Introduction to fftw
FFTW is a C subroutine library for computing the discrete Fourier
transform (DFT) in one or more dimensions, of arbitrary input size,
and of both real and complex data (as well as of even/odd data,
i.e. the discrete cosine/sine transforms or DCT/DST).
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-9.1
platform.

User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/fftw
Installation of fftw
Note
We build fftw three times for different libraries in different
numerical precisions: the default double precision floating
point, the older 32-bit (single precision) version named float
which sacrifices precision for speed, and the long double which
offers increased precision at the cost of slower execution.
The first build is for double precision arithmetic. Install
fftw by running the following
commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--enable-shared \
--enable-threads \
--enable-sse2 \
--enable-avx &&
make
To test the results, issue: make
check. On 32-bit systems, the tests can take
substantially longer than they would on 64-bit machines.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
Now build single precision:
make clean &&
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--enable-shared \
--enable-threads \
--enable-sse2 \
--enable-avx \
--enable-float &&
make
As the root
user:
make install
Finally, build long double precision:
make clean &&
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--enable-shared \
--enable-threads \
--enable-long-double &&
make
As the root
user:
make install
Command Explanations
--enable-shared
: Use shared
libs instead of static libs.
--enable-threads
: This
enables libfftw3_threads.so
to be
compiled. It is used by e.g. the gimp plugin from G'MIC.
--enable-float
: This
enables building the library that uses single precision floating
point arithmetic. It is faster but less precise than the default
double precision library. The library will be called libfftw3f.so
needed by PulseAudio-13.0.
--enable-long-double
: This
enables building the library that uses higher precision long-double
floating point arithmetic. The library will be called libfftw3l.so
.

Unbreakable Reviewed by Christian Pyle Written and Directed by M. Night Shyamalan Starring Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Robin Wright Penn, and Spencer Treat Clark Grade: C
Last year, writer/director Night Shyamalan rocketed from obscurity to the A-list with "The Sixth Sense," which won both critical and popular acclaim. This year, he hopes that lightning will strike twice by serving up another supernatural drama, "Unbreakable."  However, the current pic just doesn't work.
You wouldn't know it from the trailers, but "Unbreakable" is a superhero movie. It begins with a set of stats about comic-book collecting. (It turns out that the average collector will devote an entire year of his life to reading comics; I wonder what he wasted the other sixty-nine years on.) Comics come up in the movie in the person of Elijah Price (Samuel L. Jackson), who suffers from osteogenesis imperfecta, a disease that causes him to have brittle bones. Because he's spent most of his life recuperating from injuries, Elijah had a lot of time to read comics. He owns an art gallery devoted to original art by comic-book artists and has an unusual theory: superheroes live and work among us. Elijah figures that if he can have a disease that makes his body easily broken, then there must be others who are unbreakable.
Security guard David Dunn (Bruce Willis) is unbreakable. At the beginning of the movie, David is the sole survivor of a terrible train wreck. Over a hundred people are killed, but David walks away without a scratch. Based on this, Elijah believes that David is the fulfillment of his theory. David has problems of his own; he's breaking up with his wife Megan (Robin Wright Penn) and trying to maintain a relationship with his son Jeremy (Spencer Treat Clark). So, David resists the idea that he's Superman, until he discovers unusual abilities he never knew he had.
Everyone tries very hard to make this movie fly. Shyamalan pervades every scene with the same subtle creepiness that enriched "The Sixth Sense." His direction shows the same meticulous attention to color, and his script endows the fragile premise with as much realism as he can muster. Willis gives his best performance in awhile. While I found him unconvincing as a shrink in "Sixth Sense," Willis shines as dull-witted characters who are out of their depth (as in "12 Monkeys" and "Pulp Fiction"). David is such a character. (When Elijah inquires if David has ever been sick, David has to ask his boss and his wife to find out that he hasn't.) Jackson is slick and charismatic with an undercurrent of menace. Penn is down-to-earth and genuine. Clark is sweet and likeable.
However, despite the admirable efforts of the director and his cast, "Unbreakable" just can't make its plot work. A major part of the problem is the somber attitude with which Shyamalan approaches his subject. Superheroes can be a lot of fun, but a sober tone robs the concept of its joy and wonder. The movie's website includes a lot of information on real-life unbreakable people, so I assume that Shyamalan shares the theory he puts in Elijah's mouth. Willis recently said that "Unbreakable" was the first chapter in a trilogy. Hope the next two have a sense of humor.
Bottom line: Unbreakable performances, brittle premise.

--- layout: post title: "Day 32 - Bar Brothers Workout" subtitle: "Yesterday I came back late at night and because it was late and gave up training, I also gave up a lunch and went to sleep, today I checked my weight and see what I found out." date: 2019-11-22 background: '/img/posts/intro-barbrothers.png' ---
It's about losing more than a pound, it's great, but in the morning I woke up weak, ate rice with tuna and drank tea with 150m of yogurt.
Today if I have the time to do combined leg training and torso, I have many things to do today, my wife is working and I don't have that time to extend this post.
Hoping to see a big weight loss again after the weekend, at this time it is only half a pound from last week.
Good night.


This was a triumph! I'm making a note here: Huge success! It's hard to overstate my satisfaction. Aperture Science: We do what we must because we can For the good of all of us. Except the ones who are dead. But there's no sense crying over every mistake.  And the science gets done. And you make a neat gun for the people who are still alive.

