Plugins
Jekyll has a plugin system with hooks that allow you to create custom generated content specific to your site. You can run custom code for your site without having to modify the Jekyll source itself.
Plugins on GitHub Pages
GitHub Pages is powered by Jekyll.
However, all Pages sites are generated using the --safe
option
to disable custom plugins for security reasons. Unfortunately, this means
your plugins won’t work if you’re deploying to GitHub Pages.
You can still use GitHub Pages to publish your site, but you’ll need to
convert the site locally and push the generated static files to your GitHub
repository instead of the Jekyll source files.
Installing a plugin
You have 3 options for installing plugins:
-
In your site source root, make a
_plugins
directory. Place your plugins here. Any file ending in*.rb
inside this directory will be loaded before Jekyll generates your site. -
In your
_config.yml
file, add a new array with the keyplugins
(orgems
for Jekyll <3.5.0
) and the values of the gem names of the plugins you’d like to use. An example:# This will require each of these plugins automatically. plugins: - jekyll-gist - jekyll-coffeescript - jekyll-assets - another-jekyll-plugin
Then install your plugins using
gem install jekyll-gist jekyll-coffeescript jekyll-assets another-jekyll-plugin
-
Add the relevant plugins to a Bundler group in your
Gemfile
. An example:group :jekyll_plugins do gem "jekyll-gist" gem "jekyll-coffeescript" gem "jekyll-assets" gem "another-jekyll-plugin" end
Now you need to install all plugins from your Bundler group by running single command
bundle install
.
_plugins
, _config.yml
and Gemfile
can be used simultaneously
You may use any of the aforementioned plugin options simultaneously in the same site if you so choose. Use of one does not restrict the use of the others.
The jekyll_plugins group
Jekyll gives this particular group of gems in your Gemfile
a different
treatment. Any gem included in this group is loaded before Jekyll starts
processing the rest of your source directory.
A gem included here will be activated even if its not explicitly listed under
the plugins:
key in your site’s config file.
Gems included in the :jekyll-plugins
group are activated
regardless of the --safe
mode setting. Be aware of what
gems are included under this group!
In general, plugins you make will fall broadly into one of five categories:
See the bottom of the page for a list of available plugins.
For further information on how to develop your own plugins, check out the Liquid documentation as well.
If you never developed a Jekyll plugin check this useful wrap-up by @ayastreb to get started.
Generators
You can create a generator when you need Jekyll to create additional content based on your own rules.
A generator is a subclass of Jekyll::Generator
that defines a generate
method, which receives an instance of
Jekyll::Site
. The
return value of generate
is ignored.
Generators run after Jekyll has made an inventory of the existing content, and
before the site is generated. Pages with YAML Front Matters are stored as
instances of
Jekyll::Page
and are available via site.pages
. Static files become instances of
Jekyll::StaticFile
and are available via site.static_files
. See
the Variables documentation page and
Jekyll::Site
for more details.
For instance, a generator can inject values computed at build time for template
variables. In the following example the template reading.html
has two
variables ongoing
and done
that we fill in the generator:
module Reading
class Generator < Jekyll::Generator
def generate(site)
ongoing, done = Book.all.partition(&:ongoing?)
reading = site.pages.detect {|page| page.name == 'reading.html'}
reading.data['ongoing'] = ongoing
reading.data['done'] = done
end
end
end
This is a more complex generator that generates new pages:
module Jekyll
class CategoryPage < Page
def initialize(site, base, dir, category)
@site = site
@base = base
@dir = dir
@name = 'index.html'
self.process(@name)
self.read_yaml(File.join(base, '_layouts'), 'category_index.html')
self.data['category'] = category
category_title_prefix = site.config['category_title_prefix'] || 'Category: '
self.data['title'] = "#{category_title_prefix}#{category}"
end
end
class CategoryPageGenerator < Generator
safe true
def generate(site)
if site.layouts.key? 'category_index'
dir = site.config['category_dir'] || 'categories'
site.categories.each_key do |category|
site.pages << CategoryPage.new(site, site.source, File.join(dir, category), category)
end
end
end
end
end
In this example, our generator will create a series of files under the
categories
directory for each category, listing the posts in each category
using the category_index.html
layout.
Generators are only required to implement one method:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
Generates content as a side-effect. |
Converters
If you have a new markup language you’d like to use with your site, you can include it by implementing your own converter. Both the Markdown and Textile markup languages are implemented using this method.
Remember your YAML Front Matter
Jekyll will only convert files that have a YAML header at the top, even for converters you add using a plugin.
Below is a converter that will take all posts ending in .upcase
and process
them using the UpcaseConverter
:
module Jekyll
class UpcaseConverter < Converter
safe true
priority :low
def matches(ext)
ext =~ /^\.upcase$/i
end
def output_ext(ext)
".html"
end
def convert(content)
content.upcase
end
end
end
Converters should implement at a minimum 3 methods:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
Does the given extension match this converter’s list of acceptable
extensions? Takes one argument: the file’s extension (including the
dot). Must return |
|
|
The extension to be given to the output file (including the dot).
Usually this will be |
|
|
Logic to do the content conversion. Takes one argument: the raw content of the file (without YAML Front Matter). Must return a String. |
In our example, UpcaseConverter#matches
checks if our filename extension is
.upcase
, and will render using the converter if it is. It will call
UpcaseConverter#convert
to process the content. In our simple converter we’re
simply uppercasing the entire content string. Finally, when it saves the page,
it will do so with a .html
extension.
Commands
As of version 2.5.0, Jekyll can be extended with plugins which provide
subcommands for the jekyll
executable. This is possible by including the
relevant plugins in a Gemfile
group called :jekyll_plugins
:
group :jekyll_plugins do
gem "my_fancy_jekyll_plugin"
end
Each Command
must be a subclass of the Jekyll::Command
class and must
contain one class method: init_with_program
. An example:
class MyNewCommand < Jekyll::Command
class << self
def init_with_program(prog)
prog.command(:new) do |c|
c.syntax "new [options]"
c.description 'Create a new Jekyll site.'
c.option 'dest', '-d DEST', 'Where the site should go.'
c.action do |args, options|
Jekyll::Site.new_site_at(options['dest'])
end
end
end
end
end
Commands should implement this single class method:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
This method accepts one parameter, the
|
Tags
If you’d like to include custom liquid tags in your site, you can do so by
hooking into the tagging system. Built-in examples added by Jekyll include the
highlight
and include
tags. Below is an example of a custom liquid tag that
will output the time the page was rendered:
module Jekyll
class RenderTimeTag < Liquid::Tag
def initialize(tag_name, text, tokens)
super
@text = text
end
def render(context)
"#{@text} #{Time.now}"
end
end
end
Liquid::Template.register_tag('render_time', Jekyll::RenderTimeTag)
At a minimum, liquid tags must implement:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
Outputs the content of the tag. |
You must also register the custom tag with the Liquid template engine as follows:
Liquid::Template.register_tag('render_time', Jekyll::RenderTimeTag)
In the example above, we can place the following tag anywhere in one of our pages:

