Kakaravaara is a cottage rental site. The code is hosted on GitHub.
Built with Mezzanine which is powered by Django. A fork of Cartridge is used for the reservations part of the site.
Installation example for Ubuntu 13.10. Either do it your preferred way or follow the following guide.
SQLite can be used for development. For production installations, we can use for example MariaDB.
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 0xcbcb082a1bb943db
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://mirror.netinch.com/pub/mariadb/repo/10.0/ubuntu saucy main'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mariadb-server
Python 2.7 has been used while developing. Python 3.x might work but no guarantees at the moment. Pythonz is a nice Python version manager, though totally optional;
curl -kL https://raw.github.com/saghul/pythonz/master/pythonz-install | bash
Please add the following line to the end of your ~/.bashrc:
[[ -s $HOME/.pythonz/etc/bashrc ]] && source $HOME/.pythonz/etc/bashrc
PIP needs to be installed;
sudo easy_install pip
Suggested way to do development is to use virtualenvwrapper.
sudo pip install virtualenv virtualenvwrapper
mkdir $HOME/.virtualenvs
pythonz install -t cpython 2.7.6
mkvirtualenv -p $HOME/.pythonz/pythons/CPython-2.7.6/bin/python kakaravaara
The environment will be automatically activated. In the future before starting development, do;
workon kakaravaara
cd /path/to/local/git/repos
git clone git@github.com:jaywink/kakaravaara.git
cd kakaravaara
pip install -r requirements/project.txt
DB:
python manage.py createdb
Configuration
cp local_settings.py.example local_settings.py
You can run the application locally with the following;
python manage.py runserver
TBD
BSD

In this tutorial, we're going to be talking about scatter within MPI using Python and mpi4py. Scatter is a way that we can take a bunch of elements, like those in a list, and "scatter" those elements around to the processing nodes.
from mpi4py import MPI comm = MPI.COMM_WORLD size = comm.Get_size() rank = comm.Get_rank() if rank == 0: data = [(x+1)**x for x in range(size)] print 'we will be scattering:',data else: data = None data = comm.scatter(data, root=0) print 'rank',rank,'has data:',data
Create the information that we want to scatter about.
What we've done above is created a quick 1-liner for loop that creates a list of elements that is as long as there are processors, and generates a unique number based on a simple equation (x+1)**x which translates to the processor number, plus one, to the power of that processor number.
Now we actually scatter the data from the root processor of 0. Then we're printing out the rank, and the data that rank received from the scatter.
mpirun.openmpi -np 5 -machinefile /home/pi/mpi_testing/machinefile python ~/Desktop/sct/sct9.py
Keep in mind one of the restrictions to scatter, and that is that you can only scatter as many elements as you have processors. If you attempt to scatter more elements than you have processors, you will get an error like:


With the raise of social media influencers, Revolve as many e-retailers, is partnering with talent creators in lieu of investing in traditional advertising which seems to have a low impact on their Millennials and Gen Z consumers.
Content creators and talents whom Revolve work with are responsible for the majority of the site's revenue.

This project was part of the Introduction to Software engineering (CSCC01) course. We were put into a team of 5 people and had to develop a plugin for an existing software called Zotero. This plugin was based on requirements provided by a client, a professor from our university (UofT). As part of the project, we followed the AGILE software development method by creating burn down charts based on user stories and having regular meetings, etc. Eventually, we ended up developing a fine plugin that takes care of batch-editing of tags and being able to modify custom output styles. The following is our read me page for this project, from Github.
Installation
Simply install ZoteroEXT.xpi addon file to Zotero standalone or firefox.
You may also choose to build it yourself:
Manually:
- Clone repo
- zip the ‘chrome’ folder, chrome.manifest, and ‘install.rdf’
- change the .zip extension to ‘.xpi’
Or using our script:
Windows: (from a command prompt)
generate_xpi.bat
Linux/Mac:
sh generate_xpi.sh
Features
Intro video (Please Click to watch!):
- Batch add, remove, rename, or merge multiple tags in one go!
- Download, edit, and install user made CSL styles with ease using our built in powerful csl-editor!

