmission stations
by Bamidele Samuel AdesojiNigeria’s Power Distribution Companies (DisCos) have announced system collapse across all transmission stations. This was disclosed in a statement issued by both Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKDC) and Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company (Ikeja Electric)
According to the information contained in the official twitter handle of the two distribution companies, all transmission systems collapsed as at 0438 hours and the Transmission Companies of Nigeria (TCN) is working to restore power.
“Power Update: At 2315hrs, we experienced a system collapse across all transmission stations. Supply was received at 0315hrs. Sadly, at 0438hrs, the system collapsed again. TCN & our team are working to restore supply. Kindly bear with us.”
Also, Ikeja Electric confirmed the development on its twitter handle, disclosing that the transmission stations have collapsed.
Meanwhile, both the TCN and other distributions companies are yet to confirm the development in power collapse. Hence, it is unknown if the system collapse currently affects all regions in the country.

Huge Czech protest marking Velvet Revolution demands PM quit
Prime Minister Andrej Babis faces a string of graft allegations and a conflict-of-interest probe by the European Commission centred on Agrofert, his sprawling farming, media and chemicals holding.
Around a quarter-million Czechs flooded central Prague on Saturday to mark 30 years since the Velvet Revolution toppled communism in then-Czechoslovakia, with protesters demanding that billionaire Prime Minister Andrej Babis quit over allegations of graft.
Some demonstrators waved flags or brandished banners calling for Babis to step down and chanted "Shame!" and "Resign!".
The CTK Czech news agency quoted Interior Minister Jan Hamacek as saying some 250,000 people had rallied at Letna park, the site of some of the biggest 1989 rallies -- matching a similar protest in June.
It came on the eve of the 30th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution, which saw unprecedented protests and a general strike end four decades of Soviet-imposed totalitarianism in the former Czechoslovakia.
A former communist, the populist Babis faces a string of graft allegations and a conflict-of-interest probe by the European Commission centred on Agrofert, his sprawling farming, media and chemicals holding.
Babis has denied any wrongdoing and his ANO (YES) party still tops opinion polls with around 30 per cent support despite the controversy.
He is also tagged as an agent in secret police files from the 1980s, something he has vociferously denied.
'Democracy in danger'?
People living in a house overlooking the rally strung a banner saying "Truth and love must prevail over lies and hatred", the motto of former Czech President Vaclav Havel, a former anti-communist dissident playwright.
Kristyna Kovarova, a 20-year-old student from the southern village of Malenice, said she had come "to fight for democracy."
"I think democracy is in danger because there are many people trying to twist it and set their own rules, but that's not right," she told AFP.
"I really don't like our prime minister's lies," said protester Josef Plandor, who travelled from the eastern village of Zasova.
"His huge conflict of interest, his lies, fraud, there's too much of that. He's not an honest man," said the 43-year-old forestry worker, adding that he was "sure" Babis would never quit.
The Million Moments for Democracy movement, which organised the protest, called on Babis to either resolve his conflict of interest or step down.
The 65-year-old Slovak-born politician was charged last year in connection with a two million euro ($2.25 million) EU subsidy scam, but in September a Prague prosecutor cleared him.
Student strike
Babis, the fifth wealthiest Czech according to Forbes, leads the centrist populist ANO movement in a minority coalition government with the left-wing Social Democrats, propped up by the Communist Party in parliament.
ANO took office after winning the 2017 general election campaigning on an anti-corruption ticket in the EU and NATO country of 10.6 million plagued by graft.
On November 17, 1989, Communist police brutally crushed a students' march, sparking a student strike and the creation of an opposition movement which then negotiated the Communist Party's departure from politics.
In late December 1989, Havel, then the opposition leader, was elected president of Czechoslovakia, which went on to peacefully split into the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 1993.
The neighbours joined NATO and the EU, with Bratislava also joining the eurozone in 2009.