{% render_time page rendered at: %}

And we would get something like this on the page:

page rendered at: Tue June 22 23:38:47 –0500 2010

Liquid filters
You can add your own filters to the Liquid template system much like you can add tags above. Filters are simply modules that export their methods to liquid. All methods will have to take at least one parameter which represents the input of the filter. The return value will be the output of the filter.
module Jekyll
module AssetFilter
def asset_url(input)
"http://www.example.com/#{input}?#{Time.now.to_i}"
end
end
end
Liquid::Template.register_filter(Jekyll::AssetFilter)
ProTip™: Access the site object using Liquid
Jekyll lets you access the site
object through the
context.registers
feature of Liquid at context.registers[:site]
. For example, you can
access the global configuration file _config.yml
using
context.registers[:site].config
.
Flags
There are two flags to be aware of when writing a plugin:
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
A boolean flag that informs Jekyll whether this plugin may be safely
executed in an environment where arbitrary code execution is not
allowed. This is used by GitHub Pages to determine which core plugins
may be used, and which are unsafe to run. If your plugin does not
allow for arbitrary code execution, set this to |
|
|
This flag determines what order the plugin is loaded in. Valid values
are: |
To use one of the example plugins above as an illustration, here is how you’d specify these two flags:
module Jekyll
class UpcaseConverter < Converter
safe true
priority :low
...
end
end
Hooks
Using hooks, your plugin can exercise fine-grained control over various aspects of the build process. If your plugin defines any hooks, Jekyll will call them at pre-defined points.
Hooks are registered to a container and an event name. To register one, you call Jekyll::Hooks.register, and pass the container, event name, and code to call whenever the hook is triggered. For example, if you want to execute some custom functionality every time Jekyll renders a post, you could register a hook like this:
Jekyll::Hooks.register :posts, :post_render do |post|
# code to call after Jekyll renders a post
end
Jekyll provides hooks for :site
, :pages
,
:posts
, and :documents
. In all cases, Jekyll calls
your hooks with the container object as the first callback parameter. However,
all :pre_render
hooks and the:site, :post_render
hook will also provide a
payload hash as a second parameter. In the case of :pre_render
, the payload
gives you full control over the variables that are available while rendering.
In the case of :site, :post_render
, the payload contains final values after
rendering all the site (useful for sitemaps, feeds, etc).
The complete list of available hooks is below:
| Container | Event | Called |
|---|---|---|
|
|
|
Just after the site initializes, but before setup & render. Good for modifying the configuration of the site. |
|
|
|
Just after site reset |
|
|
|
After site data has been read and loaded from disk |
|
|
|
Just before rendering the whole site |