Reader, you have found again the book you were seeking; now you can pick up the broken thread; the smile returns to your lips. But do you imagine it can go on in this way, this story? No, not that of the novel! Yours! How long are you going to let yourself be dragged passively by the plot? You had flung yourself into the action, filled with adventurous impulses: and then? Your function was quickly reduced to that of one who records situations decided by others, who submits to whims, finds himself involved in events that elude his control.
The following books were constructed in the open ePub format and are available as such. This format is supported by nearly all eReaders. eReading software is available for most platforms: FB Reader is a free and open source option for Android. To view on an iDevice, make sure iBooks is installed. It is possible to download the file on a computer and add it to iTunes, and synch to the iDevice. One can also open the link directly from the device’s browser.
Even if the eBooks were checked for conformance to the ePub standard by using the ‘epubcheck’ software, not all devices support all features: the publications have been tested on an iPad running iOS7.

setscreen ( "graphics" ) % Enter graphics mode
setscreen ( "graphics:400;300" ) % Change window to 400x300
setscreen ( "nocursor" ) % Turn off cursor
setscreen ( "noecho" ) % Do not echo keys
There are two screen modes, text and graphics. In text mode, output to the window is only allowed using put and get. Attempting to use graphics or moving the cursor using locate will result in an error. However, a window in text mode will keep all text output sent to it. Any output that scrolls off the edge of the window can be read by adjusting the scroll bars of the window. Printing a text output window prints all the output sent to the window, not just the output currently visible in the window. Programs often use text mode when they are displaying large amounts of text data that the user may wish to view or print later. Saving the contents of a text output window creates a text file containing all the output sent to the window.
In graphics mode, a program can use both put and get, locate and graphics commands to send output to the window. However, any output that scrolls off the window is lost. Printing the window outputs the current contents of the window. Saving a graphics output window saves the current contents of the window as a BMP file.
Where the options to setscreen are mutually exclusive, they are listed here with the default underlined. Here are the options:
"graphics", "text", Sets the mode of the window to the given mode. A size can for the window can be specified at the same time. If the window mode or size changes, then the window will be cleared.
To specify the size of a window in graphics mode, the graphics can have a modifier in the form "graphics:<width>;<height>". This sets the window to be <width> pixels by <height> pixels in size. The maximum size of a window is the size of the screen.
To specify the size of a window in text mode, the text can have a modifier in the form "text:<rows>;<columns>". This sets the window to be <rows> text lines in height by <columns> characters in width. The maximum size of a window is the size of the screen.
To set a window to the maximum size available on the screen, you can use "max" for the <width>, <height>, <rows> or <columns> parameters.
"cursor", "nocursor" Causes the cursor to be shown (or hidden). The cursor only appears when the program is waiting for keyboard input from the user.
"echo", "noecho" Causes (or suppresses) echoing of characters that are typed. Echoing is commonly turned off in interactive programs to keep typed characters from being echoed at inappropriate places on the screen.
"nooffscreenonly", "offscreenonly" Causes or (suppresses) output from being sent to the visible window. When the offscreenonly option is active, any text and graphics output is drawn to the offscreen buffer that is maintained for every Run window but not drawn to the screen. View.Update is then used to copy the entire contents of the offscreen buffer to the Run window. By allowing numerous drawing commands to be sent to the offscreen buffer and then updating the window at one time, it is possible to get smoother animation.
"msdos", "nomsdos" Causes the window to use the MS-DOS character set (with line drawing characters) instead of the Windows ANSI character set. The "nomsdos" option causes the window to use the Windows ANSI character set. Note that the "msdos" option only works if the Windows font (usually Courier New) supports it.
"buttonbar", "nobuttonbar" Causes or (suppresses) the display of a button bar at the top of the output window which allows the user to easily stop program execution or save and print the output window.

First Marvel comic sets auction record of $1.3 million
WASHINGTON – The first comic book produced by Marvel, the famed U.S. publisher behind Spider-Man, X-Men and The Avengers, went under the hammer Thursday, fetching a record $1.26 million, Heritage Auctions said.
“This is a historic copy of a historic comic book,” Ed Jaster, auction house senior vice president, said of the book, which was published in 1939 by Timely Comics, which later became Marvel.
“Without question, this is the granddaddy of all Marvel Comics, without which we would not have the characters and stories we enjoy in today’s comics and feature films,” Jaster added.
Under the direction of screenwriter Stan Lee, Marvel in the 1960s created superheroes that have become iconic today and whose cinema adaptations have conquered box offices worldwide.
The first copy of Marvel Comics was sold in very good condition and well above the price of 10 cents it fetched back in 1939.
Amazing Fantasy #15, in which Spider-Man first appears, slipped to second-highest Marvel comic ever auctioned, having sold for $1.1 million in 2011.
The most expensive comic book in history remains the first issue of Action Comics published in 1938 in which Superman makes his debut. It sold for $3.2 million in 2014.

Arsenal without Ceballos until mid-December
by BeSoccerUnai Emery has suffered a blow to his hopes of turning Arsenal's form around, learning he will be without Dani Ceballos for the next month.
Arsenal midfielder Dani Ceballos is facing another month on the sidelines due to a hamstring injury.
The Spain playmaker sustained the problem during the 1-1 Europa League draw at Vitoria SC at the start of this month.
Head coach Unai Emery initially referred to that setback as a "small injury" but, in a short injury update posted on their official website ahead of Saturday's Premier League home match against Southampton, Arsenal confirmed damage to Ceballos' left hamstring means he is aiming to return to full training in mid-December.

- Wales, golf, Madrid... in that order
- Luis Enrique returns to Spain national team
The 23-year-old has made 17 appearances in all competitions since moving to Emirates Stadium on a season-long loan from Real Madrid
Emery will assess Sead Kolasinac before the Southampton game after the left-back returned to club duty with a tight left hamstring.
Bosnia-Herzegovina international Kolasinac completed 90 minutes of his country's 3-0 defeat to Italy last Friday but sat out the subsequent win over Liechtenstein by the same scoreline.
Emery finds himself under pressure following a run of four winless matches in the Premier League.


