Fuel Java SDK Core
|
| com.exacttarget.fuelsdk.annotations | |
| com.exacttarget.fuelsdk.internal |
The Fuel Java SDK enables developers to easily access the Salesforce Marketing Cloud (formerly ExactTarget) from the Java platform. Among other things, the Java SDK:
To use the Java SDK, you first need to instantiate
an ETClient
object:
ETClient client = new ETClient();
The Java SDK is highly configurable. By default, configuration is
read from a properties file named fuelsdk.properties
,
which should be located in your class path.
Alternatively, you can pass in the path of the file to be read as
an argument to the ETClient
constructor:
ETClient client = new ETClient("fuelsdk.properties");
You can also pass in a programmatically constructed
ETConfiguration
object:
ETConfiguration configuration = new ETConfiguration(); configuration.setClientId("clientIdGoesHere"); configuration.setClientSecret("clientSecretGoesHere"); ETClient client = new ETClient(ETConfiguration);
Once the client has been initialized, you interacted
with the API using its create
, retrieve
,
update
, and delete
methods.
In addition, some objects (e.g., ETDataExtension
and ETTriggeredEmail
contain object native
methods (e.g., insert
, select
,
update
, and delete
for ETDataExtension
and send
for
TriggeredEmail
). For information on these
object native methods, please see the class documentation.

Factors¶
Factors are the treatments or interventions which are manipulated on your experiment.
What is a factor?¶
Why do we use the term factor?¶
People use several different terms to describe factors, including treatments, variables and interventions. We use the term factor to be consistent with published formal ontologies for statistics and agriculture. We have deliberately avoided the term treatment as this can be confused standard farm practice for an experiment.
For example, if nitrogen fertilizer is applied at different rates to different plots then nitrogen fertilization is the factor and each rate is a different factor level. Nitrogen should therefore be documented as a factor in the GLTEN metadata schema. If phosphorous is applied to the experiment plots but at the same rate for all plots then it is not considered a factor. In this example phosphorous is part of standard management practice for the experiment and should not be documented as a factor in the GLTEN metadata schema.
A factor can therefore be anything which is varied across the experiment by the researcher. A factor is a general type, range or category of treatments.
What is a factor level?¶
A factor level is one of the different interventions for a factor. For example, for the factor Nitrogen fertilization, rates of 50, 100, 150 and 200 kgN/ha would each be a factor level; the factor Nitrogen fertilization has 4 factor levels.
A factor level can also be categorical. For example, the factor tillage process can have 3 factor level categories: no tillage, minimum tillage and conventional tillage
What is a factor level combination?¶
In an experiment with two or more factors, a factor level combinations is a group of one factor level from some or all of the different factors.
For example, an experiment has two different factors with the following factor levels:
- Nitrogen fertilizer exposure (factor)
0 kgN/ha (factor level)
50 kgN/ha
100 kgN/ha
150 kgN/ha
200 kgN/ha
- Tillage process
no tillage
minimum tillage
conventional tillage
An example of a factor level combination here would be 50 kgN/ha x minimum tillage. If this is a full factorial experiment, where every possible combination of factor levels are present there would be 15 factor level combinations in the study (5 Nitrogen levels x 3 tillage levels).
In the GLTEN metadata schema, for a full factorial experiment it is not necessary to describe every factor level combination. The factor level combination section is reserved instead for non-full factorial experiments. Using the factor level combinations section you can describe the combinations which are present.


Beltline open after crash at Todd Drive
by Stephen CohnTwo westbound lanes of the Beltline are open after a crash Saturday night.
Dane County Dispatch said it received several calls around 6:06 p.m. for a crash on the Beltline at Todd Drive.
The two left lanes were closed, according to a release from the Department of Transportation.
City of Madison and Town of Madison authorities were responding to the scene.
A News 3 Now reporter at the scene noted a car was on its roof.

Happy birthday sis!

Anyhow, be sure to have super awesome times


mirai is based on the Biorhythm Theory. It works on the belief that human lives move in predictable separate cycles. The
major three cycles are Physical, Emotional and Intellectual. The concept of these cycles start from the day of your
birth and they repeat every 58 years, 2 months and about 7 days depending on the position of the leap years and length
of the month.
How do we calculate it?
mirai uses mathematical formulae to compute the prediction. These are sin functions of constants and variables. Drop me
an email to understand the maths behind :)
How to read the graph?
Your biorhythm above the horizontal line indicates that your capacity in that area is enhanced; you feel stronger, more
alert, more connected, more empathetic. These are times when you are able to do more, be more, enjoy more. When the
biorhythm lines are below 0%, your capacity is diminished, and conservative behavior is recommended. Very important are
the points at the cross section - when the curves intersect above (positive) or below (negative) axis. The cross-section
of all three curves has the strongest meaning and usually announces a particular event or phase (positive or negative)
in which you are.
How trustable is mirai?
mirai works on the belief of a study first tried in late 19th century. The output from mirai is mere a implication of
this study. We do not state this as your future or any other calculation.

Incorporate human interaction into the segmentation task to
with minimal interaction
In our previous work, the automatic
segmentation was done by using an energy of the form
\begin{equation} E( S^V ) = \sum_{p\in V}\Theta_p(S^V_i) +
\sum_{\{p,q\}\in\mathcal{P}^V_n} \Phi_{pq}(S_i^V , S_j^V)
\end{equation}
where
We require only a single annotation (click) identifying a particular segment $S^V_k$ to be removed
Update the $\Theta$ term to allow $S^V_k$ to be
reassigned to its neighbors:
\begin{equation}
\begin{aligned}
\forall p \in S^V_k ,& \quad \Theta_p(\tilde{S}^V_i) = \left\{
\begin{array}{lcr}
0, & S^V_i \in \{\mathcal{A}^V\}_k \\
\infty, & \textrm{ otherwise} \\
\end{array}
\right.\\
\end{aligned}
\end{equation}
Require three inputs:
\begin{equation} \Theta_p(\tilde{S}^V_{n+1}) = \left\{ \begin{array}{lcr} 0, & \| p - c \| \leq d \\ \infty, & \textrm{ otherwise} \\ \end{array} \right. \end{equation}
\begin{equation} \Theta_p(\tilde{S}^V_i) = \left\{ \begin{array}{lcr} \infty, & \| p - c \| \leq s \textrm{ and } i \neq n+1 \\ \Theta_p(S^{V}_i), & \textrm{ otherwise.} \\ \end{array} \right. \end{equation}

Fintech Raisin Adds Naqoda’s Tax Engine Solution to Provide Tax Calculations
by JD AloisFast-growing Fintech Raisin has integrated Naqoda’s tax engine solution.
Raisin is a Fintech that provides access to higher interest savings accounts in multiple countries. Naqoda provides a multi-country software solution for the calculation and reporting of interest income tax and capital gains tax.
Raisin states that it will now have all the compliance requirements of German withholding tax (or Abgeltungssteuer). Raisin did not clarify if the service will be offered to other European countries or the US.
The German flat-rate withholding tax, or Abgeltungssteuer, is a tax on private income from capital and capital gains. This flat rate withholding tax came into effect on the 1st of January 2009.
Raisin COO and co-founder Michael Stephan explained the new service:
“By integrating Naqoda’s engine, we can offer Raisin customers in Germany an improved service. Those who select fiduciary deposit products now have a streamlined and transparent way to calculate and report the withholding tax on the income they earn from their Raisin-brokered savings.”
Raisin’s marketplace offers simple access to guaranteed deposit products from all over Europe, as well as globally diversified, ETF portfolios and pension products (currently available in Germany).
Since launch in 2013, Raisin has brokered €17.5 billion for more than 215,000 customers.