O you who believe, when you are told, "Mobilize in the cause of GOD," why do you become heavily attached to the ground? Have you chosen this worldly life in place of the Hereafter? The materials of this world, compared to the Hereafter, are nil. |
| 009:038 Sarwar | : |
Believers, why is it that when you are told to march for the cause of God, you seem to linger at home. Have you given preference to the worldly life over the life hereafter? The worldly gains compared to those of the next life are but very little. |
| 009:038 Shakir | : |
O you who believe!  But the provision of this world's life compared with the hereafter is but little. |
| 009:038 Sherali | : |
O ye who believe; what is the matter with you that, when it is said to you, go forth in the way of ALLAH, you sink down heavily towards the earth? Are you contented with the present life in the preference to the Hereafter? But the enjoyment of the present life is but little compared to the Hereafter. |
| 009:038 Yusufali | : |
O ye who believe! what is the matter with you, that, when ye are asked to go forth in the cause of Allah, ye cling heavily to the earth? Do ye prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? But little is the comfort of this life, as compared with the Hereafter. |

JavaScript code on a web page can interact with Java applets embedded on the page. JavaScript code can perform operations such as the following:
This topic explores JavaScript code to Java applet communication using the Math applet example.
The MathApplet
class and supporting Calculator
class provide a
set of public methods and variables. The JavaScript code on the web page invokes and
evaluates these public members to pass data and retrieve calculated results.
Here is the source code for the
class. The MathApplet
getCalculator
method returns a reference to the Calculator
helper class.
package jstojava; import java.applet.Applet; public class MathApplet extends Applet{ public String userName = null; public String getGreeting() { return "Hello " + userName; } public Calculator getCalculator() { return new Calculator(); } }
The methods in the
class let the user set two values, add numbers, and retrieve the numbers in a range.
Calculator
package jstojava; public class Calculator { private int a = 0; private int b = 0; // assume b > a public void setNums(int numA, int numB) { a = numA; b = numB; } public int add() { return a + b; } public int [] getNumInRange() { int x = a; int len = (b - a) + 1; int [] range = new int [len]; for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) { range[i]= x++; System.out.println("i: " + i + " ; range[i]: " + range[i]); } return range; } }
The getDate
method of the
class returns the current date.
DateHelper
package jstojava; import java.util.Date; import java.text.SimpleDateFormat; public class DateHelper { public static String label = null; public String getDate() { return label + " " + new SimpleDateFormat().format(new Date()); } }
Deploy the applet in a web page,
When deploying the applet, make sure that you specify an id for the applet.
The applet id is used later to obtain a reference to the applet object.
AppletPage.html
<script src="http://www.java.com/js/deployJava.js"></script> <script> <!-- applet id can be used to get a reference to the applet object --> var attributes = { id:'mathApplet', code:'jstojava.MathApplet', width:1, height:1} ; var parameters = {jnlp_href: 'math-applet.jnlp'} ; deployJava.runApplet(attributes, parameters, '1.6'); </script>
Next, add some JavaScript code to the
web page. The JavaScript code can use the applet id as a
reference to the applet object and invoke the applet's methods.
In the example shown next, the JavaScript
code sets the applet's public member variables, invokes public methods, and
retrieves a reference
to another object referenced by the applet (AppletPage.html
Calculator
).
The JavaScript code is
able to handle primitive, array, and object return types. The JavaScript code can
also invoke methods from classes or objects in other packages using the
Packages
keyword.
... <script language="javascript"> function enterNums(){ var numA = prompt('Enter number \'a\'?','0'); var numB = prompt('Enter number \'b\' (should be greater than number \'a\' ?','1'); // set applet's public variable mathApplet.userName = "John Doe"; // invoke public applet method var greeting = mathApplet.getGreeting(); // get another class referenced by applet and invoke its methods var calculator = mathApplet.getCalculator(); calculator.setNums(numA, numB); // primitive datatype returned by applet var sum = calculator.add(); // array returned by applet var numRange = calculator.getNumInRange(); // "Packages" keyword; check Java console log for this message mathApplet.Packages.java.lang.System.out.println("Testing printing to System.out"); // Set static field using "Packages" keyword; static methods may be similarly invoked mathApplet.Packages.jstojava.DateHelper.label = "Today\'s date is: "; // Create an instance of a class and invoke method using "Packages" keyword var dateHelper = new mathApplet.Packages.jstojava.DateHelper(); var dateStr = dateHelper.getDate(); ..... </script>
The Math applet displays the following results on the web page when the number a = 0 and b = 5:
Results of JavaScript to Java Communication Hello John Doe a = 0 ; b = 5 Sum: 5 Numbers in range array: [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ] Today's date is: 1/13/09 10:12 AM // shows current date