Now that the age of internet is upon us, and cable and satellite have made TV a 24 hour active paradigm, viewers, readers and surfers don't necessarily sit around stuck to one location once they've finished consuming their medium of choice.
Television shows have a finite number of episodes, and when they're out, many channels either fill up the slot with new content, filler, or just play the same episodes over and over again until the new season is ready. When a book is done, there's usually a year or more until the next installment. Web content updates depending on the style of the page.
To drum up excitement and anticipation for the release of new material, popular media will have a New Content Countdown Clock which sits (not at all unobtrusively) in the corner of the screen counting down the hours and minutes until the most anticipated new material.
Particularly egregious cases (at least in the case of TV) will have the clock fixed in place so that it's even present in the corner of the screen during the commercial breaks.
May often appear — on TV at least — at the end of a Theme Week or Marathon.
Sister Trope to Commercial Pop-Up.
Examples:
- Mugglenet has done one for each of the Harry Potter books after the fourth, and all of the movies.
- Bulbapedia has had one of these for the Japanese and English-language releases of every major Pokémon game.
- TFWiki.net has done this for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Dark of the Moon.
- ZeldaWiki did this for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, with separate countdowns for Europe, America, and Australia.
- Equestria Daily has them for season and episode premieres.
- Scified's Godzilla (2014) website had a countdown which ended in the phrase "The King Has Returned".
- There was a website counting down to the Gravity Falls episode "Not What He Seems". It now has a slow-loading image of an in-universe version of Punk'd, since the world didn't actually end during "Not What He Seems," as had been implied within the show and online.
- How I Met Your Mother had a now-defunct site called "Slap Countdown", counting down to the premiere of the Slapsgiving episode.
- Muppet fansite ToughPigs had countdowns for the releases of both The Muppets and Muppets Most Wanted. When The Muppets' return to television was confirmed for September 22, 2015, they put up a Kermit clock counting down to that date.
- Armageddon advertised itself with a series of large billboards with a countdown clock to the release date.
- Barnes and Noble did this with Midnight Sun, the companion the Twilight series, in August 2020.
- ABC did it for V when it returned from its hiatus, and also pissed off Lost fans by showing the clock during their show.
- TNT did this with Leverage.
- USA Network had one for Burn Notice. And every new show that's premiered since.
- Disney Channel did it for, among other things, the High School Musical movies. New movies, big premieres or events or even just theme blocks can also get one. What makes it particularly annoying is that the countdown timer will be HUGE blocking out significant portions of whatever program is actually on, especially and frequently actors' faces.
- A station in Milwaukee counted down the minutes to the Super Bowl during their newscasts when the Packers were in Super Bowl XLV... from the moment they won the NFC Championship. That's 336 hours of countdown time.
- The Colbert Report website used to do this, with the implication that viewers should be literally counting down the seconds until their next chance to see wonderful, wonderful Stephen Colbert.
- During the 2007 writer's strike, NBC became absolutely obsessed with putting text ads above its bug for upcoming programs, and keeping the peacock itself opaque and full-color at all times (going as far as even decorating it with a Santa hat and a party hat for Christmas and New Year's respectively). This type of ad still happens occasionally (for high-profile premieres or the Olympic Games), but at least it's all been translucent now. Many of NBC's cable channels followed its lead with similar forms of advertising.
- AMC Runs one every Sunday to the latest episode of The Walking Dead, during the closing credits of the re-airing of the previous week's episode.
- Creator/BBC America has done countdown clocks for:
- Top Gear's new season.
- Doctor Who's new seasons.
- CNN and MSNBC always do a countdown for a big presidential speech; every news channel will also count down to a "polls close" time (or in other terms, for Curbstomp Battle votes, the time they declare a winner) for an election. And during the campaign, the news channels run countdown clocks to hype up practically every single thing related to it, including debates and town halls they host, countdowns to primary/caucus coverage, and so on.
- When MSNBC put up a clock counting down to the deadline for Saddam Hussein's surrender during the 2003 invasion of Iraq, The Daily Show replied by turning it into a parody of 24 (complete with the ticking sound effect, and Jon Stewart's dismayed reaction to the timer).
- ABC had one counting down to the Royal Wedding of William and Kate.
- At the end of the preceding episode of Stargate SG-1, Sky1 did this for the premiere of Stargate Atlantis. Since they forewent an ad break between the two, and the countdown only occurred over the end credits, nobody minded too much.
- TV Asashi put one of these for the M1 Grandprix, a manzai comedy competition, during the Eye Catch of the Christmas Episode of Star★Twinkle Pretty Cure.
- Taylor Swift tweeted one in the runup to her album Red. First it was daily tweets at the 10-day mark (with an Instagram of the relevant number of something or other — six flowers, perhaps, or seven band members' feet), and then she started making or retweeting hourly updates with one day to go.
- ESPN has done this occasionally with a small strip above their ticker, for things such as the College Football Playoff National Championship, and NBA Finals games on ABC. The latest iteration of their ticker now has a large area off to the side, filled with a cycling slideshow of ads for upcoming events and their app (used in parallel with the aforementioned strip).
- MLB Network put up a somewhat intrusive box above their ticker to advertise the next game they're airing (often with team logos or pictures of the starters). They eventually made a streamlined version that fits into their ticker instead — an example NFL Network also follows for certain content (particularly Thursday Night Football) as well.
- Homestuck had a quasi-example with its End of Act 5 Animation Bump - Andrew Hussie added a progress bar measured in percentage which he continually updated over the months spent working on it, and partway through issued a target release date of October 25 2011. Plenty of countdown clocks ensued on fansites.
- Life In A Day did this on their YouTube channel.
- Comedy Central had one when Futurama was Uncancelled.
- The Mantis-Eye Experiment, a noted fansite of The Venture Bros., featured a countdown clock to the first episode of Season 3 once the schedule was announced.
- Cartoon Network does this religiously. Among the shows given this treatment:
- Ben 10: Alien Force
- The Clone Wars
- The Clone Wars: Secrets Revealed
- The premiere of The Looney Tunes Show
- The season premiere of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated.
- The premiere of Firebreather.
- Both Fionna and Cake specials.
- The Total Drama World Tour premiere and finale. The final five seconds of the countdown even continued after the show.
- Green Lantern: The Animated Series has one for the season proper starting in an episode of Ben 10: Ultimate Alien
- The premiere of Uncle Grandpa.
- The 2014 Powerpuff Girls special.
- The midseason finale for season 1 of Steven Universe: "Mirror Gem" and "Ocean Gem".
- Several special episodes of Teen Titans Go!, with the one for the 200th episode starting two weeks before.
- Generally with a massive counter taking up a quarter of the screen. Who wanted to see that other show, anyway...
- Nickelodeon has done this about as much as CN, such as for the long-awaited final season of Avatar: The Last Airbender (at least in US markets ...the episodes had aired and the DVDs gone onsale elsewhere). They've also counted down to special events such as the Kids Choice Awards.
- Nicktoons has done it for the anticipated first episode of Dragon Ball Z Kai.
- Nicktoons flashed an occasional one to remind viewers of the new Merchandise-Driven Zevo-3 series in the days leading up to its October 2010 premiere.
- The now-defunct WBKids did the website variation for the premiere of Loonatics.
- The Hub had a countdown for, among other things, every new episode of Transformers: Prime.
- My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic has this webpage.
- Shops will often do this for when a big product is coming out, such as a video game - often they'll keep a constant clock in the window and just change the images whenever it needs to.
- ESPN's main buildings will have these for major sports events, such as the Olympics or the World Cup.
- When Y2K mania was happening, manufacturers sold clocks three years in advance counting down to the new millennium which blinked on and off once the moment came. Thankfully most of them functioned as regular clocks after that date.