A Guide to Analyst Relations for Startups
When it comes to go to market and marketing there’s lots of pieces in a toolchest that all work together. One that comes a bit later, but if used properly (much like a PR agency) can be valuable is industry analysts. And while working with a PR agency can quickly start to become clear. How to work with analysts so it is productive on both sides can take a bit longer to figure out, or at least it did for me. Even before you do start working with them there’s the question of if or when should you. Here’s hoping this primer makes it a bit faster and easier for others.
What is an analyst
Apologies to all analysts, but of all parts of this post I might butcher this one
Analysts talk to a lot of companies, both the ones making products as well as the ones purchasing them. I’m not actually sure what the spread is I’d guess 80-20. A large output of this and other activities is creating various reports and rankings. Gartner’s Magic Quadrant is probably the most well known industry ranking. Much of what they create isn’t freely available for consumption so you likely don’t see the sheer volume of insights they put out.
Why would you engage with an analyst
So what do they do for you? There’s really two major buckets:
Help with sales/marketing – Given they’re informing and influencing buying decisions of businesses they can be one more person on your side. If a launch in Techcrunch makes business foo aware of product bar, then an analyst report or ranking can help sway a decision on whether to try bar vs. baz.
Consulting – The other major opportunity is for the analyst to give some form of guidance. In a larger company when you already have an established product they should absolutely be part of your launch process (more on that in a future post). They’re actively following your market and space, hopefully just as you are to some extent. They can offer an outside perspective and help with broad areas of focus and messaging.
More – In reality it’s as clean cut as above. They may be able to introduce you to good candidates for hiring. They may be able to introduce you to a large company interested in acquiring some capability which you have. They may be able to connect you with investors. All of these things can and do happen, but the above buckets typically are the primary drivers.
When?
First, engaging with analysts should always come after you have some confidence in the product, after you’ve started some marketing drumbeat, and after sales. In short don’t be in a huge rush here, you’ll get there, but don’t be in too big of a rush. As you start to get some attention and momentum it’s just as likely they’ll engage with you first as you reaching out. Also, marketing != sales, more on that in a future post.
But, let’s assume you’ve got a product which targets business (Analysts aren’t just for tech companies, though you’ll see the benefit here sooner if you’re say a database company than a HR product). Let’s also assume you’ve got some sales and have some good launches under your belt. As it starts to come up in sales calls if you’re in any industry reports or rankings that may be an indicator, if you’re hearing about other competitors having more validation in such reports. As a general rule of thumb once you’ve got inhouse PR they should be able to help guide and steer to the right time.
So how do you engage with an analyst
If you’re engaging in some form of report or article, that should start to be pretty self explanatory. They’ll send you a questionnaire, you fill it out. You go back and forth a little bit.
However, the majority of my interactions aren’t on those articles and reports, for ever one time I fill out lots of questions to help some report or ranking I have 20 calls with an analyst.
There are two primary calls you can have, an inquiry and a briefing.
Inquiries
Inquiry is just a fancy word for consulting call. An inquiry you will always be paying for.
A small detour here. The regularity and consistency in which you engage with an analyst makes a difference. They’re also people at the end of the day, so while firms have certain styles it’s even further multiplied by being very people driven. In your interactions you’ll have a different rapport with different people, it’s at a minimum important to be aware of this.
So back to an inquiry. Within an inquiry your goal is to pull back the curtain and give some backstage insights into what you’re doing and where you’re headed. This is typically under NDA and trust the NDA of an analyst. It’s worthwhile to be as candid as you can here, yes it feels weird, but you’ll get the most value. They’re not like that of a reporter looking for a scoop (not that you can’t trust reporters, just know if you say it, it’s on record). You don’t have to relish the entire call to one area, but areas of coverage are often:
- Upcoming products and major releases you’re working on
- Broader strategy and roadmap
- Get input on what they’re seeing and hearing from customers
Briefings
The other type of call we have is a briefing. This is a little similar to that of a press briefing. You’ll get on the call, and walk through some upcoming launch or just give an update on your company and progress. The latter is more common if they’re unfamiliar with you or your product.
Analyst briefings are good to do earlier than your press briefings, compared to press they’re like a bike with training wheels. It’s best if you still maintain your balance–the ride will be smoother, but there’s a little less risk of completely toppling over. One key difference is you often have a powerpoint deck you get to walk through during an analyst briefing. I’ve found this is helpful for pacing and key messages, I used to be skeptical, but now very much feel it’s always worth doing.
Pro-tip: You can create a deck and use it for press too, no they won’t want to get on a gotomeeting, but you can send it over so they have more content later. BUT, more importantly you can also walk through it on your own screen if it helps with pacing.
Within a briefing you’ll have some ability to ask them questions at points. Does this resonate? Are you hearing similar? What are you seeing in the market? Don’t turn it into an inquiry, but knowing the parts that hit home for them allow you to refine your pitch for the next call.
Engaging – the tactical parts
“Analysts are pretty much paid to talk and write” – @cote. So expect that often when you occupy their time there’s a price to it. In terms of finding them it should be pretty easy, to know the list of ones in your space, you may see them quoted or reference in various media outlets. You may just naturally crop up in a report.
If you create a regular relationship with them you’ll have some contract of hours over the course of a quarter or year. At an early stage company this is often owned and manage by whomever runs your PR from an internal perspective.
Conclusion
If you’re about to engage with analysts for the first time or haven’t figured out how to get the most out of your interactions I hope the broad overview is helpful. If there’s some glaring parts you feel I’ve missed let me know @craigkerstiens. And for further reading/watching I’d encourage checking out the great talk from @cote in the Heavybit library.
As far as take-aways and a recap:
- Don’t be too eager to jump in with analysts. They can absolutely provide value, but you have to put some time in before it really starts to pay off. It’s not an overnight change and takes building a rapport with them.
- At the same time, analysts can be useful in many B2B areas not just tech ones.
- When in an inquiry be open and as transparent as possible.
- Powerpoint/Keynote/Google presentations are useful in briefings, even if it’s just for you to follow along.


Exercise 19.
The correlation values can be very different for different states. Repeat the work you did in Exercise 6.10.18, using the data from county-lender-data.csv 3 and looking at the correlations between each variable and the number of payday lenders per 100,000 people, for the states of Missouri and New York. What is different about the correlations for these two states? Look at the data and do your own research on these two states - what might explain these very different correlations?