 Each one more devastating than the last, we slowly became known as serial killers in the green thumb community. No more were we allowed at garden parties due to our negligence and perceived lack of empathy. The truth is, we were just so busy being awesome people with a plate so full of awesomeness that we seemingly forgot all about our green friends and they paid the ultimate price.  Never again would our leafy companions suffer at the hands of our busy schedules. Never again will they wither away into the dry abyss.

Had you descended from the Pequod’s try-works to the Pequod’s forecastle, where the off duty watch were sleeping, for one single moment you would have almost thought you were standing in some illuminated shrine of canonized kings and counsellors. There they lay in their triangular oaken vaults, each mariner a chiselled muteness; a score of lamps flashing upon his hooded eyes.
In merchantmen, oil for the sailor is more scarce than the milk of queens. To dress in the dark, and eat in the dark, and stumble in darkness to his pallet, this is his usual lot. But the whaleman, as he seeks the food of light, so he lives in light. He makes his berth an Aladdin’s lamp, and lays him down in it; so that in the pitchiest night the ship’s black hull still houses an illumination. See with what entire freedom the whaleman takes his handful of lamps- often but old bottles and vials, though- to the copper cooler at the tryworks, and replenishes them there, as mugs of ale at a vat. He burns, too, the purest of oil, in its unmanufactured, and, therefore, unvitiated state; a fluid unknown to solar, lunar, or astral contrivances ashore. It is sweet as early grass butter in April. He goes and hunts for his oil, so as to be sure of its freshness and genuineness, even as the traveller on the prairie hunts up his own supper of game.


Objective: Understand the assumptions which go into a "forecast" or a simulation, in this case an on-line financial calculator, and its purpose.

DESIGNER-QT4(1) DESIGNER-QT4(1) NAME designer-qt4 - Visual user interface designer for Qt4. DESCRIPTION Qt Designer simplifies the process of designing and creating graphical user interfaces (GUI) using the award-winning Qt toolkit. Qt Designer is easy to learn. There are tutorials, walkthrough examples and the refer‐ ence documentation accelerating you through the learning phase. After that, Qt Designer greatly reduces the time and effort needed to develop even the most complex dialogs with an easy-to-use GUI and an integrated help system. Qt Designer provides a rich set of features aimed at making the creation of dialogs as easy and smooth as possible without reducing the power of Qt. It offers all the strength of the Qt layout system with a well-designed user interface. This, combined with the Qt Designer's undo/redo system makes it simple to try different arrangements of the widgets until the result satisfies you. Using Qt Designer's convenient property editor along with the dynamic Qt property system it is easy to set the initial state of your widgets. Spe‐ cial editors for some widgets (like listboxes, comboboxes, etc.) allow you to fill these widgets with content without writing any code. Using the object hierarchy view, the parent-child relationship between the wid‐ gets of a dialog can be understood at a glance. Integrating dialogs into a Qt project is straightforward thanks to the User Interface Compiler (UIC), which generates C++ code from the XML dia‐ log description on the fly. The programmer can easily extend the func‐ tionality of the generated classes by subclassing without touching gener‐ ated code at all or running the risk of loosing their changes. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES QTDIR Specifies the Qt base directory. On Debian systems this should be set to /usr/share/qt4.

