Each shaft (except the green one, which is too short) has a square cross shaped crosssection over much of its length. Connectors can be clipped to the shaft anywhere along this segment of the shaft.
Each blue spacer ring is half the thickness of a connector.
I've also seen a gray spacer which is equivalent to three blue spacers, but I don't own one and have not found them on the K'NEX mail order form.
| shaft | length in units of blue spacers |
|---|---|
| green | 0 |
| white | 6 |
| blue | 12 |
| yellow | 22 |
| red | 36 |
| gray | 56 |
By knowing the length of a shaft in terms of how many connectors can be arranged along its length, and the thicknesses of various gears and pulleys, we can determine how to arrange gears, pulleys, connectors and spacers along a shaft.
| component | thickness in units of blue spacers |
|---|---|
| small gear (blue) | 4 |
| medium gear (red) | 4 |
| large gear (yellow) | 3 |
| large pulley | 4 |
| small pulley | 2 |

WinSwitch menu item disappears
-
Bob
I am using WinSwitch 3.1 on Mac OS X 10.4.3. The WinSwitch icon disappears every 2-3 logins and I must run "Activate WinSwitch" to get WinSwitch to show up again. How can I get WinSwitch to stay where it belongs in the menu bar?
-
Greg Hurrell
I'd need more information to make an informed diagnosis; so here I'll just list off some possibilities:
It might be going away because you access the "Accounts" preference pane. When you do that Mac OS X can try to add the Apple one back into the menu bar.
Or failing that you might be logging into account for which the "Activate WinSwitch" script has not been run.
Or failing that you might have something else on your system which is preventing either WinSwitch or the "MenuCracker" helper (which allows third-party menu extras to appear in the menu bar); perhaps you have a conflict with an APE module?
Anything printed to the console?

Libyan force imposes ‘no-fly zone’ amid fight for capital
by The Associated PressCAIRO (AP) — One of the armed groups fighting for control of Libya’s capital says it is imposing a “no-fly zone” there.
The self-styled Libyan National Army’s announcement comes after two unmanned drone aircraft — one American and one Italian — were lost near the capital last week.
The LNA has said it shot down the Italian drone, while the U.S. military hasn’t given a reason for its drone’s loss.
Ahmed al-Mosmari, an LNA spokesman, said late Saturday that all flights over Tripoli and nearby towns are “prohibited without prior coordination.”
Oil-rich Libya is split between rival governments. A U.N.-supported but weak administration holds the capital, Tripoli. The LNA is allied with the government based in the country’s east.
The LNA has been trying to capture Tripoli since April.

WATCH: 'The Sonic the Hedgehog' movie has a new trailer and thankfully, it's better than the first
Cape Town - A new trailer for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie was released on Tuesday, and it features a redesigned titular character.
This comes after the film’s director took critic on board and made some much-needed changes after the initial trailer was released in earlier this year.
Writing about the trailer, The Guardian’s Keith Stuart said the cartoon character: "resembles a cheap knock-off Sonic toy your child might win at a fairground stand and then be terrified of".
The film features Jim Carrey as Dr Robotnik alongside the animated character and about the particularly nasty backlash, Jeff Fowler, the film’s director, tweeted: "The message is loud and clear... you aren’t happy with the design & you want changes. It’s going to happen."
SEE THAT TWEET HERE:
The film is due for release on 14 February 2020 in America.