Being continually interested in altered states, I came across some GBL and decided that I should test the waters. This particular evening was well suited for experimentation, seeing as I had just finished a midterm and had nothing to do. There was the possibility of a few friends taking a train from New York to see me in Montreal, but it was well past their time of arrival and I figured that they must be coming up another day.
I had a 5mL vial at my disposal, and decided to begin with 2 mL. I checked the time to take note of the effects, 8 PM. After dosing, I sat back and waited for the effects. After about 15 minutes, I got up to walk around. I found my legs wobbly and my vision somewhat “choppy.” I found the music enjoyable, but it was one of my favorite bands so I’m sure a sober appreciation would have been just as good.
After about another 15 minutes of this (it is now 8:30 PM), I found the effects quite underwhelming, and decided that perhaps an extra 1.5 mL would give me a better idea of the effects for the substance. I put another 1.5 mL into a shot glass, and downed the toxic tasting liquid.
Over the next 30 minutes, I felt all of the afore mentioned effects escalating. I had very little coordination and found myself running into furniture and the sides of walls as I walked through the house. It was very easy to close my eyes, and I’m sure I could’ve fallen asleep if I had tried. When I would shut my eyes, there would be a tunneling effect, where the images I had just seen would disappear from my vision over the course of about 1 or 2 seconds, by the black outer edges of the image pushing inwards till the last thing I saw was whatever it was I was focusing on.  My stomach felt upset, and there was a kind of chemical toxicity feel to my whole body. I decided that some hashish might help the nausea, so I broke off a chunk and smoked a bowl. Unfortunately, the nausea persisted.
An hour and a half had passed from initial dosing when I heard a few knocks on the door. I got up, excited, nervous, regretful of my inebriation, knowing that my friends from New York had arrived. I stumbled to the door and we exchanged hugs and words and I invited them in. I informed them that I had taken GHB, not wanting to explain to them that GBL is broken down into GHB in the body.
I was looking forward to engaging in the social aspect of the drug but found that my speech and thoughts were incredibly slow and drawn out. I felt good, but there was no distinct sense of euphoria, and I think my elevated mood was largely due to my friends’ presence, especially because they are, under sober circumstances, incredibly funny. I did notice, however, a type of slowness to my feelings of touch. If I were to touch my face, I could still feel the pressure of my hand once I had taken my hand away, similar to, but in no way as immensely pleasurable, the body high of MDMA.
We went walking down St. Laurent to go to a small sleazy bar where they could get a few drinks after such a long trip. I would refrain from drinking, knowing that GBL and alcohol shouldn’t be mixed. The whole walk there, I kept wobbling, running into both my friends, nearly running into people on the street. My body felt much drunker than my mind. I knew how ridiculous I looked, but could not help stumbling along. I desperately needed some water, and felt that that might help alleviate some of my intense nausea.
We got to the bar. It was probably 10:15 or 10:30, around 2 – 2.5 hours after my first dose. I felt very sick by this point. My friends said they’d get me some water, and that I should just take a seat. I found a booth and lied down. I immediately began to fall asleep. I woke up a bit later with my friends by me and some water near me. One of my friends had been trying to wake me, shaking me, and I hadn’t noticed. We left the bar, seeing how I was clearly too exhausted to stay much longer. I kept drinking water the whole way back, and felt a great deal of my nausea recede.
Back home, we ate some naan and hummus and watched Seinfeld. I immediately passed out. And awoke at 1 AM by my friends, trying to get me off the couch, since it was where they were going to sleep that night. I stumbled to bed and fell asleep.
I would not take this chemical again. There was a very clear toxicity to the whole experience. The effects seemed comparable to alcohol, but not as good. While alcohol seems to facilitate conversation, GBL left me struggling to piece sentences together. The sleepiness, nausea and lack of motor skills induced by GBL were all unpleasant. Two thumbs down.

Supplementary Views
Collection views rely heavily on the concept of sections and items. When multiple sections are displayed it is usually important to provide some affordance for each. Supplementary views are views displayed in or around a section such as a header or footer.
Using supplementary views is very similar to cells so this should seem familiar if you have read the Basic Setup guide.
Preparing a View
Views can be loaded from a xib or programatically from a class.
First, create a subclass of CollectionReusable that will be used to configure each cell.
If you are using a xib, set the root view class in the inspector to your new reusable view subclass. You can then add subviews and create outlets to your class to be used later when setting up the view in your data source (more on the layer).
Without a xib, you will need to create the subviews manually in init(frame frameRect: NSRect)
.
If you view is not dynamic or does not need outlets you can also create a nib with a view of type CollectionReusableView and avoid creating a subclass.
Registering Cells
Becuase views are reused by a collection view it is never your responsibilty to load/initialize them. Each class or xib you intent to you must be registered before loading any data.
Use the following depending on if you are using a xib or a class alone:
public func register(class viewClass: CollectionReusableView.Type, forSupplementaryViewOfKind kind: String, withReuseIdentifier identifier: String)
public func register(nib: NSNib, forSupplementaryViewOfKind elementKind: String, withReuseIdentifier identifier: String)
The kind property is used to load multiple supplementary views per section. The common kinds that are provided in CollectionViewLayoutElementKind are header and footer.
Views only need to registered once when your collection view is setup. Typically this can be done in viewDidLoad in the controller containing your collection view.
Dequeing Cells
With your views registered they can now be used used by your data source.
Before your collection view will ask your data source for views, your layout must be setup to show them. Every layout is a different but the provided layouts typically have a headerHeight or footerHeight property or delegate calls to provide dynamic heights. If the layout does not make room for supplementary views the collection view will avoid asking for a view to display.
If we are using CollectionViewListLayout, the following would add a 50pt header at the beginning of each section
let layout = CollectionViewListLayout()
layout.headerHeight = 40
Now we can implement our data source method to provide the view for each section. If you ar using multiple kinds of supplementary views you should check the kind value and return the appropriate view.
@objc optional func collectionView(_ collectionView: CollectionView, viewForSupplementaryElementOfKind kind: String, at indexPath: IndexPath) -> CollectionReusableView {
let view = collectionView.dequeueReusableSupplementaryView(ofKind: kind, withReuseIdentifier: "MyReuseIdentifier", for: indexPath)
// setup the view as needed
return view
}