I want to kick this one off with an extremely brief history lesson. Roughly half a century ago (1964) Multics was born. It was perhaps one of the most influential operating systems, later superseded by my favorite operating system - Unix (trademarked as UNIX). The interesting thing about Unix, apart from introducing user permissions and a swath of other features common nowadays, was that it defined a standard. Other operating systems like HP-UX, Solaris or Irix could claim compliance and compatibility with Unix based on a purchased license. To my knowledge, the last system which did that was Apple's Mac OS X.
In the year 1980 the Disk Operating System (DOS) was released. It gave rise to a number of commercial products like PC-DOS and MS-DOS. The latter was the main operating system I used as a kid. Windows (initially called Interface Manager), a graphical extension for managing multiple applications at the same time, was announced just 2-3 years after. Despite its very disappointing beginnings, it is now the most popular desktop operating system. At one point in time there was significant rivalry between Windows and the Unix-based NEXTStep / MacOS line, but Microsoft and IBM eventually won against Apple thanks to competitive pricing. IBM computers were simply more affordable.
Sadly, a lot had to be sacrificed to achieve the level of user-friendliness Windows sports today:
Now, I wrote user-friendliness. That's not exactly true, though. Windows simply offers a comfortable environment for daily computer tasks. It doesn't help the user, it limits him or her. But perhaps that's what the majority of people really needs? I think it would be a complete disaster if critical system configuration was immediately exposed to the user!
Back to Linux, though. Currently, it's stuck in a bit of a vicious circle. It cannot become truly popular, because it's not popular enough. Many things out there, like pop music are popular, because they are popular. Because someone made an effort to market them well enough to start a snowball effect. Once the ball is rolling, it's difficult to stop and one can't tell anymore why it started rolling in the first place. What can be done to get the Linux ball rolling then? How to make it as popular as Windows and MacOS?
There are many initiatives, like the GNOME and KDE projects, already. Herein lies the problem, though. To make Linux more popular, it needs to be less like Linux and more like proprietary operating systems. It needs to appeal. Should it, though? Should Linux become yet another desktop operating system?

An Operating System provides an interface between users and applications and between applications and hardware devices. You've may have heard of a few of them:
The differences? Well, each has a different GUI, or Graphical User Interface, which is just the way things appear on a screen for users to navigate. Some Operating Systems are built for specific machines, but an OS like Linux is open source, and can be downloaded for free on any computer. Different OS's have different functionalities, but like a variety of car brands, they still generally sell you the same thing.
Can you have two Operating Systems on a single computer?
With a Virtual Machine, you can.
A Virtual Machine is an emulator that you can have on your computer. It is basically a computer inside your computer, so you can have a Mac with a Virtual Machine running Windows (giving you access to two operating systems on a single computer).
This 5 minute video should help clarify the concept of virtualization.
Ubuntu is one of the many versions of a Linux-based operating system. Because Linux is open-source, meaning anyone can freely access it, people have created many variations of it and Ubuntu is one of the most popular.
This 10 minute video will get you started on what you should know about Ubuntu.
This 7 minute video teaches the basics of navigating a Ubuntu interface.
This 20 minute video will show you the Linux Command Line and how to use it.

LICENCE TO KILL A film review by Jeff Meyer Copyright 1989 Jeff Meyer
Pity me: I began going to see James Bond pictures right when Roger Moore took over the part. I didn't find out quite what I'd been missing until the Guild Theater in Portland began running the entire series twice a year (one of the few theaters with class enough to serve Vanilla Cokes), and I got a chance to see DR. NO, FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, and GOLDFINGER. I would admit that there were other non-Connery Bond films I enjoyed (ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE is a favorite, for Diana Rigg if nothing else, and FOR YOUR EYES ONLY seemed to *want* to go back to an espionage storyline), but in general, trips to a new Bond picture were saved until everything else of interest had been seen, accompanied by an air of resignation that was usually fully justified. When Timothy Dalton took over as the new Bond, I couldn't have been more pleased; while THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS dragged a bit at the end and had exceptionally weak villains, the first half was everything I could want from a Bond picture. When I heard that LICENCE TO KILL would have a script written for specifically for Dalton (THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS had been written with Moore in mind), I was even more hopeful that we were heading back towards the good ol' Bonds.
Well, we've still got a ways to go, but things continue to look up. LICENCE TO KILL has several strong points: some depth to Bond, some interesting companions, a strong villain, some *real* suspense (find some of *that* in a Moore Bonder!), and some opportunities for Dalton to stretch in the role. The problems with the film can generally be summed up by changing the instances of "some" in the last sentence to "more." There's still too much emphasis on stunts and not enough on characterization, suspense and movie espionage. (As opposed to "real espionage," e.g., LeCarre.) LICENCE TO KILL is a tantalizing film, because you can hear the motor revving up during its entire length -- it's just that the engine never seems to catch.
The film concentrates on Bond on a mission of revenge, and Dalton does a good job with this: his obsessive drive to avenge a murder occasionally clouds his normally cool judgment, and he has to depend on the help of several friends to survive (a very nice touch). Dalton continues to play Bond as the professional of DAYLIGHTS (this is a Bond who is an assassin, and he works like one -- the double-oh licence is not for show); unfortunately, the script centers on Bond's obsession so completely that he's still fairly one-note. I kept feeling that John Glen, Michael Wilson and Richard Maibaum needed to be violently jarred during this film and told to tone down the stunts and keep the plot beefed up.
Other actors: Robert Davi, who's played villains for years, seems to really be picking only the cream of the crop for Bad Guy roles these days: Sanchez in LICENCE, and the Jersey don in the current WISEGUY arc. He's not a Gert Frobe or a Klaus Maria Brandauer, but he does a nice job with it. (I really wished the script filled in his character a bit.) It's a bit much to swallow underground cities of SPECTRE agents and island retreats with private armies these days; a South American drug kingpin has the same general capabilities, and a touch of realism to boot. Carey Lowell is excellent as Bond's lover/accomplice; it's a little much to see her get teary when someone else kisses James after she's held her own in a bar fight, but that's why the phrase "artistic license" was invented (also "Bond Women"). Anthony Zerbe plays a variation of all those flunky roles he used to play in Quinn-Martin TV series. David Hedison makes Bond movie history as the only man to play Felix Leiter twice -- a real first. (He also played Leiter in LIVE AND LET DIE.) Too bad he didn't have the Flying Sub in the opening sequence.... The rest of the actors are no great shakes, with the exception of Q, who doesn't overplay the role too badly this time. (Ah, hell, all of us engineers love him anyway. We'd all like his job.) And while we're at it, whose idea was it to stick Wayne Newton in here? "Bless your heart," my ass....
Overall, I found LICENCE TO KILL to be a good deal like THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS: strong start, but weak towards the end. Fully entertaining enough, though, and better than any of the Moore Bonds. Keep Glen & company under tighter control next time out, and let's have some more meat to the plot; these guys show promise for producing a Classic Bond in the future that could stand up to the Big Three.