The Central Store (CS) of KBase includes a large set of precomputed multiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees covering a diverse range of gene families. Most protein coding features of KBase are mapped to at least a few alignments and trees. Alignment and tree data can be retrieved using the Central Data Model API (CDMI) or CS command line scripts. Working with tree-based data can be challenging, however, because it requires working with tree structures and not just tab delimited file formats.
The KBase Phylogenetic Tree Service provides a set of query and tree manipulations methods that make it easier to retrieve and manipulate phylogenetic tree data objects and prepare them for further analysis. This tutorial will guide you through the basic steps of using the Perl client libraries of the Tree Service.
Trees in KBase are stored by default in Newick format, which is a succinct, text-based format for representing tree structures. Richer meta data associated with particular trees or nodes is stored directly in the CDM so that it is more amenable to search. Most phylogenetic trees are constructed from sequence alignments. When associated alignment data is available, KBase will store the relationship between trees and their alignments in the relationship named 'IsUsedToBuildTree'.
Perl code described in this tutorial is available here: tree_perl_client_basics.pl
All trees in the Central Data Store (CDS) can be retrieved by the standard Central Data Model API (CDMI). For instance, code to retrieve a set of trees by tree ID along with their associated newick data is shown below.
use Bio::KBase::CDMI::CDMIClient; my $cdmi = Bio::KBase::CDMI::CDMIClient->new_for_script(); my $tree_data = $cdmi->get_entity_Tree(["kb|tree.41"], ["status", "method", "parameters", "newick"]);
In this example, we create a new CDMI object, then use the standard pattern of 'get_entity' to retrieve data for a specific tree. Specifically, we ask to retrieve the 'status', 'method', 'parameters', and 'newick' attributes of the tree. This call to the CDMI returns the result in a hash structure that is shown below. (Note that the full newick string was omitted here for brevity).
$VAR1 = { 'kb|tree.41' => { 'parameters' => '--spr 4 -cat 20', 'newick' => '( .... );', 'status' => 'active', 'id' => 'kb|tree.41', 'method' => 'FastTree 2.1.2 SSE3' } };
The node labels of the newick string representation each reference a particular row ID of a sequence alignment (corresponding to a single sequence in an alignment). The row ID is unique within the alignment or tree, but the ID is not necessarily a KBase sequence or feature ID. Some alignments (Such as species trees) are composed of a concatenation of multiple sequences, so row IDs map instead to an AlignementRow object which in turn maps to actual protein or DNA sequences. Therefore, to search for the set of trees that contain a particular protein sequence directly through the CDMI, you must traverse several entities and relationships starting with 'ContainsAlignedProtein' and ending with 'Tree'.
The Tree service provides a shortcut for this type of query. To find a set of trees that include some segment of a given protein sequence, use the following code:
use Bio::KBase::Tree::Client; my $TreeService = Bio::KBase::Tree::Client->new("http://localhost:7047"); my $tree_ids=$TreeService->get_tree_ids_by_protein_sequence(["cf3c6b5c1f4f24f69866333d4daeb3c8"]);
The first line declares that we are using the Tree Service client library. The second line of code creates a new client object that links to the URL of the Tree service. The third line calls a method that returns a set of tree ids that contain at least some portion of the specified protein sequence ID. Like all protein sequnces in KBase, the protein sequence ID is the computed MD5 is identified by the MD5 hash of the sequence.
Alternatively, you can search for trees based on feature IDs with the code below. This method maps the feature ID to a protein sequence, then searches for any trees which were built from alignments including this protein sequence. Keep in mind that multiple features can encode for the exact same protein sequence.
$tree_ids=$TreeService->get_tree_ids_by_feature(["kb|g.371.peg.4539"]);
Whether you search based on a protein sequence ID or a feature ID, these Tree Service methods return a list of tree IDs indicating the set of trees built from alignments of the specified protein sequences. For example, the queries shown above generate results that will look similar to this:
$VAR1 = [ 'kb|tree.10094', 'kb|tree.10547', 'kb|tree.11177', 'kb|tree.11397', 'kb|tree.15024', 'kb|tree.20035', 'kb|tree.24782', 'kb|tree.9399' ];
As mentioned earlier, you can always use tree IDs with the CDMI to retrieve any information stored in the CDM. Alternatively, the Tree Service also provides a shortcut for simplifying simple lookups by aggregating properties about each of the trees, such as the total number of nodes and leaves. To obtain this information as a simple hash, use the following code:
my $tree_data=$TreeService->get_tree_data($tree_ids);
This code takes the list of tree IDs that you generated earlier, analyzes the structure of each tree, and assembles useful meta data. Note that because the actual structure of the tree is analyzed, this method may take an extended time to complete for very large trees or very long lists of IDs. Calling the above function returns a hash containing labeled information about each tree, in a data structure shown below. Only the first two trees in the list are reproduced here.
$VAR1 = { 'kb|tree.10094' => { 'source_id' => 'tree00010100', 'tree_contruction_method' => 'FastTree 2.1.2 SSE3', 'source_db' => 'SEED', 'status' => 'active', 'date_created' => '1344482065', 'leaf_count' => 2506, 'tree_construction_parameters' => '--spr 4 -cat 20', 'node_count' => 4963, 'alignment_id' => 'kb|aln.10094', 'type' => 'sequence_alignment' }, 'kb|tree.15024' => { 'source_id' => 'tree00015030', 'tree_contruction_method' => 'FastTree 2.1.2 SSE3', 'source_db' => 'SEED', 'status' => 'active', 'date_created' => '1344501012', 'leaf_count' => 1482, 'tree_construction_parameters' => '--spr 4 -cat 20', 'node_count' => 2952, 'alignment_id' => 'kb|aln.15024', 'type' => 'sequence_alignment' }, ... };
Similarly, you can retrieve meta information about a particular alignment by executing the following code:
my $tree_data=$TreeService->get_alignment_data(["kb|aln.15024"]);
which in this case produces the following result:
$VAR1 = { 'kb|aln.15024' => { 'source_id' => 'SEED', 'is_concatenation' => '0', 'n_rows' => '1482', 'n_cols' => '1929', 'source_db' => 'SEED', 'status' => 'active', 'alignment_protocol' => 'Sequences were identified with PSI-BLAST, trimmed to PSI-BLAST profile, aligned and treed', 'date_created' => '1344501012', 'sequence_type' => 'Protein', 'alignment_construction_method' => 'MAFFT v6.818b', 'tree_ids' => [ 'kb|tree.15024' ], 'alignment_construction_parameters' => '--op 1.53 --maxiterate 1000 --linsi' } };
The node names in a tree correspond to alignment row IDs, but these IDs alone do not always provide useful information. Therefore the Tree Service offers a function named 'get_tree' which returns the tree structure with the node names replaced by KBase IDs. The KBase IDs can map to different KBase entities depending on the options you provide. Here you will simply replace the names with protein sequence IDs with the following Perl code:
my $options = { newick_label=>"protein_sequence_id", newick_bootstrap=>"none", newick_distance=>"raw"}; my $tree = $TreeService->get_tree('kb|tree.15024', $options);
This method accepts an options hash which defines how you want the labels of the tree decorated. In this case, the node labels are set to be protein sequence ids. Additionaly, the options specify that any bootstrap values are left out, and that branch distances are retained in the original, raw format. For some trees, multiple protein sequences can be mapped to the same node, but the 'get_tree' method as shown above uses only the first protein sequence found. For this particular tree, however, this is fine because each alignment row and leaf corresponds to only a single protein sequence. You can determine this quickly by inspecting the 'is_concatenation' attribute of the specified 'Alignment' entitiy as shown above. If set to zero or false, then the alignment rows contain only single contiguous protein or DNA sequences.
Now that you have the structure of the tree in newick format, already with some useful information contained in each node label, you can perform a variety of operations to inspect the structure of the Tree. Here we will demonstrate just a few simple examples, but more complex functions offered by the Tree services are used in a similar way. As a simple example, first compute the number of nodes and leaves with the following code.
my $node_count = $TreeService->get_node_count($tree); my $leaf_count = $TreeService->get_leaf_count($tree); print "Node Count: ".$node_count."\nLeaf Count: ".$leaf_count."\n";
To invoke either of these methods, you simply pass the tree structure (represented as a newick string) into these methods. Note that the tree structure does not necessarily have to be built from the Tree Services! Any valid newick string can be stored as a string and used as input for these methods. The code above provides the following output. As expected, the node and leaf counts match the values returned previously for the tree with id 'kb|tree.15024' that was returned from the 'get_tree_data' method.
Node Count: 2952 Leaf Count: 1482
To show another example, you can extract a list of all the leaf names from a specified tree structure with this line of code:
my $leaf_labels = $TreeService->extract_leaf_node_names($tree);
As you might expect, the names of the nodes are MD5 hash values of protien sequences that we requested from the call to 'get_tree':
$VAR1 = [ '5fbe6b9e15365d9cd153749d555ade93', 'fa04ae7eae013ddba59333034de2635e', 'a15d7022f62ea0a6bb67b0bb917b1d7c', ... '4ab1cc69cf33b8cd016868dc30f1ac50', '1b86437371f55285b6c29fde1a029071' ];
Visualizing incredibly large phylogentic trees that are becoming ever more common in an intuitive and useful way is still an open computational biology challenge. The Tree Service does, however, provide a simple HTML-based renderer that is designed for generating quick displays which nonetheless can still be quite useful. To take the tree structure we retrieved previously and display it as an html file, run the following Perl code:
my $display_options = {}; my $tree_in_html = $TreeService->draw_html_tree($tree,$display_options); open (TREE_HTML_FILE, '>tree.html'); print TREE_HTML_FILE $tree_in_html; close (TREE_HTML_FILE);
In the first line of code, we setup an options hash that allows us to customize the display. The code above demonstrates the simplist option which uses default settings. The second line calls the Tree Service to render the HTML page using the tree structure as input. The result is returned as a string named '$tree_in_html'. The final three lines writes he tree string to a file in the current directory named 'tree.html'. You can then view the tree in any web browser, which will look something like this:
The last exercise of this tutorial is to combine the Tree Services with calls to the CDMI to perform a slightly more advanced operation. From the steps above, you have retrieved and analyzed a tree that is labeled by protein sequence IDs. That's great, but MD5 values are of course impossible to understand by eye. What if we wanted to display labels that more useful? Furthermore, what if we want those labels to include something custom that is not available from the 'get_tree' command? In this section, you will retrieve a tree with protein sequence IDs, look up feature IDs based on the protein sequences, then lookup a role that the feature ID is assigned to. Finally, you will use this information to label the leaves and display the tree.
First, combine several of the steps above that you used earlier to retrieve the tree of interest with protein sequence IDs, and extract the list of protein sequence IDs.
my $options = { newick_label=>"protein_sequence_id", newick_bootstrap=>"none", newick_distance=>"raw"}; my $tree = $TreeService->get_tree('kb|tree.15024', $options); my $leaf_labels = $TreeService->extract_leaf_node_names($tree);
Now that we have a list of protein sequence IDs, use the CDMI to identifiy the set of features that each protein sequence maps to with the following code:
my $fid_map = $cdmi->proteins_to_fids($leaf_labels);
You now have a hash object which maps every protein sequence to a set of feature ids. Again, remember that you will get multiple features for each sequence in most cases! The '$fid_map' object will be populated like this:
$VAR1 = { ... 'b5c09af56c3f0e0947daf70a67e9df7d' => [ 'kb|g.410.peg.2499', 'kb|g.8860.peg.2256' ], '00b2bea877f5266219768af92bbd31cb' => [ 'kb|g.892.peg.4350' ], 'db0321691efcb1612881c8958711fc6d' => [ 'kb|g.1285.peg.803', 'kb|g.21499.CDS.2292', 'kb|g.4409.peg.1154.rna.20.peg.2292' ], ... };
In this case, it doesn't really matter which feature ID we chose because we just want a simple reference for display purposes of the tree. In other cases, you may want to retrieve features only from specific genomes or organisms, in which case additional processing may be required. Since for this exercise, your choice does not matter, just select the first feature from each of the lists so that we have a single feature ID per node using the following code:
my @list_of_first_features = (); foreach my $leaf ( keys %{$fid_map} ) { push @list_of_first_features, %{$fid_map}->{$leaf}[0]; }
This code takes the first feature (element at position zero) of each set of features that was found and adds them to a simple list of all the features. With this list of features, we can now retrieve a set of roles that are assigned to each feature, again using the CDMI.
my $fid_to_role_map = $cdmi->fids_to_roles(\@list_of_first_features);
You are again in a similar situation as before in that each feature can map to multiple roles. For example, here is the partial output of the above call that is stored in the '$fid_to_role_map' object:
$VAR1 = { ... 'kb|g.8352.peg.3300' => [ 'putative secretion protein (HlyD family)', 'putative toxin/protease secretion system' ], 'kb|g.515.peg.1744' => [ 'hypothetical protein' ], 'kb|g.701.peg.764' => [ 'Secretion protein, HlyD family' ], ... };
Given your map from protein sequence IDs to feature IDs, and from feature IDs to roles, you will now assemble a map that connects protein sequence IDs to a label which includes the feature ID and role. Do this with the following code:
my $md5_to_new_label_map = {}; foreach my $leaf ( keys %{$fid_map} ) { my $fid = %{$fid_map}->{$leaf}[0]; my $role = $fid_to_role_map->{$fid}[0]; if($role) { $md5_to_new_label_map->{$leaf} = $fid.'---'.$role; } else { $md5_to_new_label_map->{$leaf} = $fid.'---NONE_FOUND'; } }
This block of code loops through every original leaf label in the protein sequence ID to feature ID map. For each of these IDs, you can then identifiy the first feature ID (in line 3), and then the first role listed (in line 4). If a role was identified, save it in the map. If a role wasn't defined, save a message indicating the missing role. Running this code will populate the '$md5_to_new_label_map', which we can finally use to rename the labels of the tree. Call the following method of the Tree Service to do so:
my $updated_tree = $TreeService->replace_node_names($tree, $md5_to_new_label_map);
The code above will take the mapping that you just created, and use it to update all of the matching labels of the tree. Instead of MD5 hash values, you now have a tree with your own custom labels. The very last step is to display the final tree as an HTML page as we did before:
my $display_options = {}; my $tree_in_html = $TreeService->draw_html_tree($updated_tree,$display_options); open (TREE_HTML_FILE, '>updated_tree.html'); print TREE_HTML_FILE $tree_in_html; close (TREE_HTML_FILE);
And that's it. Putting all these steps together will give you a script that can pull a phylogenetic tree from the CDM, determine a set of features and roles that correspond to each leaf node, and finally display the tree with custom labels that will look something like this:

IN THE DARK/Jonathan Richards
THE DISH Directed by Rob Sitch With Sam Neill, Patrick Warburton De Vargas PG-13 104 mnin
It's not that there are no good movies. It's just that the chains can't be bothered to show them. Take The Dish, a delightful Australian comedy that picked up nine nominations from the Film Critics Circle down under, and has been an audience favorite at festivals. UA opened it here last Friday at the De Vargas, with no critics' screening or advance notice. By the time you read this it will most likely be gone. UA, you see, only brought it in for a week to keep a few seats warm until they hit us next week with the $100 million video game adaptation Tomb Raider, which they plan to spread across three screens, two at the North and one at De Vargas.
This is not to knock Tomb Raider, which for all we know may be the best thing since the Cooking Channel. But wouldn't two screens do?
But back to The Dish. The tiny town of Parkes, New South Wales is, in 1969, the proud home of the Southern Hemisphere's largest radio telescope - a 1,000 ton dish that towers over a sheep paddock. When NASA launches Apollo 11 toward the moon, it needs a backup facility to relay the signals from Neil Armstrong's historic "giant leap for mankind" when its Goldstone, California dish is on the wrong side of the planet.
Parkes is agog. The Prime Minister (Bille Brown) is coming. The American Ambassador (John McMartin) is coming. The Mayor (Roy Billing) and his wife Maisie (Genevieve Mooy) are beside themselves with the honor, even if their sullen rebel of a teenage daughter Marie (Lenka Kripac) is not. And out at the facility, the small team of scientists led by director Cliff Buxton (Sam Neill) and NASA overseer Al Burnett (Seinfeld's Patrick Warburton) is nervously preparing for its moment of history.
Director and co-writer Rob Sitch (The Castle) weaves the charm of a comedy of quirky small-town characters with the excitement of one of history's most world-uniting events, with 60 million people glued to their black-and-white televisions ("And do the people in India get to watch it?" sniffs Marie.) Neill anchors the movie with his tweedy, almost unflappable father-figure of a project director, and the rest of the cast is wonderful too. The movie is filled with little human things, some of them very real and understated, some of them played for character zaniness, but Sitch never crosses the line to comic condescension. Much of it is funny, some of it is thrilling, some of it brings a tear to the eye. It does have a few downside moments, such as having to listen to Oliver's "Good Morning, Starshine" warbling on the sound track, but it's a small price to pay.
If UA doesn't have the sense to hold The Dish over, keep an eye on The Screen over at CSF, where they'll be trying to get hold of it in the next few weeks.
The Screen, by the way, is going this week with a festival of Toto movies. No, not the little dog from Kansas, but the phenomenally popular Italian screen clown who at the height of his popularity in the '50s and '60s was regarded as one of cinema's greatest comics, on a par with Chaplin and Keaton. Toto was born in 1898 to impoverished gentility (he was a Neapolitan baron) but became a true aristocrat with his ascension to movie stardom after a successful career in Italian music hall, where he honed his comic persona, which was Chaplinesque, but also utterly and distinctively his own.
He was the titular character in a whole series of Toto comedies, a number of which will be at The Screen's festival and all of which are well worth seeing. But don't miss Big Deal on Madonna Street, in which Toto joins a cast headed by Vittorio Gassman and Marcello Mastroianni to pull off a jewel heist in Rome. This classic 1958 comedy, directed by Mario Monicelli, has been unsuccessfully copied a couple of times in American cinema, most recently by Woody Allen as Small Time Crooks. The Screen will be showing it at 7:15 on Saturday and Monday evenings, with a 3:00 matinee on Sunday afternoon.