MISSION TO MARS * (out of four stars) A review by Jamey Hughton
Starring-Gary Sinise, Don Cheadle, Tim Robbins, Jerry O'Connell, Connie Nielsen and Kim Delaney Director-Brian De Palma Canadian Rating-PG Released by Touchstone Pictures - 03/00
MOVIE VIEWS by Jamey Hughton http://Welcome.to/MovieViews
It's been hours since I returned from the much anticipated sci-fi opus `Mission to Mars', and I can still detect the reek of moldy cheddar. Why? The movie is a shoddy cheesefest full of digital eye candy, stapled carelessly onto a flimsy screenplay which somehow manages to leapfrog the great promise of a space opera, instead shooting for the angle of a feel-good science fiction drama more akin to `2001: A Space Odyssey'. I got the feeling that most of my fellow movie-going patrons were expecting another `Armageddon'. But no, `Mission to Mars' certainly isn't one large action sequence about colossal disaster. This is a supposedly thoughtful, family-friendly space flick in which the apocalyptic excitement takes a back seat to visual elegance and uplifting drivel. You have been warned.
Of course, crafting a tightly claustrophobic space drama is not impossible (see `Apollo 13' for an excellent example), but few directors possess the skill and craftsmanship to pull it off without seriously scarring their reputation. Brian De Palma has enough directorial expertise and visual wizardry up his sleeve to pull it off. When he gets his hands on an intelligent, systematically practical script like `The Untouchables' or `Mission: Impossible', the director has the ability to create a sound technical achievement (although his overly indulgent style becomes bothersome more than occasionally). Of course, there's also the inexcusable string of crap that has carried his name (including `Snake Eyes' and the notorious bomb `The Bonfire of the Vanities').... all of which makes me want to call De Palma the most talented hack in Hollywood. That term may be too harsh, but if I were judging him solely on the perpetual waste of talent that is `Mission to Mars', my choice of words would have been slightly less lenient.
If I were Gary Sinise, I wouldn't touch De Palma with a 10-foot pole. Sinise is a wonderful, wonderful actor, but after appearing in `Snake Eyes' and this vomit-inducing sham, I'm sure he wouldn't want to risk the embarrassment of a third collaboration. The Academy Award-winner plays NASA astronaut Jim McConnell, a man who recently lost his wife (Kim Delaney) and is apparently psychologically unfit for an upcoming space shuttle mission to Mars (oops, forgot to mention the year - 2020). After a barbecue get-together for the astronauts, we cut to Luc Goddard (Don Cheadle) and his team, who are already taking measurements and calculations on the Red Planet. Suddenly, a towering formation of rocks and soil - probably best dubbed a `sand tornado' - appears and creates a whirlwind of suction. For some reason, the astronauts just stand there calmly to admire this, as if it were a lovely piece of art. The team is killed within seconds, expect for Luc, who was able to send one final transmission and may still be alive.
Immediately, a second mission - consisting of astronauts McConnell, husband and wife Woody and Terri Blake (Tim Robbins and Connie Nielsen) and Phil Ohlmyer (Jerry O'Connell) - are dispatched to rescue Luc and discover the mysterious secret of planet Mars. Let's put the `secret' on hold for now, and discuss the trip there. It is explained, whether scientifically accurate or not (probably not), that a trip to Mars takes roughly six months. I'm not sure why the quartet of screenwriters behind `M2M' didn't capitalize on this juicy opportunity of creating tension and claustrophobia. Instead, we join the team during their final days aboard the ship. What happened during the five months prior to this? Did they just play cards and tell dirty jokes? Still, there are few nicely tense moments (maybe the only in the movie) during the time-frame involving a fuel leak. DePalma's direction is quite good in these scenes, although the score by Ennio Morricone is largely inconsistent (organ music in space? C'mon).
There's a few good, imaginative ideas in the landslide of cheese, a sad realization that causes me to sigh out loud. It's a colossal bummer that `Mission to Mars' is poorly assembled and laughably written, with a dubious and supremely silly finale that will only satisfy dedicated optimists. As mentioned before, anyone looking for some disaster-movie carnage is going to feel savagely disappointed... maybe even cheated. After the unbelievably hokey final shot (with the words ‘The End' somehow adding insult to injury), a few audience members made the effort to boo and hiss at the screen. Others muttered obscenities, shaking their heads in disbelief while mumbling `Jeez, that sucked.' Okay, it did suck.
But you have to show the actors some sympathetic mercy... after all, they do pretty well. Sinise is sincere and effective in many of his scenes, Robbins and Nielsen wholeheartedly convince as a loving NASA couple, and funnyman O'Connell - well, he has a couple lines are actually amusing (and intentionally so). The digital effects accompanying the sand tornado sequence are quite impressive. So, by golly, where did this `Mission' go wrong? Looking back on the appalling experience, I would say in practically every conduit and crevasse it could have. While watching `Mission to Mars', my suggestion would be to immediately abort, or better yet, don't even strap yourself in for lift-off.