In The Body Of The World Opens to Rave Reviews at A.R.T. in Cambridge,
MA
Eve A.R.T. in the body of the world.jpg
In the world-premiere adaptation of her critically acclaimed memoir In
The Body Of The World, Eve celebrates the strength and joy that
connect a single body to the planet. As an activist and artist, Eve
has spent her career speaking about the female body. While working in
the Congo, where war continues to inflict devastating violence on
women, she was diagnosed with stage III/IV uterine cancer. This
diagnosis erased the boundaries between Ensler’s work and her
own body. In this raw, humorous, and bold performance staged by
Diane Paulus (Finding Neverland, Crossing, Waitress), Eve charts the
connections between the personal and the public, inviting and
challenging all of us to come back into our bodies, and thus the
world.
Theatre critics and audiences agree, the piece is moving, deeply
human, artistically masterful and not to be missed.
To celebrate the sucess of the play and the story it tells, A.R.T is
offering a discount code to V-Day and RISING activists for the
final weekend of the show:

Ashok Gehlot targets NDA govt over economic situation in country
Industrial production has contracted 4.3 percent in September mainly due to poor performance in the manufacturing sector, according to official data released on Monday.
by PTIRajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on November 12 targeted the Narendra Modi-led NDA government over the economic situation of the country, saying the government is not at all paying attention to the economy.
"Industrial output contracts for second straight month, down 4.3 per cent in Sept, which is weakest performance in nearly 8 years due to sluggishness across a number of sectors including manufacturing," Gehlot said.
"It is yet another sign of #EconomicSlowdown but NDA is not at all paying attention to economy," he tweeted.
Industrial production has contracted 4.3 percent in September mainly due to poor performance in the manufacturing sector, according to official data released on Monday.
A slowdown was witnessed in the manufacturing sector, which declined by 3.9 per cent in September as compared to 4.8 percent growth a year ago.Get access to India's fastest growing financial subscriptions service Moneycontrol Pro for as little as Rs 599 for first year.