[filmcritic.com presents a review from guest writer Athan Bezaitis. You can find the review with full credits at http://www.filmcritic.com/misc/emporium.nsf/2a460f93626cd4678625624c007f2b46/2a679a79ef9917b50825683a000847ee?OpenDocument
RIDE WITH THE DEVIL A film review by Athan Bezaitis. Copyright filmcritic.com 1999.
Hands down, this is the best Civil War movie since GLORY. RIDE WITH THE DEVIL is captivating from the opening scene and its eclectic cast is shockingly powerful. Don't worry about Jewel ruining anything; she convincingly makes the transition from pop star to actress, and Jeffrey Wright's (BASQUIAT, CELEBRITY) performance of a former slave fighting for the Confederacy is unprecedented and chillingly realistic. I have no clue what they were thinking with such a misleading title -- RIDE WITH THE DEVIL isn't some supernatural, special effects-laden, cheesy line-filled, end-of-the-millennium dud; it's a movie about a perspective of American history rarely talked about in classrooms across the country. The plot sympathizes with the ideals of the Confederate bushwhackers fighting a guerilla-style war against the Union Jay Hawks- and to its credit; it almost makes you believe in their cause.
Our protagonist is Jake Roedel, (Tobey Maguire – THE ICE STORM) a young Missouri-raised son of a poor Dutch immigrant, and he along with his child hood buddy Jack Bull Chiles, the son of a Missouri plantation owner, (Skeet Ulrich -- AS GOOD AS IT GETS, CHILL FACTOR) join up as bushwhackers when their homes and families are seized by Union soldiers. They both become skilled gunmen and execute daring raids on Union soldiers and sympathizers. By 1862, their unit, headed by Black John (James Caviezel), includes George Clyde (Simon Baker) and Clyde's loyal former slave Daniel Holt (Jeffrey Wright). With a harsh winter looming, the Bushwhackers must disperse and find shelter. Several members hole up in a hidden hillside dugout. While in hiding, their food and supplies are provided by the young widow Sue Lee (Jewel). When casualties are taken from a Jay Hawk surprise attack the group is splintered and Jake and Holt are united as soldiers in solidarity. As the war rages on, most of their remaining Bushwhacker compatriots are either dead or lost on the Southern cause, so Jake and Holt must decide whether to keep the fight alive or flee west.
The production of the film is outstanding; the settings, costumes, imagery, and soundtrack add a strong dose of reality to the characters. The gunfights are as exciting as any war movie I've seen, and the dialogue is also vintage mid-1800s Southern jargon, which Ulrich pulls off surprisingly well. The real gold nugget of the film however is Jeffrey Wright's character: Daniel Holt is a Southern black man fighting against Northerners. In principle, he's killing those who are fighting for the freedom of his people. This role has rarely been touched, if ever, in modern filmmaking, however the reality of the situation is that there actually were a number of black Southerners who fought for the Confederacy, many of whom thought that it would lead to better treatment after the war. Throughout the film Holt's emotions are expectedly hidden but when he reveals some inner demons the film is at its peak.
Believe me, I can understand why you wouldn't want to see it.  It's sounds hard to take seriously, right? Every once in a while a good one comes along against the odds and that's the case here. Director Ang Lee (SENSE AND SENSIBILITY) has done a fantastic job and this film is really worth watching, even at two hours and ten minutes. I still haven't figured out what RIDE WITH THE DEVIL means exactly, but it would be a travesty if a lame title kept this one from being a real success.

BASIC INSTINCT A film review by Frank Maloney Copyright 1992 Frank Maloney
BASIC INSTINCT is a movie by Paul Verhoeven, written by Joe Eszterhaz. It stars Michael Douglas, Sharon Stone. Rated R, for nudity, sex, and violence.
BASIC INSTINCT is a difficult movie to write about, for me. Those of you who have been kind enough to read my reviews in the past know that I have often complained about the treatment of gay people in Hollywood movies, which seldom depict us as other than victims or maniacs. Paul Verhoeven (ROBOCOP, TOTAL RECALL, SPETTERS, FLESH & BLOOD, THE FOURTH MAN) and his newest movie are under a very vocal, high profile attack by gay, bi, and women's groups. And I'm not at all sure where I want to come down in this dispute now that I've actually seen the film.
Basically, there isn't that much here to review and the importance of the film is far outweighed by the activities of its detractors, who unfortunately are going to sell a lot of tickets for TriStar by making BASIC INSTINCT a news story. The film is gripping and involving to a degree whilst one is actually watching it, but once out of the theater one is struck by how little there was to it, by the egregious holes and murkiness in the plot, and by the superficiality of the film. I don't feel that trash is important enough to make a cause celebre out of, and this is a very trashy divertisement.
It has its moments, no matter how fleeting. For the afficionado of the aging, flattening male butt, there's a nude scene involving Michael Douglas. There's a delightful guest appearance by Dorothy Malone, looking well groomed, if not a little craggy. And most importantly, there is Sharon Stone, who is kind of like a Madonna who can act. She's aggressively sexual, stylish, hip, mocking, and smart. Ironically, her character, one that is attracting a lot of the protest energy, is the best defense of the movie's intentions (as non-homophobic); her bisexuality is unapologetic, taken for granted, and celebrated as a strength.
Michael Douglas's character, a troubled San Francisco homicide detective, is not particularly attractive or a very compelling apologia for heterosexuality, by contrast. He pretty much rapes his ex-lover (Jeanne Tripplehorn, who makes an interesting performance herself); he makes a really sleazy, homophobic remark to the Stone character's lesbian lover; he's basically a loose cannon, a bad cop, and not a very nice person. Douglas does all this with his usual delivery. Indeed, he is largely repeating his role in FATAL ATTRACTION, right down to his I'm-so-hot-I-can't-be-denied, love-making attack.
BASIC INSTINCT is like cotton candy. Touch it and it melts. Try to make sense of the plot, you cannot. It works only as long as you're in the dark in its compulsive clutches. Oh, it looks very good; Jan de Bont, Verhoeven's cinematographer, delivers a very attractive look. And Jerry Goldsmith's music is fine. But it's all surfaces, a thriller that cannot stand the light of day.
I cannot recommend BASIC INSTINCT to you; not because its sexual politics are held to be controversial by some of my brothers and sisters, but because it is not a very good movie. If you must see it, to find out what all the hubbub is about, go to a cheap matinee.