A Stellar Coding Adventure
Oct. 5: Arrays, Hashes and Other Cute Cuddly Concepts
The Ruby portion of my initiation has commenced, and I do feel like this is a death march. While I am learning and re-learning a metric ton of new things, I have the depressing feeling that nothing will really stick in my head and that Ruby will remain as abtruse and out-of-reach as a line of Egyptian hieroglyphs.
But I see that I am yet again expected to don my thinking hat and explain the mysteries of an age-old dilemma:
Arrays or Hashes?
Arrays are ordered collections of objects. They are indexed starting at the rather startling number of... 0, because a long time ago mathematicians decided that was sexier than counting like everybody else.
Meanhwile, a Hash is a list of keys to which values are attached. Indexing is done not by integers but by those keys, which dictate the order in which objects are ordered.
Examples, examples:
A typical array would be the first four letters of the Western alphabet. It is an orderly collection of objects that have a specific place. Let's call that array alpha_letters.
alpha_letters = [A, B, C, D]
But let's imagine that there is a hash using these same letters, except this time we are at the Rugby World Cup (http://www.rugbyworldcup.com/pools) and there are five countries attached to each of these letters!
So for the letter A we have: Australia, England, Wales, Fiji, Uruguay, which form Pool A.
For Pool B South Africa, Samoa, Scotland, Japan and the United States.
For Pool C, New Zealand, Argentina, Tonga, Georgia and Namibia.
As for Pool D, it is led by my favorite team, France, along with Ireland, Italy, Canada and Romania.
So in effect, if I were to call up teams ['D'], I would get: France, Ireland, Italy, Canada, Romania.
To give you a nicer viw, why not decide to pair each letter with the leader of the corresponding pool? We would get this:
pool_leaders = {
A => "Australia",
B => "South Africa",
C => "New Zealand",
D => "France"
}
Here the key "A" corresponds to "Australia," D to France etc. We can also keep the full roster of teams associated with each letter. But, you ask, why is this important?
Well, even in the simple context of the Rugby World Cup, knowing each team's pool is vital to the elimination phase of the tournament. The first quarterfinals will pit the winner of Pool B with the runner-up of Pool A. The winner of Pool C will meet the runner-up of Pool D, and so on. Hence the usefulness of collecting objects in key-value pairs.
I think these examples will make the difference between arrays and hashes a wee bit more understandable and make it easier to manipulate each object collection.

About Us
Wikipedia is an online free-content encyclopedia project helping to create a world in which everyone can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. It is supported by the Wikimedia Foundation and based on a model of openly editable content. The name "Wikipedia" is a blending of the words wiki (a technology for creating collaborative websites, from the Hawaiian word wiki, meaning "quick") and encyclopedia. Wikipedia's articles provide links designed to guide the user to related pages with additional information
Since its creation on January 15, 2001, Wikipedia has grown into the world's largest reference website, attracting 1.5 billion unique visitors monthly as of March 2020. It currently has more than 55 million articles in more than 300 languages, including 6,185,576 articles in English with 130,385 active contributors in the past month
Anyone is allowed to add or edit words, references, images and other media here. What is contributed is more important than who contributes it. To remain, the content must be free of copyright restrictions and contentious material about living people. It must fit within Wikipedia's policies, including being verifiable against a published reliable source. Editors' opinions and beliefs and unreviewed research will not remain. Contributions cannot damage Wikipedia because the software allows easy reversal of mistakes and many experienced editors are watching to ensure that edits are improvements. Begin by simply clicking the Edit button at the top of any editable page!
Wikipedia is a live collaboration differing from paper-based reference sources in important ways. It is continually created and updated, with articles on new events appearing within minutes, rather than months or years. Because everybody can help improve it, Wikipedia has become more comprehensive than any other encyclopedia. Besides quantity, its contributors work on improving quality, removing or repairing misinformation and other errors. Over time, articles tend to become more comprehensive and balanced. However, because anyone can click "edit" at any time and add content, any article may contain undetected misinformation, errors, or vandalism. Readers who are aware of this can obtain valid information, avoid recently added misinformation (see Wikipedia:Researching with Wikipedia), and fix the article.