But after he went 1-14 in the 1992 US Championships, a rather unkind joke was going around the Manhattan Chess Club..."Shirazi wanted to prove that his 1984 performance wasn't a fluke!" |
|
| May-07-09 | | Marmot PFL: This game as well as any demonstrates the power of the Sicilian. White seems psychologically beaten from the start. <AnalyzeThis> Strong master from Boston. Vas Rajlich studied chess with him while learning about computers at MIT. |
|
| Dec-17-11 | | King Death: I witnessed this fiasco, and it was played in 1984, like others have said, not 1986. |

| May-01-12 | | DanielBryant: <Riverbeast> Why didn't he just withdraw? |
|
| Feb-10-14 | | yureesystem: lol Fellow kibitzers, you have no idea how funny this is. Shirazi could be a rook down and beat most strong masters and sometime a IM. But to lose this way, he was completely asleep. Zzzzz. It is important for chess player to drink his coffee in the morning, otherwise, BLUNDER big time. |
|
| Feb-11-14 | | Granny O Doul: A witness to the game told me Shirazi did not actually resign till some moves later. Shirazi himself told me that he did not overlook ...Qe5+ but some other move a moves down the line. I guess it felt rude to me to ask just what. |
|
Feb-11-14
| | Phony Benoni: <Granny O'Doul> Well, after <6.Ne2 Qxa1 7.Nec3>: click for larger viewBlack's queen is trapped, and if White had time for Ba3-Qc1-Bb2 he would be OK. But Black can surely break that up without too much trouble. |
|
| Feb-11-14 | | Cheapo by the Dozen: <Phony Benoni>,
I think just 7 ... a5 suffices to break out. In particular, 8 Ba3 ab. |
|
| Mar-18-14 | | Poisonpawns: Obviously;Black has developed his Queen too early and white didn`t want to entertain such rubbish. |
|
Mar-18-14
| | perfidious: <King Death: I witnessed this fiasco....> Lucky you. |
|
| Mar-26-14 | | LIFE Master AJ: One of the shortest <real> master games ever ... to think it happened in a U.S. Championship is almost too bizarre. |
|
| Mar-26-14 | | LIFE Master AJ: J L Watson vs K Shirazi, 1979 Shirazi beating Watson.
Before his health problems, many masters thought John Watson was probably close to/over GM strength. |
|
| Jan-31-15 | | Howard: The reason Shirazi was in the 1984 U.S.
championship was because he was seeded, due to his winning the Church's Fried Chicken competition the year before. |
|
| Apr-11-15 | | Howard: THIS game was the shortest decisive one in a U.S. championship, rather than the one yesterday in the U.S. championship between So and Akobian. |
|
Dec-28-15
| | Moose Malloy: When Roman Dzhindihashvilli saw this and watched the players sign the scoresheets and rise from the board, he cracked "Now they are going to analyze the game!" |
|
| Dec-29-15 | | Granny O Doul: Though Shirazi did twice flirt with an oh-for-US Championship performance, note that he finished at +1 in the 1986 edition. |
|
Dec-29-15
| | An Englishman: Good Evening: In response to some earlier comments, I witnessed the game and the score is correct; Shirazi did resign after 5...Qe5. Shirazi was an amazing player to watch in the Eighties because he was a legitimate IM-level talent who wrested victories in some of the most incomprehensibly wild games ever played, but who could also play games like this. |
|
| May-11-17 | | ChessHigherCat: <An Englishman: Shirazi was an amazing player to watch in the Eighties because he was a legitimate IM-level talent who wrested victories in some of the most incomprehensibly wild games ever played, but who could also play games like this.> Exactly, he was one of the most amazing blitz players I've ever seen, too, but I think part of the problem is that he used to stay up all night playing backgammon in that period. |
|
May-11-17
| | perfidious: The two times I met Shirazi at the board featured a Vienna Gambit and an offbeat line in a Symmetrical English. He was a most interesting player, if of uneven form--wish I had caught him when he was not quite on par. (laughs) |
|
Apr-30-20
| | wordfunph: from NICM 2020 01..
<He mentioned one game in particular, a loss to Jack Peters in five moves, which remains the shortest in U.S. Championship history (1.e4 c5 2.b4 cxb4 3.a3 d5 4.exd5 Qxd5 5. axb4 Qe5+, 0-1 - ed.). 'I had this same position the night before blitzing with Dzindzichashvili - ten times I played this against Dzindzichashvili and I missed this move!' (Evidently so did Dzindzichashvili - DLM) 'And in the tournament, I was playing a tempo - I was just out of my mind. I hadn't slept, I had played for 20 hours or something.'> |