From 2017, design trending has changed to tab bar, instead of slide menu. UITabBarController
has become one of the most popular controller. It’s very simple to use. But sometime, it’s too simple to customize and make attractive. Designers are artists, and they usually want tab bar like this
or like this
I had to implement a tab bar like above in 2015. My implementation at that time was bad. I used a UIViewController
as a main controller, and added a custom view like a tab bar. And everytime a tab selected, embed the other UIViewController
into the main controller. That’s not good option.
Today I make a UITabBarController
with a custom view like a tab bar. With this solution, we can use the max strength of UITabBarController
with the same behavior and code. Much easier and better than my implementation before. Hope anyone can easily customize to their design if they want after this note.
First thing need to be customized is the UITabBarItem
. UITabBarItem
is not flexible enough to be customized to anything I want. I need to use UIButton
.
class knTabBarItem: UIButton {
// (1)
var itemHeight: CGFloat = 0
// (2)
var lock = false
// (3)
var color: UIColor = UIColor.lightGray {
didSet {
guard lock == false else { return }
iconImageView.change(color: color)
textLabel.textColor = color
}}
// (4)
private let iconImageView = knUIMaker.makeImageView(contentMode: .scaleAspectFit)
private let textLabel = knUIMaker.makeLabel(font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 11),
color: .black, alignment: .center)
convenience init(icon: UIImage, title: String,
font: UIFont = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 11)) {
self.init()
translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
iconImageView.image = icon
textLabel.text = title
textLabel.font = UIFont(name: font.fontName, size: 11)
setupView()
}
// (5)
private func setupView() {
addSubviews(views: iconImageView, textLabel)
iconImageView.top(toView: self, space: 4)
iconImageView.centerX(toView: self)
iconImageView.square()
let iconBottomConstant: CGFloat = textLabel.text == "" ? -2 : -20
iconImageView.bottom(toView: self, space: iconBottomConstant)
textLabel.bottom(toView: self, space: -2)
textLabel.centerX(toView: self)
}
}
(1): Some tab items can be bigger than others. I can easily set the height for them to make difference with others.
(2) (3): Same to (1), some tab items are very unacceptional with different color and don’t change color when selected.
(4): knUIMaker is my collection to make controls. Just easier to make UIButton, UIImageView, UILabel by code.
(5): addSubviews
, top
, centerX
, bottom
are from my knConstraints to make auto layout. I’m a fan of auto layout programmatically, so make controls and set layouts by code is what to do hundreds of times everyday.
Next thing I have to focus on is UITabBar
.
class knTabBar: UITabBar {
// (1)
var kn_items = [knTabBarItem]()
convenience init(items: [knTabBarItem]) {
self.init()
kn_items = items
translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
setupView()
}
override var tintColor: UIColor! {
didSet {
for item in kn_items {
item.color = tintColor
}}}
func setupView() {
backgroundColor = .white
if kn_items.count == 0 { return }
// (2)
let line = knUIMaker.makeLine(color: .gray, height: 0.5)
addSubviews(views: line)
line.horizontal(toView: self)
line.top(toView: self)
// (3)
var horizontalConstraints = "H:|"
let itemWidth: CGFloat = screenWidth / CGFloat(kn_items.count)
for i in 0 ..< kn_items.count {
let item = kn_items[i]
addSubviews(views: item)
if item.itemHeight == 0 {
item.vertical(toView: self)
}
else {
item.bottom(toView: self)
item.height(item.itemHeight)
}
item.width(itemWidth)
horizontalConstraints += String(format: "[v%d]", i)
if item.lock == false {
item.color = tintColor
}
}
horizontalConstraints += "|"
addConstraints(withFormat: horizontalConstraints, arrayOf: kn_items)
}
}
(1): I can’t override items
in UITabBar
, so I name it a little bit similar to easier to remember
(2): Add a line to separate the tab bar to the controller. Some designs need indicator at the selected item, I will add indicator here.
(3): Flexible to add items by programmatically. Thanks Apple for Auto Layout Programmatically.
The easiest thing is here. Just inherit from UITabBarController
, add some code, and it works.
class knTabController: UITabBarController {
var kn_tabBar: knTabBar!
var selectedColor = UIColor.darkGray
var normalColor = UIColor.lightGray {
didSet {
kn_tabBar.tintColor = normalColor
}}
private var kn_tabBarHeight: CGFloat = 49
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
tabBar.isHidden = true
setupView()
}
func setupView() {}
private func setTabBar(items: [knTabBarItem], height: CGFloat = 49) {
guard items.count > 0 else { return }
kn_tabBar = knTabBar(items: items)
guard let bar = kn_tabBar else { return }
kn_tabBar.tintColor = normalColor
bar.kn_items.first?.color = selectedColor
view.addSubviews(views: bar)
bar.horizontal(toView: view)
bar.bottom(toView: view)
kn_tabBarHeight = height
bar.height(kn_tabBarHeight)
for i in 0 ..< items.count {
items[i].tag = i
items[i].addTarget(self, action: #selector(switchTab))
}
}
@objc func switchTab(button: UIButton) {
selectedIndex = button.tag
}
}
That’s ready for new tab bar. Just use it in a controller.
knTabController
to your controller.setupView
method.
class DoctorController: knTabController {
override func setupView() {
let home = knTabBarItem(icon: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "home"), title: "Home")
let appointment = knTabBarItem(icon: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "appointment"), title: "Appointment")
let add = knTabBarItem(icon: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "add"), title: "")
add.lock = true
add.itemHeight = 66
let doctors = knTabBarItem(icon: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "doctors"), title: "Doctors")
let porfolio = knTabBarItem(icon: #imageLiteral(resourceName: "user"), title: "Porfolio")
let red = UIViewController()
red.view.backgroundColor = .red
let green = UIViewController()
green.view.backgroundColor = .green
let blue = UIViewController()
blue.view.backgroundColor = .white
let yellow = UIViewController()
yellow.view.backgroundColor = .yellow
let gray = UIViewController()
gray.view.backgroundColor = .gray
setTabBar(items: [home, appointment, add, doctors, porfolio])
viewControllers = [red, green, blue, yellow, gray]
normalColor = .red
}
}
But it’s better if we have animation, looks much better.
knTabController
, change method switchTab
content to
let newIndex = button.tag
changeTab(from: selectedIndex, to: newIndex)
changeTab
private func changeTab(from fromIndex: Int, to toIndex: Int) {
kn_tabBar.kn_items[fromIndex].color = normalColor
kn_tabBar.kn_items[toIndex].color = selectedColor
animateSliding(from: fromIndex, to: toIndex)
}
Hope this can help anyone want to customize a tab bar can do it effortless. Code is here.
I will add some more animations and some properties to make it more convenience in very near future. Suggestions and feedbacks are welcome.
I am a fan of Auto Layout Programmatically, so usually use my library, knConstraints for setting constraints. knConstraints is a very simple way to setup Auto Layout with very easy to read syntax. You can try it yourself here.