The goal of this step-by-step tutorial is to walk you through the process of sketching out a simple business plan. The guide consits of the following steps:
The first step for any business that wants to make a profit is to purchase the assets that will generate revenues. Let's do it for our business: go to the Balance Sheet tab and click the Edit button.
Once you clicked the Edit button, cells will become editable. Let's say that the equipment that your business needs costs $80000 and that you want to spend $10000 each year on building your brand via advertising and PR.
So, let's enter the $80000 asset in the Property, plant and equipment row and $10000, $20000 etc. in the Goodwill row. When you're ready, click the Done button.
As you are editing the business plan, you will see that some fields are automatically updating. For now, you can ignore most of them but notice how the Accumulated depreciation/amortization is calculated for you automatically. The rate at which your equipment depriciates each year can be set on the Settings tab along with a bunch of other constants. For now, leave the constants at their default values.
Now that your business has assets, it is time to estimate your sales. Let's say that in the first year, your business will sell $240000 worth of goods, and - due to your successful marketing efforts - this number will grow by $20000 each year. Let's put these numbers into our business plan.
Go to the Income Statement tab, click the Edit button and enter 240000, 260000, 280000, 300000 and 320000 in the Net Sales row.
At this point, our business is creating revenues. That's awsome but we haven't estimated our costs yet. Let's go ahead and do it.
Let's assume that the cost of manufacturing each item we sell is 1/4 of its sales price and that your business will employ 3 people: a manager and two more employees. The manager's annual salary is $60000, those of the employees are $35000 each. Let's not forget the $10000 yearly cost that you will spend on building your brand.
On the Income Statement tab, click the Edit link and enter
Notice, that the Gross profit, the Total Operating Expenses and the Operating Income is calculated automatically as you enter the costs.
The next step is to plan how you will finance your business. Let's say that you want to finance half of your equipment from a bank loan which you want to pay back in equal amounts till the end of your planning period. Go to the Balance Sheet tab, click the Edit button and enter 40000, 30000, 20000 and 10000 for the first 4 years in the Long-term debt row.
Notice, how the Interest expense (along with Tax) is calculated for you in the Income Statement.
At this point, the good news is that the Net Income is positive for all years which means that our business is profitable. To plan the rest of the financing, the Cash Flow tab will be of great help. So, let's have a look at the Cash Flow:
In the first year, $18000 of financing is missing. Let's say that we want to have about $20000 of cash on our bank account in the first year; just to make sure that if any unexpected expenditure occurs we don't run out of cash. To achive this, $40000 of capital will have to be provided upon founding the company. So let's go to the Balance Sheet tab and enter $40000 in the Common stock and other paid-in capital row.
The final step is to plan how much dividends can be paid and when. From the investors point of view the more and the sooner the better. The upper limit is that the payouts shouldn't put the company at the risk of running out of cash. Let's go to the Income Statement tab and enter 15000, 25000, 40000 and 55000 starting from the second year in the Dividends row.
Notice, how what is not paid out from the Net Income is added to the Retained earnings row in the Balance Sheet each year.
Now, that your Business Plan is ready, click the Check button to see if you made any mistakes. If you did everything right you should get a Success message.
As a last step, let's examine how much the business is worth. To do that, go to the Valuation tab. From the investors' point of view, the business will generate cash flows in the form of
If these values are discounted with the opportunity cost of capital and the initial investment is substracted, the net present value of the business can be calculated. This then can be used as a go-ahead criterion: if the NPV is greater than 0 then - from a financial point of view - the investment should be given a green light.
Another useful metric is the internal rate of return (IRR). The IRR equals the discount factor at which the NPV of the investment would be zero.
You can save the plan that you have created using the Save button at the upper right corner or you can download it from here.


2K's Social Media Accounts Have Been Hacked, Posted Some Bad Stuff
by Luke PlunkettPublisher 2K have suffered quite the security breach , as pretty much every aspect of their social media presence, from Twitter to Facebook, have been hacked, with those responsible posting their own ramblings across the accounts.
While 2K have now regained control over many of those accounts, some – like the company’s Facebook page – are still hosting the intrusive comments from earlier in the evening.
Some of the pages/accounts affected were 2K’s main company Facebook page, the twitter account of NBA 2K’s Ronnie 2K and the official Borderlands account, with many of the same messages appearing across all of them at once:
Good to know, Borderlands. While those comments seem harmless, others were less so, like some using racist terms that I’m not going to repeat here.
Video game industry employees having their social media accounts hacked is nothing new – only this week we reported about some FIFA staff members suffering the same fate – but I’ve never seen something on this scale before. For all of 2K’s accounts to have been vulnerable at once, from Facebook to Twitter, seems crazy.
Now’s as good a time as any to remind you all to enable two-factor authentication on your social media accounts. Especially anyone reading who works at 2K.


--- layout: post title: "FluentValidation 3.2 Available" ---
FluentValidation 3.2 is now available for download.
This is a maintenance release that addresses a couple of bugs from FluentValidation 3.1:


Any time that a character uses something of high value/importance/ridiculousness instead of toilet paper, this trope applies, whether they:
- are forced to use the substitute due to there not being any toilet paper,
- prefer to use it instead (perhaps due to it being softer), or
- mistakenly use it.
No, tissue paper and paper towels are not of high value.
This is often played for comedy, and is likely Older Than Print in real life (due to prehistoric substitutes).

Examples:

Anime & Manga
- JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders: Joseph once found a desert toilet where there was no water or paper and he'd have to clean himself entirely with sand. He decides to hold off until they reach a hotel. This is Truth in Television, as described below in the Real Life folder.
Comic Books
- In the first album from the Belgian comic series ORPHANIMO!!, in order to make it clear to Vallalkozo's representative that they don't intend to sell their house, the Orphans show him that they are using the contract he sent them earlier as toilet paper.
- When the sheriff tickets a local antigovernment militiaman for trespassing in Revival, this is the militiaman's response with the ticket.
Comic Strips
Film - Live Action
- In Demolition Man, toilet paper has been replaced with three seashells, which are Noodle Implements to John Spartan In-Universe. He ends up just using the Swear Jar machine to get fine tickets and uses them.
"So much for the seashells."
- In Dances with Wolves, some illiterate soldiers find Dunbar's journal (which would have verified his story) and use it as toilet paper.
- In the 1980's film Heaven Help Us, a student runs out of toilet paper and has to use his homework as toilet paper.
- In Step Brothers, when Brennan is using the toilet, he runs out of toilet paper and he resorts to using his toilet rug and his sink to clean himself. The next day, he buys a huge amount of toilet paper.
- In Dunkirk, Tommy's response to the German leaflets demanding surrender is to collect them to use as toilet paper. Unfortunately, he's forced to hold it in to escape a German ambush. We never find out if Tommy ever did get to take a dump in the entire movie.
Game Shows
- QI spent a question debating what people used before the invention of toilet paper. The Roman solution of sponges on sticks was covered, as was the fact the dock leaf is one of the largest, softest and most forgiving examples of British flora. But the prize had to go to the neck of a freshly slaughtered goose. Not the whole bird and certainly not the head and beak. Just the neck, said to be soft and smooth and gentle and certainly cleansing.
Jokes
- Old joke: A bear and a rabbit are taking a dump together.  The rabbit says no, so the bear grabs the rabbit and wipes himself with it.
- A common online comic / photo manipulation is depict a president one considers having been disrespectful of the Constitution using it as toilet paper. Here is one example.