"Work was play, and he loved a good game." – Cheryl Henson
In January 2005, The Jane Henson Foundation and The Jim Henson Legacy generously donated videos and funding to support the creation of what is now known as The Jim Henson Works at the University of Maryland. This collection makes available to UMD’s community of students, scholars, and visitors over 70 digital videos spanning 35 years of Henson’s groundbreaking work in television and film. These full-length videos are available for viewing at public computer stations in the Michelle Smith Performing Arts Library, McKeldin Library, and Hornbake Library.
The University provides a wide range of research opportunities into Henson's work and puppetry in the performing arts. It also hosts exhibits and websites, develops interactive interpretive content, and takes part in celebrations of Jim Henson's life.
From the very beginning, Jim Henson and his Muppets combined play and learning through singing, dancing, and acting, all with the timeless use of puppets as performance objects. It is ideal this collection resides within the Michelle Smith Performing Arts Library at the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center, as the Center is a leading academic institution training future performance professionals and scholars. Each resident department of the Center will find its own use for such a collection: the Theatre Department now hosts a Jim Henson Artist in Residence and offers courses in puppetry, the School of Music offers various classes in popular music and culture, and the Dance Department is known for its cutting edge performance program where multidisciplinary projects are encouraged. Yet, elsewhere on campus, this collection will also be of use to UMD’s American Studies program where studies in popular culture and humor are offered.
Really, the possibilities are endless.

Taison ban for reacting to racist abuse questioned by Shakhtar Donetsk coach
Shakhtar coach: "Do I agree with Taison's suspension? It's strange to see the offended being punished."
Shakhtar Donetsk coach Luis Castro says it is "strange" midfielder Taison was banned after being subjected to racial abuse.
The Brazilian received a one-game ban from the Ukrainian FA after reacting to racist abuse by gesturing and kicking a ball at Dynamo Kiev fans on November 10.
Castro was asked about the matter as he arrived in England ahead of his side's Champions League Group C clash with Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday.
"Racism is a very sensitive subject," Castro said. "It's an issue not just in football but in every aspect of our society. It does bother us and it's one of the main plagues in the whole world. There is no other way to put it into words.
"Every one of us feels sadness from what happened but we know humans are erratic beings. People do make mistakes here and there, some worse than others.
"We all agree that racism should end, like child labour, domestic violence, wars and many others plagues.
"On this specific case, we should not tolerate this in football. Do I agree with Taison's suspension? It's strange to see the offended being punished.
"But I have to accept the rules. It doesn't matter if I agree or not, maybe it does matter before rules are written.
"Right now I just have to accept it, support my player and try to help him not to feel this distinction that some people want to impose. Let's move on with our squad, a place that everyone has the same rights."

版本 说明
Prior to 5.2.2, a previously registered extendedclass had to be
5.2.2 unregistered before being able to register a new class extending the same
baseclass.
范例
Example #1 Adding a new method to DOMElement to ease our code
appendChild(new myElement($name));
}
}
class myDocument extends DOMDocument {
function setRoot($name) {
return $this->appendChild(new myElement($name));
}
}
$doc = new myDocument();
$doc->registerNodeClass('DOMElement', 'myElement');
// From now on, adding an element to another costs only one method call !
$root = $doc->setRoot('root');
$child = $root->appendElement('child');
$child->setAttribute('foo', 'bar');
echo $doc->saveXML();
?>
以上例程会输出：
Example #2 Retrieving elements as custom class
nodeValue;
}
}
$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->loadXML("text in child");
$doc->registerNodeClass("DOMElement", "myElement");
$element = $doc->getElementsByTagName("child")->item(0);
var_dump(get_class($element));
// And take advantage of the __toString method..
echo $element;
?>
以上例程会输出：
string(9) "myElement"
text in child
Example #3 Retrieving owner document
When instantiating a custom DOMDocument the ownerDocument property will refer
to the instantiated class, meaning there is no need (and in fact not possible)
to use DOMDocument::registerNodeClass() with DOMDocument
loadXML("text in child");
$child = $doc->getElementsByTagName("child")->item(0);
// The current owner of the node is myDOMDocument
var_dump(get_class($child->ownerDocument));
// Import a node from myDOMDocument
$newdoc = new myOtherDOMDocument;
$child = $newdoc->importNode($child);
// The new owner of the node has changed to myOtherDOMDocument
var_dump(get_class($child->ownerDocument));
?>
以上例程会输出：
string(13) "myDOMDocument"
string(18) "myOtherDOMDocument"

The War for Drugs
by ROBERT KAHNPardon me for kicking a hemisphere when it’s down, but our government has been willfully ignorant about Mexico for decades, and so have our newspapers. This week’s slaughter of nine women and children in Sonora did not “shock” Mexico. It was business as usual.
The Mexican government knows who the drug cartel leaders are, and where they are. It could kill them all in a week if it wanted — but it doesn’t want to.
Would you kill the goose that laid golden eggs right into your bank account?
I could name names, but I ain’t gonna, because I don’t want to die yet. But when we talk about a drug war in Mexico, we must understand that it’s not a war against drugs: It’s a war for drugs.
This war is waged not just by the drug cartels, but by the Mexican Army, the Federal Judicial Police and State Judicial Police.
My information comes from a quarter-century of living on the border, most of it as a news reporter or editor, including a stint as a news correspondent in Mexico.
When it comes to our phony drug war, only the names and death count change.
I remember the day a friendly man approached me at a newsstand in Sonora and said in fluent English: “Hello, Robert. How did your interview with ***** go yesterday?”
“Excuse me?” I said, bundle of newspapers and magazines under an arm.
“Give my regards to ***** when you see him tomorrow.”
“Who are you?”
The man smiled. He was about my age. He looked like the old comedian Avery Schreiber. Nice suit but no tie. “I’m the guy who’s assigned to you,” he said. “Just so you know.”
I liked the guy. He seemed honest — not threatening at all. Just wising me up.
Right around then, Mexico staged a giant raid on two ranches in Sonora, with machine-gunners rappelling down from army helicopters and all. They arrested two ranching families who had nothing to do with drugs. In between their two ranches was a ranch that belonged to the Caro Quinteros. Untouched. What a coincidence.
Here’s another one.
During my stint as a border editor, a certain fellow in northern Mexico was supposed to be the Most Wanted Man around, after a massacre in a clinic and godnose how many tons of drugs smuggled. Well, an unimpeachable [sic] source saw our Most Wanted Man at [a public sports event] in *****. The drug lord stood up and stretched his arms out, palms up, looked around, and shrugged.
“Here I am,” he was saying. “Who wants to catch me?”
Here’s one more. After the Mexican army murdered San Antonio Express-News reporter Philip True in 1998, after he stumbled onto a drug plantation the army was guarding, the United States complained — about the dead U.S. citizen, not about the Mexican army guarding a poppy plantation. So Mexico arrested a couple of poor farmers and tortured them until they confessed.
I could go on, but why?
I love the Mexican people and their land. But I do not love its government and I hate its police.
After the massacre of women and children this week on the Sonora-Chihuahua border, Donald Trump offered to send the U.S. Army to Mexico to fight the drug war.
If proof were needed at this late date of Trump’s abysmal ignorance, there it is.
The U.S. government must immediately cut off all aid to all of Mexico’s security forces, and redirect the money to programs for poor people, above all in Southern Mexico.
That would help reduce emigration.
And since most of the murders committed in Mexico come from guns that were bought in the United States, some reasonable security checks on gun purchases here would probably reduce the murder rate in Mexico, and here too.
Sounds a hell of a lot better idea than sending the Seventh Cavalry into Mexico.
(In memory of the late Chuck Bowden.)