Hawaii doctor’s employees plead guilty to opioid charges
HILO, Hawaii (AP) - Two former employees of a Hawaii physician’s office that was raided for illegal distribution of prescription opioid painkillers have pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges.
The Hawaii Tribune-Herald reports the women were employees of Dr. Ernest Bade, whose Hilo office was shut down in October 2018.
The 81-year-old doctor was charged with 40 counts of unlawfully distributing and dispensing controlled substances, but was found incompetent to stand trial due to dementia.
Court records say 55-year-old Yvonne Caitano and 60-year-old Theresa Saltus pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges related to prescription drugs.
Records say Caitano’s 33-year-old daughter Sheena Strong and 81-year-old mother Marie Benevides also pleaded guilty to separate drug counts.
Authorities say the women flew to Maui and collectively obtained more than 10,000 oxycodone pills after pharmacies stopped filling Bade’s prescriptions.

GAA stars from around the country were put through their paces at the ninth annual Combine in UCD, as they aimed to impress on-watching Aussie Rules scouts and earn a trial in Australia.
All-Ireland minor champion Uosis was one who caught the eye during the two-day fitness and skills testing event, according to the AFL’s website.
The 19-year-old recorded a blistering 2.76 second time in the 20m sprint – 0.92sec over the first 5m – and finished fourth in agility testing with a 7.92 second effort.
Both of those times would have ranked number one at this year’s NAB AFL Draft Combine Down Under.
The Dingle teenager also excelled in the endurance-based Yo-Yo test, where his 21.5 score was superior to the Australian Combine’s best overall performer, Hawthorn father-son recruit Finn Maginness.
AFL talent ambassador Kevin Sheehan was “super” impressed with 2017 minor All-Star Uosis but stressed that athletic testing was “only one part of it”.
“Today we have the game sense and match play (after testing the previous day), but they’re elite athletes and as good as what we have in Australia,” Sheehan told AFL.com.
You don’t jump to conclusions based just on someone’s speed time, but it does suit that they can break the lines and we are after fast athletes.
This year, Uosis — also a talented outfield GAA, basketball and soccer player — has starred between the posts for Dingle, been involved in the Kingdom senior set-up and led the way for PS Chorca Dhuibhne.
Two Kerry minor All-Ireland winners have made the move to Auatralia in recent years, with fellow Dingle man Mark O’Connor and Tralee’s Stefan Okunbor both on the books at Geelong.
While 20 participated across the weekend, Mayo duo Matthew Ruane and Oisin Mullin were among other top performers, with Down’s Pierce Laverty and Jordan Morrissey of Carlow also present.
“It’s inspiring to be in this environment,” Sheehan added. “The kids want to give it their best, alongside like-minded guys from all over the country who have played against each other but never met.
“They’re on a path that’s quite uncertain but exciting.”
Dubliner James Madden (Brisbane) and Ross McQuillan (Essendon) both recently landed deals off the back of standout AFL Europe Combine testing results.
The top-four rated Irish prospects from the Combine will be flown to Australia in April 2020 to train in front of AFL teams, while two more will test at the 2020 NAB AFL Draft Combine.
The first-ever women’s European Combine now follows the men’s edition, after Galway star Olivia Divilly excelled in the Melbourne trial two months ago.
As per photographs on Inpho, here are the 20 that attended:
- Aaron O’Neill (Kildare)
- Shane O’Sullivan (Kildare)
- Martin Shannon (Wicklow)
- Cathal Walsh (Galway)
- Matt Grogan (Dublin)
- Matthew Ruane (Mayo)
- Pierce Laverty (Down)
- Deividas Uosis (Kerry)
- Oisin O’Reilly (Roscommon)
- Blake Murphy (Cork)
- Oisin Mullin (Mayo)
- Brian Hartnett (Cork)
- Lorcan McBride (Tyrone)
- Karl Gallagher (Monaghan)
- Ultan Kelm (Fermanagh)
- Conleth McShane (Derry)
- Oisin McGraynor (Wicklow)
- Cillian Rouine (Clare)
- Frank Irwin (Mayo)
- Jordan Morrissey (Carlow) — did not test because of Éire Óg’s Leinster final.