Simple Noun Phrases
Noun phrases are a fundamental type of linguistic structure that we expect to find in all languages. Noun phrases occur as core arguments of predicates and typically refer to objects (in a wide sense), but they have a range of other functions as well (including predicative uses). This chapter focuses on noun phrases headed by a noun or pronoun, possibly accompanied by grammatical markers and modifier phrases. Later chapters will cover more complex and atypical types of noun phrases:
- Noun phrases with clausal modifiers
- Apposition and flat structures in noun phrases (names, titles)
- Elliptical noun phrases
TO DO: Decide on groupings and provide links to later chapters (above).
This chapter is structured as follows:
Nominal Heads
In the simplest case, a noun phrase consists of a single head word, which is typically a noun, proper noun or pronoun.
hon/PRON såg/VERB filmen/NOUN \n she saw the-film
nsubj(såg, hon)
obj(såg, filmen)
hon/PRON såg/VERB Batman/PROPN \n she saw Batman
nsubj(såg, hon)
obj(såg, Batman)
hon/PRON såg/VERB den/PRON \n she saw it
nsubj(såg, hon)
obj(såg, den)
In all of the Swedish examples above, the subject is the pronoun “hon” (she), while the object is respectively the noun “filmen” (the-movie), the proper noun “Batman”, and the pronoun “den” (it).
Morphological Annotation of Nominal Heads
Nominal head words should normally be tagged NOUN, PROPN, or PRON.
Depending on the language, nominal head words may in addition carry a number of morphological features, of which the most common are:
- For NOUN: Case, Definite, Gender, Number
- For PRON: Case, Definite, Gender, Number, Person, Poss, PronType, Reflex
For example, in the Swedish examples above, we find the following morphological analyses:
- For “filmen” (the-movie): NOUN:Case=Nom|Definite=Yes|Gender=Com|Number=Sing
- For “Batman” (the-movie): NOUN:Case=Nom
- For “den”: PRON:Definite=Yes|Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs
Case Markers
Case marking is one of the strategies that languages use to encode the grammatical function of a noun phrase. Case marking can be realized through morphological inflection (captured by the feature Case mentioned above) or by clitics or adpositions (prepositions and postpositions). In the interest of cross-linguistic parallelism, UD takes a radical approach and treats all adpositions as case markers, attaching them to the nominal head with the case relation. This allows us to analyze the following examples as both having a direct dependency relation from the predicate to the noun phrase filling the (oblique) agent role of a passive, despite the fact that Czech uses a noun in the instrumental case (“kočkou”) while Swedish adds a preposition (“av”):
pes/NOUN byl/AUX honěn/VERB kočkou/NOUN:Case=Ins \n dog was chased by cat
nsubj:pass(honěn, pes)
obl(honěn, kočkou)
aux:pass(honěn, byl)
hunden/NOUN jagades/NOUN av/ADP katten/NOUN \n the-dog was-chased by the-cat
nsubj:pass(jagades, hunden)
case(katten, av)
obl(jagades, katten)
This means that prepositional (and postpositional) phrases are treated in UD as extended noun phrases, where the nominal head is the referential core while the adposition is a functional marker. This can be seen as an instantiation of Tesnière’s notion of a dissociated nucleus (Tesnière, 1959) and does not entail that the adposition is seen as a syntactic dependent of the noun in the narrow sense.
TO DO: Provide links to a central bibliography?
Morphological Analysis of Case Markers
While adpositions are normally tagged ADP, the tag PART may be more appropriate for case markers that differ from morphological case markers only by being clitics instead of inflectional morphemes. For example, in Ungarinjin (an Australian language), locative case is marked by a phrase-final clitic (Rumsey, 1978; cited in Velupillai, 2012):
dambun/NOUN nininga/PRON ra/PART:Case=Loc \n camp my LOC
nmod:poss(dambun, nininga)
case(dambun, ra)
The clitic “ra” will be tagged PART and carry the feature Case=Loc feature, whereas ordinary adpositions do not have a Case feature.
Determiners
Noun phrases headed by nouns often contain determiners, which can be roughly divided into four classes:
- Articles
- Demonstratives
- Interrogatives
- Quantifiers
Articles, like English “a(n)” and “the”, specify definiteness or related properties. They are obligatory in some languages (at least with some types of nouns), and completely absent in others. Demonstratives, like Latin “hic”, “ille” and “ist”, anchors the noun phrase deictically and seem to be available in all languages. Interrogatives, like English “which”, are used to form noun phrases that can be used in interrogative (and sometimes relative) clauses. Quantifiers, like French “tout”, “quelque”, and “aucun”, specify quantity or existence of the referent.
the/DET:PronType=Art book/NOUN
det(book, the)
this/DET:PronType=Dem book/NOUN
det(book, this)
which/DET:PronType=Int book/NOUN
det(book, which)
every/DET:PronType=Tot book/NOUN
det(book, every)
all/DET:PronType=Tot books/NOUN
det(books, all)
all/DET:PronType=Tot the/DET:PronType=Art books/NOUN
det(books, all)
det(books, the)
all/DET:PronType=Tot these/DET:PronType=Dem books/NOUN
det(books, all)
det(books, these)
In many languages, different determiners are in complementary distribution or have special constraints on their cooccurrence and possible order. Regardless of whether a noun phrase contains one or more determiners, the syntactic det relation is used to connect them all directly to the nominal head, as illustrated in the examples above. However, in languages where this is relevant, the subtype det:predet may be used to distinguish determiners that have to precede other determiners (such as “all” in the last two examples above).
NB: The det relation is not used for numerals (“three books”) nor for possessives (“my books”); see below.
Morphological Analysis of Determiners
Determiners will typically be tagged DET, but the tag PRON is also possible for words that are used both as determiners and as full (pronominal) noun phrases and where the pronominal use is predominant. QUESTION: Is this the right recommendation?
Regardless of whether determiners are tagged DET or PRON, they should normally carry a PronType feature indicating the type of determiner (Art
for articles, Dem
for demonstratives, Int
for interrogatives, and so on). Depending on the language, determiners may also carry additional features that indicate agreement with the head noun,
such as Gender, Number, and Case.
Numerals
Noun phrases headed by nouns may also contain numerals, which express exact numerical quantities (1, 2, 3, …). Numerals resemble determiners and can often replace them (“one book” vs. “a book” or “this book”) but have special properties in many languages, in particular in relation to classifiers (see below). UD uses the nummod relation to connect a numeral to the head noun.
three/NUM books/NOUN
nummod(books, three)
these/DET three/NUM books/NOUN
nummod(books, three)
det(books, these)
all/DET these/DET three/NUM books/NOUN
nummod(books, three)
det(books, these)
det(books, all)
NB: The nummod relation is only used for cardinal numerals (“one”, “two”, “three”). Ordinal numerals (“first”, “second”, “third”) are instead treated as adjectives both morphologically and syntactically.
Morphological Analysis of Numerals
Cardinal numerals will be tagged NUM and may carry features like Number, NumType, NumForm and NumValue. QUESTIONS: Should Number be obligatory? Are other features relevant?
Classifiers
A classifier is a word which accompanies a noun in certain grammatical contexts. The prototypical case is that of numeral classifiers, where the word is used with a numeral for counting objects and where the numeral normally cannot occur without the classifier. A classifier generally reflects some kind of conceptual classification of nouns, based principally on features of their referents. UD uses the clf relation to connect the classifier to the numeral (or determiner) together with which it modifies the noun. Examples below are from Chinese.
sān gè xuéshēng \n three CLF student
nummod(xuéshēng, sān)
clf(sān, gè)
zhè liàng bāshì \n this CLF bus
det(bāshì, zhè)
clf(zhè, liàng)
TO DO: Add Chinese characters to examples.
Morphological Analysis of Classifiers
The morphological analysis of classifiers is debated. Etymologically, classifiers are normally nouns, and UD generally recommends using the NOUN tag. It has been suggested that a special feature should be added to distinguish the classifier use, since the words can normally also be used as regular nouns, but there is currently no such feature.
Adjectival Modifiers
Adjectives modifying the head of a noun phrase are linked to the head noun with the amod relation. Unlike case markers, determiners, numerals and classifiers, adjectives can be multiplies and can themselves be the head of complex phrases involving modifiers of various kinds, as illustrated in the examples below.
a hard problem
det(problem, a)
amod(problem, hard)
a new hard problem
det(problem, a)
amod(problem, hard)
amod(problem, new)
a very hard problem
det(problem, a)
amod(problem, hard)
advmod(hard, very)
a much harder problem [ than I expected ]
det(problem, a)
amod(problem, harder)
advmod(harder, much)
advcl(harder, expected)
Ordinals
A special case of adjectival modifiers are ordinal numerals, which are generally analyzed as adjectives in UD.
the third man
det(man, the)
amod(man, third)
TO DO: Add link to chapter describing the structure of adjective phrases (including morphological analysis, which does not have to be duplicated here).
Nominal Modifiers
The head of a noun phrase may be modified by another noun phrase. The head of the modifying noun phrase is then linked to the higher noun with the nmod relation. A typical case is the genitive construction, which may occur with or without overt case markers.
the office of the Chair
det(office-2, the-1)
nmod(office-2, Chair-5)
det(Chair-5, the-4)
case(Chair-5, of-3)
the Chair 's office
det(office-4, the-1)
nmod(office-4, Chair-2)
case(Chair-2, 's-3)
Possessives
Possessive pronouns, when used to modify nouns, are treated as a special case of nominal modifiers (and not as determiners), given that they are noun phrases and alternate with full noun phrases in the genitive construction. In many treebanks, the subtype nmod:poss is used both for possessive pronouns and full genitive noun phrases.
her office
nmod:poss(office-2, her-1)
the Chair 's office
det(office-4, the-1)
nmod:poss(office-4, Chair-2)
case(Chair-2, 's-3)
TO DO: Add partitive constructions (and other tricky nmod cases).