When Kin and I chose the name “Tech Gypsies” for our business, it was a gesture towards the life we found ourselves living: one on the road. We travel a lot “for business,” and it’s important to us that even this business travel still functions (sometimes, hopefully) “for pleasure.”
Since we started the company, we've traveled a lot; and then we became sorta stationary.
This summer, we’ve found ourselves once again traveling almost non-stop, this time for different reasons, with different missions, for different ends.
In May, Kin and Isaiah started Drone Recovery, traveling around the Pacific Northwest in an attempt to kick the latter’s opiate addiction.
A few weeks earlier, Kin and I had started a podcast, prompting me to give this website a refresh. But I haven’t blogged here since.
Now we are in the middle of another lengthy outing, one that makes me hum Simon & Garfunkel and "all gone to look for america."
While we're searching, I want to do a better job highlighting here on this site the photos we take, the sites we see, the food we eat, the joys and the struggles we face while living and working on the road. Much of this falls under our work to “reclaim” our data from websites we don’t own (such as Yelp or Flickr or Facebook).

ChocolateChip-UI version 3.5.3
Templates
ChocolateChip-UI provides its own template module. Templates are essential for efficiently creating markup in your app with dynamic content. There are many template engines out there. They are not all equal. In fact, some of the more famous and popular ones are down right slow. ChocolateChip-UI is not the fastest, but it's faster than most. And it's small and part of the framework.
If you prefer another template solution, feel free to use it. Be aware that some template engines require jQuery, mostly for Ajax or DOM access. If the template engine you want to use has a jQuery dependency, you might be able to make some slight modification to the part that checks for jQuery to get it to work with ChocolateChip.
By their very nature, single page apps will not have complicated template needs, so ChocolateChip-UI's template module should fill the bill.
There are several ways you can create a template. You can define it as a string assigned to a variable. You can assign it to the $.templates
object. You can define it inside a script tag. You could even store you templates as an external file that you import as a script tag or though an Ajax request. Do what makes sense for you.
Creating and rendering a template is a three stage process. First you write the template. Then you must parse it. This turns the string template into a function that can output markup matched up with data passed to it. And finally you execute that parsed template function with data and output the result to the page:
// This assumes that masterData is an array
// of people's first and last names.
// Define the template:
var masterTemplate =
'
[[= data.firstName ]] [[= data.lastName ]]
';
// Prase the template:
var myTmpl8 = $.template(masterTemplate);
// Loop through the data and output the template:
masterData.forEach(function(ctx) {
// Pass the current chunk of data
// and output the result to the document:
$('.master ul').append(myTmpl8(ctx));
});
ChocolateChip uses paris of square brackets as delimiters: [[ ... ]]
. These allow you to include executable JavaScript in your templates. The following template would do nothing but launch an alert when the variable name is present:
var template1 = '[[ if (data.name) { ]]\
[[ alert('You have a name!) ]]\
[[ } ]]';
To output a variable into your template's markup you use an equals sign after the opening square brackets pair: [[= ... ]]
.
Creating Templates
The most straightforward way to create a template is to define it as a string. If the template will be more than one line, you will need to put a back space on each line, except for the last. Because of the way the parsing is done, to refer to a data variable in the template, you need to use a name as the base. The default is data
. You can use any other name that makes sense for the data you are using and pass that name to the parse function as the last parameter.
// Expected data: { "firstName" : "Joe", "lastName" : "Bodoni"}
// Define a template and assign it to the variable 'myTemplate':
var myTemplate = '

[[= data.lastName ]], [[= data.firstName ]]

';
You could also just assign it to ChocolateChip's $.template object:
$.template.myTemplate = '

[[= data.lastName ]], [[=data.firstName ]]

';
To parse the template we just pass it to the $.template function:
var parsedTemplate = $.template(myTemplate);
Or:
var parsedTemplate = $.template($.templates.myTemplate);
You could also use the $.template object as a cache for you parsed templates. You would do this during load time. The advantage of stored pre-parsed templates in this way is that they are globally available are ready to use at any time:
// Define the temlpate:
var myTemplate = '

[[= data.lastName ]], [[= data.firstName ]]

';
// Parse it and cache it in $.templates:
$.templates.parseTempate = $.template(myTemplate);
Custom data names
When parsing a template, you can also define a custom name for the data in your template. You would also need to use that custom name in your template or it will generate and error:
// Use 'user' instead of 'data':
$.template.myTemplate = '

[[= user.lastName ]], [[= user.firstName ]]

';
// Provide 'user' as custom name when parsing:
var parsedTemplate = $.template(myTemplate, 'user');
Presuming we had a JSON object for students like this, we can easily put together a template to output it:
var studentObj = {
"students": [
{
"firstName":"Joe",
"lastName": "Bodoni",
"major":"Physics"
},
{
"firstName":"Suzy",
"lastName": "Que",
"major":"Chemistry" },
{
"firstName":"John",
"lastName": "Doe",
\"major":"Mathematics"
}
],
"university" : "Palo Alto",
"year": "1950"
}
// 'student' will represent each iteration of the "Students" array above:
var studentsTpl = '

[[= student.lastName]], [[= student.firstName ]]

[[= student.major ]]

';
var parsedStudentTmp = $.template(studentsTpl, 'student');
var list = $('#studentList');
// Iterated over the Students array:
studentObj.students.forEach(function(ctx) {
// Append template with data:
list.append(parsedStudentTmp(ctx));
});
Using a Script Tag as a template
As mentioned earlier, you can store you template in a script tag. To get the template, you use a selector to get the tag and then grab its text content as the template. Remember to give the tag a custom type. This will prevent the browser from showing the contents of the script tag in the document. Browsers ignore the contents of script tags with an unknown type. We recommend using 'text/x-template', but you can use whatever you want, as long as it is not a know type. In the example below we gave the script and id so we can easily get it.