Xiaomi has a bold plan to make 5G phones affordable in 2020
by James RogersonXiaomi has a bold plan to make 5G phones affordable in 2020
Lots of 5G phones at low prices
The Mi Mix 3 5G was Xiaomi's first 5G phone (Image credit: TechRadar)
Xiaomi could soon be one of the biggest smartphone players in 5G, as following on from a claim that it would launch at least 10 5G handsets next year, the company has now said that all its 2020 smartphones of over CNY2,000 (around $285 / £220 / AU$420) will support 5G.
That claim comes direct from Xiaomi’s CEO, Lei Jun, who said as much during a keynote speech in Guangzhou, China, according to CNMO.
The move could make 5G phones far more accessible and affordable than they are now, as Xiaomi will be offering a variety of handsets to choose from, offering 5G phones at lower price points than they are currently available.
- Check out our guide to every current and rumored 5G phone
- Xiaomi might also launch one or more foldable phones
- See what we think of the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G
Lowering costs
Right now, most 5G phone have flagship price tags. The Samsung Galaxy A90 5G is one of the most affordable, and even than costs £669 (around $860 / AU$1,270) to buy SIM-free.
Xiaomi for its part already offers a few 5G phones, such as the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G and the wraparound Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha, but its selection is a lot more limited than it sounds like it soon will be.
It’s not just Xiaomi which could make a big 5G push in 2020 though. It’s likely that Apple will finally add 5G to the iPhone range – possibly to all three rumored iPhone 12 models, while Samsung and other companies are also likely to offer a growing number of 5G handsets.

Abstract: It was recently shown that certain nonparametric regressors can escape the curse of dimensionality when the intrinsic dimension of data is low ([1, 2]). We prove some stronger results in more general settings. In particular, we consider a regressor which, by combining aspects of both tree-based regression and kernel regression, adapts to intrinsic dimension, operates on general metrics, yields a smooth function, and evaluates in time O(log n). We derive a tight convergence rate of the form n−2/(2+d) where d is the Assouad dimension of the input space. 1

Bit late, but I could not help much about it. 33degree was great, as usual not much to add. 3 days of Rock Star Speakers with topnotch talks and no one can argue about that :) There were already enough post written about it, so I'm simply going to skip that part ;) The only thing that I'm going to say about quality of conference is that I'm going to vote with my wallet and register for next year edition.
But to the point. Main reason why I write this post is to share experience from Open Data Hackathon.
When? Who? Where?
Tuesday evening, day before the conference started, Kuba Marchwicki with Fundacja ePaństwo (eGoverment Foundation) and thanks to the 33degree organizers (Thanks Grzegorz), gave as access to room Agat (+ a stash of beer ^^).
We started on Tuesday and were working till the last day of conference. After last keynote we've been given time on a main stage to present results of our work.
But what you've guys been doing?
Fundacja ePaństwo gave us a walk through the API, available data, explained what they do and why we should care. After that introduction we had a huge brainstorm to decided what we'll be doing in the course of the next 3 days, and decided that from all ideas, the best one is to provide neat web application that will allow digitalization declarations of assets (pl. Oświadczenia majątkowe) of Polish representatives. For international readers: in Poland members of parliament, government, and noteworthy people related to public domain (I just don't know who exactly :P) have to fill a form, where they state what assets (cash, houses, cars, etc) they got.

The installation process will hopefully be painless: Broccoli is installed from source using the usual ./configure <options> && make && make install routine after extraction of the tarball. Or if you're on a Linux systems supporting RPMs, we provide those as well.
The relevant configuration options to pass to configure are:
--prefix=<DIR>: sets the installation root to DIR. The default is to install below /usr/local.
--enable-debug: enables debugging output. Please refer to the Broccoli debugging section for details on configuring and using debugging output.
--with-configfile=<FILE>: use FILE as location of configuration file. See the section on configuration files below for more on this.
--with-openssl=<DIR>: use the OpenSSL installation below DIR.
--with-kerberos=<DIR>: use the Kerberos installation below DIR.
After installation, you'll find the library in shared and static versions in <prefix>/lib the header file for compilation in <prefix>/include, and the manual in HTML below <prefix>/share/gtk-doc/html/broccoli.
When installing from source, you can get rid of the installation using make uninstall.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English.