In this class, you will learn how compiler analyzes and optimizes programs. We will explore diverse program analysis techniques for imperative languages like C and Java. Some of the specific analysis techniques to be studied are program parsing, control and data dependency analysis, and pointer analysis. Such analysis has diverse applications ranging from compiler optimization to security vulnerability detection.
Homework and tests will cover these topics. You will design and implement compiler passes in a semester-long team project. While few of you will ever implement a full commercial compiler professionally, the concepts, techniques, and tools you will learn have broad application.
N.B. This section is different from Section-1. While Section-1 focuses more on language and compiler design, this section discusses different program analysis techniques.

split - Split a string into a proper Tcl list
split string ?splitChars?
Returns a list created by splitting string at each character
that is in the splitChars argument.
Each element of the result list will consist of the
characters from string that lie between instances of the
characters in splitChars.
Empty list elements will be generated if string contains
adjacent characters in splitChars, or if the first or last
character of string is in splitChars.
If splitChars is an empty string then each character of
string becomes a separate element of the result list.
SplitChars defaults to the standard white-space characters.
Divide up a USENET group name into its hierarchical components:
split "comp.lang.tcl.announce" .
→ comp lang tcl announce
See how the split command splits on every character in
splitChars, which can result in information loss if you are not
careful:
split "alpha beta gamma" "temp"
→ al {ha b} {} {a ga} {} a
Extract the list words from a string that is not a well-formed list:
split "Example with {unbalanced brace character"
→ Example with \{unbalanced brace character
Split a string into its constituent characters
split "Hello world" {}
→ H e l l o { } w o r l d
Parse a Unix /etc/passwd file, which consists of one entry per line,
with each line consisting of a colon-separated list of fields:
## Read the file
set fid [open /etc/passwd]
set content [read $fid]
close $fid
## Split into records on newlines
set records [split $content "\n"]
## Iterate over the records
foreach rec $records {
## Split into fields on colons
set fields [split $rec ":"]
## Assign fields to variables and print some out...
lassign $fields \
userName password uid grp longName homeDir shell
puts "$longName uses [file tail $shell] for a login shell"

THE DISCOVERER OF TIN
BY an anachronism of fifteen hundred years or more, of Perran was considered as the person who first found tin; and this conviction induced the miners to celebrate his day, the 5th of March, with so much hilarity, that any one unable to guide himself along the road has received the appellation of a Perraner; and that, again, has most unjustly reflected as a habit on the saint.
"It may here be worthy of remark, that, as the miners impute the discovery of tin to St Perran, so they ascribe its reduction from the ore, in a large way, to an imaginary person, St Chiwidden; but chi-wadden is white house, and must, therefore, mean a smelting or blowing-house, where the black ore of tin is converted into a white metal.
 "-- Gilberl.
A college, dedicated to St Perran, once stood in the parish of St Kevern (Dugdale's "Monasticon," vol vi. p. 1449). This probably had some connection' with Perran Uthnoe. The shrine of St Perran was in that parish, which is said to have contained his head, and other relics.
Lysons quotes a deed in the registry of Exeter, showing the great resort of pilgrims hither in 1485.
In the will of Sir John Arundell, 1433, occurs this bequest:-- " Item, lego ad usum parochie S'c'i' Pyerani in Zabulo, ad clandendum capud S. Pierani honorificè et meliori modo quo sciunt xls. "-- Collecetanea Topogr. el Geneal., vol. iii. p. 392.
For a full examination of the question, Did the Phoenicians trade with Britain for tin? the following works should be consulted :--" History of Maritime and Inland Discovery," by W. D. Cooley; "Historical Survey of the Astronomy of the Ancients," by Sir George Cornewall Lewis; "Commerce and Navigation of the Ancients," by W. Vincent, D.D.; "Phoeanicia," by John Kenrick, M. A. ;. "The Cassiterides: an Inquiry into the Commercial Operations of the Phcenicians in Western Europe, with Particular Reference to the British Tin Trade," by George Smith, LL.D., F.A.S.

Reports instantiations of Throwable and subclasses, where the created Throwable
is never actually thrown. Also reports method calls which return Throwable instances,
where the result of the method call is not thrown. These are simple mistakes to make which
are hard to catch in tests.