var studentTemplate = $('#studentTemplate').text();
var parsedStudents = $.template(studentTemplate, 'student');
var list = $('#studentList');
// Iterated over the Students array:
studentObj.students.forEach(function(ctx) {
// Append template with data:
list.append(parsedStudentTmp(ctx));
});
JavaScript in Templates
ChocolateChip allows you to execute JavaScript code inside your template while it is being rendered. You could use this for some type of boolean check:
// Supposing the following data structure: songs = [ { title: 'whatever', artist: 'whoever', album: 'something', description: 'blah blah', genre: 'pop' }, etc. ];
var songs = "
\
[[ if (song.genre === 'pop') { ]]\

\

[[= song.title ]]
\

[[= song.artist ]]
\

[[= song.detail ]]
\

\
[[ } else { ]]\

\

No Match
\

\
[[ } ]]";
Or, as a script template:


Right before the climatic battle of a story, The Hero turns to his friends and says that they don't need to come with him — if they want to turn back, this is their last chance, and he won't stop them.
The hero's friends will often respond with an inspiring speech that how they've come too far to abandon the cause now, how the hero is crazy if he thinks he can do this alone, and so on. A member of the group actually accepting the offer is almost unheard of.
This is separate from Line in the Sand, as it is not always an explicit suicide mission, and the hero is not looking for Red Shirt volunteers. Rather, the hero knows he's about to do something dangerous, and doesn't want to endanger his friends if they aren't willing.
When the hero's offer is taken, it's Screw This, I'm Outta Here! or Opt Out. See also This Is the Final Battle. Sister Trope to Last Chance to Quit and Line in the Sand.
Examples:
- ''Digimon Adventure 02: Before sending the DigiDestined on the Digimon World Tour, Gennai says "If anyone's squeamish, you can back out now."
- In Demon Knights, as part of their centuries-long quest for the Holy Grail, Shining Knight has repeatedly been told by Merlin that they have the opportunity to quit, and that continuing will always require terrible personal sacrifices. Thus far, Ystin has declined these opportunities.
- In The Incredibles Mr. Incredible tells his family to stay behind before going to fight the Omnidroid Killer Robot. His wife will have none of that. Leads to him admitting that he isn't strong enough to lose them again. (Note that their kids had no chance to say whether they wanted to go too before the Omnidroid attacked them.)
- The Serenity example in Line in the Sand also falls under this trope.
Mal: Anybody doesn't wanna fly with me anymore, this is your port of harbor.
- In Street Fighter, there's a "we can go home" speech along this lines.
- In Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, after Kirk and Co. bust McCoy out from Starfleet detention and beam aboard the empty Enterprise. Scotty has rigged the ship to be fully automated, and Kirk decides that he will not ask the rest of them to sacrifice their careers. Of course, being the True Companions they are, they refuse.
Kirk: Gentlemen...may the wind be at our backs. Stations please.
- Picard offers a way out (not from the mission itself, but from the court-martial that will almost certainly follow his direct defiance of orders) in Star Trek: First Contact.
Picard: "I'm about to commit a direct violation of our orders. Any of you who wish to object should do so now. It will be noted in my log."Data: "Captain, I believe I speak for everyone here, sir, when I say... to Hell with our orders."
- Pinocchio gives Jiminy Cricket a chance to leave when he goes out to find Geppetto after finding out he had been swallowed by a whale. Jiminy's reply? "Goodbye?! I may be live bait down there, but I'm with you!"
- In The Great Muppet Caper, as Kermit hatches the plan to catch the jewel thieves who framed Miss Piggy, he warns everybody of the possible dangers and gives them a chance to Opt Out. Everybody starts to back out until Fozzie lays in one heck of a guilt trip.
- Toy Story 2
Stinky Pete: It's your choice, Woody. You can go back, or you can stay with us and last forever.
- At multiple points in The Revengers, Benedict tells the six convicts that their service to him is done, and that they can go if they wish. They always stay, claiming that they have nowhere better to go.
- At the end of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, Harry tells Ron and Hermione that they don't have to go with him to find Voldemort's Horcruxes. They, of course, turn down the offer.
- This is a call back the the pre-climactic scene of the first book, where right before Harry leaves to follow Snape, he tells Ron and Hermione that there's still time to turn back.  Hermione even references this conversation in the aforementioned scene from the sixth book, saying they've had "time" five years in fact to turn back, and they haven't so far.
- In The Bible, Naomi says this to her two widowed daughters-in-law, Orpah and Ruth. Orpah takes her up on it, Ruth refuses.
- Deconstructed in Heretics of Dune, when this is explained to be a common use of Reverse Psychology to boost morale amonge the troops.
- In Proven Guilty, Harry Dresden gives his allies a line like this after he finds out that he has to invade Arctis Tor, stronghold of the Winter Queen for the rescue mission, a much, much more dangerous endeavor than he'd been expecting. He barely gets the sentence out before everyone steps up to go with him anyway.
Harry: A bolt of warmth, fierce with joy and pride and gratitude, flashed through me like sudden lightning. I don't care about whose DNA recombined with whose. When everything goes to hell, the people who stand beside you without flinching- they are your family. And they were my heroes.
- Subverted in one episode of NCIS, in which Tony asks for volunteers for a dangerous mission, remarking that no one will think less of those who opt out. Palmer asks, "Really?" To which Tony replies, "No, they probably will. At least, I will."
- Played with in "The Five Doctors". When Borusa finally gets to claim Rassilon's immortality for himself, Rassilon appears and asks him if that's what he wants. When the errant Lord President says "yes," Rassilon says, "Even now, it is not too late to turn back." If you read between the lines enough, Rassilon is indirectly and subtly nudging Borusa to turn back. Why? Claiming immortality put him into an And I Must Scream position, in which his face accompanied the many others who came before him, decorating the sides of Rassilon's funereal dais.
- The king's speech before the battle of Agincourt in Henry V would be the most classic of examples.
Rather proclaim it, Westmorland, through my hostThat he which hath no stomach to this fight,Let him depart.
- Last Scenario.
- Alter A.I.L.A. Genesis.
- Subverted at the beginning of Maniac Mansion. (If you pick Bernard.)
Dave:This could be real dangerous. If anyone wants to back out...
 This is Sandy we're talking about. - Also subverted in Army Men R.T.S., when Sarge tells his troops that if they want to back out now, he won't stop them. Cue Hoover attempting to sneak off and Sarge yells at him to "get back here!"
- Nate Drake of Uncharted attempts to do this near the climax of every game. He sees that he's in way over his head and tells his companions that it would be just fine if they all bailed right then and there. Naturally, the companions refuse and on with the climax.
- Joel from The Last of Us (made by the same company who did Uncharted), attempts to do this with Ellie. After all they had been through to get to the Fireflies, he turns to her in the last leg of their journey and tells her that they don't have to do this ( give Ellie to the Fireflies in hopes for a cure.), the pair of them can turn around and go back to where his brother lives and stay there. Ellie, of course, decides to keep going, otherwise it would have made their suffering entirely pointless.
- Lee Everett does this to his team in Telltale's Season 1 of The Walking Dead. Bitten and trying to find Clementine, who had been kidnapped, he tells them that they don't have to come with him. Depending on how you acted around them, they'll either accept and not go, or refuse (willingly or reluctantly) and go anyway.
- On the night before raid on the Northern Crater in Final Fantasy VII, Cloud tells the party that they should take the time to tie up any loose ends and do what they want to do before they prepare for the Final Battle and he won't hold it against them if they decide to not come along. Cloud and Tifa spend the night out in the field together for what could be their final moment together and when they arrive on the airship, there isn't anybody around. They quickly find out that all their friends want to join them anyway and defeat Sephiroth once and for all.
- Errant Story: Sarine pulls it on Jon, who of course ignores her.
- In the Arthur, King of Time and Space parody of Serenity, Arthur-as-Mal tells his crew they can turn back if they want to avoid spoilers for the end of the movie.
- My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Inverted in "Princess Twilight Part 2". When the Mane Six and Spike venture into the dangerous Everfree Forest to investigate why it's expanding uncontrollably, they are attacked by a Cragodile. After defeating it, Applejack suggests (and the other ponies agree) that Twilight should go back to Ponyville and let the others continue the mission without her, because she is the only princess left in Equestria at the moment and they can't afford to lose her.