Government response
Religious groups back guidance protecting freedom of schools over religious education.
Religious groups have today (28 December 2015) backed the government’s decision to issue robust guidance that protects the freedom of schools to set their religious studies curriculum in line with statutory guidance and in accordance with the wishes of parents.
The recent Judicial Review of the religious studies GCSE ruled on a narrow, technical point, the meaning of which the Department for Education has now clarified, meaning there is therefore no need to seek permission to appeal from the Court of Appeal.
Instead, the government has issued guidance to schools that sets out clearly that schools will not have to change their religious education curriculum and that there is no need to give non-religious world views equal parity with religious world views in education.
Some campaign groups have subsequently tried to claim that this means that non-religious beliefs such as humanism must be taught on a par with study of religion. However the guidance issued by Education Secretary Nicky Morgan today makes clear that schools can continue to prioritise the teaching of major faiths over non-religious world views such as humanism.
In addition, the guidance reiterates requirements that non-faith schools must reflect the fact that the religious traditions in Great Britain are, in the main, Christian while taking account of the teaching and practices of the other principal religions represented in Great Britain.
The government will also press ahead with the religious studies GCSE . The judge explicitly said that there was nothing unlawful in the content of the RS GCSE itself. The judge made clear that there was “no challenge” to the content of the GCSE .
Education Secretary Nicky Morgan said:
This government is determined to protect schools’ freedom to set their own religious studies curriculum, in line with the wishes of parents and the local community.
The guidance I have issued today makes absolutely clear that the recent judicial review will have no impact on what is currently being taught in religious education.
I am clear that both faith and non-faith schools are completely entitled to prioritise the teaching of religion and faith over non-religious world views if they wish.
Reverend Nigel Genders, Chief Education Officer for the Church of England, said:
There has been confusion about the implications of the High Court judgment [with respect to the GCSE religious studies subject content] and we welcome the publication of this guidance note which clarifies the situation and provides assurance that the judgement does not impact on the content of the new RS GCSE .
Sheila Gewolb, Vice President of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, said:
The Board of Deputies of British Jews welcomes the Department for Education’s guidance, which supports the religious studies GCSE as it stands.
The Board believes that the RS GCSE must continue to support education about the traditional world religions. Other beliefs and world views can - and should - be taught through other subject areas.
Paul Barber, Director of the Catholic Education Service, said:
The CES welcomes this additional guidance which clarifies the position of RE in light of the judicial review outcome.
We are pleased to read that the judgement will not impact upon the content of the new GCSE in religious studies, nor the autonomy of the Catholic Church in determining the content of the RE curriculum in Catholic schools.
The judgement related to the introduction to the RS GCSE subject content. It concluded that a particular paragraph suggested that a school could rely entirely on the content of an RS GCSE syllabus to discharge its obligations with respect to teaching the basic curriculum subject of religious education at key stage 4. The judge found that while that might be the case, it might not always be the case - and so it was wrong.