- In Maskerade, after Nanny Ogg makes them stop the coach while she goes in the bushes, she asks Granny Weatherwax to find her some dock plants. Granny is confused as to why she's collecting herbs at a time like this until Nanny explains that she just wants some broad leaves.
- In The Truth, Harry King (Ankh-Morpork's waste disposal king) tells William that the Ankh-Morpork Times generally gets reprocessed as lavatory paper, although he personally doesn't see the need to reprocess it first.
- In Monstrous Regiment a voice from the privy asks Polly if she has a piece of paper. She hands over the propaganda leaflet she's been given, as probably the best use for it.
- In M.Y.T.H. Inc. in Action Guido and Nunzio are trying to sabotage a country's war effort by working in the logistics section and doing things like sending a load of propaganda leaflets to a unit that was short on toilet paper.
- In Ptolemy's Gate from The Bartimaeus Trilogy, John Mandrake / Nathaniel in his work for the government has put out a number of pamphlets full of government puffery and lies called Real War Stories. During a meeting of commoners to discuss the government's outrages, a tavern-keeper comments that he's made a point to collect as many of them as possible, and when he is chastised for this, says that he's proud to do so and that if anyone visits the bathroom after the meeting is over, they'll see ample proof of their usefulness.
 Not out of contempt but because nothing else was available. Her thoughts towards the Fuhrer were rather unpleasant given how hard and rough the card was.
- In another novel, the German soldiers get hold of a megaphone and use it to insult their Russian opponents across No Mans Land.
"Russki tovarisch!  Come over to us and we'll show you how to do it with niiicce sooooft shithouse paper!"- This is the reaction of the men when they're parachuted a cargo container while starving in Stalingrad, only to find it only contains hundreds of photos of Der Fuhrer.
- Sleeping Beauties: After the Bright Ones Cult is arrested and their compound abandoned, a few pages of their new nation's Constitution are scattered by the wind and end up pinned to cactuses. A graduate student hiking in the area comes across them, and since she has to take a dump badly she happily uses the pages as toilet paper.
- Congo Mercenary, by 'Mad' Mike Hoare. The mercenaries overrun the base of a Rebel Leader and Hoare is assured that it's been thoroughly searched for anything of intelligence value. Hoare is not impressed when he subsequently discovers some top secret papers have been used for toilet purposes by his men. He gives the task of cleaning it up to one of his officers who, needless to say, is not pleased.
Live Action TV
- M*A*S*H. In "Crisis," among the supply shortage the 4077th is faced with is lack of toilet paper - doubled with wood shortage for fire, prompting camp personnel to scrounge as best they can; Henry, at one point, uses a drawing one of his kids sent him.
- In Blackadder Goes Forth, Captain Blackadder considers this to be the best way the British army's newspaper can improve the morale of the troops.
- In Malcolm in the Middle, Malcolm's older brother had to use a Spiderman Comic page as toilet paper since his parents wouldn't let him have any more.
- Monsignor Renard. The title character is found with German propaganda leaflets on his person and is accused of being a subversive. He explains he kept them for toilet purposes. "It seemed appropriate."
- In a 1979 episode of You Can't Do That on Television, network executive Mr. Dime had to use 100 dollar bills when in the washroom due to running out of TP during a segment taking place between skits.
- Discussed in an episode of Law & Order when Detective Lupo discloses how he took care of business while assigned to Afghanistan: "A little bowl of water and my left hand."
Video Games
- In Super Paper Mario, one level in Chapter 4 requires you to hunt down an ancient parchment, so that you can give it to Fleep to wipe himself down.
- Twice in the Deponia series.
- In Chaos On Deponia, Rufus goes into a dark toilet, and mistakenly uses a coupon with Braille on it as toilet paper.
- In Goodbye Deponia, the time traveller in the toilet finds the toilet paper far too rough and asks for a replacement from Rufus. Rufus gives him a large wad of cash.
- The Legend of Zelda:
- In The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask there's a being who lives in a toilet for reasons best not explored. If you approach at night, it will reach out a hand and ask for paper. There are several pieces of paper Link can acquire through the game, and any will work, earning a reward of a Piece of Heart at the expense of whatever quest the paper was meant for.
- The above is referenced in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword with a female ghost who lives in a bathroom and will ask for paper if visited at night. In this case, the only option is a love letter meant to be given to another character, and if you give it to the ghost she'll become infatuated with the sender and haunt him.
Web Video
- When The Spoony Experiment reviewed the Licensed Game of Demolition Man, he ended the video using the Instruction Manual.
Western Animation
- Two examples from Family Guy:
- In season 2 "There's Something About Paulie", while Peter is using the toilet, a member of the Mafia appears to tell him that he has to see the Don to repay his favor. When Peter realizes that he's out of toilet paper, he uses an Entertainment Weekly magazine as a substitute.
- In season 8, "Spies Reminiscent of Us", when Peter tries to use the bathroom in Cleveland's abandoned house, he finds out there's no toilet paper. Peter runs offscreen to Joe's house and asks him if he can borrow something from him, Joe allows it, unaware of what Peter is doing. When he runs back onscreen into Cleveland's house, he's carrying the American flag.
- In The Fairly OddParents, "Wishology", when Mr. & Mrs. Turner and Crocker are going to the KISS concert, they stopped along the way to use the bathroom in the middle of the desert. Since none of them brought toilet paper with them on the trip, they instead use a cactus to wipe themselves, which they immediately regretted.
- Futurama: Due to this trope, Dr. Zoidberg has controlling interest in Planet Express.
Leela: Zoidberg owned 51% of the company?Hermes: The shares were worthless, and he kept asking for toilet paper!
- On The Simpsons an internet cartoon company that publishes Bart's web show "Angry Dad" pays him in stock instead of money, dispensing it off a toilet paper roll.
- On episode of The Ren & Stimpy Show had Ren avoiding a salve salesman. At the end, he's in the bathroom and the toilet paper roll is empty, so he has no choice but to buy some salve to clean himself.
Real Life
- Mostly averted in real life, since many people have learned to either carry around tissues with ourselves or to check for toilet paper before sitting down. Or both. On the other hand, people are starting to use flushable wipes, which are quite a lot more expensive than toilet paper, and more damaging to sewers...
- Note that using any paper but toilet paper is strongly discouraged. Toilet paper is designed to be much softer, degradable, and more pliable than even paper towels. Anything else can clog the plumbing.
- In some countries, it's common to use other methods instead of toilet paper. For example, in some Asian countries, it's common to wash your bottom with water (from a bucket or a bidet) and your hands. It's also not unheard of in other places (like in the middle-of-nowhere Egypt, as some Jojos Bizarre Adventure fans may know) to use soil or sand because the soil/sand there is so hot and barren that it's sterile. And of course, there's using leaves or other plant matter... and historically, there's also rubbing your anus on the edge of a stick.
- In the First World War soldiers couldn't leave the trenches because they would be shot by the other side. They were forced to go to the bathroom in their trenches. They ran out of so many substitutes for toilet paper that they were forced to use their hands.
- QI spent a question debating what people used before the invention of toilet paper. The Roman solution of sponges on sticks was covered, as was the fact the dock leaf is one of the largest, softest and most forgiving examples of British flora. But the prize had to go to the neck of a freshly slaughtered goose. Not the whole bird and certainly not the head and beak. Just the neck, said to be soft and smooth and gentle and certainly cleansing.
- In a 1980s interview the members of Van Halen mention that when they were young struggling musicians in NYC they didn't have money for toilet paper so they used a map of New York instead. Their landlord was not happy.
- In 2012, a photograph of English footballer Liam Ridgewell on the toilet was leaked of him wiping his backside with £20 notes, allegedly winding up a friend whom he won a bet against.
- Invoked in an anecdote attributed to Tallulah Bankhead. Tallulah to the woman in the next stall: "Dahling, do you have any paper?" Woman: "I'm afraid not." Tallulah: "Well then dahling, do you have two fives for a 10?"