STREET TRASH A film review by Alexander Siegel Copyright 1987 Alexander Siegel
Capsule: This movie is one of the most spectacular guts and gravy movies of the year. The first death scene alone is worth the price of admission. Not for the occasional horror movie watcher.
First, I have to mention a disclaimer. The budget of this gem is low. The acting is poor. The characters are unsympathetic, to put it mildly. The script is mediocre. All in all, the technical quality is uniformly poor. Fortunately, this is not why one would go see this movie.
The basic premiss of this movie is that there is a case of tainted liquor going around which is killing bums who buy or steal the stuff. Tainted in the sense that syphilis is mildly unpleasant. The effect of this potent drink is that it causes people to melt in a multi-colored and truly spectacular way. But since there is only a limited supply of the stuff, the writers have the bums mutilate each other to fill time. The violence is so explicit and thorough that it was personally surprising that it was not released with an X rating. I guess it was a small release and slipped through. Despite the violence, I found myself laughing loudly quite a lot.
Only once in a while does a flick of this magnitude wander along. Other comparable titles are ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES and TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE. I indeed feel fortunate for having seen it before it slipped away. I'm sorry I have no more information other than the title, and it will be gone before long, so seek it out.

The SO3Fun
toolbox is a collection of Matlab classes for numerical computations with functions on the rotation group \(\mathcal{SO}(3)\). It overloads the default commands for vectors and matrices to compute the analogous operations for functions of the given type. The underlying mathematical approach is accomplished via Wigner-D functions which form an orthonormal basis of the square-integrable functions on the rotation group.


Input Format
The input format expected by this class is an object of class
de.pxlab.stat.FactorialDataTable. Such a table contains a single line
for every data element. The first column of the table always is the
random factor and the last column always is the data element. All
other columns correspond to experimental factors and the respective
entries in the table are factor level combinations. Here is an example

The first colum is an identifier for the subject, the second and third
column describe the levels of the experimental factors and the fourth
column is the data element. Note that all but the last column may be
non-numeric strings.
Output Format
The output is a HTML file. It contains three section:
- Cell Statistics. These are statistics of all cells of the
design. There is a subsection for every source of variability in the
design. As an example a two way analysis of variance has the following
sources of variablity:
- T the over all statistics
- A the first factor
- B the second factor
- AB the interaction.
Factors are named after the respective experimental parameter if these names are available.
The table lists the following cell statistics for every level of the respective factor or factor combination:
- N the number of levels of the random factor for the respective factor level combination.
- Sum the sum of the data values for the respective factor level combination.
- SumSQ the sum of the squared data values for the respective factor level combination.
- [ ] the bracket term for the respective factor level
combination. Bracket terms are
defined by Keppel & Wickens (2004, pp 29ff).
- Mean the mean of the data values for the respective factor level combination.
- SD the standard deviation within the respective factor level combination.
- SE the standard error of the mean for the respective factor level combination.
Furthermore the respective subtable for each source also contains
the bracket term for the respective source. The bracket term at a
given factor level combination is the value of Sum*Sum/N for this
factor level combination. The bracket term for the source is the sum
of the bracket terms over all factor level combinations of the
respective source. The bracket terms are used to calculate the sums of
squares for various tests.
- Design Information. Describes the design of the data. This includes the
number of factor levels for each factor and the type of each
factor. The first column of the input data file always is the random
factor and the last column always are data values. Between factors are
identified by the fact that there exist levels of the random factor
which are not crossed with levels of the between factor.
- Test Results. Gives the computational results for the
statistical tests. It contains the bracket values, the sum of squares,
the degrees of freedom for every sum, the mean squares, F-value and
probability. It also contains a descriptive partial effect size
statistic R2p and an estimate of the partial
omega squared as defined by Keppel & Wickens (2004, p. 233f). The
latter is only computed for tests involving only between factors.
And here is the complete output for the data table given above.

The charming adventures of an analyst and his solver.
Python obfuscation using anagrams.
Here's the second in my reformed JAPH series. It takes an anagram of 'just another python hacker' and converts it prior to printing. It sorts the anagram by the indices of another string, in order of their associated characters. This is sort of like a pre-digested Schwartzian transform.
x = 'upjohn tehran hectors katy'
y = '1D0HG6JFO9P5ICKAM87B24NL3E'
print(''.join(x[i] for i in sorted(range(len(x)), key=lambda p: y[p])))
Obfuscation consists mostly of using silly machinations to construct the string we use to sort the anagram.
print(''.join('''upjohn tehran hectors katy'''[_]for _ in sorted(range
(26),key=lambda p:(hex(29)[2:].upper()+str(3*3*3*3-3**4)+'HG'+str(sum(
range(4)))+'JFO'+str((1+2)**(1+1))+'P'+str(35/7)[:1]+'i.c.k.'.replace(
'.','').upper()+'AM'+str(3**2*sum(range(5))-3)+hex(0o5444)[2:].replace
(*'\x62|\x42'.split('|'))+'NL'+hex(0o076).split('x')[1].upper())[p])))


About Me
My name is Mary Machado and I graduated from Rutgers University. I obtained my bachelor's degree in Computer Science in May 2020.
During the past two years, I have been lucky to participate in two different internships were I was able to work in teams and learned about the importance of communication between coworkers to accomplish planned objectives. Also, I learned that I am able to turn out well in a fast pace environment.
In my first internship I worked in a team researching about the adsorption properties of a material called "Biochar" which basically is charcoal made in a closed environment. Our experiment was to see how much of a contaminant would be adsorb by the biochar. In order to see the changes overtime, we used a special machine to make readings every hour during 3-4 days. This created big amounts of data, which we could analyzed using scripts in Python and created user friendly tables and graphs to show all the changes.
In my second internship, I was responsible to create a server in the cloud using Amazon Web Services. After that, I was in charged of the installation, configuration and deployment of ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Server and ArcGIS GeoEvent Server.
I would like to start applying my technology knowledge and my problem solving skills I have acquired during my two internships and during the development of school projects.


Preston North End talking points ahead of a busy run of fixtures
by Dave SeddonIt has been an international break to enjoy for Preston North End, with them sat in second place in the Championship table and on the back of three wins on the bounce.
Action resumes at Derby County on Saturday in what is a busy spell at the end of November and throughout December – nine matches in total.
Here we reflect on recent results and look ahead to the games coming up and the challenges they pose.
1. PNE’s run of three wins on the bounce is something they have only done twice before in the league Alex Neil’s time as Deepdale manager.
In March, they beat Blackburn, Middlesbrough and Birmingham in the space of a week.
During December 2017, Neil’s first season here, North End beat Queens Park Rangers, Burton Albion and Sheffield United in successive games.
If they could go to Pride Park and beat Derby to make it four wins in a row, that would be a huge boost.
History shows Preston’s record after an international break isn’t the best.
Why that is the case is a bit of a mystery but it will be something Neil will have looked at.
They returned from the September break to beat Brentford at Deepdale but in October lost 1-0 at Reading in a dreadful game.
2. The Derby game is followed by another away trip, with North End crossing the M62 to visit Hull City a week on Wednesday.
Whereas their away form has generally been their strength in recent seasons, this time it is a strong record at Deepale which has laid the foundations for an impressive first three months of the campaign.
Neil’s men have taken eight points on the road, winning at Birmingham and Charlton – both 1-0 – and drawing against Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough. In both those draws, they had taken the lead.
Two of the three defeats on the road came in the first two away matches against Millwall and Swansea.
So things have picked up, the Reading defeat being the blip on their recent travels.
If North End can continue with their strong home form and be solid away, it will keep them heading in the right direction.
After Derby and Hull, their away games in December are at QPR, Cardiff and Leeds – the visit to Elland Road a teatime kick-off on Boxing Day.
3. With a busy run between now and the turn of the year, the depth of the squad will no doubt be key.
Neil isn’t afraid to tweak the line-up from game to game after sizing-up the opposition’s strengths and weaknesses.
It is going forward where he tends to change things, so there could be opportunities for Billy Bodin, Josh Harrop and David Nugent as the weeks go by.
Jayden Stockley getting off the mark for the season against Huddersfield was a big positive, the striker able to add a goal to his work rate.
Keeping the goals coming is vital and the more players chipping in, the better.
We are all just waiting for that Nugent goal now!