I remember meeting my friend Josh. At the time, I was an aspiring recreational drug user - my group of friends and I would smoke marijuana on a daily basis, and additionally pounce on the opportunity of doing anything else that came our way (mostly LSD, mushrooms, ketamine, cocaine, and E). I was a spoiled, upper middle class suburbanite on a self destructive and introspective path of indulgence under the pretense of some vague and undefined spiritual enlightenment (this mostly from all the LSD!).
Anyway, on to my friend Josh... I would occasionally buy some hydroponic reefer from this guy, but only if my other contacts were exhausted at the moment. You see, Josh had a kind of reputation for being shady; for conveniently seeming to lose peoples' money in supsicious deals gone awry. That aside though, he was a cool guy, and we became friends.
Sometime later, I happened to find out that he was nursing a healthy heroin addiction, which spoke volumes about his aformentioned reputation among my friends. Anyway, of course I had to try it, and after some intense convincing, Josh said he'd hook me up.  Well, I was god for about 45 minutes, then the nausea set in, and I demoted myself to demigod status. After puking though, I felt just fine, and we proceeded to have a terrific night doing nothing in particular.
A little something I noticed about the actual experience of heroin itself. I had always imagined it to be very mellow; to instill an overwhelming sense of contentedness and general well-being. Wow, I was totally wrong!  Trying to appear straight while heavily doped up (as I most certainly was that first time!) can often be an exercise in futility (it can be hard to walk, hard to talk without slurring, hard to DRIVE).
And so I went home and promptly went to sleep. One thing about sleeping after a night of heroin use... its great! I slept maybe 6 or 8 hours that night, yet it felt more like 20. I awoke the next morning feeling absolutely terrific aside from vague nausea, and so it began. For the next two and a half years I was a dopefiend in every sense of the word. I would come to erowid occasionally, and laugh at the life-shattering heroin habituation experiences, thinking it would never happen to me. I was, after all, a naive, well-to-do subject of the white upper middle class republican suburban society, with not a care in the world....
...Except (eventually) when the next time me and Josh could drive to the city and get a few bags of dope to get high with was (probably 5 days out of every week). I'd like to say that the things people do while maintaining a heroin addiction are just cliches, and don't happen to 'normal' people. The people that stole money and robbed to fund their dope habits were just city dwelling criminals that didn't really exist, or so I thought. But as much as I hate to write these words, it happened to me.
I'd steal money from my rich parents, I sold anything that I owned of value, and ripped off my previous pothead friends who suddenly seemed to be avoiding me.
During this entire time, I would lie to myself and say that I wasn't addicted, that I was just experimenting (for the 400th time), and that I could stop anytime.  They must have known I'd lost weight, that I didn't care how I looked anymore, and during my first period class my teacher would observe me rushing unexcused out of class to the bathroom to puke because I was dopesick 90% of the time, yet they apprently couldn't put 2 and 2 together. The only thing I studied during this time was how much dope I could do and how to have the best time on it (this was easy to figure out.. just lie down). This taught me something about the education system, yet I don't know exactly what, and I didn't care. I was high, man.
I should have known things couldn't go on as they had for very long, and I think in some abstract manner I did, but what eventually happened was very sudden and unexpected. Josh called me one day from one of his friends houses. He had ditched rehab with some girl named Jocelyn, who had 300$ and wanted to get some dope. Sweet! I'll be right there man...
So we drove to the city, dropped 240$ on 3 bundles of dope (10 bags each), and started sniffing it up on the drive home. Throughout the day I had learned that Josh was on methadone treatment in rehab, but I thought nothing of it. They were renting a hotel room for the night, so we headed back there to relax and enjoy our highs. Sometime that night, I had the brilliant idea that we should get some pot, so Josh and I headed to my car to head to one of his friends houses for it (about 20 minutes away). As soon as I stood up, I felt REALLY wierd. I had the dope feeling, but the actual high was like normal dope times ten. We stumbled to the car, brought a bundle with us in case we wanted some more dope during the trip, and set off.
After about 5 minutes I let Josh drive because I was completely wasted, and could barely talk let alone drive. 5 minutes later and he pulled over too so we could walk around; we were both in no position to be driving. So we walked around, thinking wtf was up... we were both professionals, neither of us had ever been to doped out to drive before. We puked, had a couple cigs, felt somewhat better, and decided to keep going. We stopped at a 7-11 to get some heavily caffeinated drinks to bring us a bit out of the decidedly wierd dope high, and when we got back to the car Josh was freaking out because he'd misplaced the bundle we had brought along. Shit!
The next hour or so is hazy to me, we drove back to where we took our breather, then back to where we first switched drivers, and repeated this circuit maybe 3 times. We coudln't find the dope, and were getting seriously pissed and also a bit scared. This dope high was still almost overwhelmingly intense, and it had been a WHILE since we last even had any (a few hours at least). We gave up and drove back to hotel. I somehow convinced Jocelyn to hook me up with one bag for myself, and was getting ready to head home. I was still insanely high from the small amount of dope I'd done 3-4 hours before, and this should have been alarming, but for some reason it wasn't.
At the car my friend Josh said I was his best friend, man. We're going to be friends forever man, when we're in our 30's and shit, man. We hugged then, which was wierd because I've never done anything like that and actually wanted to, but it felt right at the moment and I was too fucked up to give it much thought at all.
I'd like to explain how this high was different. The entire time, I felt like I was on the verge of just dropping out completely, almost like I was in a dream, or watching myself doing the things I was doing from an outside perspective. Thinking was extremely difficult, my vision seemed different, almost as if what I was seeing could fade to complete blackness without warning. And the nausea and puking was outrageous. I've always had a semi-weak stomach, and if I did any medium to large quantity of dope and couldn't just lie down the whole time, I'd usually vomit.  Wierd!
So I drove home with the music as loud as I could stand it (this helps you drive when you're doped up, low or no music and you risk nodding off behind the wheel), and was afraid to go to sleep. I stayed up as long as I could watching some movies and puking every so often, and I eventually passed out sometime that I don't remember.
I awoke the next morning to a doorbell. I got up and still felt high from the night before, and my brain was still barely functional. I open the door..  I'm immediately suspicious and scared, and ask him wtf he wants. Hi, are you a friend of Josh (xxxx)? (Oh no, im thinking.
Yes, I'm a friend of his, why?
He died last night at [name of hotel].
(WHAT THE FUCK?)
We'd like to ask you some questions and fill out a report of what happened.
So my best friend was dead. He death was 'heroin related'. I was interrogated for 2 hours and had to file a report, no charges against me. All I did was drive him to the city and get high with him all night, I'm free to go. They only want the bastard that sold it to him. Typical...
 I have no idea why he died.  If this ever gets read by anyone, a response as to what might have happened would be greatly appreciated. With the amount of dope that Josh did this night, I had absolutely no reason to think he'd be in any sort of trouble at all. Later I remembered he mentioned he was on methadone in rehab, and thought there might be some kind of fatal interaction with this, but I dont understand how. Again, he did significantly less dope this night then he was accustomed to, and he died. Please, someone, explain this to me.
Here's where I knew I was done. The next day, just as the death of my best friend was setting in, I finished the bag that I had got from his girl 2 days before, the night of his death.  And I couldn't help myself.
And I knew if I knew someone with some dope right now I'd buy some.
And I know that if I had some dope at this very moment I'd be high on it.
 Its strange how the cravings come too. It's not even an everyday thing. I'll go 3 weeks without giving heroin a single though, just living my life as if I never heard of it. Then one day, craving for the drug will hit me so hard that it almost drives me crazy, and it takes 100% of my willpower not to hop in my car and head to the city.
I'm hoping that I can stay off heroin, for my own life and to honor my friend, Josh. RIP man, we'll meet again.
Peace