About Me
Random Facts About Me in List Form
- I try my best to spend time with family and friends and maintain a positive outlook on life.
- I've fallen in love with everything data structures and problem solving. I may be getting stuck on LC easy's right now, but ask me how I'm doing 1 year from now ;).
- My favorite instrument in the world is the saxophone, but I haven't played it in years (I'd love to get back to playing jazz music again).
- I'm a news junkie - I love loading up on any and all news related to foreign policy, economics, sports, global affairs/security, technology, and more.
- My go-to sources for news are the New York Times, The Atlantic, Huffington Post, Business Insider, Gizmodo, Wired, The Economist, Wall Street Journal, ESPN, SilverScreenAndRoll,
Deadspin, Lifehacker, Reddit, Rolling Stone, and The New Yorker.
- Sometimes, as evidenced above, I have a habit of reading news articles for hours instead of going out and simply living life.
- My favorite programming language is Java. It may be verbose and at times clunky (who doesn't love generics?), but as someone who uses a mechanical keyboard and loves the sound of the clicking and clacking of keys, Java can't be beat.
- My day-to-day involves working in SQL and Excel. I love everything about databases and data and if I could have a career working purely with SQL, I'd jump on it without hesitation.
- One of my favorite restaurants is Buca Di Beppo. Large portions, white cheese pizza, and complimentary bread - it can't be beat.
- My favorite sport in the world is basketball, and I'm a die-hard Lakers fan, ever since the Kobe-Shaq championship years. Can't wait to see the Lebron-AD pick and rolls this year.
- I'm not a fan of horror movies (hate them), but I'll watch them occasionally just to give my courage a bit of a pop-quiz, so to speak.
- My favorite food in the world is ramen, followed by soba and bean and cheese burritos. The simple life is often the best life.
- Prior to graduating from college, I took a year off to write for Business Insider (as well as write for Affairs Today, a global student-run news site that had a good readership but is now unfortunately defunct).
- Favorite type of tea? Green tea, hands down.
- After I retire, I would love to spend the rest of my life reading and writing as many books, articles, and stories as time will allow.

Thanks for checking out our project! If you haven’t already, please check out the readme for general info about this project.
All contributors will be expected to follow our code of conduct.
If you’re not a member of the Weecology lab, we ask that you use one of the following two methods for contributing:
Create an issue – if you spot any typos, bugs, or have general suggestions, etc. You can also use this to participate in ongoing discussions. For more info, please check out this Github guide.
Fork and create a pull request – if you have suggested bugfixes or changes. For more info, please check out this Github guide. We ask that you follow our guidelines below on documentation and testing.
If you’re actively working on this repo, then you should have write access. For anything beyond a minor change to documentation or coding files, please create a branch for any new features or bugfixes and create a pull request when you’d like your work to be merged in.
If you don’t have write access and you would like to, please contact @gmyenni for access.
If you are contributing code to this project, you generally don’t need any additional packages, since the documentation will be written as comments in the R scripts. If you are also building the package, see the section below for more details.
In most cases, you’ll be creating a new function and then documenting it. You can check the existing functions for examples, but here’s a basic template:
#' @title {this is the heading for the help file}
#'
#' @description {A description of the function}
#'
#' @param {name of a function argument} {what the argument does}
#' @return {what is returned from the function}
#' @examples
#' {R code that is an example use of the function}
#' @export
#'
newfunc <- function() ...
Note that you can also include links to other functions, math formatting, and more. For more details, see the chapter on documentation in Hadley Wickham’s book for R packages.
If you are adding new functionality, please include automated tests to verify that some of the basic functionality is correct.
Automated testing uses R scripts, that live in the tests/testthat/
subfolder for the package. If you are adding a new file, please name it as test-{concept}.R
.
As a general rule, you don’t need to test all possible inputs and outputs for a function, but you should test some important aspects:
You can see the existing tests as examples of how to organize your tests, but note that there are several different kinds of expect_
functions that test for different things. For more details, see the chapter on testing in Hadley Wickham’s book for R packages.
To fully build the package, including documentation, running-tests, you will need the roxygen2
, testthat
, devtools
, pkgdown
, and usethis
R packages.
Specific operations are then done by calling the appropriate functions from within R, while your working directory is somewhere in the package folder.
The suggested workflow is:
usethis::use_package("package name")
. This will modify the documentation on this package accordingly. If you are adding a dependency to a package that is NOT on CRAN, use usethis::use_dev_package("package name")
instead.devtools::document()
to generate the documentation files and update the NAMESPACE
file.devtools::install()
to install the new version of the package.devtools::test()
to run the test scripts on the new version of the package.pkgdown::build_site()
to update the pkgdown site built from the documentation.If you are also prepping the package as a whole, then you will also want to run devtools::check()
and/or devtools::check_cran()
to make sure that the package is complete.
For more info, see the GitHub repo for the devtools
package.