The ARt Visualizer app is an in progress project I’ve created to allow users to display 2D art in a 3D frame (user chooses a style from a selection) in order to see it in your space before you buy it. This way users can decide between multiple choices of art and framing in order to better suit their tastes, furniture, or even see if it works in a friend’s house (surprise gifts that won’t clash!). It uses Swift in xCode with ARKit to create a mobile app for apple devices.

Attacking the tail for extra damage. Common in cartoons, especially for cats.
In video games, cutting off a creature's tail, especially a dragon's tail, often rewards you with a bonus weapon or crafting materials. In some cases however, you have to hit a creature's tail in order to damage it.
Compare Groin Attack, Literal Ass-Kicking, Pain to the Ass. See also Amusing Injuries.
Not to be confused with attacking with tails.
Examples:
open/close all folders
Anime & Manga
- In Beastars, Legosi closes a sliding door on his tail while excusing himself from Haru's gardening shed after the rabbit tried to seduce him. He was completely shocked by the act, something that was second nature to Haru.
- In Blue Exorcist, it's stated that the tail and the "heart" are a demon's weak spots.
- Dragon Ball:
- In Dragon Ball Z, the Saiyans' tails are their weak point. If you hold onto their tails, they are in so much pain it immobilizes them (e.g., Goku, Gohan, and Raditz). Subverted later, when it turns out that Vegeta and Nappa don't have this shortcoming (because of their training). When the Z Fighters made a break for their tails, it ended up backfiring because it didn't immobilize the Saiyans like they expected, leaving them open targets. Played straight later, though, when Yajirobe cuts off Vegeta's tail to return him to human form after he'd transformed into his Great Ape form.
- Goku managed to overcome this weakness in Dragon Ball, long before Vegeta was introduced. It's odd how Krillin didn't remember this when he faced them, though it's possible it's simply one of the things Akira 'forgot' as he wrote the beginning of DBZ.
- In a more amusing case, when Gohan was left in the wilderness to fend for himself he was occasionally hunted by a tyrannosaur, which he managed to fend off by removing the end of its tail. After he had taken a few levels in badass, he turned the tables (or the tails) by chasing the poor dinosaur and cutting steaks off its tail for his dinner.
- Goku does this by biting Frieza's tail during their fight on Namek, and he does the same thing to Beerus's tail in Dragon Ball Super.
- Mazinger Z: In the Mazinger-Z vs Great General of Darkness feature (that served to conclude the first series and introduce the sequel, Great Mazinger), a serpent-like Robeast had one head on each end. The tinier head, located on the tip of the tail, was the REAL head (Mykene Warbeasts were controlled by grafting the head of a Mykene warrior into a Robeast), so when Kouji cut its tail off, the Warbeast lost control and it was destroyed.
- Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: In the Compilation Movie, Adiane is beating up Yoko with her scorpion tail in their Designated Girl Fight, until Yoko uses her hairpins to stab Adiane's tail, pinning it into the floor.
- Snakeman in Yaiba has a major weakness in his tail: when Yaiba (accidentally) chops it, Snakeman's unable to keep his balance and stand upright and is forced to withdraw. The next time he appears, he has tied a bush branch on the stump, though he feels that "He's not going to look so threatening anymore..."
Asian Animation
- In Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Joys of Seasons episode 98, Sparky sees Wolffy approaching Tibbie to hurt her and bites the wolf on his tail to divert his attention. Wolffy, unsurprisingly, isn't amused.
Comic Books
- Gaston Lagaffe is once hurt by someone stepping on the tail of a kangaroo costume he is wearing. There is no official explanation, but a character speculates that the seamstress forgot a needle in an unfortunate place when sewing the tail on.
- In My Little Pony: Legends of Magic, Rockhoof retreats from battling a cherufe. As he runs, the cherufe throws molten lava at his tail which singes it.
- In Violine, Violine's pet mouse, Klaas, gets his tail cut by the claws of Muller.
Comic Strips
- In an earlier Calvin and Hobbes strip, Calvin freaks Hobbes out by saying there's a giant caterpillar about to bite him before stomping on his tail. Hobbes is not amused.
Fan Works
- In Dragon Ball Z Abridged, Frieza's biggest Berserk Button is having is anything happen to his tail. There's a reason why he provides the page's quote.
Films — Animation
- In the beginning of Cats Don't Dance, Danny accidentally slams the door against Sawyer's tail.
- In How to Train Your Dragon, Hiccup discovers that damaging the tail fin of a Night Fury reduces its stability so badly that it's practically unable to fly. This sets up Toothless as the Androcles' Lion for Hiccup to tame and befriend.
- At the end of The Jungle Book, Mowgli actually defeats Shere Khan by literally burning off his tail using a tree branch that apparently caught fire as a result of it being hit by lightning. Unfortunately, it's revealed in the sequel that this was actually a bad idea, and Mowgli learned it the hard way. Similarly, Kaa is often defeated by having his tail being tied to a tree trunk.
- In Kung Fu Panda, Tai Lung is tricked into biting his own tail in the final battle, causing the giant anthropomorphic snow leopard voiced by Ian McShane to make a comedic kittenish "mew!" which would be familiar to any cat owner who has trodden on his pet's tail.
- In The Nutcracker Prince, during the Story Within a Story, the Mouse King's tail gets smashed by a collapsing pillar, which was knocked down by a transformed Hans. This later becomes a Running Gag in the film's actual events, in which his bent tail either gets burnt or crushed again.
- Joanna, Percival McLeach's pet goanna from The Rescuers Down Under, was actually also tricked into biting her own tail at one point in the film.
- During the Wizard Duel from The Sword in the Stone, Merlin at one point actually tricks Mad Madam Mim (who is turned into a rattlesnake) into biting her own tail (Merlin, as a mouse, actually attempts to try it himself while Mim is still a tiger).
Literature
- The first time the protagonists of The Belgariad encounter the dragon (there's only one, long story) they scare it away by damaging its tail, which is effective because it's never encountered anything that could injure it before.
- Whateley Universe: A common tactic against people with tails.
- Imp's Berserk Button is having her tail pulled, and it's been cut off a few times, which hurts a lot. Likely also related to how it's a spot that also has Fantastic Arousal.
- Dragons in Wings of Fire have a weak point on their tails, which several characters take advantage of during battles.
- In Warrior Cats, cats seem to bite each other's tails in battle often. Kits also often practice pouncing on the tail of an unsuspecting older cat.
Puppet Shows
- In one episode of Dinosaurs, Baby notices something small and pink moving nearby, and stabs it with a fork. His moment of triumph is interrupted by the arrival of pain signals from his tail.
Video Games
- Dark Souls
- This is a way to get cool weapons (normally axes and swords). If you're fighting any giant boss or miniboss with a tail (usually a dragon), you can almost always cut it off and get a special weapon out of it. It also greatly reduces the range of their Tail Slap attack if they have one (which they usually do).