(Yes, we said mansion.)
We’re developers interested in making our apps work without constant internet connection. We’re designers exploring UX patterns that maintain user understanding of system state. We are all working on problems that very few have explored before, and we know it will take a wide range of viewpoints to solve the big challenges ahead of us.
Offline Camp is an open, participatory event. Please bring your perspective on Offline First and be willing to share — and listen!
Offline Camp is an opportunity to explore the entire spectrum of Offline First, including Progressive Web Apps, mobile apps (native and hybrid), desktop apps (e.g. Electron), Internet of Things (IoT) apps, the business case for Offline First, and the UX of Offline First.
Offline Camp will take place at Schloss Blankensee, a gorgeous baroque mansion set amongst idyllic gardens in Trebbin, Germany, just outside of Berlin. While we'll share our living space, there will be enough room to roam, relax, find solitude, and, of course, to collaborate.
All attendees, speakers, sponsors, and volunteers at Offline Camp are required to adhere to our Code of Conduct. If you have any questions or suggestions on how we can make Offline Camp more safe and inclusive for all campers, please let us know.
Offline Camp Berlin is sold out, but we'd love to see you at our next event! Share your contact details and we'll let you know when the next camp location is announced.
Gathering the community for a focused conversation about Offline First is a tremendous way to advance offline tooling, design patterns, and visibility of these challenges in the tech community.
We would love to have your help.

EU provides EUR 15 bln in aid to Ukraine in five years – EU envoy
The share of the European Union in Ukraine's trade continues to grow.
Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine, Ambassador Matti Maasikas says the European Union has mobilized an unprecedented package of financial support for Ukraine, worth EUR 15 billion, and it intends to continue providing aid as reforms progress.
"Since 2014, the European Union has mobilized an unprecedented aid package of EUR 15 billion in grants and loans to support the reform process in almost all sectors," he said at a public meeting of Ukraine's Cabinet of Ministers on November 20.
The financial aid was allocated for such areas as transport, energy, food safety, agriculture, antitrust agencies, financial services, customs, and environmental protection.
At the same time, the more reforms will be implemented in Ukraine, the more financial support will be provided to the country, he added.
According to Maasikas, the share of the European Union in Ukraine's trade continues to grow as well.
"Today, the share of the European Union in Ukraine's total trade is 42% and it continues to grow," he said.
UNIAN memo. In 2014, the European Union and Ukraine signed the Association Agreement, which marked the beginning of a new period in relations between the EU and Ukraine.
The Agreement is the main instrument for ensuring Ukraine's rapprochement with the EU: it contributes to the deepening of political relations, stronger economic ties, and mutual respect for common values. The economic part of the agreement, on a deep and comprehensive free trade area (DCFTA), provides Ukraine with an opportunity to expand trade relations and economic development since it opens up new markets, contributes to harmonizing legislation, standards, and regulations in various sectors. The latter will help Ukraine integrate EU standards into key sectors of the economy.