With manual updates, you control what data you use to update the indicator. For instance, you can use the 3:30 PM price in your daily moving average instead of the daily closing price or you can use the maximum temperature of the past 10 cloudy days.
To update an indicator, call the Update
method. The Update
method expects one of the following arguments:
IndicatorDataPoint
QuoteBar
TradeBar
To view what data type you should use to update an indicator, see Supported Indicators.
You can update indicators at any point in your algorithm, but the most common places are during the OnData
event handler or during a consolidation event handler.

FYI: Skin Health Benefits from Spices
Let food be your makeup
On my instagram, @hungrygreenhippo, I introduced a tea that I make daily. It is simply hot water with 3 spices added to it. These spices are: turmeric, coriander, and cumin!This tea is a lifesaver. It has kept my acne down, and for that, I am thankful. I literally do not have to wear cover-up anymore or try to hide my red acne spots with hair. These three spices are highly beneficial, and here is why
- Turmeric: Turmeric helps fight acne because of its antiseptic and antibacterial properties. It is common in the Indian culture to rub turmeric paste on one’s skin to get rid of discoloration, acne, and to make one’s overall complexion glow. Turmeric is also helpful in the reduction of wrinkles and dark circles! Also, from personal experience, turmeric mixed with lemon makes a GREAT exfoliator. If you want to know more about this mask, please comment, and I can make a tutorial! :)
- Coriander: Coriander is known to help fight problems such as eczema, rashes, and inflammation.
- Cumin: Cumin helps fight aging because it contains high amounts of Vitamin E. If you suffer from itchy, burning skin then a glass of water with cumin mixed in it helps reduce this burning and itching sensation.
Who needs expensive skin care treatments?


GETTING TO KNOW YOU A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1999 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): ** 1/2
"When things go bad in a family, they go bad quickly," teenage daughter Judith (Heather Matarazzo) says with a fatalistic acceptance. "Like fruit, it can be good and then be rotten in an hour." The problem with Judith's home life is that, no matter how much she might like to think otherwise, it has always been in a state of decay.
Writer and director Lisanne Skyler, whose background is in documentaries, gathered her material for GETTING TO KNOW YOU from several of Joyce Carol Oates's short stories.
Judith's brother, Wesley (Zach Braff), is about to leave for college. A bright, hard-working kid who could recite the periodic table backwards, he has become Judith's surrogate parent. Due to a family quarrel gone bad, the mother is in a mental hospital, and the father just got out of jail and doesn't want to talk to either of his two kids ever again.
In a telling flashback, the two teenagers look through the family photo album, which is filled with pictures taken mainly before they were born. Judith allows as how her mom's camera has been broken. Of course, over a decade is a long time in the shop.
Called "The Marvelous McIntyres" in their heyday -- to the extent that they ever had one -- their parents were wannabe stars who went from one low-paying temporary job to another, each of which was a subject of derision. This forced the family to live an itinerate lifestyle, moving from town to town. Sometimes they'd move just because the parents felt like it.
As Judith, Heather Matarazzo gets her first meaty role since 1996's WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE -- my absolute favorite film that year. Matarazzo is a master at the reaction shot, but she still hasn't quite learned how to setup scenes on her own.
The movie is set mainly in a seedy bus station inhabited mainly by a cross-section of the lower economic strata. Some hang out there, semi-permanently, but others are actually there to catch a bus.
While Judith and Wesley wait for their respective buses, they meet Jimmy (Michael Weston), who was a high school classmate of Wesley's. Or was he?
Jimmy is the local eavesdropper.  But like a screenwriter in the making, he just needs to overhear a single sentence, and he can concoct an elaborate story for them, which the movie shows as a flashback.
One of Jimmy's stories is about a woman who meets and falls for a flashy gambler at an Atlantic City casino.
Always kind of interesting, but rarely compelling, GETTING TO KNOW YOU never quite gels. It drags frequently, probably because the director is still learning her craft.
 The premise of a character who makes up stories was done recently and better in THE CHAMBERMAID. Only in the sad tale of the dysfunctional family does the movie deliver much emotional payoff. But this is a well-traveled theme in modern movies, and GETTING TO KNOW YOU doesn't break any new ground. A pleasant but predictable film, it does contain likeable performances by the talented Weston and Matarazzo.
GETTING TO KNOW YOU runs 1:36. It is not rated but probably would be PG-13 for mature themes, language and a little violence.

Charity bike rides are a great way for an organization to raise money through individual efforts. The problem is donations end during the ride—the most compelling part of the experience. We needed a way to share the riders' efforts with their donors to compell them to donate more.
We created Sagwag to drive donors through social media to an online community where they could experience the ride in real time and make donations to give the rider the push they needed. Using an integrated team made up of myself and two designers, we used close collaboration and an iterative process to crank out an alpha release within a 3 week cycle.
We tested Sagwag out as an alpha release during the Courage Classic, a three-day charity ride that benefits the Children’s Hospital. The riders that activated their social networks were able to raise an additional 20% in pledges on the day of the event through Sagwag.
For this fast-turnaround project I acted in multiple roles as UX architect, project manager and rails developer. The amazing UI design was created by Jerry Stafford, Art Director and Ben Wallace, designer, at Pure.