Fortnite ‘Trick Shot’ hidden T location
by Jimmy RussoFortnite Chapter 2 week 7 is here. Take a look at the hidden ‘T’ location in the ‘Trick Shot’ loading screen.
We’re now into week 7 of Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 1. The challenges are still a few hours away at the time of writing, but we already have a heads up on what’s to come.
This week, we’ll be searching for the hidden T location in the Trick Shot loading screen. Here’s a guide if you’re having trouble finding it.
Hidden ‘T’ location
The ‘T’ in the Trick Shot loading screen isn’t too difficult to spot if you look closely enough. It’s sitting under the bridge behind our two characters who are about to square off. Here’s the exact location of the hidden ‘T’.
On the map, you can find the hidden ‘T’ on the river just north of Weeping Woods. There’s a bridge heading out of the POI. You can land there or cross it and will find the ‘T’ hiding on the second layer.
This bridge is likely familiar to most Fortnite players. Here’s a video from niitq on YouTube if you want to be taken straight to where you need to go.
Now that you’ve collected the hidden ‘T’, you’re one step closer to unlocking the secret skin for Fortnite Chapter 2. Here are our other guides if you’re still struggling to find all of the letters.:
- Hidden F location in Fortnite ‘New World’ loading screen
- Fortnite Hidden O location in ‘Open Water’ loading screen
- Fortnite Forged in Slurp guide: hidden R location
- Fortnite hidden ‘T’ location in the ‘Dockyard Deal’ loading screen
- Fortnite ‘The Lowdown’ guide: Search the hidden ‘N’ location
- Fortnite hidden ‘I’ location in the ‘Hide and Seek’ loading screen
Happy searching!


about duane
Duane spent ten long, gruelling years climbing the corporate ladder in the IT industry. He was good at what he did. Damn good. He had great communication skills and interfaced well with people. He got results for both clients and colleagues alike.
But it just wasn’t enough. He wasn’t satisfied. He wasn’t happy. Something was missing. Something creative.
With a newfound joy kindled in his heart and a willingness to subsist on little more than cup noodles and coffee for the next few years Duane turned his back on a life of opulence and success and dived headfirst into a Bachelor of Animation at Griffith University. Animation, 3D modelling and entertainment had been his passions for as long as he could remember. What greater challenge could there be than proving himself in this arena!
With honed skills in character and environmental modelling and a knack for 3D animation, Duane now looks forward to bringing together both old and new skillsets to help others realise their own dreams and make the power of imagination tangible!

ParcelReceiver.handleParcel(ParcelCarrier)
method.
When posting or sending, you can either allow the object to be processed as soon as the looper queue is ready to do so, or specify a delay before it gets processed or absolute time for it to be processed. The latter two allow you to implement timeouts, ticks, and other timing-based behavior.

I had been smoking weed for just under a year, and had had good and bad experiences, but mainly good ones. I always was the one who paid for the herb, since I have such a good job for a high school student, so I always had money. But, that wasn't to say that I liked paying for it. I was always looking for good deals on good bud, so that I didn't have to spend so much money. Well, one night at work one of my co-workers told me that he could get me a quarter of dank for only $25. So, I said that I wanted to buy some from him, and the next night I went out to the middle of the ghetto to wait in his car while he went inside his dealers house to pick up the bud.
It looked like schwag, but he insisted that it was good, high grade stuff, the stuff that he smoked every day. Well, the several plans that I had fell through that night, so I decided to call up one of my friends and see if he wanted to try out this new weed with me. He naturally wanted to, so I went and picked him up.
As I drove, he packed the first bowl, and began to smoke.
[Erowid Note: It is extremely dangerous and irresponsible to drive while under the influence of a psychoactive substance. Don't do it!] We smoked 3 or 4 bowls before going to a local neighborhood under construction to park and smoke some more (there were not many people living there so it was a good smoke spot that many people went to). Well, after a slow onset, I realized that I was really stoned when we finally got there and parked the car. My friend, being a major stoner, said that he was not very high. He got out of the car to smoke a cigarette, but I stayed in the car because at this point I was starting to feel strange, unlike the normal high that I usually get.  It was not a weed high at all, but something very different.
All of a sudden I was totally out of it, and couldn't think straight at all. Nothing made sense and I felt like my brain could not think about anything, but all that I could do was see whatever I was looking at. I didn't have any thoughts going on in my head, which was really scary because it felt like I was dead. I got out of the car and just started to walk around, but it was more of a stumbled drunk walk. This part was weird because I don't even really remember getting out of the car to walk around. But, I remember being on my feet one moment, then the next moment I was on the ground. I had lost consciousness for a split second and fallen down on the ground, hitting my head against the pavement, but I didn't feel anything. The severely messed up feeling that I had kept getting more intense, and I just laid on the ground for about a minute. My friend asked what I was doing, and all I said was 'this stuff is laced man.'
I got up off the ground and walked to my car where I started to sweat like I've never sweated before, and my body temperature rose about 10 degrees. I was so hot and sweating so much I didn't know what was happening to me. The incredibly messed up feeling that I had started to go down, and about 5 minutes after I had been what I describe as being hit by a ton of bricks, I felt the original high again. This was maybe the 5 scariest minutes of my life, and I don't know what had happened to me. I told my friend what happened, and he insisted that it was not laced. In fact, he said that he wasn't very high at all, and said that the stuff we smoked was schwag, and was not very good.
The next day at work I told my friend who had sold it to me what happened, and he just looked at me like I was crazy. When I told him that my other friend whom I had smoked it with had said it was schwag, he just told me that it was not schwag, but was some good high grade, and he kept insisting that it was good stuff.
I don't know what was the deal with that weed, but I'll never buy stuff from a source that I don't know again. My experience taught me that I need to be more careful when im experimenting, and that it can be fun, but it can also be dangerous, and I need to take all the precautions necesary to make sure that I don't hurt myself.