on to the syllabus
Study Syllabus and Practice Problems
Let’s get on with it. Remember, we’re going to do a mix of three coding questions to two machine learning questions. Order will be randomized.
Instructions: Simply, a question a day for an hour a day. If you don’t finish it, just continue that problem for the next day. Do not look at the answer at any time until after you solve the problem. This was difficult for me to do, but ultimately important.
Strategy Reminder: I would recommend you look over the strategy section. Google interviewers aren’t looking for you to regurgitate a solution you may have seen before. They’re looking to see if you are structured in your approach, disciplined in your implementation, knowledgeable and creative in coming up with different approaches. Doing steps 1-5 in the strategy section will help you through this; I literally wrote out all the steps during my interview.
Do all of this by pen and paper. Once you’ve come up with the solution, only THEN do you type it on a computer to see if it works. If it doesn’t work, do not debug on the computer. Debug by hand. Think through by analyzing each case. Do all of this while verbally explaining yourself. This all simulates the interview room conditions.

3000 MILES TO GRACELAND A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 2001 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): * 1/2
Demian Lichtenstein's 3000 MILES TO GRACELAND isn't the movie that you've seen in the trailers, which is a shame. That movie looked like a lot of fun.  We know this because the first 20 minutes or so follow this outline. But after that, in a hail of thousands and thousands of bullets, the picture turns into another gorefest that would be an NC-17 candidate if the MPAA hadn't long ago fallen asleep at the wheel. (Even HANNIBAL is rated R. Right!)
Our Elvis look-alike crooks include Murphy (Kevin Costner), Michael (Kurt Russell), Hanson (Christian Slater) and Gus (David Arquette). After a promising beginning, the guys shed their costumes and the movie turns into a bad spaghetti Western -- one too cheesy for Clint to have anything to do with.
Joining Michael for the ride is Courteney Cox, as "Cybil with a 'C'," and her thieving 10-year-old son, Jesse (David Kaye), as in Jesse James. Get it? Well enjoy it, since that's about as funny as 3000 MILES TO GRACELAND ever gets.
The busy script by Richard Recco and Demian Lichtenstein has more holes than the proverbial Swiss cheese. The script attempts to fill all of the holes with lots of shoot-'em-ups. And, when he can't think of anything else to do, which is often, the director points the camera at the clouds, which the editor speeds up. Cars, especially Michael's fire-engine red, 1959 Coupe De Ville, are shown flying down the highway with the hyperdrive engaged. Don't knock it. It keeps you awake. Barely.
Among the Hollywood actors to drop by for parts is Jon Lovitz -- you know, the guy who invented the Yellow Pages. "It's a joke," his character tells Murphy after one of his failed attempts at humor. You'll need to be reminded of that often in this comedy, which is as flat as the Nevada desert where it is set. Take my advice and don't stay to watch the music video during the closing credits. It will make you sad for it shows what the disappointing 3000 MILES TO GRACELAND could have been -- irreverently funny rather than mean-spiritedly tedious.
3000 MILES TO GRACELAND runs 2:00. It is rated R for strong violence, sexuality and language and would be acceptable for high school seniors and older.

Bill
*meow*
dont wanna see
Get it, or not
the baer
...hold it!...
This was my first project in this class. I learned a lot about HTML and CSS.
This was my second project in this class. I learned a lot more about HTML and CSS.
This was my third project in this class. Don't remember what I learned.
This was my another project in this class. I learned something about HTML and CSS...
And sometimes the baer eats...
Not for squarepants!