FLIGHT OF THE INNOCENT A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1994 James Berardinelli
Rating (Linear 0 to 10): 7.7
Date Released: varies Running Length: 1:45 Rated: R (Graphic violence)
Starring: Manuel Colao, Francesca Neri, Jacques Perrin, Federico Pacifici, Lucio Zagaria Director: Carlo Calei Producers: Franco Cristaldi and Domenico Procacci Screenplay: Carlo Calei and Gualtiero Rosella Music: Carlo Siliotto Released by MGM In Italian with subtitles
FLIGHT OF THE INNOCENT is director Carlo Calei's feature debut, and if certain elements of the movie have a familiar feel, it's no accident. Mr. Calei is an unabashed admirer of American filmmakers such as Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg, and he has made use of several of those mens' cinematic techniques to enrich his own movie.
The "innocent" of the title is Vito (Manuel Colao), the ten year old son of a family of criminals. When there's a falling out with some "associates" over the kidnapping and murder of a millionaire's son, a massacre ensues in which every member of Vito's family is killed. The boy's quickness and intelligence are the only things that save him. But the killer (Federico Pacifici) knows about Vito, and when he learns that the child is headed for Rome, the chase is on. During a journey that is as much a moral trek as a physical one, Vito must confront the deeds of his family and attempt to make what little recompense he can - all while his own chance of survival becomes dimmer by the moment.
The same kind of pulse-pounding excitement evident in one of 1993's most popular American thrillers, THE FUGITIVE, can be found in FLIGHT OF THE INNOCENT. Except during several character-building sequences (most of which work surprisingly well--many of the players in this story, especially Vito, have depth and breadth), this film is driven by adrenaline, and whenever the action slows for a while, you can be sure that another fast-paced scene is just around the corner. The result is a mostly-linear story that passes at an amazing rate.
Mr. Calei borrows many of his most stunning visual images from Martin Scorsese, including a "blood flower" that depicts beauty in the midst of gut-wrenching horror. The "boy's view" camera angles (from Spielberg) are utilized exceptionally well--enough to be interesting, but not enough to overexpose the viewer to the technique.
Sounds, like sights, are on the director's pallet. Footfalls, breathing, gunshots, lightning--these all come across with startling clarity, complimenting the visuals and emphasizing the tension.
Unfortunately, the last third of FLIGHT OF THE INNOCENT suffers from script-related problems that dampen the strength of the climax and conclusion. Plot contrivances conspire to stretch the credulity of the audience. On one occasion, Vito suddenly acts in an atypical (and almost inexplicable) manner that seems designed to move the story in a certain direction.
The "child in danger" premise can, if handled properly, produce a tautly- effective thriller. Barring a few flaws, director Carlo Calei has done so with FLIGHT OF THE INNOCENT. The viewpoint here is that of a boy whose guilt is by blood, not deed, and we are given an opportunity to witness an added dimension to the genre: this blameless child's inner battle with remorse even as he flees for his life.