- The Saurians in Dragon's Dogma have tails that can be cut off.
- The Serapede in Gears of War is an Elite Mook that is mostly invincible with the exception of its weak point: the tail.
- Drillium from Grid Warrior could be damaged in the head or the glowing weak spot that is its tail, but its tail is the only part that lacks Damage Reduction armor.
- The Legend of Zelda
- The Moldorm in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds has a weak point (often shaped like a flower) in its tail.
- In The Legend of Zelda: Oracle Games, the miniboss Syger (the rolling tiger) has to be hit in the tail.
- In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, in order to defeat Ganon, Link must strike at its tail in order to weaken it enough to reach its head for the finishing blow. Ganon can turn quickly to hide its tail, so Link must stun it using various means, or just roll under its legs.
- In the N64 generation, Dodongos can only be killed if Link attacks their tails or throws a bomb at them. They later return with this vulnerability in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, though you're also given the option of shooting an arrow into their mouth.
- The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask presents two examples excluding the dodongos:
- The wolfos, humanoid wolf-like creatures; they can be attacked in other ways, but an attack in the tail kills them instantly. They even cover their tails with their hands if you aren't quick about it.
- The other example is Twinmold, two giant centipedes; their only weak points are the head and the tail.
- One of the penultimate tactics in the Monster Hunter games against any big monster with a tail is to attack the tail enough that it gets cut off/cracked/broken, among other parts of their body. Doing so rewards you with more rare items and creates more openings in the monster's defenses (like their tail attack's range get shorter, or they flinch more when an attack hits their tail stump.)
- Fortinbras from Onimusha: Warlords is normally invulnerable, forcing you to hack at his serpentine, coiled tail. After a certain amount of damage is dealt, Fortinbras will roar in pain and fall forward, allowing you to attack the boss' weakpoint, the eye on his head.
- Shantae and the Pirate's Curse has the Steel Maggot, a large, mechanical boss that is completely impervious to damage, save for a weak point that pops out of its tail after meeting certain conditions.
- Star Fox
- In Star Fox, the tail was one of two ways to damage Monarch Dodora, the other being its two heads. Just shooting it doesn't do damage, though, you needed to make them retract into its body, then shoot the body.
- In Star Fox Adventures, the boss Galdon is only vulnerable at his red-glowing tail
- In Star Fox: Assault, hitting a character's head or tail does additional damage. Especially Fox and Krystal are vulnerable to tail hits.
- Super Mario Galaxy and its sequel both have Dino Piranha bosses that Mario can defeat only by attacking the bulb at the end of their tail, knocking it up to strike their head.
- A variation occurs with Peewee Piranha in Super Mario Galaxy 2, where you must hit its butt.
- Also, Bowser from Super Mario 64, who is actually defeated by being grabbed by the tail and being thrown across the arena.
- The Crawltipedes in Terraria can only be damaged in the glowing spot in their tail.
Visual Novels
- Hatoful Boyfriend Holiday Star: "Yuuya, wait! Your tail! Your tail is burnt! It smells delicious!"
Web Videos
- Final Fighter A+ a flash parody of Final Fantasy has a disgruntled teacher create Bahamut out of a xerox machine as the final exam for a group of school students who refused to fail the class. The White Mage's Study Guido (scan) reveals that its Multiple Choose section (its tail) is its weak point. The Fighter, Pensuke, attacks its tail with his pencil (sword) chopping of the tip, only to reveal the weak point has defenses and he looses Grade Percent (HP). It takes 3 more guesses (attacks) at the multiple choice section (tail), dropping his grade (HP) into the negative, before he gets the right answer and Bahamut blows up violently, taking the school with him.
Western Animation
- This frequently happens to Mr. Cat from Kaeloo. In one case, he actually gets a bookshelf dropped on it.
- Looney Tunes: This happens sometimes to Sylvester.
- Once played with in a Magilla Gorilla cartoon. Magilla tries this on a bird and the bird thinks it won't work, but Magilla drops an entire bag of salt on the bird.
- In the third act of the Mr. Bogus episode "Bogus In Wilderland", Brattus rides on a water snake who tries to get him. Before the water snake can get Brattus, Bogus swings in and saves him, which results in the water snake biting his own tail instead.
- Happens to Felix the Cat in the episode "Balloon Blower Machine"
- Star Wars: The Clone Wars: In "Lair of Grievous" Nahdar Vebb cuts off Grievous' pet roggwart's tail in order to free his clone commander who is trapped in the claw at the end of it. It is too late however as the commander had already been bashed to death by the beast.
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012): In "Showdown", Splinter defeats Xever/Fishface by duping him into chomping on his own tail.
- In Tom and Jerry, there's hardly an episode where a tail isn't crushed, burned, severed, or hurt in any other way. Tom is the usual victim.
- There is the tale of salting a bird's tail so that it doesn't fly away. It has been Played With in many cartoons, such as the first Woody Woodpecker cartoon.
Real Life
- A Prince Rupert's Drop is a drop of glass with a bulbous "head" end and a wispy "tail" end formed by dropping molten glass into cold water. The "head" is incredibly durable, withstanding compressive forces of up to 15000 Newtons. The "tail" on the other hand is easily cut off and will cause the entire drop to disintegrate thanks to a chain reaction of bifurcation events.
- Cats will often do this when play-fighting, often with one cat flicking its tail around and another swatting at it. Particularly common with kittens. And, much like dogs, they aren't above chasing their own tails.

Tsitsipas beats Thiem in 3 sets to win ATP Finals title
LONDON — Stefanos Tsitsipas rallied to beat Dominic Thiem 6-7 (6), 6-2, 7-6 (4) on Sunday to become the youngest ATP Finals champion in 18 years and collect the biggest title of his career.
The 21-year-old Greek bounced back from dropping a tight first set in the final by racing out to a 4-0 lead in the second, and then held off his Austrian opponent’s comeback in the third.
Tsitsipas couldn’t capitalize on another early break and a 3-1 lead in the deciding set but won the last three points of the tiebreaker, clinching the win when Thiem sent a return wide.
He is the youngest champion at the ATP Finals since Lleyton Hewitt in 2001.
Thiem beat both six-time champion Roger Federer and five-time winner Novak Djokovic in the group stage but lost another big final after twice finishing runner-up to Rafael Nadal at the French Open.
It is the fourth year in a row that there is a first-time champion at the ATP Finals, following wins by Andy Murray in 2016, Gregor Dimitrov in 2017 and Alexander Zverev last year.
Earlier, French duo Nicolas Mahut and Pierre-Hugues Herbert won the doubles title by beating Raven Klaasen of South Africa and Michael Venus of New Zealand 6-3, 6-4.
